WASHINGTON - The U.S. Supreme Court on Monday turned away a challenge to President Donald Trump's tariffs on imported steel brought by an industry group that argued that a key part of the law under which he imposed the duties violates the U.S. Constitution.
Trump imposed 25% tariffs on imported steel and 10% tariffs on imported aluminum in March 2018 based on national security grounds. Exemptions have been granted to Argentina, Australia, Brazil and South Korea in exchange for quotas. Canada and Mexico were exempted in May. In response, both countries lifted their retaliatory tariffs on the United States.
When the lower court rejected the challenge, the steel group chose to appeal directly to the Supreme Court instead of taking the case to a regional federal appeals court first.
Democrats can no longer get their way by using the Courts.

Bolsonaro’s Conservative Agenda Is Tested in Brazilian Supreme CourtWhen Brazilian President Jair Bolsonaro took office in January, he promised to defend what he calls traditional-family values, loosen gun laws and push the nation to the right after decades of mostly leftist rule. But six months into Mr. Bolsonaro’s administration, the Supreme Court is proving to be a powerful obstacle to his conservative agenda. Going to the right is the only solution to the countries significant problems, most rational people from Brazil would agree. Socialism is not yet viable in such a country... too much violence, illegal activity and corruption at all levels of society. You need pure capitalism... build a country up before you slowly improve the social safety nets and benefits to a sustainable and responsible level. Six month of nothing!

Supreme Court rules for black death row inmate over prosecutor's racial biasUS Supreme Court has reversed the conviction of a Mississippi death row inmate who said the state prosecutor repeatedly kicked black people off the jury each time he was tried for the same murders. Justice was not blind and blatantly bigoted for years with this case. The White prosecutor should be jailed for incompetency, racism & he should be disbarred! Bravo to the SCOTUS for righting a horrible injustice! DISGUSTING!!! Back to The Jim Crow South. This is a dilemma. It's not justice if not applied the same across the board, regardless of race. However, he could be guilty? I stick by the preceding statement. 10 guilty men should go free before 1 innocent man is convicted. True statement.
