It is not a clearcut case: the Heritage Foundation supports the government's position, the Federalist Society opposes it.
As of yesterday, Polymarket's betting line gives a slight edge to the government's case failing: you need bet $.48 to win a dollar if you think the tariffs will be upheld, whereas a decision striking the tariffs require $.53.
Get ready to lose Free Traitors.
If 47 loses in SCOTUS, P. Navarro said on Maria this AM that they have a Plan B - which they are keeping quiet until after SCOTUS rules.
I’d say just a plan B is not enough, because I know the left is united in hate.
Ok yeah written by Erwin Chemerinsky. LOL. You just know it is going to be an honest evaluation of the constitutional issues at play.
I disagree with this point. The consequences will be limited, and these tariffs will be no more consequential than a Trump executive order renaming the “Gulf of Mexico” to the “Gulf of America.”
I wouldn’t be surprised if the Trump administration loses this case by a 9-0 margin in the Supreme Court.
Your complete misunderstanding of global economics never ceases to amaze.
Also all of you FreeTraitors better to get ready to lose. Your globalist/marxist experiment is about to be put down .
Why, if it isn’t Johnny One-Note, endlessly spewing the same tired insults.
If you are so confident, you should really visit that gaming site I mentioned. You’ll double your money if these tariffs are upheld. You’re welcome!
Way too many people on the right are ignoring the bolded distinction because they support tariffs.
I do think there is another potential question - even if SCOTUS were to find that the IEEPA authorizes these tariffs - though I don't think they will - they could then argue that it was such a complete delegation of legislative authority so as to be unconstitutional on that ground.
I think it goes down at least 6-3. But, the President can then ask Congress to pass those same tariffs, and perhaps it will.
And your expertise is …?
I wouldn't either.
Exactly. I support tariffs in principle, but I also understand the bolded distinction you posted.
I watched the USA de industrialize over the last 30. To be an expert just drive around and look at all the dead factory towns. I am worried if you traitors lose we will see violence from that evil faction.
Trump and America will win. Will you globalists Free Traitors get violent when you lose? After all you Free Traitors are part of the political left wing.
Driving around dead factory towns does not make you a Constitutional authority.
“I am worried if you traitors lose we will see violence from that evil faction.”
Who’s the “evil faction”?
lol but the left loves taxes right🤔😎
Your "FreeTraitor" schtick proves one thing - that when it comes to the Constitution, you are as results-oriented as the worst of the left. Right at home with the Wise Latina and KBJ.
Whether these tariffs are a good idea or not is irrelevant. What matters is whether: 1) they are authorized by the IEEPA, and 2) the IEEPA - if interpreted that broadly - is an unconstitutional delegation of legislative authority.
Whether or not the tariffs are good economic policy is a non-issue.
By that thinking are not regulations that increase costs also “taxes”🤔🤔🤔🤔
Something dims also love😂
You and all Free Traitors are part of the left. The left has been getting violent lately. Free Traitors may become unhinged when you lose.
