Trump to talk tariffs with leaders of Canada and Mexico: 'They owe us a lot of money'

WASHINGTON — President Donald Trump said he will talk to leaders from Canada and Mexico on Monday, a day before the 25% tariffs he imposed on the country's top two trading partners go into effect. Within hours of Trump’s Saturday order, Canada’s Prime Minister Justin Trudeau hit back with tit-for-tat retaliatory 25% tariffs on American goods. Mexico’s President Claudia Sheinbaum said she was considering "tariff and non-tariff measures in defense of Mexico's interests." "I'm speaking with Prime Minister Trudeau tomorrow morning and I'm also speaking with Mexico tomorrow morning," Trump said Sunday, as he landed at Joint Base Andrews in Maryland, after flying back from his Florida home.

Struggling with your nomination': 4 takeaways from RFK Jr., Gabbard, Patel hearings

Three of President Donald Trump’s nominees for top jobs in his administration faced tough questioning from Democrats during Senate confirmation hearings Thursday − and two of them were also grilled by some Republicans, highlighting concerns in Trump’s own party about some of his unorthodox picks. Sen. Bill Cassidy, R-La, pressed Trump’s pick for health secretary, Robert F. Kennedy Jr., on his anti-vaccine views, particularly debunked claims that vaccines cause autism, and said he was “struggling” to support him. Republican senators also repeatedly pushed Tulsi Gabbard, Trump’s nominee for director of national intelligence, on whether Edward Snowden – the former National Security Agency employee who leaked classified intelligence information – is a traitor, a label she avoided using to the frustration of some lawmakers.
