    Legally even that is pretty dubious. Didn’t they just randomly give themselves that power once and we all agreed to let them have it?

      It is true that the Constitution does not explicitly grant SCOTUS the power of judicial review. SCOTUS granted itself that power in Marbury v Madison, which was 225+ years ago

      Libs should bring that up more often tbh. As should textualists, tbh
