Wild. I thought this would happen. He tried putting on the tariffs with a flimsy reasoning (fentanyl) and since in reality there is no fentanyl problem coming from Canada they were deemed illegal.
All he needs to do is get congress to pass this. They have a majority in both houses, if you want these tariffs, do it the proper way.
afaiu, the court argument is not declaring that this is a fake emergency. It is that tariffs are not the appropriate response to reducing fentanyl imports.
Well yeah, putting tariffs on that penguin Island, all of Europe, and whatever else the LLM told him isn’t going to do fuck all to reduce any fentanyl he claims is coming from Mexico
congress has the power to tax (tariff), not the president
congress has previously granted the president “limited” powers for “targeted” tariffs in an “emergency”. The current situation is none of those things.
combine the above two and Trumps across the boards tariffs are unlawful and therefore void
