The Supreme Court can declare laws passed by Congress (the House of Representatives and the Senate) to be unconstitutional.
More detail:
Judicial review refers to the courts' ability to review any law to see if it violates any existing law or any statute of a state constitution or the US Constitution. On the federal level, Marbury v. Madison (1803) is considered the landmark case for the Supreme Court asserting its authority of judicial review, to strike down a law as unconstitutional.
Background on the landmark case concerning the Supreme Court's power of judicial review:
It was sort of a roundabout way in which the principle of judicial review was asserted by the Supreme Court in the case of Marbury v. Madison. William Marbury had been appointed Justice of the Peace for the District of Columbia by outgoing president John Adams -- one of a number of such last-minute appointments made by Adams. When Thomas Jefferson came into office as president, he directed his Secretary of State, James Madison, not to deliver many of the commission papers for appointees such as Marbury. Marbury petitioned the Supreme Court directly to hear his case, as a provision of the Judiciary Act of 1789 had made possible. The Court said that particular provision of the Judiciary Act was in conflict with Article III of the Constitution, and so they could not issue a specific ruling in Marbury's case (which they believe he should have won). Nevertheless, in making their statement about the case, the Court established the principle of judicial review.
In the story of Oedipus he was given a prophecy saying that he would kill his father and marry his mother. And in the end of the story he does end up killing his father and marrying his mother. This is foreshadowing, a clue or event that has happened before that tells of an event that will happen in the future.
Overlapping claims by the British and the Iroquois Confederacy resulted in American Indians working together to drive the British off the continent. Overlapping claims by the French, the British, and the Spanish created fierce competition between the three European nations.
Railroads on the Railways required tracks for the trains to run on them these tracks earlier made up of iron for its heavy duty but soon enough realise that iron was not a very good option for tracks. Meaning drawbacks of using iron for example rusting is it was realised that Steel was a better option in making railroads.
Steel being made out of iron is heavy duty material yet it is not much prone to rusting. Just addition of certain minerals and carbon in iron steel forging is done making it heavy duty material.
