Hawk’s Friday Brief: Supreme Court nixes Trump tariffs; farm groups eye relief; Delroy Lindo hails ‘Sinners’; HBCU Legacy Bowl spotlights talent

The U.S. Supreme Court on Friday struck down President Donald Trump’s far‑reaching global tariff regime in a 6–3 ruling, a major blow to a signature plank of his economic agenda. The case centered on tariffs imposed unilaterally under an emergency powers law, including sweeping “reciprocal” duties on nearly every other country. While Trump had cast the challenge as one of the most consequential in U.S. history, legal opposition spanned the political spectrum, including libertarian and pro‑business groups. Agriculture groups said they’re hopeful the decision will ease costs on farm inputs, though administration officials signaled they aim to preserve much of the framework under other authorities [1].

On the culture desk: Celebrated actor Delroy Lindo called the Oscar‑nominated “Sinners” “a work for the ages” in a wide‑ranging conversation on CNN’s Amanpour, underscoring the film’s resonance amid a freighted political and social moment [2]. And Norwegian director Joachim Trier described his new film, “Sentimental Value,” as a story about “all the stuff we don’t know how to talk about,” leaning into the quiet tensions that define modern relationships [3].
