Excerpt:
"You have heard the phrase, court of last resort? The Supreme Court was never intended to be that. At least, not by the man who wrote the Declaration of Independence and probably also not by the man who was largely responsible for drafting the Bill of Rights. Those men were Thomas Jefferson and George Mason, respectively.

Jefferson thought there ought to be other resorts – such as nullification (by the states, by which he meant the people) of edicts that were deemed insufferable (as well as not constitutional) by the states and so, the people. He wrote at length about this last resort in the Virginia and Kentucky Resolutions, which are of course regarded as heresies by the proponents of the idea that the federal government determines the limits of its own powers, via its court of last resort.

The Supreme Court.

This was decided – as in I am the Decider – by the Supreme Court, itself, in the case of Marbury v. Madison. In which Jefferson’s enemy (and thus, an enemy of the people) John Marshall, then chief justice of the Supreme Court, simply decreed that the highest federal court is the final court of appeal. Whatever it says is “constitutional” is – or is not. When it says a plaintiff with a case does not have “standing,” he doesn’t.

And that’s all there is to it.

Some will argue that is not very . . . democratic. In that the people have no meaningful say as no ordinary citizen gets to vote for a Supreme Court “justice,” as if these nine people were in fact dispensers of the latter. The fact is they’re undemocratically selected by one person and appointed for life terms, which means once appointed they are free to decide whatever they like and there are no consequences for them and no appeal for us."
