The Trump-Kennedy Center was hit by what officials described as a “calculated, malicious attack” Friday after a toxic substance was poured across its outdoor ice rink, forcing the cancellation of a scheduled performance, according to Fox News.

A center official said a dark brown-black substance was deliberately spread across the ice surface, severely damaging the outdoor rink. Images from the scene show a large section of the ice covered with the substance, and a plastic gallon-size jug left behind.

A legal scholar on Friday zeroed in on Justice Brett Kavanaugh’s dissent in the Supreme Court’s sweeping tariff ruling, saying it stood out not just for its shaky legal footing but for how closely it mirrored the government’s arguments.

In an interview on CNN, NYU law professor Ryan Goodman said he was struck by Kavanaugh’s role in the three-justice dissent – and by how the majority responded to it.

A legal scholar and former Pentagon official warned Friday that President Donald Trump’s attacks on the Supreme Court following his tariff defeat could send a troubling signal across the court system.

Appearing on CNN, NYU professor Ryan Goodman, a former Department of Defense special counsel, said Trump’s rhetoric toward the justices in the aftermath of his sweeping loss at the high court was “very disturbing and unfair.”

An irate President Donald Trump wasn't finished blasting the Supreme Court over his tariff loss, unleashing yet another fiery tirade on Truth Social, expressing his fury at two of his own Supreme Court appointees for what he characterized as a courtroom betrayal.

Trump took direct aim at right-wing Justices Neil Gorsuch and Amy Coney Barrett, claiming they sided against Republicans in a decision he views as catastrophic.

President Donald Trump lashed out again Friday evening at members of the Supreme Court who voted against his tariff policy, calling their decision "ridiculous" and vowing to work around the loss.

The Supreme Court struck down Trump’s sweeping emergency tariffs in a 6–3 decision authored by conservative Chief Justice John Roberts. The justices held that the underlying statute does not clearly authorize such broad unilateral tariff powers, marking a major rebuke of a signature second-term economic policy.

President Donald Trump made it official on Friday night, signing into effect a revised version of his global tariff regime mere hours after the Supreme Court invalidated his use of emergency economic powers.

Trump made the announcement on his Truth Social platform.

The Supreme Court’s sweeping decision invalidating most of President Donald Trump’s tariffs is more than a legal defeat – it’s a warning sign for the long-term viability of Trumpism itself, according to a new analysis in The New Republic.

Trump’s devastating Supreme Court loss – backed by two of his hand-picked justices – signals that the foundations of his populist nationalist agenda are beginning to crack, wrote columnist Greg Sargent.

Republican leaders are facing a new political dilemma – thanks to the Supreme Court’s devastating blow to President Donald Trump’s tariff agenda.

The ruling means any future votes on tariffs "will no longer be symbolic" as Congress will now be forced to decide whether to restore the president’s signature policy through legislation, according to Axios.

The U.S. Supreme Court may have just handed President Donald Trump a political gift – one that’s deeply humiliating, according to The Atlantic’s David Frum.

In a ruling that struck down Trump’s sweeping tariff regime, the MAGAfied high court delivered a decisive check on presidential power, making clear that the Constitution assigns taxing authority to Congress, not the White House. His tariffs, which began in April, were projected to raise as much as $2.3 trillion over 10 years, Frum wrote Friday.

Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent hinted that the American people would never see the return of $175 billion in tariffs collected by the Trump administration after the Supreme Court struck down the president's ability to impose them.

During an event at the Economic Club of Dallas on Friday, Ray Washburne noted that the administration had collected about $175 billion in tariffs under the International Emergency Economic Powers Act (IEEPA) before the court ruled it unconstitutional.

President Donald Trump was dealt a huge blow by the Supreme Court on Friday as they eliminated his ability to impose tariffs under economic emergency powers — but he almost at once declared he will continue to charge global tariffs, using a number of alternative statutes. During his rant, he claimed under the ruling, he can't charge tariffs to foreign countries but can "destroy the country" by cutting off all trade to it instead.

Trump's bizarre diatribe, as well as his vow to keep all the same policies the Supreme Court eliminated in place by other means, provoked a stunned reaction from commenters on social media.
