    And the supreme court is now saying they answer to nobody, not the president, not congress.

      It’s all there in the constitution. Look it up.

      ‘There will be a Supreme court.’

      Hmm odd. Thought there might be more to say about it for a court that its supposed duty is to interpret the constitution.

        You missed the:

        the Supreme Court shall have appellate jurisdiction, both as to law and fact, with such exceptions, and under such regulations as the Congress shall make.

        And currently, Alito is saying that congress can’t regulate them at all, that they do whatever they want.
