4. Why would a U.S. private equity firm (Affinity Partners) owned by a U.S. citizen (Jared Kushner) need to waive governance rights to avoid review by the Committee on FOREIGN INVESTMENT in the U.S.?

Because Paramount knows that Kushner's company is simply a vehicle for foreign influence.

The Ellison/Kushner/UAE hostile bid for Warner Brothers doesn’t need to win if it forces sale of WB’s CNN *before* 2026 primaries.

RFK Jr has suggested he wants to end access to mifeprostone; it's the MAHA war on women

>100 studies have examined the effectiveness/safety of the abortion pills mifepristone & misoprostol. "All conclude that the pills are a safe method for terminating a pregnancy" (www.nytimes.com/interactive/...)
The best reading of this article: Trump is going to use FDA to restrict medication abortion, but he wants to wait until after the midterms so the Republicans don't experience blowback. But that just makes the midterms more important. www.bloomberg.com/news/article...

Republicans again trying to interfere in our most personal decisions.
Tucked inside the Republican bill for health care subsidies, a clause that would restrict the money from being used for abortion (with exception for rape, incest or life of the mother) or for "any sex trait modification procedure or service."

Republicans candidate for Massachusetts governor donated $100,000 to harass our neighbors, pollute our environment, make it harder to access healthcare, destroy public health infrastructure and interfere with our reproductive care.

No, thank you.
It's very funny to watch Mike Minogue, who donated money to Donald Trump and JD Vance, try to avoid saying he supports Trump ... before finally admitting he still supports Trump. Kudos to Sharman Sacchetti for not letting Minogue wriggle out of that one.

Jared Kushner's involvement was "not mentioned in Paramount's press release on Monday morning about its $108 billion bid, nor were participating sovereign wealth funds from Saudi Arabia, Abu Dhabi and Qatar."

The hepatitis B vaccine is essentially a vaccine against cancer.

The Trump Administration wants babies to get cancer.
Hepatitis B is a serious liver infection that, for most people, lasts less than six months. But for some, especially infants and children, it can become a long-lasting problem that can lead to liver failure, liver cancer and scarring called cirrhosis.

If you're in the White House press corps, still showing up to your job every day and not saying anything as Trump attacks your colleagues -- almost always women, I'd add -- then this is on you as well.
Reporter: “Are you committed to releasing the full video?”

Trump: “Didn't I just tell you that?”

Reporter: “You said that it was up to Sec. Hegseth.”

Trump: “You are the most obnoxious reporter in the whole place…You are an obnoxious, actually a terrible reporter.”

ICE stormed a residence hall at Augsburg University, detained an undergrad, and aimed rifles at students and staff then admitted they had no warrant to be on campus.

This is state violence. This is terror. And this is exactly what Trump’s America unleashes on our communities.
