Thanks for the labor reporting and all the work you do with Payday, it's vital stuff.

It looks like the larger Boston solidarity rally might not be on the map? I only see a Socialist Alternative thing listed. There's a union-sponsored solidarity rally earlier, at 3pm. The address for the location is 8 Allstate Rd, Boston, MA 02125.

We've got a solidarity rally in Boston, if you're in the area tomorrow. 1/23/26, 3pm, South Bay Mall in Dorchester.

Ah well. Sorry you're going through this, and good luck. Did they refer you to anyone (like Transportation Oversight)? Based on what I know from similar predatory towing incidents in Allston, I'd recommend talking to an attorney if your car isn't returned soon.

You might try the CARD hotline (till 4pm) at 617-727-8400? No idea what they'll say but maybe worth a shot. www.mass.gov/info-details...

Do you remember when Buttigieg proposed a voluntary national service program along similar lines and everybody flipped out?

What are the odds they put any of the "it is our job to start a civil war" directives in writing? Low, right?

It's a necessary first step for something much larger. You're proving it can be done (and quickly). Look how the Supreme Court is handling anything to do with the Fed and tell me those at the top, in Washington, do not care about money. Labor is money. Withhold it at a large enough scale and watch.

It's a demonstration of unity, resolve + organization. General strikes are virtually impossible to pull off. A broad coalition's stopping the world on a dime, on their own dime especially, to stand in opposition to the regime is a serious show of force. A threat, even, in a manner of speaking.

Yeah. Would be good to know which Senate Dems he was referring to and maybe his source. Otherwise it might as well be Axios.

🚨BREAKING: DEMS DRAW RED LINE IN DHS APPROPS: NO FUNDING INCREASE FOR ICE. POLICY RIDERS GROWING. STORY COMING IN MIGRANT INSIDER
🚨NEWS: Senate Dems are reportedly offering ICE funding increases in exchange for body cams and de-escalation training for agents.
Body cams can be turned off. De-escalation training can be ignored.
Unclear if no masks, requiring ID badges, and no immunity is on the table.

Hawaii if you can. San Diego! Idk if you're looking for somewhere w/ a high black population, tho? I'd describe San Diego as definitely blacker than Wellesley, MA, and probably several additional places. Still a fun place to visit, imo, and safe. New Orleans, depending on what "relaxing" means to u.
