HUGE if affirmed by courts above (I assume this will make its way to SCOTUS in pretty short order).

My initial comments on today's big ruling in our case against Trump's "Liberation Day" tariffs, with key excerpts from the decision: https://t.co/GT4FTMsx6X

@Natroll__ Si la la Cour suprême suit la jurisprudence actuelle, il est beaucoup plus probable que ce texte soit prononcé comme inconstitutionnel.

@derektmuller Depends which operating system and app you happen to be using at the time...

[Charles Louis de Secondat 🇺🇦 @Secondat7]

@109stitches @JustinWolfers The foreign corporations don't pay the tariff, which is an import tax paid by the importer. The cost generally gets passed on to the consumer (US consumers) who end up paying higher prices and losing purchasing power.

@spqr_xxi @TheStudyofWar And the English monarch laid claim to the French throne until 1802, centuries after there was any realistic prospect for that claim to be effective. Russia's claim over Zaporizhzhia is equally tenuous in practice. And non-existent under international law.

@espinsegall I highly recommend the evening visit. It ends after normal closing time and you get to visit the Sixtine Chapel with almost nobody else in it. You also get to enjoy some Italian specialties and a glass of wine in one of the courtyards at the end of the visit.

@Steven_Strauss Presumably depends on what type of information is sought. I just asked Chat GPT "What does ER equals EPR imply?" It gave me a good enough reply.

@espinsegall @AndyOstroy This is the 1st podcast dealing with US politics that I've listened to since the election. I'm going to crawl back into my hole and avoid the topic some more. The situation is just too frightening to contemplate.

@TrentTelenko Although I fail to understand why any country needs to pass a law to be able to defend its airspace...

@Straight1Too @CommishSmith @HistoryBoomer Plus in all the countries mentioned by the OP, the choice of PM I'd directly linked to the outcome of the parliamentary (general) election, which is not the case in the US. 2/2

[Charles Louis de Secondat 🇺🇦 @Secondat7]

@Straight1Too @CommishSmith @HistoryBoomer In the US the President is for all practical purposes directly elected. There have been very few cases in which the winner of the Presidential election did not get a majority of the popular vote. 1/2

@joshchafetz There's an upside as well as a downside!

@JamesOfNorthEnd @yuanyi_z Sounds like a circular argument.

And that's not what ipse dixit means.

[Charles Louis de Secondat 🇺🇦 @Secondat7]

@chriswratil @stefanauer_hku In some ways, this is a better hypothesis than the Euro. The austerity policy advocated by the German government after the GFC played a role.

[Charles Louis de Secondat 🇺🇦 @Secondat7]

@stefanauer_hku By the way, you are aware that the Euro was introduced on 1.1.1999 right?
