David Ellison reportedly told Trump he’d make “sweeping changes” to CNN if Paramount’s takeover of Warner Bros. gets approved.
Meanwhile, Jared Kushner and three Middle East countries are backing the bid — while Kushner advises Trump on foreign policy.

Mark Carney built a reputation on linking economic instability with climate inaction. Now he’s made a deal with the very industries driving the crisis.
This isn't Canadian leadership, it’s cowardice disguised as pragmatism.

Thank you Zohran Mamdani! And you don’t officially become mayor until next month; getting excited about your administration
New York City went 12 days without a murder in November / December. That's tied for the longest stretch in history, according to the NYPD. As someone who was here when there were 6+ murders per day in this town, it continues to amaze me how safe the place is.

This kind of thing is less fashionable than it used to be, but really worth looking into whether people saying an enormous amount of data center expansion will actually be good for climate and affordability have financial ties to people with a direct financial interest in data center expansion

Before the midterms of 1866, President Andrew Johnson called his congressional opponents traitors and said they should be hanged.
Voters were so profoundly moved by his words... that they gave his opponents a supermajority in Congress, and the nation got the Fourteenth Amendment.
