Of the other conservatives justices who voted to knock down his tariffs — Chief Justice #JohnRoberts & Justices #AmyConeyBarrett & Neil #Gorsuch — Trump said, “they’re just being fools & lapdogs for the RINOs & radical left Democrats.”

#SCOTUS’ decision was 6-3.
Justices #ClarenceThomas, Samuel #Alito & Brett #Kavanaugh dissented.
Writing for the majority, Chief Justice #JohnRoberts said the #statute does not authorize the president to impose #tariffs.

“The president asserts the extraordinary power to unilaterally impose tariffs of unlimited amount, duration, & scope. In light of the breadth, history, & constitutional context of that asserted authority, he must identify clear congressional authorization to exercise it.”

Meanwhile, the other 7 justices have figured out how to manage their finances without being ethical drags upon the Court [in terms of stock investments only. #ClarenceThomas is absolutely an ethical drag]. The #SupremeCourt took over 2 years to institute a new #software solution to fix a problem that exists solely because these 2 refuse to divest from the market as a small price to pay for being the nation’s SuperLegislature.
