De Niro’s Blunt Warning Oscar-winning actor Robert De Niro has once again taken aim at President Donald Trump, warning that he believes Trump “will never leave” office unless Americans take action. Speaking on MS NOW ahead of the State of the Union address, De Niro said voters must “make him leave,” accusing the president of making alarming remarks about nationalizing elections. The longtime Trump critic also appeared at a counter-event called “State of the Swamp” at the National Press Club, where he told attendees he felt “betrayed” by the direction of the country. De Niro described the current political climate…

A major new review suggests that many reported side effects of statin medications may not actually be caused by the drugs themselves. Researchers say this finding could reassure patients and encourage wider use of these heart-protective medications. Statin side effect findings show that perceived issues, such as muscle pain or fatigue, often occur at similar rates in people taking a placebo. This means that concerns about side effects may sometimes stem from other factors rather than the medication. The review analyzed data from hundreds of clinical trials involving thousands of patients. Researchers compared reported side effects in statin users versus…
Aston Martin will cut up to 20% of its workforce to save about £40m. The plan could affect around 500 employees. The luxury carmaker confirmed the move after reporting pre-tax losses of £363.9m for 2025. Losses had reached £289.1m the previous year. Weak demand and higher US tariffs hit trading. The company had already reduced 170 roles at the start of 2025. It said the new cuts form part of a wider restructuring. The group aims to become leaner and better prepared for future plans. Chief executive Adrian Hallmark said the job losses alone would not complete the “rightsizing” process.…
A Renewed Debate on Deterrence President Emmanuel Macron is expected to outline how France could contribute more directly to Europe’s nuclear deterrence in a major speech on Monday. Delivering his address from the Île Longue peninsula — home to France’s four nuclear-powered ballistic missile submarines — Macron will revisit an idea he first floated in 2020: opening up elements of France’s nuclear doctrine to closer cooperation with European partners. At the time, his proposal to involve interested European nations in nuclear exercises drew limited response. Today, however, shifting global tensions have given the concept fresh relevance. Shifting Geopolitics, Growing Interest…
Paramount Skydance has increased its bid to acquire Warner Bros Discovery and aims to push Netflix out of the takeover race. The improved offer could determine who controls one of Hollywood’s biggest media companies. Warner Bros said Paramount agreed to raise its offer by one dollar per share. The board said the proposal could reasonably lead to a superior deal. Warner Bros will hold further talks before deciding whether to abandon the deal it signed with Netflix in December. Netflix has four days to submit a counter-offer and did not comment immediately. Netflix Stays Cautious and Avoids Bidding War In…
UN Submission Sparks Fresh Tensions A new maritime filing by Iraq to the United Nations has reignited a sensitive sea border dispute with Kuwait, drawing sharp reactions across the Gulf. Baghdad submitted updated coordinates and a map outlining its claimed boundaries, a move Kuwait says overlaps with waters it considers sovereign territory, including the Fasht al-Qaid and Fasht al-Aij shoals. The disagreement highlights the strategic weight of northern Gulf waterways, where shipping lanes and offshore resources make precise borders especially significant. Regional Backing for Kuwait Several Gulf nations quickly voiced support for Kuwait’s stance. Saudi Arabia, United Arab Emirates, Qatar,…
US President Donald Trump has introduced a new global tariff set at ten percent. The tariff took effect after the Supreme Court blocked many of his earlier import taxes on Friday. Trump signed an executive order just hours after the ruling to impose the levy from 24 February. He later threatened to raise the tariff to fifteen percent but has not issued an official directive to increase the rate. The White House has not confirmed whether the higher rate will take effect. Emergency Powers and Rising Business Uncertainty The administration applies the levy under Section 122 of the 1974 Trade…
Unlicensed gambling companies could lose the right to sponsor Premier League clubs under new government plans. Ministers launched a consultation after a series of controversies and regulatory concerns. Several top-flight teams, including Everton, Fulham and Wolverhampton Wanderers, currently display logos of online casinos or bookmakers without British licences. Clubs have already agreed to remove all front-of-shirt gambling sponsors from next season. The voluntary ban will not cover shirt sleeves or other partnerships. The proposed measure would close that gap. It would block unlicensed operators from any commercial deals with clubs. Ministers warned that some of these firms follow weak regulatory…
Supreme Court Ruling Throws Deal Into Doubt European Parliament negotiators have put the brakes on the EU-US trade agreement after fresh uncertainty erupted in Washington. The move follows a ruling by the Supreme Court of the United States that found some tariffs imposed in 2025 were illegal. In response, President Donald Trump announced new 15% duties on imports, further muddying the waters around the deal. German MEP Bernd Lange, who chairs the Parliament’s trade committee, said the legal foundation of the agreement had “totally changed,” arguing that the introduction of new tariffs created an entirely different framework from the one…
