Governor Healey has expressly supported this contract.
She is also positioning herself as an ICE opponent—see below.
But meanwhile her administration is fighting the disclosure of information of data about its contract with ICE. bsky.app/profile/mass...

Shooting people in the street. Ripping parents from children. Americans stopped, detained and killed.
Now, ICE wants to build a new 400-bed facility in New Hampshire?
Governor Ayotte should be doing everything in her power to block this. Enough is enough.

ICE using the same ruse that Ted Bundy used to kidnap people should tell you something.
CCTV footage appears to show DHS agents posing as people having car trouble in order to lure a target out of his house before arresting them. The target comes out and starts helping them before 3 vehicles surround the scene. The car "experiencing" trouble then drives off with them.

Anyone trying to push the shared use path forward should have seen the mess that was the lake of the isles trail today.
The shared use path was full with people walking (good!) to an extent where biking wasn’t really a safe option.

This is not entirely related, but is the awful Lyndale design approved/happening? Still a way the multi-use path doesn’t happen? Haven’t been following that the last few months given *waves around* all that’s happened

Pay attention to the Prairieland case.
By saddling the defendants with indiscriminate charges, holding them without bail, and isolating them from lawyers and the public, prosecutors are attempting to terrorize them into signing guilty pleas in order to set a precedent criminalizing dissent itself.
