Boy are they gonna be mad!
Make-work for co-President John Roberts.
Maybe this will be the one case to many for SCOTUS in trying to obstruct the Trump administration.
But then again, maybe not . . .
Nothing in the Constitution says the president
needs to pay ANY attention to any court except
the supreme court.
Even then he can ignore them.
Only way to fix that refusal
to act is impeachment or wait
for the next election.

Long article but it is the way it works.
in federal courts, since there is only one
constitutional mandated court in America.
All the other Federal courts are subordinate to the
Supreme court.
We’re in a state of a cold civil war. Let’s get heated up!
So far, I think Bondi has maneuvered quite strategically and successfully. She’s pretty brilliant and I’m seeing her as a strong AG on the right side of the law and willing to fight the good fight.
God bless her and protect her and her family and loved ones. Amen.

Well Pam, don’tcha know that judges run foreign policies now? And domestic policies, and border Control, and immigration, and deportation decisions, and national finances, and and and? /s
President Trump is taking bold action to hold Mexico, Canada, and China accountable to their promises of halting illegal immigration and stopping poisonous fentanyl and other drugs from flowing into our country.
The orders make clear that the flow of contraband drugs like fentanyl to the United States, through illicit distribution networks, has created a national emergency, including a public health crisis.
Chinese officials have failed to take the actions necessary to stem the flow of precursor chemicals to known criminal cartels and shut down money laundering by transnational criminal organizations.
In addition, the Mexican drug trafficking organizations have an intolerable alliance with the government of Mexico. The government of Mexico has afforded safe havens for the cartels to engage in the manufacturing and transportation of dangerous narcotics, which collectively have led to the overdose deaths of hundreds of thousands of American victims. This alliance endangers the national security of the United States, and we must eradicate the influence of these dangerous cartels.
There is also a growing presence of Mexican cartels operating fentanyl and nitazene synthesis labs in Canada. A recent study recognized Canada’s heightened domestic production of fentanyl, and its growing footprint within international narcotics distribution.
“Fentanyl is the leading cause of death for Americans ages 18 to 49.”

President Donald J. Trump declared that foreign trade and economic practices have created a national emergency
Reciprocal tariffs are a big part of why Americans voted for President Trump—it was a cornerstone of his campaign from the start.
Everyone knew he’d push for them once he got back in office; it’s exactly what he promised, and it’s a key reason he won the election.
If the U.S. wishes to maintain an effective security umbrella to defend its citizens and homeland, as well as allies and partners, it needs to have a large upstream manufacturing and goods-producing ecosystem.
U.S. companies, according to internal estimates, pay over $200 billion per year in value-added taxes (VAT) to foreign governments—a “double-whammy” on U.S. companies who pay the tax at the European border
The United States imposes a 2.5% tariff on passenger vehicle imports (with internal combustion engines), while the European Union (10%) and India (70%) impose much higher duties on the same product.
The UK maintains non-science-based standards that severely restrict U.S. exports of safe, high-quality beef and poultry products.
Argentina has banned imports of U.S. live cattle since 2002 due to unsubstantiated concerns regarding bovine spongiform encephalopathy.
For decades, South Africa has imposed animal health restrictions that are not scientifically justified on U.S. pork products, permitting a very limited list of U.S. pork exports to enter South Africa. South Africa also heavily restricts U.S. poultry exports through high tariffs, anti-dumping duties, and unjustified animal health restrictions. These barriers have contributed to a 78% decline in U.S. poultry exports to South Africa, from $89 million in 2019 to $19 million 2024.
The United States has one of the lowest simple average most-favored-nation (MFN) tariff rates in the world at 3.3%, while many of our key trading partners like Brazil (11.2%), China (7.5%), the European Union (5%), India (17%), and Vietnam (9.4%) have simple average MFN tariff rates that are significantly higher.
This imbalance has fueled a large and persistent trade deficit in both industrial and agricultural goods, led to offshoring of our manufacturing base, empowered non-market economies like China, and hurt America’s middle class and small towns.
Historically, Congress set tariffs and maintained tight control over this power. However, over time, particularly after the Great Depression, there was a shift towards delegating some authority to the executive branch. This began with the Reciprocal Trade Agreements Act of 1934, allowing the President to negotiate trade agreements without separate congressional approval each time.
Later acts, such as the Trade Expansion Act of 1962 and the Trade Act of 1974, further evolved this delegated authority. These allowed the President to act on national security concerns through tariffs or respond to unfair foreign trade practices.
However, this delegation is not unchecked. For instance, Section 232 of the 1962 Act enables the President to impose tariffs if imports threaten national security, but this is bounded by specific findings and processes.
The historical evolution of tariff authority delegation reflects the adaptability of our constitutional framework. The Reciprocal Trade Agreements Act of 1934 marked a pivotal shift, empowering the executive branch to negotiate trade arrangements with other nations. This was not an abandonment of congressional authority but a pragmatic adaptation to enable quick responses to rapid changes in international trade markets.
In United States v. Belmont (1937), the Court upheld the executive’s ability to make unilateral agreements in particular circumstances, confirming that the President had limited latitude to act independently of Congress, yet within the boundaries defined by existing legislation and constitutional principles.
The Steel Seizure Case (Youngstown Sheet & Tube Co. v. Sawyer, 1952) provides an important counterpoint to unfettered executive power. The Court invalidated President Truman’s attempt to seize steel mills during the Korean War without explicit congressional authority, emphasizing that the President cannot unilaterally take over domestic industries. Justice Robert Jackson’s influential concurrence laid out a framework assessing executive power based on congressional backing.
Section 232 of the Trade Expansion Act of 1962: Enables the President to impose tariffs if imports threaten national security, following a thorough investigation.
Section 301 of the Trade Act of 1974: Allows the President to impose retaliatory tariffs to counteract unfair foreign trade practices.
International Emergency Economic Powers Act (IEEPA): Grants the President authority to regulate commerce during national emergencies involving foreign threats, requiring a formal declaration.
These powers are not absolute. The Supreme Court has consistently underscored the need for an “intelligible principle” guiding the exercise of any delegated authority. This judicial oversight ensures that the President’s tariff-related powers align with congressional intent and constitutional mandates.
While the President possesses significant authority to impose tariffs under certain conditions, this power is framed by statutory directives and constitutional principles that uphold the balance of powers. The legislative branch retains its critical oversight role, ensuring that tariffs are used judiciously in accordance with national interests and the rule of law.

Super majority and impeachment of activist judges. That’s how you stop it.
The courts have ZERO role in an emergency declaration and he can ignore them. The only check on an emergency declaration is that congress can override it with legislation he cannot override, or removing him with impeachment.
The court literally has no role. The emergency is a declaration of system override. Congress is the only check on that with their ultimate superior position.
If you dig deep enough you’ll probably find that these judges or their spouses are being affected by the tariffs in some way
How soon before the public simply accepts the fact it is okay for a Federal Judge to be arrested?
Just respond with, “we’ll work under the powers given in the Constitution - where these judges aren’t even mentioned”.
Judges of the Federal Circuit are interfering with the President’s vital and constitutionally central role in foreign policy.
Indeed nothing a left judge hates more then someone with more legal power then they do.
It’s why the left are in a group TDS mode.
