Illegal Tariffs Ruled Illegal (Again)

The Conservative Supreme Court justices can’t agree on what the major questions doctrine is and what exceptions to it should be. 

The Supreme Court made a major change in how lower courts operate by limiting nationwide injunctions. Such injunctions could have prevented the US government from illegally taking all this money in the first place and avoided the issue of if, when, and to whom, the tariff money is paid back. This policy allows the president to act illegally for months or years until the Supreme Court finally resolves a case.
