US Appeals Court Restores President Trump's Second Round of Tariffs
Townhall ^ | 5/12/26 | Dimitri Bolt

A U.S. Court of Appeals has paused a ruling from the U.S. Court of International Trade (CIT) that had struck down President Trump’s second round of tariffs. They have issued a short-term administrative stay on the CIT's ruling, although they are considering a longer one.

The new set of tariffs was immediately enacted following the Supreme Court’s decision invalidating the original Liberation Day tariffs under the International Emergency Economic Powers Act (IEEPA), and put a baseline 10 percent tariff on all U.S. trading partners.

The new tariffs were originally blocked last Friday.

A U.S. Court of Appeals s has paused a ruling from the U.S. Court of International Trade (CIT) that had struck down President Trump’s second round of tariffs.

And that court is the US Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit, which should have been named in the story, but sadly wasn't.

The only thing they can’t stop the President from doing is war. Now we know why that keeps happening. They took away his non military tool and the result was a war. Who could have seen that coming? Congress is useless. They should have just passed something that explicitly said it was an emergency or explicitly gave the President the ability to do it NOW. What utter garbage.
