Gov. Wes Moore (D-MD) says he was uninvited from a bipartisan White House dinner for governors "As the nation’s only Black governor, I can’t ignore that being singled out for exclusion from this bipartisan tradition carries an added weight — whether that was the intent or not"

A small number of elected officials representing Boston have been completely AWOL when it comes to standing up to ICE on behalf of immigrants. One Southie official found his voice in January 2026, only a few weeks ago, during an election year. He’s still finding time to undermine Wu.

And ICE lied and said he intentionally hit his head against a wall. www.huffpost.com/entry/immigr...

BREAKING: The Epstein survivors are releasing this ad on this Super Bowl Sunday to send the message that they will not “move on” from the largest sex trafficking scandal in the world. #standwithsurvivors

Snowing today, cold temps, people heated up about Citizens Bank giving loans to build ICE prisons. 50 people, lots are new. Support #democracy and community, not abductions! @wethepeopledissent.bsky.social @indivisible.org #boycottcitizens

Another 50 people protesting Citizens Bank support of ICE prisons. 20 degrees and while it’s snowing. @wethepeopledissent.bsky.social @indivisible.org #boycottcitizens

40 people out peacefully in 10 degrees to protest Citizens Bank funding of detention sites! @indivisible.org @wethepeopledissent.bsky.social

Cold outside but the crowd inside warmed up listening to @patrickroath.bsky.social answer questions about MA-08 race & issues. Hoped to hear from Lynch too. Great collaboration of @indivisible.org & @progressivemass.bsky.social groups across the district.

1. ICE must leave Minneapolis. 2. Congress should not fund this version of ICE - that is seeking confirmation, chaos and dystopia.

Today I was Kidnapped By ICE - Dawokefarmer

Photo by Pierre Lavie. Yes this is me. And I threw my Leica. It landed on the bass plate with hardly a scratch. Another Photographer grabbed it along with my phone and I was able to track him later. I was held face down tear gas deployed right in front of me and pepper sprayed directly into the eye.

Thanks for joining us and bringing some fire!

Voters showed their interest in this race is high! Thanks for bringing your passion and policy ideas.

Reports and videos show ICE agents asking American citizens whether they’ve “learned their lesson over the last few days” are deeply troubling. Language like this implies intent and raises serious questions about premeditation and mindset on the scene.

#ICEOutforGood Newton MA. Both sides of Centre, Beacon, and all islands. 570 people by my count. Fired up for democracy & against autocrats & secret police. Standing with Minneapolis & Portland!

Trump can't manage the American economy and now he says he’ll run Venezuela and its oil infrastructure? We’ve seen what happens when we destabilize countries on behalf of American fossil fuel CEOs—they profit, service members die, and regions collapse. We cannot let this stand.

Neither rain, nor snow, nor temps in the teens can keep these defenders of democracy from showing up and standing out 11a-12p every Sat. at 840 Providence Hwy #Dedham on the #Boston line. #TeslaTakedown #NoTrillionaires #NoKings @visibilitybrigade.bsky.social

Because of a state law, residential property owners in Boston are projected to face a 13% tax spike next year. Meanwhile, corporations will pay their lowest share of property taxes in 43 years. I’m hosting an AMA on Reddit about our plan to protect homeowners and deliver residential tax relief.

Mom’s for Liberty is now 0-59 in contested school board races since 2023.

True #democracy demonstration: people speaking out, building community, signing up for tasks & events, 3 elected officials & 2 new candidates trying to earn votes. That is what democracy looks like! Peaceful, creative, passionate, patriotic, ready to be as persistent as needed. #NoKingsWestRoxbury

Are we boycotting TX yet? Solidarity with the good people of Portland and Chicago!

Republicans are holding health care hostage to pay for tax cuts to billionaires. Unacceptable.

#Boston voters, have you met Marvin Mathelier yet? @marvinforboston.bsky.social #bospoli Our members chose him for our 4th City Council At-Large endorsement for lots of reasons. Just look!

It’s Boston vs. the billionaires, and I’m with Boston.

Wow, great interview with Philadelphia D.A. Larry Krasner about being ready to prosecute invaders who commit crimes. Blue city mayors, take note! www.youtube.com/watch?v=uMtK...

Congresswoman Ayanna Pressley just spoke the TRUTH on @msnbc.com about sex trafficking, Trump’s current victimization of the Epstein victims, & Oversight steps. @pressley.house.gov

Standing up for #Boston today against federal lies, threats, inhumane treatment & overreach, it was striking who was absent: Ed Flynn, Erin Murphy. The rest of Boston City Council showed courage & solidarity. #bospoli

Boston Mayor Michelle Wu: “Under the Trump administration, groceries are less affordable, housing is harder to build, cures for cancer are farther away, and good news on our economy has been as hard to find as the Epstein list.”

Boston Mayor Michelle Wu: “Silence in the face of oppression is not an option. The U.S. Attorney General asked for a response by today. So here it is…Stop attacking our cities to hide your administration's failures.”

Last week, Boston received a letter from AG Bondi threatening to prosecute officials and withhold funds unless we cooperate with carrying out mass deportations. The US Attorney General asked for a response by today, so here it is: stop attacking our cities to hide your administration’s failures.

What a moment to remind ourselves and others to be brave! If you're in or near southwest Boston on Friday afternoon, join in the visibility. #democracy #BeBraveDay www.mobilize.us/progressivew...

Businesses small and large are being forced to raise prices to survive. Obliteration Day and reckless tariffs aren’t just a burden on businesses. It’s an all-out assault on the American people. www.nytimes.com/2025/08/02/b...

We're endorsing three candidates so far for Boston City Council At-Large. The 4th will go to either Marvin Mathelier or Alexandra Valdez. #bospoli Three endorsements: Ruthzee Louijeune @ruthzee.bsky.social Julia Mejia @juliaforboston.bsky.social Henry Santana @clrhenrysantana.bsky.social

Happy to support effective, creative, caring leaders for #Boston @wutrain.bsky.social @ruthzee.bsky.social @juliaforboston.bsky.social @clrhenrysantana.bsky.social @ben4district6.bsky.social

Went to a #TeslaTakedown protest today w/ a few dozen protesters, lots of honks & thumbs up. A 30-something man in a truck who was the only vocal negative driver yelled, "Trump is your daddy! Trump is your daddy!" Really? Are you sure you want to push people to think about #Epstein even more??

Trump was impeached, twice. Considering posting this every day until the Smithsonian corrects its exhibit. Feel free to join me.

I don’t like it when @lawrenceodonnell.msnbc.com is on vacation. Well deserved for him. Harder to make it through the week for me.

We need to lift up the voices of the Trump-Epstein victims. This video from Tim Miller of The Bulwark does exactly that: www.youtube.com/watch?v=jiPP... Release the files. Investigate the money trail. Lift up the victims. Call out the cover-up.

Happy to see @pressley.house.gov aide here to testify on the damage of book bans.

Stop the #BookBans bill hearing in MA State house - full house, standing room only remains. #democracy needs freedom to read, learn, discover & capacity to serve on library & school boards without coordinated attacks.

We’ll be rallying at the Moakley Courthouse in Boston today from noon to 2:30 and can’t wait to see MA-based Harvard alums there, as well as faculty and students, many representing their unions. Here’s some background on today’s hearing from The NY Times. www.nytimes.com/2025/07/21/u...

@wbur.org article clarifies differences between @wutrain.bsky.social and Kraft on housing. Overall theme: proactive policies versus trickle-down theories. www.wbur.org/news/2025/07...

#GoodTrouble Adams Park, Roslindale. “The people of Boston have shown repeatedly- we expect democracy, respect the Constitution and are willing to stand up for both.” Resolution read by Councilors @ben4district6.bsky.social @enriquepepen.bsky.social @brianworrell.bsky.social @prowroxroz.bsky.social

CBS canceled Colbert’s show just THREE DAYS after Colbert called out CBS parent company Paramount for its $16M settlement with Trump – a deal that looks like bribery. America deserves to know if his show was canceled for political reasons. Watch and share his message.
