Last week, Boston received a letter from AG Bondi threatening to prosecute officials and withhold funds unless we cooperate with carrying out mass deportations.

Remember weather forecasts? Those were “waste and abuse”. The only path back for the country is to assure that a real DOJ prosecutes Elon Musk for his many crimes in 2029.
As some forecast offices halt overnight staffing, the National Weather Service is scrambling to reassign staffers internally and fill more than 150 positions to cover critical employment holes.

NYC’s congestion pricing is a policy miracle: Less traffic, less noise, faster transit, more business sales, more transit revenue. And it hasn’t produced the negative effects outside the cordon zone we were afraid of.
