John Marshall's Impact on Supreme Court and Federal Supremacy in US History.

President John Adams nominated John Marshall to the Supreme Court, replacing Oliver Ellsworth. Marshall's confirmation followed shortly after. Under Marshall's leadership, the Supreme Court established the principle of judicial review through the landmark case Marbury v. Madison. This decision empowered the judiciary to invalidate laws conflicting with the Constitution, bolstering the judiciary's role as a co-equal branch of government. The Marshall Court consistently reinforced federal supremacy over state laws, shaping the course of American constitutional development and strengthening the federal government. #JohnMarshall #SupremeCourt #JudicialReview #FederalSupremacy #USHistory #JohnAdams #EllsworthReplacement #MoofLife
