Can't believe our tax dollars are going to be spent settling the upcoming exorbitant defamation suit with Sabrina Carpenter, but maybe this is just how public arts funding is going to work now.
Sabrina Carpenter ratioed the White House after it used her song in an ICE video.

The sexual objectification/humiliation and the attempt to co-opt and reverse their political/ideological leanings come from the same desire to abuse power over women, control women, and ultimately force women to perform for you and your interests in rejection of their autonomy
