News Brief
On January 30th, PANews reported that Massachusetts Democratic Senator Elizabeth Warren voiced deep concerns regarding Trump's pick of Warsh for Federal Reserve Chair. Serving as the Senate Banking Committee's leading Democrat, Warren questioned Warsh's ability to lead the Fed free from White House interference. She noted that Trump has clearly stated anyone disagreeing with him won't secure the position. Moreover, Warren believes Warsh—who prioritized Wall Street interests over millions of unemployed Americans following the 2008 financial crisis—has evidently satisfied Trump's loyalty requirements. Therefore, Warren urged Republicans to delay Warsh's confirmation until the Justice Department concludes its investigation into current Fed Chair Powell. In her view, any Republican genuinely committed to the Fed's independence should reject advancing this nomination while Trump pursues his political vendetta against Powell and Governor Lisa Cook.

PANews reported on January 30th that Massachusetts Democratic Senator Elizabeth Warren expressed several concerns on Friday regarding Trump's decision to nominate Warsh. As the ranking Democrat on the Senate Banking Committee (and the first hurdle in Warsh's confirmation process), Warren questioned whether Warsh could lead the Federal Reserve without White House influence. "Trump has stated that anyone who disagrees with him cannot become Chairman of the Federal Reserve," Warren said in a statement. "Former Federal Reserve Governor Kevin Warsh—who was more concerned with helping Wall Street than with millions of unemployed Americans after the 2008 financial crisis—has clearly passed the loyalty test."

Warren called on Republicans to hold off on nominating Warsh until the Justice Department concludes its investigation into current Fed Chair Powell. “Any Republican who claims to care about the Fed’s independence should refuse to proceed with this nomination until Trump stops his ‘political witch hunt’ against current Fed Chair and Governor Lisa Cook,” she said.

Disney Pockets $2.2 Billion For Filming Outside America

The post Disney Pockets $2.2 Billion For Filming Outside America appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Disney has made $2.2 billion from filming productions like ‘Avengers: Endgame’ in the U.K. ©Marvel Studios 2018 Disney has been handed $2.2 billion by the government of the United Kingdom over the past 15 years in return for filming movies and streaming shows in the country according to analysis of more than 400 company filings Disney is believed to be the biggest single beneficiary of the Audio-Visual Expenditure Credit (AVEC) in the U.K. which gives studios a cash reimbursement of up to 25.5% of the money they spend there. The generous fiscal incentives have attracted all of the major Hollywood studios to the U.K. and the country has reeled in the returns from it. Data from the British Film Institute (BFI) shows that foreign studios contributed around 87% of the $2.2 billion (£1.6 billion) spent on making films in the U.K. last year. It is a 7.6% increase on the sum spent in 2019 and is in stark contrast to the picture in the United States. According to permit issuing office FilmLA, the number of on-location shooting days in Los Angeles fell 35.7% from 2019 to 2024 making it the second-least productive year since 1995 aside from 2020 when it was the height of the pandemic. The outlook hasn’t improved since then with FilmLA’s latest data showing that between April and June this year there was a 6.2% drop in shooting days on the same period a year ago. It followed a 22.4% decline in the first quarter with FilmLA noting that “each drop reflected the impact of global production cutbacks and California’s ongoing loss of work to rival territories.” The one-two punch of the pandemic followed by the 2023 SAG-AFTRA strikes put Hollywood on the ropes just as the U.K. began drafting a plan to improve its fiscal incentives…
