The signatories agreed to “join a coalition to combat narco-terrorism” and advocated for the policy of “peace through strength.” The Shield is President Donald Trump‘s new international coalition to combat drug cartels in the Americas — but experts say it uses old, heavy-handed tactics, with a focus more on centralized control than real results. Following her ouster as head of the Department of Homeland Security, Kristi Noem was appointed — or, as some have argued, demoted — to Special Envoy to the Shield, where she said the U.S.’s interests lay in helping nearby countries “with their borders and the challenges they have.” “This is intended to be a group that works together to ensure we’re defending our own sovereignty, we’re each defending our own security and economic prosperity,” Noem said at the summit.

As the Sundance Film Festival gets started with plenty of independently produced films on offer, AMC Networks is announcing that Sundance Now is rebranding as a streaming service focused on indie film and festival titles.

Other highlights will include new spotlight titles added every Friday and an overall curated library with refreshed monthly collections. Film festival …
