54. "A non-treasonous decision from this Supreme Court?"

Fri Feb 20, 2026, 12:23 PM

Feb 20

More like BOTTOM LINE of the over 1000 or more businesses that sued to overturn the tariffs (although obviously individual cases didn't "make the news" ). The companies couldn't suck up anymore.

It's still a "capitalistic country" and even Roberts apparently realizes that you don't mess with the $$$$ (which is also why Lisa Cook wasn't immediately torpedoed off the Federal Reserve Board).
