_WHAT’S HAPPENING_

Paramount Global is preparing to settle a $20 billion lawsuit brought by President Trump over a 60 Minutes interview with Kamala Harris as it seeks final approval for an $8 billion merger with Skydance Media. The very interview Trump is suing over just got nominated for an Emmy.

But the deal is more important than the settlement: David Ellison, close Trump ally Larry Ellison’s son, is looking to buy Paramount, one of the largest media conglomerates in the country.

The Federal Communications Commission (FCC), led by Trump-appointed Chairman Brendan Carr, is reviewing the merger. If approved, it would shift control of CBS, Paramount Pictures, and other major assets into MAGA hands.

Included in Pres. Trump’s settlement over the edited and defrauding version of Kamala’s interview, which misled much of America, should be a requirement to show the uncut and stumbly, bumbly version on ALL news stations. CNN, MSDNC and all 3 of the leftist major networks.

Oh yea, just imagine a movie about fencing off whole neighborhoods where loony activist judges live, and releasing all the illegal gang members that those judges want to stay in the US inside those fenced off neighborhoods to await their judicial procedures (Sometimes for Years). I think it would be good entertainment to watch the actors portraying those judges doge their neighbors questions about Why ! I'm just saying: I'd love to watch it !

If Hollywood goes MAGA, that could have an impact on how long the "vibe shift" lasts. The way things are going right now is a slippery slope and makes the shift tenuous. For all the left's recognition that they are out of touch with the public, they have doubled down trying to ruin the President's agenda. Logic tells you that work if what POTUS is doing continues to confound the public. I hope he stays the course; people will eventually see his agenda is working. Prices are down and he's winning more than he's losing. God speed, Mr. President!

HOORAY FOR THE HOLLYWOOD TAKEOVER! It will be so refreshing to be able to watch at least one major media news cast that won't cause nightmares. Let us hope and pray for CBS to become un-WOKE and smell the roses. I have gone exclusively to online news that I trust, after Spectrum took NewsNation away from me - how dare they! I particularly like Upward News, beginning each AM with their reporting, able to read the wheres and whyfores in depth, as I assess what's really happening in this ever-changing world.

I was wondering what, if Anything, could turn MSM away from unabashed bias and LYING. Just making CBS tell the unvarnished TRUTH would be a Huge step towards that! That their viewership numbers reflected that, would put unbearable onus on the remainder of outlets!

Having a honest and unbiased Hollywood would be a great step in the right direction to help move those influenced in a more neutral direction and less biased by their current propaganda.
