Good morning to everyone in Massachusetts who agrees that this story everyone should share.
While our governor decided Massachusetts didn’t need to show up at the America 250 Fair on the National Mall, one proud Bay Stater refused to let our state be missing from this historic celebration.
Donna Festinger paid her own way to Washington, D.C. and has been personally staffing the Massachusetts booth so visitors wouldn’t walk by an empty exhibit from the birthplace of American freedom. She’s out there representing all of us with heart, pride, and zero political games.
It’s outrageous that the governor didn’t see the importance of representing the constituents here in our state at a once-in-a-generation event honoring 250 years of America. But Donna stepped up when leadership didn’t, and she’s saving the day for Massachusetts.
Thank you, Donna. You’re a true patriot and a shining example of what it means to love this state and this country.
250 years after July 4, 1776, one sovereign nation calls it natural born people “subjects” while another calls them “citizens”.
I could care less about what the royal inbreds do.
250 years after July 4, 1776, the successor of King George III pays taxes and publishes his returns. The successor of George Washington does not. https://t.co/CbIXDe8UQY
It’s wild to me that American sports fans hate the offsides rule in soccer, but celebrate this stupid review system in baseball that determines balls and strikes by 0.0000000000001 of an inch.
Necco Wafers: the candy equivalent of getting socks for Christmas. Tastes like regret wrapped in pastel chalk. Quite possibly the worst definition of ‘candy’ ever invented. Change my mind.
@JamesSurowiecki Why tf do politicians think that they can make such an ask of their constituents when they continually ignore the will of the people in far more important matters?
You’re not thinking this through, Jim.
