Trump issues pardon to former Republican congressman Stephen Buyer after insider trading conviction    President Donald Trump has issued a full pardon to former Republican congressman Stephen Buyer, who served nearly two years in prison after being convicted of insider trading tied to post-congressional consulting work. Buyer was sentenced in 2023 to 22 months in prison for illegal stock trades made while working as a consultant and lobbyist. He was ordered to forfeit more than $350,000 in ill-gotten gains and pay a $10,000 fine. He was released from custody in 2025 after his conviction was upheld, with the Supreme Court declining to take up his appeal earlier this year. In issuing the pardon, Trump described Buyer’s service as a judge advocate general in the U.S. Army and his time in Congress as “distinguished and highly productive.” The pardon, dated Thursday and released by the White House on Friday, grants Buyer “a full, complete, and unconditional pardon.” Buyer has maint...

 Rush Hour 4 revived after Trump reportedly pushed Paramount and Skydance to bring back franchise

President Donald Trump played a key role in reviving Paramount Skydance’s “Rush Hour” franchise, two decades after the last film, multiple reports indicate. Paramount has secured financing for “Rush Hour 4” and reached a distribution agreement with Warner Bros. Discovery, which previously owned the franchise under its New Line banner. The project had been stalled for years as studios were reluctant to work with director Brett Ratner following sexual misconduct allegations in 2017, which he has denied and was never charged with.

According to reports, Paramount’s decision to move forward came after Trump reportedly advocated on Ratner’s behalf. Ratner, who will direct the new film, was also tapped in late 2024 to direct a documentary about first lady Melania Trump for Amazon Prime, reportedly in a $40 million deal. Under the “Rush Hour 4” arrangement, Paramount will collect a flat distribution fee for theatrical release, while Warner Bros. will take a share of box-office receipts before financiers recoup costs. The original “Rush Hour” trilogy earned over $850 million globally and made stars of Jackie Chan and Chris Tucker. Both actors are expected to return for the new installment, though Chan, now 71, has reduced his U.S. studio work, and Tucker has not led a major film since 2007.

The revival comes as Paramount Skydance plans to expand production, aiming for 15 films in 2026 and up to 18 by 2028, amid a major industry shake-up. Paramount, Comcast, and Netflix have all submitted bids for Warner Bros., which holds major franchises including DC and Harry Potter. Paramount’s offer, valued at around $23.50 per share, would acquire Warner Bros., HBO Max, and cable networks under one owner. Comcast and Netflix are also interested in Warner Bros.’ film and streaming assets, while Warner Bros. Discovery hopes to complete its sale process by mid- to late-December. Trump’s involvement in Hollywood has drawn scrutiny, as he has encouraged allies like Sylvester Stallone, Jon Voight, and Mel Gibson as cultural emissaries and promoted what he calls “classical masculinity” in studio filmmaking.
