Yes, I, too, am fascinated by the sudden conversion of the Right to old school, William Jennings Bryan anti-court populism.

Back we go to Bryan's spokesman of 1912:

THE RIGHT OF THE PEOPLE TO RULE
by Theodore Roosevelt
March 20, 1912, Carnegie Hall, New York City

.... The only tyrannies from which men, women, and children are suffering in real life are the tyrannies of minorities. If the majority of the American people were in fact tyrannous over the minority, if democracy had no greater self-control than empire, then indeed no written words which our forefathers put into the Constitution could stay that tyranny.

Actually, Scalia is saying quite the opposite of Roosevelt in 1912, and, unlike Mark Levin, Scalia doesn't offer Roosevelt's panaceas of direct democracy and judicial limitations.

It's fascinating to watch.

I always thought of Thomas, rather than Scalia, of advocating more of a Lochner-era interprative style.
