Toronto 🇨🇦 On June 2, 2006 the U.S. E.E.O.C., Miami, Florida in case #510200600705 issued me the right to sue my former employer under Title VII U.S. Disability Act. Also, I was targeted by Wikileaks on July 22, 2016. The retaliation continues to this day!

Liberal justices somewhat trollishly embrace two legal theories most often deployed by the court’s right-leaning justices against Democratic presidents to convince conservatives that the president had significantly overstepped his authority.

A Supreme Court win for the administration in the tariffs case would mean that presidents can simply declare emergencies in order to act without congressional authorization. In many instances, the president would be able to circumvent laws that would otherwise prohibit their actions. bit.ly/43OZTxQ

What’s at Stake in the Supreme Court Tariffs Case

If the Court blesses the president’s use of emergency powers to evade Congress, the consequences would be profound.

Lawyer: The Constitution, our framers, and 238 years of American history all say only Congress has the power to impose tariffs on the American people. Tariffs are nothing but taxes on the American people, paid by Americans. This case is about upholding the separation of powers.

PM Carney: "In this budget, we're putting in place a $2 billion sovereign fund for critical minerals… That is as big as what the US and Australia put together—with a big announcement in the Oval Office a few weeks ago. We're doing the same, and we're doing it right here—because we have the minerals"

Oregon Attorney General: Trump's Solicitor General looked Justice Roberts squarely in the eyes and said the American people, not foreign countries, are going to pay 30 to 80% of these tariffs. And then he had the gall to say that these are not taxes on the American people
