SUPREME COURT STRIKES DOWN TRUMP’S GLOBAL TARIFFS The Supreme Court ruled Friday that President Trump’s global tariffs are illegal, rejecting his use of emergency powers to impose trade duties. • The tariffs, covering imports from Canada, China, Mexico, and nearly all countries, were projected to raise $1.5 trillion over a decade. • Trump justified them as a response to fentanyl and trade deficits, declaring national emergencies. • Lawsuits argued the tariffs were unauthorized taxes on Americans, and lower courts largely agreed. • The decision ends a signature White House trade policy, which had remained in place during litigation.
