31.05.2025 โข The Day Steel Tariffs Doubled
โจTrump announced steel tariffs would double from 25% to 50% during a Pittsburgh rally at U.S. Steel's facility, escalating his trade agenda after yesterday's court battles over tariff authority. The announcement accompanied a deal allowing Japan's Nippon Steel to acquire the American steelmaker, with Trump promising workers they would "stay an American company."
Courts continued blocking Trump's constitutional authority across multiple fronts. The 9th Circuit ruled his mass federal employee firing order "far exceeds" constitutional limits, while legal experts questioned whether his tariffs could survive ongoing challenges. The White House responded by escalating attacks on judges following the rulings.
Elon Musk's departure from DOGE became increasingly contentious, with reports that Trump had asked Musk if DOGE was "BS" and called him half "boy" before their collaboration ended. The administration expanded immigration enforcement using little-known laws to criminally charge migrants.
Hamas rejected the latest ceasefire proposal, with Trump's envoy calling their response "completely unacceptable."
