@davec_NH I have seen so many people who think themselves to be free market capitalists, and libertarians arguing against additional consumer options. Absolutely mind blowing.
@Arizona_LP If all cultures were equal, you would have a point. They are not, so you don't.
In this regard, you clowns are just like socialists and commies...ignoring reality and human nature, to prop up your fairy tale ideals.
@RonMariano Actually, it it the entirely corrupt MA legislature and their arrogance "often resulting in legal challenges and uncertainty for voters". We were certain that you should be audited, and you told us we were dumb. You should all be hung.(After a trial, of course)
In 2023 CNN fake journalist Laura Coates passionately explained why Trump's alleged mortgage fraud was not a victimless crime.
In 2025 Coates claimed that Letitia James' little mortgage fraud mistake wasn't a big deal because it didn't hurt anybody.
This is CNN.
How do I know that the climate *crisis* is a scam?
Here are five reasons:
1️⃣ None of the politicians, celebrities, or “scientists” yammering about it have altered their lifestyles by an inch. If they opted to forgo using O&G products, then I’d take them seriously. Actions speak louder than words.
2️⃣ Climate conferences aren’t being held virtually on Zoom using their large meeting extensions. It’s doable, they just choose not to. They like to fly overseas to lecture us about reducing our “carbon footprint” all the while they do nothing to lower their own.
3️⃣ Wealthier alarmists are still living on or buying oceanfront property. If ocean levels were really rising at a catastrophic rate (as opposed to the gradual increase that is actually occurring), then they would move inland and banks would not approve loans.
4️⃣ Alarmists rarely, if ever criticize China and India, and they always come up with all sorts of wonderful excuses as to why those nations get a free pass to continue emitting so-called “carbon pollution.”
5️⃣ The only solutions they offer involve increased governmental power. Higher taxes. EV mandates. Restrictions or bans on the energy sectors they don’t like.
And, as an added bonus, no real-world data proves, much less suggests that we are facing an “existential crisis.” Even the IPCC doesn’t use such rhetoric because it isn’t based on science.
Riddle me this, @RoKhanna. If closing USAID could cause so many child deaths in Africa, why would the African Union's top diplomat in DC celebrate USAID's shutdown? Does she like dead babies? Is she ignorant? How else do you explain her arriving at the same conclusion as DOGE?
Massachusetts.
72% of the population voted for the legislative audit. It was ignored for 1.5 years and then killed by the legislators, the target of the audit.
66% of voters polled approved of reducing the state income tax from 5% to 4%. It was killed by a team effort of AG Campbell and the Supreme Court which happens to have one of Gov. Healey’s ex-girlfriends on it, who she appointed.
Your legislators get free office space rent in government buildings even though it’s against campaign finance and ethics laws and rules. They also get $22-$29k in office and travel stipends. Non-incumbents must pay for their office space.
MA voters approved a constitutional change that forced legislative pay rises to be tied to inflation. Years later they gave themselves a $20k “leadership pay” for each committee they chair. Some chaired multiple committees and got $40k a year raises. Peasants don’t get to decide what royalty does with the treasury.
Massachusetts is the only state where your governor and legislators are exempt from public information requests.
Ironically, we’ve held three no Kings protests against Trump and Gov. Healey has a 58% approval rating. #Mapoli
🚨 Democrat Senator Harry Reid introduced legislation in 1993 to end Birthright Citizenship for children of undocumented immigrants.
"No sane country would do that — No sane country would give illegals citizenship"
“If you break our laws by entering this country without permission and give birth to a child, we reward that child with U.S. Citizenship and a guarantee to have full access to all public and social services this society provides.”
Boston Globe - cover this story. Do your job!
The Boston Herald already covering the breaking news.
Ask Maura Healey why she is opposed to lowering taxes- she knows everything is too expensive in MA and this minor tax cut returns $1300 back to average citizen.
Crazy- The people of Massachusetts are not even ALLOWED to vote for lower taxes now. Where is your accountability? You just wrote a PRO AG story and somewhat ignored her refusal to support the audit 72% voted for.
Boston Globe - instead of attacking my neighbor- you should show leadership and concern for our citizens.
Since 1970, public school student enrollment grew just 8%.
Total education staff exploded 84% with non-teaching staff up 138% (!!!!!)
The massive growth in education spending was swallowed by bureaucracy.
Not more kids, not better classrooms.
Federal authorities have arrested and charged 16 people with defrauding numerous government programs including MassHealth, SNAP, disability, and unemployment.
In announcing the arrest, U.S. Attorney for Massachusetts Leah Foley says, "it appears that you can come to Massachusetts and steal as many benefits as you want without fear and without any accountability."
Elizabeth Warren has been in Washington for over a decade. During that time, the federal government has spent roughly $80 trillion.
If after $80 trillion your solution is still "tax Elon Musk," you're admitting the problem isn't revenue... it's government spending.
This is a disgraceful outcome for Massachusetts taxpayers and a direct result of the Attorney General’s failure to do her job properly. More than 100,000 residents signed petitions to put tax relief before the voters. They followed the process, did the work, and earned a place on the ballot. Now, because the Attorney General’s office produced a summary the court found to be significantly misleading, voters are being denied the chance to decide for themselves whether Massachusetts should lower its income tax.

An insanely rigged economy is when someone can work in government their entire life, never produce anything of value, and end up a millionaire with three homes while bemoaning the “oligarchy.”
For decades we have heard the same tune, over and over.
-Rich people have too much money. We should have the money so we can fix things.-
Well, nothing has been fixed. The metrics on all the big talking points remain virtually unchanged. Over decades.
Nothing has changed, except now we are $38Tillion in debt, and the value of our dollar has plummeted.
For those suffering from amnesia: just four months ago, the Islamic regime in Iran slaughtered over 40,000 people in only two days, for the sole ‘crime’ of protesting for freedom.
