Live from NPR News, I'm Dale Willman. President Trump is pressing ahead with tariffs despite a substantial legal setback from the Supreme Court. He plans to raise a new tariff on global imports to 15 percent. MPR's Kristen Wright reports.
In a post on Truth Social, Trump said his decision to impose a new 15 percent tariff on goods from around the world is based on, quote, a thorough, detailed and complete review of the ridiculous, poorly written and extraordinarily anti-American decision on tariffs. the Supreme Court struck down the president's use of the International Emergency Economic Powers Act to impose certain tariffs. Friday's ruling is a major blow to Trump's economic policy agenda. Initially, the president signed a proclamation hours after the ruling, imposing a new 10% tariff on global imports to revive his tariffs. He cited the Trade Act of 1974 as authorization, but they can only be in place for 150 days unless Congress acts.

What recent legal challenges is President Trump facing regarding tariffs?
BBC broadcaster David Dimbleby has spent five decades covering everything from Princess Diana's funeral in 1997... to Queen Elizabeth's in 2022. That access has brought insight, he says, into what he calls a secretive, self-protective institution resistant to reform.
We live in a parliamentary democracy. We have a monarchy. And in my view, the monarchy needs to adapt.
It's possible legislation to remove Andrew from the line of royal succession could also end up including new requirements for financial transparency on the part of working royals. For NPR News, I'm Vicki Barker in London.
A Ukrainian cruise missile attack has hit a major missile factory some 870 miles inside Russia. Russian officials say 11 people were injured in the attack, which damaged the state-owned facility. The factory produces Iskander ballistic missiles, which are often used in attacks against Ukraine. It also manufactures nuclear-capable intercontinental ballistic missiles. Airports in the region were closed after the attack. This is NPR News. Crews have recovered the bodies of nine backcountry skiers who were killed in an avalanche on Tuesday in California. While all but one of the bodies were discovered quickly, search teams were unable to actually recover them until now because the high risk of another avalanche was too high.
