单集文稿 ...

  • Imagine, if you will, a show from NPR that's not like NPR.

  • A show that focuses not on the important, but the stupid.

  • Which features stories about people smuggling animals in their pants,

  • incompetent criminals, and ridiculous science studies.

  • And call it Wait, Wait, Don't Tell Me because the good names were taken.

  • Listen to NPR's Wait, Wait, Don't Tell Me.

  • Yes, that is what it is called.

  • Wherever you get your podcasts.

  • Live from NPR News in Washington, I'm Corva Coleman.

  • A dozen states are suing to try to block President Trump's global tariffs,

  • alleging these are illegal.

  • From member station KJZZ, Cameron Sanchez reports,

  • a coalition of Democratic attorneys general has filed a lawsuit.

  • The 12 attorneys general argue that Congress, not the president, holds the power to impose tariffs.

  • The suit notes that in emergencies, the president has the power to create tariffs,

  • but says that Trump is overstepping his bounds and illegally declaring tariffs at his whim.

  • The lawsuit is co-led by Arizona Attorney General Chris Mays.

  • We are facing an unprecedented and lawless presidency,

  • one that has made a habit over the last three months of disregarding the separation of powers.

  • and ignoring the two other co-equal branches of government.
