Fox News: Trump executive order expected to block federal money for schools, universities with COVID vaccine mandates
President Trump plans to sign an executive order prohibiting federal funding for schools with COVID-19 vaccine mandates. The order will direct the Department of Health and Human Services and the Secretary of Education to create compliance guidelines and a system to cut funding for non-compliant educational entities.

Fox News: Top Trump official teases 2026 bid for California governor if Harris jumps in race
Richard Grenell, a prominent aide to Donald Trump, hinted at a potential gubernatorial run in California if Kamala Harris decides to enter the race. He believes Harris carries significant political baggage that could open the door for a Republican victory in a state that has not elected a Republican statewide since 2006.
The Democratic field for the 2026 gubernatorial race is crowded, with several candidates already in the mix. Harris's entry could consolidate support among Democrats, while Grenell and other Republicans, including Sheriff Chad Bianco, are gearing up for a competitive race.
Fox News: White House blocks Associated Press from Oval Office, Air Force One over 'dishonest' Gulf of America reporting
The White House has restricted access for the Associated Press to the Oval Office and Air Force One due to the news organization's refusal to rename the Gulf of Mexico to the Gulf of America, as directed by President Trump. White House officials claim this decision reflects the AP's commitment to misinformation.
AP executives argue that the White House's actions violate First Amendment rights, asserting that the government cannot retaliate against the press for its reporting. Despite the restrictions, AP journalists will maintain their credentials for the White House complex.
Times Of Israel: Iran bars Lebanese planes from bringing back stranded citizens after Israeli ‘threat’
Iran has barred Lebanese planes from repatriating citizens stranded in Iran after Lebanon blocked an Iranian flight from landing in Beirut. This action follows accusations from Israel that Iran was using civilian flights to smuggle funds to Hezbollah, leading to heightened tensions.
Iran's ambassador stated that Lebanese flights would only be permitted if Iranian flights were allowed to land in Beirut. Protests erupted in Lebanon, with Hezbollah supporters blocking airport roads in response to the government's decision. Lebanese authorities are working to resolve the situation and facilitate the return of stranded citizens.

Times Of Israel: IAEA chief sees time running out to revive Iran nuclear deal
Time is running out for a nuclear accord with Iran, as the country accelerates uranium enrichment to near weapons-grade levels, according to IAEA chief Rafael Grossi. He emphasized the urgency for countries to refocus on Iran's nuclear activities, which have increased since the U.S. withdrew from the 2015 agreement.
The lack of a dedicated U.S. envoy on Iran complicates diplomatic efforts, leaving European allies uncertain on how to proceed. The IAEA has called for Iran to improve cooperation and is awaiting a comprehensive report to pressure Iran into negotiations.
The Telegraph: So much for the art of the deal. Trump’s Putin call threatens disaster for Western security
Donald Trump’s recent phone call with Vladimir Putin raises concerns about his approach to negotiations regarding Ukraine. Critics argue that Trump offered concessions without prior conditions, sidelining Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky and undermining Ukraine's position in potential talks.
This strategy could weaken NATO's collective security and embolden Russia, as Trump's actions suggest a withdrawal of American guarantees. The implications for European defense and the balance of power are significant, with potential consequences for Ukraine's sovereignty and the stability of the region.

GB News: How Reeves could go after YOUR ISA as Chancellor scrambles to raise cash after fiscal headroom ‘vanishes’
Chancellor Rachel Reeves is under pressure to raise taxes and cut spending after her budget failed to stimulate growth, resulting in a minimal 0.1% economic increase. Critics argue her proposed tax hikes, particularly on ISAs, could deter investment and disproportionately affect older individuals.
Reeves' plans include taxing ISA earnings, which could unlock £300 billion currently tied up in these accounts. However, this move has drawn criticism for potentially harming pensioners and middle-class families while raising minimal revenue. The government maintains that all savings policies are under review.

Le Monde: 'American platforms were supposed to kill French cinema. They are helping to save it'
French cinema is thriving, with attendance rising between 2023 and 2024, despite a decline in Hollywood output. Domestic productions and platforms like Netflix, which has invested significantly in French films, have contributed to this success, contrasting with the US cinema landscape.
Historically, fears about television harming cinema were unfounded in France, where regulations helped TV become a benefactor rather than a threat. Now, major streaming services are adapting to French rules, with Disney signing a deal to finance numerous films while shortening the theatrical-to-streaming window.

Forbes: NASA’s Webb Telescope To Study Asteroid 2024 YR4 As Impact Risk Rises
NASA will utilize the James Webb Space Telescope to gather vital data on asteroid 2024 YR4, which has a 2.3% chance of impacting Earth on December 22, 2032. The telescope will measure the asteroid's heat, size, and density, providing critical information to assess its potential threat.
2024 YR4, estimated to be between 130 and 300 feet in diameter, is currently the top object on NASA's Sentry list for potential Earth impacts. Observations are planned for March and May, as the asteroid will soon become too faint for ground-based telescopes. Accurate tracking is essential given its trajectory and the potential for a future collision.
