In the latest display of judicial overreach, a U.S. Court of Appeals has ruled against the tariffs imposed by former President Trump, declaring them illegal. These judges, perched high in their ivory towers, have forgotten the vital authority endowed upon our president to shield the interests of the American workers against unfair foreign competition.
This isn’t just about trade. It’s about defending America’s economic sovereignty. Trump, a true patriot, knew that tariffs were not just pieces of paper with numbers. They are weapons in the fight to bring manufacturing jobs back home, open up foreign markets, and reduce the staggering trade deficit that has plagued us for decades. But the liberal judges seem more interested in appeasing globalist elites than protecting American jobs.

Oklahoma’s Senator Lankford stands firm as a beacon of sanity in this chaotic situation. He insists that the matter will advance to the Supreme Court, ensuring the battle for economic justice continues. Under Trump, ten trade deals were struck with powerhouse nations like the UK, EU, and Japan. These deals didn’t just appear out of thin air—they were the result of bold, unapologetic America-first policies. But no, the courts act like a beacon of obstruction against real progress.
The root of this case, the International Emergency Economic Powers Act, was signed into law by none other than Jimmy Carter in 1977. Here we are decades later, with liberal jurists misinterpreting and misusing it to kneecap a president who dared to think differently, who dared to defy the status quo.
Isn’t it ironic that those who decry foreign interference are now siding with interests that jeopardize American prosperity? The liberal elite and their judicial echo chamber seem to have one mission: to reverse any decision that dares to put America first.
So the question ain’t whether Trump’s tariffs were justified. The real question is whether the left can ever stop second-guessing the decisions that truly make America great again.
