| 0:00.0 | Hey, from CNN. I'm AfomaDK, with the five things you need to know for Friday, February 20th. |
| 0:08.1 | President Donald Trump says he'll impose a 10% global tariff on top of the levees already in place |
| 0:13.2 | after the Supreme Court ruled that his signature tariffs are illegal. |
| 0:17.0 | The Supreme Court's ruling on tariffs is deeply disappointing, and I'm ashamed of certain |

| 1:12.1 | Even if courts require the federal government to refund tariffs, that's not likely to be shared |

| 1:19.7 | Stephanie Roth over at Wolf Research, she told me companies are highly unlikely to start |
| 1:23.5 | trimming their prices as a result. |
| 1:25.2 | She said, Walmart's not going to give you a check for the 15% |
