Supreme Court rules against Donald Trump’s broad tariffs

On Friday morning, the Supreme Court ruled against Donald Trump’s broad tariffs, which he imposed through a series of executive orders, under the International Emergency Economic Powers Act (IEEPA), declaring that the 1977 law does not authorize the president to unilaterally impose sweeping import duties as a tool for addressing trade deficits, national security, or emergencies like fentanyl flows.
