Your Attorney General’s response to my suing Legislature yesterday. Not “good luck”. Not “I hope the courts support the People’s audit” Instead, she promises to get the case dismissed. What’s it like to have so many friends on the bench @MassAGO? People want to know. #mapoli

You pay taxes, so you have a right to know. I am asking you to support our ballot initiative to place the State House under the Public Records Law. Transparency, accountability, and accessibility matter. #mapoli

@kathoderaytube @MayorWu The mission is just to release information and source material that seems to be omitted from typical sources. We have no agenda and don’t support any specific politicians/candidates. We get information, make it available to the masses, and leave it at that.

@Boston_Account @MayorWu I’m not deriding anything- I just want to know who’s behind the publication and what your mission is.

The Suffolk County Sheriff - who has jurisdiction over Boston- was just taken into custody for corruption charges. A Boston City Councilor is expected to be sentenced to jail time in a few short weeks. Numerous officials within the @MayorWu administration have been arrested over the past several months - many of them facing felony charges. This statement from @wutrain is not grounded in reality. #mapoli #bospoli

UPDATE: Boston Mayor Michelle Wu had a short response when reached by NBC10 Boston for comment on the Justice Department's letter: "Unlike the Trump administration, Boston follows the law." on.nbcboston.com/QnrirA6

Our stories include all relevant primary source material so the readers can verify the information provided and decide for themselves. In our experience, most people that deride information based on who provides it do so because they have no evidence-based rebuttals so just revert to personal attacks. Our approach is to remove that element from the equation. If you have a problem with one of our posts/stories, provide evidence that supports it.

@Boston_Account @MayorWu If you are non-partisan, why doesn't your website have information on the people in your organization?

.@MayorWu is quoted as saying: “Unlike the Trump administration, Boston follows the law.” The point is that multiple elected officials and direct appointees of elected officials in Boston do not follow the law, and, therefore, the statement by @wutrain is inaccurate. Both Tompkins and Anderson were arrested as the result of FEDERAL investigations.

Boston's children and families face daily exposure to discarded needles in our parks, schools, and sidewalks due to ineffective policies. @MayorWu, we urge you to immediately halt needle distribution programs citywide until robust systems are implemented to prevent children from being harmed by discarded needles. @ErinforBoston @EdforBoston @juliaforboston @Baker4Boston @Ruthzee @Santana4Boston

Wu called on Kraft to make his tax returns public to reveal any potential conflicts of interest, which he should. We are calling on Wu to release and disclose her potential conflicts of interest via her stockholdings in Rockland Trust. Wu’s tax returns aren’t public - all that is available is a Boston Globe summary of what they determined to be pertinent information for voters. We think how much stake the Mayor has in Rockland Trust - a company that does significant financial transactions with/within the City of Boston - is information that should be disclosed.

This is a fair point from @mayorwu, but will she follow suit? Are you willing to disclose how much stock you and your husband own in Rockland Trust, @wutrain? How many city developments requiring your approval are financed by Rockland Trust? City contracts? Etc. #mapoli #bospoli

Michelle Wu called on her top challenger Josh Kraft to release his tax returns to reveal any financial interests or business “entanglements” he may have with the city that could impede his ability to effectively serve as mayor. trib.al/C118mlc

@JoshKraftBoston That’s because using Boston Fire cadets to relocate individuals dealing with addiction issues in the weeks leading up to a municipal election does little to address the actual issue. Boston needs competent leadership, not the illusion of it.

LEAKED EMAILS: Mayor Wu’s office quietly deployed Boston Fire cadets to help relocate addicts from Mass & Cass to various neighborhoods across the city. They called it a “coordinated response.” No transparency. No input. The crisis wasn’t supposed to be solved — it was spread

Mayor Wu keeps claiming her plan is "working great" and Boston is "the safest city in America". But just last week, her own Public Health Commissioner starkly admitted: "I think we have failed in terms of the drug use epidemic."
