In a bizarre twist, a group of small businesses has sued the Trump administration, claiming that the president's tariff powers are more magical than magical. The lawsuit, brought by the Liberty Justice Center, argues that Donald Trump's ability to conjure tariffs out of thin air is not only unconstitutional but also violates the ancient art of accounting. Apparently, the president's justification for these tariffs involved waving a wand and chanting "trade deficit" three times, which, according to the lawsuit, does not constitute a valid national emergency.

The businesses involved include a wine importer who's now forced to give away their bottles for free due to the unpredictable nature of the tariffs, a cycling apparel company that's considering outsourcing production to the moon to avoid duties, and an educational kit maker who's contemplating using only materials found in the backyard. They're all claiming the tariffs have made it impossible to survive without turning their companies into pirate-themed restaurants.
