001all politics is local with John featherston an in-depth and comprehensive look at Massachusetts political news and current events hi and welcome to another edition of all politics is local I'm your host John featherston with the distinct pleasure and honor to be joined by Mike Adams today Mike is everybody knows is a broadcasting Legend welcome Mike well not everybody knows that and that's it's a shame so let's just tell them now sure tell them yeah well I I worked at wbii for 23 years had a lot of fun doing that talking about sports and uh worked at a a TV network called NECN back in the 90s and did a show called Mike Adam Sports World so I've been kicking around a little bit but the things we're going to talk to you about John are

002much more important than anything having to do with sports anything did you by the way did you see how awful that NBA Allstar broadcast was last night I the NBA has become unwatchable for me and you know big Celtics fan enjoyed watching the Celtics but I I I don't the NBA does nothing for me anymore no and it was weird last night it was like a circus atmosphere it wasn't about a basketball game it was about showing off but meanwhile you are probably the guy that I respect most when it comes to political positions and knowledge of of what's going on in the Commonwealth of Massachusetts thus you're a Twitter handle all politics is local and this program well that was very nice of you so you would you describe yourself as a Libertarian yeah

003Centrist libertarian C libertarian uh you know not a hardcore libertarian but I do believe in smaller government and the centrest part is the I'm I think I'm a social moderate I don't I think there should be a safety net uh but I it's when it gets to be used and abused and Fraud and Abuse and all that bad stuff that can happen with money going out the door that's where I draw the line because I'm a fiscal conservative no question which leads us into our first topic and it's the greatest thing I think I've seen in my lifetime in politics Doge Doge the word itself is kind of getting cute now people are liking it more and more as they figure out what it is although I will say that the left wing is freaking

004out John because they know The Jig Is up the money is no longer going to be as easy for them to uh hide and accumulate for their various programs doge is unbelievable and the numbers are staggering anybody should pay attention to do if you're extreme radical conservative or if you're Ultra uh wacko you know socialist and anybody in between of those things everybody should be paying attention to where this is going because it's not Republican a Democrat a socialist agenda this is just corruption gone wild it's your money too it's it's everybody's money and everybody should be mad about it because this is the byproduct of years probably 30 years of politicians not knowing what they're voting on you know Nancy Pelosi we have to pass the bill to know what's in the bill this

005is that's what this is and you know honestly it it seems to me like all those weird uh causes they were giving money to in foreign countries should be line by line items with up or down votes thumbs up or thumbs down votes that everybody has to answer for it because it's a ridiculous waste of money when there are people in this country that need money all politics is local the reason why I've named this show for this for years we have a local town meeting and the town has the opportunity to come sit in a room and vote up or down on the budget and if there's questions on the budget people are welcome to come up to the microphone and speak to the moderator and and have the town manager and the board

006of Selectmen answer questions about the budget why we can't do that on the federal level is just because we've become lazy and we've become complacent and that's why we have these huge deficits that we have now the party the parties have become I say parties just to be inclusive have become giant money laundering machines uh for whatever cause they feel is more most appropriate but it's all based on political power is what they're trying to do and it's our money as taxpayers and this Elon Musk is now taking more heat than anybody except for Trump that I've ever seen in my life this guy is getting hammered and you know he's not the world's richest man because he's stupid and he certainly knows how to cut corners and and save money as a businessman but

007to save the government the kind of money we're talking about right now this is the tip of the iceberg what we've been hearing did you see Maxine Waters with her wig falling off of her head in front in front of the Department of Education just going on and on about how Elon Musk has yours and my social security number you mean like how my bank has my social security number you mean like how the DMV has my social security number your doctor your mortgage company like a lot of people have our social security numbers and do you really think Elon Musk is GNA steal from Mike Adams or John fell do you think he needs the poultry sums of money that we might have in our bank accounts compar but you know this guy is

008obviously very smart individual there's no question about it he's not getting paid for this job so but people are just every up and down the street on the left say well what about this this is going to get CAU on this just calm down and wait see the numbers before you react because uh it's trillions I am ecstatic about Doge but I also have to be fair because one thing in all politics is local I'm an equal opportunity person to point stuff out Elon Musk if you're going to go into the Oval Office take your hat off leave your kid at home put on a jacket and tie I'm not saying a suit kid and don't have your son wipe his boogers on the on the desk of the president of the United States do

009humanize him a little bit it does humanize him but I mean there's a time and place for everything and you know what I got to tell you this really quick story though my son Scott who's now an full-grown adult when he was a little kid maybe three four years old I had a brand new car I loved it it was a Volvo and I L was driving I looked over and I see him pick his nose and then reach under the seat of the Volvo what little boy doesn't do that or grown man don't wipe your boogers in my car he turns to me and he goes he must have been three he goes I wiped them all over this car he's a kid and as cute as that little kid is I think you're

010right about the you know it detracts from the messaging you're trying to do from the M but the Doge thing is huge John I'm big on it I you know I I I and you see certain people screeching about it one of them is one of our Senators Elizabeth Warren yeah we could do hours of topic on Elizabeth Warren but why don't you uh inform the uh viewing public about uh Elizabeth Warren as I refer to as the fake Indian yeah liwaa do you think she's bought and paid for by big Pharma I know she is in that there they've already revealed the fact that she's the third she received the third most money Bernie Sanders leading the pack in money donated to the campaign by big Pharma uh I think Rafael warno came in

011second and just right behind rafhael waro and money donated to his campaign by big farmer was Elizabeth Warren so when she gets on and acts all crazy and you see the sound bites with her all the time she gets like nutty shaky uh talking about uh interview rather questioning Robert F Kennedy Jr on the you on his confirmation hearing she was insane in that moment um but clearly she has something to hide when it comes to her connection to Big farmer and in every respect she just automatically goes for the kneecaps as best she can any Donald Trump ever said or planned to do is is a threat to our democracy you know and it's it's insane to watch her uh but then again Massachusetts has some very unusual U representation in the national government

012Ed Mary Ed Mary is the ice cream well I have a quote from him can I read this please Democratic senator Ed Mary says quote public school is not a con job it's equality for every student he apparently hasn't been to some of the schools that I've been to uh and he went to a private school so what would he know about public schools if he didn't go to one right I don't know what does Ed Marky know about Massachusetts I don't think Ed marky's been in Massachusetts for more than maybe a night in like 30 years so I mean but let's get back to Elizabeth Warren because if Elizabeth Warren got 1, 224,000 from Big Pharma how come she can't afford more than two different outfits well that's a good question yeah you know

013I think it's maybe it's time for her to upgrade her tee as well do some Renovations uh you know why by by the way you know why she wears feathers just to keep her Wigwam okay I'm sorry see that I'm we got to we got to put it in the soundtrack that's right uh why we're dumping on and we could do it all all afternoon uh Massachusetts uh elected officials I will call them yeah uh one of my favor ones to pick on because I I'll say it she's a Flatout racist aana Presley she is a racist I believe you know she Eno does not like white people no and it's clear that she doesn't and every time she opens her mouth it's kind of like and that racism is bad no matter which side

014of the coin you're looking at Joy Reed never learned that lesson she still has a job but Ayanna Pressley has seems to have equal amount of anger uh in in her presentation it's like and everything always boils down to uh you know slavery 150 years ago reparations reparations y it's just it's just it's counterproductive or it's unproductive completely when she opens her mouth but she's been in office now for more than six years name me one accomplishment that she has done well I can name you one I have it written down right here on this see this notes this I do this is where she Ayanna Presley uh has been responsible for the establishment of the pride that's p r yde it's a senior housing um facility for lgbtq seniors uh and she was able

015to raise $850,000 so that the pride p r yde uh could put up people who are you know they're elderly people so more power to them they have a place to live that's nice but it's for LGBT people not everybody so I again it's a it's a is that the biggest priority in my and listen everybody needs a a roof over their head everybody needs a home I don't care gay straight or anything everybody needs a home to live but is if that's all you've accomplished in more than six years working for the federal government maybe a little less you know attacking people and you know posting things that you're you're going to fight and okay you don't like Donald Trump but you know I I've had this conversation with Jim McGovern for many many

016years okay Jim McGovern does not like Donald Trump Jim McGovern's entitled to his opinion but I have challenged Jim McGovern okay you don't like them you don't have to like them but you still have to represent the people of your district and you still if you're were not willing to pick up a phone and have a conversation or meet for lunch or have a dinner you're not doing your job well that's right and you're not doing your job and not only that but uh you know you can't just automatically lamb base somebody for having a different viewpoint which is what they do like when it comes to uh anything Donald Trump says is automatically no good right and he's and he's he's a jerk and he's a Nazi and he's a racist and all they

017they just start with immediately the attacks on Donald Trump the person without listening to what he's proposing or why he what he's trying to accomplish by his proposals and that's just ridiculous uh but in Ayan Presley's case it's clear that she is a race uh a industry race baiter and she throws the stuff out there because it gets her more clicks amongst those MSNBC Watchers or what have you and that increases her power and what she thinks is popularity I disagree I think that there's a lot of people out there that just automatically say what why do you hate white people it's racist to do that it's not right if Donald Trump came out today and told you oxygen was good Presley and her followers and you know the squad they would all stop breathing

018today I mean I mean just because just because Donald Trump said it you know and listen I agree with a lot of things that Donald Trump says I don't agree with everything Donald I don't agree with everything Mike Adams says I don't agree with everything that should I should but I should but I mean but that is politics that is working towards the middle is what has always made this country great and something has happened in the last 30 35 years where that has has broken down to the detriment that you need a doge that you we are no longer perceived you know at you know internationally as the superpower that we are I think we're getting back to that now but it's okay to disagree with somebody it's okay not to you know like

019somebody but you still got to do your job well and it all reverts back to stupidity in making bad decisions and and misspending American taxpayer money or Commonwealth of Massachusetts taxpayers money as more has done we talk about this with the the immigration situation now it's one thing to say we're losing population in Massachusetts because the taxes are too high and that is a known fact that 27,000 people left Massachusetts because they fiscally couldn't stand it anymore but what they don't know is that those 27,000 people were replaced by 67,000 illegal immigrants who are not only you know they don't have social security numbers they don't have they do have a driver's license though thanks to morah Healy which at Great cost to the taxpayer hiring interpreters for the DMV or the RMV uh and

020so they have cars and they have they have I don't know if they have insurance but they have their driver's license and they're all in in Massachusetts living in as you know as somebody who ran a migrant sh shelter in in marbor it's an amazing amount of money that is now added to the budget 1.8 billion dollar I believe in the last year year and a half year and a half y that morah added to the taxpayer burden in order to accommodate the right to shelter law in Massachusetts that's a lot of money for a state budget since 2003 the Commonwealth of Massachusetts has allocated more than $3.5 billion dollar towards the migrant thing to accommodate them to accommodate them and feed them with still no end result what is the end result of all

021this because you're not going to find housing for everybody you know8 weeks ago 2 days after Christmas a gentleman was found in r with an AR-15 and enough fenel to kill the entire population of Massachusetts and Mory Hy comes out and says we're going to do reform we're going to you know do background checks on people we're going to limit stays in the shelters you fast forward to last Thursday night the Senate approves the bill already approved by the house for another $425 million to fund the Healy hotels or the migrant shelters until the end of July of this year okay now then what what happens at the end of July there is no more money left in the rainy day fund where do those people go where do those people go and what is

022the taxpayer of Massachusetts at that point will be over4 billion spent what what does the taxpayer benefit from that and you could even make the case that what do the migrants benefit from this the migrants have been set up to fail by Mor healing and it almost feels like it's by Design because to your point you know about the population the only reason that Massachusetts grew in population is because you're bringing migrants here that's it and it's already a state that has one out of five people in that live in Massachusetts were born in another country now I'm not saying look as you know and I know I I come from immigrants too mine came here in 1620 on the Mayflower it's perfectly okay we are a country of immigrants however there's got to be

023a limit to who you're bringing you got to know who you're bringing in you got to know who they are where they are what they do you know it's it's quality control thing if you just bring in all these people and and put them on on you know in housing and on the streets and jobless or whatever you you don't have a plan for those folks and and if you're if you're charging the taxpayers to support these people then you're doing yourself a disservice as well on the other side of the economic structure it's it's it's costing us it's not $4 million it's 4 billion with a capital B okay and there's a lot of problems in Massachusetts I will tell you that the Mental Health crisis in Massachusetts is probably the biggest crisis in

024mental you you put kids in a mask and in front of a a zoom computer for two years kids in middle school now that went through Co a lot of them are messed up Y A lot of them are messed up way behind way behind and but just even mentally messed up there was there's addiction problems in the state you know there's gambling addiction problems there's you know uh alcohol and Canabis addiction problems in this I'm not saying you don't take care of migrants I'm not saying you don't help people because that's been my Mantra in my whole life of Public Service you do you do have to help people but it you have to have a cause to you know an end game to like okay this is this is what the plan is

025there still is no plan yet only eight of the state senators voted for the bill that was proposed to make sure that the benefits of the shelter program went to Massachusetts residents not illegals the rest all voted nay borders are Tom homman on Friday morning with New York mayor mayor Adam sitting right next to him literally said on Fox News there is no more funding of Migrant shelters Federal money coming in for migrant shelters so the money's been cut off New York is closing migrant hotels yeah where do you think all of those people are going to go why you why why didn't Joe Biden realize that when you bring 10 million illegal aliens into this country all at once that there's going to be an impact financially Nationwide on the taxpayer but also locally

026because all politics is local you bring in a whole bunch of immigrants in Massachusetts leads the world in that the school systems suffer the school school uh classroom sizes get more crowded and less interpretive you got to have an interpreter in the classrooms now because a lot of the people don't speak English whether Biden did know what he was doing he think he did on purpose and the media doesn't like to talk about it the reason why Biden opened the borders is he wanted to ensure that the Democratic party kept its power base and he wants to increase the population throughout the states and if you look at the states that he sent in the middle of the night on flights it wasn't people walking over the Border he flew people into these states he

027wants to grow Senate and uh Congress seats and it's it's anybody who is willing to do 2 minutes worth of leg work because you won't see it on the you know the Nightly News you won't see it on the liberal media heck you you know Boston media doesn't even want to you know carry uh stories about you know the migrants shelter crimes that are happening every single day that they're happening well I'm glad you mentioned that because you more than anybody else are aware of and have been in in in contact with people regarding the pous stories that have gone on in some of these shelters rape murder drug pedaling you know sex trafficking of children yep you've I've seen it all you've been a witness to it and that what that's what makes you

028an authority on exactly how bad this problem is but how great is Tom homman he's coming in here I mean I'll just give you some examples of some of the fine people that are brought in under this program a Brazilian national convicted for his role in murdering 11 people mostly teenagers has pleaded guilty in Boston federal court for lying on his Asylum application at an immigration hearing he's a murderer okay so he's lying on an application do we expect him to tell the truth Antonio Jose De Vidal filo 31-year-old known for his involvement in the 2015 Slaughter in Brazil has lived in Malden Massachusetts which is where Ed Mary lives and I'm sure they probably almost bumped into each other on the streets but they're taking them off the street and they finally I mean

029the list is endless of course but he's just one guy walking around because he was released and set back they've arrested him in Ryan New Hampshire but he's had been living in Malden uh and he's been for 15 20 years now he's been skating around the country with fake driver's licenses trying to accomplish criminal activities an illegal immigrant has CED to being a fenel delivery boy for another man accused of pushing tens of thousands of f fenel pills in the Boston area Freddy artmo Guerrero sto a national of the Dominican pleaded guilty with conspiracy to distribute fenel now we all know fenel is a deadly drug the charges carry a minimum prison term of 10 years up to life and uh he's scheduled for sentencing in federal court in Boston on May 12th these are

030these are tip of the iceberg moments here but it there until someone goes out there and rouss these guys and Ice gets some kind of of U cooperation from the powers that be in Massachusetts we're never going to clean up this mess so now finally Tom homman and the guy's unbelievable he's a bulldog he's out there saying we're going to get worst the worst people first which is smart and he's all over the country now getting people off the streets that shouldn't be here to begin with well you hear this you know we're a welcoming Community I'm a welcoming human being you know I I welcome everybody anybody who follows the law as I welcome right you look at Somerville you know you've got something there about a gentleman that was picked up in Somerville

031as well you know in Somerville is now is oh woe is us you know oh ice is terrible they're coming to our community no I applaud ice for coming to Comm because not only is ice doing a dangerous job they're restoring Law and Order to your streets and if you're a restaurant owner that hired illegals and you now don't have help I don't feel bad for you okay go out and do follow the law I follow the law Mike Adams follows the law you know if if the worst I do is you know speed a little bit over the you know then if I but if I do give me a ticket and hold me accountable but you know this yes we we're a welcoming Nation we're all migrants here you mentioned sum we have

032to follow the laws that's right the laws are there for a reason the minute you don't the the Democrats are good at saying no one's Above the Law well except the 10 million people that cross the border they're Above the Law oh Hunter Biden he's Above the Law you know it's just ridiculous uh hypocrisy uh you mentioned Somerville Boston immigration officials blasting Somerville which is a sanctuary City by the way they're welcoming that means they allow all different kinds of birds to live in the trees here it's a sanctuary uh and they're also blasting Salem officials for allowing migrant assault and child rape suspects to walk free who Buran caramuru age 27 recently grabbed in Somerville by boston-based Ice en enforcement and they he now faces deportation the Turkish National was arraigned in late December

033for assault and battery on an intellectually disabled person and witness intimidation uh I said he was set free you know as is the custom in Massachusetts set him free then ask questions later but they tracked him down in January they wanted him off the streets another one here uh a Guatemalan National charge with three counts of forcible rape of a child and three counts of aggravated rape of a child has also been arrested by immigration agents out of Boston Jose Fernando Perez of Framingham was led out of the Essex County Jail in Salem he too was tracked down by uh the immigration officers in Donald Trump's worst first initiative where were we're we're recording this podcast we are less than a mile away from the city limit of Framingham and this guy has been walking

034the streets for years in Framingham and he's a child rapist how does anybody have any problem with ice picking this guy up oh that's right and if you do have a problem with it I have a problem with you and you've been on national news regarding a story that happened in the Marboro holiday in where you were in charge of the shelter program and you reported to the police an incident whereby a a man a Haitian man MH raped his own daughter impregnated her yet didn't get arrested for eight months for eight months they did move him to another shelter which I moved him to another you did unfortunately yeah but that was what they told had to be done and you know it's it's certainly not about me but I think if we hadn't

035made national news with that story he'd still be walking the street right he'd still be we I had to literally shame the attorney general and the governor to act on this when the Boston Globe finally wrote an article about it then something happened Boston globe's way behind the eightball on all of this stuff and there and being the big news source from a newspaper perspective in Massachusetts you'd think they would be on top of this story to earn some credibility uh but why is Massachusetts so uh averse to obviously proper behavior in a situation like a a child getting raped by your own father Mike if if I knew I would it's it's so frustrating to me you know I certainly don't know as many media pre personnel as you do but I do know

036a few media people and I've reached out to them in the local like this this story has gone National it's been on every news national news story but if you don't pay attention to national news and you only pay attention to local news you don't know this has happened I've reached out to local people here that I've known or people that you know know people and oh this is a good story we'll get back to you and the phone don't ring it's the Legacy Media in Boston afraid of losing their access to morah Healing right and and that's the only thing that it can be is they're afraid of losing their AES and they I have never heard a Legacy Media Station in Boston ask more Healy about the man who impregnated his own daughter

037the AR-15 guy with fenel the guy who crashed his car into my office the guy who raped another person down in Totton I've never heard anybody ask the question just a question not even an interrogate you know hey what what happened in Totton with that rapist nobody has ever asked her that so the public hears well Mor's proposing changes and mor is demanding accountability but there is inter action and then then the Boston media doesn't even report on the fact that she said8 weeks ago that she was going to piix something she never fixed it so the general public just goes well she said she was going to fix it so she's going to fix it morah he's word is not her bond and it's it's it's never been a proof of any forthcoming action

038uh to positively affect these situations now the all politics is local thing we go to what's happening in in Boston with with mayor woo mayor Woo is is like this little mini dictator now they had a 12 to1 vote against making sure that the shelter money went only to Massachusetts residents the only dissenting vote was Ed Flynn so they lose 12 to1 in other words that no that money can continue to go to migrants ahead of ahead of massachusett citizens how can how can Michelle woo just by mandate throw that down there and say this is what we're going to do and have the council say oh yeah she's right 12 to1 against fairness to Massachusetts citizens the Boston city council is that that's a you could do a a Netflix movie about that because

039they are pay to play hacks because you look at Boston under manino and I was pretty friendly with minino I I remember once saying to manino I was like you know what you're one of the few Democrats I really like you know and like he was very likable he was a very likable guy but he ran a tight ship Law and Order clean streets you know no Shenanigans yeah I mean did he do things you know you know some but he ran a nice city and you look at the city that monino had as as the mayor on his last day and you look at Boston today you cannot tell me your eyes just tell you the whole story damage is done now you look at I was in Boston last week Newberry Street does

040not look like Newberry Street anymore the streets are not as clean as they used to be there's potholes everywhere and okay you wanted woo you got wo instead you know I mean wo like so you know and they have nothing good to report the school test scores are down the you know the the truy in is like 40% and they they say well they say Boston's crime rate is got well you know what a lot of the crime in Boston isn't being taking place in Boston as we know from these stories the criminals are now scattered around Boston and they're everywhere in Massachusetts and many of them are illegal immigrants and that has to be dealt now the one thing you don't want to do is say oh well you know I'm anti-immigrant no I

041I'm anti- illegal immigrant I'm anti- anything illegal well but I mean the fact is we don't like it's not a dislike of immigrants we have we love immigrants if they're legal do whatever you want and come here and we welcome you with open arms you know I've told the story at times you know my you know there were a lot of good things about working in a migrant shelter you saw a lot of good story and then when you were actually able to help a family get their kid into school learn English find a job find a place to live it's a great American story and I'll tell you that 98% of the people that I worked with were great people M and good for them they were told to come here by America and

042everything was free it's not their fault and then you help them find a job and get a house great story but the 2% of people that rape their daughter domestic violence steal steal I don't care if one guy tried to kill you with his car with this yeah came very close you know by the grace of God you know you you were there doing good things for people uh and in a responsible way the one thing about you John is that you're you're truthful you're honest you're straightforward you don't have an ax to grind against individuals it's policy that you object to but you're you're against Bad policy and I'm against bad but bad policy I mean government is to help the people but Ronald Reagan said it the the most dangerous uh you know

043words in the English language is I am here for the government and I'm here to help because the government doesn't help anymore it just it has agendas and I think we've got to get back and it makes everything cost twice as much it makes things cost but what I think what we want to accomplish with you on this podcast is we want to be if you don't hear it on the Boston media come to all politics is local with John and Mike and you're going to hear it you know because we're going to call it out if it's if it's not being discussed in the local media this will be your source to go to we'll have candidate guests we'll have uh experts coming on to talk about it because you're not getting the full

044story in the Boston Globe or the Legacy Media here in Boston no and the Harold try as they might you know they're not the Boston Globe you know as far as the positioning in this Marketplace and it's it's really shameful that the Boston Globe doesn't do a better job at reporting both sides it's typical kind of a Massachusetts which is a onep party State and I think it's important for us to make any progress here to have it be a two-party State as best we can and to find people you know once you have a onep party system everybody gets the pay raise they want cuz cuz who's going to say no and no one's going to argue with bad policy because who's going to say no it's a it's a very dire situation it's

045going to be California East if we don't watch out for it but what you'll get here is you'll get truth you'll get honest opinion you get information you can't get anywhere else and you'll get people who are especially you John well-meaning people when it comes to educating the population I got to tell you when I was a selectman which was probably more than 12 years ago now every every and I stress the word every Board of selectman meeting that I had there was a reporter in the room the Metro West Daily News right every meeting there hasn't been a reporter in a select board meeting in five six years Co killed the local newspapers yeah there Metro West Daily News was a pretty you know welltoo you know newspaper in the Metro West area you

046you see it you see it now up in LOL You See It Up in peid there is no more local media so if the local media isn't reporting on your board of Selectmen your City Council meetings that just empowers bad behavior with your politicians because not that I ever was worried you know what I said in a meeting but the next morning you knew what I did you knew what I said or you knew what you know the Framingham bard of selectman did there was some accountability there was news on it now nobody has any idea what's going on in their back we're going to change all that you and me we're going to make this a place where people can come and get their opinions out no matter which party they belong to and

048coin and uh we're going to have a a lot of fun doing this because there's a lot of information that has yet to get out a lot to get out and you'll be able to find this podcast on iHeart radio Apple podcast Spotify uh so you YouTube we're going to do it as a video because I look really good on camera don't I you know I was made for YouTube made for YouTube that's what they tell me let's close out the segment on one last thing because we didn't get a chance to go to it but I think we really have to do what is going on in Worcester Massachusetts oh you know it's funny because I do a lot of driving in Worcester I uh enjoy the potholes um in Worcester they've had a

049sudden emergence of uh the the moniker a sanctuary City for lgpt l i k the alphabet soup lgbtq can't we just make it you know queer just say because that's what the Q stands for correct simplify just genericize it um they had a big meeting the other day and uh people were really going going a little crazy they were they're worried about their lives well you have to save us I don't I don't remember hearing about anybody threatening to kill anybody in the LGBT community in Worcester have you no well the people Worcester worried about is that a lot of migrants who rape children are sent to Worcester that's what you should be worried about yeah that's true yeah but I don't detect any anim you know any different animosity in Worcester than I do

050anywhere else for people who were of that ilk because nobody cares about that but no one's out to kill you either no and they're acting like oh we're in danger and and of course Worcester now is going to be known as The Sanctuary City for l lgbtq Comm community so they'll get more people there that are lgbtq so what does that do though nothing I mean what did it differ do going to hire a different police force did people stop going to Province Town because it was known as a a gay you know community no of course not it's ridiculous but it's also kind of sad in a way that these people get up there and get all this national attention based on a fox fear of some evil that's going to be done to
