Supreme Court Appears Skeptical of Trump’s Global Tariffs

The US Supreme Court appeared skeptical of President Donald Trump’s sweeping global tariffs, as key justices suggested he had overstepped his authority with his signature economic policy.

In a nearly three-hour hearing Wednesday, the court hinted it was ready to put significant limits on Trump’s far-reaching agenda for the first time since he took office in January. Three members of the conservative majority questioned Trump’s use of an emergency-powers law to collect tens of billions of dollars in tariffs a month.
