Quick Glance: Trump's Hush Money Trial: Opening Statements Scheduled for Monday

The completion of the final jury selection for Donald Trump's hush money trial occurred, with an appellate judge rejecting the former president's latest attempt to stop the case.

The accusation against Trump involves a system to conceal negative stories that could harm his 2016 campaign. Trump has pleaded not guilty, asserting the falsehood of the stories.

Despite prior failed attempts to delay the trial, a lawyer for Trump argued in court that the jury selection was rushed, but the court denied this claim.

Throughout the trial, Trump utilized the prosecution as a political rallying cry, presenting himself as a victim while managing his dual role as both a defendant and a presidential candidate.

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.

Quick Glance: Self-Immolation at Trump Trial in New York

During the significant legal proceedings against Donald Trump in New York, a man seemingly set himself on fire in front of the Manhattan courthouse on Friday. The incident occurred precisely at the moment when the jury composition was being established in the courtroom.

This initial criminal case against a former US President revolves around an alleged hush money payment to former porn star Stormy Daniels, which Trump purportedly attempted to conceal through the manipulation of business records. The verdict is anticipated before the November presidential election, where Trump aims to run against Joe Biden.

A pivotal aspect of the Trump trial is the selection of the jury to ensure impartiality. Despite expectations of a longer jury selection process, Judge Merchan is determined to expedite the proceedings.

Quick Glance: USC Cancels Filmmaker's Graduation Keynote Amid Controversy

The University of Southern California canceled filmmaker Jon M. Chu's keynote speech just days after disallowing the student valedictorian from speaking.

The private university in Los Angeles announced the cancelation of valedictorian Asna Tabassum's speech at the May 10 ceremony due to safety concerns.

The university's decision was praised by pro-Israel organizations but condemned by free speech groups and the Council on American-Islamic Relations.

University officials are now 'redesigning' the entire commencement program.
