Winners and Losers From Trump's New 15% Global Tariff

The tariff, effective for up to 150 days, is expected to increase costs by $600–$800 per household, following a Supreme Court ruling restricting earlier tariff powers.

  • Invoking Section 122, the White House announced President Donald Trump imposed a 15% global tariff after the Supreme Court ruled 6-3 that IEEPA did not grant broad tariff powers.
  • The U.S. Supreme Court ruled 6-3 that the International Emergency Economic Powers Act did not grant broad tariff authority, citing the major questions doctrine, and Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent said the administration will use Sections 232 and 301 instead.
  • Analysts note effective tariff rates shifted from 16% before the ruling to 9.1% after and rose to 13.7% once Section 122 tariffs were imposed by Trump.
  • U.S. consumers and U.S. businesses will bear much of the cost, with researchers projecting average household costs of $600 to $800, while the tariff can remain in effect for 150 days.
  • Around two dozen countries clinched bilateral deals to avoid reciprocal tariffs, raising questions about their future as the European Union and Britain have signalled a desire to retain deals.

The United States and its Western allies have chosen chaos and death, it is not only a question of scaring themselves with a few Nazillions who are experts in thug fighting and of believing themselves in hiding in a group logic but of taking the measure of real fascism, the one whose mutation of Meloni based on nostalgia for the Second World War gave the example of lining up behind the EU and NATO. And this can only be achieved with a much wider…
