The head of Russia Today has admitted to cracks appearing in Vladimir Putin’s empire

Speaking on The Evening program, Margarita Simonyan has admitted that Russia’s elite are concerned about the outcomes of the Ukraine war.

“God knows we didn’t want this…

Everyone with no exception will be held accountable. All of us will be considered guilty.”

She explained they’re concerned about the possibility of being tried for war crimes, and that if Russia lose, there’s no win for anyone who currently supports Putin.

“I am amazed by our people—and I unfortunately know many of them—including those in very high circles, who are afraid of this and are scared to call things by their proper names because of what people over there may think.”

“We could spit on what they think over there! People who are afraid of the Hague—listen, you should be afraid to lose, to be humiliated and be afraid to betray your people. Let me tell you that if we manage to lose, the Hague—whether real or hypothetical—will come even for a street cleaner who is sweeping the cobblestones behind the Kremlin.”

Simonyan also claimed Russian forces will be subject to future war crimes trial and ‘catastrophe’ if it loses the war against Ukraine.

Fed faces critical leadership transition as Trump nominates new chair amid economic uncertainty and potential rate cut discussions.

The U.S. Federal Reserve is entering a critical period as it prepares for President Donald Trump’s upcoming nominee to lead the central bank. Markets are closely watching how the Fed will navigate this leadership transition amid ongoing economic uncertainty.

The Fed’s two-day meeting could result in a modest quarter-percentage-point rate cut. However, future policy decisions will hinge on key economic projections and inflation trends, leaving analysts debating how much room the central bank really has to maneuver.

Trump is pushing for lower interest rates to boost the housing market before the midterms, but this could complicate the next Fed chair’s path. Data delays from the recent government shutdown may also affect the Fed’s decision-making this week, adding another layer of uncertainty.

Paramount’s $108.4B bid for Warner Bros reshapes media landscape, likely facing antitrust hurdles amid board’s Netflix preference.

Paramount has launched a staggering $108.4 billion hostile bid to acquire Warner Bros Discovery, shaking up the media landscape. The proposal, supported by Jared Kushner’s investment firm and Middle Eastern funds, offers $18 billion more in cash than Netflix’s recent $72 billion deal for the same assets.

Warner Bros’ board is currently reviewing the Paramount offer but continues to recommend the Netflix deal. Analysts warn that a merger of this scale could face intense antitrust scrutiny, potentially delaying or even blocking the deal.

Paramount argues that its acquisition would boost competition and provide stronger support for the creative community, promising a new chapter in Hollywood consolidation.
