Battenfeld: Immigrant program shows Boston Mayor Wu’s national ambitions (opens the original)
Read excerpt
A Wu administration program to train immigrants — legal and illegal — into becoming political advocates on the taxpayer dime is the latest example of Democrats bolstering their base with loyal party acolytes. The program, Immigrants Lead Boston, was started by the Marty Walsh administration but now is being aggressively pushed by progressive leader Michelle Wu. Party leaders like Wu are using the program and others like these to win favor with immigrants and turn them into supporters at the ball
Battenfeld: Maura Healey, Mike Minogue running from tough questions (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Democrat Maura Healey and Republican Mike Minogue are both running — and not just for governor. Healey is running away from questions about her lax immigration policies, and Minogue is running from Donald Trump. Both are legitimate issues and voters deserve to have answers.

Battenfeld: President Trump struggles to hold panicking GOP together (opens the original)

Read excerpt
Maura Healey’s sudden conversion into a tax-cutting champion — which she blames on President Donald Trump — is a crock. Healey’s call for a suspension of the gas tax for two months — conveniently until right after Election Day — is simply an excuse for her to link her favorite punching bag Trump to her GOP opponent, Mike Minogue. Does the Democratic governor really care about Massachusetts motorists getting a much-needed break at the pumps? Of course not. If she did, then why did she previously
Battenfeld: Donald Trump’s media ban just following lead of Barack Obama (opens the original)
Read excerpt
President Donald Trump is not the only pol to punish reporters for biased coverage or reward them for sycophantic stories — former President Barack Obama and other Democrats have repeatedly tried similar tactics. Trump is just following the lead of Obama, who refused to give Fox News the same access at the White House, banning them from landing interviews and asking questions during press scrums. Trump is also just taking a page out of the Michelle Wu-Maura Healey playbook, doing interviews only
