EXCLUSIVE: One Saturday afternoon in October, my phone lit up with a notification.

I glanced down at the message.

β€œAnna, Lindsey Halligan here,” it began.

Faced with our lawsuit, the Trump Administration has rightly decided to release $184 million in critical funding that helps Mass. residents serve their communities.

Our lawsuits are working, and we won’t stop fighting to hold the federal government accountable when they harm our residents.

Just learned from LinkedIn that a Heritage Foundation affiliate is now FOIA-ing (or equivalent) instructors’ syllabi to go snooping for supposed illegal DEI at state universities. It’s hard to describe how far past McCarthyism we’re headed here.

Censoring a story on censorship is about as 2025 as it gets.

Maybe I'm biased (because Massachusetts) but I'm unreasonably angry that *this* is the flag they appropriated. Locke's right to revolution is intriguing and the pine tree is iconicβ€”but I swear these unmitigated jackasses saw the word "Heaven" and just *had* to steal it.

The Times saying last year they'd no longer endorse candidates in local elections, then immediately being like "oh but not THAT guy" 10 months later because the candidate wants free buses gives away the whole game. "Objectivity" means you break your own rules to punch left as much as you want.
