Mike Pence Just Reminded the MAGA Movement What a Dirty Traitor He Really Is
Former Vice President Mike Pence just reminded the MAGA movement what a duplicitous traitor he is — and always has been.
On Friday afternoon, Justices John Roberts, Amy Coney Barrett, and Neil Gorsuch joined the court’s three liberal members to strike down President Trump’s signature tariff policy, a central tenet of his 2024 campaign.
Pence, who is widely despised across the conservative grassroots, took to the X platform to celebrate the decision:
Today’s 6-3 ruling by the Supreme Court is a Victory for the American People and a Win for the Separation of Powers enshrined in the Constitution of the United States.
In Learning Resources, Inc. v. Trump, our Supreme Court has reaffirmed that the Constitution grants Congress – not the President – the power to tax.
American families and American businesses pay American tariffs – not foreign countries. With this decision, American families and businesses can breathe a sigh of relief.
I’m proud of the work our organization @AmericanFreedom has done on this case through our robust amicus brief program to advance economic freedom and defend the Constitution.
With this historic decision, America can now return to the pursuit of Free Trade with Free Nations under the Constitution of the United States!🇺🇸

He later quoted Gorsuch’s opinion, in which the justice said his decision was motivated by the need to preserve the legislative process as the “bulwark of liberty.”

Trump, meanwhile, told a press conference on Friday that the justices were an “embarrassment to their families.”
“It is my opinion that the court has been swayed by foreign interest and a political movement that is far smaller than people would ever think,” he said.

The president has since insisted he will find workarounds to impose tariffs by another means.
