Why? And what bias? This is not a bad opinion.
Yep. The executive loses ZERO power that it had in this ruling.

I have no idea what the point would be. The strikedown of Biden's emergecy executive actions would seemingly have already covered the more generic reading (which this opinion doesn't directy address)

You’re ignoring the trade act of 1964 and 1974 in which congress gave the president tariff powers under certain conditions. The SCOTUS ruling only pertained to IEEPA, not the above acts.

They ruled on the specific act from congress that it was filed under. So no, they can not count another act into this ruling. It will have to start at the bottom and make it to them. Probably sometime around February of 2027. While you discuss trade leverage and act like the largest consumer market in the world is not trade leverage, that gives me an idea of where you are operating from, which is not based in reality. The United States consumer market is larger than the European Union, China and India combined. Yet you do not think that is not trade leverage? What fricking planet are you living on?

What now?


Trump and Bessent have said that the administration has other ways of trying to impose them if SCOTUS ruled against them. So now we wait and see what those other ways are and how those other ways will fare in the courts.


Of course this could all be solved if Congressional republicans got off their arse and codified Trump's tariffs into law.

Howard Lutnik strikes again….!

So that was from summer 2025 when Cantor Fitzgerald bet that the tariffs will be struck down.

You still haven't figured out, Trump is fighting for the people. Congress is fighting for their slush fund.

For all of this talk about Plan B, I cannot for the life of me understand why we’d want to go there in the first place. The end result of what was implemented here is small businesses were hammered for no reason and many went out of business. They’re trying to convince me that Trump wanted that result. There’s just a disconnect and it’s laughable to me.

This Court would’ve ruled against using the IEEPA for climate taxes so why even make that claim other than for spin?

No, voters don't want term limits for *their* politicians. They most certainly want them for everyone else's.
Of course, kinda undermines the idea of local and proportional representation.

There is no uncertainty. Trump will roll them out and it's already expected.

In the meantime, people like me who understands the market and this made out great today. I purchased AMZN 3 days ago in prep for THIS ruling. Up from 198.03 to 209.51. That's $11 per share profit.

Most of us understand that Trump doesn’t care to understand any details, and relies upon “yes” men to tell him that any idea will work…

Until reality slaps them in the face…again and again.

Yea because the largest consumer market in the entire world is not leverage at all.
We have no pricing power. And I'll post a paper later (in another thread) demonstrating that.

What tools? How?

What statute authorizes retroactive tariffs?

Kav basically laid out the ground work for the Admin to just put the tariffs back on in his dissent
