Original Note:
The Constitution grants courts the power to block unlawful executive actions (Marbury v. Madison, Article III). Since 1803 the courts have checked presidential overreach to uphold democracy. Without judicial review we wouldn’t have democracy we’d have dictatorship. https://www.archives.gov/milestone-documents/marbury-v-madison https://www.supremecourt.gov/about/constitutional.aspx https://www.archives.gov/founding-docs/constitution-transcript
