Also, people forget that copyright isn't only about money. It's about who can use your labor.
Nobody should have to endure seeing their song get played at a republican convention. Nobody should have to see their little cartoon character become a nazi meme. Right now, you can sue when that happens.

Your Mother’s Day weekend reminder that the so-called “party of family values” has historically blocked:
-Paid family & medical leave
-Universal childcare
-Universal pre-K
-Expanded Child Tax Credit
-Programs to support reproductive health
Doesn’t sound very pro-family to me.

Trump's FTC is planning to lift restrictions on two oil CEOs who allegedly colluded with foreign governments to jack up gas prices.
This comes after the CEOs, their family members, and businesses gave big donations to Trump and the RNC.
The rule of law is for sale under Trump.

If Trump can claim a "national emergency" to disappear U.S. residents without due process, what’s to stop him from doing the same to U.S. citizens who oppose him?
Either everyone has due process — or no one does.

I keep my head down and turn out good work and I just barely made rent this month, but a lady calls a kid the n-word at a playground and she raises a half-million dollars in a week. I don't get the world, and I don't like it. We are surrounded by rotten dogshit assholes and they're thriving.

Even *if* you accept Stephen Miller’s (textually, historically, and morally indefensible) claim that undocumented immigrants are not entitled to due process, you’d *still* need due process to ensure that the individuals at issue are, in fact, undocumented.
His argument fails even on its own terms.
