Boston Mayor Michelle Wu has come under fire for her open refusal to arrest anyone involved in the drug trade, a stance that many critics argue will only exacerbate the city’s ongoing opioid crisis. Wu’s controversial position, which prioritizes leniency over law enforcement, has raised concerns regarding public safety and the rule of law. While she claims the policy is part of a broader approach to addressing addiction, opponents contend it sends the wrong message and undermines efforts to combat the escalating drug problem in Boston.
Boston residents have repeatedly complained about the uptick in drug use in the city while Wu and other progressive officials blatantly ignore the issue. However, Wu, Boston Police Commissioner Michael Cox, and Suffolk District Attorney Kevin Hayden have outlined a plan that they call an “evolution” to tackle the persistent problem.
The new public safety plan focuses on providing treatment for drug dealers instead of arresting them as the city struggles with addressing its open-air drug market.
President Donald Trump’s border czar, Tom Homan, weighed in on the so-called “plan,” saying that Wu has “taken the liberal mind to an entirely different realm.”
“She is now openly refusing to arrest anyone who deals narcotics,” Homan wrote on X. “You can now expect dealers to take bolder risks more often, all in an effort to get your kids hooked, and ALL thanks to Mayor Wu! Boston is about to hit an entirely new low. I really can’t stress that enough!” […]

At Last, a Company With Integrity in the Gold IRA Industry
For several years, I’ve been vetting out precious metals companies in search of the best. I believe in gold and silver but it’s hard to find integrity in the Gold IRA industry. The vast majority operate with shady tactics and gigantic spreads that take advantage of Americans who simply want to protect their life’s savings.
I’ve found a handful that I like and I’ve worked with some of them. By no means would I “unrecommend” them because, again, I vetted them out and found them to be above the fold. Unfortunately, it isn’t hard to be better than the rest when the rest are so darn awful.
After years of searching, I finally found a company that truly operates with integrity. Augusta Precious Metals has three important attributes that set them far above the competition:
- Non-Commissioned Sales Team: I cannot stress how important and unique this is. With just about every other company in the Gold IRA industry, the sales teams make commission from every account they open. This means they steer their clients toward the gold and silver products with the highest commission. With Augusta Precious Metals, the team is solely focused on putting the best gold and silver for their clients into their IRA. They get paid to serve the best interests of the Gold IRA client, NOT their own commission pay.
- Incredibly Low Fees: Most Americans would be shocked if they knew the spread other Gold IRA companies charge. Augusta charges just 5% versus up to 45% elsewhere.
- No Pressure, No Gimmicks: There’s an understanding among most in the Gold IRA industry that fear and pressure is the way to go. Augusta Precious Metals takes a sober approach when working with clients because they hold integrity in the highest possible regard. This is why they don’t offer gimmicks like “free” or “bonus” silver. It’s also why they do not apply pressure tactics to get quick sales. Their educational and transparent approach to doing business is exceedingly rare in the Gold IRA industry.
