Probably MARBURY v. MADISON, when Marshall created, and arrogated unto himself, judicial review.

That was the kick off ruling that started this judicial aristocracy. And it's the reason these libs turn to the courts now, knowing they can't legislate it and that some conservative leaders won't do anything about it.

John Marshall did not "create" judicial review. You need to read the history of George Wythe, the first law Professor in the US. He taught Madison, Mason, Jefferson and Patrick Henry, among others. He also, as a judge, decided
Caton v. Commonwealth, one of six cases which recognized judicial review before the Constitution was a gleam in the Framers' eyes.
What you wrote is stated in many history books. But most "historians" who write history books are lazy, sloppy and biased. That's why they make such obvious mistakes.
