President Donald Trump attacked the Supreme Court's 6-3 ruling against his tariff authority, calling the decision "ridiculous." The court determined Trump acted outside his authority when imposing tariffs under the International Emergency Economic Powers Act, or IEEPA, rendering a significant portion of his tariffs as unlawful. Trump expressed outrage at the decision during a White House address, claiming the court prevented him from charging tariffs while permitting embargoes and trade restrictions. He said, "I can do anything I want to do to them, but I can't charge any money," adding, "so I'm allowed to destroy the country, but I can't charge them a little fee." Trump has centered much of his presidency on tariff policy and previously warned the ruling could cause a $2 trillion "catastrophe" and reduce the United States to "almost Third World status."
