According to the Civil Administration, the outpost is built on private Palestinian land. At least 22 Border Police officers and Civil...

Alarm! With rampant inflation, The Federal Reserve has raised rates to tame inflation. And with the rate increases, US pending home sales have fallen -5% since last year.

For most of Western history art was used as a way for patrons to showcase achievements or propagandize citizens or lionize individuals. Maybe the single greatest artist in human history, Michelangelo, created his greatest works for patrons of various sorts. David created for the Florentine Guild of Wool, the Pieta for the French ambassador to the Holy See and the Sistine Chapel, and St Peter's Basilica for popes. Art was, in one way or another an homage to something greater than its creator. Fast-forward about three centuries and the art world begun to change. Art as an indulgence of artists,...

The current conflict in Ukraine is a direct result of the failure of the Minsk Agreements. Between 2014 and 2015, Russia and the European Union mediated negotiations between the breakaway republics of Donbass and the Kiev government, reaching a mutually beneficial protocol that was expected to guarantee regional peace.

Trump, in typical fashion, then accused the process of being rigged by his opposition. “And that’s what you have to do. You know, the other side does cheat!” he insisted, adding: "And we’re not going to let that happen. We cannot let that happen. But...

Warner Bros. Discovery CEO David Zaslav met with Paramount Global CEO Bob Bakish on Tuesday in New York City to discuss a possible merger, Axios has learned from multiple sources. Why it matters: The combination would create a news and entertainment behemoth that would likely trigger further industry consolidation.

WBD's market value was around $29 billion as of Wednesday, while Paramount's was just over $10 billion, so any merger would not be of equals. Details: The meeting between Zaslav and Bakish, which sources say lasted...
