This is exactly as expected. Larry Ellison now controls TikTok while his son David Ellison now controls Paramount/Skydance which is CBS. To solidify the objective of TikTok, new algorithms will be implemented, while to solidify the objective of CBS, Bari Weiss is hired as Editor-in-Chief of news. [Paramount Announcement]

The Trump administration assisted both the purchase of TikTok by Larry Ellison, and the acquisition of Paramount by David Ellison. CBS settled with President Trump for $16 million. Paramount then purchases/acquires Bari Weiss online site The Free Press and moves Weiss to editor of CBS news, while President Trump triggers a tariff against Hollywood production movies not made in the USA.

L Ellison (Oracle, TikTok), Musk (X, SpaceX), Thiel (Palantir), Sacks (Crypto), Karp (Palantir) and D Ellison (CBS) are all well positioned to fundamentally change the way information is processed for public consumption. CNN (Disney) is likely to be the final piece of the puzzle to be assembled.

David Ellison, Chairman and CEO of Paramount, a Skydance Corporation, said: “We are thrilled to welcome Bari and The Free Press to Paramount and CBS News. Bari is a proven champion of independent, principled journalism, and I am confident her entrepreneurial drive and editorial vision will invigorate CBS News. This move is part of Paramount’s bigger vision to modernize content and the way it connects – directly and passionately – to audiences around the world.” (LINK)

(VIA NEW YORK TIMES) – […] In a move that is expected to shake up the broadcast news landscape, CBS’s owner, Paramount, said on Monday that it was buying The Free Press, an upstart digital news site founded just four years ago, and appointing Ms. Weiss, one of its founders, as the editor in chief of CBS News.

The purchase price was roughly $150 million in cash and Paramount stock, according to two people familiar with the terms who spoke on the condition of anonymity. The total amount will be paid out over time, and it may fluctuate depending on the price of Paramount’s stock.

The acquisition puts one of the country’s most traditional news institutions — the former home of Edward R. Murrow and Walter Cronkite — under the editorial guidance of a journalist who rose to fame in part by critiquing old-line media institutions that she deemed timid and untrustworthy. Ms. Weiss is also a stalwart champion of Israel, and her site frequently lambastes the perceived excesses of the so-called woke left.

Ms. Weiss, 41, has never run a TV network, and in her role will have influence over hundreds of producers, anchors and reporters around the world. She will report to David Ellison, Paramount’s chief executive, and work alongside Tom Cibrowski, the president of CBS News. (read more)

Sunday Talks – PIAB Chairman Devin Nunes Outlines Expectations for Expanded James Comey Charges

Posted originally on CTH on October 5, 2025 | Sundance

Former House Intelligence Committee Chairman, and current chair of the President’s Intelligence Advisory Board, Devin Nunes, appears on Fox News with Maria Bartiromo to discuss the upcoming court appearance of former FBI Director James Comey.

Within the interview, Mr. Nunes outlines both how James Comey could be indicted for additional issues related to an ongoing conspiracy case, and also the reason why Comey will never be indicted for additional conspiracy charges.

The core of the disconnect, within the above paragraph, revolves around the central corrupt issue that James Comey conducted – the use of his office to conduct political surveillance.

In August 2016, the Obama administration, specifically the FBI, were concerned about the potential for discovery of their spying operation. In August 2022, the same FBI conducted a raid on Mar-a-Lago to ensure President Trump did not possess evidence of their spying operation. However, this motive must be avoided by those who are deciding what documentary trail they should be searching; so, they are not looking for it. WATCH:

The PIAB is looking at the Obama, Brennan and Comey motive through the wrong prism. The PIAB cannot look toward the correct prism, because the PIAB supports the national security justification for the process that permits FBI spying operations. The PIAB supports NSA metadata collection, as does the entire DC system.

PIAB members are: Devin Nunes, Chair; Scott Glabe, Amaryllis Fox Kennedy, Brad Robert Wenstrup, Wayne Berman, Reince Priebus, Robert O’Brien, Joshua Lobel, Sander R. Gerber, Katie Miller, Jeremy Katz and Thomas Ollis Hicks, Jr.

How can James Comey be indicted for a conspiracy, when the people responsible for indicting him can never reveal the core issue behind the system James Comey weaponized?

From 2012 through April 2016, the Obama administration was spying on its political opposition, using the FBI to conduct surveillance through their access to the NSA database.

In April 2016, NSA Admiral Mike Rogers was alerted by the NSA compliance officer who noted the uptick in database access activity by the FBI searching the Republican Primary Candidate field.

Post April 2016, the Obama administration had a problem. Enter FBI operation “Crossfire Hurricane,” July 2016, in an effort to remove the political risk.

October 2016, the FBI rushes a FISA application through the FISC, circumventing the missing ‘Woods File’, with the Chris Steele dossier as evidence.

October 2016, NSA Director Rogers sends the first official notification of the FBI using the NSA database to the oversight body, the FISA Court.

December 2016, worried about Trump now discovering the NSA database spying, the Obama administration wraps the Clinton smear into official policy, blaming the Russians and validating Crossfire Hurricane.

May 2017, needing to extend the coverup of the FBI activity, special counsel Robert Mueller then takes over Crossfire Hurricane. All FBI evidence and personnel transfers to Mueller.

April 2019, Robert Mueller operation wraps up, prior activity coverup shifts to Impeachment process.

July 2019, John Durham kicks in extending DOJ/FBI control through 2020 election.

Fall 2020, mail-in ballots triggered to facilitate 2020 election outcome.

January 2021, FBI triggers Operation Arctic Frost, targeting Trump supporters and 2020 election researchers. FBI again using NSA database search queries to identify targeting.

March 2021, FBI Arctic Frost results fed to J6 Committee and DHS. TSA trigger “Quiet Skies” targeting via results from Arctic Frost.

It’s one long continuum of coverup activity within Main Justice and the FBI, supported by all other various agencies who operate in support. What are they covering up? The 2012 through 2016 political spying operation within the Obama administration, as carried out by the same Main Justice and FBI operations.

President Obama, James Comey and John Brennan know the DC apparatus that supports the national security state will never allow the people in charge of their inquisition to reveal the database collection system that forms the foundation of the modern national security state. That’s the reason for their collective arrogance and confidence.
