2005 SCOTUS Medical Marijuana case. In that decision, the SCOTUS seemed to grant the FedGov license to regulate ANYTHING that MIGHT cross state lines as 'interstate commerce'...whether it actually crossed or not.
Wickard v. Filburn (1942) was far broader than that, allowing Congress to regulate anything that "affected" anything that might be involved in interstate commerce. That is the linchpin of all federal regulation and nanny-state tyranny.
