Never doubt the strength behind thoughtful, determined, and yes, kind, leadership @mayorwu.boston.gov delivers time after time.

Should SCOTUS revisit decisions negated or weakening settled law since 1935, turning our once great nation of laws more akin to wild west lawlessness. There is nothing ahead to tame the effects, when legal precedent is no longer recognized.

In his own words - if the government shuts down, he is to blame. Please be sure to share this with Republicans. #TrumpShutdown #ResistFascism #Pinks

Anger at injustice is not the same as the escalation of political violence we've seen from Mr. Trump's avarice for wealth, adoration, and most of all power.

Earlier this week, Cruz said that Carr “threatens explicitly." '"And I got to say he threatens it, he says, ‘We can do this the easy way, but we can do this the hard way.’ "'That’s right out of a mafioso coming into a bar going, ‘Nice bar you have here. It’d be a shame if something happened to it.'”

Thankfully some people have read the Bill of Rights.

Here we go, my friends. Right straight past freedom of the press to all out fascism ... for those who've expressed that fear out loud prior to this ... you were correct. www.nytimes.com/live/2025/09...

'Mr. Trump denied statistical reality last week when he was asked whether he might send federal forces into high-crime cities in Republican-led states. “Sure,” he said, “but there aren’t that many.”' www.nytimes.com/2025/09/01/u...

“We wanted cheaper groceries and we got tanks in our streets. We wanted affordable health care. We got 16 million Americans who are about to be kicked off their coverage. We wanted jobs you could raise a family on. But that’s not what we got.”

Trump doesn't follow the menacing made-for-Fox News script he’s written for his masked ICE storm troopers, but on this Labor Day workers are under assault from Trump and the GOP on a level nearly comparable to what we are seeing with undocumented migrants. #LaborDay #BlueWave #BlueCrew

At last night's vigil. I met a young family, 6-month-old Nora cradled by her mom in a sling, dad's arm draped around both. We listened to speakers promise to do better. Full-on ban on assault weapons ... there are responsible gun owners. I hope they will join us in loving children more than guns.

"If we stop letting scam PACs rip off our voters, and stop utilizing alarmist tactics that come with diminishing returns and high churn rates, we will probably raise more money, not less, in the long-run," writes Young Democrats VP Isaac Kaufer. #Democrats 💙 www.leftofcenter.org/blog/2025/8/...

The second amendment guarantees the right to a militia to guard against federal tyranny. But if a president can use that force against its own state, against the wishes of that state, then it is no militia at all and a clear violation of the second amendment.

“The government’s 100,000 pages of Epstein files and materials dwarf the 70 odd pages of Epstein grand jury materials,” the judge wrote, accusing DOJ of "diversion." When tariffs hike prices; when Putin makes you look like a wimp; and when you cover up the Epstein files, diversion is Trump's move.

"Shouldn't you be out rounding up Democrats?" The answer is no. Americans shamefully "rounding up" people has happened before. Internment camps in WW2. Kinapped people sold and enslaved. An old lingering shame not to be repeated any way, shape or form. www.washingtonpost.com/national-sec...

Predictably, Texas Gov. Greg Abbott has instructed the Texas Rangers to arrest vacationing legislators in Illinois, NCSL legislative Summit attendees in Boston, and others occupied elsewhere. Abbott's problem? Those orders aren't enforceable outside of Texas. The guy's a lawyer he knows that.
