Colorado-based shoemaker Crocs, Inc. slapped the Trump administration with a $54 million lawsuit, claiming the president overstepped his authority with emergency tariffs that have cost the company hundreds of millions over the last two consecutive quarters.

The footwear giant filed the suit Friday in the U.S. Court of International Trade in New York City, naming U.S. Customs and Border Protection, the U.S. Department of Treasury, the U.S. Department of Homeland Security, and the Office of the U.S. Trade Representative, the Denver Business Journal reported.

Trump administration officials, including Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem, Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent, and Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick, were also named in the action seeking $54 million in tariff refunds.

      They should be suing for hundreds of millions!

      Of course one of the biggest problems with this grift strategy is Trump family profits but American taxpayers are on the hook
