Malden Teachers and community members out yesterday to protest the 100+ pink slips in handed out by the district this past week.

Many who were let go "for performance" haven't even received their annual performance reviews yet.

I was proud to file a Resolution, with my colleague @LizBreadon, recognizing May 6-12, 2022 as "National Nurses Week" in the @CityOfBoston. Nurses are public health heroes who make our communities safer and healthier everyday.

Only In Boston@OnlyInBOS

Massachusetts became the first state to legalize same-sex marriage eighteen years ago today.

Today, same-sex marriage is legal in all states.

Between May 17, 2004 and December 31, 2004, nearly one in five marriages in Massachusetts was a same-sex marriage.

Michelle #WuProtectionAct Wu has a clear preference for dodging questions in a controlled & friendly environment where she can push “progressive” soundbites unchallenged. Protestors tend to unsettle her, which is why she resorts to libel & dirty games. #ShameOnWu #bospoli #mapoli

The Only Thing America Should Mandate Is Freedom@MandateFreeedom

What @MayorWu fails to share is that she’s weaponized @bostonpolice against the people, where BPD is instructed by legal 2 ARREST people for exercising #1A #FirstAmendment before 9AM instead of the financial fine under #WuProtectionAct, aka Ordinance 16-63 https://lucibab.substack.com/p/houston-i-mean-boston-we-have-a-big
