Trump: "We have a thing called a war, or as they would rather say, a military operation. It's for legal reasons. Because as a military operation, I don't need any approvals. As a war you're supposed to get approval from Congress. Something like that. So I call it a military operation."

Tariff case: the last time a president's action of this magnitude was struck down by the Supreme Court it was the 1952 Youngstown Steel case, which was also decided by a 6-3 vote. There will always be apologists for vast presidential power, but so far a healthy majority for a check on that power.
