We can blame ICE all we want — and we should — but ICE couldn’t do this without the assistance of local police. Including right here in Massachusetts.

This is completely horrifying and unacceptable. #mapoli

We need politicians like @etelhaxhiaj.bsky.social, who believe in standing up for their constituents when ICE terrorizes communities and tries to kidnap residents.

Just made a donation to Etel and you should too.

Just yesterday, Governor Healey was on the radio defending the #Worcester cops who assaulted a teen girl while ICE goons abducted her mother. #Massachusetts deserves better than this two-faced fraud.

“There was a big crowd there and eventually Worcester PD was called to it to help address what was going on, and some in the crowd moved on law enforcement,” Healey said. “You cannot move on police.” Healey said that Massachusetts’ law is clear that police aren’t allowed to assist ICE when it comes to apprehending and detaining people for immigrant enforcement reasons. But assisting ICE and crowd control are “two different things,” she said. “And what I understand about yesterday is that Worcester PD was called to the scene in response because there was a big crowd and then things went from there.” The police response “didn’t have anything to do with what ICE was doing,” she added.

Gotta keep trying to make things better locally. In that spirit, Worcester DTM is asking folks where we'd like new bike racks:

Two off the top of my head.. Stearns Tavern (for Coes, events, voting), and June & Chandler for Cordella's. Where d'you think?
