Don't look away. This is what ICE is doing in our communities and all across the country.

Does he know you can just look this stuff up??

How long are you going to keep this post pinned, after laying off all your politics staff? Just curious, the second-hand embarrassment is strong.

Full transparency, this chart only includes the high runners. The full data includes many lesser candies including Tootsie Rolls (0 this year!), Crunch, Whoppers, Gummy Bears and many, many more. Total haul increased every year since 2020 until a small decline this year.

We've got a running spreadsheet since 2019. The big story this year was Kit Kat's dramatic fall, after 6 years of dominance, to a lowly 4th place finish.

Boston No Kings! won't be your average protest.

Yes, we’ll have speakers-but also live music, theater & art, & more than 30 resistance groups ready to turn your outrage into action.

Because in Mass, we don’t just rally—we organize.

Peaceful? Yup. Passive? Never. Join us!

The free speech activist who built a list of professors he worked to get fired for their speech must be celebrated for his support of free speech, and anyone who quotes his speech accurately in context will be fired and/or face state punishment by the champions of free speech, do I have that right?

"I don't care that he's dead."
"He's not a hero."
"He's a scumbag."
"He shouldn't be celebrated."

No, no. I'm not saying that about Charlie Kirk. Charlie Kirk said that about George Floyd.

Just in case anyone's interested in what he thought was fair to say about someone who was killed on camera.

ICE has just ramped up its presence in the BOSTON area.
If you see something -- a raid, cars with masked agents, etc. -- call LUCE right away and record everything you can.
Support your neighbors!

You can still update this embarrassing headline, @npr.org . You don't need to pretend to both-sides it when it's unconstitutional on its face.

I can't do it, but someone needs to build a Canary Mission equivalent for these assholes, so we can arrest them all later.

The arrests should be starting this afternoon, based on this story. DOGE is a criminal enterprise that has infiltrated the US government.

One of the most clarifying things I've seen in the past few weeks is "de-escalate all conflict that is not with the enemy."

Nice work. Keep on dogooding.

The call rings out again: every friend to this country, to themself, and to posterity is called to The Common at 11am on April 5th, to make a united and successful resistance to every destructive measure of this administration.

Are you the artist here? I'm with Mass 50501 and we are all seriously flipping out over how amazing this is. Thanks for your support!

We are pleased to announce that the @dropkickmurphys.com will be #ShippingUpToBoston to tell the Trump administration to keep their #HandsOffMassachusetts and #HandsOffBoston this Saturday 4/5!

We hope to see you all there as we gather on the Boston Common at 11 am and then march to City Hall.

Rumeysa Ozturk getting kidnapped on the street by several people in plain clothes -- hoodies, jackets, and masks.

What the people carrying out acts of evil like this kidnapping need to know is that despots like Trump don't last forever. And when he goes, these people are going to jail for a long, long time.

Illegal acts are illegal even if the boss tells you to do them.

Screenshot of Timothy Snyder tweet with the text: "If you accept that non-citizens have no right to due process, you are accepting that citizens have no right to due process. All the government has to do is claim that you are not a citizen; without do process you have no chance to prove the contrary."

Preach, Tim.

You're going to a protest that has speakers. Who do you want to hear from?

A. Fiery activists you've never heard of
B. State/national elected officials
C. Reps from groups you know and like
D. Academics dropping data and insights
E. Random celebs who support the cause

Multi votes and new ideas ok!

Over a thousand people on Boston Common, carrying signs protesting the actions of President Trump and Elon Musk.

Boston showed up again today, despite frigid temps and gusty winds. #50501
