A grim reminder of just how far our “norms” have fallen and how I miss conversations truly centered around political discourse — I feel they’re important to make real change, hard to do when they’re flooding the zone with chaos.
None of this is normal, it should be a wake up call, one of many.

Many Americans have seen DHS agents’ unlawful behavior firsthand in their neighborhoods and communities. @repstansbury.bsky.social is right. Nobody in America should be mistreated, harmed or killed because of the improper behavior of ICE. We will hold these agents accountable.

While Amazon touts the surveillance state enabled by its Ring cameras, remember...
Amazon's U.S. tax bill dropped by 87% in 2025, mostly thanks to Trump's tax cuts.
Meanwhile, its profits jumped by 45% to nearly $90 billion — and it announced 30,000 job cuts.

👏👏👏 Thank you, Governor! Massachusetts is closer to ending debt-based driving restrictions!
This unfair practice takes drivers licenses from people simply because they can't afford to pay fines and fees.
We urge lawmakers to take up these proposals and ensure drivers can continue to earn a living.

An unpaid toll or parking ticket shouldn't keep you from getting to work, to school or to the doctor.
My budget proposal would bring Massachusetts laws in line with other states and end license non-renewals for debts that don't relate to public safety.
