Breitbart: Donald Trump: '4 Different Groups' Are in the Running to Buy China's TikTok
President Trump is negotiating with four potential buyers for TikTok's U.S. division, aiming for a deal soon. He indicated flexibility on the deadline for the sale, previously set for January 19, and emphasized the need for the app to be free from Chinese ownership due to national security concerns.
Lawmakers from both parties have raised alarms about TikTok, citing risks associated with its parent company, ByteDance, and its ties to the Chinese Communist Party. Trump has previously issued an executive order to delay enforcement of a ban on the app while pursuing a sale.

Syria's interim government has signed a significant agreement with the Kurdish-led Syrian Democratic Forces, merging their forces into the Syrian army and establishing a ceasefire. This deal aims to consolidate government control over the northeast, including border crossings and oil fields, while granting Kurds constitutional rights.
The agreement comes amid escalating violence, with recent clashes resulting in over 1,100 deaths, including many civilians. The government is under pressure to address the violence and ensure accountability for attacks on minority communities. The situation has drawn attention from Western governments regarding the potential lifting of economic sanctions on Syria.
Breitbart: DOGE Says Children Received $312M in Loans During COVID Pandemic
The Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) revealed that nearly 5,600 loans totaling $312 million were granted to borrowers aged 11 or younger during the COVID-19 pandemic. The loans were issued by the Small Business Administration (SBA) in 2020 and 2021, raising concerns about their legitimacy.
Additionally, DOGE reported that 3,095 loans worth $333 million were issued to borrowers over 115 years old, including one individual claimed to be 157. The agency plans to work with the SBA to address these issues as part of its efforts to combat fraud in federal spending.
Fox News: Trump-backed plan to avert shutdown heads for House vote
A government funding plan supported by President Trump is set for a House vote, following approval from the House Rules Committee. The bill, a continuing resolution, aims to maintain fiscal 2024 funding levels until October 2026, with Republicans expected to support it largely on their own.
Despite internal GOP dissent, including opposition from Rep. Thomas Massie, the bill includes an $8 billion increase in defense spending while cutting non-defense spending by $13 billion. The legislation also eliminates earmarks, allowing Republican leaders to claim a victory in preventing significant government spending increases.
Breitbart: Eagles 'Enthusiastically' Accept Invitation to the White House
The Philadelphia Eagles have "enthusiastically accepted" President Trump's invitation to celebrate their Super Bowl championship at the White House, according to reports. A team spokesperson confirmed they are working on scheduling the visit, following previous rumors of a rejection that were unfounded.
The Eagles' acceptance marks a shift from 2018, when the White House rescinded an invitation due to controversy over player protests. Despite owner Jeffrey Lurie's Democratic donations and criticism of Trump, the team's willingness to visit may encourage other championship teams to follow suit.

Breitbart: China and Canada Are Having Their Own Trade War
China has imposed tariffs on over $2.6 billion worth of Canadian goods in response to Canada's increased tariffs on Chinese steel, aluminum, and electric vehicles. This trade conflict escalated after Canada accused China of dumping subsidized products that threaten Western industries, particularly in the EV market.
The retaliatory tariffs, effective March 20, include 100% on canola oil and peas, key Canadian exports. Analysts suggest China's response serves as a warning to Canada about aligning too closely with U.S. trade policies, with potential motives tied to upcoming Canadian elections.

GB News: Shipwreck discovered after 500 years at the bottom of the ocean may radically change what is known about maritime history
A 15th-century shipwreck near Stockholm, designated "Wreck 5," is believed to be the oldest known carvel-built ship in the Nordic region. This discovery offers insights into medieval naval technology and the transition from traditional clinker-built vessels to carvel construction, which allowed for larger, more stable hulls.
The ship, approximately 35 meters long, has been dated to the 1480s through dendrochronological analysis. It is part of a group of five shipwrecks in Landfjärden, an area of interest for researchers since the 1800s. A digital model of the wreck has been created for further study.
