The Commerce Power
The Interstate Commerce Clause may be found in Article I, Section 8:
"...To regulate commerce with foreign nations, and among the several states, and with the Indian tribes;"
Since it is the Supreme Court that decides what is constitutional and what is not, the decisions of the Supreme Court cannot be unconstitutional, however, it is always possible for the Supreme Court to make new decisions which reverse older decisions. So in theory, if the Supreme Court does something wrong, they will be reversed by a later sitting of the same court (but with new judges).
No. No one has the power to veto acts of the US Supreme Court. They are head of the Judicial branch of government, and have final authority over constitutional interpretation.The Supreme Court can overturn its own decisions, or Congress and the States can work together to ratify a new constitutional amendment that effectively nullifies a decision.The President can veto acts of Congress, but Congress can override the veto with a two-thirds super-majority vote of both houses.
No. In Article III, the powers of the Supreme Court are listed. Congress in Section 8, Clauses 1, 2, and 5 is given the expressed power to do those things.

Since it is the Supreme Court that decides what is constitutional and what is not, the decisions of the Supreme Court cannot be unconstitutional, however, it is always possible for the Supreme Court to make new decisions which reverse older decisions. So in theory, if the Supreme Court does something wrong, they will be reversed by a later sitting of the same court (but with new judges).
Congress. Marshall's decisions set a precedent allowing the Legislative Branch to exercise "implied powers," in addition to the expressed powers listed in Article I of the Constitution.
Congress can attempt to rewrite the law so that it conforms with the Supreme Court's interpretation of the Constitution; or, they can abandon an ill-conceived law; or, they can attempt to call a Constitutional Convention or work with the states to amend the Constitution (the least likely and most time-consuming solution). Congress cannot nullify the Supreme Court decision, however. In most cases, they either rewrite or abandon the legislation. Congress also sometimes ignores Supreme Court decisions, although they are not supposed to.
The decisions of the Supreme Court can be overturned through a few ways, such as passing a constitutional amendment, the Court itself reversing its own decision, or Congress passing a new law that contradicts the Court's ruling.
The guiding force in the US for US Supreme Court decisions is the US Constitution. The Supreme Court is one of the three major parts of the Federal government. Through the Congress, the Executive branch and the Court, a balance of power was created.
The Supreme Court
