Finance chair for Mike Minogue weighs in. #mapoli
Apparently we have reached the point where sarcasm requires a fact sheet.
No, Mike Minogue is not spending $2 billion running for governor. The $2 billion was a deliberate shot at the Springfield courthouse contract.
Maybe instead of pretending Mike has a $2 billion campaign war chest, we could talk about why Massachusetts taxpayers are on the hook for a $2 billion courthouse deal in the first place.

Here’s Moulton on the ICE killing in Maine
Another American community turned into a combat zone. ICE agents shot and killed a person in the streets of Biddeford, Maine. They are acting like Trump's racist secret police force because they know they have zero accountability.
It is long past time to abolish ICE, strip them of this unchecked power, and prosecute every single agent involved to the fullest extent of the law. Biddeford deserves answers, and the American people demand justice.
Very pleased to announce that @gintautasd - veteran Mass. political reporter - will be joining @WBUR to lead our state politics news coverage. You know Gin from his daily must-read MASSterList newsletter and lots of great local scoops. We can’t wait to have him on our team.

Mark your calendars for June 16th. I’ve said it from day one: leadership doesn’t hide from competition. That’s why I’ve agreed to take part in Massachusetts’ first ever interparty primary debate with Seth Moulton. While others stay silent, we’re willing to step on stage, answer tough questions, and let the people decide who has the vision, grit, and backbone to lead this Commonwealth and this country forward. Massachusetts voters deserve real debates, real ideas, and leaders who don’t run from the microphone.
Invites still open, Ed (@SenMarkey).

🚨 NEW TOOL for U.S. legal journalists ⚖️
I turned @allyjarmanning's incredible crowdsourced Google doc on accessing state court records into an interactive map.
Check it out and let me know about any errors, missing information, or ways I can improve this thing (link below)

Very very bad look for GOP. This is not hard: Organization 101. The contested races should have been up front for exactly this reason—just in case. As delegates leave real possibility that Gov vote numbers are total BS / vastly different than they would have been at 2 pm.

MINOGUE WINS ENDORSEMENT: Mike Minogue, a wealthy former biotech executive, wins the Massachusetts Republican Party's endorsement at the party's convention. Minogue has billed himself as a political outsider. He's also set a self-financing record. #mapoli wbur.org/news/2026/04/13/mas…

Mike Minogue, a wealthy former biotech CEO, identifies as a "born again" Catholic who would bring CEO-style management to the state as a “new kind of governor.” He also says he’s “pro life.” More in my profile of the GOP candidate for governor. #mapoli wbur.org/news/2026/04/13/mas…

HIGH-END HOUSING: For the three Republicans running for Massachusetts governor this year, owning multiple homes in Boston’s tony suburbs, on beachfronts or near ski slopes, is almost a prerequisite for candidacy. #mapoli wbur.org/news/2026/04/08/mas…

From Edward R. Murrow’s broadcasts to today, CBS News Radio has been part of the foundation of American journalism. Murrow’s mic sits on display at the National Press Club as a reminder of that legacy. When an institution like that disappears, it’s a loss for the public & for journalism.
