Here’s your daily reminder that Donald Trump owes every American family $1,700 he took in illegal tariffs.

Pay up.

There is no exception to the major questions doctrine for emergency
statutes. Nor does the fact that tariffs implicate foreign affairs render
the doctrine inapplicable. The Framers gave β€œCongress alone” the
power to impose tariffs during peacetime. Merritt v. Welsh, 104 U. S.
694, 700. And the foreign affairs implications of tariffs do not make it
any more likely that Congress would relinquish its tariff power
through vague language, or without careful limits.

(a) IEEPA authorizes the President to β€œinvestigate, block during the
pendency of an investigation, regulate, direct and compel, nullify, void,
prevent or prohibit . . . importation or exportation.” Β§1702(a)(1)(B).
Absent from this lengthy list of specific powers is any mention of tariffs
or duties. Had Congress intended to convey the distinct and extraordinary power to impose tariffs, it would have done so expressly, as it
consistently has in other tariff statutes.
The power to β€œregulate . . . importation” does not fill that void. The
term β€œregulate,” as ordinarily used, means to β€œfix, establish, or control;
to adjust by rule, method, or established mode; to direct by rule or restriction; to subject to governing principles or laws.” Black’s Law Dictionary 1156. The facial breadth of this definition places in stark relief
what ”regulate” is not usually thought to include: taxation. Many statutes grant the Executive the power to β€œregulate.” Yet the Government
cannot identify any statute in which the power to regulate includes the
power to tax. The Court is therefore skeptical that in IEEPAβ€”and
IEEPA aloneβ€”Congress hid a delegation of its birth-right power to tax
within the quotidian power to β€œregulate.”
While taxes may accomplish regulatory ends, it does not follow that
the power to regulate includes the power to tax as a means of regulation. Indeed, when Congress addresses both the power to regulate and
the power to tax, it does so separately and expressly. That it did not
do so here is strong evidence that β€œregulate” in IEEPA does not include
taxation.

Supreme Court absolutely bodies Trump on IEEPA.

Just complete groin kicking.

They could have said that IEEPA lets him impose tariffs in an emergency but that this didn't qualify as one of those, or he failed to define one.

It didn't.

It ruled IEEPA doesn't let him impose tariffs at all.

Two panel graphic featuring Donald Trump and a news headline. 

First panel, Donald Trump: "I've won. I've won affordability." A yellow box with black text appears reading, "February 19."

Second panel, news headline: "Reuters: US consumer inflation increases steadily, but households. paying more for food and rents." A yellow box with black text appears reading, "Reality for working families."
