Marty Walsh publicly endorsed Frank Baker and Alexandra Valdez. But the super PAC linked to Walsh has been spending exclusively on Frank Baker and Erin Murphy. Not one dime has been directed to Valdez. See "Expenditures" and click on each "source" report. ocpf.us/filers?q=81149

"The inaction has likely cost Boston residents at least $785,000 in total unnecessary flood insurance costs since the city missed its 2021 self-imposed deadline..." 2021. The same year that BPDA finally approved mandatory resiliency guidelines.

Councilor Julia Mejia raised the issue of civility between Councilors yesterday. It was appreciated, at least by me. As an example, imagine Councilors saying “I do my best to attend hearings,” rather than deriding colleagues for not attending a cherry-picked hearing.

Not difficult to understand how infantile public discourse is when Herald-fueled vitriol regards one state employee out of 50,000; one police cruiser torched by teens from RI; a new cycle lane somewhere; and crime and addiction in one square mile out of 272 total citywide.

Just heartbreaking, as the most vulnerable communities continue to be targeted with ignorance and hate. bostonglobe.com/2025/10/29/met…

NEWS of the DAY Marty Walsh drew headlines for endorsements of Frank Baker and Alexandra Valdez, claiming to the Globe he sought "balance." The super PAC linked to Walsh has been contributing heavily to Baker and Murphy exclusively, not one dime to Valdez. How about Valdez?

And why does this matter to me? Because I think Alexandra Valdez would be a terrific At-Large Councilor. I endorsed Valdez months ago. Walsh should invest in the Valdez campaign in equal measure to Frank Baker if he's going to grab headlines about his support for her campaign.

Trump/MAGA superfan Jim Davis of New Balance just dropped $100,000 on the superPAC tied to Marty Walsh, the one pouring $$$$$ into Frank Baker and Erin Murphy campaigns. Not one cent to Alexandra Valdez, who Walsh endorsed along with Baker. Is Marty going to disclose what's up?

I'm no expert in politics, but could Marty Walsh be considering a run for Governor? This super PAC can't be all about an election only two months from its formation.

Marty Walsh considered a run for governor in the 2022 election, a possibility floated in late 2021. Could Trump/MAGA fanboy Jim Davis be backing Marty Walsh for Governor? Marty should fess up about the super PAC run by his former Chief of Staff. politico.com/news/2021/12/0…

Here's how the super PAC tied to Marty Walsh (now backed by $100,000 from Trump/MAGA fanboy Jim Davis) has been spending, per OCPF. Walsh grabbed headlines for endorsing Baker and Alexandra Valdez, but the superPAC tied to him and a MAGA superstar hasn't spent a dime on Valdez.

Shameless lawsuit by former board members against Midway Studios’ current board was DENIED by a judge this wk. Info revealed via discovery was a disgrace. Also: Midway residents have replaced a self-aggrandizing narrative with an honest retelling of the project’s 20-yr history.
