A federal court upheld a ruling invalidating most of Trump’s global tariffs, citing lack of authority under IEEPA. The decision threatens government revenue and businesses. Trump called it catastrophic and vowed a Supreme Court appeal, claiming tariffs remain in effect www.axios.com/2025/08/29/t...

You know when America was at its greatest point? In the 1920s when tariffs on countries was not a problem! Other countries tariff America, so why can't America tariff them?

It was a Federal Appeals Court that made this decision so that is a bit more than just a Federal court. Who, besides Trump Admin, says the decision threatens government revenue and businesses? Many businesses and consumers are threatened by tariffs. Why should consumers have to pay taxes & tariffs?

He'll have to send the money back. I read that "if" the Supreme Court agrees that the tariffs are illegal, then the US will be paying back billions of dollars. www.bbc.com/news/article...

Don’t worry, SCOTUS will overturn it as soon as they can. I have no hope for this country unless the MAGA cult is driven out.

Why don't Democrats call them #RepublicanImportTaxes? Instead of tariffs? Because Trump could not do this without the complicit, cowardly Republicans in Congress, abandoning their oversight. Make them own this. Call them #RepublicanImportTaxes Framing Matters if you want to win.

When we zoom out and remind ourselves that tariff policy belongs to Congress and is given to it by the Constitution, the idea that one person making tariff policy (and harming thousands of businesses and millions of consumers) is 🍌🍌🍌

Big deal. The court left the tariffs in place to keep up the damage to the US' former allies so Mad King FICUS could appeal. The way the US & US People are lying down for him was shocking at first, but not anymore.

The decision does Not threaten government revenue in any way. The government never had this revenue stream before and an actual budget for the coming fiscal year has yet to be passed, continuing resolutions don’t contain tariff revenue Secondly the tariffs would slow the economy reducing tax revenue

And you know the Supreme Court is going to slow walk the whole thing. They're just waiting for their bribes to get it right so they can vote the way Trump wants them to to overrule. It's the most corrupt Supreme Court I've ever seen in my life I thought Barrett and Roberts were the good ones?🤷‍♂️🫤

IIUC the ruling was based on the law/act used to enact tariffs. I think it likely SCOTUS will rule that while Congress has the authority to enact tariffs the fact that it didn’t strike them down means the body isn’t at issue with them precisely bc it declined to strike them down

With that kind of reasoning they could just say well Congress wasn't all that concerned about pedophile rapists being hidden from the public so why would we back a fully legal request that all of the FBI files on Epstein be released to congress? If Congress is okay, why would we challenge?

Yeah that's what I meant same thing with the rapist files protecting Trump obviously. The Supreme Court will just rationalize since nobody was all up in arms about it in Congress we're not going to rule to have them released either. Only problem is Congress is run by pedophile GOP right now

Roberts has rendered SCOTUS moot & while I believe his intent was to follow the constitution (as in power only in the hands of wealthy white men) he never envisioned the gross monstrosity of Trump. Roberts created the legal mishegas we are in & doesn’t have what it takes to reverse course.
