Trump Raises Tariffs to 15% After Supreme Court Ruling

About this episode

# Podcast Episode Summary

In this explosive episode of *News Today: Global News*, host Marcus Ellery breaks down President Trump's dramatic response to a Supreme Court ruling that struck down his emergency tariffs. Just hours after six justices declared his sweeping duties unconstitutional, Trump raised the stakes—announcing an immediate tariff hike from 10% to 15% on global imports using alternative legal authority.

The president's defiant move, which he justified under the Trade Act of 1974, targets 150 days of new levies and comes with fiery rhetoric calling the court's decision "anti-American." This high-stakes gambit threatens to reshape global trade relationships, from EU negotiations to everyday consumer prices, while setting up an unprecedented showdown between executive power and judicial oversight.

As businesses scramble for clarity and families brace for higher costs, this episode captures the uncertainty rippling through markets worldwide and examines what this bold escalation means
