The majority of the sweeping tariffs Donald Trump imposed during his second term face one final litmus test that will determine whether he can continue to levy them – and also whether businesses are eligible for massive refunds.
That potentially dramatic turn in the tariff saga comes after a federal appeals court ruled on Friday that Trump unlawfully leaned on the International Emergency Economic Powers Act (IEEPA) to impose across-the-board duties on countries.
Trump had used those powers to push import tax rates as high as 50% on India and Brazil – and as high as 145% on China earlier this year.
Yeah I feel like this was already expected or part of some master plan. The companies didn’t lose because they passed it on to the consumer and then they’re gonna get money on top of it.
OMG stop. We’ve elected conspiracy theorists already and things are going to shit. We need to stop conspiratorial thinking.
Is it really conspiratorial when the Commerce Secretary’s kids are literally selling financial products that pretty much assume the tariffs will be tossed in court? Sure as fuck seems to me like they planned this based on their already existing actions.

Yes, yes it is. Accusations raised about grand conspiracy between companies and government with zero evidence provided other than “I feel like” is a conspiracy theory.

So - relevant evidence not just any evidence of anything. Jesus Christ. Evidence of “Crime A” can’t be used to support “Crime B”.
This is what you said. I provided a well sourced article that literally confirms this was expected/planned and you’re claiming that’s not relevant? Yeah, I’m good with not talking to you anymore.
