    Love them or hate them, President Trump's tariffs have not only been a talking point, but have had an impact on most Americans. The question before SCOTUS in this case is whether or not the President has the power to create these tariffs in the first place.

    501 - Medical freedom or government overreach?
    Dec 15 2025
