The $110B Paramount merger just got downgraded to JUNK by Fitch. The new company will be saddled with $79 BILLION in debt. Don't let this be another 'too big to fail' disaster for our portfolios! 📉
🏦 URGENT: STOP THE MEDIA DEBT BOMB 🏦
@Vanguard @BlackRock and State Street: You own 22% of Warner Bros.

Don’t just watch the polls (Dems +5.0% and climbing!). Volunteer. Phone bank. Mobilize. We need to hold the Frontline and flip the "Big Three" states. The 2026 midterms are the last exit before a permanent power grab. Let's get to work. ✊💻 swingleft.org #Resist #2026Midterms
The map is clear: Control of the House runs through 18 "Toss Up" districts. From NY-17 to AZ-01, these races are the only thing standing between us and an unchecked executive branch. If Trump won’t yield to Democrats, we have to make sure he has no choice. 🌊🗽 #FlipTheHouse
The GOP is calling the 2026 midterms a "firewall." Why? Because they know a Blue House means accountability for the DHS shutdown and an actual investigation into the recently released Epstein files. They aren't protecting the country; they’re protecting a seat. 🛡️🔥 #BlueWave2026 #EpsteinFiles
De Niro was right: Trump has no intention of leaving. Between calling to "suspend" the 2026 elections due to the Iran conflict and floating "methods" for a third term, the mask is completely off. We aren't just fighting for seats; we’re fighting for the 22nd Amendment. 🚫🗳️ #Trump #Democracy
@mattbelloni.bsky.social I don't trust Ellison
Supporting the 11-state coalition of AGs demanding a full DOJ block. Keep the libraries separate! 📺
#StreamingWars #Monopoly #ParamountPlus #Max
Prepare for your streaming bills to skyrocket. 💸
If Max and Paramount+ merge, they kill the competition that keeps prices down. One "must-have" app = one massive monopoly.
Don't let the State AGs back down. We need a binding injunction, not corporate pinky swears. 📉

David Ellison is promising "30 movies a year" while simultaneously planning $6 billion in cuts. 🤨
We’ve seen this movie before with Zaslav—the "pro-creative" talk lasts until the first debt payment is due.
This isn't a merger; it’s a controlled demolition of Hollywood.
Glad to see CA AG Rob Bonta calling their bluff. It’s not a "done deal" yet. 🛡️

🚩 Paramount and WBD are trying to merge into a $79 BILLION debt bomb.
How do they plan to pay it? By firing thousands of workers and "deleting" shows for tax breaks.

THE ACTION:
Under Section 9 of the Competition Act, 6 Canadian residents can legally force the Commissioner of Competition to investigate this deal.
@kadath.bsky.social 🇨🇦 LEGAL ALERT: STOP THE $110B MEDIA MONOPOLY
THE RISK:
Paramount has been downgraded to JUNK STATUS (BB+). 📉
This merger saddles Warner Bros. Discovery with $79 BILLION in debt, threatening Canadian jobs and hiking your streaming bills.

The $WBD / Paramount math doesn't add up for shareholders:
❌ Combined Net Debt: ~$79B
❌ Credit Rating: Junk (BB+)
❌ ROIC: Projected at a dismal 6.4%
❌ Regulatory Timeline: 18 months of uncertainty
This deal protects executive bonuses, not shareholder value. 🚩 #WBD #MarketWatch
Antitrust hurdles are massive. Regulators are already circling the CNN/CBS News consolidation. We’re looking at 18 months of "strategic limbo" while the stock stays suppressed. Shareholders deserve better than a debt-heavy monopoly play. Vote no. 🚫
📞 Call your State Attorney General NOW.
Script: "I am calling to urge the AG to investigate the Ellison/Paramount-WBD merger. This deal threatens news independence and consumer pricing. We need a vigorous state-level review!"
#StopTheMerger #Antitrust #BlueskyMobilize
🚨 URGENT: The Paramount-WBD merger is an antitrust disaster. We need State AGs to debunk Ellison’s claims about "regulatory certainty" and "market necessity."
David told investors he’d "rationalize overhead," while privately promising the Trump admin "sweeping changes" to CNN. You can’t claim editorial independence while using a newsroom as a bargaining chip for a $111B merger. 📉 #Ellison #WBD #Paramount
The back-channel deals tell the real story. Reports show Larry Ellison (David’s primary financier) discussed "axing" specific CNN anchors like Erin Burnett in calls with the White House. Public "trust" vs. private "purges."
