  1. Bodega Cats Make New Yorkers' Hearts Purr - too bad that they can get the owners fined! 13 pictures, too~ Marsh-mellow is pictured twice(!) super cute #BodegaCats Some of the pics are of cats in hardware or weed stores, where they are legal; it's where food is sold that they don't belong.

  2. Does this sound ambiguous to you?

    “Federal law #prohibits political #campaign or #election-#related activities within Army National Military Cemeteries, to include photographers, content creators or any other persons attending for purposes, or in direct support of a partisan political candidate’s campaign.”

    Arlington National Cemetery officials have confirmed that there was a physical and verbal altercation between campaign staff and a cemetery official on Monday, when they tried to enforce federal law and prevent Trump’s staff from accessing Section 60, where casualties from the Global War on Terror are buried.

    But instead of apologizing, Trump’s doing what he always does
    — doubling down on their degradation of the fallen, of hallowed ground.

    This is as bad as it gets.
    This should be a NATIONAL NEWS STORY.

    That means it’s up to us to spread the word.

  3. @GottaLaff All this goes back to the #ReligiousFreedomRestorationAct which is blatantly #unconstitutional, a #law cannot modify the #constitution which still directly #prohibits the #establishment of #religion which is exactly what happened after the #RFRA was passed.

    It also violates #LGBTQ People's right to #EqualProtection You cannot allow any group to discriminate under law targeting any american citizen.

    *
    #NewYork #Governor #KathyHochul #signed a #bill into #law on Sunday that #designates the #state as a #SafeHaven for #transgender #youth, #families, and #HealthCare #providers.
    * The bill
    #prohibits state and #local #LawEnforcement from #cooperating with #investigations into families who seek #GenderAffirming #care for their #trans #children.
    * It also
    #protects the #health #information of transgender people who seek care in New York, and it #prohibits #discrimination against transgender people in #employment, #housing, and #public #accommodations.
    * The bill was passed in response to a record number of anti-LGBTQ+ bills being introduced nationwide.
    Hochul said that the bill "sends a clear message that New York is a place where everyone is welcome, regardless of their gender identity."*
    * The bill was passed by the New York State
    #Assembly and #Senate with #overwhelming #bipartisan #support.
    * It is the first bill of its kind in the United States.
    * The bill is being hailed by LGBTQ+ advocates as a major victory.

  9. Biden’s order against commercial spyware is ‘upsetting the market’ 👈👏

    President #Biden’s recent #executive #order targeting the use of commercial spyware poses a serious threat to the digital surveillance industry, experts say, as some companies weigh the impact that the decision will have on their businesses.

    The order, which was released last month, #prohibits all U.S. #federal #agencies from #using or #buying #commercial #spyware that could pose a national security risk or target U.S. personnel

    It specifically bans the use of commercial spyware that a foreign government or foreign person used to try to access government electronic devices.

    It also bans spyware that uses data obtained without authorization from the government, intends to disclose nonpublic information about the government and activities, or is under effective control by a foreign government.

    James Lewis, a senior vice president and director with the strategic technologies program at the Center for Strategic and International Studies, said the order is “upsetting the market” as some spyware makers have voiced their concerns about the impact of Biden’s action on the industry.

    “Some of them have told me that they’re not sure they’re going to be able to stay in business,” Lewis said 😎
