Donald Trump's plans to throw drastic new tariffs at goods from Canada and Mexico are going to have immediate and massive impacts on American consumers, Washington Post economic analyst Catherine Rampell told CNN's Erica Hill on Tuesday — and not in a good way.

"Catherine, when we look at the impact here ... what's your take on the big picture, which industries in the U.S. could be hit the hardest?" asked Hill.

Former Republican Party Chairman Michael Steele addressed some of Donald Trump's cabinet picks and the demand to sign a loyalty agreement with him.

MSNBC's Nicolle Wallace pointed out Trump's demands that appointees of top government offices swear an oath to him — when they're supposed to swear an oath to the Constitution.

An Iowa Republican senator acknowledged he was "concerned" Tuesday about the threat of a trade war following inflammatory statements from Donald Trump, but downplayed the president-elect's comments as merely a "negotiating tool."

Trump on Monday said he plans to impose a 25% tariff on all imports from Mexico and Canada, and a 10% tariff on goods from China on his first day in office. The move is meant to stem the flow of drugs coming over the border and illegal border crossings.

From increased tensions in the Arab world to new heights in the world of artificial intelligence, when President-elect Donald Trump reemerges in the White House in January, he will be greeted by a changed world and a whole new set of challenges, according to a Pulitzer Prize-winning columnist.

And how the incoming president responds to those challenges – many of which were not issues in the 2024 campaign and Trump didn’t face in his last term – will deeply impact his new administration, New York Times foreign affairs opinion columnist Thomas Friedman wrote Tuesday.

Satirical newspaper The Onion made waves when it moved to buy the assets of Infowars, the far-right conspiracy theory webcast of Alex Jones, from a bankruptcy auction. But there was a sudden, unexpected wrinkle in the sale, reported 404 Media on Tuesday: lawyers for tech billionaire Elon Musk objected to a specific piece of the sale.

The complaint, wrote Jason Koebler, is that the sale includes Infowars' accounts on Musk's X social media platform, previously known as Twitter — and Musk's legal team wants it to be clear they actually own those accounts, not The Onion or Infowars, and all people and organizations on the platform have a "license" to use it, not ownership of anything on it.

Kash Patel is vying with one of Donald Trump's other insiders for the CIA deputy director post.

Patel became a Trump ally when he coordinated with former Rep. Devin Nunes (R-CA) to fight back against special counsel Robert Mueller, who investigated Russian efforts to meddle in the 2016 election. Patel pressed to have all of the information around the Russia probe declassified, thinking it would expose wrongdoing in the intelligence community, CNN reported in 2020.

Pro-MAGA TV host Gina Loudon accused the movie "Wicked" of "racism" against white people after she mistakenly claimed actress Ariana Grande was Hispanic.

"Wicked, the movie broke box office records," Loudon announced Tuesday on her Real America's Voice program. "I saw it, but I was very excited at the idea of seeing the interpretation of this. But I should have known it's Holly-weird."

A Biden administration plan to extend a $6 billion loan for an electric vehicle manufacturer to build an E.V. factory in Georgia sent MAGA world into a tailspin Tuesday.

The plan announced Monday is reportedly part of a push to lock in Democratic climate policies before President-elect Donald Trump returns to the White House. But not everybody was on board, with the move stoking speculation that the loan was a veiled political attack at one of Trump's main supporters – Tesla CEO Elon Musk.

Donald Trump has already begun to ramp up threats of a trade war, with a vow to enact sharp new tariffs across the board on imports from Mexico, Canada, and China to strong-arm them into stopping the flow of drugs and migrants. But his plans may quickly fall apart, wrote Eduardo Porter for The Washington Post, because there are economic truths that Trump can't avoid through bullying.

Economists have sounded the alarm that Trump's proposed tariff regime will vastly increase the cost of goods for most Americans in a variety of categories.

The partisan divide in the House of Representatives is expected to worsen next year, with a former lawmaker calling it a "nightmarish" scenario.

When Republicans took control of the House two years ago, they held control with a margin of 222–213. Now, Republicans hold power with just 219 seats, with a few races still too close to call or battling over recounts.

Donald Trump and his right-hand man, tech billionaire Elon Musk, want to abolish federal tax subsidies for electric vehicles. But California Gov. Gavin Newsom is issuing a threat, reported The Daily Beast: if those tax credits go away, California will pass its own— and add a requirement that disqualifies Musk's company.

Musk, who headed up a key super PAC that ran voter outreach for Trump in the 2024 election, has been tapped to head up an unofficial task force alongside far-right businessman Vivek Ramaswamy, known as the Department of Government Efficiency, or DOGE, after an internet meme. The task force's job is to recommend ways to slash government spending and inefficiency and it has pledged to balance the budget, which experts have reservations about.

Donald Trump is expected to use special counsel Jack Smith’s abandonment of his criminal cases against him to try to kill charges he’s also facing in Georgia, according to a report.
