The U.S. Supreme Court is gearing up for two significant cases that could profoundly impact President Donald Trump's economic policies and define the scope of his executive power. Central to these cases are Trump's sweeping global tariffs and his controversial move to remove Federal Reserve Governor Lisa Cook.

The court is tasked with determining whether Trump's actions, like imposing tariffs under the International Emergency Economic Powers Act and his attempt to oust Cook, overstep legal boundaries. These are unprecedented assertions of executive authority that may redefine the balance of power between the government branches.

The implications of the court's decisions on these cases are vast, potentially affecting key economic policies and the independence of central monetary authorities. Legal experts, policymakers, and economists are closely watching for potential shifts in the legal landscape that could alter the nation's economic course.
