It seems like heresy but Ben Shapiro is suggesting that it is time to end the practice of Judicial Review. This practice was pioneered by the first Supreme Court Justice John Marshall who pretty much whipped the idea of judges ruling on the Constitutionality of laws out of the ether. Basing his argument on some comments in the Federalist Paper, he concludes that the recent ruling against juvenile capital punishment shows that there is now no difference between the Judicial and Legislative branches.
Very bad idea. The system of checks and balances has generally worked very well over the last 2.5 centuries. It has caused some issues, certainly, but on the whole it has worked well. And there are checks on Judicial Power - namely Ammendments and the fact that all judicial rulings are actually enforced by the Executive branch.
