The United States has collected more than $ 30 billion Price income In August, the highest monthly total so far for 2025 – and with more data to declare.
The total tariff income of 2025 reached more than $ 183 billion, according to the latest data “data on customs and excise taxes” published Thursday by the Treasury Department. Price income from Friday to Sunday has not yet been reported.
Trump says that we would be “destroyed” without pricing income
Pricing income regularly increased from $ 17.4 billion in April to 23.9 billion dollars in May, before climbing $ 28 billion in June and reaching $ 29 billion in July.
At the current rate, the United States could perceive as much pricing income in just four months to five months as during the previous year.
Compared to this period in 2025, pricing income was $ 86.5 billion for the financial year.

The sharp increase in income coincides with a decision of the Federal Court of Appeal that the President Donald Trump has surpassed his authority using emergency powers to impose radical world rates.
In its decision on Friday, the court said that the power to set such prices is based on the congress or in existing commercial policy executives. The decision does not affect the prices imposed by other judicial authorities, such as Trump’s levies from imports of steel and aluminum.

Attorney General Bondi announced that the Ministry of Justice will appeal the decision to the Supreme Court. Meanwhile, the court has authorized the prices to remain in place until October 14.
The reverse has been removing the trade policy of Trump for a long time, for a long time a centerpiece of its economic program, which is based strongly on the prices to increase income and exert pressure on foreign trade partners.
