Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Tuesday, Oct 13: Shawn Oliver
Q: Did you make a statement? Why did you make a statement?
Oliver says he did not know what the people detained in New Bedford were being held or charged for, and argues that coordination among federal, state, and local governments could make enforcement clearer and smoother.
Tuesday, Oct 13: Shawn Oliver
Q: Were you expecting abortion at all?
Oliver says he did not expect abortion to receive that much attention, arguing it is protected in Massachusetts and that the debate should have focused on affordability and other state issues.
Friday, Oct 16: Tim Dunn
Q: What was your assessment of the debate last night? What did you think?
Dunn says he was surprised that the panelists pressed Healey on accountability issues. He says Mike Minogue was well prepared, while Healey became defensive over questions about Lamar Cook and state police issues, and he judged the debate closer than the previous one.
Friday, Oct 16: Tim Dunn
Q: What have you found out from the Department of Justice?
Dunn says information from ICE indicates that some of the people arrested had criminal histories involving serious charges and offenses, including assault, child sexual abuse material, extortion, strangulation, DUI and larceny. He says he is still checking where the offenses occurred.
Tuesday, Oct 13: MA Ballot Questions
Q: Have you heard of banks asking customers about their political affiliation when they open an account?
Richard says he has not encountered the question and points to Consumer Reports, which says the federal government does not require banks to collect political affiliation. He doubts the caller was required to answer and advises against doing business with a bank that asks for such information.
