The Constitution also does NOT give the Supreme Court the authority to overrule a properly passed law. That is action the Court arrogated to itself. But if the Court did determine to wade into the business of either House, It’s likely those Justices who voted in contravention to the rulemaking abilities of those bodies would find themselves up on impeachment charges and likely removed.

Well, no, not really. It’s just that many, many times they’ve been mistaken about that “properly” part.
