BREAKING 🚨Woke Boston City Councilor Tania Fernandes was arrested by the FBI for stealing taxpayer money
She hired her family as staff & had them secretly give her cash kickbacks in city hall bathrooms
She is the 1st former illegal alien to serve in Boston and was praised by liberals for her BLM activism
After all of the crying about "White Privilege😩"
Sunny Hostin just tried to use her celebrity status and the fact she was a "former federal prosecutor" to keep her son, Gabriel, from getting arrested or getting a fine for trespassing on active Metro-North Railroad tracks
This woman is an absolute POS hypocrite!!
She’s so frikking stupid.
@AOC:
“The U.S. Senate ‘was founded on, uh, you know, Jim Crow.”
(The Senate was established 174 years before Jim Crow became a thing, and it was a Democrat thing).🤣🤣🤣
PLEDGE ICED OUT President of Easthampton City Council Koni Denham (Director of Student Success at UMass/Peace Corps in Kazakhstan) and Kiam Jamrog-McQuaid (Research Analyst at the UMass) can't stand for the Pledge of Allegiance at meeting they voted to investigate ICE. #mapoli
The Massachusetts Fiscal Alliance told the Boston Herald on Tuesday that the Healey administration should "immediately pause this deal, release the relevant procurement records, conflict disclosures, scoring documents, and communications, and allow these allegations to be fully reviewed."

Concerns grow as Wu's challenger to Sen. Nick Collins is revealed as a lobbyist whose nonprofit profited from $13 million in taxpayer money

Maura Healey is doubling down when she should be hitting pause, launching an independent investigation, and getting taxpayers the answers they deserve.
Throughout her administration, she's repeatedly broken her promise to lead the most transparent administration in Massachusetts history. When I ran the MBTA, we held hours-long public board meetings every single week because transparency builds trust.
As governor, I'll bring real transparency back to state government. We'll investigate allegations of conflicts of interest, open the books, and make sure every taxpayer knows exactly how their money is being spent.
How DARE Pete Hegseth and President Trump let the Blue Angels get away with this horror show in Pensacola!
Oh wait, this pic is from 2011 and no one cared back then.
Gee, wonder why.
This is corruption and dishonesty.
“I’m all about supporting whatever is going to cost the taxpayers the least amount of money as somebody who wants to protect taxpayer dollars.”
Says Maura Healey…. unless it involves supporting the audit, cutting the mandated energy climate tax, lowering the income taxes or property taxes, reducing the sales tax and suspending the gas tax

Imagine this: you get paid by our tax dollars and you don’t even show up to do your job when it involves our tax dollars being stolen.
Wtf are these people doing in office if they don’t even care about our money being stolen and wasted? They are simply working against us.
Haven't we already seen this movie before? 🎬🤔
A massive government contract is awarded. Politically connected people are involved. Questions are raised about how the deal came together. The administration dismisses the concerns and tells the public that everything is fine.
Now, the Healey administration is moving forward with a nearly $2 billion courthouse deal in Springfield that could commit taxpayers to 40 years of lease payments.
The winning development team includes a firm led in part by the husband of Congresswoman Ayanna Pressley and the interim executive director of the Massachusetts Convention Center Authority.
Two losing bidders have filed a lawsuit alleging conflicts of interest and serious problems with the procurement process.
Governor Healey says she has no ethics concerns.
After the controversy surrounding the Applegreen highway service plaza contract, taxpayers should not be expected to simply accept another politically connected deal without scrutiny.
No one is saying political connections alone prove wrongdoing. But when billions of taxpayer dollars and decades of public payments are at stake, the standard should be more than "trust us."
The administration should immediately release the complete procurement record, explain how conflicts were reviewed, and pause the contract until the courts and the public have had an opportunity to examine the allegations.
Taxpayers should not be locked into a 40-year agreement while serious questions remain unanswered.

Democrats are quick to call for abolishing ICE after an illegal is killed, why don't they ever call for abolishing illegal immigration after a US Citizen is raped, tortured and murdered by an illegal alien?
The Massachusetts Fiscal Alliance is calling on the Healey administration to pause a nearly $2 billion, 40-year lease for the new Springfield courthouse, the Roderick L. Ireland Regional Justice Center.
The winning development team includes CoJo Partners. Its principals are Conan Harris, husband of Congresswoman Ayanna Pressley, and John Barros, who is currently serving as interim executive director of the Massachusetts Convention Center Authority.
Two losing bidders have filed a lawsuit alleging undisclosed conflicts of interest, questions about site control, and inconsistent application of procurement rules. This comes less than a year after the Applegreen highway service plaza deal collapsed amid similar concerns over transparency and conflicts.
When nearly $2 billion in taxpayer money is on the line over four decades, a little extra scrutiny and full transparency never hurts.
What do you think? Should the state slow this down and release the procurement records for review?
