Deadline reports that Reddick, who plays the unflappable concierge known as Charon in New York’s neutral ground for assassins, has just inked a deal with Lionsgate to reprise his role once again in the upcoming entry of the addictively violent series. As part of a handful of actors who have starred alongside Keanu Reeves since the first John Wick, it seems almost poetic that Reddick would inevitably continue his run....

Just one week on from Biden’s inauguration, China has had to defend itself against U.S. charges of intimidation against its neighbors, as well as malpractice in trade and technology. As Biden’s victory became more certain in the days after the 2020 election, Chinese officials remained largely silent until Xi Jinping sent a congratulatory telegram in late November. Before that, however, China’s state-owned media outlets had already turned on the charm and were confident that the new president and his cabinet would restore U....

Bitcoin dropped as low as $47,467.91 in early trading Friday. Bitcoin’s market cap fell below $1 trillion. Ethereum, the world’s second-most popular cryptocurrency, fell 10.68%. XRP, Stellar and Cardona, also slid into the red. CoinMarketCap said the decline erased about $200 billion in the entire cryptocurrency market. “The proposal would put the effective tax rate at above 50% in certain states and would be detrimental to job creation,” Carlos Betancourt, co-founder of BKCoin Capital in Miami, told Newsweek, “and would continue to accelerate the move from states like California and New York to more tax- friendly states like Florida and Texas that have no state income tax....
He’s received plaudits from socialist Bernie Sanders, “squad” member Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and Senator Elizabeth Warren, who recently said that we’re so close to enacting the socialist agenda she’s long advocated for that she can “taste it.” Unfortunately for the American people, Biden’s “new New Deal” is taking our country down a path all too familiar to those who study history. While Democrats talk incessantly about supposed “systemic racism” lurking around every corner, the real enemy we face is the systemic socialism that Joe Biden and his Democratic allies on Capitol Hill and in state capitols around the country are foisting upon us....
Trump confirmed in the early hours that he and Melania had received positive tests, with the pair isolating following this. “We will begin our quarantine and recovery process immediately,” he wrote. “We will get through this TOGETHER!” In a message following this, Biden said he and his wife, Jill, will “continue to pray” for the pair’s health. “Jill and I send our thoughts to President Trump and First Lady Melania Trump for a swift recovery....

“Choosing to put politics and political elections above the health of our Democracy is unconscionable,” Manchin said in a video shared to Twitter on Friday. “And the betrayal of the oath we each take is something they will have to live with.” His remarks come hours after a bill that would form an independent commission into the events of January 6 was filibustered in the Senate by a 54-35 vote, with only six Republicans breaking ranks to join every Democrat in favor of advancing the legislation....
The Labor Department announced on Thursday that annual inflation had increased at its fastest pace in 40 years. However, Manchin said in a statement emailed to Newsweek that Congress cannot add “more fuel to an economy already on fire” by intervening. He believes it’s time for the Federal Reserve to take the reins. Inflation is “draining the hard-earned wages of every American” and “causing real and severe economic pain that can no longer be ignored,” the moderate Democrat said in his emailed statement....

Rogan was widely criticized by hundreds of medical and scientific experts for airing false statements on vaccines and the COVID pandemic on his show, which boasts an estimated 11 million listeners a month.

Now Rogan, who reportedly signed a $250 million deal with the streaming service, has said he will quit podcasting if he “has to walk on eggshells....

Jameson hasn’t been on a baseball field since. Until Friday. Still recovering from a bite that dismayed doctors, Jameson threw out the first pitch before the Rockies played the Dodgers at Coors Field. His big brother JB, 3, played the part of catcher. The pitch might have lacked some velocity, but it registered triple digits on the cute radar. MORE: A-Rod plays with autistic children | 100-year-old man throws first pitch in Cleveland...

Bolton’s claim, reported by The New York Times on Sunday, is at the heart of Democrats’ allegations that the president abused his power and obstructed Congress’ subsequent investigation. First floated by Sen....
