The president says those tariffs will start next month and go up to 25% if the U.S.
doesn't have complete control by June.
It's unclear how this will play out or what authority Trump could use.
The Supreme Court could decide to overturn his existing tariffs any day now.
The Justice Department is investigating whether Minnesota Governor Tim Walz and Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Fry have impeded federal immigration enforcement through public statements they've made.
