[Horace]

@Doctor-Phibes said in SCOTUS blocks Trump tariffs under IEEPA:

He's just announced a global 10% tariff on everybody.

Yeah. Oddly the market didn't react.

That tariff has a built in 150 day limit.

Gorsuch's comment on this (confirmed by Newsweek):

[Horace]

No need for journalist confirmation. That was in the written opinion released by SCOTUS.

[Mik]

I confirm anything I see on FB before I share it.

[xenon]

Trump had another tantrum and upped the 10% to 15%.

[Horace]

sigh.

He loves taxing Americans. Makes Mamdani look like Milton Friedman in comparison.

From what I understand, there has to be an investigation and written justification (at least) for tariffs under the new sections. Of course the administration will concoct something, but if it's too transparently garbage, it'll be open to court rejection, presumably.
