The deals that have been cut have made the withholding of federal grants based on partisan viewpoints a viable tactic.

Josh Kraft will lose this election, that much is clear. But you can lose an election and still advance important ideas. Sadly, all people will remember from this campaign will be the terrible way his consultants have run it.
Everything Michelle Wu falsely accuses me of, she’s guilty of herself. From ties to Trump megadonors, to how she financed her home, to her own father’s politics. Career politicians thrive on hypocrisy, and @MayorWu is no exception.

Ugly, chilling, alarming, authoritarian. And JD Vance was just in Germany chastising Europeans for similar attacks on speech. This administration has no consistent worldview except to enrich their friends and attack those they see as enemies.
SHALOM, MAHMOUD. "ICE proudly apprehended and detained Mahmoud Khalil, a Radical Foreign Pro-Hamas Student on the campus of @Columbia University. This is the first arrest of many to come." –President Donald J. Trump

My latest on the Dear Colleague letter from the now comically named Office of Civil Rights. Disregard the content of the letter, but not its intention. Read here:

To be clear, this is a choice. There is no law that requires these changes. Northeastern is a case study in fair weather institutional “commitments��� to equity which fold as quickly as their websites can be updated. Sadly, there will be many more.

Under the looming threat of federal examination, Northeastern has replaced or dismantled nearly all of its Diversity, Equity and Inclusion, or DEI, messaging and websites. Among several other...

Not sure a republican governor could enact more heartless and shortsighted policies than @MassGovernor has on this. Her choices further undermine our Right to Shelter law and, combined with new local laws against sleeping outdoors, criminalize and further traumatize vulnerable.
NEW: @MassGovernor said she will seek to limit homeless and migrant families to six-month stays in Massachusetts’ strained emergency shelter system, further curtailing what’s allowed under state law. via @BostonGlobe.

Legend.
This fall, I knocked over 5,000 doors in Boston, Cambridge, Somerville, and Medford to talk about Question 2 and Question 5. Decided to head back to Philly today to do GOTV with the Working Families Party in the neighborhoods where I did my first canvassing in 2012.
