OK did exactly, as I said he would above, come back with the Articles of Confederation Congress.
One, the land was ceded to the US by Great Britain.
Two, that it was the Congress who created the way for settlers to map, organize, and gain titles to land.
So the the Articles of Confederation Congress also adopted and approved the Constitution in 1787.
Thus the Congresses before and after the Constitution exercised their proper legislative function. Nothing in the Constitution prevents such functions. (As a side bar: that also applies to Presidential actions create by legislative action, such as the Antiquities Act of 1906. Federal courts will prevent Trump and Congress from amending or eliminating Bears Ears or other monuments.)
OK simply does not know much US history and understands less.
