Elon Musk is feuding with Brazil’s powerful Supreme Court: The court has become the de facto regulator of social media in the country

Paid articlePaid

Quick Glance: Elon Musk's Clash with Brazil's Supreme Court

Serial entrepreneur Elon Musk has been publicly criticizing Alexandre de Moraes, one of Brazil's Supreme Court judges, for the past week.

The dispute revolves around X, a social media company owned by Mr. Musk, which announced on April 6th that a Brazilian court had ordered it to block a set of 'popular' accounts or face hefty fines.

Mr. Moraes then initiated an inquiry against Mr. Musk for obstruction of justice, leading Mr. Musk to claim that censorship in Brazil is worse than in any other country where the platform operates.

The row highlights the power of Brazil's Supreme Court and the debate on regulating social media without harming freedom of speech, which is a crucial battleground in Brazil.

Cho calls for Yoon and PPP leader Han Dong-hoon, both former prosecutors, to be held accountable for abuse of power.

The leftwing alliance narrowly missed the 200-seat mark that would have allowed them to bypass a presidential veto. Yoon now faces over three years as a lame duck, while the country heads towards more than three years of stagnation.

apnews.com/article/beyonce-cowboy-carter-country-albums-chart-9e542a074e5a8d6113d80caff6a3cda7

Quick Glance: Has Beyoncé Already Created Her Rock Album?

Beyoncé blends R&B, country, and hard-hitting guitars on Cowboy Carter, hinting at a potential rock album, with some arguing that this album could already fit that genre.

Tracks like the Prince-meets-Sheryl Crow pop-rock gem 'Bodyguard' and the spectacular Tina Turner-style anthem 'Ya Ya' support the notion, along with the proggy elements in the Jon Batiste-assisted opening track 'American Requiem'.

However, with 27 often wildly disparate tracks, Cowboy Carter is challenging to categorize. In a new episode of Rolling Stone Music Now, many tracks are discussed, speculating that Beyoncé's next album, the third in the trilogy, might be an official rock album.

One of the album's guest stars, country singer Willie Jones, expresses excitement about collaborating with one of his biggest inspirations on the ballad 'Just for Fun' in the episode.

Quick Glance: Elon Musk and the Support of Far-Right in Brazil

A court in Brazil is planning an investigation against X owner Elon Musk for alleged obstruction of justice, following Musk's reactivation of accounts belonging to far-right individuals that were flagged by the Brazilian government for removal.

Under Musk's leadership, X has transformed into a sanctuary for the far right and dissemination of misinformation, resulting in an escalation of hate speech on the platform.

Experts caution that Musk is establishing a dangerous precedent by protecting and promoting the far right on his platform, regardless of local regulations or public opinion.

Despite Musk's claims of advocating for free speech, the implementation of these principles on the platform has been inconsistent under his direction, especially concerning government requests to deactivate accounts.

Quick Glance: Death Sentence for Real Estate Tycoon in Vietnam's Largest Fraud Case

Truong My Lan, a prominent businesswoman and real estate tycoon, was sentenced to death in Vietnam's largest financial fraud case, marking a shocking development in the country's escalating anti-corruption campaign.

Born in 1956, Lan founded the Van Thinh Phat company with her family in 1992, which grew to become one of Vietnam's richest real estate firms linked to some of Ho Chi Minh's most valuable properties.

She was accused of using the bank as her cash cow, illegally controlling it between 2012 and 2022, and using thousands of 'ghost companies' in Vietnam and abroad to give loans to herself and her allies.

Her arrest in October 2022 falls within a period of increased anti-corruption efforts in Vietnam ramping up since 2022, impacting the country's economic outlook and unsettling foreign investors.

Quick Glance: EU Parliament Approves Comprehensive Reforms to Migration Policy

The EU Parliament has approved significant measures to reform migration policy, aiming to enhance handling irregular migration.

The reforms aim to distribute the burden on countries that historically hosted the most asylum seekers, particularly in southern EU nations.

Despite the limited scope of some reforms, the solidarity mechanism is expected to build trust between member states and create some harmony.

Implementation of the reforms will take time and ultimately depend on member states, potentially leading to political tensions.
