🗣 Abortion rights backers rally in anger over post-Roe future
Abortion rights supporters demonstrating at hundreds of marches and rallies Saturday expressed their outrage that the Supreme Court appears prepared to scrap the constitutional right to abortion that has endured for nearly a half-century.
Incensed after a leaked draft opinion suggested the court’s conservative majority would overturn the landmark Roe v. Wade ruling, activists spoke of the need to mobilize quickly because Republican-led states are poised to enact tighter restrictions.
The mood was one of anger and defiance, three days after the Senate failed to muster enough votes to codify Roe v. Wade.

🤬 Melania Trump has accused Vogue's editor-in-chief Anna Wintour of bias, as the fashion magazine never putting her on its cover back when Melania was first lady.
🗣 "They're biased and they have likes and dislikes, and it's so obvious," Melania told Fox News in her first interview after leaving the White House. "And I think American people and everyone sees it. It was their decision, and I have much more important things to do — and I did in the White House — than being on the cover of Vogue."

😱 Neil Patrick Harris has yet again faced a wave of backlash after a photo of his 2011 Halloween meat platter, dubbed "Amy Winehouse corpse", resurfaced online.
The platter, which was initially thought to be a cake, graphically resembled a rotten corpse with Winehouse's signature hairstyle and tattoos.

According to reports, the platter consisted of “beef ribs, pulled pork, [and] chicken sausage in a spicy BBQ sauce".
