Democrats are alleging foul play.

“President Donald Trump continued a firing spree at the Library of Congress on Saturday when he dismissed the top copyright official in the nation — a position traditionally overseen by the legislative branch.

The White House contacted Register of Copyrights Shira Perlmutter Saturday afternoon informing her that her job leading the U.S. Copyright Office had been “terminated,” according to internal Library of Congress communications obtained by POLITICO.”

Firing the Librarian of Congress, the hiring authority for the Copyright Office… and then dismissing the head of that office the very next day, creates a manufactured legal vacuum! Who is benefiting from this?
Then check:
<<Rep. Joe Morelle, the top Democrat on the House Administration Committee which oversees the Library of Congress and U.S. Copyright Office, is alleging it is “no coincidence [Trump] acted less than a day after [Perlmutter] refused to rubber-stamp Elon Musk’s efforts to mine troves of copyrighted works to train AI models.”>>
