Look up at the sky, at the dark shapes of American warplanes hanging there. Ask yourself: is there something sinister in liberalism? And then answer: no. God is in his heaven. Everything is normal on Earth.

Capital firm to purchase The Daily Telegraph — Al Jazeera
article text
A consortium led by US investment firm RedBird Capital Partners has agreed to buy the publisher of the United Kingdom’s 170-year-old Daily Telegraph newspaper for about $674m (500 million pounds).
Redbird said it has reached an agreement in principle to become controlling owner of the Telegraph Media Group, ending a lengthy takeover saga for the conservative-leaning newspaper on Friday.
Gerry Cardinale, founder and managing partner of RedBird, said the sale “marks the start of a new era for The Telegraph as we look to grow the brand in the UK and internationally, invest in its technology and expand its subscriber base”.
The Telegraph group, previously owned by the UK’s Barclay family, was put up for sale two years ago to help pay off the family’s debts. It publishes the Daily and Sunday Telegraph newspapers and weekly newsmagazine The Spectator, which all are closely allied to the UK’s Conservative Party.
In 2023, there was an offer to buy the publications from RedBird IMI, a consortium backed by RedBird Capital Partners and Sheikh Mansour bin Zayed Al Nahyan, a member of Abu Dhabi’s royal family and the vice president of the United Arab Emirates.
But the consortium pulled out last year following strong opposition from the UK government, which launched legislation to block foreign state ownership of the British press.
Under the deal, Abu Dhabi’s IMI will take a minority stake of not more than 15 percent in the Telegraph as a member of the consortium. The sale must be approved by British regulators.
RedBird has investments in football team AC Milan, the parent company of Liverpool football club and film production company Skydance.
Telegraph Media Group chief executive Anna Jones said that “RedBird Capital Partners have exciting growth plans that build on our success — and will unlock our full potential across the breadth of our business.”
The Spectator was sold in September to British hedge fund investor Paul Marshall
This will most likely result in the Telegraph being decimated and Red Bird tearing the copper out of the walls.
What do you think the implications of this will be? Do you think Russia is preparing for another push?

I don’t get the point of dollar coins. If ApplePay and GarminPay exist, why would I ever want to carry around physical coins? They’re heavy and awkward and just generally worse than NFC payments. The US has dollar coins but their use is solely in being desk jewelry, not transactions.
Thank you for your response. I always appreciate your in-depth knowledge on missile systems.

That’s the issue, yes. Although wrongful convictions still exist with imprisonment as a punishment, and sex crimes tend to have a lower rate of wrongful conviction due to the frequency of DNA evidence.
The UK is going to do that either way—they don’t need a pretext to mistreat trans people, so at least they’re reducing recidivism a bit. I just wish they used the method that results in a 100% reduction in recivism forremoveds.

I think the impact will be minimal at best. Harvard doesn’t have a huge leg above Yale, Princeton and Stanford for the humanities and they are behind MIT, Caltech, CMU and arguably Berkeley for STEM. The influence will remain through those institutions and this act is done due to Trump’s personal vendetta against Harvard.

Trump bans foreign students from enrolling at Harvard. Current students must transfer or be deported.
Associated Press
WASHINGTON (AP) — The Trump administration revoked Harvard University’s ability to enroll international students in its escalating battle with the Ivy League school, saying thousands of current students must transfer to other schools or leave the country.
The Department of Homeland Security announced the action Thursday, saying Harvard has created an unsafe campus environment by allowing “anti-American, pro-terrorist agitators” to assault Jewish students on campus. Without offering evidence, it also accused Harvard of coordinating with the Chinese communist party.
“This means Harvard can no longer enroll foreign students and existing foreign students must transfer or lose their legal status,” the agency said in a statement.
Harvard enrolls almost 6,800 foreign students at its campus in Cambridge, Massachusetts, accounting for more than a quarter of its student body. Most are graduate students, coming from more than 100 countries.
“This administration is holding Harvard accountable for fostering violence, antisemitism, and coordinating with the Chinese Communist Party on its campus,” Kristi Noem said in a statement.
The administration revoked Harvard’s certification in the Student and Exchange Visitor Program, which gives the school the ability to sponsor international students to get their visas and attend school in the United States
