You guys, it's "The Epstein Ballroom."
Makes perfect sense.

PASS IT ON.

Some actors play emotions. Diane Keaton lived inside them.

Diane Keaton embodied the contradictions of being human: funny and fragile, bright and bruised, always achingly honest. For decades, she filled every frame with warmth, wit, and wonder. A Best Actress Oscar winner and four-time nominee, her presence shaped generations of storytelling. Her spirit will live forever on screen, and in the hearts of all who saw themselves in her.

[Governor JB Pritzker @GovPritzker]

The President of the United States is threatening to go to war with an American city.

This is not a joke. This is not normal.

Donald Trump isn't a strongman, he's a scared man. Illinois won’t be intimidated by a wannabe dictator.

Maxine Waters just invoked the nuclear option.

She’s officially calling on Trump’s cabinet to activate the 25th Amendment, declaring him unfit to serve.

Her words? “Something’s wrong with this president.”

Jaw-dropping crowds in DC right now, heading toward the White House. People do not like military takeovers of their city.

[Republicans against Trump @RpsAgainstTrump]

This isn’t Moscow or Beijing. It’s Chicago. Masked federal agents grabbed U.S. citizens protesting ICE and threw them into an unmarked van.

“Who are you? Where are you taking them?” people shouted. “You are kidnapping them!”

What has America become?

The WH threatening any Republican that signs the Epstein discharge petition.

It’s 100 percent clear Trump is covering up criminal child sex trafficking

[Ursula von der Leyen @vonderleyen]

Last night, Russia launched one of the largest drone and missile strikes on Ukraine, targeting government buildings and civilian homes alike.

Once again, the Kremlin is mocking diplomacy, trampling international law and killing indiscriminately.

Europe stands, and will continue to stand, fully behind Ukraine.

We are reinforcing Ukraine’s armed forces, building lasting security guarantees, and tightening sanctions to increase pressure on Russia.

The killing must end.

Churches in Washington DC are ringing their bells in support of the protest

BREAKING: Governor Wes Moore just loudly stood up and pushed back against Trump’s effort to send the military to Maryland. This is the energy we need.

Duckworth: "Let's make it clear -- the President of the United States essentially just declared war on a major city in his own nation. This is not normal. This is not acceptable behavior."

[Governor Newsom Press Office @GovPressOffice]

Enjoy your weekend, fellow PATRIOTS! Together, we will take AMERICA back from Trump’s extremism and be STRONGER than ever! 🇺🇸

[Volodymyr Zelenskyy / Володимир Зеленський @ZelenskyyUa]

A joint prayer in the St. Sophia’s Cathedral for peace for our people, for peace for Ukraine. We pray for our warriors, for the future of our state – a safe and peaceful future.

[Not Your Average Liberal @NotAvgLiberal]

For the thousands of National Guard Troops preparing to deploy in U.S. cities on Trumps command…

Listen up, pay attention.

John Bolton: “The historical verdict on Trump will be devastating. It’s rare to see one person being so destructive. He’s more like a vandal warlord than a constructive president. That’s what history will judge him on very severely.”

[Democratic Wins Media @DemocraticWins]

BREAKING: In a historic announcement, Governor Wes Moore just announced he is considering redrawing Maryland’s Congressional maps to fight back against Texas Republicans’ gerrymandering. Let’s go, Wes!

True story.

[Democratic Wins Media @DemocraticWins]

BREAKING: Jessica Tarlov just exposed the fact that 40% of Donald Trump’s wealth has been accumulated while he was President. If that’s not corruption, I don’t know what is.
