Trump says he will remember companies that do not seek IEEPA tariff refunds
President Trump said Tuesday on CNBC that companies choosing not to apply for refunds on tariffs struck down by the Supreme Court are acting 'brilliantly' and that he will 'remember' them. The Supreme Court ruled 6-3 on February 20 that Trump's use of the International Emergency Economic Powers Act to impose tariffs was unconstitutional. Monday marked the first day businesses could apply for refunds through Customs and Border Protection, with the system potentially processing up to $175 billion.

The split, in one line
Original outlets focused on company loyalty and Supreme Court criticism, but NY Post and Breitbart shift to Trump's UK tariff threat over the digital services tax, framing it as a transatlantic tech trade clash rather than a domestic political story.
