O'Hara: "There's folks that are masked, they may be kidnapping people. We have had those reports. The community should know that if you see something like that, you should call 911. Let's not forget -- we very recently had tragedy in this state by someone who was purporting to be law enforcement."

My bipartisan IRS MATH Act with Senator Bill Cassidy is now law.

Now, if you mess up your taxes, the IRS has to tell you where you made a mistake and how to fix it.

No more spending a fortune on lawyers or hours to find errors.

That means fewer headaches and more money in your pocket.

Wow had to delete my post where I was *not looking to find an illustrator, bc someone emailed me saying thanks for *commissioning them* to do my cover art.

How bizarre! Does that actually work for people? 🤯 #authorsky

For real. I’d like to do lots of shopping local, eating at cute restaurants, grabbing a coffee from the local coffee shop…. But the truth is, I’m really not spending a lot of extra money at all. Most of my dollars are accounted for, and I’m just glad I have enough of them to pay my bills.
Around 70% of the U.S. economy depends on consumer spending. As wealth concentrates in the richest 10%, the rest of America can’t afford to buy enough to keep the economy running. This is a huge problem — and even America’s most powerful CEOs are starting to sound the alarm.
Our Economy Is in Danger. Here’s Why

Went to the gym this morning and did some errands while the kids were at my mom’s setting up the manger. Grateful for “the village” — most of which is my mom! #gymsky #punk

Happy Thanksgiving!

Drafted my family into our first Turkey Trot, which displeased the younger crowd. 🤪 Went for my own jog when we got home!

Grateful for health, family, and friends. Nothing in life is guaranteed. 🙏

Omg @stephaniesb.bsky.social @maccagan.bsky.social I called these people mammogram billing place today and they said to disregard the bills and that they were going to bill my insurance! So why are you sending me these?

So I asked about the $500 I already sent them last month and they said…
All right, I need the money friends to weigh in…. Had to get 2nd mammo, not covered since I hadn’t met deductible. Ok fine, paid $504. Check was cashed.

Today I got TWO bills for this same mammo, total over $1K! I will call tmo but is there anything in particular I should say?? Aside from…

Two of my favorite #Thanksgiving readalouds that aren’t actually Thanksgiving books!

Seriously I am a specials teacher. I would be thrilled to get a chapstick. 😆🤷🏻‍♀️
👍👍

My husband and I put a cost limit for each other. And the budget for the rest of my fam is smaller overall. Maybe no cards. 🤷🏻‍♀️ At least not the printed ones. Teachers are getting chapstick. There is just too much stuff this year.

I basically cut my Christmas budget in half this year. HBU?

BREAKING: AOC on MTG retiring:

"She's carefully timing her departure just 1-2 days after her pension kicks in and after making millions of dollars insider trading stocks for weapons manufacturers and others while in office."

Universal healthcare tomorrow if we prioritized people over pharmaceutical profits and insurance company shareholders. Every other developed nation manages it. We choose not to because both parties are bought by the healthcare industry. It's not about affordability it's about who owns Congress.

Yeah. Why are we not impeaching him immediately?
Today, the president of the United States said that multiple US senators should be put to death for treason and articles of impeachment have not been filed yet. This country is cooked. Done. Finished.

On this Trans Day of Remembrance, we remember the bright and courageous trans people whose lives were stolen by hatred. Their absence is felt across our city.

We will honor them by building a New York where every trans person can live safely, fully and freely.

President Zelenskyy came to the White House, looking for help from his longstanding ally.

He was ambushed, humiliated and berated for not being grateful enough.

Prince Bone Saw bin 9/11 came to the White House, for the first time since he ordered the murder of Jamal Khashoggi.

He was revered.

You might not have caught what just happened on the Senate floor, but the Senate just “deemed as passed” the Epstein resolution.

That means as soon as it arrives from the House, it automatically passes the Senate (with no amendments) and heads to the President’s desk.

Wow.
