Nothing in the Constitution declares the rulings of the SCOTUS as "the law of the land." SCOTUS has the power it currently dictates onto the people because it declared that power for itself (otherwise known as "The Divine rights of Justices"). SCOTUS continues its slow gathering of power to itself while neither of the other two branches have had the rocks to defy the Supreme Court's self-declared supremacy.

Since the executive is the only branch with police powers, and the legislative is the only branch with taxing / purse powers, either or both could legally and easily (theoretically) curtail the out-of-control (IMO) federal judiciary.

They (executive and judiciary) have failed to adequately put the SCOTUS and the federal judiciary in general back in line as a co-equal branch, preferring to operate as subservient while trying to stack the court so the dictates of the court would agree with the politics of those currently in power in each branch.

JMO, and only JMO.
