Every governor should be demanding the same for their states.

The federal government stole that money from Americans and should be liable for paying it back. They can't brag that they've made billions in tariff money when it was stolen from Americans. Because of their actions the federal government will likely lose billions if they were forced to pay it back which would be rightfully owed.

They wont pay it back though because so one is there to enforce it.

You're not wrong.

Judging by Gavin Newsom's popularity, all Democratic partisans seem to be concerned about is dank memes.

And "God Bless America".

Please no, we don't need more Trumps.

Oh it's fine he has people to read for him. They have to dumb it down a little though.

You can't sue the federal government unless they give you explicit permission to. They have sovereign immunity except when they intentionally waive that immunity, such as with the Federal Tort Claims Act. You can challenge the constitutionality of a law or policy, fight to have it overturned, but you cannot seek repayment for damages caused by that law or policy without meeting the conditions under which the government has said you can.

The FTCA is the primary mechanism to sue the fed and the allowances of it are pretty narrow. Tariffs, even illegal ones, would likely fall under the discretionary function exception, which would mean that you couldn't sue. But even if it didn't fall under that exception, in order to sue, you must first submit an FTCA claim for repayment of damages to the goverment and wait for their response. Claims must be made within 2 years of the damages and they have 6 months to respond. Only once actually denied can you actually sue, and it must be within 6 months of their response. And then you have to materially prove damages directly caused by the federal government, specifically.

Am I tripping, I can't see that oxford comma you're talking about

that money (if it's paid out at all) will go to businesses who already passed all the cost of tariffs onto consumers, and taxpayers would cover this if it's paid back so businesses are fleecing americans twice for free

Yes because some Dems are bad therefore all are equally bad, .ml and having the minds of children go hand in hand. Having this many stupid people in the country is so depressing.

Yeah, let's throw shit at a potential ally because they are cousin to a criminal!
