I suspect he didn't answer the other questions because his progressive ideology favors a loose interpretation of the constitution. I'm guessing he would have no concerns if the SC majority leaned the other way and the court's rulings reflected current progressive leanings rather than than being bound by the constitution itself.

Oh they meant it. The problem is that progressives don't like it.

I guess you read Article 3 Section 2 differently than I do...

"The judicial power shall extend to all cases, in law and equity, arising under this Constitution..."

An originalist believes it means what it says. "Shall extend to all cases" includes ALL cases including challenges to legislation. Marbury v. Madison formalized the concept of judicial review - a concept based on the powers granted to the court in Article 3. In other words, the SC always had the authority, in Marbury v. Madison the court formalized it as a principle - one granted to the court under the Constitution.
