FBI special agents in Boston arrested City Councilwoman Tania Fernandes Anderson on public corruption charges. She was indicted on five counts of aiding and abetting wire fraud. She was also accused of one count of aiding and abetting theft of federal monies in connection with a kickback scheme.

Fun fact, she is an illegal immigrant African Muslim. Her tenure on the City Council has mainly consisted of "picking a lot of pointless fights," playing the race card and skating on crude identity politics.

Fun fact #2, she is married to Tanzerious Anderson, a convict who is serving a life sentence without the possibility of parole for first-degree murder. The two married while Tanzerious was already incarcerated.

Fun fact #3, she's already had multiple corruption issues, including securing municipal positions for her sister and her son, failing to report campaign contributions, and accepting campaign contributions over the legal limit.

Fun fact #4, she once wanted to honor Mahsa Amini, the young Iranian woman who died in custody after being arrested for not wearing a hijab properly. Her brilliant idea for commemorating Amini? Sponsoring a resolution calling for a "Boston Hijab Day."

Fun fact #5, she characterized the October 7 attacks as a "military operation" and has encouraged Boston Public Schools students to engage in pro-Palestinian protests.

If you want to know why I hate the left so much, well...it's because I vigorously overconsume rightwing media and suffer from habitual online syndrome.

But also, because of people like these.

As far as Boston politicians go though, she's sadly not the worst...that goes to the City Councilwoman who crashed her car into someone's home while driving without a license:

----

Former Boston City Councilor Kendra Lara will not face jail time in connection with a crash in 2023, but she must apologize to the woman whose home she barreled into, court records show.

On Wednesday, Lara pleaded guilty in West Roxbury Municipal Court to driving with a suspended license. Judge Kathleen E. Coffey, however, dismissed charges of operating an uninsured car and permitting injury to a child.

Judge Coffey sentenced Lara, 34, to “administrative probation” and ordered her to pen a letter of apology to the homeowner, Georgia Kalogerakis, within 30 days.

Lara was driving more than double the 25 mph speed limit when she crashed her Honda sedan into a home on Centre Street in Jamaica Plain in June 2023, according to police. Investigators also said that her 7-year-old son was not adequately restrained in a booster seat, and he had to go to the hospital with injuries.

In October 2023, prosecutors agreed to drop initial charges of the reckless operation of a motor vehicle, injury to a child while driving, and speeding.

Four lengthy Boston police bodycam videos showed officers speaking with Lara in the moments after the crash and an interview with a man who claimed the councilor was driving “like a bat out of hell” before she struck a house on Centre Street on June 30.

Lara has not held a valid driver’s license since 2013, yet she “regularly” drove to work at Boston City Hall in a dark gray Honda Civic, the same make and model of the car involved in the crash, a city spokesperson previously told Boston 25. Lara denied that accusation.

does seem though that black people overwhelmingly vote for the white politicians that are shit.

That might be changing though.
