Congress has been reworking the Constitution since the beginning until it means little today. The best example would be the 2nd amendment.

I think the best example is the Commerce Clause. It's been nuanced into an essentially open-ended claim of authority with no objectively discernible limit. You'd be hard pressed to find anything closer to a Constitutional Pandora's Box than Wickard v Filburn.
