Costco Sues Trump Seeking Full Refunds of Tariffs

"Costco filed a lawsuit asking for a full refund of tariffs the warehouse club giant has paid since President Donald Trump imposed “reciprocal” and “fentanyl” tariffs earlier this year."

"Costco’s suit in the U.S. Court of International Trade notes that it might not be able to get the refunds later, even if the Supreme Court upholds lower court rulings that the tariffs are illegal."

“The core Congressional power to impose taxes such as tariffs is vested exclusively in the legislative branch by the Constitution,” the Federal Circuit said in its ruling." “Tariffs are a core Congressional power.”

Let's all file a class-action lawsuit against Trump and his administration. He's cost us all so much money, and for no good reason. He's like an arsonist who starts the fire, then puts it out, then takes credit for saving the day, all the while completely oblivious to his role in the disaster.
