In a 6-3 ruling, the Supreme Court held that the International Emergency Economic Powers Act does not authorize presidential tariffs, invalidating Trump's broad levies on imports from many countries that had generated $130 billion. Trump brushed it off in a White House briefing, signing an executive order for a new 10% global tariff under the Trade Act of 1974—later raised to 15%—while calling critics like Hakeem Jeffries low IQ and praising dissenting justices. He urged Republicans to stick together amid private GOP relief over the decision and Democratic cheers for checking executive power, as refund lawsuits pile up ahead of midterms.

Wichtigste Erkenntnis

Hours after a Supreme Court smackdown on his global tariffs, President Trump turned to Truth Social to blast fellow Republicans as disloyal and demand they unite to win.

The drills come amid rising U.S.-Iran friction over Tehran's nuclear program, with President Trump issuing a short deadline for a deal and deploying carriers, drones, and bombers to the region. A Russian command plane's arrival in Tehran fueled online worries of escalation, though experts call it posturing tied to deepening Moscow-Tehran ties rather than war preparations.

The high-performance EVM-compatible layer-1 chain now holds $120 million in total value locked, with smart money investing $1.2 million in its MON token. Yet NFT projects like Monuki saw floor prices drop from 118 MON to 80 MON, leaving minters underwater after high fees. The MON airdrop to 76,000 wallets led to quick sales, tanking the token from $0.10 to $0.027, while some question favoritism toward the mascot project Chog. Monad's tech shines at 10,000 TPS with sub-second finality, but builders call for better balance between growth and ecosystem support.

Wichtigste Erkenntnis

Just 11 days after its November 24 launch, Monad added 529,000 new wallets in a week, processing 14.5 million transactions. But NFT creators feel the pinch with slow mints and falling prices.
