Fourteen of those donations arrived since September 10, including the legal maximum $1,000 from Nolan on September 21. Matching amounts went to Lt. Gov. Kim Driscoll the same days.

The timing lines up with Healey’s push for faster federal review of a gas pipeline expansion Eversource supports. Nolan has said he recently had a friendly chat with Healey and Driscoll. At an industry conference he told the room her criticism of utility “greed” and profits is just election-year noise. He said they have good relations, the knocks are “nothing personal,” and after the election “the volume is going to go right down.” He has given the annual maximum to her in most recent years.

Nothing here is illegal. These are personal checks from employees, not company money, and the individual limit is $1,000 a year. Still, Massachusetts ratepayers face some of the highest electric bills in the country. The governor appoints the DPU commissioners who approve Eversource’s rate cases, and the company keeps reporting strong profits and large executive pay packages. Nolan’s own words point to a simple preference: a known regulator and quieter criticism once the campaign ends.

Any particular reason the people running the utility that keeps sending you those bills would rather she stay in office?

I was very impressed with Mike Minogue. He was spot on with the facts. I had not heard him speak until tonight. He will be a great governor.

DORCHESTER — Four masked riders on two mopeds circled a woman on the Franklin Field Golf Course near American Legion Highway on the morning of Aug. 1, according to a statement released by Suffolk District Attorney Kevin Hayden.

One of them stepped off the back of a moped, slapped the woman across the face, lifted his shirt to flash a handgun in his waistband, and rode off with her iPhone.

The teenager who did it is 15 years old and still at large.

A Norwood mother who relies on her SNAP benefits to feed her family is warning others after she says her EBT card was compromised and her monthly food stamps deposit was drained.

Mary Barclay filed a police report after a fraudulent purchase of $722 was made with her EBT card at an Illinois store on Sept. 11.

“My role is to take care of my children, and somebody has really thrown a wrench into that,” said Barclay, a single mom who lives with her 10-year-old twins. “Having to survive off food stamps isn’t a fun feeling. We struggle, but having basically half of my income stolen is awful. It is a whirlwind of emotions, and I didn’t know which end was up at that point.”

Lets see if Maura acts as quick to fix this as she does to protect illegals.

Governor Healey signed Chapter 188 on August 10. It is scheduled to take effect November 8.

Under prior law, abortion after 24 weeks was allowed only if a physician determined it was necessary to preserve the patient’s life or physical or mental health, or because of a lethal fetal anomaly or a grave fetal diagnosis incompatible with sustained life outside the womb without extraordinary intervention.

Chapter 188 replaces that list with a standard that an abortion after 24 weeks may be performed based on a physician’s professional judgment. It also says no medical review process may override the judgment of the treating physician and the patient or the patient’s health care proxy.

I never thought I’d see the day hundreds of women would bring their own children to rally for the release of a woman who killed hers.

Honestly, I don’t know where we go from here.

This is horrifying to witness.

Light's defense attorney said her client is a retired registered nurse on a fixed income who lives in Sutton, Massachusetts. She argued that the 56-year-old should not be considered a flight risk. Light does not have a criminal record, her attorney said.

56 and retired or removed for the reason of insanity?

Will Maura protect these young men citizens from the feds? Withhold names and date of birth as a privacy issue?

Memo to ICE’s Boston Field Office:

There are a few good parking spaces on Beacon Hill.

Banned from parking in the rest of Boston by Mayor Michelle Wu and her no parking meter maid Gov. Maura Healey, ICE may need to use a bit of ingenuity to get around the no parking roadblock.

ICE (Immigration and Custom Enforcement) has requested 250 contiguous parking spots in Boston to park its sleek black SUVs used to beef up its campaign of rounding up criminal illegal immigrants.

To say the proposal was met with hostility from Wu and Healey, who seek to abolish ICE outright, would be an understatement.

Not only did they reject the idea outright, but Wu also pressured owners of parking lots and garages to also do so.

“I ask you to join us. Reject any proposition by ICE to facilitate an attack on the people of Boston,” Wu wrote in a threatening letter.

Healey said, “We absolutely cannot allow ICE to have 250 parking sports in downtown Boston while they are engaging in these illegal tactics. We cannot enable them to ramp up even further in Massachusetts.”

While the Protect Act does nothing for Massachusetts citizens, it seeks to protect illegal immigrants from ICE arrest at courthouses and other state facilities.

“The Protect Act is the strongest law in the country to protect people from ICE,” Healey said.

But Healey did not say anything about protecting Massachusetts citizens from violent attacks from criminal illegal immigrants, nor did the governor say a word or two about their victims.

Ironically, ICE arrested a criminal illegal alien in Massachusetts wanted for aggravated murder in Brazil just two days before Healey signed her Protect Act into law. But the governor made no mention of it

BREAKING: I’m told by multiple federal sources that the suspect in custody for strangling a woman to death in her home in Framingham, MA on Thursday is a Brazilian illegal alien w/ prior arrests for DUI & aggravated assault w/ a weapon who is believed to have entered the U.S. illegally as a gotaway in 2019.

Sources confirm that ICE has now placed a detainer on 43-year-old Flavio Diaz with law enforcement in Middlesex County, MA. 

Will the Middlesex country sheriff pull a Bristol county Sheriff Heroux and release this murdering maggot back into the public without notifying ICE?

A grad student at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology remains under medical supervision after potentially creating and exposing themselves to a dangerous neurotoxin.

The victim, whose identity has not been released, fell onto the rail after trying to help a friend, also 19, who lost her balance

Close down the T! Hope this victims family sues the MBTA out of existence.

Massachusetts passed the first law in the New World requiring children to learn how to read and write...in 1642.

The state later became the first in the nation to pass a comprehensive education law.

Half of MA "graduates" can't read in the would-be most educated state in the nation.

Go to "Gateway Cities" and it's worse, like Holyoke, where only 6% can read:
