Supreme Court Strikes Down Trump Tariffs: Six Republican Nominees in Majority

• The Supreme Court ruled 6-3 that former President Donald Trump lacked authority under IEEPA to impose sweeping tariffs.
• The Court stated that such powers lie with Congress, not the President.
• Six of the nine justices who struck down the tariffs were nominated by Republican presidents.
• Notably, two of Trump’s own appointees, Neil M. Gorsuch and Amy Coney Barrett, joined the majority.
• The ruling underscores judicial independence, as the court did not divide strictly along party lines despite a conservative majority.
