President Trump at breakfast with the governors.

Yeah, so we have a couple of statements.

We won't be able to take questions.

These are our first remarks.

We've just seen the decision, just heard it in the Supreme Court.

But today, the United States Supreme Court stood up for the rule of law, stood up for Americans everywhere.

Its message was simple.

Presidents are powerful, but our Constitution is more powerful still.

In America, only Congress, the Chief Justice, writing for six justices, said only Congress can impose taxes on the American people, and that's what tariffs are.

Tariffs are taxes.

I am so grateful for the leadership of the Liberty Justice Center, and in particular, the brilliant woman standing next to me, Sarah Albrecht, who masterminded this case, who took this case when so many others were afraid to stand up for the rule of law,

who was dauntless in our defense of the Constitution.

I'm also grateful to the five small business owners who stood up against these unjust, unconstitutional taxes.

By taking a stand, they have paved the way for relief to tens of thousands of American businesses and hundreds of millions of Americans across the country.

I am a registered Republican, voted for the president, supported him, but I really want to apologize. I mean, I'm looking at this awful picture of the Obamas. What an embarrassment to our country. All this man does is tell lies. He is not worthy of the presidency. He takes bribes.

To note, president left that racist post up for 12 hours.

Kyllä, niin ensimmäisenä Michael, on kiva nähdä sinut, ja olemme todella iloisia tänään, kun näemme hallituksen pysyvän presidentin, en tiedä, tunnelutanturin. Kuten sanoit, tämä on maailman suurin rakennusprojekti. Se on ollut vuosia, kun se on saatu yhdessä.

It's so critical for New York City, for New Jersey, for the state of New York, more generally in the economy. The tunnel is 106, one of the tunnels being repaired is 116 years old and hasn't had much in the way of repairs. So this is really important stuff. And so the New York and New Jersey attorney generals went into court in New York and said, hey, you know,

You've got to resume funding for this. There's literally holes in the ground. There's a thousand construction workers who don't know if they're going to have their job next week. I mean, it is just a terrifying amount of uncertainty and not over some minor thing, but the biggest project in the country. So the federal judge tonight agreed with the states and said, absolutely, the funding must resume. Are you surprised by how quick the judge responded with his order?

En ole. Mielestäni tässä on todella... tutkijat puhuvat todella huonosta haasteesta. Mitä se tarkoittaa? Se tarkoittaa sitä, että sinun täytyy toimia nyt, eikä sinun voi oikeastaan laittaa sydäntöä takaisin. Ja tämä on todella paradigmaattinen asia. En ole yllättynyt nähdä jäseni menevän niin nopeasti.
