Mayor Mamdani and a group of children hold hands while running through red tape in a hallway.
For too long, bureaucracy kept 7 child care centers across our city empty — spaces that should have been alive with laughter instead collected dust.
We've run through that red tape. This fall, all 7 will open their doors, bringing an additional 240 free 3-K seats & real relief to working families.
Beautiful pair of furry bookends! 😻😻
Wondering why government officials keep breaking the law and getting away with it?
The Epstein class is quite wealthy and people like money.
Hope that clears things up for you.
Back to the simple natural order of things…….. not human arrogance based on destruction of our water,air, environment for profit…… for the 1%
Palantir in the NHS is linked to Mandelson
Mandelson is linked to Wes Streeting
Wes Streeting is defending Palantir’s involvement in the #NHS
Nothing to see or everything to see
Palantir must be removed from the NHS
Good. It’s easy to forget that climate change denial & shilling for fossil fuel companies provided a template for Tufton Street, Brexit & pretty much every egregious example of persuading populations to vote against their own interests. The story of Don Pearlman should be taught in kindergartens…
A golden retriever has both paws up at a bank teller’s window.
“Are you the branch manager?”
“Yes I am, how can I help you?”
“I would like two branches, please.”
“How would you like that?”
“Two big sticks, four little sticks.”
surely no army in military history has ever been laid low by disease, a famously uncommon problem among people living in enforced close quarters
Russia reports "100% control"over the Luhansk region-for the fourth time
The history of Russia's "control"over Luhansk region:
- July 2022:Shoigu had already reported "full liberation."
- June 2025:Gerasimov once again ceremoniously "captured"everything
- October 2025:Putin speaks of "almost 100%"
"This is how a regime loses. Not in one dramatic made-for-tv collapse—but via every community meeting where people show up and force the government to act."
7 ⁄ 9 More details A fresco from Pompeii depicting the foundation of Rome. Sol riding in his chariot; Mars descending from the sky to Rhea Silvia lying in the grass; Mercury shows to Venus the she-wolf suckling the twins; in the lower corners of the picture: river-god Tiberinus and water-goddess Juturna. 35–45 AD.
2778 years ago, on the 21st of April 753 BCE, according to legend, Romulus founded the city of Rome. Archaeological evidence of human occupation in the area goes back over 5000 years, with accelerating development in the early to mid 8th century BCE. #otd #history 🗃️
Robbins says that when he arrived in post, a due diligence report had been undertaken by the Cabinet Office, and the PM had announced the appointment - and [Mandelson] was already being given higher classification briefings
Robbins says there was generally dismissive attitude towards his clearance.

Vance has now seized the top seat in the Death of Expertise Hall of Fame: He has lectured the pope—the pope, the leader of a billion and a half Catholics—about being too sloppy with theology.
The queen of all vices: Pride.

Trump’s managed to do something that previous Presidents for decades have failed to do.
Unite the liberal progressive Catholic who tend to vote Democrat with the conservative traditional Catholic who tend to vote Republican (over 60%) now united against Trump.

Sky & BBC News are weaponising Epstein's victims:
How?
They (rightfully) condemn Starmer for hiring Mandelson, KNOWING he was friends with a convicted abuser.
But never mention Farage backing a convicted abuser as an MP and befriending MANY others.
Tice failed to pay £100,000 tax on profits of firms linked to Reform — story via The Sunday Times
Richard tax-cheat Tice.
And remember when Farage’s partner bought his Clacton house somehow, so he could avoid paying taxes on it?
That is all Reform UK Party Ltd exists for: money.
Boris Johnson failed vetting, yet Theresa May appointed him Foreign Secretary.
Dominic Cummings was never vetted, yet had free access to Government and Number 10.
The vetting process is self evidently farcical.
WOW: A stunning new report in the WSJ reveals that military advisers intentionally excluded Donald Trump from the command room during the recent high-stakes operation to extract a downed U.S. airman in Iran, because they feared his erratic behavior could jeopardize the mission. 1/
“You’re asking people to believe that a Prime Minister who used to be a director of public prosecutions who would regularly be grilling people accused of the most serious crimes can have the wool pulled over his eyes by a simple rearrangement of words from a senior civil servant”
Susanna Reid
A fascinating yet essential read - exposing what is actually happening with Trump (from a cognitive neuroscientist).

I have always regarded myself as reasonably techie, but it has taken me to today to realise I actively needed to turn off AI and separately disable access to all my apps individually on my Android phone (AI opt in was the default). It took me 20mins but I consider it worth it!🌷

Is Russia Weaponising the Global Helium Supply?
I went looking for a “quiet” cargo that could test the Strait of Hormuz.
I ended up asking a very different question:
Is helium being weaponised?
This sounds extreme. It might be.
But follow the logic with me.
#Helium #AI #SemiConductors
I did wonder about this line.
I was scanning through all reports and could not see anything.
Then it occurred to me. The UKMTO put the warnings out.
Does he think that this means that all the ships are UK-flagged because of this? The face I have to ask that about a USA commander in chief… 🤦♂️
As you watch the scandal over Mendelson failing clearance, consider how many people either FAILED (Dan Bongino) or just escaped (Kushner and Witkoff) clearance reviews altogether.
No idea whether Kash and his alleged drinking problem was properly reviewed. Kavanaugh was not.
