CBS News parent Paramount Global has agreed to pay $16 million to resolve an extraordinary lawsuit filed by President Donald Trump over a “60 Minutes” news report last fall.
The long-gestating and highly controversial settlement payment was announced by Paramount late Tuesday night.
Paramount said the $16 million sum “includes plaintiffs’ fees and costs,” and will not be paid to Trump directly, but instead will be allocated to Trump’s future presidential library — mirroring a settlement agreement that Disney’s ABC struck with Trump last December.
“The settlement does not include a statement of apology or regret,” Paramount specified.
The announcement also said that “in the future, ‘60 Minutes’ will release transcripts of interviews with eligible U.S. presidential candidates after such interviews have aired, subject to redactions as required for legal or national security concerns.”
CNN is butthurt.
Legal experts maintained that Trump’s suit was frivolous and that CBS was on solid ground to fight and win the case in court.

Sylvain Charlebois- How Ottawa gift-wrapped our dairy sector for Trump
Which brings us to Donald Trump. For him, gaining access to the Canadian dairy market is not about economic necessity—it’s about principle. It’s about cracking a closed, protected system that offends his transactional worldview. Fresh off forcing Canada to abandon its digital services tax, Trump may now see himself as the liberator of Canadians from an outdated system that serves a small, powerful minority.
When you’re flapping your elbows it’s funny how people tend to notice.
This is the fatal flaw of Bill C-202. In trying to shield supply management, Parliament has made it a bigger target.

Wall Street Journal- Trump Seeks to Remake the World
The outcomes of this competition are impossible to predict, but one thing is clear. Donald Trump is no shrinking violet, and as long as he sits in the Oval Office, the U.S. is unlikely to retreat from the world.
Alligator Alcatraz
Fresh new appeal for the “plane ticket home” option.
I don’t think anyone realizes how impressive Alligator Alcatraz is. The State of Florida built this 3,000 bed federal prison in eight days. The director tells me it could have been done in 72 hours were it not for some regulatory hold-ups. Now all the state needs is DOJ approval… pic.twitter.com/gOFuQkyn2Z

Elbows Up!
This is the one thing the 'Elbows Up' crowd never understood—and still doesn’t. We’re not in a trade war with the U.S.
There’s no war to be won.
For Trump, this is about a realignment of the global order, plain and simple—one centered entirely on American supremacy. https://t.co/cE1e9F7G4C

@kevinolearytv — This mess started with Trudeau, the idiot king, who rammed through Bill C-69, a policy so anti-development it basically banned pipelines and choked off energy revenue. Now, Carney inherits an economic wasteland and thinks taxing U.S. tech is the fix?
Now Is The Time At SDA When We Juxtapose!

Paul Viera: @mgeist tells WSJ it is “shocking” how Canadian officials — under former PM Trudeau and current PM Carney — dismissed the risks of irking the U.S. and face severe retaliation with a digital services tax.

Update;(h/t Orson).
The top-secret Defense Intelligence Agency (DIA) assessment that claimed Iran’s nuclear sites suffered only moderate damage likely relied on faulty information from deceitful Iranian sources, according to several former U.S. intelligence officers, one of whom described the document as so unreliable “you can wipe your ass with it.”

@Based_Jedi – Impressive that everyone was watching the B2s in Guam when the real attack came from a different direction entirely, and not in 14 days. And most importantly, no leaks.
@wretchardthecat – With the US strike on Fordow every narrative has to be reframed. Trump as Putin’s stooge, European presumptions, China’s expectations. All in the dumpster. What world are we in? Nobody knows.

As an aside, every purported photo and video circulating social media of the attack has so far been a fake (old video).
