SCOTUS themselves might declare new laws or even new constitutional amendments invalid because “that was not envisioned by the founding fathers” or some bull like that
SCOTUS doesn’t have a mechanism to enforce their decisions. They rely on everyone else accepting their authority and going along with it.
The constitution does give Congress the authority to set the jurisdiction of the courts. They could say that another court like the DC Circuit Court of Appeals would be the court of final appeal for any laws involving SCOTUS.
They don’t have the authority to rule on the validity of a constitutional amendment, though that’s moot because they do have the authority to rule on the interpretation of it
