An advisor to Donald Trump had some choice words for Illinois Governor JB Pritzker after the Democrat tried to troll the president over the Supreme Court’s tariff ruling.

Pritzker wrote a letter to Trump demanding he issue refunds to the people of Illinois now that the court has ruled the trade policies unconstitutional, attached with an invoice for $8.6billion. 

The liberal governor and heir to the Hyatt Hotels fortune even threatened ‘further action’ if Trump didn’t pay up. 

Alex Bruesewitz, one of the president’s longest-serving advisors, hit back at Pritzker after reporter Natasha Korecki posted details of the invoice on social media.

‘Hey @natashakorecki, could you or any reporter please ask fat-a** @JBPritzker about his cousin who just had to resign from Hyatt after his close ties with Epstein were exposed?’

The governor’s cousin Thomas Pritzker announced earlier this week that he is stepping down from the corporation’s board of directors over his admitted association with Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell.

The Daily Mail has reached out to the White House for comment. 

In the letter to Trump, Pritzker wrote: ‘Your tariff taxes wreaked havoc on farmers, enraged our allies, and sent grocery prices through the roof. This morning, your hand-picked Supreme Court Justices notified you that they are also unconstitutional.’

He then demanded Trump refund the people of Illinois $1,700 per family, with more than five million households in the state, totaled out to $8,679,261,600.

‘This letter and the attached invoice stand as an official notice that compensation is owed to the people of Illinois, and if you do not comply, we will pursue further action,’ he added.

The invoice, captioned by Pritzker with the words ‘cut the check,’ was even marked: ‘Past Due – Delinquent.’

Trump claimed earlier Friday that he found a little-known trade law to re-implement his sweeping tariffs, set to take effect in just days, after he launched a bitter attack against the Supreme Court for ruling his trade policies unconstitutional. 

‘It is my Great Honor to have just signed, from the Oval Office, a Global 10% Tariff on all Countries, which will be effective almost immediately. Thank you for your attention to this matter!’ Trump wrote on Truth Social on Friday evening. 

Trump previously threatened to impose a 10 percent tariff under Section 122 of the Trade Act of 1974, which grants the president the power to impose temporary tariffs. 

The trade law was implemented to address short-term emergencies and does not enact long-term trade policies. 

The tariffs can remain in effect for only 150 days without congressional approval. Trump’s decision marks the first time a president has invoked Section 122.

The White House shared that the temporary import duty will take effect on February 24 at 12.01am EST. 

The tariff does not apply to a wide range of goods, including energy products, natural resources, fertilizers, pharmaceuticals, some electronics, some vehicles, certain aerospace products, informational materials, and accompanied baggage. 

Food products, including beef and tomatoes, will be exempt to minimize impacts on the average consumer.

The global tariff also excludes products from Canada and Mexico due to the United States-Mexico-Canada Agreement.

Canada and Mexico have the lowest effective tariff rate globally. The countries will still be taxed on steel, aluminum and non-USMCA compliant goods. 

Certain textiles and apparel are also exempt under the Dominican Republic-Central America Free Trade Agreement. 

‘The Supreme Court’s disappointing decision today will not deter the President’s effort to reshape the long-distorted global trading system that has undermined the economic and national security of our country, and contributed to fundamental international payment problems,’ the White House said on the tariffs.

The president also launched a scathing accusation – that the justices who struck down his signature tariffs are being ‘swayed by foreign interests.’

In his seething condemnation, Trump said that some conservative justices are ‘not loyal’ like those appointed by Democratic presidents and accused them of going against the US Constitution. 

He lamented that the decision is nonsensical, claiming that the court admitted he can do anything he wants as president other than slap down tariffs.

‘I’m allowed to destroy the country, but I can’t charge them a little fee,’ Trump complained. ‘I can do anything I want to do to them, but I can’t charge any money.’

Three conservative justices joined all three liberals on the panel to rule against Trump on Friday, handing down a 6-3 decision that rebuked one of the president’s biggest economic proposals of his second term.

Despite the Court’s rightward lean, two justices that Trump appointed – Neil Gorsuch and Amy Coney Barrett – joined Chief Justice John Roberts to rule against him. 

It marked a rare moment of consensus among conservative justices to go against the president. 

Meanwhile, Justice Brett Kavanaugh, the third Trump Supreme Court appointee, penned the dissent. He was joined by fellow conservative Justices Samuel Alito and Clarence Thomas.

‘The Supreme Court’s ruling on tariffs is deeply disappointing and I’m ashamed of certain members of the Court. Absolutely ashamed for not having the courage to do what’s right for our country,’ the president said in the press briefing room. 

‘It’s my opinion that the court has been swayed by foreign interests and a political movement that is far smaller than people would ever think,’ he added. 

Trump also spun the legal defeat into a win, saying that now he has a greater ability to regulate trade.

‘While I am sure that they did not mean to do so, the Supreme Court’s decision today made a President’s ability to both regulate trade and impose tariffs more powerful and more crystal clear rather than less,’ he said. ‘I don’t think they meant that.’
