First thing to jump into my head.
This would be the fastest way to get the those file out there.
And he won't.
So he'll quietly drop the suit and declare himself victorious (probably).
Or go after Noah on an immigration technicality.

If he sues, then wouldn’t Noah’s lawyers demand that the unredacted Epstein files be released for discovery. Hmmm…Let’s see how this plays out.

The bizarre human tendency to try to dictate to another on how they should feel or process something.
I've come across it many times, from managing my chronic conditions to people telling me I MUST be perimenopausal, because they are, while my doctors are, um, no.

I still think of the author who got big mad at me at the start of this administration’s reign.
She was upset that an event was being held in X country because it could be unsafe.
I pointed out that holding global writing events in the US was also highly problematic.
She, er, disagreed.

Also, while I’m happy he’s being freed, there are so many more children still locked up that need to be released.

Getting titers checked in my part of the world is a pita and expensive.
Just getting vax’d again was easy, affordable and quick.
I had no side effects from it. Not even the arm ache I get from a tetanus booster.

If you're an adult who was vaccinated, you should get your titers run to make sure you still have immunity. Vaccination can wane and/or you may not have generated a strong immune response. That was ok when we had herd immunity but we're likely about to lose our "measles free" status.
Vaccinate your kids, you friggin nuts.

there’s been an assumption that when Dems take power again they will keep ICE funded at these ridiculous levels forever and they are now on record voting to end that
they’ll need to go much further than that but it’s a start - and I sure don’t see the politics of ICE improving between now and then

I hope @schumer.senate.gov and other democrats are not considering voting for an agency that is being used to arrest independent journalists not parroting MAGA talking points.
