Trump's global tariffs face court

President Trump’s signature trade policy is back under legal scrutiny as judges in New York weigh the validity of his latest global tariffs.

The administration imposed the 10% levies in February after the Supreme Court struck down earlier, more sweeping duties.

Opponents argue the new taxes are based on an outdated 1974 law and will further fuel domestic inflation.

The President has described the tariffs as 'life or death' for the U.S. economy, while critics warn they are damaging international alliances and hurting American consumers.
