0:00.0 | Today is Friday, March 7th. We'll tell you about President Trump's turnaround on his own tariffs |

0:22.5 | Welcome, welcome to The Newsworthy. All the day's news in around 10 minutes. Fast, fair, fun, |

1:28.5 | And in return, Shinebaum seems to be holding off on retaliating against the U.S., which Mexico |
1:33.1 | was planning to do this weekend. With Canadian Prime Minister, Justin Trudeau, things are different. |
1:38.6 | He's called the tariffs dumb, and Trump's new Treasury Secretary called Trudeau a numbskull for trying |
1:43.4 | to talk tough. A call between Trump and Trudeau earlier this week was, called Trudeau a numskull for trying to talk tough. |
1:44.5 | A call between Trump and Trudeau earlier this week was, as Trudeau put it, colorful. |
