Breaking News: U.S. Supreme Court Rules Trump's Global Tariff Policy Invalid
The Supreme Court ruled that Trump's use of the International Emergency Economic Powers Act (IEEPA) to impose broad tariffs exceeded his authority.
The International Economic Powers Act does not grant the president the right to impose tariffs on any country at any time.
The court stated that the power to impose tariffs belongs to Congress, and the IEEPA cannot be used to justify large-scale trade tariffs.
Comment: The Supreme Court clearly returned the tariff power to Congress, directly negating the legality of the president's arbitrary global tariff war under the "emergency state." This means that Trump's approach of unlimited, borderless global taxation has been overturned from a legal foundation. This is not only a result of the U.S. system of checks and balances, but also a clear stop to trade protectionism and unilateral sanctions.
