Trump’s Hormuz Toll Plan Looks a Lot Like a Protection Racket
Trump's Hormuz toll plan would charge ships 20 percent of cargo value for U.S. protection, raising legal, constitutional, and international law questions.https://thedemocracyadvocate.com/news-to-know/trump-watch/trumps-hormuz-toll-plan/

The #Trump admin has also placed other #ICC officials under #sanctions, including the chief #prosecutor, Karim Khan.
Officials under sanction have faced asset freezes, travel bans & restrictions on services from #US companies.
The new lawsuit argues that the sanctions exceeded Trump’s authority under the International Emergency Economic Powers Act [ #IEEPA ] because they were not based on a national emergency & they conflict with international & federal #law.

Six to three. Two Trump-appointed justices struck down his IEEPA tariffs. $159 billion owed in refunds. Sunday's Truth Social meltdown wasn't rage — it was a confession: he thinks the bench owes him loyalty. The court he built is not his to break.

#CBP said in a message to shippers on its Cargo Systems Messaging Service (CSMS) that it will de-activate all #tariff codes associated with Trump's prior #IEEPA related orders as of Tuesday.
The IEEPA tariff collection halt coincides with Trump's imposition of a new, 15% global tariff under a different legal authority to replace the ones struck down by #SCOTUS on Friday.

"Today, I will sign an order to impose a 10% global tariff under Section 122, over & above our normal tariffs already being charged," #Trump said referring to section 122 of the Trade Act of 1974 — which could let the admin continue its tariffs without #IEEPA emergency powers.
He also said all “national security” tariffs under Section 301 remain in place & several “investigations” will be initiated.

#Canada reacting exactly as we all should∶
“The Supreme Court’s decision to strike down the use of #IEEPA tariff powers is a legal ruling, not a reset of #US #trade policy. This is certainly not the last chapter of this never-ending story,” said Candace Laing, the president & chief exec of the Canadian Chamber of Commerce. “Canada should prepare for new, blunter mechanisms to be used to reassert trade pressure, potentially with broader & more disruptive effects.”

https://paulkrugman.substack.com/p/profiles-in-cowardice-tariff-edition. Paul Krugman is absolutely spot-on here, @Nonilex, @ChrisMayLA6. The 6 #Republican #SCOTUS justices must know that the #Trump #tariffs under the 1977 #IEEPA are illegal, but are far too cowardly to say so in public - hence the prolonged delay in the publication of the Supreme Court's judgment.

…During a back and forth with journalists in the Oval Office about the issue, a reporter noted that #SCOTUS Chief Justice #JohnRoberts had asserted that #tariffs were actually #taxes paid by #Americans.
Asked if he agreed that Americans were paying the tariffs, #Trump said: "No, I don't agree. I think that they might be paying something. But when you take the overall impact, the Americans are gaining tremendously."

https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/2025/11/05/tariffs-trump-supreme-court-arguments/. "Beginning in February, #Trump began announcing major #tariffs, claiming authority to do so under #IEEPA, a 1977 law that has typically been used to impose sanctions on foreign countries that pose a threat to the [US]. No president had previously claimed that the law gave them the authority to impose tariffs, & the law does not mention tariffs."

Katyal’s arguments started with a now familiar statement: “Tariffs are taxes,” adding, “Our founders gave that taxing power to Congress alone.”
He went on to say that #Congress knows exactly how to delegate its tariff powers to the executive branch, & every time it has done that it acted “explicitly, always with real limits. #IEEPA looks nothing like those laws.”

#Katyal started off his presentation to the justices by arguing that their decision “comes down to common sense.” He argued that “it’s simply implausible” that when #Congress enacted #IEEPA, it “handed the president the power to overhaul the entire tariff system & the American #economy in the process, allowing him to set & reset tariffs on any & every product from any & every country, at any & all times.”
