We're also going to talk about the major Supreme Court decision that came down this week. The Supreme Court struck down President Trump's use of tariffs, the centerpiece of his economic policy abroad. The Supreme Court said that the statute he used to impose those tariffs, a statute called ipa, does not give him the authority to do so. We're going to explain what that decision was all about, what the court held in particular, what happens next. What does this mean? Does this mean Trump can't use tariffs? (01:01–01:10)
