The U.S. Supreme Court ruled with the administration of former President Donald Trump over President Joe Biden’s administration in a case involving steel tariffs.
The Trump administration’s decision to implement the tariffs, according to USP Holdings, was unlawful, the company said in an appeal that was turned down by lower courts. The Biden administration battled against USP Holdings and other steel importers who claimed the tariffs had harmed them while mostly maintaining the current level of duties.
“Trump cited Section 232 of the Trade Act of 1962, which permits the president to impose restrictions on the importation of goods deemed essential to national security. He said at the time that the tariffs were needed to bolster the production of airplanes, ships, and military materials with U.S. steel. The tariffs created tension with some U.S. allies, although some countries were exempted from the policy,” the report added.
“The Supreme Court turned away the petition in USP Holdings Inc. v. United States, court file 22-565, in an unsigned order. The court didn’t explain its decision. No justices dissented from the order. In April 2017, then-Commerce Secretary Wilbur Ross commenced an investigation to determine whether “steel was being imported under such circumstances as to threaten or impair national security,” according to the petition (pdf) filed with the Supreme Court,” it continued.
Immediately following round three of his indictments this week, Trump turned to the Supreme Court demandign they stop Biden’s ‘Election Interference,’ which he believes his successor is involved in with this latest round of legal action.
In response to “Election Interference” by his political rival, Joe Biden, Trump has gone to his social media platform, Truth Social, to express his ire. Trump accused Biden and his friends of employing a flood of feeble lawsuits to drain his money and time, impeding his prospective 2024 campaign, in a strident post.
Trump outlined the difficulties he faced in his role, including the District Attorney’s and Attorney General’s legal activities, among other difficulties. He argued that fighting these legal claims will now require more resources and effort than would otherwise be used for rallies and marketing.
The former President did not hold back in branding his rivals as “Radical Left Thugs” and emphasized that he is ahead in every poll, including the one pitting him against Joe Biden. Trump said that the circumstance had resulted in an uneven playing field, which amounted to electoral meddling. He concluded his speech by urging the Supreme Court to step in and was followed by his catchphrase, “MAGA!”
“CRAZY! My political opponent has hit me with a barrage of weak lawsuits, including D.A., A.G., and others, which require massive amounts of my time & money to adjudicate,” Trump wrote. “Resources that would have gone into Ads and Rallies, will now have to be spent fighting these Radical Left Thugs in numerous courts throughout the Country.”
“I am leading in all Polls, including against Crooked Joe, but this is not a level playing field. It is Election Interference, & the Supreme Court must intercede,” he finished.
Trump pleaded not guilty in connection with his January 6th indictment. He lamented what he called a “very sad day for America.”
“Thank you very much. This is a very sad day for America. And it was also very sad driving through Washington, D.C. and seeing the filth and the decay and all of the broken buildings and walls and the graffiti,” Trump said, painting a bleak picture of the nation’s capital. “This is not the place that I left. It’s a very sad thing to see it.”
“So if you can’t beat him, you persecute him or you prosecute him. We can’t let this happen in America.”
Now that Trump has entered his plea, attention is turning to the upcoming judicial battle, which promises to be heated and rife with political ramifications. The case, which was already notable for the well-known defendant, continues to garner attention due to the vehement arguments made by all parties.
Judge Chutkan will preside over the case’s first hearing, which is scheduled for August 28, 2023, at 10 a.m., according to reports. Trump was informed by Judge Upadhyaya that should he violate the conditions of his release, it would be grounds for the issuance of an arrest warrant, which may result in his potential imprisonment, as is customary in arraignments.
As part of the Special Counsel’s investigation into the Capitol incident on January 6, former President Donald J. Trump was charged on four counts on Tuesday.
Later on Thursday, Trump claimed that the American people’s honor was served by his approaching arrest. Trump stated that the persecution of him is a part of a broader problem in America prior to his presence in D.C. He wrote, “I am now going to Washington, D.C., to be arrested for having challenged a corrupt, rigged, & stolen election. It is a great honor, because I am being arrested for you. Make America Great Again!”
