The Supreme Court, in a 6-3 ruling, said President Trump did not have authority under the International Emergency Economic Powers Act to impose tariffs.

KEY POINTS

Donald Trump said Supreme Court Justices Neil Gorsuch and Amy Coney Barrett “sicken me” for voting to rule that his IEEPA tariffs were illegal.

Trump said that Gorsuch and Barrett are “bad for our country” in a speech at the National Republican Congressional Committee dinner in Washington, D.C.

The president fumed that the Supreme Court did not let the U.S. government off the hook from having to refund up to $165 billion in tariffs collected until the decision was issued on Feb. 20.

    Hopefully, Gorsuch and Barrett now see what type of person Trump is. A person who wants everyone to follow him. A person who wants to be a dictator.
