60 Min Breaking: Trump's BIG Win, Kamala Harris Ruined |CBS Forced To Pay $30,00,000 To US President

Trump WINS Big: Paramount Global and CBS have agreed to a settlement of over $30 million with Donald Trump over allegations tied to a 2024 “60 Minutes” interview with Kamala Harris. Trump claimed CBS manipulated footage to favor Harris, prompting a $20 billion lawsuit. The settlement includes $16M in legal and library fees, plus a major eight-figure PSA campaign for conservative causes. As CBS executives resign and FCC scrutiny intensifies, the network denies wrongdoing—insisting the case is unrelated to the looming Paramount-Skydance merger. #TrumpVsCBS #DonaldTrump #CBSNews #MediaLawsuit #KamalaHarris #60Minutes #NewsDistortion #FCC #ParamountGlobal #SkydanceMerger #MediaScandal #PoliticalNews #TrumpLawsuit #BroadcastEthics #Trump2024 #WendyMcMahon #BillOwens #ScottPelley #LesleyStahl #NewsControversy #LegalSettlement #ElectionInterference #TrumpLegalTeam #CBSControversy #MediaBias #FakeNews #TrumpWins #ConservativeMedia #FCCPolicy #KamalaInterview #BreakingNews #TrumpWINS Also Read Deal With India With Less Tariffs Soon: US Prez Donald Trump :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/deal-with-india-with-less-tariffs-soon-us-president-donald-trump-7788921.html?ref=DMDesc 'Close Up Shop And Move Back To South Africa': US President Donald Trump's Deportation Warning To Elon Musk :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/close-up-shop-and-move-back-to-south-africa-us-president-donald-trumps-deportation-warning-to-el-7788061.html?ref=DMDesc Top Iranian Cleric Declares Fatwa Against Donald Trump, Netanyahu :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/top-iranian-cleric-declares-fatwa-against-donald-trump-netanyahu-7786905.html?ref=DMDesc ~HT.410~ED.420~GR.125~

Stephen Colbert FIRED! Trump MOCKS Late-Night Host as CBS Cancels Anti-Trump 'Late Night Show'

Stephen Colbert’s Late Show is being canceled by CBS in May 2026, just days after he called Paramount’s $16M Trump settlement “a big fat bribe” to smooth DOJ approval for an $8B Skydance merger. Trump celebrated the cancellation on Truth Social, mocking Colbert’s “talent” despite the show leading late-night ratings with 2.4M viewers. CBS claims the move is financial, but critics argue it’s political pressure to appease Trump allies like Skydance buyer David Ellison. Analysts warn this signals growing politicization of corporate media decisions. #StephenColbert #TheLateShow #Colbert #IStandWithColbert #SaveTheLateShow #CancelColbert #Trump #CBS #Paramount #Censorship #FreedomOfSpeech #PressFreedom #ColbertFired #BoycottCBS #BoycottParamount #SkydanceMerger #CorporatePolitics #LateNight ~HT.318~GR.125~

Trump Declares War on ‘Woke AI'—Executive Orders to Kill DEI, Slash Regulations, Build U.S AI Empire

In a fiery appearance at the AI Summit in Washington, Donald Trump signed a sweeping set of executive orders targeting what he called “woke Marxist lunacy” embedded in artificial intelligence. Trump vowed to eliminate diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) from all federally supported AI development and accused the Biden administration of poisoning tech innovation with "toxic ideology." The executive orders fast-track data center construction by gutting environmental protections, eliminate DEI from procurement guidelines, and demand that federal AI models reflect "truth, fairness, and strict impartiality." Trump’s message was clear: America must lead the world in AI—and without the politics of the left. Is this the beginning of an AI revolution—or a rollback of rights? #Trump #WokeAI #AIExecutiveOrder #AmericaFirstAI #DEIBan #ArtificialIntelligence #AIRegulation #BigTech #TrumpSpeech #TechPolicy #USPolitics #AIReform #Trump2025 #BreakingNews #WokeTech ~HT.178~PR.274~ED.102~GR.124~
