The Federal Trade Court ruled that Trump's imposition of tariffs was illegal.

The federal trade court ruled that Trump's imposition of 10% tariffs on most imported goods into the United States was illegal, adding another legal setback to the White House's efforts to launch a trade war without explicit congressional authorization. The ruling temporarily limits Trump's ability to significantly expand his trade powers. Trump has long sought to reshape America's economic relationships with allies and adversaries through tariffs, increase government revenue, and encourage more companies to produce within the U.S. Although the court found these tariffs unlawful, it explicitly prohibited their collection only in the scope affecting the small businesses and certain states that filed the lawsuit. It remains unclear how the White House will implement this order, but an appeal is expected.
