Supreme Court accused of building power no one gave it
Original: The Supreme Court is building power no one gave it
Commentary argues the US Supreme Court is expanding its own authority without a mandate from Congress or voters, reigniting debate over the Court's legitimacy and the scope of judicial power.

Why now: Ongoing concern over the Supreme Court's aggressive use of its power and its effect on democratic accountability.
