- As a former president and potential GOP nominee, Trump lost control over his life and faced critical assessments.
- Previously shielded from criticism, Trump now faces potential felony convictions and jail time.

Quick Glance: Google terminates 28 employees after office occupation due to anti-Israel protests
- Google terminated 28 employees on Thursday who had occupied its offices to protest against contracts with the Israeli government, as confirmed by a Google spokesperson.
- The protesters were arrested and after refusing to leave the office of Google Cloud CEO Thomas Kurian in Sunnyvale or the workspace in New York City for nearly 10 hours, they were transferred to administrative positions to urge Google to terminate the Project Nimbus contract and cease business with the Israeli government.
- No Tech For Apartheid, a project by Jewish Voice for Peace and Linda Sarsour’s MPower Change, described the terminations as an "indiscriminate act of mass retaliation."
- The office occupations at Google were accompanied by demonstrations on-site and in Seattle, aiming to compel Google to withdraw from the project to establish cloud-based data centers and transition a significant portion of the Israeli government's IT infrastructure to cloud-based servers.

apnews.com/article/university-of-southern-california-commencement-speech-canceled-125cb8db93f2247ca3e45f782b7fcb2a
Quick Glance: USC Cancels Outside Speaker Appearances at 2024 Commencement After Dismissing Muslim Valedictorian's Speech
- The University of Southern California announced it's canceling appearances by prominent speakers and honorees at its graduation ceremony next month, days after the institution canceled the commencement speech of its Muslim valedictorian Asna Tabassum due to security concerns.
- USC stated that the decision to exclude outside speakers from its 2024 commencement on May 10 is to keep the focus on the graduates. The university had planned to confer honorary degrees on filmmaker Jon M. Chu, alumna Maria Rosario Jackson, tennis legend Billie Jean King, and geophysicist Marcia McNutt.
- The move to cancel the speakers' attendance came shortly after the university denied Tabassum the opportunity to deliver her commencement speech. This decision was met with protests on campus, with many demonstrators advocating for Tabassum's speech to be reinstated.
- Tabassum, a first-generation South Asian American Muslim studying biomedical engineering, defended her decision to share a link criticizing Zionism and advocating for the abolition of Israel, citing her commitment to human rights and academic discourse.
