On Wednesday, November 5, 2025, the U.S. Supreme Court heard one of the most anticipated oral arguments in recent times. In Learning Resources v. Trump and Trump v. V.O.S. Selections, Inc., the Court is examining the legality of President Trump’s use of emergency powers to impose sweeping tariffs. The case lies at the intersection of two powerful, and potentially conflicting, trends in the Court’s recent jurisprudence: on the one hand, efforts to constrain delegations of power to the executive; on the other, a recurring embrace of expansive presidential authority. Each path carries significant risks for the broader balance of powers in the U.S. constitutional system.
