The Supreme Court on Tuesday struck down Trump's tariffs. In a 6-3 decision (170-pages), the court ruled that Trump's use of the 1977 International Emergency Economic Powers Act (IEEPA) - which constitute about half of the tariffs we've seen under Trump - was not lawful. Kavanaugh, Thomas and Alito dissented.
"IEEPA does not authorize the President to impose tariffs," wrote the court.
