    VOTE THE TURTLE OUT OF OFFICE! The war on drugs is an insult to the intelligence of the American people. There are mountains of evidence proving that the biggest importers of harmful, addictive, mind diminishing street drugs is the government. The drug laws that exist do not apply t o the government agencies that bring these substances to our country. They are only designed to keep everyone else from this extremely lucrative business and give the establishment another reason to oppress people.

    Three things to watch at the GOP-VENTION – HOUSE passes $41B budget – STATIE tax trouble 04/27/2018 07:08 AM EDT By Lauren Dezenski  ( ldezenski@politico.com ; @LaurenDezenski) with Brent D. Griffiths ( bgriffiths@politico.com ; @BrentGriffiths) TGIF, MASSACHUSETTS. IT'S GOP-VENTION WEEKEND -  Are you ready? More than 2,400 Massachusetts Republicans are headed to the City of Seven Hills this weekend for the state GOP convention - the confab that not only will seed the September primary ballot, but also give a peek into the hearts and minds of state Republican activists (all with the sweet, sweet convenience of being centrally located inside Worcester's DCU Center). And so, here are my three things to watch as we head into this weekend: - Trump's shadow . Gov.  Charlie Baker , the de-facto head of the state party, has taken pains to maintain daylight between himself and the president (and based off poll numbers, it appears to be working). But in a room fu...

    BAKER’s convention rebuke — KOH airs first TV ad — WARREN’s al fresco town hall 04/30/2018 07:11 AM EDT By Lauren Dezenski  ( ldezenski@politico.com ; @LaurenDezenski) with Brent D. Griffiths ( bgriffiths@politico.com ; @BrentGriffiths) GOOD MORNING, MASSACHUSETTS. BAKER'S CONVENTION REBUKE AND A HINT AT WHAT'S TO COME - Charlie Baker  may be the most popular governor in America, but some Republicans gathered in Worcester on Saturday at the GOP State Convention sent him a message: not everyone's on-board. The election of controversial anti-LGBT pastor  Scott Lively  - who delivered a speech rebuking Baker and in full-throated support of  Donald Trump  - appeared to play out as a proxy for many of the delegates still frustrated with Baker's lack of interest in the Trump train. The Lively-Trump connection was anything but subtle. Throughout the concourse and hall of the DCU Center on Saturday, many wearing red Make America Great Again hats al...
