The irony is that the Constitution as written created no Supreme Court power of “judicial review”, etc. Chief Justice John Marshall arrogated the power, and no one stopped him.
True. Congress was a mess even back then.
Another question would be, where in the Constitution is the Supreme Court given the authority to amend the Constitution?
SCOTUS opinions are not valid when they add to or take away from the Constitution. That can only be done by a Constitutional Amendment.
