That Twining ruling always bothered me. It strikes me as an example of Judges selectively picking from the Constitution to justify their decision. Article IV specifically states that the Constitution is the Supreme Law of the Land and all judges in all states must abide by it.
The Bill of Rights, though, was adopted as a firewall against only the Federal government - the first amendment for example provides only that “Congress shall make no laws respecting the establishment of religion . . . “ and does not address State legislatures.
Later, through the 14th Amendment, SCOTUS eventually held that the 14 amendment requires the states are bound by almost all of the bill of rights.
