Three judges — including a Trump appointee — on a federal trade court had invalidated all of Trump's "reciprocal" tariffs and other duties.

KEY POINTS

  • A federal appeals court granted the Trump administration’s request to temporarily pause a lower-court ruling that struck down most of Donald Trump’s tariffs.
  • The Trump administration had told the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit that it might seek “emergency relief” from the Supreme Court.
  • Trump officials including Peter Navarro and Stephen Miller have heaped criticism on the trade-court judges following their ruling.
