Full Conference: Trump 'ashamed' of Supreme Court following ruling on tariffs

The U.S. Supreme Court ruled, 6-3, that the International Emergency Economic Powers Act does not give President Donald Trump the authority to impose tariffs, dealing a major blow to his trade agenda. "I'm ashamed of certain members of the court, absolutely ashamed for not having the courage to do what's right for our country," Trump said during a press briefing on Friday. Trump said he would impose tariffs under other laws. During the briefing, he announced plans to implement a 10% global tariff under Section 122 of the Trade Act of 1974. He also said national security tariffs under Section 232 and existing Section 301 tariffs would remain in place. "Countries that have treated us badly will have to pay a price for treating us badly, and countries that have been good to us will be treated very well," he said. Friday's order only blocks tariffs imposed under the emergency powers law. They were announced on “Liberation Day” on April 2, as well as tariffs enacted in February targeting imports from Canada, China and Mexico. Chief Justice John Roberts wrote the majority opinion, joined by Justices Sonia Sotomayor, Elena Kagan, Neil Gorsuch, Amy Coney Barrett and Ketanji Brown Jackson, emphasizing that the power to impose tariffs rests with Congress. ------------------------------------- Join our newsletter at https://bit.ly/2q1tepr Follow us on Facebook:   / scrippsnews   Follow us on Twitter:   / scrippsnews   Follow us on Instagram:   / scrippsnews   Follow us on TikTok:   / scrippsnews
