We are really humans! And, we're not paid, either. We resist dictatorship completely for free.

Maybe we can reinstall the original bridges, too, which moved many more people before being redesigned for cars. The Brooklyn, Manhattan, Williamsburg, and Queensboro bridges all peaked in daily crossings far higher than after redesigned for cars:

Why yes, yes we did. My earliest ancestors came here to this Naumkeag land in 1632 and went like 10 miles in 393 years. Here's my 5th Great-Grandfather's grave with the Revolutionary War marker on it:

Yesterday veterans gathered in Boston Common to recommit to their pledge to uphold the Constitution against all enemies - foreign and domestic. There were veterans from the Army, Navy, Airforce, Marines, and National Guard, including two Generals.

It's humbling to pay homage to those American veterans who fought the Nazis in WWII on this anniversary of D-Day. It's inspiring to see our veterans re-commit to their pledge to defend the Constitution and stand up for our rule of law against tyranny here today.

Another campaign victory in the books! It's been a pleasure to work with Taylor Yates during his campaign for Belmont Select Board, and yesterday, we cranked out a decisive win! Here he is being sworn into office today!

Boston is turned out against ICE today--Rumeysa was illegally sent to an ICE detention center in Louisiana despite a court order against moving her! Come for one, face us all.

America's first political parties were started by brewers and bar owners. There's a whole damn book about it by Christine Sismondo: "America Walks Into a Bar"
