And you need to study history... whether the courts have upheld it or not doesn't matter, because it has been put in to practice multiple times throughout the history of the republic.

until the civil war ended.
A state can challenge a federal law on constitutional grounds but they can't just ignore it or defy it.

By the “legal definition” provided above, the Supreme Court is just that: supreme. What they rule is the law of the land, and I have laid out the precedence above that blows your argument out of the water. If they say a state law is illegal, that law no longer exists. Pretty simple here man.
After all a federal court is going to mostly rule in favor of the federal government. So when a state government is wronged by the feds and cannot get relief in the federal courts, it is free to tell the feds to take a hike. This has happened many times in American history, but again, people don't understand this because it isn't taught in government schools (by design).

I hate to tell you but the SCOTUS is not actually the final arbiter of the Constitution... the state governments (and ultimately The People) are. Read the 9th and 10th Amendments. I know they don't teach that in government schools.
Incorrect because the states created the federal government, not the other way around. The state governments are not subservient to the feds.... most of the time what you are espousing is how things normally work, but yes, there are cases and instances where the states can absolutely over ride the feds.

That's the only recourse. But it's a good one, the current regime has apparently just decided not to pack the SCOTUS, probably because they're afraid of a repeat.
After I retire I need to get some of that stuff you got.
