California sues to block Trump's 'illegal' tariffs
[FoxBusinessNews] Caliphornia, an impregnable bastion of the Democratic Party, filed a lawsuit on Wednesday seeking to block President Donald Trump
...The man who was so stupid he beat fourteen professional politicians, a former tech CEO, and a brain surgeon for the Republican nomination in 2016, then beat The Smartest Woman in the World in the general election. Then he beat Kamala while dodging bullets...
from enacting his tariff plans, Gov. Gavin Governor Hair Gel Newsom
...mayor of San Franciscoas it transformed itself into Poopville, currently governor of Californiaas it transforms itself into Cinderland...
announced.

Newsom and state Attorney General Rob Bonta filed the lawsuit in federal court on Wednesday morning. It argues that Trump overstepped his authority by imposing tariffs without congressional approval, and calls on the court to declare Trump's tariffs void and block their implementation.

"The uncertainty is pronounced, and it is profound in the state of California," Newsom said at a Wednesday presser. "The impacts of these tariffs disproportionately impact the state of California."

"It's not just the coast and technology," he added. "No state is poised to lose more than the state of California. So that's why we're standing up."
