Trump TARIFF NIGHTMARE Meets Its FATE in NY Court - Legal AF
Melba Pearson and Dina Doll break down a major legal challenge to Trump’s tariff policy, now being heard by the little-known but powerful Court of International Trade. At the center of the case: whether Trump exceeded his authority under the International Emergency Economic Powers Act by imposing tariffs without a legitimate emergency.
With small businesses suffering and a three-judge panel set to rule, Melba and Dina explain why this court could deliver a critical check on executive power and shape the future of U.S. trade policy. - 05/13/2025.
