Nippon Steel is pushing back on concerns raised by the Biden administration that its pending acquisition of U.S. Steel for $14.9 billion would undermine U.S. national security. President-elect Donald Trump pledges to block Nippon Steel’s $14 billion acquisition of U.S. Steel, citing national security and domestic ownership concerns. The deal is under review by CFIUS, with a decision expected next month. Opposition comes from Trump, President Biden, and U.S. labor unions, but Nippon Steel aims to close by year-end. WASHINGTON - President-elect Donald Trump announced Monday that he would block Nippon Steel’s $14 billion acquisition of U.S. Steel, citing the need to protect domestic manufacturing and national security. The Japanese steel giant has been working to finalize the purchase before Trump is sworn in as president on January 20, but the deal has faced significant political and labor opposition. "I am totally against the once great and powerful U.S. Steel being bought by a foreign company, in this case Nippon Steel of Japan," Trump wrote on Truth Social. "Through a series of tax incentives and tariffs, we will make U.S. Steel strong and great again, and it will happen FAST! As president, I will block this deal from happening. Buyer Beware!!!" President Biden has already referred the proposed sale to the Committee on Foreign Investment in the United States (CFIUS), a federal panel tasked with assessing foreign investments for national security implications. CFIUS, chaired by Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen, has until next month to issue its findings, which could include recommending approval with conditions, blocking the transaction, or extending the review. Biden has also expressed concerns about maintaining U.S. Steel’s domestic ownership, calling it "vital" for national security and the American economy. Despite domestic opposition, Japanese Prime Minister Shigeru Ishiba has lobbied Biden to approve the transaction, emphasizing Nippon Steel’s contributions to global supply chains and economic ties with the U.S. According to Reuters, Nippon Steel remains confident it can finalize the purchase by the end of the year. Canada’s ambassador to the United States said Sunday that Prime Minister Justin Trudeau was successful in getting President-elect Donald Trump and key Cabinet nominees to understand that lumping Canada in with Mexico over the flow of drugs and migrants into the U.S. is unfair. LiveNOW from FOX host Carel Lajara spoke to Dr. Ernesto Castaneda, Director of Latin American & Latino Studies at American University on the latest. The deal has also drawn criticism from U.S. labor unions, which have echoed concerns about foreign ownership of one of America’s most iconic manufacturing companies. Trump and Biden’s shared stance on the matter underscores the bipartisan nature of protecting domestic industries in the face of foreign acquisitions. The CFIUS panel’s decision, expected next month, will likely shape the future of the deal. If Trump follows through with his plan to use tariffs and tax incentives as leverage, Nippon Steel could face additional challenges even if the purchase gains federal approval. U.S. Steel, a cornerstone of American industry for over a century, now stands at a crossroads as political and economic forces converge to influence its ownership and operation.ORANGEBURG, S.C. (AP) — Ryan Stubblefield threw for two touchdowns and ran for two more to lead South Carolina State to a 53-21 win over Norfolk State on Saturday. The Bulldogs (9-2, 5-0 Mid-Eastern Athletic Conference), who have their most wins since getting nine in 2013, wrapped up the conference title and a Celebration Bowl berth a week earlier. They play the Southwestern Athletic Conference champion in Atlanta on Dec. 14. The Spartans (4-8, 2-3) led 14-10 after one quarter but the Bulldogs scored the next 29 points. Stubblefield scored the go-ahead touchdown on a 3-yard keeper late in the second quarter, capping a seven-play, 76-yard drive. Then he found Einaj Carter for 10-yard touchdown in the third as the Spartans pulled away. KZ Adams, who had 128 yards on 18 carries, then ran for a pair of touchdowns, making it 39-14 in the opening minute of the fourth quarter. Jalen Daniels threw a touchdown pass and ran for a score for the Spartans. AP college football: https://apnews.com/hub/ap-top-25-college-football-poll and https://apnews.com/hub/college-football .

I like Martha Stewart. Always have. Two recent documentaries, "Martha" on Netflix and the CNN series "The Many Lives of Martha Stewart," follow the Greek drama that make Stewart a cultural fascination to this day. They recount the jihad against this visionary who came under attack for being a woman with fierce ambition. Admittedly, Stewart's hardedged perfectionism and nuclear-powered drive had created some tension with her product, the "soft" home arts of cooking, flower arranging and chair reupholstering. But did she have to be destroyed? Sure, Stewart engaged in some insider trading that may have seemed nothing more than an innocent stock tip. She shouldn't have lied about it to the FBI. But did journalist Dominick Dunne have to call her the "Goddess of Greed" over a transaction that saved the creator of a billion-dollar business only $45,673? It sure didn't merit five months in prison. In 1987, the cultural hyenas jumped on her for signing a $5 million contract with Kmart. Stewart was allegedly "selling out" the domestic lifestyle she had cultivated, moving away from authenticity toward mass production and profit. Heaven forfend. The year before, The Disney Co.'s CEO walked off with a $90 million severance check after 14 months of undistinguished performance. She was tenacious. So what? Male executives wore that badge proudly. This woman built a business empire based on creating artistic cheese trays and making wreaths from dry leaves. Try that, Elon Musk. Some of her trouble came in the sub-message that our home lives had turned slovenly because Americans had stopped caring about family dinners and dust balls under the sofa. Some translated that not as a call to do better but as an indictment. But Stewart had no army. Those who accused her of creating unrealistic expectations for women juggling work and family should have been asked: Whose expectations? One could simply enjoy watching her on TV or reading her magazine, Martha Stewart Living. Her projects were properly labeled "aspirational." I once tried to follow her instructions for coloring cloth with natural vegetable dyes. Two hours later, I ended up with blotchy fabric and hands stained by beet juice. I tried, I failed, and I had a funny story to tell. I was intrigued by her demonstration on how to roll an ironed tablecloth in parchment paper to prevent wrinkles. And how nice that she could whip up 80 perfectly iced little cakes in no time. I can't do a single backflip. Must I resent Simone Biles for executing a triple-double in one move? It took Superwoman strength to plant an orchard with 122 trees and who knows how many rose bushes. One interviewer noted that people living in Detroit or New York City couldn't do rose gardens. She responded, "But yes, they want roses." The fantasy was more than half the point. Women were among her leading inquisitors. One called her "the most intimidating homemaker on earth." Another female interviewer tells her, "Either they worship you or they say you make us crazy." There was a third possibility — that they found her entertaining. Stewart can lay claim to two heroic feats: She played a big part in improving the quality of American homelife. And she rebuilt a business that had been left for dead. Above all, Martha was a great tough broad. You saw how TV's Larry King kept badgering her about her failed marriage in a way that would have seemed bizarre had the executive been a man. "I had sacrificed a marriage because of the allure of a great job," she finally relented. And she didn't regret it? She did not. I like Stewart, still going strong at 83. More than ever.
