#caturday meeting

Mamdani got into office and instantly: • Froze rent for 2 million New Yorkers • Cut subway fares in half for low-income riders • Fully funded NYC parks • Added $680M for public schools • Launched free child care for 2-year-olds If establishment politicians actually wanted to help you, they could.

Resign. Resign. Resign. Have some basic decency: resign. apnews.com/article/mili...

Here’s a thought for James Comer. There IS a First Lady who has had a relationship with Jeffrey Epstein. And it’s not Hillary Clinton. It might be worthwhile for Comer to subpoena the First Lady who actually knows Epstein. You know, just to see what she knows.

AI observation from Warren Buffet. Warren Buffett watched an AI-generated video of himself, and it was so realistic that it could fool his own family. “How do you put the genie back in the bottle?…That’s the same problem we have with nuclear weapons." AI, is a permanent, unpredictable force.

"We can have democracy in this country, or we can have great wealth concentrated in the hands of a few, but we can't have both." –Justice Louis Brandeis Words spoken many years ago that are just as relevant today. We must continue the fight to get big money out of politics.

Happy #caturday from Betsy!

A backgrounder is someone who conducts background checks.

Hey, Propaganda Barbie: We aren’t moving on from people trafficking 10-year-old children and this administration covering it up. Ever.

What? That can't be right. Haven't they seen the president's plans for his special golden ballroom?

Zorro says happy #caturday

Mango’s first ‘snow’! #caturday

Hey NRA, are you good with this? THANK YOU FOR YOUR ATTENTION TO THIS MATTER.

Fall finally hit us in December! Happy #caturday !

Millions of workers are toiling away from their families this holiday weekend. So thank the workers who serve you. Appreciate the workers who care for you. Respect the workers who pick up your trash. Salute the workers who get you your mail. Pay all workers a living wage.

Bash: "Do you believe if there was a second strike to eliminate any survivors that it constitutes a war crime?" Mark Kelly: "It seems to." Bash: "If you received that order, would you have carried it out?" Mark Kelly: "No…Going after survivors in the water is unlawful."

Mark Kelly: "This president, when he says things like 'third world countries,' what is he really saying? I think what he's saying is he doesn't want brown people in our country. And that's disturbing. It's un-American."

Walmart and McDonald’s are among the top employers of workers who rely on food stamps. McDonald's CEO raked in $18.2M last year — over 1,000x the company's median employee pay. Walmart's CEO pocketed $27.4M — 930x the company's median employee pay. See the problem?

The era we are living in offers too many illustrations of greed, narcissism, and hatefulness. But I still believe we can recommit ourselves to serving the common good of all Americans. [Artwork by Jennifer Bloomer]

Fun happens!

pre #caturday #zorro Yes, I have several secrets!

#caturday Turns out, Mango Deliscio is a south paw!

Pre- #caturday. #birdwatchers New bird at the birdbath. Any idea what it is? I like to call him Mango Terrifico!

New bird at the water today.

Fox Business credulously reports that Saudi Arabia is pushing its investment into the US "to $1 trillion." The entire size of the Saudi economy is $1 trillion. How stupid are these people and/or how stupid do they think their viewers are?

Marjorie Taylor Greene has been hated by the left for years and never feared for her life. She’s been hated by the right for two days and had to hire security.

tl;dr: The United States House of Representatives has unanimously passed a bipartisan resolution effectively declaring Senator Lindsey Graham to be a ridiculous twit

Today, we remember and honor our trans siblings lost to violence. We lift up their legacies by continuing the work to stem the tides of hatred, and create a world in which all trans people can survive and thrive.

Daily show not holding back

It looks like Lindsey Halligan misled a grand jury, prosecutorial conduct equivalent to committing perjury, in order to manufacture an indictment against James Comey for… wait for it… perjury.

This PSA to active Military Dems put out: bsky.app/profile/slot...

This is what he is calling "seditious behavior"

Talking about sedition…

@alsobrooks.senate.gov It would be a great idea for a filibuster to read “Nobody’s Girl” - the book by one of Epstein’s victims - on the floor of the Senate and keep shaming the Republicans for refusing to release the Epstein files.

Obama: As for the president, he has been focused on critical issues like paving over the rose garden so folks don't get mud on their shoes and gold plating the Oval Office and building a ballroom… If you can't visit a doctor, don't worry. He will save you a dance.

What he said: 💯 🎯

Newsom: I cannot wait for all the punditry. Historic victories all across the United States of America. Proposition 50 winning by double digits. A new governor of New Jersey, a new governor in Virginia. I’ll end as I began: thank you for giving a damn.

And yet, the receipts remained. Proof of every choice. Every upgrade. Every silence. In the end, it wasn’t AI that destroyed humanity. It was the humans, voting with their greed, their wallets, and their unexamined faith in progress. The machines simply followed instructions. <end> kim&AI
