was really, really concerned about what this incident, which was never going to disappear, was going to do to his kids and how he was going to restore his legacy and how he was going to make this up to his family. >> kobe bryant did not invent girldad. he just perfected it. it just felt like the future was limitless for him. then, in a heartbeat, it all stops in the most horrific way imaginable. >> the first half of his career is like people was attacking his character. the end of it is like people was loving this guy. >> because we watched how he had transformed once he stopped playing basketball. >> my little 11 year old gianna goes, well, dad, you always tell us to go after our dreams. >> fatherhood meant
1:01 am
>> welcome to all of you watching us here in the united states, canada and around the world. i'm kim brunhuber. this is cnn newsroom. america's three largest trading partners react to president donald trump's steep tariffs. how canada, china and mexico are responding. and it's not just an issue for politicians and policymakers. we'll look at how these tariffs could impact consumers. and democrats have a new party chair near his pointed message about taking on trump and the republican party. >> live from atlanta. this is cnn newsroom with kim brunhuber. >> we begin this hour with what looks like a trade war. as u.s. president donald trump imposes new tariffs on mexico, canada and china. several corporations and business groups are lashing out, warning trump that his tariffs will actually make things more expensive for
1:02 am
americans. he placed a 25% tariff on all imports from mexico, and most goods from canada, and a 10% duty on chinese imports. president trump signed the orders at his mar-a-lago club on saturday, fulfilling a promise he made on the campaign trail. but he admitted that it will have an impact on the american people. here he is. >> there could be some temporary short term disruption, and people will understand that. but the tariffs are going to make us very rich and very strong, and we're going to treat other countries very fairly. >> mexico's president claudia sheinbaum says she will implement a plan that includes tariff and non-tariff measures against the u.s., but she didn't elaborate on what that would involve. here she is. >> cuando negotiate. >> when we negotiate with other nations, when we talk with other nations, always with our heads held high, never bowing our heads, we are equal with all the nations of the world. mexico is free, independent, and a
1:03 am
sovereign country, and that is in the way which we defend. mexicans and our homeland. >> mexico is america's largest trading partner, exporting $467 billion worth of goods to the u.s. last year. and that includes things like fruits, vegetables, steel, beer and alcohol. canadian prime minister justin trudeau also announced his own 25% tariffs on u.s. goods. he says they will be far reaching and include everyday items. meanwhile, officials in china are promising countermeasures with these new u.s. tariffs. so we want to go to cnn's mark stewart live in beijing. so, mark, how is china responding to all of this? >> well, kim, the real question is what are these countermeasures? what exactly will they entail? we know that china will file a complaint with the world trade organization saying this 10% tariff seriously violates the rules. but beyond that, it's not very clear. right now, we are in the midst of the chinese new year. so the
1:04 am
government has not had its typical question and answer session with reporters. so as far as the specific countermeasures, we may not know until perhaps mid to later this week, it's something we're going to keep a watch on. but i did talk to one expert who suggests that what china can do is perhaps limited in the sense that it's already dealing with trade issues with europe concerning electric vehicles and solar panels. essentially flooding some european markets with cheap items in a way to attract business for chinese companies. that's been a big point of contention right now between china and europe, and taking up a lot of energy there. in addition, the chinese economy right now, it's kind of shaky. people aren't spending as much money as they did in the past. there are remnants of a housing crisis. so that too may limit exactly what kind of punishments
1:05 am
china will do. typically, when we look at this u.s. china relationship, it's very much for tat. you do something to hurt me. i'm going to do something to hurt you back. but it's not clear if china has that leverage. in fact, it's quite possible that it just may try to leverage its supply chain and not institute any kind of tariffs, as we traditionally have seen. but none of this really is a surprise to china. this is something that president trump talked about during the campaign. this possibility of tariffs. china also knows just how fragile the world landscape is. china has depended on the u.s. very much as a large export market, but in recent months we have seen it expand its export reach, not just depending on the united states, but looking at places such as southeast asia, latin america, africa, even russia in an attempt to spread its business. also, it's important to note that china that the united states said it's instituting these tariffs
1:06 am
because it's not satisfied with how china has been responding to the fentanyl crisis. china did respond to that, saying it has shown its support to the u.s., but the fentanyl crisis is very much an american problem. kim. >> all right. so as you say, we'll have to wait to see exactly how china will react. mark stewart in beijing, thank you so much. and we get more now on canada's reaction from cnn's paula newton in ottawa. >> canada says it feels like a country targeted and scorned by the united states. the reaction here was visceral, emotional, but also clear headed about the devastating challenges ahead for the canadian economy. and keep in mind, donald trump is ripping up an agreement that he signed with canada in terms of trade, canada is now coming to terms with the fact that he no longer wants that relationship. listen. >> i don't think there's a lot of americans who wake up in the morning saying, oh, canada. oh, we should really go after
1:07 am
canada. we're there as friends, as partners. we always have been. we always will be. yes, we've had our differences in the past, but we've always found a way to get past them. as i've said before, if president trump wants to usher in a new golden age for the united states, the better path is to partner with canada, not to punish us. >> and so canada will retaliate. about $155 billion in total canadian $30 billion of that will come on tuesday. the 25% tariffs to match the trump administration tariffs. the bulk of that though will come in three weeks. canada saying it wants businesses some time to prepare. but keep in mind here this will be a losing battle for everyone in terms of consumers and businesses that now try to
1:08 am
adjust. and the bottom line is the president himself has said that he will now retaliate because canada retaliated. in turn, this is the beginning of what could be a very nasty trade war. and it could also rebalance the trade relationship between the united states and so many of its allies. paula newton, cnn, ottawa. >> all right. i want to bring in ryan patel, senior fellow at the drucker school of management at claremont graduate university, and joins us from los angeles. good to see you again, my friend. so listen, we ran through some of the things that are likely to be more expensive. donald trump calls tariffs beautiful. he says tariffs are going to make us very rich. but again, we have to be clear here. that tariffs hit the person importing the goods. so that's you know, u.s. businesses. and eventually the customer right. >> i know you have to think about the terror. you know this trade war tariffs. you think about a domino effect right. one
1:09 am
tariff leads to another. so the challenge is for businesses if you think about it, isn't really the immediate impact. but how do they pivot. they must evolve. and then obviously pass down to the consumer. so if you think about the short term impact, i think about maybe if this goes on for the next 1 to 3 months, it's really businesses trying to do their best job to delay the price increases. right. that's what they're trying to do to keep those margins, margins. but after that, kim, it is going to be passed on. all those strategies are going to be passed on to the consumer, and they're going to start to feel it. >> yeah. and supply chains are so interconnected. so if you know the the it costs the grocery store, let's say 25% more to import an avocado and then 10% more to, to transport it to the store because gas costs more. i mean, that adds up, right? >> yeah. you know, i think this is where if you look at the numbers, right, you see, you know, the u.s., you know, is being easier on the energy costs because they know that, you know, up to 10%. i think as of right now, if they did it more, the consumer would feel it right away. so if you think about the
1:10 am
less flexible supply chains that you mentioned, that could be easily impact quicker, like examples like electronics, clothing, some produce and the raw materials, we'll see those a lot more faster for the consumer to feeling that. and i think again, compounding with the energy costs is why i think the way president trump was laying out his plan. to me, it's kind of a wait and see approach. he didn't use all of it right away. there's a i mean, if you think of logic, the question becomes, what is it you're trying to gain in these bilateral deals? and what places is he looking for to help? what industries? >> yeah, that is the question. in the meantime, though, we do have this, you know, basically a trade war on the wall street journal editorial board called it the dumbest trade war in history, because, of course, the nations affected are also responding with tariffs. so everyone is hurt here on all sides. i want to play a clip from the head of the world trade organization talking to cnn last
1:11 am
weekend about trump's threat of tariffs before they came in. so here she is. >> actually i've been saying to members at davos, let's chill. let's not get too overexcited. and to our members i've also been saying, look, let's not do any for tat. it's not when you hear something from one member, you immediately apply counter tariffs. >> but of course right away now we are seeing for tat tariffs. so her message to chill out not exactly resonating here. >> yeah. and i think i mean it is it's kind of hard where we think of the global economy has evolved and how we define value. it's not just tariffs. we think about security. it's tied into it. so it's not just, you know, the families, the jobs, the agriculture, the industries. i can go down the list. that is affected. and to be able to send that strong message is, is something that seems like the countries are not willing to sacrifice. but at the end of the
1:12 am
day, i also think, have we learned anything? has businesses have learned anything from four years ago? did they stay more competitive? did they evolve to help in the short term? again, we know that president trump has been using this and will continue to use this as a negotiation tactic and would not be surprised to see, like they did last time there was a deal to be had. but again, we don't know all the details yet just yet. as you mentioned, you don't want to jump jump to see what is their conclusions, but it'll be interesting to see in the next couple of weeks how it looks in the escalation of this will be really key. >> yeah, absolutely. and whether there will be any beneficiaries, i mean, normally tariffs are used to protect domestic domestic industries or bring back manufacturing to the u.s. soil. so will there be beneficiaries? will it will it do that in any way. well. >> if you talk about mexico and canada, right, there's a lot of different produce. and, you know, if you think about certain items that go really heavily for canada and mexico, being the largest trade partner for the u.s. so i think what you're asking me is, is pretty, pretty
1:13 am
more with china is where this kind of becomes a factor of bringing that manufacturing back home because of the nafta and those kind of agreements. so i see of the mexico and canada relationship more differently than they do with china when it comes to more protectionist, you know, protection tariffs behind that. that's where you haven't really seen the language from president trump just yet in bringing more things back from canada and mexico. it's more about deals. at the end of the day. >> all right. as you know i always like to end our conversations with your message to consumers. so is there anything that we can do to insulate ourselves from this? if you were planning to to buy that car, get down to the dealership today. >> you know, my message is always to try to don't spend the money that you don't have. and i think part of this is to keep an eye on big purchases. you know, i don't have a crystal ball to see if this is going to go longer to 1 to 6 months. but, you know, the short term purchases that are very vital to
1:14 am
to your needs and are volatile, you know, to that degree you look to kind of you look to maybe purchase them. but again, i think when you think of the long term aspect to really feel it, it's got to be at least 6 to 12 months when it comes to the items that have a better supply chain. so don't panic just yet. you hope for the best, but you have to be wary of the things that you're spending on because things will get more expensive. the average check when you go to the grocery store will rise, and you have to plan for that, and you have to put some money to the side for a rainy day, too. and that's what i would probably be. my message to the consumers save and put a little bit to the side, just in case. >> yeah. great advice. so much still up in the air. ryan patel in los angeles, thanks so much. >> thank you. >> well, trump administration is making its america first policy known on the international stage. marco rubio landed in panama on saturday, kicking off his first trip as u.s. secretary of state. he'll stop in five central american nations to drive forward trump's policies,

1:20 am
returning from a camp in kansas. a flight attendant living one of her dreams also lost her life, as well as friends returning from a hunting trip and a pilot to be married this fall. cnn's brian todd has the latest. >> the latest information we have from the ntsb regarding the investigation into this collision gave one very dramatic account of the timeline leading up to the collision. a few very horrifying seconds where the plane was approaching reagan national airport and the helicopter pilots were asked at 840 7:39 p.m. on wednesday night whether they had the plane in sight at eight 4742, the controllers asked the helicopter to pass behind the passenger jet. this is according to the ntsb, at 840 7:58 p.m., the crew heard a verbal the crew of the passenger plane was heard giving a verbal reaction to something that was happening and one second later, according to the ntsb, they heard the sound of
1:21 am
impact. so all of this unfolding in just a few very horrifying seconds over the potomac river, another very key piece of information from the ntsb was that the crew of the passenger plane, the pilots of that plane, may very well have tried some kind of an evasive maneuver. at the very last second, they said that the passenger plane was at 325ft above the ground at the time of impact, give or take about 25ft. when asked if the passenger plane's pilot tried some kind of a maneuver to pull up, todd inman of the ntsb said they did detect some kind of a change in pitch, meaning that there could very well have been an evasive maneuver attempted at the very last second by the pilot of the passenger plane. but of course, it was too late to avoid the collision. brian todd, cnn at reagan national airport. >> the next phase of the indirect israel-hamas ceasefire talks are scheduled to begin next week. israeli prime minister benjamin netanyahu is due to meet with u.s. president donald trump in washington on
1:22 am
tuesday. netanyahu left israel for washington, dc a short time ago. meanwhile, egypt says a hamas delegation is expected in cairo now in tel aviv saturday. thousands of protesters gathered outside israel's defense ministry and hostage square. they're calling for the release of all remaining hostages in gaza. now, this comes after the latest round of hostage and prisoner releases on saturday. cnn jerusalem correspondent jeremy diamond shows you how they went. >> keith siegel children have waited too long for this moment. for 51 days, their mother was held hostage by hamas. it took another 433 days for their father, a dual american israeli citizen, to come home. in kibbutz gaza, friends and family began the day huddled together, watching the news, anxiously waiting for his release. >> excited and scared, anxious, hopeful. just praying that that

1:29 am
>> welcome back to all of you watching us here in the united states, canada and around the world. i'm kim brunhuber. this is cnn newsroom. mexico, canada and china are hitting back at the u.s. after president donald trump imposed aggressive new tariffs on all three countries. he placed a 25% tariff on all imports from mexico, and most goods from canada. energy imports from canada will face a 10% tariff. trump's new tariff from chinese imports is also set at 10%. now trump is fulfilling a promise he made on the campaign trail and repeated hours after taking office. >> furious tariffs are going to make us rich as hell. instead of taxing our citizens to enrich other countries, we will tariff and tax foreign countries to enrich our citizens. the tariffs
1:30 am
i told you most beautiful word in the dictionary. >> now several corporations and business groups are lashing out, warning the president that his tariffs will actually make things more expensive for americans. that could include some of the top imports from canada, like oil, minerals, cement, wood and paper goods. and in retaliation, canadian prime minister justin trudeau announced his own 25% tariffs on u.s. goods. ontario's premier doug ford, is warning that this is going to cause inflation for both countries. here he is. >> speaking of. >> retaliatory measures. it's unfortunate. we don't want to do it. we'd rather have a strong trading partner with the u.s. we want to ship down more products, more critical minerals, more oil. that's what we want to do. but i can i can assure you what president trump underestimates the resilience of the canadian people, the strength of the canadian people, no matter what political stripe you come from in canada, we're
1:31 am
united. >> so now many people are asking what exactly are tariffs, how do they work? and most importantly, how will they affect me? cnn's phil mattingly has the answers. >> what is a tariff? it's cool to ask, really, especially with donald trump back in the white house. now, simply put, a tariff is a tax on imported goods. but what does that actually mean? let's try this. say these t-shirts are sold by a u.s. company. some hypothetical, but obviously super cool clothing brand. and you have to have one of these t-shirts. but these shirts aren't actually made in the united states. they're produced by an international company which is outside the u.s. now, that means the u.s. company needs to import the shirt that you covet. now, for the sake of hypothetical, let's just say for 20 bucks a pop, which the u.s. company then turns around and sells for, say, 60 bucks each, which is an insane price to pay for a t-shirt. but hey, look, you do
1:32 am
you. but what happens if the u.s. government imposes a tariff on your coveted t-shirt? why? well, historically, there are two triggers for tariffs. one, to protect a domestic industry. in this case, maybe the u.s. t-shirt industry is getting crushed. and two, raise government revenues, regardless of the reason. let's just say the government has now imposed a 10% tariff on our t-shirts, which means that the american company that imports the same t-shirt, it costs $22. now, history tells us the american company isn't just going to eat that cost margins. they matter. so they pass that cost on to you, the consumer. now i get it. you have to have this shirt. so a couple extra bucks, you know, no big deal. but you're asking about tariffs for one reason. president donald trump, a guy who fervently believes in tariffs, so much so that he's
1:33 am
proposed tariffs across the board on every imported good from anywhere. universal tariffs. now think about that couple extra bucks you were cool with shelling out for that trendy t-shirt. what if it wasn't just the shirt but everything imported that you buy? >> well, businesspeople and investors are already reacting to the new tariffs. cnn global economy analyst rana foroohar tells us they're concerned about a lack of clarity over the goal of the punitive measures. here she is. >> the president has put some very nebulous criteria on in terms of what he's what kind of, you know, what success looks like for him. he's saying, we'll know that the tariffs are working when people stop dying of fentanyl overdoses are we are seizing more fentanyl at the border. that's that's a very squishy metric. um, it's very unprecedented. there have been estimates showing that these numbers, the 25%, um, on mexico and canada, with the exception
1:34 am
of 10% on canadian oil, 10% on china, that that could be a $20 billion hit to u.s. gdp. that's not nothing. and i think there's also a huge fear factor here. you know, i'm talking to investors that, frankly, are starting to think, gosh, we really want to diversify away from the u.s. in terms of our portfolio because we just don't know what's going to happen. i think that uncertainty is huge. >> meanwhile, the white house is looking to ramp up its deportation policies. a source tells us that the trump administration is preparing to revoke the legal status of migrants who entered the u.s. under a biden era program. the move could affect about half a million migrants from nicaragua, cuba, venezuela and haiti. they arrived during president biden's term under a humanitarian parole program and were allowed to temporarily live and work in the u.s. we spoke to the former acting director of ice, the u.s. immigration and customs enforcement, and he explains, these migrants are an easy target under trump's mass
1:35 am
deportation program. >> because these people were paroled into the united states and because they just recently entered the united states. ice believes it can just revoke the paroles and then deport them. i think the other reasons this population is vulnerable is because ice is a good information about where they are. typically, these people are checking in with ice as they go through the process. so look, on one hand you could sit here and say, boy, it's stunning that biden, the united states government, gave these people permission to come in. they didn't cross the border illegally. they came in legally with permission from the government. seems really unfair for the government to arrest them. but from an operational perspective, i understand why the administration wants to focus on them. they're low hanging fruit, easy to arrest, easy to deport. >> president trump says venezuela has agreed to receive venezuelan nationals deported from the u.s., and has further agreed to supply the transportation back. that social media post from trump came just one day after his special missions envoy met with venezuelan president nicolas maduro in caracas. the result?

the release of six americans who had been detained there. venezuela under maduro has previously refused to take venezuelan nationals back, and the u.s. has generally been unable to send them back because of frosty relations. cnn has reached out to the venezuelan government for comment. the website for usaid, the u.s. agency for international development, has disappeared. democrats fear that the trump administration is trying to absorb the independent, congressionally funded humanitarian agency into the state department, lawyers say president trump has no legal authority to do so. usaid has been caught in the trump administration's crosshairs as the white house works to freeze foreign aid and development across the world. meanwhile, the u.s. centers for disease control and prevention is also purging critical information and data from its website. several web pages, including those related to hiv and lgbtq youth, went dark on friday. this comes after trump's executive orders to

1:38 am
chair of the minnesota state democratic party, and he earned the majority of votes here at the dnc meeting on saturday. coming in second place was ben wikler, the state chair of the wisconsin democratic party. it all comes as democrats are trying to sort out how they will challenge trump in the years to come. that is something that ken martin said he is very focused on in his early days as dnc chair. this is the message that he said he had for president trump. >> we're coming. this is a new democratic party. we're taking the gloves off. i've always viewed my role as a chair of the democratic party to take the low road. so my candidates and elected officials can take the high road, meaning i'm going to throw a punch. so donald trump, republican party, this is a new dnc. we are not going to sit back and not take you on when you fail the american people. >> in addition to that much more aggressive tone he has previewed. he's also said that their focus on organizing, trying to build state apparatuses in order to prepare for this year's off year
