One other dismal week for Democrats

It’s been a dreadful first week of 2026 for the native hackerama.

Let’s begin with this headline from Fox Information Channel a few multi-millionaire blow-in from Chicago by the identify of Ayanna Pressley:

“’Squad’ lawmaker’s ex-con husband swats telephone from interviewer attempting to query spouse.”

This occurred Monday at Chelsea Metropolis Corridor. A citizen journalist tried to ask the Democrat race grifter in regards to the multi-billion-dollar frauds being perpetrated by Somalis in Minnesota.

Her husband, Conan Harris, “smacked” the telephone of the reporter’s hand, in accordance with Fox.

“Sir,” the person responded to the millionaire jailbird, “you can not take my telephone out of my hand.”

However he might, and did. Apparently, you may take the thug out of jail, however you may’t take the jail out of the thug. Earlier than his spouse was elected to Congress, Conan Harris was simply your run-of-the-mill jailbird with a hack job at Metropolis Corridor. He’d simply completed 10 years for drug-trafficking.

Then Ayanna will get elected to Congress. Out of the blue, the ex-con is an “empowerment guide.” And he or she’s itemizing every kind of latest property on her monetary disclosure kinds, together with a mansion on Martha’s Winery.

As a substitute of being in Chelsea, shouldn’t Conan have been performing some empowerment consulting? Perhaps like with the embattled Excessive Sheriff of Suffolk County, Steve Tompkins, who will seemingly be in a jail cell himself by the top of the 12 months.

Take a look at this picture of the 2 of them, the ex-jailbird and the seemingly future jailbird, at Mayor Wu’s no-honkies-invited Christmas celebration in a public constructing in 2023. They have been each dreaming of a non-white Christmas.

Subsequent, again to ZooMass for a second. I missed a minimum of one brand-new hack on the payroll the opposite day. Keep in mind Claire Cronin, a longtime state rep from Brockton who was the US ambassador to Eire in the course of the Biden disaster?

After the Biden junta was ejected from energy a 12 months in the past, the Plymouth payroll patriot discovered succor and solace the place they’re all wont to do – at ZooMass.

She is now a “senior analysis guide” for $102,250 a 12 months. A mere pittance by UMass requirements, however any port in a storm….

Readers have additionally requested, how did Ginny Buckingham’s husband David Lowy get that prime $449,772-a-year hack sinecure as “Basic Counsel” when he’s, or was, a minimum of a nominal Republican?

And why would he retire from a part-time $206,000-a-year “job” at age 64?

Right here’s the reply. When Lowy “retired,” it opened a slot on the Supreme Judicial Court docket. And guess who Gov. Maura Healey picked to interchange Lowy?

Her former Sapphic soulmate, Gabrielle Wolohojian, whom she had dumped for a brand new gal pal, 20 years youthful than the wrinkly Gabrielle.

One other nationwide search!

That is how issues work within the hackerama. You open a slot for one in every of yours by discovering a brand new, even higher job for the present parasitical payroll patriot. All people wins, besides the taxpayer.

Subsequent, come on down Rep. Chynah Tyler of Roxbury. She simply agreed to pay Massachusetts $6,000 after she admitted spending hundreds on private bills.

The proscribed bills included $223 at Aicha’s African Hair Braiding Salon and $67.62 at Uber Eats.

Within the settlement to pay what quantities to a fantastic, she blamed her issues on the start of a kid final winter, “which impacted my capability to personally oversee sure marketing campaign finance actions.”

Actually? No one might assist? What about your, uh, husband?

In fact, when it comes to sticky-fingered Roxbury pols, Chyna’s transgressions are small change. Two latest Roxbury metropolis councilors, Tania Fernandes Anderson and Chuck Turner, have ended up in federal jail for assorted heists.

Three former Roxbury state senators – Dianne Wilkerson, Invoice Owens and Royall Bolling Sr. – have been likewise imprisoned in Membership Fed, Wilkerson for stuffing money into her bra and Bolling for revenue tax evasion.

Sen. Owens was extra of a blue-collar sort thug. He assaulted a motorist on Blue Hill Avenue with a tire iron and ended up at Cedar Junction for a brief bid.

All of the above requested for no particular remedy. However they definitely would have appreciated getting the form of kid-glove remedy that Gov. Maintain-It Healey continues to lavish on her former high western Mass aide, LaMar Cook dinner.

The background checks on Cook dinner, if actually there have been any, have been completely ignored. After which when the Conan Harris-type drug kingpin lastly did get lugged and charged with trafficking 27 kilos of cocaine, Maura reduce him a examine for $31,000 after which claimed that, like Sgt. Schultz, she knew nothing.

Cease me in the event you’ve heard this one earlier than.

It’s identical to her tall tales in regards to the unperformed background checks in her international freeloader flophouses, or her ever-changing tales about stopping (or not stopping) the natural-gas pipelines.

All the time Healey claims to be a sufferer of circumstance.

I assume she’s wanting now for a brand new deputy for her western Mass workplace. Just one requirement: it may well’t be a white male.

Could I nominate Israel Rivera, Holyoke metropolis councilor? He was lugged by the State Police on Dec. 20 dashing and operating a purple mild. When he was pulled over, troopers detected a sure aroma.

As one police union later wrote:

“Councilor Rivera made statements invoking his elected place and referencing his authority over police funding…. Moreover (he) reportedly used offensive racial slurs throughout this incident, together with statements which are deeply troubling and inconsistent with the rules of range, fairness and inclusion.”

Offensive racial slurs? What extra {qualifications} does a contemporary Massachusetts Democrat want?

Not one of the POC’s particular racial slurs have been quoted in western Mass media. I known as the State Police yesterday searching for the precise incident report on Councilor Rivera.

By deadline, I had acquired nothing again. Typically I get the sensation the MSP don’t like me all that a lot.

A foul first week for the native Democrats. These of us who work for a residing can solely hope it will get worse, a lot worse.

Perhaps I’ll have that Rivera DUI by Sunday, regardless of the MSP’s greatest efforts to maintain it below wraps. , skilled courtesy and all that. However possibly Israel Rivera will make Maura neglect her BFF LaMar Cook dinner. I hear he’s a Democrat’s Democrat. Keep tuned.
