The parents of four teenagers who died by suicide are suing Meta, TikTok, Snapchat, and YouTube. They claim the platforms caused “years of escalating harms” leading to their deaths. The lawsuit was filed Thursday in Delaware. The Social Media Victims Law Center represents the families from Texas, North Carolina, Minnesota, and Tennessee. The teens reportedly suffered from social media addiction, sleep deprivation, depression, and anxiety. The complaint alleges the companies knew they were causing harm. Meta, YouTube, TikTok, and Snap face numerous lawsuits over harms to minors.

New York officials have sued prediction market platform Kalshi for potentially billions of dollars, calling it an “illegal, unlicensed gambling operation” as the state seeks to halt its operations and force the company to forfeit its profits. New York joins a growing number of states filing lawsuits against Kalshi and other companies in a dispute with President Donald Trump’s administration over who regulates the fast-growing prediction market. New York's lawsuit was filed Friday in state Supreme Court in Manhattan. Kalshi and other platforms argue they are federally licensed and regulated, and states have no authority to govern them.

A woman deported to Mexico despite having legal permission to remain in the U.S. has filed suit against the federal government. U.S. officials notified her they intend to terminate her permission due to what it called “unauthorized travel” stemming from her deportation. Thirty-four-year-old Jessica Treviño is asking a federal judge to intervene. Treviño was detained in December by immigration agents in Texas and deported. After arriving in the U.S. at age 7, Treviño received permission at age 20 to remain under the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals program. But authorities recently advised her DACA status would be terminated for “unauthorized travel” around the day she was deported. The Department of Homeland Security says she knowingly accepted voluntary departure.

The New Mexico attorney general is asking a judge to prevent the state child welfare agency from removing children from the U.S., absent a court order. The request is part of a civil lawsuit Raúl Torrez filed this week against New Mexico's Children, Youth and Families Department. Torrez's office alleges that the department drove a 15-year-old U.S. citizen to the Mexican border and instructed him to cross the bridge alone to find his estranged mother, a Mexican national arrested on drug charges and deported earlier this year. The department says the child is safe. It also says it's reviewing the complaint and will respond in court.

President Donald Trump says he may withdraw and delay Todd Blanche’s nomination as attorney general until Republican senators who are seeking concessions from the top prosecutor leave office. Trump doubled down Thursday on choosing his former personal lawyer as the nation’s top lawman, calling him “a STAR” and saying he will keep him in the role as acting attorney general until Republican Sens. John Cornyn of Texas and Thom Tillis of North Carolina leave office next year. Cornyn and Tillis have sought additional assurances in writing that the Justice Department will not revive an “Anti-Weaponization Fund” created to resolve Trump’s lawsuit against the Internal Revenue Service.
