Takeoff from the Migos is known to always keep to himself outside of work-related events. You usually never see his name in any drama and he barely ever posts on social media. Simply put: he stacks his paper and stays out the way. That’s why last August when news broke that Takeoff was involved in a sexual assault lawsuit, everyone was shocked.

The woman listed as ‘Jane Doe’ claimed the incident happened at a Los Angeles house party on June 22. Takeoff maintained he was innocent and hired famed lawyer Drew Findling to represent him. According to TMZ, Takeoff has officially been cleared in the case.

Takeoff will not face charges for allegedly raping a woman at a party last year … TMZ has learned.

The L.A. County District Attorney’s office tells us it’s declining to prosecute the Migos rapper for the sexual assault allegations made against him in August 2020 due to insufficient evidence.

Takeoff’s lawyer, Drew Findling, says his office spent countless hours investigating the case and concluded the same thing as prosecutors. He tells us, “The allegations were patently and provably false.”

Though the rapper has been cleared of all criminal charges, he still faces a civil lawsuit from the alleged victim.

Los Angeles District Attorneys do not play if there was even an ounce of evidence they could use to take this to trial or hold him accountable in any fashion, they would have. Hopefully, Takeoff doesn’t have any more drama pop up attached to his name, especially involving something as serious as sexual assault.

This week in politics, the vibes are messy, alarming, and straight-up confusing. From late night TV being snatched off the air to vaccine policies getting hijacked, it’s giving “WTF is going on?” Let’s break down the headlines everyone’s talking about inside. First Amendment on the Chopping Block Jimmy Kimmel’s late night show has been pulled from ABC, and Stephen Colbert’s show? Cancelled completely. The official line is murky, but the bigger picture is loud. Free speech is being tested under the Trump administration. While Trump once said he’d “honor” the First Amendment, recent moves suggest he’s working off a remix version that only benefits him. Case in point? The Guardian reports his $15 billion lawsuit against The New York Times. A judge already tossed it out, saying Trump’s claims about “false content” violated federal rules. Still, the fact that these lawsuits and cancellations keep happening has people questioning the future of free expression in America. CDC Shake-Up Sparks Health Concerns Meanwhile, over at the CDC, things are getting political fast. Secretary Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. has basically turned the agency upside down, firing all 17 members of the vaccine advisory committee and replacing them with appointees that include vaccine skeptics. On top of that, the CDC director is out, high-level staffers are resigning, and decisions about vaccine safety are suddenly more about politics than science. Public health leaders are calling this move dangerous, saying it dismantles independent oversight just when Americans need clarity most. According to California’s government website, they are one of the few states pushing back on the federal government’s stance. California, Washington, and Hawaii aren’t taking it lying down. The states have formed an alliance pushing back on the feds, promising to keep vaccine guidance rooted in science, safety, and transparency. Their health officers are reviewing guidelines from trusted medical groups like the AAP and ACOG to ensure communities still have access to clinically recommended vaccines.

Trump called the call with Xi “productive” on Truth Social, and even, teased a face-to-face meetup at the APEC summit in South Korea this fall. From free speech battles to vaccine wars and TikTok drama, this week in politics has us all asking the same thing: WTFGO?
