As your Governor, I won’t stop fighting to defend your reproductive freedom.
Pretty notable ingredients for tornado potential tomorrow where storms fire up. Especially to the west. We haven't had a confirmed tornado in New England so far this year...tomorrow might actually be the highest chance we've seen up to this point.

soon to have outstanding mayors: New York 🤝 Boston
Mamdani: Why should I debate Trump's puppet when I could debate Trump himself? If Trump is serious about this, he should come to New York City. We can have as many debates as he wants about why he is cutting snap benefits for hungry New Yorkers just to fund tax cuts for his billionaire donors
in February, undecideds: "Kraft? like, the Patriots guy? he's running for mayor? okay, I'm intrigued." in September: "...oh..."
get fucked, Kraft
Not much left to say here about this one! www.bostonglobe.com/2025/09/05/m...
Boston stands with Wu!
We will not yield.
Boston doesn’t back down to bullies. Boston is one of the safest major cities in America thanks to Mayor Wu’s leadership and the trust between residents and public safety officials.
It's insane to me how most of the world has stopped shipping mail and packages to the United States and the media has barely covered it. This is what I mean by boiled frogs. Everyone has become accustomed to the once unthinkable.
It seems like federal district courts are in full revolt against SCOTUS. I've never seen such direct scathing criticism of SCOTUS like this from the bench over their shadow docket rulings quietly overturning precedent without explanation. From the Harvard decision today.
They keep losing in court because everything they’re doing is illegal
“We are going to make sure vaccines remain available in Massachusetts.” Way to go, @massgovernor.bsky.social Maura Healey! #covid #mapoli www.bostonglobe.com/2025/09/03/m...
Your neighbor is not your enemy. The billionaires are lying. Because it’s easier to pick our pockets when we’re fighting each other.
"this is just a distraction," as we're told to get into the unmarked van...
Not going to stop thinking about the comment that Trump is sending Confederate armies to occupy Northern cities. How much more is there to say? That’s not a “distraction.” It’s what the white supremacists who tried to secede have wanted for over a century. It’s not a distraction to them at all.
That Pritzker press conference was... surreal, and I think marks a significant moment of escalation in the constitutional omni-crisis. This was the governor of a state saying plainly the Union itself is being torn apart and his state is being militarily invaded by an authoritarian regime.
It’s Boston vs. the billionaires, and I’m with Boston.
still seems like we're mostly just gonna let this happen. we'll be upset, but just watch.
Pritzker: When did we become a country where it's okay for the president to insist on national television that a state should call him to beg for anything, especially something we don't want? Have we truly lost all sense of sanity in this nation that we treat this as normal?
There is a power greater than greed and hate, and it is called PEOPLE POWER. El pueblo unido jamas será vencido. The people united will never be defeated. 📍Labor Day March, 2025
Great turnout at Boston’s first Labor Day parade this morning! Happy Labor Day! 💪
Boston is out for Labor Day: workers over billionaires!
AFL-CIO Secretary-Treasurer Fred Redmond: “Today, we’re going to march, celebrate the labor movement and celebrate workers. And tomorrow, we are going to fight to make sure that every worker in this country has the right to have dignity and respect every day.”
Pritzker: "No one in the administration -- the president or anybody under him -- has called anyone in my administration or me. It's clear that in secret they're are planning this invasion with US troops."
Illinois Gov. Pritzker vows to pursue Trump officials who participate in an illegal National Guard deployment to Chicago: "If you hurt my people, nothing will stop me - not time or political circumstance - from making sure that you face justice under our constitutional rule of law."
LGBTQ students deserve to be themselves at school.
we were all happy for an evening and that’s not nothing
on that day, the sun will shine just a little brighter. the food will taste just a little better. songs will be sung. drinks will be enjoyed. it will be a day to be remembered.
Vance would be the most lame duck of all-time. MAGA will deflate instantly, and it'll just be a free-for-all power grab with no clear succession. I'll take that over... this lol
one day, it will be real. and on that day, the sun will shine just a little brighter. the food will taste just a little better. songs will be sung. drinks will be enjoyed. it will be a day to be remembered.
go @wutrain.bsky.social!! 💪
Are you prebeared to vote on September 9th?
Good.
🤣
fuck off lol
get fucked, Noem. sincerely, Boston.
That was one of the most batshit press conferences of Trump's public life. He brandished a photo of Putin and promised to deploy the US military to occupy Chicago, New York, and San Francisco. A sane country would be moving toward impeachment and removal right now.
We are outraged and deeply distressed that armed federal agents came onto our campus—making arrests on the very ground where, in 1942, Japanese American families were forced to board buses bound for concentration camps. It was a deliberate act of provocation and intimidation.
"But nearly three years later, it’s becoming clearer and clearer — the Massachusetts millionaires tax has been a total success, and an incredible benefit for our state’s businesses. " #mapoli commonwealthbeacon.org/opinion/the-...
here's clips of Elise Stefanik getting brutally booed at an event today in her district
Newsom: "He doesn't play by a different set of rules. He doesn't believe in the rules. As a consequence, we need to disabuse ourselves of the way things have been done. It's not enough to just hold hands, have a candlelight vigil, talk about way the world should be...we have got to meet fire w/fire"
a better comparison would be to match watts. this thing will put out 3,200,000 kilowatts, so it's like spending $31,250 per kilowatt, which is definitely lopsided.
understand the sentiment you're going for, but $714 buys about 2 solar panels and 0 batteries. and it certainly would not buy a charge controller, nor the labor for install.
A new Boston neighborhood news project, Allstonia, promises "neighborhood-run news for Allston." We're adding it to our database of independent local news outlets in Massachusetts. allstonia.com/about-2/
welcome to Boston, @govpritzker.illinois.gov!
Thrilled to welcome @jbpritzker.bsky.social to Boston! In this moment, I’m grateful for leaders like Governor Pritzker fighting for our democracy and working every day to get things done.
“Garber, in a conversation with one faculty member, said that the suggestion that Harvard was open to paying $500 million is ‘false’ and claimed that the figure was apparently leaked to the press by White House officials...” www.thecrimson.com/article/2025...
This shouldn’t be surprising. The only way to fight back is to… actually fight back. If Democrats want to improve their approval rating (or far more importantly, make actual change), we need real leadership to put up real resistance to authoritarianism. apnews.com/article/ap-p...
Excited to see that Boston is another step closer to welcoming the WNBA to the city of champions! Boston is the hub for sports fans and I’m looking forward to partnering with the team to expand opportunities for young basketball players in our city.
French government subsidies for renewable energy are set to jump 23% to a record €9 billion next year, after almost doubling in 2025
Motherfucking wind farms…
You don't actually know what will or will not make a difference which is why it matters to try to do things.
Thank you to Steve—dedicated Fort Point resident and neighborhood advocate—for sharing his perspective on our Office-to-Residential Program, and the impacts it will have on his beloved neighborhood for years to come.
The most common complaint heard about Open Newbury St these days… “Why isn’t this permanent?” 📍Boston
BREAKING: We're suing ICE for unlawfully targeting and arresting people who show up to court for their immigration hearings.
More than a dozen members of Congress who earned degrees from Harvard University are warning their alma mater not to cut any deal with President Trump, and that doing so could warrant a congressional investigation.
Massachusetts Governor Maura Healey is proposing to spend $400 million to offset some of the Trump administration’s massive cuts to scientific research funding at Boston’s prestigious hospitals and at schools like Harvard
We can play too.
NEW: I'm co-leading a coalition to sue the Trump Administration for its attacks on health care for trans youth. These decisions should be made by patients, providers, and their families - not politicians. We're fighting to protect all of our young people from these unlawful policies.
American media has been an abject failure for most of my adult life. they are utterly undependable as a whole, even if there are individual journalists trying hard within their scope.
The fact that Harvard is seriously contemplating bribing a pedophile with $500 million while dismantling everything it previously stood for is seriously depressing. Every single one of our institutions are failing us.
Maine has been leading the way on this
It looks like Harvard is not up to the task of leading the defense of academic freedom and democracy in the United States. It was a big ask, to be sure, and sadly, it appears Harvard is not big enough. History will not look kindly on us.
The extremely simple fact is that Jeff Epstein was the most notorious child sex trafficker in history, and the President of the US was his close personal friend for decades Acting like this is complicated is absurd. The man knew what Epstein did, didn't care, and participated
everyone is arguing cowardice, but I'm having a hard time not seeing this as complicity. in fact, I'm having a hard time not seeing complicity broadly across the country, from media to business. the elites of this country clearly want this stuff, it was just never socially acceptable to say so.
Trump is playing politics with SNAP, a program families across Massachusetts rely on to put food on the table, to fuel his cruel, anti-immigrant agenda. We’re suing to protect our residents and uphold our federal privacy laws.
Forever grateful. ❤️
Neighborhood by neighborhood, street by street, brick by brick, we’re making Boston a home for everyone.🧱
Every family deserves healthcare, food, and safety. Period.
Great to see momentum build for universal healthcare for all, incl/ at the June MassCare conference in #Worcester & in #Washington w/ #singlepayer legislators joining @edmarkey.bsky.social unveil his bill to allow states to establish #MedicareForAll! #mapoli www.senatoreldridge.com/press-releas...
85% of Gaza is on the brink of death due to starvation. Israel could let aid in at any moment. And some people (like these men tried to do with me on Friday) are still trying to justify this atrocity. There is no justification. This could stop at any moment. End the blockade now.
Spotted in Tallahassee…
Donald Trump just cut off funding for Planned Parenthood — including clinics in our state. In Massachusetts, abortion is still fully covered by MassHealth. And we're delivering $2M for @pplm.org so they can keep providing high-quality reproductive care.
Republicans: WE NOMINATE SKELETOR Democrats: We dislike Skeletor but we will vote to confirm him. Please give us between 5 and 50 dollars. Democrats: I stand before you to condemn the actions of Skeletor. He should have never been given this power. Please give me between 5 and 50 dollars.
always appreciate the semi-weekly reassurance that I made the right decision in leaving the Democratic party
The institutions did not hold.
BREAKING: We just subpoenaed the Epstein files. As a survivor of sexual assault, I know the pain & trauma survivors carry. This subpoena is a massive victory for every survivor who has ever been silenced, dismissed, or harmed. Bondi must release the files immediately. We demand accountability.
No wonder the Pedophile Protection Party shut Congress down early.
Millions will lose healthcare under Trump’s bill—and for what? So billionaires can hoard more wealth while working families, seniors, people with disabilities are left to suffer. No one should have to choose between going broke or getting care. seiu.co/4kUnmDF
yeah, it's a coup. we've known this since 2020, but almost everyone with any real power is pretending not to notice (either because they're an idiot or complicit, or both)
Federal funding is gone. But we're not going anywhere.
Not really an overstatement to say that the test of a free society is whether or not comedians can make fun of the country's leader on TV without repurcussions.
The record heat we've seen this summer is a reminder that we are seeing the impact of climate change already. The major polluters who caused climate change should have to pay for the costs of necessary climate resiliency investments. #mapoli actionnetwork.org/petitions/su...
The Trump Administration is attempting to roll back legal representation for unaccompanied immigrant children, putting vulnerable young people's rights at risk and limiting their access to systems designed to protect them. I filed a brief in court today to fight back against this harmful action.
The median price of a single family home in Greater Boston has surpassed $1 million for the first time ever. “This milestone serves as a reminder of the ongoing imbalance between supply and demand in our market.”
Actual footage of White House officials dealing with the Epstein files:
We just broke ground (wall!) to start construction at Boston’s newest office-to-residential housing conversion! This project will create 77 new homes—including 15 income-restricted units—in Fort Point.
Exclusive: For Jeffrey Epstein’s 50th birthday, friends created a book of bawdy letters. One was from Donald Trump.
it better leak
omg I love you lol
We should be doing everything we can to make health care more accessible – not harder and more expensive for millions of Americans. I will fight the President’s attempts to unlawfully roll back coverage for Vermonters, including efforts to take away coverage for gender-affirming care.
