In wake of allegations, Ed Flynn strips Ricardo Arroyo of council vice presidency, chairmanships


In the wake of allegations that have rocked city politics, Boston City Council President Ed Flynn Monday stripped Councilor Ricardo Arroyo of his council vice presidency and a pair of key chairmanships of council committees, according to documents filed with the city clerk’s office.

Flynn rescinded his endorsement of Arroyo in the Suffolk district attorney’s race last week, after revelations that Arroyo was twice investigated — though never charged — for possible sexual assault as a teenager. Arroyo has denied that he ever assaulted anyone.   https://www.bostonglobe.com/2022/08/29/metro/wake-allegations-ed-flynn-strips-ricardo-arroyo-council-vice-presidency-chairmanships/?s_campaign=breakingnews:newsletter

More diversions possible, MBTA chief says as Orange Line work progresses

 


More diversions possible, MBTA chief says as Orange Line work progresses  

The MBTA will look at where else in the system a “diversion” would be appropriate to tackle long-delayed track and system repair, General Manager Steve Poftak said Sunday while touring the shuttered Orange Line with the governor.

“We’re going to take a look at where a diversion might be appropriate in other places and you know we’ll obviously work with our municipal partners and clearly communicate,” he said. “We have been doing diversions over the years, never one of the breadth of this one, I think, you know, we’ll take a look at what strategy makes the most sense.”

Since 9 p.m. on August 19th, the Orange Line has been stopped completely as crews work to replace track and upgrade signals in an attempt to remove six standing speed restrictions on the busy subway line.  https://www.bostonherald.com/2022/08/28/more-diversions-possible-mbta-chief-says-as-orange-line-work-progresses/

Sunday, August 28, 2022



 Stock Drops 68% From 52-Week High  https://www.golocalprov.com/business/spiraling-gannett-owners-of-the-projo-off-loads-450m-pension-obligations

The stock of the company has plummeted, and the company is implementing major layoffs.

The Gannett stock has plunged from a 52-week high of $7.05 to a Friday close of $2.20 — a 68% loss in value.

According to numerous media sources, including Poynter, the company is laying off 400 or more and the staff cutting has hit the Providence Journal — a newspaper that has been decimated by layoffs, buyouts and forced retirements over the past decade.

In recent weeks, the Providence Journal slashed its community calendar and the business feature - people on the move. GoLocal has filled the void and is now publishing both features.

NY Post Squirming Over Huge Democratic Win and Republicans VERY EXPENSIVE Loss

 This joke of a newspaper, The NY Post (their version of the fictional Boston Herald) tries, poorly, to besmirch the hard fought victory. Fact is, Republicans poured a small fortune into the race and were bragging that they had already won it. They didn't. They lost and the Democrats are showing strength: "


Democrats have every right to crow over their win this week in the NY-19 special election, and to hope it’s a harbinger of a less-grim Election Day this November than they’d long feared. It shows that Republicans can’t just play it safe by running against soaring crime and inflation... But the fact remains that polls showed Molinaro leading the whole way, and Ryan ran hard on abortion rights in the wake of the Supreme Court tossing Roe v. Wade and it paid off, driving up Democratic turnout enough 


Racist Johnny V is Fuming About the NY Election Loss, But He Will Never, Ever Admit It!

Racist Johnny writes: ""with the fictional Supreme Court" OK, now you've got my interest. Please tell us all exactly how the Supreme Court is "fictional" as you say? Go ahead. We'll wait..."


Joe V responds: ... why, Johnny, when you are SO allergic to facts and just shoot spitballs like a tenth grader in detention?

 Here we go, some clown with a population of 4,509,394* in 2021, Addison Mitchell McConnell III , holds up Obama's Supreme Court nominee for a pack of liars, two sexual harassers on the corrupt court, one of the harassers married to a White woman while being Black who doesn't like bi-racial marriage. 

 Well, Clarence would know, wouldn't he?

Kushner Moron

Meanwhile families are struggling with evictions
and rising rents on properties managed
by his real estate company but
let's not ask him questions about that
or about his family history.
The media is so focused on trump
that they never write about kushner's family
and particularly his father,
or about kushner's businesses.
