Some politicians and analysts commended the Mexican leader’s measured public tone and apparent ability to blunt Trump’s charge after she reached an agreement with the US president to pause tariffs for a month as Mexico sends 10,000 troops to the border to stop the flow of drugs and migrants.

“Sheinbaum, upon the announcement of the tariffs, kept a very measured tone,” Mexican political scientist Denise Dresser said on Monday in a live event on X held by the Center for Strategic and International Studies, a think tank in Washington. Her ability to rally to the defense of the North American free trade pact, which she once campaigned against as a student activist, also may have helped calm fears that she would fail to handle Trump as well as her mentor Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador.

He filed an appeal to a state court, hoping to overturn a lower court ruling that set the sentencing for January 10, just days before Trump's inauguration. Trump's legal team argues that a pre-inauguration sentencing would violate presidential immunity and needs to be halted. The case stems from a $130,000 payment made by Trump's former lawyer to adult film actress Stormy Daniels to prevent her from disclosing an alleged sexual encounter with Trump before the 2016 election.

Trudeau warns of higher prices for American consumers if Trump imposes tariffs on CanadaCanadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau warned that American consumers will face higher prices on various goods if President Donald Trump carries out his threat to impose 25% tariffs on Canadian products.
