Which means that the Judicial branch has more power than the other two branches, combined.

Congress has the power to restrict the jurisdiction of the federal courts. Perhaps the GOP House and Senate should vote for a bill eliminating immigration and naturalization from the jurisdiction of the courts.

This is a problem which has no simple solution. Only the integrity of the highest judges prevents a Venezuela style takeover, except by a junta of black robed tyrants instead of a single strongman. Should the Supremes rule a certain law unconstitutional even if that decision contradicts the plain reading of the document, they could just as easily rule an amendment to overrule them unconstitutional.

Once the ends start to justify the means, the actor has started down a dangerous path that likely leads to armed conflict. We’ve actually begun town that road with the court overreaching, but so far cooler heads have prevailed.
