SCOTUS Hands Trump ‘Most Significant’ Loss in Modern History

CBS News’ chief legal correspondent, Jan Crawford, said the court’s 6-3 ruling against Trump marked the most significant U.S Supreme Court loss for a U.S. president “in modern history.”

“It is invalidating what is the cornerstone of President Trump’s economic policy, ruling that he does not have authority under this federal law—The International Emergency Economic Powers Act—to levy these sweeping tariffs on almost every global trading partner worldwide,” she said.
