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.
Elon Musk threatens to disobey court order over banned profiles: Brazil threatens to regulate social media owned by "billionaires domiciled abroad."

- 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: Twelve Jurors Seated in Trump's Hush Money Trial
- A jury of 12 individuals was empaneled on Thursday in the landmark hush money trial of former President Donald Trump, bringing the proceedings closer to opening arguments and the commencement of weeks filled with compelling testimonies.
- The upcoming trial is anticipated to present unfavorable testimonies regarding Trump's personal life pre-presidency, including accusations of manipulating business records to suppress narratives in the final days of the 2016 election surrounding his intimate relationships.

- The selection of the jury holds paramount significance in any criminal proceeding, particularly so when the accused is a former president and the presumed Republican candidate. Potential jurors have undergone extensive scrutiny concerning their online presence, personal backgrounds, and political stances as legal representatives and the judge meticulously scrutinize for partialities that could compromise their impartiality.
