Trump Urges Supreme Court to Restore Presidential Tariff Powers

By Christina Shaw | Fox News Treasury warns striking down tariffs could force refund of $159B already collected since August The Trump administration asked the Supreme Court Wednesday to quickly make a decision on whether President Donald Trump has the authority to impose his sweeping tariffs under federal emergency law. This appeal is a result of a federal appeals court ruling 7-4 that a vast majority of Trump’s tariffs were illegal according to the 1977 International Emergency Economic Powers Act even though it allowed the duties to remain until the case was resolved. Many states and small businesses challenged Trump’s tariffs in a lawsuit saying they were causing serious economic harm. "These unlawful tariffs are inflicting serious harm on small businesses and jeopardizin...

By Jeff Childers | Commentary, Coffee & Covid Good morning, C&C, it’s Thursday! And it’s a C&C special edition. Things are moving faster than we dreamed possible.

Well, it only took two days. Yesterday, the Washington Post ran a story headlined, “Florida plans to become first state to eliminate all childhood vacci...

Griswold vows to defend Colorado mail-in voting from Trump’s America First agenda

By Micah Smith | Denver7 DENVER – Colorado Secretary of State Jena Griswold has vowed to fight a potential executive order from President Donald Trump that would eliminate mail-in ballots and voting machines.

According to a Rasmussen poll released Monday, nearly two-thirds of voters (65%) are following declassified releases over the past month by Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard and Sen. Chuck Grassley (R-Iowa) “very closely” (32%) or “somewhat closely” (33%), repudiating the calculated media silence about the Obama administration’s fake narratives and manipulation of intelligence to frame Trump as a Kremlin ...

In 2024 election, more voters identified as Republican, flipping a trend dating to FDR

By Sandy Fitzgerald  | Newsmax The 2024 election featured far more Republicans than Democrats in the electorate, reversing a longtime trend in party identification dating back to the New Deal in the 1930s.

‘A child would know’ better: Trump blasts Biden’s disastrous Afghanistan withdrawal

By Shawn Fleetwood | The Federalist On Friday, Donald Trump blasted Joe Biden for his “horribly” managed 2021 withdrawal from Afghanistan that got 13 American service members killed. The moment came during a three-hour conversation between the former president and comedian Joe Rogan on the latter’s “Joe Rogan Experience” podcast. The men were discussing the implications of U.S. foreign policy under Biden and Russia’s invasion of Ukraine. Trump said he believed Russian President Vladimir Putin “would have never” invaded Ukraine if he was still president, and contended the “number one” reason Putin launched his offensive is because “he doesn’t respect Biden at all.” READ THE FULL STORY AT THE FEDERALIST
