BREAKING: Actress Taraji Henson just delivered the strongest indictment of Donald Trump’s Project 2025 I’ve seen. Every American needs to know how dangerous Project 2025 is. Retweet so every American sees this.
READ: Justice Sotomayor's warning in her dissent:
"When [the president] uses his official powers in any way, under the majority's reasoning, he now will be insulated from criminal prosecution. Orders the Navy's Seal Team 6 to assassinate a political rival? Immune. Organizes a military coup to hold onto power? Immune. Takes a bribe in exchange for a pardon? Immune. Immune, immune, immune. Let the President violate the law, let him exploit the trappings of his office for personal gain, let him use his official power for evil ends. Because if he knew that he may one day face liability for breaking the law, he might not be as bold and fearless as we would like him to be. That is the majority's message today. Even if these nightmare scenarios never play out, and I pray they never do, the damage has been done. The relationship between the President and the people he serves has shifted irrevocably. In every use of official power, the President is now a king above the law."
Billboard reports that Spotify’s new bundling scheme will pay songwriters $150 million dollars less next year.
It’s time for DSPs to pay artists, musicians, and songwriters fairly! We need the Living Wage for Musicians Act now!
It is worth watching this CNN video from the moment Emory Econ Professor @CarolineFohlin came across the violent arrest of a protester on campus and asked the police, with shock, "What are you doing?" That's all that prompted an officer to hurl her to the ground and handcuff her.
“On May 4, 1970 my sister Allison Krause was killed by the Ohio National Guard on the campus of Kent State University as she protested against the Vietnam War and Cambodian invasion.
I urge President Shafik, and other University administrators across the country to hear the demands of ALL student protesters, to encourage and facilitate zones of free expression, and to support the right of your students to protest an ongoing genocide on campus without the threat of state violence and militarized force."
Statement by Laurel Krause, sister of Allison Krause
(full article in quoted tweet)
Students launched an encampment for Gaza at Ohio State University — the third largest university in the country.
After police swept the camp this morning, students and community have returned to protest in full force.
