"the #Trump administration fired the Librarian of #Congress, Carla Hayden, who was the first woman & first Black person to hold the position. The Librarian of Congress is responsible for appointing the #Copyright Register, not the executive branch.

...the #WhiteHouse does not have the power to remove the leader of the copyright office, either. “The president has as much legal power to fire the Register of Copyrights as I do, which is to say: none”"

The Sadies love me and I love them. The desert is a little bit warm for me though, but my new Trump tower there is gonna be beautiful only 20 million for a condo for you.
I can’t wait to get a new airplane. I’m so tired of these old ones. The best part is I get to keep it after I’m not president anymore.

Everyone call the #whitehouse ! It looks like black South Africans are even more likely to be murdered than white ones!

I'm sure the US will immediately welcome all of these innocent South Africans fleeing the chaos.

#Copyright Office thinks AI companies sometimes stole content-The Register

Some see an action to benefit Elon. The #WhiteHouse sees an agency obsessed with #DEI

The head of the US Copyright Office has reportedly been fired, the day after agency concluded that builders of AI models use of copyrighted material went beyond existing doctrines of fair use.

The office’s opinion on fair use came in a draft of the third part of its report on copyright & #AI.

The Register · US Copyright Office found AI companies sometimes breach copyright. Next day its boss was firedBy Simon Sharwood

How dare that congresswoman allow my masked armed agents to shove her into one of their fellow agents. Why she wasn’t arrested on the spot I don’t understand. My ice troops are my favorite troops. They are here to protect America from the radical left. We will put in jail whoever we want to whenever we want to.

In the words of the famous man Popeye. I am what I am. What you see is what you get I will say whatever I want, it will mean whatever I want. I am the master Weaver, I will bring peace to the world or war to the world. Who knows I don’t. I really want that Nobel peace prize. I don’t know why they won’t give it to me.

Promises made promises kept. Congress be aware if you don’t like it my ice agents will manhandle you. Supreme Court said I can’t be prosecuted for any act while I’m in office.Act I will.They’re getting what they asked for. I’m glad they love me so much. Everybody loves me. The whole world loves me. It’s a love fest.

"#StephenMiller said today the #WhiteHouse is "actively looking at" suspending the #WritofHabeasCorpus "

The entire problem here is that #Trump can just write another #ExecutiveOrder, #CBP and #ICE can just start acting if Habeas Corpus is defunct, and what do people do?

You have to get a lawyer and sue

Meanwhile you've been arrested and shipped off to a Gulag-for-Hire in #ElSavador

Three months later (if you're lucky) you've found a #FederalJudge who hasn't been terrified into silence and #Miller and #Trump get told they're wrong

Again

And suffer no repercussions or consequences whatsoever

Again
