"We Broke the Covenant"

An argument I’ve heard repeatedly is that the Law is overridden/nullified because “we broke the covenant”.

The Law already says that after Israel has “caused to annul My covenant” that “they shall confess their iniquity” and “I will REMEMBER My covenant” (Lev 26:15, 40-45).

The covenant was indeed broken by Israel, and they were cast out of the land and caused to forget their identity, but His remembrance of that same covenant is already allowed for in the Law. The Law still applies, and the Covenant still exists.
