re: #172 Sergey Romanov

What about a law (let’s call it L) prohibiting the SCOTUS from revising both a certain law previously passed and the law L? If it’s constitutional until the SCOTUS decides, the SCOTUS cannot even begin to decide on that case, can it? (Yes, I’m asking just for lulz.)

It’d be up to the designated enforcement entity to actually prevent the Supremes from reviewing it, which is not likely to happen. Congress can’t actually tell the SCOTUS to do anything.
