No, the Constitution never gave legislative power to the judicial branch. SCOTUS power is constitutionally limited to individual cases and controversies and the scope of its authority is limited to the parties in that case and may serve as precedent for other cases with the same parties, facts, or questions of law. SCOTUS cannot constitutionally make national law. Constitutionally only Congress can make national law. The unconscionable and unconstitutional expansion of SCOTUS power is a PERVERSION of the constitution forced upon us by the Left.

Texas has every right to nullify and reject this decision. You’ve gotta take it step by step. Prior to the Civil War, the South erred when it seceded prior to petitioning and documenting their grievances for the feds and the world to see regarding federal unconstitutional federal action (there hadn’t been any such action yet taken - the South seceded in anticipation of such action).

Start with state nullification of unconstitutional federal acts and decisions as this one is. Next is the feds cutting off funding to the state which would be a favor to the state if the state could only see that financial independence would be a great blessing as it was at America’s founding. See what happens next. Maybe secession, maybe not, maybe shots fired and war breaking out, maybe not. One thing for sure - freedom from tyranny is worth fighting and dying for.

Well said. Too bad that brilliant insight is never uttered by the State run media or for that matter talk radio.
