Police in Bloomington, MN just announced that one of the guys they arrested in an underage sex trafficking sting was a **background checker for ICE agents.**
He had a high security clearance in the Trump administration... and he was caught trying to abuse children. Sickening.

Missed Bad Bunny’s halftime show? Want to rewatch? (4x and counting for me). The NFL posted the whole performance on YouTube: on pace for 500k views in the first 30 minutes.

There is absolutely NOTHING stopping Bill Clinton from spilling the beans on all he knows right now.
Also, this has been true since 2015. Bill Clinton could have dropped dime when his wife was running for POTUS, or on any day thereafter.
We gotta put Bill on the same list as Comey, Mueller,

More snow is falling and we have 550 pieces of equipment out now treating and clearing Boston’s streets.
Teams will be working day and night to plow and remove snow. Give them space to work safely.
Please shovel your sidewalk before Sunday's freeze and lend a hand to neighbors in need of help.

Never felt more proud of my city than I did today watching the mayor stand proudly with dozens of community leaders. Thanks Mayor Wu! The only way out is through and we need to stand shoulder to shoulder.
We are Boston and we will never abandon our values.
Today, with mayors and city managers from Cambridge, Chelsea, Lynn, Newton, Brookline, Medford, and Somerville, I signed an “Executive Order To Protect Bostonians From Unconstitutional and Violent Federal Operations.”
