Uh-oh

 


A conservative advocacy organization funded in part by billionaire Republican mega-donor Charles Koch is representing a Florida company that is suing President Donald Trump for imposing tariffs on all imports from China, describing Trump's move as an unlawful power grab.

"A tariff is a tax on Americans’ commerce with other countries," the New Civil Liberties Alliance wrote in its legal complaint, filed on behalf of Simplified, a Florida-based business that sells organizational tools such as paper-made planners. "The Constitution assigns Congress exclusive power to impose tariffs and regulate foreign commerce."

The New Civil Liberties Alliance, which is affiliated with prominent right-wing legal activist Leonard Leo's network, describes its mission as combatting "unlawful administrative power."

Leo didn't think the leopards would eat HIS face.
