Democracy is under siege. Oligarchs Larry and David Ellison are consolidating their personal control of information, and media. TikTokUS, CBS News are under their control and they are attempting to use massive debt and foreign cash to take over Warner Bros Discovery (HBO, CNN and many cable channels and media properties). This is not an ordinary merger. This is a debt time-bomb and would mean harmful hyper-consolidation of the media and entertainment industry under the control of one family - while saddling a merged company with $80+ billion dollars in debt. Join us and learn from a distinguished panel of experts about the largest attempted leveraged buyout in history - and why that matters to the American media landscape, national security, press freedom, workers, consumers and democracy. Why does the massive debt used to finance the takeover matter? What would the 39%+ foreign ownership by 3 petro-state (Saudi Arabia, UAE, Qatar) sovereign wealth funds mean for Americans? Past mega-mergers have failed consumers, employees, shareholders - could this be different? How do Data Centers, AI and Larry Ellison's personal finances impact the deal and stability of a possible merged entity? Panelists: - [**Alvaro Bedoya**](https://www.economicliberties.us/alvaro-bedoya/) Senior advisor at the American Economic Liberties Project and served as a Federal Trade Commissioner from 2022 to 2025. - [**Pete Johnson**](https://gallatin.nyu.edu/academics/faculty/pete-johnson.html) Visiting Assistant Professor at NYU’s Gallatin School of Individualized Study.

Political satirists like me are obsessed with absurd ideas and events – events so absurd that you could, if you were a bit bonkers, actually imagine them happening.

John Della Volpe: Don’t Count Them Out!

We all need a safe place to sleep. Yet, facing a surging housing crisis, our government is arresting and forcibly institutionalizing homeless people rather than investing in affordable housing and other known solutions. Congress must intervene to protect unhoused people's rights.
