Handing defeats to Trump, Supreme Court signals potential course change

The Supreme Court spent a year signing off on nearly every policy of President Donald Trump that came before it, but in a sharp reversal Friday, the justices struck down what is arguably the centerpiece of his agenda — his sweeping tariffs.

That decision along with a ruling in late December blocking Trump’s deployment of the National Guard to Chicago marked the justices’ first significant rulings against the president. More may be on the way. Last month, the justices expressed skepticism during arguments on Trump’s efforts to remove Lisa Cook from the Federal Reserve Board.
