Ed Flynn continues to sound more and more like Donald Trump with every tweet.
Residents,workers & tourists continue to tell me they no longer feel safe in Downtown Crossing & Boston Common. With several permitted events already scheduled in Boston Common, I’m recommending these events not take place. Many parts of Boston Common are no longer safe! #bospoli
There will be refreshments and giveaways!!🧃✨ Register now: bit.ly/Neighborhood-P…
I'll never regret knocking thousands of doors for this with all the #mapoli homies.
Massachusetts state officials said Monday that the voter-approved surtax on high earners has generated more than $1.8 billion in revenue this fiscal year — with still three months left to go — blowing past state projections bostonglobe.com/2024/05/20/met… via @BostonGlobe

Let’s remember the Nazi’s who utilized the Band Stand at the Boston Common had more protection by the police than peaceful protestors who set up tents in an alleyway that serves as 1 of 3 public entrances to a building.
Mayor Michelle Wu and Police Commissioner Michael Cox made the call to remove the pro-Palestinian tent encampment at Emerson College together, the mayor’s office said amid pushback on the removal of tents and the arrests of more than 100 protestors. trib.al/duKjPal
Correction: MOST groups Murphy claimed endorsement from Saturday HAVEN’T ENDORSED her for SJC Clerk & some are legally PROHIBITED FROM ENDORSING anyone in any election. Erin Murphy isn’t just perilously unqualified for this complex responsibility—she’s perilously unfit. #bospoli
Morning, Mass. ☁️ Add tax revenue troubles to the headaches facing Boston Mayor Wu. Plus: — Erin Murphy touts union support for SJC clerk bid, but some of the groups haven’t endorsed her this race — Bill Delahunt tributes #mapoli #bospoli w/@KellyGarrity3 politi.co/4ai4Gcq
Why are Boston's unions endorsing @ErinforBoston, a city councilor w/ no law degree, paralegal training, or common sense, for Mass. Supreme Judicial Court clerk for Suffolk County? This nonsense has former Labor Sec'y @MartyJWalsh's fingerprints all over it. #bospoli #mapoli
After yrs in #mapoli/#bospoli, I know what a big deal it is when unions let you use their logo on campaign comms. Haven’t seen it on your TLs, so could: @GBLCBoston @Teamsters25 @MWPC @AFSCME93 @SEIU888 @32BJSEIU @GBREB Pls share why you’re endorsing Erin Murphy for SJC Clerk?
If, as it seems, Murphy didn’t get most endorsements she listed in emails/press releases today, it shows how little respect she has for unions. If she used their logos w/out permission, it’s not just unethical—it’s illegal. A qualified SJC Clerk would know that. #bospoli #mapoli

Unacceptable. We must denounce Islamophobia, antisemitism, & violence in all its forms, and protect our faith houses, marginalized communities, & families made vulnerable in this moment.
The vile defacement of the Palestinian Cultural Center for Peace and Boston Islamic Seminary in an apparent #hatecrime yesterday is an affront to all who work towards peace and understanding.
My statement on the continuing violence in Israel and Gaza.
Votes for tool that criminalizes Black People by saying it’ll stop Nazi’s? Nazi’s just made Liz Breadon vote to criminalize being Black in Boston?
Today I voted yes on an appropriation to fund data analysis and intelligence gathering of the Boston Regional Intelligence Center. I look forward to the Council's partnering with Commissioner Cox to fully fund necessary intelligence work and enact further reforms.
If I were a white City Councilor, and all of the Black and Brown Councilors were voting against something, and I was planning to vote for it, I would want to do some deep reflection about what they are seeing that I'm missing. #bospoli
Here’s what Breadon told the ACLU when she first ran for office:
Councilor Breadon flipped positions on funding BRIC which will disparage and target communities of color across the city of Boston. This will negatively impact the lives of so many Bostonians and we have Councilor Breadon to thank.
In 2019, Councilor Breadon told the ACLU that she wanted to abolish BRIC. She even tweeted about it a year later. Today, she voted to give it more money.
11 people.
Just 11 adults are responsible for 60% of requests of ban books from school libraries nationwide, according to a Washington Post analysis of the 2021-2022 school year. washingtonpost.com/education/2023…
Wu’s proposed plan to crack down on homeless encampments at Mass. and Cass faced heated resistance during a marathon Boston City Council hearing — an eight-hour debate that centered around the efficacy of police enforcement in the area. wgbh.org/news/local/202… @GBHNews
during a city council hearing on Mass and Cass, BPD commissioner Michael Cox says crime numbers are lower now, but he believes incidents are underreported. BPD incident reports and city data do not show an uptick in crime or people congregating.
The House has voted to send the wide-ranging tax package to the Senate, which is in formal session tomorrow. Then, it's off to @MassGovernor's desk. Only no vote came from progressive Cambridge Rep @MikeConnollyMA Bill details here: bostonglobe.com/2023/09/26/met… #mapoli
I'm consistently embarrassed by how little Massachusetts does with its Democratic trifecta. We could be a national example for why it's worth winning power to make people's lives better. Instead we're giving gifts to the rich and our trains are a joke.
Tracks that opened for passenger service to Union Square in March 2022 and to Medford in December — and were shut down for repairs in recent months — are now so defective, the @MBTA says, that trains are moving slower than many people walk. bostonglobe.com/2023/09/26/met… via @taydolven
🧵More 90s history: In 1994, bad news came for people across MA as rent control was BANNED statewide.🚫In a statewide ballot Q, Cambridge, Boston & Brookline, the cities/towns that actually HAD rent control voted to keep it, but other towns voted to ban in a narrow 51%-49% vote:
