Here are the Trump tariffs that were struck down — then reinstated, for now
As a result, those tariffs have been reinstated for now.
The businesses challenging the tariffs have until June 5 to respond, while the administration has until June 9 to file any reply, the appeals court said.
Earlier: On Wednesday, a federal trade court voided some of the tariffs the Trump administration has imposed as part of its effort to shore up the trade deficit and boost manufacturing.
Less than 24 hours later, a second court, the District Court of Washington, D.C., issued a similar ruling just after noon on Thursday.
The rulings have set the stage for a contentious court fight, as the White House immediately filed an appeal to the initial decision. The Trump administration may ask the U.S. Supreme Court as soon as Friday to pause the rulings, CNBC reported.
In the meantime, under the terms of the initial decision, the U.S. has until June 9 to direct customs officials to cease collections of the import taxes the president imposed under an emergency-powers statute.
These include the "fentanyl tariffs," Trump imposed at the outset of his second term, the "reciprocal tariffs" he announced on April 9 (which so far have extended only to China), and the de minimis tariffs on low-cost imports from China.
The trade court also held that the U.S. must refund the tariffs it has collected under the emergency powers statute. Analysts with Nomura Holdings financial group said that even if Trump ultimately replicates those tariffs using other authorizations, that refund obligation would remain in place.
The rulings inject further uncertainty into the markets and the economy.
In the meantime, assuming the rulings are allowed to fully take effect, here are the tariffs that would, and would not, be affected.
10% universal baseline tariff
20% duties on Chinese goods in response to its alleged failures to combat fentanyl trafficking
10% "reciprocal" duty targeting all Chinese goods
De minimis tariffs on Chinese goods valued at less than $800
25% on auto imports (excluding non-U.S. content of USMCA-compliant autos)
25% on auto parts imports (USMCA-compliant parts exempt)
25% on all steel, aluminum, and aluminum articles

Trump's FCC chair plays coy on Fox News when asked if president involved in Colbert's cancellation
Days after both he and Donald Trump gloated that CBS had canceled Stephen Colbert's late-night show, FCC Chairman Brendan Carr wouldn't give a direct answer when asked on Fox News whether the president played a part in The Late Show's demise. Carr's ambiguity regarding whether Trump was directly involved in the decision to end a long-running program hosted by an outspoken critic of the president comes amid CBS parent company Paramount's pending merger with Skydance Media, which the FCC chief is responsible for approving. Trump's hand-picked top media regulator also took the opportunity on Thursday to say that it's 'entirely possible' that ABC's The View could be in the administration's 'crosshairs' after the White House called View host Joy Behar an 'irrelevant loser' while suggesting 'her show is next to be pulled off air.' Interviewing Carr on Thursday morning's broadcast of America's Newsroom, Fox News anchor Bill Hemmer stated that CBS was still reeling from the fallout from the sudden announcement that Colbert's show will come to an end next year. Hemmer also noted that CBS morning anchor Tony Dokoupil recently broke from his network colleagues – who believe the decision was politically motivated – and defended his corporate bosses. At the same time, Hemmer kicked off the interview with Carr by saying he wanted to get something 'out of the way,' and that was whether Trump had 'anything to do with the cancellation of Stephen Colbert's show.' The Trump official, however, played coy with his response. 'What is important to keep in mind is when President Trump ran for election, he ran right at these legacy broadcast media outfits and the New York and Hollywood elites that are behind it, and he smashed the facade that they are gatekeepers that control what Americans can think and what Americans can say,' Carr responded. 'Once you do that, you have exposed a business model of a lot of these outfits as being nothing more than a partisan circus. So I think there are a lot of consequences that are flowing from President Trump deciding, I won't play by the rules of politicians in the past and let these legacy outfits dictate the narrative and terms of the debate,' he continued. 'He is succeeding.' Carr then went on to suggest that even if Trump hadn't played a direct role in the cancellation of Colbert's show, the president's ongoing war with the legacy media was the key factor in the decision. 'Look at what is happening. NPR has been defunded, PBS has been defunded, Colbert is getting canceled,' the chairman boasted. 'You've got anchors and news media personalities losing jobs downstream of President Trump's decision to stand up. He stood up for the American people. The American people don't trust the legacy gatekeepers anymore.' Hemmer, meanwhile, pointed out that he had asked Carr 'a very direct question,' but 'did not hear a yes or a no in your answer.' Instead, as the Fox anchor noted, he 'heard a maybe.' Carr's non-committal response comes two days after Skydance's general counsel sent him a pair of letters confirming that New Paramount will eliminate all diversity, equity and inclusivity (DEI) policies and hire an ombudsman to review 'complaints of bias' at CBS News once the merger is complete. Additionally, Carr also met with Skydance CEO David Ellison days before it was announced that Colbert was leaving and The Late Show franchise would come to an end. At the meeting, according to regulatory filings, Ellison asked Carr to 'promptly grant' Paramount's request to transfer over its broadcast licenses while promising CBS would be 'unbiased' under the new corporate leadership. The Ellison meeting also took place shortly after Paramount agreed to pay Trump $16 million to settle his 'meritless' lawsuit over a 60 Minutes interview with Kamala Harris, leading Democratic lawmakers and free press groups to threaten lawsuits and criminal investigations into whether Paramount violated anti-bribery laws with the settlement. Colbert himself has called the payoff a 'big fat bribe' in order to help push the merger through, and he has since cast doubt that his show's cancellation was based on a 'purely financial decision,' as Paramount insisted in its announcement. CBS staffers agree with this sentiment. 'Many of us think this was part and parcel of the Trump shakedown settlement,' one network staffer told The Independent. Besides celebrating the Late Show's cancellation, Trump has also repeatedly claimed that he reached a side deal with Skydance as part of the settlement, asserting that Ellison has promised him as much as $20 million in pro-Trump advertisements and PSAs on CBS programming once the merger is complete. Paramount has denied knowledge of any secret behind-the-scenes arrangement with the incoming owner. Elsewhere in the Fox News interview, Hemmer read the White House's recent threatening message to The View, wondering if this meant that the ABC daytime talk show – which is well-known for its anti-Trump stance – is 'now in the crosshairs of this administration.' Carr, who is seen as a MAGA 'attack dog' and loyal foot soldier in Trump's onslaught against the mainstream media, suggested he could soon be taking aim at the show. 'Look, it's entirely possible that there's issues over there,' he replied. 'Stepping back, this broader dynamic [that] once President Trump has exposed these media gatekeepers and smashed this facade, there are a lot of consequences. I think the consequences of that aren't quite finished.' Asked where this could end, Carr said that 'we need a course correction' and it's 'time for America's' legacy broadcasters to return to promoting the public interest.' He then applauded Skydance for committing to eradicating diversity hiring initiatives and hiring an ombudsman before, adding that 'that's where we have to go.'Notably, Carr's remarks about The View come months after he opened an investigation into ABC and its parent company Disney – which paid Trump $16 million last year to settle a defamation suit – over its DEI policies, claiming that the corporation may have violated the FCC's equal employment opportunity regulations. And earlier this year, it was reported that Disney chief Bob Iger explicitly asked The View's hosts to tone down its anti-Trump rhetoric and pull back on political segments.

Get Ready To Thank Tariffs For Making Cheap Cars More Expensive
Brace yourself for an alarming statistic. A whopping 92 percent of new vehicles sold in the U.S. priced under $30,000 are imports. The eight percent that aren't do not exactly constitute a rounding error, but you would not be unfairly criticized if you argued that basically all America's cheap cars come from someplace else. The stat comes from and the site's Industry Insights Report for the first half of 2025, which concludes that the Trump administration's tariffs are "disproportionately affecting" the cheap car market. For the record, the only American-made cars that cost less than 30 grand are not domestic models: we're talking about the stalwart Honda Civic and Toyota Corolla. OK, technically speaking these are "American" cars because they're made in U.S. factories, but the ugly truth is that cheap vehicles from Ford and GM are imports from Mexico, China, and South Korea. According to the study, the supply of these inexpensive rides is going to dry up, triggering price increases as tariffs kick in through the second half of the year. You might ask yourself why the U.S. market relies so heavily on imports to stock the under-$30,000 segment. The answer is high labor costs in America, but that isn't the whole story. Cheap cars aren't very profitable, if they're profitable at all. GM, Ford, and Stellantis (owner of the Jeep, Chrysler, Dodge, and RAM brands) would rather sell you a more expensive pickup truck or large SUV than a compact sedan and are happy to make those vehicles in U.S. plants. Read more: These Are Your Favorite Factory Exhaust Designs Why Are All The Cheap Cars Imported? For decades, the manufacturing of small, cheap vehicles has effectively been outsourced to other countries. This has enabled American companies to remain in the segment. Tariffs are upsetting this arrangement. For auto executives, the way forward is mostly bad. Years ago, I covered a briefing at the Detroit Auto Show by then-FCA CEO Sergio Marchionne, and he was completely unflinching in his assessment of the affordable small-car market in the U.S. It was for the foreign carmakers to dominate, as in his view they had figured out how to make an acceptable margin. When interest rates were low, this arrangement actually wasn't a major issue – buyers simply financed their way into more expensive vehicles, and for years the average transaction price on new cars and trucks has been trending up (although lately its been in moderate retreat). But interest rates aren't low anymore. And with tariffs, cheap cars are about to get more expensive. There was a run on new-car sales in early 2025 when tariffs were announced, as consumers sought to snap up vehicles before the import taxes hit and the automakers rolled out incentives to move the metal off dealer lots. That phase now appears to be ending, and the U.S. market is preparing to accept a new normal. The question is whether more domestic manufacturing will come online or whether carmakers will reduce production as prices invariably rise and demand flags. Could The U.S. Market Remake Itself? I don't see a scenario in which cheap vehicles suddenly aren't imported in droves. So if tariffs aren't dialed back, the entry-level tier is set up for a world of hurt. It's depressing to consider this outcome after decades of Americans enjoying the world's most competitive market and having access to all manner of choice when it comes time to purchase a new set of wheels. Supporters of Trump's tariffs will insist that the policy will force automakers to increase U.S. production, build factories here, and ultimately hire more U.S. workers. But students of Trump's actual motives understand that what he and his trade advisors might actually want is to compel exporters to eat the tariffs, effectively paying a substantial toll for access to the U.S. market. That idea relies on prices somehow not going up, and of course Trump has jawboned the car companies to shield consumers from the well-understood economics of tariffs. They might play along. But that would mean they'll lose even more money on inexpensive cars than they are already. The logical response would be to reduce supply. In the near term, we're likely to see fewer sub-$30,000 cars available as tariffs make life far more unpleasant for the segment. Want more like this?
