Trump announces new 10 percent global tariff

President Donald Trump announced on Friday that he was imposing an extra global tariff of 10 percent on U.S. trade partners.

Speaking to reporters after the Supreme Court ruled his sweeping global tariffs illegal, Trump said he would impose tariffs using alternative authorities.

"The Supreme Court's decision today made a president's ability to both regulate trade and impose tariffs more powerful and more crystal clear, rather than less," he said.
