The chasm of cognitive dissonance is so vast that I can’t begin to comprehend it. But I am so curious to know— is this what you saw yourself growing up to be? A nominal “leader” with the power to stop oppression, but who chooses the sidelines? @marty_walsh @MassGovernor

[Meg Krench @MKrench]

You’re our elected officials. We pay your salary. You owe us, at the least, a valid explanation for why you have *tanks* on the streets of my city during a peaceful protest. @marty_walsh @MassGovernor

@MikeConnollyMA Thanks, Mike! Is there any talk about making covering one’s badge a fireable offense? (I would love to see identification go a step further with large-print last names on police uniforms like a football jersey— shouldn’t do anything one doesn’t want their name associated with.)

@caityweaver I hope this is the opening line to an autopsy of the decision to publish the Cotton op ed.

@EdMarkey 🎉 Can we add distressful sounds via LRAD to the list of things that should be banned, too?

In Cambridge, the proposed FY21 budget includes an increase of $4.1 million for the Police Department over FY20.

But hires in Human Services and Housing are delayed because of COVID.

With POR #133, I’m asking the Council to support a budget only if it reallocates funding

@prachigu What. A. Badass. I’m sorry about the dumpster fire that Cosmo seems to be, but it’s spectacular to see you calling it out. Gaslighting is so nefarious.

@jakemcgraw @mekosoff @PatrickCoffee I texted them. Took 24 hours but finally got through and cancelled. Number is [phone]

@hamiltonnolan This would be an excellent time to start up the subscription-based Un-DeadSpin

Boston City Council needs to step up and hold BPD accountable. Walsh isn't going to do it. @wutrain

[Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez @AOC]

Civil liberties protect ourselves from governments using “crises” and “emergencies” as justification to dismantle our rights.

This is suspension of habeus corpus, it is unconstitutional, and it is deeply disturbing that both NYPD is seeking it and a judge rubber stamped it.

@samswey @deray What do you think about asking for badge numbers to be printed in large font on the front and back of uniforms? Would reducing the feeling of anonymity reduce violence?

[Ed Markey @EdMarkey]

Abolish qualified immunity.

@morninggloria @washingtonpost @latimes Thx! I was looking for exactly that. Though my subscription isn’t cancelled yet as their member services site has crashed 🙃 Suggestions for independent writers’ websites or newsletters to subscribe to?

[Mike Connolly @MikeConnollyMA]

@JBennet Nope. Would you like to try again?

[Mike Connolly @MikeConnollyMA]

I stand in solidarity with @DARollins.

Over the past 2 days, the @BostonPatrolmen have "condemned" two elected officials in Massachusetts, myself and D.A. Rollins.

If the BPPA thinks calling out police brutality and providing oversight is wrong, then I don't want to be right!
