but I can't recall the Congress having exercised the right.

ex parte McCardle should refresh your recollection.

So it seems.

OK. So Congress hasn't seen fit to challenge the Court for 135 years. That's a long time. As Congress seems to have forgotten how to do it and as they seldom bother to read the Constitution themselves, somebody ought to point out the obvious to them.

Now the Court is in the full fledged business of legislating their druthers from the bench and has been for years, it is time for Congress to get busy nosing into what the Court feels is now it's business and not the business of Congress, or the States, or - Heaven forbid - the people!

Maybe it's time to defund these punks?
