That is the 7 - 4 decision of the appeals court.

Only thing left once again for Trump is the Supremem Court.

What a mess. This will not be concluded for several more months. Businesses left hanging in the wind.

All because Trump tries to use powers that belong with Congress.

The federal government has spent $1.63 trillion more than it has collected in fiscal year (FY) 2025.

Total CY2025 tariff collection would cover less than one month of federal spending deficit.
