It means that you have idiots in Congress who don't know the Constitution, or they are Communists and are trying to pull a fast one over the country.
Would criminal penalties and excommunication for not upholding their oaths as evidenced by voting for, signing, executing, and improperly adjudicating unconstitutional laws help get rid of bad members of Congress?
There is a process for removing a person from Congress. Every 2 years a Representative can be removed, and every 6 years a Senator can be removed. Unfortunately it takes a well informed electorate to pull the correct level in order to remove a scoundrel from office. The individual houses of Congress can remove a member by 2/3s vote. https://www.senate.gov/about/powers-procedures/expulsion.htm
