WASHINGTON (AP) — Federal regulators are investigating ExxonMobil's $60 billion deal to acquire a Texas oil company in what would be one the largest mergers in the energy industry in two decades, according to securities filings. The Federal Trade Commission, which enforces federal antitrust law, has asked for additional information from the companies about Exxon’s proposed acquisition of Pioneer Natural Resources. Exxon reported $9.1 billion in profits in the quarter that ended Sept. 30, while Chevron reported $6.5 billion in profits. Exxon has said the proposed deal with Texas-based Pioneer Resources would enhance U.S. energy security and benefit the American economy and consumers. Chevron said its proposed deal with New York-based Hess would strengthen long-term performance while “delivering higher returns and lower carbon” dioxide emissions that contribute to global warming.

Israel has to punch into the dense Gaza strip with tanks and troops, and conduct searches, he said. The rescue effort would be a "bloody mess" and "catastrophic" to Palestinian civilians, he warned. Israeli forces would have to seize control of the ground level in Gaza and conduct house-to-house searches, he said.

"I don't know how they're going to solve this without massive casualties in their own forces, never mind catastrophic damage in the Gaza strip," McCaffrey added.

The US will probably go to war in Israel if other countries get involved, a retired general said. AdvertisementAdvertisementThe US is likely to directly intervene with air and naval strikes if Israel's existence is threatened, Ret. "I would suggest to you our support of Israel will be absolute, and if we see Syrian military intervention, active Iranian military intervention, we'll go to war," McCaffrey added. However, it's unlikely that the US would send troops into Israel, given the Israel Defense Forces' own ground capabilities, McCaffrey added. They want to make sure that the Syrian military and Hezbollah don't enter this fray," he said.

Donald Trump invited the press to a "media availability" slot at Mar-a-Lago on New Year's Eve. No cable news network covered it, not even Newsmax, according to Raw Story. But in a likely blow to Trump's ego, not a single cable news network covered it, according to Raw Story. On Saturday, MSNBC host Alex Witt announced that the former president would host a surprise New Year's Eve "media availability" slot at approximately 9 p.m. on New Year's Eve. A video of the "media availability" slot, which was covered by the fringe conservative media outlet Right Side Broadcasting Network (RSBN), shows that Trump spoke about the FBI, his 2024 presidential campaign, and Russia's war in Ukraine.

Michael Cohen said that Donald Trump won't apologize for failing to condemn Kanye West. The former president "doesn't care" that his daughter's family is Jewish, Cohen said on MSNBC. Cohen was asked about a Rolling Stone article that said Jewish Republicans are "begging" Trump to denounce Ye. Cohen responded: "He doesn't care that Ivanka married Jared, doesn't care that Ivanka converted. Cohen said Trump would not apologize for failing to condemn Ye because he "can't even acknowledge fault."
