actually, the USSC is just doing their job.
Its the shit-hole district judges that need to stay in their lane/district.

1. Of course the Supreme Court has to clean up all these lower courts bullshit, when they shit the bed, but how much shit does the SC have to clean???
2. These tactics of halting Trump by some jackwade judge in a lower court, be is federal or whatever jackwater court it is, is getting freaky, cant sling a dead cat without hitting one of the extreme judges.

trump's congressional worker bees are trying to protect the queen. And in so doing aiding Don's illegal action regarding tariffs.

House Republicans voted in near lockstep Tuesday to again cede congressional power over tariffs to President Donald Trump.

A measure that effectively blocks challenges to Trump’s sweeping global tariff declarations through March 2026 was adopted on a 213-211 vote. The vote was gaveled down only after GOP whips had a drawn-out struggle on the floor with a band of Republicans who initially opposed the legislation before flipping to yes. The vote was held open for more than a half-hour as they worked to bring the members back on board.

Three Republicans — Reps. Kevin Kiley of California, Thomas Massie of Kentucky and Victoria Spartz of Indiana — ended up joining Democrats to oppose the measure, a “rule” which also teed up several D.C.-related criminal justice bills for debate.

“I think this is a misuse of what rules are for, and I think it’s bad for the representative process,” Kiley said of the tariff provisions.

House GOP leaders move to extend block on tariff termination votes​

House Republican leaders are moving to again head off votes trying to cancel much of President Donald Trump’s sweeping tariff regime.

A procedural measure Republicans on the Rules Committee advanced Monday night would extend until March 31 a block on efforts by Democrats and several Republicans to end the national emergencies underlying Trump’s sweeping tariffs — including on Mexico, Canada, Brazil and his “liberation day” levies from April.

 
With all of the presidents whom have imposed tariffs, including Biden, it would be hard for the SC to rule them illegal.

Trump is warning of a "catastrophe" if the USSC rules against him on his managing tariffs, ruled illegal after 10/14/25.

Congress gave presidents power over tariffs. They could aways take it back​

Joining Grassley are former Republican leader Sen. Mitch McConnell of Kentucky and GOP Sens. Jerry Moran of Kansas, Lisa Murkowski of Alaska, Thom Tillis of North Carolina, Todd Young of Indiana and Susan Collins of Maine.
A similar bill is being introduced by Rep. Don Bacon, a Nebraska Republican, in the House of Representatives.
“It’s time that Congress restores its authorities here,” Bacon said on CBS News over the weekend. “We gave some of that power to the executive branch, and I think in hindsight, that was a mistake.”
Not everyone agrees that Trump’s current interpretation of the law — in which he can impose tariffs by declaring a national emergency — is legitimate.

In short: Although the District Court was adamant that imposing tariffs requires an exercise of taxation power, rather than the power to regulate commerce, the Constitution’s original meaning and Supreme Court precedent indicate that tariffs can be used in both the taxation and commerce-regulation settings. Thus, by clearly delegating power to regulate foreign commerce—a power that has long been understood to include the authority to impose tariffs—IEEPA is best understood as delegating tariff-setting authority to the President. What’s more, neither the nondelegation doctrine nor the major questions doctrine invalidate IEEPA’s delegation of tariff authority.


Interestingly, Section 122 has never previously been used, and as a consequence, the courts have not had reason to interpret its language. Some commentators have suggested that it might legitimately be used to target trade deficits, but others conclude that the term balance-of-payments does not refer to trade deficits, Section 122 (a) referring to the balance-of-payments, and Section 122 (c) which refers the balance of trade, i.e., there is a presumption that Congress intended to make the distinction.

So most experts say its not a slam dunk either way. We should know by 10/14 which is when the tariffs become illegal.
Before everyone start voting after knowing the verdict, let me post how dumb this message board is:

If you think the tariffs are going away guess again.

It's just under which statute the tariffs will be imposed.

I'm surprised that the USSC overruled the Executive as to what constitutes an "emergency'.

Trump cannot replicate the IEEPA tariffs in size, speed or impact with some BS “section whatever”. He lost big time.
And expect some refunds to be issued for the illegal tariffs.

Nope.

Yes he can use section 301 instead of IEEPA. The Supremes even said so. So what did he lose? Hint: nothing
