Can Trump revive his blocked Tariffs?

from ZipLaw Briefing

Trump's tariff machine got knocked down by the Supreme Court and this week he tried to rebuild the whole thing in five days. We break down the legal mechanics behind Section 301, why stretching it across 60 countries at once is legally untested, and how a single trade shift creates billable work across regulatory, employment, disputes, supply chain and M&A teams all at once. If you want a story that touches every practice group, this is it.Then we head out to the Strait of Hormuz (again) for a $48 million insurance fight over a supertanker seized by Iran's Revolutionary Guard. The twist? The insurers aren't disputing the seizure. They're refusing to pay because the owners didn't show up to a court hearing. It's a brilliant case study in war risk insurance, the sue and labour duty, constructive total loss and how US sanctions can freeze a payout even when cover applies.📰 News roundup this week is a parade of enormous numbers:🚀 Anthropic files for an IPO that could value it at around $1 trillion, while SpaceX floats at $1.8 trillion and Alphabet plans $85 billion in fresh shares🔍 The CMA orders Google to let publishers opt out of AI-generated search summaries and model training, a real shift for media and copyright law📉 Broadcom drops 14% after beating consensus but missing the dream, a neat lesson in market expectations⚽ The FCA warns Premier League clubs over unauthorised crypto sponsors, flagging legal liability, money laundering risk and reputational damage💻 Nvidia unveils a processor to run AI models on your laptop, signalling a push beyond data centres into the consumer market🇨🇳 DeepSeek nears a $7.4 billion fundraise backed by Tencent, proof the AI money race isn't purely AmericanThe ZipLaw Briefing is the weekly podcast for aspiring solicitors who want to stand out in vacation scheme and training contract interviews.
