In the land of America so free,
A court ruling came, a surprise to see,
Blocked President Trump's tariffs so grand,
A major blow to his economic plan.
The Court of International Trade made its call,
Saying Congress has the power to stand tall,
Regulating commerce with nations so fine,
Not the president, no matter the sign.
The White House cried foul, with a worried face,
But the court stood firm, in a steady pace,
Two cases were heard, with small businesses too,
Challenging the tariffs, with a "we can't do" crew.
The Liberty Justice Center led the pack,
Along with state governments, with a united attack,
The International Emergency Economic Powers Act,
Was deemed not enough, to make the tariffs fact.
A three-judge panel ruled with a steady hand,
The tariffs were blocked, in a foreign land,
China, Mexico, and Canada, were also in the mix,
Their tariffs were blocked, with a judicial fix.
The White House is not happy, with a frown so deep,
But the court's decision, will make the tariffs sleep,
For now, the tariffs will not be paid,
But the White House will appeal, with a plan to sway.
The case may go to the Supreme Court, so high,
But even then, the tariffs may not die,
The president has power, to impose some more,
With a 15% tariff, for 150 days in store.
The ruling raises questions, about trade talks so fine,
Between the US and other countries, in a diplomatic bind,
The UK and US, had a deal so sweet,
But now the tariffs, on UK goods, are in question to meet.
The UK government, is working hard to see,
That British businesses, can benefit from the deal, with glee,
But the court ruling, has thrown a spanner in the works,
Leaving the future, of the deal, in uncertain perks.
