Trump to come face-to-face with Supreme Court justices who rejected tariffs at State of the Union
Ask who never gets charged.
President Donald Trump will face the Supreme Court justices who handed him the most significant legal loss of his presidency when he delivers his first formal State of the Union address of his second term on Tuesday.
The Supreme Court ruled 6-3 on Friday that the International Emergency Economic Powers Act does not authorize the president to impose tariffs, striking down the sweeping “Liberation Day” tariffs that have been a cornerstone of Trump’s economic and foreign relations policy. The president is now set to come face-to-face on Capitol Hill with at least some of the justices who struck down his tariffs, and whom he has criticized following the ruling. Should Trump criticize the ruling or the high court itself to their faces during his address, he would not be the only president to do so.
Trump has become sharply critical of the justices after tariff ruling
Since the tariff ruling came down at roughly 10 a.m. on Friday, Trump has been deeply critical of the high court’s decision. The president described the ruling as a “disgrace,” privately cursing “these f***ing courts,” upon initially hearing of the Supreme Court’s decision.
Hours later, Trump called a press conference regarding the Supreme Court’s ruling, decrying it as “deeply disappointing” and tearing into the justices who joined the majority in striking down his tariffs.
“I’m ashamed of certain members of the court, absolutely ashamed for not having the courage to do what’s right for our country,” Trump said.
Trump accused “certain justices” on the high court of ruling against him on tariffs to be “politically correct” and accused the Supreme Court of being swayed by foreign interests.
He showered praise on Justice Brett Kavanaugh for his dissent, along with commending justices Clarence Thomas and Samuel Alito for not joining the majority ruling.
When asked if the Supreme Court justices would be invited to his State of the Union address, Trump said that they were still invited — but “barely.”
“Three are happily invited,” Trump said. “They’re barely invited. Honestly, I couldn’t care less if they come.”
