ELDER: Biden breaks promise and pardons son — Yeah, but Trump!Suddenly defensive Alabama looks to keep rolling against South Dakota State
TORONTO (AP) — Canada is already examining possible retaliatory tariffs on certain items from the United States should President-elect Donald Trump follow through on his threat to impose sweeping tariffs on Canadian products, a senior official said Wednesday. Trump has threatened to impose tariffs on products from Canada and Mexico if the countries don’t stop what he called the flow of drugs and migrants across southern and northern borders. He said he would impose a 25% tax on all products entering the U.S. from Canada and Mexico as one of his first executive orders. A Canadian government official said Canada is preparing for every eventuality and has started thinking about what items to target with tariffs in retaliation. The official stressed no decision has been made. The person spoke on condition of anonymity as they were not authorized to speak publicly. When Trump imposed higher tariffs during his first term in office, other countries responded with retaliatory tariffs of their own. Canada, for instance, announced billions of new duties in 2018 against the U.S. in a tit-for-tat response to new taxes on Canadian steel and aluminum. RELATED COVERAGE Border Patrol trains more chaplains as the job and polarizing immigration debate rattle agents Trump fills out his economic team with two veterans of his first administration Trump’s threat to impose tariffs could raise prices for consumers, colliding with promise for relief Many of the U.S. products were chosen for their political rather than economic impact. For example, Canada imports $3 million worth of yogurt from the U.S. annually and most comes from one plant in Wisconsin, home state of then-House Speaker Paul Ryan. That product was hit with a 10% duty. Another product on the list was whiskey, which comes from Tennessee and Kentucky, the latter of which is the home state of then-Republican Senate leader Mitch McConnell. Trump made the threat Monday while railing against an influx of illegal migrants, even though the numbers at Canadian border pale in comparison to the southern border. The U.S. Border Patrol made 56,530 arrests at the Mexican border in October alone — and 23,721 arrests at the Canadian one between October 2023 and September 2024. Canadian officials say lumping Canada in with Mexico is unfair but say they are happy to work with the Trump administration to lower the numbers from Canada. The Canadians are also worried about a influx north of migrants if Trump follows through with his plan for mass deportations. Trump also railed about fentanyl from Mexico and Canada, even though seizures from the Canadian border pale in comparison to the Mexican border. U.S. customs agents seized 43 pounds of fentanyl at the Canadian border last fiscal year, compared with 21,100 pounds at the Mexican border. Canadian officials argue their country is not the problem and that tariffs will have severe implications for both countries. Canada is the top export destination for 36 U.S. states. Nearly $3.6 billion Canadian (US$2.7 billion) worth of goods and services cross the border each day. About 60% of U.S. crude oil imports are from Canada, and 85% of U.S. electricity imports are from Canada. Canada is also the largest foreign supplier of steel, aluminum and uranium to the U.S. and has 34 critical minerals and metals that the Pentagon is eager for and investing in for national security. “Canada is essential to the United States’ domestic energy supply,” Deputy Prime Minister Chrystia Freeland said. Trump has pledged to cut American energy bills in half within 18 months, something that could be made harder if a 25% premium is added to Canadian oil imports. In 2023, Canadian oil accounted for almost two-thirds of total U.S. oil imports and about one-fifth of the U.S. oil supply. Prime Minister Justin Trudeau is holding a emergency virtual meeting on Wednesday with the leaders of Canada’s provinces, who want Trudeau to negotiate a bilateral trade deal with the United States that excludes Mexico. Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum said Wednesday that her administration is already working up a list of possible retaliatory tariffs “if the situation comes to that.”
Romad Dean scores 16 to lead Fordham over Maine 87-72Robert F. Kennedy Jr. is a celebrity magnate who has hobnobbed with everyone from Bill Clinton to Hollywood stars Larry David and Tom Hanks over the years. But he also had strong opinions about them that he confessed in his secret sex diaries, viewed by The Post. Tom Hanks In February 2000, Kennedy writes about reluctantly going to an event with the “Forrest Gump” star. “I thought the guy was a chronic complainer when he seemed to have the best luck on Earth,” he writes. Paula Zahn A month earlier, Kennedy disparaged newscaster Paula Zahn, who interviewed him in January of that year. “TV with Paula Zahn who has always been sweet to me, but turns out to be a right wing zealot or an innocent who has swallowed all the tripe that the GOP propaganda machine produces daily,” he writes on January 10. Republican president-elect Donald Trump nominated Kennedy , a former environmental lawyer, to be the next federal health secretary earlier this month. The Post has reached out to Kennedy’s representative for comment. Rob Reiner, Bruce Willis and Michelle Pfeiffer On a 1999 trip to Los Angeles, Kennedy had lunch with Rob Reiner and met actors Michelle Pfeiffer and Bruce Willis on the set of the film “The Story of Us” at Culver Studios. “I was struck by how slim and strong Willis was — almost slight,” he writes on Feb. 24. “He looks buff and tough in the movies.” Reiner told him that he never discusses politics with Willis “who is a libertarian of sorts and was Republican,” Kennedy writes. Larry David and friends During his LA visit, Kennedy had a “great dinner” at Larry and then-wife Laurie David’s house, along with Julia Louis-Dreyfus and Billy Crystal. “I talked Daniel Stern — from ‘Home Alone’ — into being my tent mate next week [at an environmental event] in Baja.” He finished up the trip by writing, “I stayed out of trouble which always dogs me in LA.” Bill Clinton Although he admits to having once been a fan of Bill Clinton, RFK Jr. was “disgusted” by the former president’s decision to pardon financier Marc Rich in 2001. Rich fled to Switzerland after he was indicted on federal wire fraud and racketeering charges. “He has sold out all who believed in him for trinkets and whatever else he got for those pardons,” writes Kennedy of “highly flawed” Clinton on Jan. 29. “I think of all the good deeds he didn’t do — like Vieques.” Kennedy chronicles his attempts to speak to high-ranking members of the Clinton administration over the continued bombing of Vieques, a nature preserve off the coast of Puerto Rico. “I got a returned phone call from Donald Rumsfeld,” he writes on Jan. 16, 2001, referring to the former secretary of defense. “Hillary [Clinton] told me to call him. He was very jolly and told me a lot about his mother and how much he loves her.” Alec Baldwin Two days later, Kennedy writes that actor Alec Baldwin called “to talk about his divorce from Kim Basinger. He is very worried about their child.” Baldwin once notoriously referred to his daughter, Ireland, as “ a rude, thoughtless little pig ” in a leaked phone message when she was 11 years old. Benicio del Toro In July 2001, Kennedy, along with civil rights activist Al Sharpton and others, was sentenced to 30 days in prison in Puerto Rico for his role in a Vieques protest. During his time in prison, he continued to keep a diary on yellow legal pads, which The Post has seen. On July 12, he wrote about how he was actually enjoying his time behind bars. “I really needed a break and this place is perfect,” he writes, adding that he was in the midst of reading Alan Schom’s 1997 biography of Napoleon Bonaparte, calling it “one of the most pessimistic books I’ve ever read. “Schom damns him with his own words, and he is worse than Hitler,” Kennedy writes. “Hitler at least had a purpose outside himself. Napoleon was too involved in himself.” A week later, Kennedy received a visit from Puerto Rican actor Benicio del Toro, who had recently starred in “Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas,” an adaptation of journalist Hunter S. Thompson’s book. Kennedy writes that they spoke about Thompson, actor Leonardo DiCaprio, Vieques and “Dana the conman” — an apparent reference to Hollywood money manager Dana Giacchetto who was arrested in 2000 for defrauding clients of nearly $10 million. (Giacchetto, who died in 2016, was good friends with DiCaprio.) “Benicio del Toro also came ... to visit me,” he writes. “He came with his father, who is a well known criminal lawyer and friend of [Judge Hector] Lafitte’s.” Lafitte had sentenced Kennedy and other protestors, including Dennis Rivera, the head of the powerful 1199/SEIU Health and Human Services Union, to their prison terms. Kennedy family Kennedy’s own family does not escape his barbs. During a trip to Chicago in March 2001, where he visited his younger brother Christopher, Kennedy is critical of Edwin Schlossberg, who is married to his cousin Caroline Kennedy. “He considers himself a financial genius,” Kennedy writes of Schlossberg, an artist, who he accuses of rewriting his aunt Jackie Kennedy Onassis’s will — calling it “a textbook example of how not to handle an estate. Not a penny was sheltered.” He goes on to write that “John of course was indifferent to the whole thing,” seemingly referring to his cousin and Jackie’s son, John F. Kennedy Jr. Kennedy admitted to being a slave to “wild impulses” and “powerful demons” when it comes to sex, according to revelations from three volumes of secret diaries seen by The Post. The diaries came to light in 2013, a year after the suicide of his second wife Mary Richardson Kennedy. The thick, red journals were found in their home by Mary, who was distraught over their impending divorce and his serial philandering. Although they chronicle Kennedy’s daily life with his children and marriage to Mary as well as his global travel on behalf of environmental groups, they also record the names of women — with numbers from 1 to 10 next to each entry. The codes corresponded to sexual acts, with 10 meaning intercourse, Mary told a confidant.AI Stocks: Tech Giants, Cloud Titans Face 'Show Me' Moment. Palantir Soars.
Joe Rogan said that Democrats are “scrambling” to “create their own version” of his popular Spotify podcast following Donald Trump’s win in the 2024 presidential election. The host of “ ” had interviewed Trump in October but was unable to bring Vice President Kamala Harris on as a guest. “I think these ‘Call Her Daddy’ [podcast] shows and all these different shows that [Harris] went on, I mean, I’m sure they had an impact,” he told software engineer Marc Andreessen. “But I think that in the future, I’m sure they’re scrambling to try to create their own version of this show. This is one thing that keeps coming up, like, ‘We need our own Joe Rogan.’” Rogan also showed support for independent candidate and vaccine skeptic Robert F. Kennedy Jr. for president in this year’s election, calling him the “ ” in August. He later clarified in a , formerly Twitter, that he wasn’t endorsing Kennedy despite praising him. Over the summer, Rogan said he “could see” Harris triumphing over Trump in November’s election. “I’m saying it because she could,” Rogan said during a of his podcast, not long after President Joe Biden from his campaign. “I’m not saying it because I think she’s going to, and I’m not saying it because I want her to. I’m just being honest. I could see her winning.” On Tuesday, Harris’ campaign aides explained on why the vice president’s interview with Rogan fell through. “I hate to repeat this over and over, but it was a very short race with a limited number of days and for a candidate to leave the battleground and go to Houston, which is a day off the playing field in the battleground [states],” Stephanie Cutter said. “So, we had discussions with Joe Rogan’s team. They were great. They wanted us to come on. We wanted to come on. We tried to get a date to make it work, and ultimately we just weren’t able to find a date.” Cutter claimed that Rogan’s team “never confirmed” with them and Trump ended up taping with Rogan that same day, adding, “We kind of figured that out in the leadup to it.” Another Harris aide, David Plouffe, added: “We offered to do it in Austin. People should know that. Didn’t work out. I think maybe they leveraged that to get Trump in studio. And then we were obviously not going to be back in Texas but offered to do it on the road.” Elsewhere in the “Pod Save America” interview, Cutter reflected on whether appearing on Rogan’s show would have given Harris a leg up in the race considering she from young voters in the election. “[The interview] would have broken through, not because of the conversation with Joe Rogan, but because of the fact that she was doing it — and that was really the benefit of it,” Cutter explained. “Will she do it in the future? Maybe. Who knows? But it didn’t ultimately impact the outcome one way or the other. But she was willing to do whatever it takes.” Related...Jim Harbaugh and Chargers focused on accomplishing more after wrapping up playoff berth
No. 5 Alabama has a reputation as 3-point gunners, but it's defense and rebounding that have become a focus as the Tide welcome South Dakota State to Tuscaloosa, Ala., to end the 2024 calendar year. Alabama (10-2) is frequently thought of as an offensive 3-point shooting free-for-all program, but Nate Oats' 2024-25 squad has thrived largely on the basis of inside play. The Tide are shooting 62.2 percent on their two-point attempts and grab 45 rebounds per game, each figure placing the team among the national leaders in those categories. Alabama does still shoot an average of 31 3-point shots per game, again one of the nation's highest totals. But so far, Alabama's 31.2 percent connection rate is very ordinary. But connecting inside and owning the glass has held benefits for Alabama. Meanwhile, defense has concerned Oats, particularly coming off a 97-90 win over North Dakota on Dec. 18. Oats issued warnings about players losing spots in the rotation if defensive execution didn't improve. Alabama passed the first post-North Dakota test in an 81-54 win over Kent State on Sunday. "We did make a big point of emphasis on defense, especially after that debacle up in North Dakota," said Oats after the Kent State victory. "It was a much better defensive effort, so it will be a lot better Christmas break for us." Alabama won the rebounding battle over Kent State 60-40, although Oats contended that the Tide "gave up too many second-chance points." Alabama made 72 percent of its two-point attempts even as just 9 of 35 3-point attempts connected. Alabama has battled personnel uncertainty early in the season. An Achilles injury ended the season of guard Latrell Wrightsell Jr. just as transfer Chris Youngblood was preparing to return from an ankle injury. The Tide have 11 players averaging double-digit minutes and eight averaging 7.4 points per game or better, led by super senior guard Mark Sears with 17.8 ppg. Super senior forward Grant Nelson remains a key player, leading the Tide with 8.7 rebounds per game while adding 12.8 ppg. Meanwhile, South Dakota State (9-5) will pin its upset hopes largely on Aussie transfer Oscar Cluff. A 6-foot-11 senior who transferred in from Washington State, Cluff has averaged 16.6 points and 10.8 rebounds per game. Cluff is connecting on 71.4 percent of his shot attempts. He's also shooting 79.2 percent at the foul line and has stabilized a young Jackrabbits team with four freshmen among the top seven scorers. "Oscar's just built the right way," said coach Eric Henderson. "We have probably played through the post more than any other team in the country the last five years and we just felt like we needed a big man that had some experience and boy does he ever." Cluff had a streak of five straight double-doubles, but that ended in recent losses to Nevada and Colorado. The Jackrabbits won 87-72 over Chadron State in their last game on Dec. 19. --Field Level MediaTrudeau's Pre-Election Economic Lifeline: Tax Breaks and Checks
PHILADELPHIA — Saquon Barkley rushed for 167 yards to top 2,000 on the season, backup quarterback Kenny Pickett ran and threw for scores before departing with injured ribs, and the Philadelphia Eagles clinched the NFC East title by routing the Dallas Cowboys 41-7 on Sunday. Barkley has 2,005 yards and needs 101 in next week’s mostly meaningless regular-season finale to top Eric Dickerson and his 2,105 yards for the Los Angeles Rams in 1984. The Eagles led 24-7 in the third quarter when Pickett was drilled by defensive end Micah Parsons, ending his first start in place of the concussed Jalen Hurts. Tanner McKee, a career third-stringer, entered the game and the Eagles finished the drive with a field goal. McKee later threw two TD passes, a 20-yarder to A.J. Brown and a 25-yarder to DeVonta Smith, in front of a roaring crowd delighted to watch the Eagles dominate their fiercest rival to wrap up the division title and at least the No. 2 seed in the NFC. Hurts was injured in last week’s loss at Washington and remains in the NFL’s concussion protocol — he didn’t practice all week — which opened the door for Pickett to start. VIKINGS 27, PACKERS 25: Sam Darnold added another exploit to his career-altering season, passing for a personal-best 377 yards and three touchdowns as host Minnesota hung on to beat Green Bay for its ninth consecutive victory, putting the V Vikings one win from the NFC’s top seed for the playoffs. Darnold hit Jalen Nailor, Jordan Addison and Cam Akers for scores to raise his passing touchdown total to 35, the fourth-most in NFL history by a player in his debut season with a team. The Vikings set up a final-week showdown in Detroit for both the NFC North title and the first-round-bye-plus-home-field-advantage package that comes with the best record in the conference. Jordan Love’s only touchdown pass for the Packers came with 2:18 left, a 3-yard toss to Malik Heath that trimmed their deficit to two points and reignited the “Go Pack Go!” chants from the green-clad fans mixed in among the purple in another classic edition of this divisional rivalry. Baker Mayfield threw for 359 yards and five touchdowns to help Tampa Bay keep its division title and playoff hopes alive with a home blowout over Carolina. Tampa Bay’s fifth win in the past six weeks nudged the first-place Bucs a half-game ahead of Atlanta for the best record in the NFC South, with the Falcons set to play on the road later Sunday night at Washington. Atlanta holds the tiebreaker in the division race and can end Tampa Bay’s three-year reign as NFC South champions by beating the Commanders and winning again next week at home against the last-place Panthers. Mayfield threw TD passes of 2 and 1 yards to Mike Evans, and Tampa Bay produced points on five straight possessions to build a 27-7 lead. Jalen McMillan scored on receptions of 10 and 16 yards, linebacker J.J. Russell returned a blocked punt for a TD, and rookie Bucky Irving had another big game against Carolina with 120 yards rushing on 20 carries and four receptions for 77 yards. New York snapped a franchise-record 10-game losing streak and ended Indianapolis’ slim playoff hopes as Drew Lock threw four touchdown passes and ran for another. New York earned its first home win of the season and it no longer has control of the No. 1 overall pick in the draft. Lock sandwiched touchdown passes of 31 and 59 yards to Malik Nabers around TD passes of 32 yards to Darius Slayton and 5 yards to Wan’Dale Robinson in leading the Giants to their first win since beating Seattle on Oct. 6. Aidan O’Connell passed for two touchdowns, tight end Brock Bowers broke two rookie NFL records, and Las Vegas won for just the fourth time this season, beating struggling New Orleans at the Superdome. Ameer Abdullah rushed for 115 yards for the Raiders — the journeyman running back’s first 100-yard game in his 10 NFL seasons. Josh Allen threw two touchdown passes and ran for another score, and host Buffalo clinched the AFC’s No. 2 seed with a rout of unraveling New York. The Bills put the game away by capitalizing on two Jets turnovers and scoring three touchdowns over a 5:01 span in the closing minutes of the third quarter. Buffalo’s defense forced three takeaways overall and sacked Aaron Rodgers four times, including a 2-yard loss for a safety in the second quarter. Mac Jones threw two touchdown passes, including one to standout rookie Brian Thomas Jr., and host Jacksonville beat Tennessee in the rain to sweep the season series for the fourth time in 30 years. Jones completed 15 of 22 passes for 174 yards, with most of them going to Thomas. The first-round draft pick from LSU finished with seven receptions for 91 yards. His 11-yard TD catch with 7:05 remaining gave him his eighth game with at least 60 yards and a score, tying him with Hall of Famer Randy Moss for the most by a rookie in NFL history. DOLPHINS 20, BROWNS 3: Tyler Huntley scrambled for a touchdown and threw for one while starting for Tua Tagovailoa, and Miami stayed in the playoff race heading into its season finale with a road victory over Cleveland. Miami needs to win next weekend at the New York Jets and hope the Denver Broncos lose at home to Kansas City to get a wild-card berth. Unfortunately for the Dolphins, quarterback Patrick Mahomes and many of the top-seeded Chiefs’ starters are expected to rest.

Illinois was down 31-30 when it sent long kicker Ethan Moczulski out for a desperation 58-yard field goal with 14 seconds to go. Rutgers coach Greg Schiano then called for a timeout right before Moczulski’s attempt was wide left and about 15 yards short. After the missed field goal was waved off by the timeout, Illinois coach Bret Bielema sent his offense back on the field. Altmyer hit Bryant on an in cut on the left side at the 22, and he continued across the field and scored untouched.
