The Massachusetts State Police is under fire after a scandalous incident involving secret recordings was recently disclosed. Many are calling for the abolition of the MSP and the creation of a new state-wide investigative agency with fresh leadership and personnel. Harvey A. Silverglate of Cambridge suggests that once corruption and incompetence have deeply rooted themselves in a government agency, reform is nearly impossible and starting from scratch is the only solution.

In terms of politics, there is strong support for J.D. Vance as the vice presidential candidate, with many seeing this as a moment to embrace true “MAGA” values such as America-first policies, a strong economy, and reduced power in Washington in favor of states’ rights. Despite concerns that Vance may be too closely aligned with Trump, some believe that his selection as VP may actually allow Trump to adopt a more unifying and composed persona during the election cycle. This move could solidify the future of the GOP as a MAGA-focused party beyond 2028.

On the infrastructure front, the pledge of one billion dollars towards replacing the Sagamore and Bourne Bridges in Massachusetts is facing criticism as being too little, too late. Some fear that the estimated cost of $4.2 billion could easily balloon, citing the previous Big Dig project that went vastly over budget. The endorsement of President Biden by Senators Elizabeth Warren and Ed Markey in exchange for the bridge funding has also garnered skepticism and raised questions about the true motivations behind such political moves.
