@DemDifference @longcourse But why? It was Congress' job to handle the taxation before and they didn't care for tariffs. Why the sudden urgency on what was a non-issue before Der Fuhrer commanded it?

@DemDifference @longcourse Republicans can't govern

@gooba42 @DemDifference Mike Johnson can't bend over quickly enough.

It is a rare setback for the administration at the Supreme Court, which has a 6-3 conservative majority, since Trump began his second term in January.

@Kiarakiora @DemDifference it is and a welcome one letting Congress know they need to do their jobs.

Supreme Court ruled 6-3 against the Trump administration, blocking the use of emergency powers to impose sweeping global tariffs. They need to be very strict with their rules.
