A proposed $110 billion merger of Paramount Global and Warner Bros. Discovery could result in 40,000 jobs and provide a massive “boost to the industry.” “Paramount-Warners’ expansion of production to 30 films a year would provide a boost to the industry worth billions of dollars and would counteract the impact of declining entertainment spending elsewhere,” a report from the California Policy Center stated. “This deal would create a new Hollywood mega-studio with some $69 billion in annual revenue,” the report added. Combining Paramount Global and Warner Bros. Discovery would mean two major Hollywood film studios — Paramount Pictures and Warner Bros. —…

Thursday on MS NOW’s “Chris Jansing Reports,” Rep. Jason Crow (D-CO) claimed President Donald Trump had no strategy for his summit with Chinese President Xi Jinping. Crow said, “Well, I read it as everyone should read it, and that is he thinks he’s in the power position here.

President Donald Trump has been told by Iran that only the United States and China have the equipment to remove the “nuclear dust” from nuclear sites struck in Operation Midnight Hammer last Summer. Trump’s comments came to reporters aboard Air Force One during the flight to the United States following his China trip this week. “[Iran] said that they can’t remove it because they don’t have the technology to remove it,” Trump told reporters. “They don’t have the type of tractors… They told me directly, they said the only one that can remove it is China or the U.S., we’re…

On Friday’s broadcast of C-SPAN’s “Ceasefire,” Rep. Ami Bera (D-CA) said that he opposes a suspension of the federal gas tax, arguing that “we have a higher gas tax in California, and we can do some stuff in California to try to reduce the burden on Californians.

President Donald Trump is taking up another strategy to pass his signature SAVE America Act: attaching it to other must-pass bipartisan legislation on housing and government surveillance powers. If combined, the SAVE America Act — which he has called the “No. 1 priority” to pass ahead of the midterms — would almost certainly undermine the broader bills’ chances of getting through Congress. To the president, it may be a risk worth taking. “We cannot, as a Country, put up with this any longer!!!” he wrote on Truth Social Saturday. “Voter I.D., and Proof of Citizenship, must be approved, NOW. Crooked…

Russia and China are moving, slowly but unmistakably, toward a structural alliance that is reshaping the global balance of power. But the two sides are progressing through this transformation at different speeds. Moscow has largely accepted the logic of deep strategic interdependence. Beijing, by contrast, still behaves as though it can preserve a carefully managed partnership in which China remains the senior partner while minimizing its own obligations.That model is reaching its limits. For years, the dominant narrative in Western policy circles has been that Russia has become the junior partner in an unequal relationship. Brussels think tanks, Washington analysts…

Friday on CNN’s “News Central,” Rep. Adam Smith (D-WA) said the Trump administration was treating Cuba “like a country that we can crush and take over,” which he said was contrary to international law. Co-host Boris Sanchez said, “You’ve been critical of the U.S. policy on Cuba in this administration. And I do want to ask you about this CBS report that the DOJ is moving to indict Raul Castro in connection to the deadly shooting of unarmed planes operated by a humanitarian group in 1996. There were four men that were killed, three Americans, citizens, international investigators, a commission,…
