• Peter Navarro blasted the 7-4 ruling from a federal appeals court that struck down most of President Donald Trump’s reciprocal tariffs, calling it “weaponized partisan injustice.” He also said the dissent on the court that argued in favor of the tariffs should give the administration a strong case before the Supreme Court.
