Federal Express sued the U.S. government, seeking a “full refund” of the money the shipping giant paid for tariffs unilaterally imposed by Donald Trump, which the Supreme Court last week ruled were illegal.
FedEx’s suit appears to be the first one filed by a major U.S. company after the Supreme Court decision seeking a refund of the tariffs it has paid.
Other companies filed lawsuits seeking refunds before the high court ruled that the tariffs Trump imposed under the International Emergency Economic Powers Act are illegal.
Turns out running a country like a company with no clue how to run a company is a bad idea.
I should sue for a refund too. It’s my money and I want it now.

I needed a replacement for an item hat failed under warranty. The original part was made in Canada, and a replacement was mailed to me free of charge. Except, I got a note from FedEx that i had to pay tarriffs… My tariff was $5, but FedEx was charging a $25 tariff handling fee on top of the $5. And if I didn’t prepay, they would instead charge $40 total to collect my $5 tarriff.
FUCK FedeEx for having the audacity to request a refund from the federal government on top of their blind extortion. These fuckers need to burn.
They’ll charge you another $25 fee to process your $5 refund if you want it.
Edit: this was a joke … i just realized someone that paid a very big tariff might actually think they were offering a refund for $25 and would want it.
DID Fed Ex pay those tariffs? It seems to me that those costs were passed on to the consumers.
They’re suing on behalf of their customers. I’m sure they will also be spending the settlement on behalf of their customers as well.
This was entirely predictable, also don’t expect cost to go down now either.
This is gonna be a clusterfuck.
“Clusterfuck” is a great way to describe this administration 🙄
Who do I sue to get back the illegal tarrifs I paid on the hot tub I imported?
Corpos passed the cost of those tariffs on to consumers in the form of higher prices. They already GOT paid. But why screw consumers once when you can do it twice?
Oh no… It’s not just once… They passed the rate of the tarrifs on to us, now they’ll recoup the cost that WE paid, AND they’ll continue to charge us at those increased rates even if the tarrifs are lifted.
Yeah Trump now you have to pay everyone back with all the country’s money you laundered away from US and venezuela, and the corrupt deals you made with, among others, saudi arabia. Maybe you can still make some coin on the international trade you wanna set up with ruzzia. Hope he also has to pay back everyone he scammed with his bitcoins.
Its only been a year and we’re at billions in illegal taxes to be returned.
HaHa! Suck it FedEx!
They’ll get their tariff money back - if they remember to bribe Donny. Otherwise, he’ll probably try to get federal agencies to harass them.

Government and corporations at war with each other? Go on, tell me more.

It only works when they aren’t bribing each other off.
