1. A little background about "Cats" for non-NYC DU-ers:

John Catsimatidis has a sour outlook towards NYC politics. For one thing, he's a failed candidate for NYC mayor, twice I believe. He couldn't even win the primaries. For another thing, he owns Red Apple Radio which includes RW radio station, WABC, which he wants to be regarded as a FOX station. And for another thing, Cats wants to be regarded as a power broker. TSF only seems to appear on WABC. Cats is invited to Marl-A-Lago. And lastly, Cats and all the hosts of his talk radio shows hated and condemned current mayor Eric Adams -- until TSF pardoned him. Now Adams is invited on the shows; there's less criticism of him. Oh, and BTW, Cats has been reduced to making public service announcements on air, begging for commercial advertising as business seem to eschew the RW format as a way to garner more customers.

And he looks like a Hobbit.
