Donald Trump claimed in a late-night social media post Sunday that he has the "absolute right" to impose tariffs after the Supreme Court ruled many of his import duties from last year were illegal. The president attacked the court for lacking loyalty and said he has already begun imposing new tariffs under different legal authority, with his administration launching trade investigations that could lead to permanent duties to replace those the court struck down.
