☆ Trump seeds disinformation as he sets course for a possible Oval Office return
▼ + stars: | 2024-10-08 | by ( Stephen Collinson | ) edition.cnn.com time to read: +10 min

In a fact-bending blast of disinformation, the former president is charging Vice President Kamala Harris and President Joe Biden’s White House of the very transgressions of which he stands accused. This is false, but Trump, while president, did repurpose FEMA funds to help finance his hardline immigration policies. But in retrospect, the charade featuring his first White House press secretary Sean Spicer was a harbinger of an administration that bucked fact as an instrument of political power. Trump voters respond to his populism and his evisceration of elites and many sincerely believe he’s a response to a march to the left by the Democratic Party. Both Trump and Harris, who are deadlocked in the polls, are chasing voters who may not habitually follow politics.

☆ Google’s search dominance is unwinding
▼ + stars: | 2024-10-08 | by ( David Goldman | ) edition.cnn.com time to read: +5 min

New York CNN —Google is so synonymous with its core product that its name is a verb that means “search.” Yet Google’s dominance of that market is shrinking. For the first time in decades, Google next year will not control a majority of the US search market, according to a forecast by advertising research firm eMarketer. Google will remain the biggest search player, maintaining a 48% share of American search advertising revenue. That ruling could result in the eventual breakup of the company’s search business. TikTok, the fastest growing social network, is getting into into the search business.

McCallum’s speech comes amid a string of Western warnings about the increasing risk of state-sponsored sabotage by nations including Russia and Iran, and as wars in Ukraine and the Middle East rock global security. “We are powerfully alive to the risk that events in the Middle East directly trigger terrorist action in the UK,” he said. And al Qaeda “has sought to capitalise on conflict in the Middle East, calling for violent action.”“After a few years of being pinned well back, they’ve resumed efforts to export terrorism,” he said. The UK has joined allies including the US in loudly publicizing allegations of Russian sabotage since Moscow’s invasion of Ukraine. A third drew up plans to stab people at a music festival and shared terrorist propaganda online,” McCallum said.

House Speaker Mike Johnson on Sunday did not commit to calling Congress back into session before the election after President Joe Biden pressed congressional leaders about potential funding shortfalls in the aftermath of Hurricane Helene. In his letter, the president urged Congress to restore funding to the Small Business Administration’s disaster loan program, which was facing potential funding shortfalls even before Hurricane Helene devastated parts of the Southeast. The president noted that the White House requested more funding for the program as Congress prepared a short-term funding bill that passed last month to avert a government shutdown. Pressed on whether he would call Congress back into session before the election, Johnson replied, “We’ll be back in session immediately after the election.”“That’s 30 days from now. “The American people are disgusted by this, up with it, and so are Republicans in Congress,” he said.
