The video showcases a user interacting with a digital interface, likely a software application, on a computer screen. The interface features a window with three distinct tabs labeled "All," "Expired," and "Deleted," each with a corresponding icon and a number indicating the count of items in each category. The "All" tab is highlighted in blue, showing 3 items, the "Expired" tab is highlighted in red with an exclamation mark, indicating 0 items, and the "Deleted" tab is highlighted in orange, showing 1 item.
Initially, the cursor hovers over the "Deleted" tab, then moves to the "Expired" tab, highlighting it in red. The right side of the screen displays a sidebar with various icons and labels, including "Air," "BBB," and "Con," suggesting different categories or options within the application. The cursor then moves back to the "All" tab, highlighting it in blue, and finally hovers over the "Expired" tab again, emphasizing the focus on expired items.
Throughout the video, the background remains consistent, with a partially visible document or webpage in the upper left corner, indicating the user is working within a broader context. The video concludes with the cursor still hovering over the "Expired" tab, highlighting it in red, with the sidebar and other interface elements remaining unchanged.

"On the evening of April 30, dozens of police officers raided an outdoor film screening on the UCLA campus. Wearing riot gear & holding projectile weapons, they stormed into an enclosed plaza circled by dormitories. As a helicopter hovered overhead, 2 officers rode motorcycles into this pedestrian-only area filled with students who scattered, panicked...the police confiscated a screen that was literally a sheet strung between 2 poles."
