They knew their ancestor fought in the Revolution. No one told them he was enslaved by a Harvard overseer. https://t.co/g8EHOGM3qv

@BostonGlobe African American people make up only 12% of the U.S. population now. Why are you so focused on them? Because you’re a racist weirdo.

[The New England Ledger @TheNELedger]

The Governor of California will far exceed this threshold.

UNHINGED: DHS is accusing Boston Mayor Michelle Wu of trying to intimidate private property owners after she urged parking operators to reject ICE leases and the city sought records identifying local responses to the agency’s request.

The escalating fight comes as ICE seeks 249 parking spaces in Boston for enforcement operations.

[Ron Rule @ronrule]

In 2001 George W Bush proposed a partial privatization plan for Social Security so you could put 10% of your SS contribution into the markets.

People rejected this.

We can now see that if it had passed, the 10% that went into the markets would have outperformed the 90% the government managed, the program would be solvent, and the average SS recipient would be receiving 2X what they currently receive.

The worst bet you’ll ever make is betting on government.

Mayor Wu called Latoya Gayle a BPS expert. She has never worked for BPS. #boston #bospoli #mapoli

[The New England Ledger @TheNELedger]

Latoya Gayle received a donation from the largest polluter in Massachusetts. Is she really an environmental activist? #Jetblue #bospoli
