Liberation Day From Liberation Day
The Court of International Trade held today that most of the Administration's tariffs are unlawful. The Supreme Court might as well cancel its summer vacation. Presumably, the Administration will want review on the merits quickly. A stay pending appeal is not that helpful here, as no foreign nation will negotiate on trade issues when the legality of the tariffs is doubtful. We'll see if this decision pries Abrego Garcia loose from El Salvador, as I speculated a few weeks ago.
