Joe V commentary:
How many companies is Mike McGlynn working for?
I called Combined Properties one day and asked for Mike McGlynn.
"Please hold."
She comes back "He doesn't work here."
Oh really? Why the "please hold" like he was an old friend!!!!
Then there's the 242k or so he got or gets for that other company. Gilbane or whatever
Meanwhile Mayor McGlynn - you heard that right - Burke is a puppet - McGlynn's consigliere, Mr. Rumley, appeals a demand to hand over the 27 officer names involved in what the Transcript called "Police Misconduct."
When Rumley covers for Police Misconduct, which is what he is doing, citizens damn well better ask questions of city hall.

From Breanna's press release:
Mayor's Burke's fundraising totals show her campaign is bankrolled by a very different group of people. 55% of her donations in 2019 are from outside Medford - approximately $50,000 in outside money flooding Medford to influence voters. This is seriously concerning. The details are located here: https://www.ocpf.us/Reports/DisplayReport?menuHidden=true&id=716555
To dig into the details further, 17% (over $14K) are from developers or the lobbyists and architects of developers living OUTSIDE Medford. This includes $1,000 from a representative of Combined Properties, owner of various lots subject to the haphazard Mystic Ave rezoning attempt pushed forward by Mayor Burke and withdrawn after serious questions were raised. The donation was made in May, the month before the ill-conceived plan was submitted to the City Council for approval.
There are $1,450 in receipts from Tufts leaders, including the head of community relations. These contributions were accepted despite the ongoing negotiation of the PILOT agreement, a contentious Tufts development proposal approved by the City and failed attempts to convince Tufts to share its future master plan. There is also $200 from a leader of Melrose Wakefield hospital despite the ongoing negotiations regarding the future of Lawrence Memorial.
The donation was made in June, 2019 when negotiations were unresolved.
Mayor Burke needs to explain to voters what these donations are for and what types of conversations she had about City business with donors throughout the election cycle.
