Vice President Kamala Harris had to cast the deciding vote, but the US Senate today confirmed Suffolk County District Attorney as the US Attorney for Massachusetts.
That, in turn, means Gov. Baker will get to choose somebody to replace her, at least through the end of next year, as Suffolk County District Attorney.
Think Boston Councilor Michael Flaherty, a Democrat who backed Baker and a long ago assistant DA, is looking over business-card templates?
Like the job UHub is doing? Consider a contribution. Thanks!

God I miss the good old days when we could work 12 year olds in mills and only rich people had leisure time. The libertarian dream times!
It's a win win win, all over.

It's a win win win, all over. It's good for Boston, Rollins and Biden.
McConnell and Cruz

They prove that the spirit of Joe McCarthy continues to exist in the Senate. They both are also the puscular eruptions of the movement of the Koch brothers (albeit David is deceased), Grover Norquist, etc. which has always been to make government as ineffective as possible.
Play on the perennial US dislike of governance. Fan it like a flame until it becomes a bonfire. Keep feeding that bonfire until it destroys all of government.
Why? Because of laws such as the Civil Rights Act of 1964, Supreme Court rulings that pull power away from the richest, government that actually works to protect the nation, internally and externally.
