Says Sauer is making Article II argument. Taxes are not things thought of Article II powers, they are quintessential Article I powers.
Sauer: The fact that tariffs raise revenues are only incidental. They'd be best if they never raise revenues.
😜
Alito weighs in, raises Dames & Moore, but he's pointing out Sauer is adopting a narrow decision broadly.

Never mind that Trump brags about all the money that is raised by the tariffs and in fact that was the only reason he ever stated for raising them that I heard.

Is this Robert’s throwing him a lifeline? “Keep it narrow you idiot and we‘ll support our boy in the WH!”

Kagan reminds again that tariffs are taxes. "I don't see how a quota is equivalent to revenue raising. ... I don't understand this argument."
"Didn't we agree in Biden case an emergency can't make clear what is ambiguous?"
[Again, this is WILDLY inconsistent with Trump's loud screems abt revenue]
