Federal Court Challenges Trump Tariffs; Former Inuit CEO Arrested on Assault Charges
A U.S. Court of International Trade in New York heard oral arguments Friday challenging President Trump's global tariffs, following the Supreme Court's earlier rejection of broader tariff measures. Separately, former Manitoba Inuit Association CEO Nastania Mullin was arrested in Winnipeg on a Canada-wide warrant related to multiple sex assault investigations in Nunavut. Mullin is being held pending transport to Iqaluit; no charges have been proven and specific charge counts have not been disclosed.
Progressive outlets are likely to frame the federal court challenge as a necessary check on executive overreach, highlighting concerns about the economic harm of broad tariffs on consumers and international trade relationships.
