the "controlled demolition" of a legislative building really makes a lot of long term plans very very clear

This is obscene.

protests followed Biden to his Nantucket Thanksgiving retreat at private equity billionaire David Rubenstein's compound—chants of “we charge you with genocide” mixed with Christmas music as Biden cowered behind a children’s choir

A good day to contemplate the war crimes we could stop right now

Let me just say it’s f*cked that AOSIS wasn’t in the room when #COP28 President gavelled the decision, and it was painful the way their objections after the fact were “noted”. These are the voices that have tirelessly pushed ambition into this process. We should have heard them.

it’s impossible for me to square my life experience — with nothing ever remotely resembling horrors like this — with the reality that this is happening to a person right now. millions of people, right now. while i sit in a comfortable, warm home, feeling safe and healthy.

Disappointed that MA's delegation Elizabeth Warren & Ed Markey declined to join Senator Peter Welch, Sen. Bernie Sanders & Senator Jeff Merkley in opposing sending billions of taxpayer dollars overseas to perpetuate what is, unambiguously, a humanitarian crisis of catastrophic and horrific proportions.

Democrats who were running for president in 2020 ran on platforms of universal health care, stimulus checks, climate change, $15/min wage, housing, etc. How many of these policies came into fruition? They’ve had 3 yrs to show us exactly how “different” things would be.

in personal news!

I love when our governor or legislators say "A ballot question isn't the way to do this" about something. Yes, the correct way to do things is you doing your job. But that doesn't happen, so....

Rep Connolly isn’t at fault here, but the only reason we’re here is because legislative leadership chose to not move on these things before the end of formal session. The Democratic supermajority created this problem and now they’re having to deal with the consequences. #mapoli

Would be great to have MA join! A regular reminder that the MA senate has voted for this several times, and each time, the MA House blocked it. #mapoli

I need the Massachusetts Legislature to drop the bullshit and actually be the progressive beacon of hope that people think it is. The Feds aren’t coming to save us so we need to step up now. No more excuses.

all eyes on our state leaders in MA. voters re-elected Democratic supermajorities in both chambers and voted against Trump by 25+%. our state leaders have a democratic mandate & moral responsibility to act swiftly to protect their citizens from the worst to come #mapoli

Post-election take for your bingo card: MA House leadership chomping at the bit to make concessions to a party that got 36% of the vote in our state.

🚨 CALL TO ACTION: DEFEND QUESTION 1🚨 Yesterday, the State House voted 135-10 for a rules change to appoint a private firm to conduct a financial audit of the legislature– ignoring MA voters 72% vote to grant Diana DiZoglio the power to conduct a full legislative audit.🧵

Surprise, surprise: to close off a session where 112 of 132 Democrats voted with the Speaker 100% (!!) of the time, not a single Democratic rep voted against this blatant attempt to water down the voter's decision. recorder.com/Beacon-Hill-Ro…

"That we now must double our efforts to ensure that this widely popular change be implemented illustrates exactly why the audit is so needed: if our state leaders are willing to publicly ignore the will of the voters, what might they be doing behind closed doors?" - scotia (she/her)
