<p>WASHINGTON — President Donald Trump signed a global 10% tariff on all countries Friday evening following the Supreme Court&#8217;s ruling blocking his tariffs earlier in the day.</p>
<p>The president announced Friday evening that it was his &#8220;great honor&#8221; to have signed &#8220;a Global 10% Tariff on all Countries, which will be effective almost immediately.&#8221; The move is intended to address the fundamental international payment problems, the White House said, and to continue the Trump administration&#8217;s work to rebalance trade relationships in order to benefit American workers.</p>
<p>Trump is invoking his authority under section 122 of the Trade Act of 1974, empowering him to address &#8220;certain fundamental international payment problems through surcharges and other special import restrictions,&#8221; the White House clarified in a fact sheet. The proclamation imposes a 10% ad valorem import duty on all articles imported into the U.S. for 150 days, taking effect February 24 at 12:01 a.m.</p>
<p>&#8220;By taking this action, the United States can stem the outflow of its dollars to foreign producers and incentivize the return of domestic production,&#8221; the fact sheet states. &#8220;By increasing its domestic production, the United States can correct its balance-of-payments deficit, while also creating good paying jobs, and lowering costs for consumers.&#8221;</p>
<p>The move came after the Supreme Court basically struck down Trump&#8217;s reciprocal tariffs on dozens of countries in a 6-3 decision, saying that the president does not have the authority to impose those broad-scale tariffs. Trump, in a White House press briefing on Friday and in subsequent social media posts, said repeatedly that he is &#8220;ashamed&#8221; of the Supreme Court justices who ruled against him for &#8220;not having the Courage to do what is right for our Country.&#8221;</p>
<p>In a Truth Social post on Friday night, he praised Justices Clarence Thomas, Brett Kavanaugh, and Samuel Alito for their &#8220;Strength, Wisdom, and Love of our Country.&#8221;</p>

<p>&#8220;When you read the dissenting opinions, there is no way that anyone can argue against them,&#8221; Trump said. &#8220;Foreign Countries that have been ripping us off for years are ecstatic, and dancing in the streets — But they won’t be dancing for long! The Democrats on the Court are thrilled, but they will automatically vote &#8216;NO&#8217; against ANYTHING that makes America Strong and Healthy Again.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;They, also, are a Disgrace to our Nation,&#8221; Trump added. &#8220;Others think they’re being &#8216;politically correct,&#8217; which has happened before, far too often, with certain Members of this Court when, in fact, they’re just FOOLS and &#8216;LAPDOGS&#8217; for the RINOS and Radical Left Democrats and, not that this should have anything to do with it, very unpatriotic, and disloyal to the Constitution. It is my opinion that the Court has been swayed by Foreign Interests, and a Political Movement that is far smaller than people would think — But obnoxious, ignorant, and loud!&#8221;</p>
<p>Trump said that the case was extremely important to him, symbolizing economic and national security more &#8220;than anything else.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;The Good News,&#8221; the president said, &#8220;is that there are methods, practices, Statutes, and other Authorities, as recognized by the entire Court and Congress, that are even stronger than the IEEPA TARIFFS, available to me as President of the United States of America and, in actuality, I was very modest in my &#8216;ask&#8217; of other Countries and Businesses because I wanted to do nothing that could sway the decision that has been rendered by the Court.&#8221;</p>
<p>According to the White House, there are some goods that won&#8217;t be subject to the import duty, such as certain critical minerals, natural resources and fertilizers that can&#8217;t be grown or produced in the U.S., pharmaceuticals, electronics, passengers vehicles, certain aerospace products, and more.</p>
