By Michael Gaffney One would think that with a list of accomplishments a mile long, an 88% approval rating with republicans, and the total vindication of the Mueller witch-hunt that the Never Trump losers would finally shut up: Best economy ever Supreme Court Justice Gorsuch Supreme Court Justice Kavanaugh Energy Independence Tax cuts Record stock [...]
By Michael Gaffney Let’s be honest about what makes the other two-thirds of Worcester unattractive to live in. It’s trash. I’m not writing about the west side with the manicured lawns where the majority homeowners’ biggest complaint about trash is when it blows out of a recycling bin or the cheaply made, but overly expensive [...]
By Michael Gaffney Just last week, noted that Senator Warren wasn’t getting any love in Worcester. A recent granite state poll put her at 5% in New Hampshire, a drop of 12% from the prior poll. If she can’t win New Hampshire with its Boston media market, she’s done and she knows it. Hence her [...]

By Michael Gaffney Rep. Jim McGovern joins the anti-American crowd, supports Rep. Ilhan Omar's statement that the attack on America on 9/11 was just "some people did something". Apparently, President Trump tweeting Omar's own words is hate speech in McGovern's world. He's right! The words Omar used to describe the loss of nearly 3,000 Americans that were [...]
By Michael Gaffney Before any of the Aidan-riders get up in arms about me writing a blog about his page views, he specifically asked me to do so (and, as will be shown later, he reached out to me): He denies ever having a hit counter on his blog, but as you can see [...]
By Michael Gaffney [Disclaimer: I don’t know John Monfredo. I’ve never had a conversation with John Monfredo. At most he may have said “hello” to me a few times while at City events.] Well, the worst of the worst of Worcester—the evil, hate-filled, race-baiting crew of opportunistic liars aka the “racist cabal” (Rivera, Comparetto, Encarnacion, [...]
By Michael Gaffney If the politicians in Worcester weren’t so busy engaging in general pettiness, they’d get together and thank Boston for making them an attractive bedroom community.
