The Supreme Court of the United States on Friday said that President Donald Trump exceeded his legal authority by invoking emergency economic powers to levy tariffs — a rare reprimand that delivers a significant setback to his economic program.

Doctors caution that a seemingly 'normal' cholesterol report can be misleading.
