Your argument would, for example, if death rays were invented, to have laws that specifically dealt with murder by death ray (specific evidentiary rules, for example) to pass because that would "expand" Federal power.
Your example is self-defeating -- murder is not a federal issue, and therefore such a law at the federal level would clearly be a usurpation.
