It’s not everyday that the President of the United States @realDonaldTrump posts three of your stories to his Truth Social account. Trump posted three of my @bostonherald stories on #SNAP fraud in #Massachusetts to his personal Truth Social account today. Super cool! #Trump #Massachusetts #politics #fraud #SNAP #POTUS

Heroes among us RIP Bobby bostonherald.com/2026/05/23/bos…

TUNE IN: Tomorrow morning at 9:30AM EST, I’ll be on @Morning_Joe. Hopefully, both Joe @ScarboroughNow and Mika will on air tomorrow. People aren’t looking for ideology - they’re looking for solutions to their problems. I’m looking forward to talking about those solutions.

#Breaking: One member of the #Massachusetts Governor’s Council, Mara Dolan, says she rejected a nominee with prosecutorial experience because he could not guarantee that he would not “go too far in ensuring public safety.” The vote follows last week’s mass shooting in #Cambridge, carried out by a suspect released early by the parole board from an already light five-year sentence for shooting at police. It also came as the board has granted early release for several convicted violent criminals, including first-degree murderers. #Massachusetts #PublicSafety #parole #politics #mapoli

In a 4-3 vote, the #Massachusetts Governor’s Council rejected the appointment of @MassGovernor Parole Board nominee Vincent DeMore, who served 12 years as a prosecutor, with one councilor explaining that DeMore couldn’t guarantee he wouldn’t “go too far in ensuring public safety.” #Massachusetts #safety #crime #parole #politics #mapoli bostonherald.com/2026/05/20/mas…

Why does state gov’t exist if not to protect the safety of the public? On the heels of several high profile botched releases, the failure of the GOVERNOR’S COUNCIL to provide for more balanced viewpoints on the Parole Board is nothing short of stunning.

#Breaking: The #Massachusetts Governor’s Council has voted to reject a @MassGovernor Maura Healey nominee who has both prosecutorial and criminal defense experience following last week’s mass shooting in #Cambridge and the early release of several convicted murderers by the state’s parole board. Council member Christopher Ianella tells me the parole board needs more social workers and psychologists, not prosecutors. He says Massachusetts was not made less safe with today’s vote. #Massachusetts #PublicSafety #parole #politics #mapoli

#NEW: An ethics complaint has been filed against #Massachusetts Congressman Seth Moulton @RepMoulton over comments he made in a recent @CNN appearance, where he “insinuated” that Secretary of War @PeteHegseth should fear execution for his “war crimes,” making a reference to Nazi U-boat captains “executed” for war crimes for shooting at boats. #Massachusetts #Moulton #Hegseth #Politics bostonherald.com/2026/05/19/eth…

As the #Massachusetts Senate gets into budget week on Beacon Hill, I asked Senate President Karen Spilka if the Legislature dwindling amount of local state aid, which has forced cities and towns into property tax hikes or Proposition 2 1/2 override votes. Spilka instead blames federal funding cuts by the #Trump administration. I also asked her if the Legislature is spending too much on pet projects and the state’s costly climate mandate. She says that was too general of a question to answer. #Massachusstts #Spilka #Budget #politics #mapoli

#Massachusetts Senate President Karen Spilka says don’t blame the legislature for dwindling local state aid. Instead, she’s pointing the finger at cuts in federal revenue to the state as cities and towns struggle to stay afloat. #Massachusetts #budget #politics #mapoli bostonherald.com/2026/05/19/spi…
