July 13, 2023: Hollywood actors poised to strike, joining writers, US FTC chair, Russian general fired, Thailand, US heatwave

1. Negotiators for Hollywood's actors union unanimously recommended a strike after talks with studios broke down, setting the stage for performers to join writers on picket lines as early as Thursday and disrupt scores of shows and movies.

2. Lina Khan, the progressive head of the U.S. Federal Trade Commission, goes before a Republican-led House committee on Thursday where she will likely face tough questions including about her court defeats over big corporate mergers.

3. A Russian general said he had been dismissed as a commander after telling the military leadership about the dire situation at the front in Ukraine, where he said Russian soldiers had been stabbed in the back by the failings of the top military brass.

4. Thailand's Pita Limjaroenrat failed on Thursday in his initial bid to become Thailand's next prime minister, after he was thwarted in a high-stakes parliamentary vote that included a host of no-shows and nearly 200 abstentions.

5. A prolonged heat wave blanketed a swath of the U.S. stretching from California to South Florida on Wednesday, with forecasters expecting temperatures that could shatter records in parts of the Southwest in the coming days.
