Sen. John Kennedy, R-La., offered an optimistic perspective on the Supreme Court\u2019s tariff ruling, arguing the “grizzly” in the Oval Office should view it as a win.<\/p>\n

In a 6-3 ruling Friday,<\/a> the high court struck down President Donald Trump\u2019s global tariff authority under the International Emergency Economic Powers Act (IEEPA).\u00a0<\/p>\n

Despite the legal setback<\/a>, Kennedy argued Trump\u2019s use of tariffs has secured strong trade deals and could boost the economy.<\/p>\n

“Stevie Wonder could see this decision coming,” Kennedy said Sunday on “Fox & Friends Weekend.”<\/a><\/p>\n

Democrats lauded the Supreme Court\u2019s<\/a> ruling as a victory, arguing tariffs raise prices for everyday Americans. Kennedy, however, questioned what will happen with the tariff revenue already collected.<\/p>\n

“My Democratic colleagues are saying, \u2018Oh, give it back, give back,\u2019” he said.<\/p>\n

“My Democratic peeps better be careful what they ask for, because if he gives back $300 billion worth of tariff money to the business community in America, this economy’s [going to] roar<\/a>, man, and the midterms are only a few months off,” Kennedy added.<\/p>\n

In January alone, tariff revenue totaled<\/a> $30.4 billion, a 275% increase compared to January 2025. The White House said the funds could help pay for domestic initiatives and reduce the national debt.<\/p>\n

“The president didn’t just sit around admiring that trade authority, that tariff authority,<\/a> sucking on his teeth. He used it, and he used it to negotiate trade agreements,” Kennedy said.<\/p>\n

Tariffs have become a signature point of the second Trump administration. In 2025, the president declared the country\u2019s trade deficit a “national emergency,” asserting that the IEEPA allowed him to assume broad tariff authority.<\/p>\n

“He believes in being a bear. And he thinks if you\u2019re [going to] be a bear, be a grizzly,” Kennedy said of Trump\u2019s aggressive trade strategy<\/a>.<\/p>\n

In response to the Supreme Court ruling, the president signed a new order Friday afternoon imposing a 10% global tariff under separate legal authority.<\/p>\n

“It is my Great Honor to have just signed, from the Oval Office, a Global 10% Tariff on all Countries, which will be effective almost immediately,” Trump wrote<\/a> on Truth Social on Friday.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
