VOL. 122 - NO. 28 BOSTON, MASSACHUSETTS, JULY 13, 2018 $.35 A COPY Madonna delle Grazie 2018 Procession CITY COUNCIL PROPOSES in Boston’s North End NON-CITIZEN VOTING by NorthEndWaterfront.com by Sal Giarratani The Boston City Council is looking at ways for grant- ing non-citizens the right to vote in city elections. Doesn’t anyone understand the concept of government anymore? Residents make up a country but only citizens make up the government. After all, the citizens are the government in the United States of America. Government does not fl ow down to the people but rather up from the citizenry. Too bad many elected offi cials today are so ignorant of U.S. history and our government. I don’t care whether non- citizens are here legally or illegally, only citizens are the voice of government, thus ONLY CITIZENS HAVE THE RIGHT TO VOTE. Eight city councilors have endorsed the concept of non-citizens voting in municipal elections. Where is the push back on the Council fl oor against this ludicrous idea? Already we have elected offi cials calling for open borders and now we are hearing about giving non-citizens the right to vote? Our founding fathers must be turning over in their graves looking at how badly things are going in America today.

Hillary Looking at 2020 Run It looks like Hillary Clinton has yet to give up hope of getting elected president. She has a super-pack Onward Together out there collecting lots of cash. Right now, it looks like a whole football team’s worth of candidates are getting ready to run. Most of them are from the far, far, far left of the party and will beat up each other in the early 2020 primaries and Hillary will just run down the middle and save the Democratic leadership under fi re from the progres- sive socialist nut-jobs out there. She still thinks the Russians with Trump’s help stole the election away from her and America. Even here in Massachusetts, if Elizabeth Warren announced her run for president, if given a choice, most Democrats would go with Hillary over Warren. Personally, I think Republicans would love to see Trump-Hillary II, because Trump will win again. Old dreams die hard! Hillary wants one more try to vin- dicate her history. More on Buck Sexton The Buck Sexton Show, weeknights on Boston 1200 AM Talk from 6:00 – 9:00 pm is one of the very best conservative talk radio shows on the air right now. He’s informative, interesting and his analysis of the issues of the day are 100 percent. This guy is only 36 years old and the future of conserva- tive radio. When it comes to understanding the U.S. Constitution and the Bill of Rights, there is none better. His has the most informed audience in the business. Better than Mark Levin even. Not as angry or bitter, instead more optimistic. His mentor is Rush Limbaugh and he is the Rush of the next generation. When it comes to Buck, the Shields are always high. (Continued on Page 11)
