Trump calls six justices a ‘disgrace to the nation’ while praising three justices who dissented
Donald Trump on Friday railed against the supreme court justices who blocked his use of tariffs, calling them a “disgrace to the nation”, and later signing documents imposing a 10% tariff on all countries.
Trump said he would immediately sign an order increasing tariffs globally by 10% under section 122 of the Trade Act of 1974 and will begin investigations of unfair trade practices allowing further tariffs. He asserted that he had the authority to impose additional tariffs under existing statutes without congressional approval.
By Friday evening, Trump posted on Truth Social: “It is my Great Honor to have just signed, from the Oval Office, a Global 10% Tariff on all Countries, which will be effective almost immediately.”
It's always easier when you mentally substitute "economy" with "rich people's yacht money".
Impeachment now.
Just wait until the GENIUS act goes into effect next year!
Aww. They took little Donnys only tool to feel he actually matters.
What exactly is the function of the supreme court if he just does whatever he wants? He just broke the law blatantly. 100%. What will happen to him?
Nothing. No justice. System needs to be rebuilt from the ground up.
He should do 200% fuck it. At this point just let it rip.
They got what the deserved. They got played. You can't make a deal with Trump.
It's too bad he doesn't have a long history of dealings that could be referenced.
Ones that could be referenced by every American before they considered casting their vote for him, right?….Right?
Because it's the bully stick he gets to hit other countries with to get his way ... or just to retaliate against those who offend him.
Also because the on-again off-again arbitrary and unpredictable tariffs are a great opportunity for insider trading for those in his inner circle who are given advanced notice of his capricious changes.
Also because doing random bullshit with tariffs occupies the news cycle and helps distract from a lot of the other bullshit he's doing or has done in the past.
Pretty sure he's got a power kink and loves to watch others suffer.
He’s dying soon and doesn’t have to deal with the repercussions. Also getting scared the Epstein stuff will get to him. It’s a lose lose. Back him into a corner and he’ll blow it all up.
Congress can’t get shit done.
The opposite of pro is con.
So the opposite of progress is...
DIE! You disgusting pedofile child murdering pig
"You can't make me!!"

Rule 1: posts have the following requirements:
- Post news articles only
- Video links are NOT articles and will be removed.
- Title must match the article headline
- Not United States Internal News
- Recent (Past 30 Days)
- Screenshots/links to other social media sites (Twitter/X/Facebook/Youtube/reddit, etc.) are explicitly forbidden, as are link shorteners.
Rule 2: Do not copy the entire article into your post. The key points in 1-2 paragraphs is allowed (even encouraged!), but large segments of articles posted in the body will result in the post being removed. If you have to stop and think "Is this fair use?", it probably isn't. Archive links, especially the ones created on link submission, are absolutely allowed but those that avoid paywalls are not.
Rule 3: Opinions articles, or Articles based on misinformation/propaganda may be removed.
Rule 4: Posts or comments that are homophobic, transphobic, racist, sexist, anti-religious, or ableist will be removed. “Ironic” prejudice is just prejudiced.
Posts and comments must abide by the lemmy.world terms of service UPDATED AS OF OCTOBER 19 2025
Rule 5: Keep it civil. It's OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It's NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
Rule 6: Memes, spam, other low effort posting, reposts, misinformation, advocating violence, off-topic, trolling, offensive, regarding the moderators or meta in content may be removed at any time.
Rule 7: We didn't USED to need a rule about how many posts one could make in a day, then someone posted NINETEEN articles in a single day. Not comments, FULL ARTICLES. If you're posting more than say, 10 or so, consider going outside and touching grass. We reserve the right to limit over-posting so a single user does not dominate the front page.
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
