Middleboro Review and so on

    Watch now   About ICE — Let’s Ty that Again! A recording from Joyce Vance's live video Joyce Vance and Mike Zamore Oct 12   Apologies for the technical glitch the first time I tried to send this out, which gave you a shaky video of me staring vacantly around the room instead of Mike’s and my actual conversation. Here’s the real thing! The ACLU’s Mike Zamore joined us this morning for an incredibly thoughtful conversation about how the Trump administration‘s mass deportation policy is damaging all of us; our democracy and each of us as individuals, as citizens of it. If you find the words of Niemöller—“first they came for”—to be an appropriate cautionary tale for the era we live in, then you’ll want to watch this conversation if you missed it live. Mike and I discuss how this administration is already coming for the rest of us, whether people have made that connection or not. This conversation is essential listening for everyone. We work through how to talk abo...

    Watch now   NEWS: Trump’s DHS Raids Congresswoman’s Home in Major Escalation, Trump’s Crowds Shrink as the GOP Turns on Itself, Judge Blocks Trump Ads Aaron Parnas Oct 12     Hey everyone, happy Monday.

Raids. Investigations. Pressure on the press. With the midterms just three weeks away, it’s becoming clear that this administration is willing to use the full weight of the federal government...

                CONGRESSMAN JIM MCGOVERN HAS BEEN AN OUTSPOKEN CRITIC                AND FOUGHT TO RESTORE FOOD FUNDING AMONG OTHER MAJOR                ISSUES....         Elon Musk's America PAC has reportedly spent more than $180,000 in about a week promoting VoteSafe.org. It's a website designed to look like Vote.org, the nonpartisan nonprofit that has helped people register for years. Reporting shows it collects visitors' personal information, and its updated privacy policy lets America PAC sell that data to "business partners." That's what deep pockets can buy: slick ads that point voters to a site they might never question. I don't have that kind of money, and I don't want it. My campaign isn't funded by corporate PACs or dark money. It's funded by people like you. That's how I kn ow this campaign answers to the people I'm figh...
