Maura Healey:

"I believe in diversity. I believe that we should continue to have women and people of color at the table. I believe it is wrong to exclude somebody because they have a disability, it is wrong to exclude somebody because of their sexual orientation. That’s not what Massachusetts is about and actually under federal law that’s not what this country is about. So let’s move on," she said on GBH.

Healey implied that people like Newsom are inadvertently helping Republicans by shifting the public conversation away from Trump’s desire to gut the federal government and to enrich wealthy people at the expense of everyday Americans.

"You’re just playing into the hands of exactly what they want, to distract everybody from the four-and-a-half trillion dollars in tax cuts that they’re going to want to jam through by cutting Medicaid, Social Security, and Medicare. Period."

Boston.com · Healey: Dems who platform trans athletes debate are helping the GOP"You’re just playing into the hands of exactly what they want," Gov. Healey said of Democrats centering the topic of transgender athletes.

Via today's Act on Mass newsletter, I learned that the $4 billion economic development bill contained a section which would shield "foreclosure rescue" shared-appreciation mortgage lenders from liability for predatory lending practices and lack of disclosure in their agreements. It seems designed to inoculate BlueHub Capital from a pending class-action lawsuit. Despite outcry from advocacy organizations, Governor Healey left this intact when she signed the omnibus jobs bill last week. BlueHub's CEO has been one of Healey's biggest donors and fundraisers. A bad look.

Most Americans interact with and know about their state government more than the federal government. Prominent, competent, progressive women in state office do more than govern their states well. They normalize the idea of powerful women doing powerful jobs.

Massachusetts Finally Cracks Down on Notorious New England Neo-Nazis

After years of intimidating the public with impunity, NSC-131 will be brought to court for alleged “violent and unlawful conduct.”

Sorry, short of time. I hit a Rolling Stone paywall and quickly switched back to the same article posted by MSN.

White nationalists have been problems in Maine and Vermont prior to this. This Massachusetts case sounds to me to be a little nastier, which is saying a lot. The Maine and Vermont examples were plenty bad enough.

Check out NSC-131's goal of creating a "white-only ethnostate in New England."
