SCOTUS Strikes Down Trump's Sweeping Tariffs
February 21, 2026·3 days ago·via The Hill

The Supreme Court delivers a 6-3 smackdown to President Trump's broad tariffs, ruling they exceed his powers under the 1977 IEEPA law meant for regulating commerce during foreign emergencies, not imposing taxes on imports. Chief Justice Roberts warns that allowing such moves would hand the president unchecked authority to slap unbounded tariffs on any country or product by merely declaring an emergency - a clear win for Congress's Article I taxing power and separation of checks and balances.
