June 4, 2018 By Charley on the MTA 8 Comments

Bob Massie was kind enough to give me a few minutes of time after the balloting at the convention over the weekend. On WGBH Thursday, he was pretty blunt about Charlie Baker's performance, calling him a "fraud" and an "empty suit". So with … [Read more...]

“The filibuster” is not an inanimate thing.

It’s 40+ human Senators choosing to do wrong.
