Putting up a monument in his own courthouse was within Judge Moore's jurisdiction, so to speak.

Its not "his" courthouse.

Whether it is "his" courthouse, more precisely the degree to which the Chief Justice has administrative authority over it, is again a question of Alabama law with which the U.S. Constitution does not concern itself.

Those who want to make a federal case out of every wrong (if any there be here) are gradually turning the States into mere useless appendages, sucking down tax dollars and wasting them in endless consultations with multiple agencies all seeking control over everything. This is not the design of the Founders, and it is not good government.
