RNC Elects Trump-Backed Joe Gruters As Chairman
Authored by Nathan Worcester via The Epoch Times,
The Republican National Committee (RNC) has formally chosen its outgoing treasurer, Florida state Sen. Joe Gruters, as its new leader.
He was elected on Aug. 22 at the RNC's summer meeting in Atlanta.
“The midterms are ahead, where we must expand our current majority in the House and Senate,” Gruters said after his election.
Jennifer Rich was also elected treasurer of the RNC, replacing Gruters.
President Donald Trump, now the dominant influence on national GOP leadership, endorsed the Republican from Sarasota on Truth Social on Aug. 1. He described Gruters as a “MAGA warrior” and someone “who has been with us from the very beginning.”
Gruters co-chaired Trump's 2016 campaign in the Sunshine State, where he defeated former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton after Republican presidential candidates lost there in both 2008 and 2012. His co-chair, Susie Wiles, is now the White House chi...

Do you have a high street full of gambling shops breeding poverty and addiction? I have a way to fight back | Dawn Butler (The Guardian)
|
|
Communities feel powerless because the law gives betting firms the upper hand. But a simple change could transfer power to the people• Dawn Butler is MP for Brent EastWalking down their local high streets, people in Britain are increasingly unlikely to come across a local butcher, baker or grocery shop, and more likely to find betting shops, casinos, adult gaming centres (AGC) and so-called bingo venues, where traditional bingo is muscled out by money-sapping slot machines. These establishments are taking over our town centres at an alarming rate. From talking to my constituents in Brent, west London, and residents across the capital, I know that people have had enough.That's why this summer I have launched a campaign for urgent reform of our gambling laws. Ministers must give local authorities and people greater power to tackle this issue and reclaim our high streets. Currently, billionaire-owned overseas corporations have too much power, and local people have none. That needs to change. And it's tim...

Yellowstone, Top Gun, Chalamet: what will the Paramount-Skydance merger mean for film and TV? (The Guardian)
|
|
The controversial $8bn deal was finalized this week and while details are scarce, the future is set to look very different for one of the biggest Hollywood studiosThe merger between Paramount and Skydance has finally been completed, with various roadblocks (including Stephen Colbert, apparently, as well as the related 60 Minutes settlement/bribery) cleared from the path of a new entity called Paramount, A Skydance Corporation.It's an appropriately franchise-y moniker for a merger between a major Hollywood studio and a company that made its bones as a constant financer of some of its biggest movie series. This ends (for now) years of speculation over what might be done with Paramount, a global conglomerate that was nonetheless considered on less sure footing than its fellow remaining big five studios, Disney, Sony, Universal and Warner Bros. (Well, maybe not the recently embattled Warner Bros, though they seem to have gotten a major reprieve with their killer 2025 slate) Skydance honcho David Ellison is t...
