BREAKING: Matt Damon and Ben Affleck threaten Donald Trump, put him on notice that he must stop using the audio from their movies in order to promote his campaign and fundraise money or else they will take serious action.

It all started shortly after Trump was slapped with a federal indictment for violating the Espionage Act, when Trump posted a campaign video on TruthSocial in which he played the victim and begged for donations from his gullible followers.

The problem is that Trump used audio in the video from one of Affleck and Damon’s movies titled Air, a biographical drama starting Michael Jordan.

Affleck and Damon’s studio just released this public statement calling out Trump and sending him a thinly-veiled threat that that they will take legal action if he does it again:

“We had no foreknowledge of, did not consent to and do not endorse or approve any footage or audio from Air being repurposed by the Trump campaign as a political advertisement. Specifically in terms of any and all rights available to us under US copyright and intellectual property law, we hereby, expressly give notice that in the case of any use of material from Air by the Trump campaign where approval or consent is required, we do not grant such consent.”

Please retweet and ❤️ to thank Ben Affleck and Matt Damon for setting Trump straight — and consider joining the growing exodus to Tribel, a new Twitter competitor that is exploding in popularity because Elon Musk banned Tribel’s Twitter account — but he forgot to ban this link to download the new Tribel app: https://t.co/HnJzSKj4Hp

@WNYC @Gothamist Headline #Edit!! "Amy DeGise loses license for 1 year" #PleaseClarify

License to do what?
Practice Law?
Operate a Business?
Operate an Automobile?

"Jersey City's Amy DeGise loses license for 1 year in plea deal for hit-and-run"

@WNYC awful to hear of #constructionworkerdeath on West End Avenue. Every #workerdeath is a #tragedy. Why was the address NOT INCLUDED in the story? You gave the location: 72nd and WEA, but not the address. #WhyTheOmission

Well lit. Strong pillow work. Blanket ladder. Pro textile. Challenging Trump for R nomination will help. Running third party will not. 10/10 @RepLizCheney

Great piece on the separation of church & state & originalism on #alexwagnertonight. Originalism is such bullshit bc the framers of the #Constitution included how to change it. Moreover, Jefferson wrote about it being a living document.

@WNYC Why is the audio version of this story so dreadful? The audio version makes no mention of the location--other than "lower east side." ARGH!

Where is the audio version of this story that has been broadcast multiple times this past weekend and today?

Classic comedy.

Astronaut Mark Kelly once smuggled a full gorilla suit on board the International Space Station. He didn't tell anyone about it. One day, without anyone knowing, he put it on. (source: Reddit)

@yenbakas Interesting and informative report on Daylight Savings Time.

But please: No need to abbreviate the subject: saying "DST" instead of "Daylight Savings Time" is distracting. #NoAbbreviations #NoShortcuts #NoDistractions

@PeteSouza It's only a story to distract from other news of the day.

@ailsachang Connie Smith’s 52nd or 54th album: which is it?

You say: “Today the country music legend Connie Smith releases her 54th album...” but the headline reads “With Her 52nd Album, Connie Smith Re-Affirms…”
