new favorite pair of jeans today. m taylor available on the apple app store or android. >> united states of scandal with jake. tapper returns tomorrow at nine on cnn. >> you're in the cnn newsroom. i'm jessica dean in new york. and president donald trump is threatening some new retaliatory tariffs on canadian dairy and lumber. and this comes at the end of a whiplash week where he stepped back on some of the other tariffs. the president is claiming canada is cheating american farmers with its 250% tariff on american dairy, and says he wants a matching tariff on canadian dairy. just days earlier, trump gave an exemption for cars and delayed other tariffs on mexico and canada for a month. cnn white house senior white house producer betsy klein is joining us now from west palm beach, florida. and betsy, as we've seen with these tariffs, more back and forth here. what are you learning about these new retaliatory tariffs potentially
2:02 pm
hitting canada next week? >> yeah whiplash is right jessica. and president trump has long used tariffs and specifically the threat of tariffs as a key negotiating tactic. but we saw this play out as he has targeted mexico and canada. america's neighbors on the topic of trying to get them to crack down on fentanyl. this played out with so much uncertainty for markets as well as american businesses and consumers. this week. starting r hearing from leaders of ford, gm and stellantis, the president ba on auto tariffs, pausing those for one month amid warnings from those leaders that it could impact domestic car sales. then on thursday, backed off altogether, announcing that he would lift those tariffs on mexico and canada again for one more month. that reprieve was short lived, though, because on friday he again warned of new
2:03 pm
tariffs on canadian dairy and lumber products to the tune of 250%. the president saying that this is about fairness. but of course, jessica, this is setting up a major test for the leaders of mexico and canada whose economies depend so much on u.s. markets. so we'll be watching how they handle the next month so closely. >> yeah. and i also want to ask you about this new reporting from the new york times about this fiery clash between elon musk and some cabinet members at a meeting in the white house. what is the president saying about that? >> yeah, jessica, an explosive meeting at the white house this week as president trump convened his cabinet along with elon musk, to talk about the role of doge the department of government efficiency. and according to the new york times, really moments of tension between musk and secretary of state marco rubio. as musk chided rubio for not doing more to slash the state department workforce. he also took aim at
2:04 pm
transportation secretary sean duffy, saying that duffy. duffy, taking aim at musk. i should say that doge has attempted to cut air traffic controllers after a number of major plane crashes, but all of this trump making clear that he is willing to impose some limits on musk and saying that it is the cabinet members who have the right to determine their department agency's staffing. of course, all of this quite notable as elon musk joined the president on his way to palm beach just this weekend on air force one. but we should note that asked about these changes, the president really downplayed any tension at that meeting, saying that there was no no dispute at all. jessica. >> all right. betsy klein, for us in west palm beach, thank you so much for that. let's talk more about these tariffs for a minute. the president was asked about the uncertainty surrounding his ever changing tariff policy during an interview with fox business yesterday. here's what he said.
2:05 pm
ceos want to. see predictability. they say, look, i have to speak with shareholders. i've got to make plans for capex spending. i can't if it's 20%. >> one day and then it's for a month and it's 25%. >> so can you. >> give us a sense. of whether or not we are going to get clarity for the business community? >> well, i think so. but you know, the tariffs could go up as time goes by and they may go up. and you know, i don't know if it's predictability i think. so that's not clarity. >> no. kansas farm bureau president and former state representative joe newland is joining us now. thank you so much for being here with us because i do want to talk more. they were talking about the business community there, but i want to talk about about farming and farmers and how this could potentially impact them. so let's just start first with the back and forth, the kind of uncertainty that floats around these tariffs. does that concern you? does that concern the farmers you're talking to? >> well. >> sure it. >> does. >> because as. >> we enter. >> our planting season and all right. >> now we. >> would like to have a lot more
2:06 pm
certainty. certainty not only on the tariffs, but as we talk about trade or as we talk about the farm jenin farm bill in general. you know, farm bureau supports the goals of security and ensuring fair trade. but farmers and rural. >> communities are. >> often put in the brunt of some of these tariffs. >> and the tariff retaliation. >> so we're hopeful that president trump can limit those trade disruptions. and at the very least, make sure that farmers who are already hurting can be taken care of and make sure we're not caught in the crosshairs of these tariffs. >> and you mentioned bearing the farmers bearing the brunt of a lot of this help. people understand kind of the machinations of all of that. for one thing, i think i'm pretty sure fertilizer, for example, that comes from canada might be tariffed, but but also to just a lot of what farmers grow is then exported. so how does that all work? >> yeah.
2:07 pm
>> you know, approximately 85% of the united states supply of potash. it's a key fertilizer that we use for growing corn and other crops comes from canada. and so when you do have a tariff on those on that commodity, it is a higher cost for our inputs. and then very much, you know, we export we export 30 to 40% of what we grow here in the state of kansas. and if you don't have those markets, then of course you're affecting the bottom line of each and every farmer and rancher. so we want to keep things fair and balanced, you know, and make sure that especially for our young farmers and ranchers, that we have a solid trade program. usmca is very much a part of what we do. the mexico and canada trade agreement has been in effect for some time now. we want to make sure those trade deals are kept place.
2:08 pm
>> and so you mentioned 30 to 40% of what farmers and ranchers are growing and producing is exported. obviously, you can understand why there would be some deep concern about what this might mean for them. what are you advising them right now? what are you saying to them when they come to you with concerns, with questions? >> well, first and foremost, you know, we have to be calm. we have to make sure that, you know, every day is a new day. and that president trump's situation and the way he handles tariffs and trade. but we've got to be more specific on what we do as far as trade, especially with other countries. we have other countries that we could do more trade deals with. the european union africa, india, those those countries. we should be trading more with developing these new trade agreements, i think is paramount of what we can do for the american farmer.
2:09 pm
>> and so that's looking outward, of course. and i hear you on developing those relationships as a revenue stream for these farmers, for americans here at home who are eating the food that these farmers are growing. how might this impact the prices that they're going to have to pay? >> well. >> it all depends on on the amount of tariffs that are put on these inputs that we bring in in, and more so as far as what we export as well, every dollar that we send out brings in $2 for our inputs. so we want our for our commodities. so we want to make sure that american farmers stay strong, if that develops to be cheaper and more productive food for our american people. but for the people around the world, our food that we produce is the cheapest, the most safe product that people
2:10 pm
can buy. and that's what we want to make sure people can get their hands on. >> and if, again, as we've noted many times, we don't know where this all ends, this is the part of the issue here is the uncertainty, because it's hard for everyone to plan around that. but but if this moves forward and it becomes increasingly difficult for farmers to export that food and what they're producing, how long can they go on like that in that environment? >> well, we don't sell products every day. you know, it's seasonal for us. and so the vegetable growers, it's different. but here in kansas, the wheat, corn and soybeans, the beef, the pork that we produce, you know, we're not selling it every single day. so we can plan ahead a little bit. but with that said, we have to protect that product and also that we can increase trade, increase the profitability of
2:11 pm
our farmers and ranchers. >> all right, joe nolan, thank you for giving us some really valuable context around that whole discussion. farmers and ranchers making up, of course, a really integral part of the american economy. so we really appreciate that. >> thank you so much. i appreciate the opportunity. >> yeah. still ahead, president trump confirms the u.s. is negotiating directly with hamas for the very first time. what we're learning about talks for a new phase of the ceasefire deal with israel. plus $400 million worth of government contracts and grants canceled. why the trump administration is pulling funding from columbia university. you're in the cnn newsroom. >> twitter. breaking the bird premieres tomorrow night at ten on cnn. >> saquon barkley french

2:16 pm
cruises. >> latest offers. >> when it comes to rooting out corruption. do the fbi's. ends justify the means? >> it was humiliating. it's an. embarrassment for the country. >> united states of scandal with jake tapper tomorrow at nine on cnn new tonight israel says it will send a team to doha monday, as the u.s. >> and key middle east negotiators qatar and egypt look to restart negotiations on phase two of a ceasefire and hostage release deal. of course, this is happening as a hamas spokesperson says they see, quote, positive indications for launching talks. joining us now, cnn political and global affairs analyst and axios reporter barak ravid. barak, always good to see you. i want to start with these talks that we're learning about. what do you think we can expect on monday and kind of set the scene with the dynamics as we go into these. >> good afternoon jessica. i think that the main. >> issue that. >> influenced the talks. >> over the last week. >> was the fact. >> that the. u.s. decided.
2:17 pm
>> to go and. >> speak directly with. >> hamas, and i think that. sort of like... >> you know, rock. >> the. >> boat.. of this. >> these, these negotiations were in sort of a stalemate. i think we still don't have a deal. we still don't have a breakthrough. but the fact that. >> the israelis. >> after something like 2 or 3 weeks, finally agreed to go to doha and to actually negotiate on extension of this deal and on a possible phase two of this deal is a major development. >> and so, if i understand you correctly, it seems like what you're saying is that that that the u.s. directly engaging with hamas might have shaken them, the israelis, a little bit more loose, a little bit, made them a little more apt to to restart this. >> no doubt. because i think that prime minister netanyahu realized that he lost control over the process. and the reason
2:18 pm
he lost control is because he didn't do anything. and when you don't do anything, other people do other things. and it took him time to realize it. because he thought that not doing anything about phase two of this deal will only allow him to resume the war, and he found out that donald trump actually wants to get the hostages back home. and for that, he's willing to talk directly to hamas. and that really rocked the boat for the israelis and for netanyahu, because he did not see it coming. you know, in one of the meetings last week, he told the heads of the security services in israel who warned him that this is going to happen. he said, i don't have a nanometer between me and donald trump. he figured after a few days that this is not exactly true yeah it is. >> it is a really fascinating development in all of this. and so these talks that are going to happen now, they will be obviously focused on phase two
2:19 pm
and what that might be, what that might look like with, as you mentioned, knowing that there are still hostages being held, that both the american government and also israel would want back. >> yes. and i think what the trump administration tried to convey to hamas is that, you know, it was sort of a message of help us help you, meaning hamas wants an end to the war or a long term truce. okay. the u.s. told hamas, if you release edan alexander, the the american hostage who is still alive, and the four americans who are dead and their bodies are held in gaza. if you give, give, give us alexander and the bodies, it will go a long way with donald trump. and he will then press netanyahu to agree to this long term truce, which will effectively end the war. and the question is, and i'm not sure if there's an answer yet, is whether hamas agreed to go down
2:20 pm
this path and, you know, to put its trust with donald trump. it wasn't the case a few days ago, but i don't know if anything has changed in the last 48 hours. >> mm-hmm. and and trump says that he is proposing a nuclear deal, but that iran's supreme leader today responded by calling the u.s. a bully state, saying trump wasn't interested in resolving issues. do you think moving more broadly to iran obviously here, that there is any interest from iran in actually making a deal.? >> at the moment, it doesn't seem to be the case. on the other hand, donald trump said that he sent a letter to iran's supreme leader. this letter still, i don't know, maybe it's stuck in the mail somewhere because the iranian foreign minister said that they didn't receive any letter from donald trump. and i think it will be interesting because i think there is a letter. the interesting thing is what exactly donald trump is
2:21 pm
proposing to the iranians. because if it's just okay, you dismantle all your nuclear program and that's it, then obviously the iranians will not take it, but if it's okay, you dismantle a nuclear program and i'm giving you one, two, three, four, five. maybe they'll be more receptive to start talking. the question is, if the iranians have trust in order to engage directly with the u.s., it doesn't seem to be the case at the moment, but it could change. >> well, and to that point, the kremlin confirmed this week russia has offered to participate in those talks between the u.s. and iran. do you do you see that as is an actual viable path?. >> i don't think so. but, you know, there are a lot of channels and a lot of countries that are trying to push for us iranian direct dialog. it's russia, it's qatar, it's saudi arabia, it's oman. but the
2:22 pm
problem is that iran tried to assassinate donald trump and donald trump assassinated qassem soleimani, the commander of the iranian revolutionary guard corps quds force. and that creates a lot of, you know, an abyss of mistrust between those two parties. trump sent this letter, which means that he's ready to engage anyway. but i'm not sure that for the iranians, it's the same. it's the same way. >> all right. we shall see. barak ravid, always good to see you. thanks so much. we appreciate it. thank you. still ahead, speaker johnson unveiling a bill to prevent a government shutdown. we'll talk about what's in it and what the president is saying about it. you're in the cnn. >> newsroom. >> have i got news for you is going strong so far, but we need new games. what do you got? >> how about balls or no balls? and then we show politicians and we're like, oh, did you fall in line or not? oh. >> what about.

>> tell me. >> it's not that you're spending in real time, lowers bills and helps you. find and cancel spooky subscriptions. >> sign me up. >> stay on track with your finances and download rocket money today. >> cnn presents. >> hbo's real time with bill maher. >> tonight at eight on cnn. >> house speaker mike johnson and republicans have a new spending bill that they hope will avoid a government shutdown. that could start on friday. the bill would fund federal spending through the end of september. it would also give republican leaders time to steer president trump's agenda through congress throughout the summer. however, democrats are blasting the stopgap funding bill, calling it a slush fund. cnn's julia benbrook is joining us now. julia, what more are we learning about this bill? >> well, house speaker mike johnson is outlining a stopgap measure known as a continuing resolution, that would keep the government funded until september 30th. and he's up against a fast approaching deadline with that potential government shutdown looming this next week, president donald trump has expressed support for the measure that johnson outlined. in fact, he is calling on republicans to rally around it, posting on his social media
2:28 pm
platform truth social earlier today saying, quote, the house and senate have put together, under the circumstances, a very good funding bill. all republicans should vote in parentheses. please, in all caps. yes. next week. but johnson leads with a very slim majority, and he's going to need the support of almost every republican member in the house. if he doesn't have any support from democrats. and here's what he had to say about the chances of this bill passing. >> we will pass it along party lines. but i think every democrat should vote for the cr. it is a fundamental responsibility. we have to fund the government in a clean cr with a few minor anomalies is not something that they should vote against. so we'll see what they do. >> now, as you heard there, johnson is describing this as a clean cr and noting that it does not include language that would enshrine certain trump priorities, such as doge cuts. but the democratic leader in the house, hakeem jeffries, has made it clear that he opposes this
2:29 pm
stopgap measure. and part of the argument against it is that democrats say that it does not include critical language. that would be included in a full year negotiated deal and would make it easier for their party to put a check on trump in court if needed and so, julia, what comes next in terms of when do you think we could potentially see a vote on this? >> obviously, they need to move somewhat quickly. congress doesn't always move fast, but a deadline certainly helps. >> a familiar story here of really pushing these funding deadlines up to the very last minute. we do expect johnson to bring this to the floor in the next few days. in the house. tuesday is when that is expected. that will put a lot of pressure on members of both parties in the senate, though, as that deadline is quickly approaching. and of course, none of them want to be blamed if there is a government shutdown. >> all right, julia benbrook, thank you so much for that reporting. new tonight,
2:30 pm
protesters detained during a demonstration at a tesla showroom in manhattan. the video shows police restraining protesters with zip ties and putting them on the ground. protesters chanting we need clean air, not another billionaire. and heigh heigh, elon musk has got to go. of course, tesla is owned by musk, who is the public face of trump's efforts to cut thousands of federal jobs. it's not clear how many people were detained or if they're facing charges now. demonstrators have gathered at more than 50 tesla showrooms across the united states last weekend to protest musk. the trump administration says it is pulling $400 million in grants and contracts from columbia university, citing what it calls a failure to address anti-semitism on campus. cnn's gloria pazmino is in new york with more on this. so, gloria, what does this mean going forward well. >> jessica, i. >> think the. >> overarching sentiment here on campus is that there's a lot of. >> uncertainty about what. >> these cuts are going to mean, not just to university operations, but everything else
2:31 pm
the university does like research, for example. so they don't have a complete understanding yet of how exactly the cuts are going to affect their programs. but particularly research leaders are saying they are concerned right now as they are preparing for the upcoming academic year and working out budgets. now this is all happening a year after columbia university became the epicenter of protests against the israel-hamas war. we saw several confrontations here in in new york on the campus of columbia university between protesters and local police, as well as university officials who were trying to remove students for several weeks in the lead up to graduation last year. now, we do have a statement from columbia university responding to these quotes, saying in part, we take columbia's legal obligations seriously and understand how serious the announcement is and are committed to combating
2:32 pm
anti-semitism and ensuring that the safety and well-being of our students, faculty of our students, faculty and staff. now, the trump administration has said it canceled a $400 million in federal grants for what they say is a failure to police and anti-semitism here on campus. the education secretary, linda mcmahon, said in a statement, quote, universities must comply with all federal anti-discrimination laws if they are going to receive federal funding for too long, columbia has abandoned that obligation to jewish students studying on its campus. now, the news of this federal funding cut has been welcomed by some groups here on columbia university campus, while others have said that it's going to send a chilling message about the freedom and the right to speech and to those students who have said that they should have a right to

begins. of course, the idea has been around for centuries. mentioned back in 1784 by benjamin franklin, but it was not widely adopted until much of europe started using it during world war i, the u.s. standardized the system in 1966, when congress passed the uniform time act, but the time change has plenty of critics, including elon musk and president donald trump, who vowed to get rid of it back in december, calling it inconvenient and costly to our nation. cnn's chief data analyst harry enten joins us now. this is a divisive one, harry. people have feelings about this. how do they feel about daylight saving time? >> i just find the entire. >> topic to be absolutely. >> enjoyable, hilarious. >> just everything. >> all in one. >> in part because it's not. >> really partisan, right? >> i mean. >> i've. >> done a podcast. >> on it. i've written. >> like four. >> articles on it. i think we've done two. segments in like four months on it. this is one of my. >> favorite topics. >> isn't it? one of yours? >> you know, i listen, i am intrigued by it. it reminds me about the veep. remember when
2:39 pm
jonah? yes. campaigns on this? yeah, yeah. >> yes. so, you know, why is it such a. >> divisive topic? >> why is it one in which folks are really sort of digging into it, this particular point? and i think we can look historically at. >> this, oppose. >> daylight saving time. i want you to look at the time trend here. it's one of the things that is just so unbelievable. it's moved so much over the last 25 years. you go back to 1999. 23% of americans oppose daylight saving time. look at the number now, 54%. that's a jump of more than 30 points in only 26 years. and more than that, what's so interesting is you get a majority of democrats, republicans, young people and old people all in opposition to this. so i think that is what is going on right now in the government, why we're partially seeing this movement is we've seen just such a clear shift from people being not really opposed to a 25, 26 years ago to now. all of a sudden, you see this 54% who are in opposition to the idea of daylight saving. >> time interesting. and what about most americans? do they
2:40 pm
really want to be like trying to change their clocks twice a year? although i will say with the phones it's easier. but you know, what i think about is like the oven and the microwave, you do still have to do that. at least i do. you still. >> have. >> to do it. >> yeah, yeah, i know about the microwave. sometimes i actually keep it the same throughout the entire year, so i never actually have to change. but then i'm like an hour ahead in the winter time. and, you know, i'm just so interested in sort of the google searches because there's just been so much interest in this generated over the last few years, and we can see this in the google searches by comparing the number in the 2020s compared to either the 2000 or the 20 tens. this decade, the google searches are up compared to the 2000. they're up. get this 37% compared to last decade. the google searches are up 18%. it's almost as if more people are talking about it. i like to think myself, jessica, that i am driving the interest in this topic, not just elon musk. the fact that i've written so many articles on it. and now, of course, we're doing the second segment in four months on it. >> right? well, i mean, it's you, it's you are at the heart of it. mary.
2:41 pm
>> yes. >> now, listen, the real crux of this seems to be do you stick to standard time or do you permanently move to daylight saving time? >> yeah, this is the problem, right. all right. so we have all those people who are opposed to the idea of changing the clocks, but how do you actually keep time then. and so it's interesting when you actually pose it as a three pronged question, given these choices for time, i prefer only daylight saving. look at this. it's only about a third at 35%. only standard time. again, just a little bit less at 30%. switch back and forth. now as we introduce these two other options. that comes in at 29%. so for all the people who are complaining, all the people who are saying, i want to move on when given three different options, they're split one third, one third, one third. and i think that's part of the reason why we've had so much difficulty in seeing any movement on this topic, because the bottom line is, one third of the country believes x, the other believes y, and the other believes z, and therefore we just kind of stick to what we
2:42 pm
already know. >> it's it's clear as mud, right? yes, exactly. and while people dislike changing the clocks, are they actually bothered by it. >> yeah. so this is like the fun thing. i know i'm bothered by it because, you know, you were mentioning that oven clock, but are the clocks moving ahead really a disruption to your life? this is one of my favorite questions because it kind of gets at the intensity of how people feel. right. 55% say no, their lives aren't really disruptive, compared to 41% who say yes. it disrupts them. but here's the thing i will note about it is, you see, i have a little star down here. only 13% of americans say it's a major disruption in their life. so despite the fact that, again, i'm so interested in this topic only, well, less than like only about a seventh of americans actually say it's a major disruption. i, of course, hate losing the hour of sleep. that's why i actually prefer standard time to daylight saving time. but i guess i'm part of one third with two thirds of the country feeling, you know, changing the clocks is fine. or actually, i just want to always be on daylight saving time. >> yeah, that's true. i think
2:43 pm
the sleep is what gets people. do. people change the clock though, as we were saying. i mean, i am genuinely curious about this. >> this i think was, you know, sometimes, jessica, i come into a segment, i'm going to go i know what the broad strokes of it are, but i don't really know where exactly i'm going with this. and i kind of put in keywords, and sometimes i get a little bit surprised at what i find. so here we go. type of alarm clock that you use amongst those who use one to help wake themselves up in the morning. look at this 76%. now their main one is the phone, compared to 18%. interestingly enough, nick, my producer, said that they in fact use a classic alarm clock that they got from their father. and so i'm part of the 76 for the phone. i think that's part of what's going on. people are less bothered because, simply put, they no longer have to change the clocks. i'll also note that another 6% use like a smart device. you know, perhaps maybe an alexa. i don't have an alexa. it's a little too complicated for me, but besides that, i do use the phone. i guess my oven clock, though. that's really the thing that i have to change. and i guess now i'm going to have to go home
2:44 pm
and change it. i think maybe you will as well. this is a good reminder for. >> you know, i will, i absolutely will. i don't like being off that, that that does bother me. i guess i'm a little i'm a little type a in that way. but you know, yeah, it's funny, i think two people used to worry about screwing up the time being late on that monday morning or that sunday morning with the smartphone. >> you don't know. you don't. you no longer have to worry. you no longer have to worry about that. and if anybody out there needs a reminder, you can just rewatch this segment. when i put it onto social media. >> just rewatch it again and again and again. harry enten. thank you so much. >> good to see you, jessica. >> still ahead, many canadians are mystified and also angry about the new punishing tariffs ordered by president trump. some of them say it has changed their view of america and americans forever. up next, our john king goes north of the border and gets an earful from canadians. >> united states of scandal. with jake tapper returns tomorrow at nine on cnn. >> thinking of updating my
