September 2, 2025- A divided U.S. appeals court ruled on Friday that most of Donald Trump’s tariffs are illegal, according to Reuters. The court allowed the tariffs to remain in place through October 14 to give the Trump administration a chance to file an appeal with the U.S. Supreme Court. Last Friday’s 7-4 appeals court decision tossed out a part of that ruling striking down the tariffs immediately, however the court’s ruling doesn’t cover all of President Trump’s tariffs. For instance, his levies on foreign steel, aluminum and autos were imposed under a different regulation after Commerce Department investigations concluded that those imports were threats to U.S. national security, according to CBS News.
