0:00.0 | Trade Court has blocked most of President Trump's trade tariffs. |
0:05.0 | A three-judge panel on the International Court of Trade yesterday ruled that the President |
0:11.0 | did not have the authority to impose the sweeping tariffs. |
0:16.0 | The judges found that Trump's use of the decades-old International Emergency Economic Powers Act did not, quote, |
0:23.3 | delegate an unbounded tariff authority to the president and that Trump's tariffs lacked, |
0:30.0 | quote, any identifiable limits. Lawyers for the Trump administration have already said that they will appeal. |

1:44.1 | We'll see what they say when the Trump administration asked for a stay. |
1:48.4 | Knight, have you spoken to the president? |
