I mean, it doesn’t really say that but it is now the law of the land anyway.
In my lay person opinion, they wrote the decision to get the result they wanted.
Which during questioning seemed to be:
1)they don’t want the states to do it because of the potential consequences
2)they don’t want to decide each case themselves (the SC)
3) they don’t want the Federal Court circuits to decide since it would filter up to the SC (see 2)
So according to the majority the only body left to decide is congress. Which of course has the consequence of ensuring it will never actually be done.
So if you want to do an insurrection in the US, just make sure to have a personality cult built up around you and enough members of Congress living in fear of you and your violent supporters to stop congress ever enacting consequences for your failed attempts.

Do you really want SCROTUS deciding things?
In a functioning system a judicial branch is important. In this system? No more than they do apparently.
