Over what? Potential protests. For months, the Manhattan district attorneyâs office has been [investigating]( the former president for allegedly covering up a hush money payment to adult film star Stormy Daniels. In 2018, Trumpâs former lawyer, [Michael Cohen](, admitted to paying Daniels $130,000 to stay quiet about an alleged affair with Trump in 2006. Cohen testified that the former president reimbursed him through the Trump Organization, but labeled it as a legal expense. It has the Manhattan DA looking into whether Trump falsified business records for the payment. Now, Trump has called on his supporters to protest and âtake our nation back.â Iâm getting⦠[Flashbacks](? Federal, state, and local law enforcement are [beefing up security](, including putting barricades around the Manhattan Criminal Court. [Officials in DC]( are preparing for protests as well. New York City Mayor Eric Adams (D) said heâs âconfidentâ the cityâs prepared for any protests. Authorities near Trump's Mar-a-Lago estate are also taking security measures. It all comes as some extremists have reportedly called a Trump indictment a âline in the sand" â [raising concerns]( that protests could get violent. Meanwhile, Republican lawmakers, including [House Speaker Kevin McCarthy (R-CA)](, have called for calm and urged against demonstrations. What happens now? The Manhattan DA has yet to announce charges, but could reportedly take the plunge tomorrow. If Trump is still at his Mar-a-Lago home, Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis (R) could get an [extradition request](. DeSantis has said heâs got enough to deal with and isnât getting involved âin any way.â As far as 2024, itâs not clear how an indictment would affect Trumpâs [presidential campaign](, which is already in full swing. theSkimm The indictment of a former US president would be a historic moment in our nation. Now, after Trump has called on his supporters, many worry that there could be a repeat of the violent protests on Jan 6.

Today, tens of thousands of Los Angeles Unified School District employees are expected to begin a three-day strike. The move means the nationâs [second-largest]( school district will cancel classes for its more than 500,000 students. The scheduled strike comes after negotiations between the district and the union representing bus drivers, special education assistants, custodians, and cafeteria workers broke down. The union says staffers make an average of $25,000 a year. So, theyâre calling for a 30% wage increase and an additional $2 an hour for the districtâs lowest-paid employees. But the districtâs not meeting those demands. Now, the LA teachersâ union has called on its 35,000 members to protest in solidarity. The districtâs superintendent said heâs ready to resume negotiations whenever the unionâs ready. In a statement, the union said it knows âa strike will be a sacrificeâ but the district pushed the workers. --------------------------------------------------------------- Who's giving a final say... [President Biden](. Yesterday, he issued the first veto of his presidency over retirement investments. The move upholds a Labor Dept rule allowing retirement fund managers to consider the environmental and social impacts of their investments. Earlier this month, Congress passed a bill to scrap the rule, with Republicans calling it a "woke" policy. Now, Biden's rejected the bill, saying Congress's measure would have put the "retirement savings of individuals across the country" at risk. Any effort to override Biden's veto is unlikely to pass in the House and Senate. ...Oh and speaking of retirement, [French President Emmanuel Macron](âs government survived two no-confidence votes. Now, his plan â which triggered [nationwide protests]( â will gradually increase the retirement age by three months each year until it reaches 64 in 2030. --------------------------------------------------------------- Whoâs getting justice⦠[XXXTentacion](. Yesterday, a Florida jury found three men guilty of first-degree murder and armed robbery in connection with the rapperâs death. In 2018, 20-year-old XXXTentacion was shot and killed outside a Florida motorsports shop during a robbery. He was known for songs like âSad!,â âRoll In Peace,â and âLook At Me!â and for his [passionate fanbase](. Now, all three men are facing life sentences. --------------------------------------------------------------- Whoâs catwalking out of Moschino⦠[Jeremey Scott](. --------------------------------------------------------------- What's giving us a look at the "Scandoval" fallout...
