The constitution doesn’t say only the Supreme Court can decide something is illegal.
Article III, Section 1:
“The judicial Power of the United States, shall be vested in one supreme Court, and in such inferior Courts as the Congress may from time to time ordain and establish.”
Yet another armchair expert that’s literally never taken the time to read the Constitution, which again, establishes the US Supreme Court as the highest court in the land vesting in it, supreme judicial power. So why don’t you do yourself a favor and Google what “judicial power” means…
Congress has the power to make anything into law that they want, regardless of the legality of it. It comes down to the SCOTUS to interpret whether or not the law is indeed legal and enforceable. That is a power vested singularly in the SCOTUS by the US Constitution.
I’m not interested in a Reddit-tier “did you read the first paragraph of this Wikipedia article like me” debate with a random .ee user.
You are arguing that a law has an indeterminate legality until and unless the Supreme Court rules on it. That makes no fucking sense. The power of judicial review means exactly what it says on the tin. They get to settle disputes over the interpretation of a law. If a law is not disputed, then interpretation falls to the lower courts. And fucking obviously, the average person understands what is illegal without any need to “well ackshually only the courts have the God-given right to judicial review.”
You do understand that the legal system operates throughout the country, every day of the year, without input from the Supreme Court? That people are tried, convicted, and serve decades of prison time, because they were determined to have broken the law?
