No president has previously invoked Section 122, and its use could \u2060lead to further legal challenges.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Trade \u2060experts and congressional aides are skeptical the Republican-majority Congress would extend the tariffs, given polls that show growing numbers of Americans blame \u200cthe duties for higher prices.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In a social media post on Saturday, Trump said he would use the 150-day \u2060period to work on issuing other &#8220;legally permissible&#8221; tariffs. The administration intends to \u2060rely on two other statutes that permit import taxes on specific products or countries based on investigations into national security or unfair trade practices.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;I, as President of the United States of America, will be, effective immediately, raising the 10% Worldwide Tariff on Countries, many of which have been &#8216;ripping&#8217; the U.S. off for decades, without retribution (until I came along!), to the fully \u2060allowed, and legally tested, 15% level,&#8221; he wrote in a Truth Social post.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Section 122 tariffs include exemptions for certain products, including \u2060critical minerals, metals and energy products, according to the White \u200cHouse.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Wendy Cutler, a former senior U.S. trade official and senior vice president at the Asia Society think tank, said she was surprised Trump had not opted for the maximum Section 122 rate on Friday, adding that his rapid-fire change underscored the uncertainty trading partners faced.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Supreme Court&#8217;s decision, authored by Chief Justice John Roberts, concluded the law Trump had used for most of his tariffs, the International Emergency Economic \u200cPowers Act, did not grant the president the powers he claimed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Roberts was joined in the majority by fellow conservatives Neil Gorsuch and Amy Coney Barrett, both Trump appointees, and the court&#8217;s three liberal justices.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Trump reacted with fury to the ruling, calling the justices in the majority &#8220;fools&#8221; and describing Gorsuch and Barrett in particular as &#8220;embarrassments,&#8221; while vowing to continue his global trade war.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Some foreign leaders applauded the decision. French President Emmanuel Macron said on Saturday the ruling showed it is good for democracies to have counterweights to power and the rule of law.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>German Chancellor Friedrich Merz said he expected the decision would ease the burden on German companies. He said he would use his upcoming U.S. trip \u200bto reiterate that &#8220;tariffs harm everyone.&#8221; <a href=\"https:\/\/japantoday.com\/category\/world\/after-court-ruling-trump-says-us-global-tariff-rate-will-rise-from-10-to-15\">(JapanToday)<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p> <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>President Donald Trump said on Saturday he will raise a temporary tariff from 10% to 15% on U.S. imports from all countries, the maximum level allowed under the law, after the U.S. Supreme \u200cCourt&nbsp;struck down his previous tariff program.
