Lee says Supreme Court effectively rewrote the individual mandate as a tax, vs a penalty which is how Congress wrote it.

The tax language did not originate in the House or the senate, but by five judges. This was a lawless act. This was a sad, shameful moment when they took the mantle of a super-legislative body which it is not.

Nice smackdown by Lee. He should make it personal and call out Roberts, personally.

Which is exactly what happened.

In My mind, the law should have had to go back to the House.

I really got a lot out of his explanation of how the Supreme Court usurped power. Very clearly stated- excellent!
