I hope some newspapers use a crop where you can easily read the sign.

IT'S OFFICIAL: Connecticut, Maine, Massachusetts, New Jersey, New York State, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island and New York City have formed the Northeast Public Health Collaborative. The collaborative will issue their own vaccine recommendations and coordinate public health efforts.

My son was 1 when leaders gathered in Paris & pledged to keep warming BELOW 1.5C. He’s now 11, & we’re spending our second year ABOVE 1.5C. They’ve doomed all our children because preserving a suicidal economy is more important. We. Should. Be. Furious.

ICE is increasing its presence in Massachusetts. Here's a great resource to help keep communities safe: www.lucemass.org

Update on this from the Boston Globe. This is great news!

Ouch SCOTUS

Very good.

Blue states should find a way to hire the noble scientists from CDC and NIH and give them the chance to protect the public health where it is valued. The science doesn't just go away - we just need to give it a respected home.

"Twenty-three Democratic attorneys general now gather on near-daily Zoom calls at 8 AM Pacific, which means the East Coast officials are already on their third coffee. They divide responsibilities and share templates for lawsuits they’ve been drafting since last spring."

Germany gets 60% of its power from renewables and is shutting down its coal plants. No blackouts. No high bills. Every right wing lie about renewables has been proven false.

"Never before has [the supreme court] entertained such challenges from the president, and never before has it decided them so flippantly." www.theguardian.com/us-news/ng-i...

Donald Trump isn't going to leave willingly or peacefully. Republicans are gearing up for martial law. You all aren't paying attention.

Pathetic. Democratic leaders and the establishment STILL haven't learned. They STILL haven't evolved on this issue. Shameful. www.politico.com/news/2025/08...

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.

The Dorchester Food Co-op is struggling to keep up cash reserves right now. Shop there if you can, and/or donate please #boston #food www.dorchesterfoodcoop.com/news/urgent-...

As federal institutions are deliberately made to crumble, we will need more regional and state-to-state cooperation like this. #saveourscience www.bostonglobe.com/2025/08/13/m...

"If anyone thought last January that our democratic system could withstand Trump 2.0, that the courts and political opposition would be strong enough to hold him in check, they’re quickly learning how wrongheaded they were."

exactly right www.motherjones.com/politics/202...

Spot on, @andycraig.bsky.social .

The challenges we now face must be met by a bold progressive populist movement that strengthens democracy and shakes up the system. We can’t simply return to the path we were on before Trump. We cannot accept the status quo of Big Money dominating our politics and economy.

Perhaps #NERevs might celebrate a national championship in New England - see @vermontgreenfc.bsky.social. And perhaps some of their enthusiasm, positive play, and good leadership will rub off. 🤞

Motherfucking wind farms…

Statement from the Midnight Riders #RidersOverHere #NERevs

The media assumes Trump is full of shit The markets assume Trump is full of shit Voters assume Trump is full of shit But what if they're wrong & we're speeding toward failed state territory? Even optimistically we're at the mercy of an aspiring autocrat who's unhinged & fixated on hurting people

I agree with this. The problem is that this is in fact the country that the elites want and also regular people haven't built enough power to overthrow the current order. The elites support fascism.

Marco Rubio’s State Department ordered ICE to arrest and deport people for thought crimes. Happy to see AAUP fighting back and revealing the truth.

Watching PBS last night I was reminded that one of the primary virtues in a political leader is decency. This is why people are drawn to municipal leaders like Zohran Mamdani and Michelle Wu. They reject the politics of division, polarization & negativity.

Nicely done, Paula. #BostonJuly4

US Army chorus singing "You'll Be Back" on the Esplanade? Love Hamilton, but that is an awfully tone deaf choice IMHO.

If you’re an elected Democrat (rightly) complaining about the GOP kicking 17 million people off of Medicaid, now is a good and credible time to critique the entire broken work-based non-universal US healthcare system. Now is the time to call for universal healthcare, for Medicare for All.

There’s something SERIOUSLY WRONG with a political system like this.

this isn't hyperbole or caricature! It's a straightforwad, accurate characterization of what he said.

Blue states need to immediately pass a law directing state law enforcement officers to detain anyone performing an arrest or detention in public while masked or failing to visibly display identifying credentials, for the purpose of protecting public safety. And yes, they can do so.

It's up to us to make sure everyone knows they won't feel the bad stuff for a couple years, specifically because Republicans planned it that way so people will think the bill was good and vote for them again. Warn people it's coming.

Lefties like me have a lifetime of warning you how shit things are going to get if we do certain things. It comes true every single time, also it’s worse than even we imagined. How many times? Ever going to listen?

On behalf of Americans who respect and welcome you... Happy #Canada 🇨🇦 Day!

This is amazing, let’s go! Blue states are fighting back against Trump’s threats to withhold funding by introducing bills that give the federal government a taste of its own medicine.

Republicans are killing wind and solar while giving new tax breaks for coal. Our utility bills will go up, pollution will increase, and our climate will be compromised. Now is the time to make your voices heard.

whole lot of our country was basically a handshake agreement

A reminder for those a bit too used to looking solely at American politics: most Democratic talking points are considered conservative in many other places around the world. It's time to bring us into the 21st century. #YankeeNationalParty #YNP #democrats #Mamdani

Sen. Bernie Sanders on Zohran Mamdani: "Will the Democratic leadership learn from his campaign? I doubt it. I think they would rather go down with the Titanic than give up the fact that they are captains of the boat."

Zohran Mamdani winning the Democratic primary in New York is great news but you must protect him and fight for him because the campaign against him (even from within the Democratic Party) will be massive.

Perfectly expressed.

Six former CDC vaccine chairs are sounding the alarm—and we better listen. The U.S. is on the brink of losing access to life-saving immunizations. When science is attacked and trust is eroded, lives will be lost. This is not a drill. This is a national emergency.

The Trump administration is kidnapping and trying to deport American citizens who look “foreign.” No warrant. No due process. No rights. Americans voted for cheaper eggs, not for a night of broken glass. #MAGAKidnappers
