It's listening at Breitbart News Daily.

0:17.8

Let's start here with our first of two segments, although we can only play one.

0:23.5

I'll give you the gist of the second segment right now. But the first segment is the background of

0:27.4

this Court of Appeals lawsuit that says Trump is not able, he's not constitutionally able to

0:34.1

enact all these tariffs. So we'll give you the background of it here.

0:38.0

My conclusion is that I don't like that Congress has given so much authority to the

0:44.8

president over the decades to be in charge of tariffs.

0:47.7

I don't like that.

0:48.2

I prefer that Congress be in charge of them for different reasons.

0:52.0

But that's the way it is right now.

0:53.5

So the court is wrong. And I believe the Supreme Court will write this. But I believe the Congress should codify all these tariffs anyway. So the Congress should say, okay, fine. We're in charge of tariffs now. Mr. President, what do you want the tariffs to do? Or what are the trade deals? Here, give me the deals. Show me the deals that you made and we'll just codify him into law.

1:12.1

Why does the president now have the authority to enact these tariffs? just talk about the legality of this, the constitutionality of it, and where this all came from.

1:28.1

Why does the president now have the authority to enact these tariffs? Ready for this way too long analysis?

Here's what happened this weekend.

1:55.6

A lower court ruled, and now an appeals court ruled again against Trump,

2:07.6

7 to 4, saying that the president of the United States does not have the authority to impose tariffs on the rest of the world himself. That's the ruling. The President does not have the authority to impose tariffs.

2:11.6

So all the trade deals that the President assigned and the billions of dollars that have been brought in.

2:20.2

With the EU, with Japan, South Korea, negotiations still ongoing with many other countries.

2:26.2

It's not going well with India at the moment, which is why the president wrote off this tweet,

2:31.2

ripping India the other day, which is great.

2:35.5

China, of course, is the big one.
