Tariff ruling.

[JimH52]

If the tariffs were improper...all of the taxes importers paid in these new tariffs are now subject to being refunded.

Like $180,000,000,000...good luck with that mess.

Gee....

Wasn't this the SCOTUS that was put in place by Trump to kiss his backside.

To all of you who said that....shove your computers sideways.

These are independent judges who were chosen to protect us as an equal part of the separation and balance of powers.

If these were Biden appointees, they'd be drooling all over themselves.

Jackson deserves to be removed. She's a disaster.

The problem with Democrat presidents.....they want judges who don't correctly interpret the law. They want political activism on the bench.

Many U.S. importers have kept meticulous records in anticipation of submitting those requests if a court ruling allowed them to pursue tariff refunds. The consulting firm Capital Economics estimates that those refund requests could total as much as $120 billion. So, will consumers see any of that money, given that they ultimately paid a significant portion of it? Probably not. Companies are not likely to issue refunds, or lower prices. But they may hold off on prices increases that they had planned for this year, especially if they are not in a sector that is likely to fall under any new tariffs the White House might impose.

Yep, all pocketed. A huge windfall for corporations, while the people get screwed again.

This is no big deal and was the expected ruling. Trump will find a way to bypass this ruling in my opinion.

No......because the decision doesn't address that.

2 of the 3 he appointed did kiss his ass.

I thought tariffs were just passed along to consumers. Shouldn't they get the refund?

Trump still has authority to impose tariffs under different laws

Sorry, just found out is is more like $200 Billion.

 

[pknopp]

give an example of what you think they got wrong...

Ruling that the president was above the law.

this whole thing starting from/with the article(s) is a life jacket for those in desperate need of looking like they finally got a victory of some sort.

As noted, the majority of times I agree with the court.

There are a few. He can sell countries a license to export to us and charge what he wants. The does have that power under law

Yep.....it sucks when congress refuses to cooperate with a policy that not only worked.....but was way too effective.

They simply cannot have that.

I am certainly not an expert on these laws but from what I understand (and as I have said, other info might be brought up) other aspects are far narrower.

Trump never gave Congress the option to act on any of this.

Yes, there is more than one way to skin a cat.

 

[mudwhistle]

Probably because congress never objected to raising tariffs (taxes) before.

Just how ******* crazy does that sound?

This ruling was 6-3.

The Case v Montana ruling seems to have just upheld both prior USSC decisions and the lower court rulings. It's hard to say the court diluted the 4th Amendment with the Case decision when it was reaffirming the 2006 Brigham City v Stuart decision.

I don't know what you mean that they are "preparing to make some unprecedented and even shocking 2nd Amendment rulings." What gives you that impression?

As far as the tariff ruling, I don't have any issue with it on first glance. The emergency powers exception was always an incredibly thin excuse and clearly seemed like the executive trying to gather more power to itself. While that is nothing new (it seems as if the executive has been trying to increase its power from the very beginning), I am certainly not opposed to the occasional check on executive power.

The administration can still use other laws to levy tariffs, it just can't do it so quickly and easily with the threadbare 'emergency' excuse.

In our past we levied tariffs as needed without this crap. So, we will see how much prices will come down then immediately from this ruling. Hopefully the money already invested here will not leave.
