On Friday, Ghislaine Maxwell's lawyers filed suit to stop the release of about 90,000 Epstein files. Her lawyers say a law Congress passed in December to force the release of millions of Epstein-related documents violates the Constitutionโs separation of powers doctrine.

Exactly! Where is my tariff check? ๐ค

CNN: Apparently the breakfast had been going well. Then Trump became enraged. He started ranting about the decision, not only calling it a disgrace, but started attacking the courts at one point saying: these fโing courts

Yes, the Supreme Court ruled that the orange felonโs sweeping global tariffs are illegal, but will they force him to pay back all the money the American people have personally lost as a result of his fraudulent recklessness, nope and thatโs the most sinister takeaway for me.

I managed to keep myself away from the feeds all day so I just watched the free skate--and it was amazing to watch Alysa Liu skate. So free and unabashedly joyful. A gold medal is just icing on the cake.
(And how adorable was Ami Nakai for being so happy to get the bronze. And Amber Glenn is ๐ฅ)

These photos of gold medalist Alysa Liu are fantastic. Her skating routine was impeccable. Love her gold dress and her exhuberance. #Olympics

This platform needs way more freaking out about Alysa Liu. Oakland chill yet extreme excellence is the antidote to everything thatโs so broken right now.

I am so sad to hear about Eric Dane. I am also shocked by how quickly ALS took him.
I remember that shower scene when he first showed up on Greyโs Anatomy.
My cousin and I shared a heart attack.

Eric Dane first noticed symptoms of what would turn out to be ALS in 2024.
He was formally diagnosed in April 2025 and shared the news publicly the same month.
So he had less than two years from the time he noticed symptoms until he passed away, and less than a year after diagnosis.
Devastating.
