But there she was, being name-dropped by a local hack desperate to get a paying gig with the Democrat mega-pervert.<\/p>\n<p>Granted, it\u2019s a second-hand connection, guilt by association. But that\u2019s the standard Maura Healey herself set last November, when asked about Harvard\u2019s connection to Epstein, through ex-university president Larry Summers.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis whole Epstein thing has really bothered me,\u201d she said. \u201cThese women deserve justice. Anybody who is implicated by any of this should be held accountable.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>But that was then and this is now.<\/p>\n<p>Her new position is that even though the hack who made this claim was paid thousands from her 2014 campaign, so he obviously has some connection to her, she knows nothing, and therefore she should not be held accountable even though by her own definition she is implicated.<\/p>\n<p>The week has not gotten off to a good start for Maura. First she had to issue that statement denying any ties to Epstein. As the old political saying goes, if you\u2019re denying, you\u2019re losing.<\/p>\n<p>But even worse than denying is lying, and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bostonherald.com\/2026\/02\/03\/white-house-blasts-healey-for-withholding-snap-recipient-info-as-feds-bust-another-fraud-scheme\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">yesterday Maura Healey seemed to be again shading the truth<\/a>, at the very least. Once again, the governor was brought down by her slobbering coddling of illegal aliens, especially of the criminal variety.<\/p>\n<p>The US attorney, Leah Foley, announced another mega-bust of welfare fraudsters, mostly from the Dominican Republic. (Stop me if you\u2019ve heard this one before.)<\/p>\n<p>After last month\u2019s $7-million bust of a Haitian food-stamp fraud ring, Maura retorted that the referral on the Haitians came from the state Department of Transitional Assistance (DTA). Not very believable, but Leah couldn\u2019t totally knock it down.<\/p>\n<p>But yesterday, the feds were totally ready. The initial tip on the sinister foreign fiends came from the state of Rhode Island, and they tipped off Massachusetts that the Third World grifters were ripping off both states.<\/p>\n<p>If not for the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bostonherald.com\/author\/tim-dunn\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Herald reporter Tim Dunn<\/a>, Maura would not have been asked about this latest fraud going on under her very nose, certainly not by the amen chorus in Boston regime-controlled media. When it comes to Maura, seldom \u2013 make that never \u2013 is heard a discouraging word in Boston agitprop.<\/p>\n<p>But Dunn asked her for a comment on this latest Massachusetts mega-fraud, to which Hold-It Healey smugly replied:<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIf it\u2019s like the last one, that\u2019s a case that was referred to the US attorney\u2019s office for prosecution.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Except it wasn\u2019t. This is what Leah Foley said in her prepared statement about the investigation by the US Agriculture Department\u2019s inspector general:<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe USDA OIG is not aware of the Mass DTA making any referral report to the USDA concerning this theft.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The US attorney checked. You can bet on that. Back at the State House, Dunn tried to squeeze in a follow-up:<\/p>\n<p>\u201cShould you turn over the information to the feds?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYou\u2019re welcome,\u201d she said. \u201cThank you.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>So now, for Maura, it\u2019s time for another truth cleanup on Aisle 5.<\/p>\n<p>Most likely, her harried gals will point out that she prefaced her, uh, incorrect statement with \u201cIf it\u2019s like the last one.\u201d Obviously, they will sniff, it wasn\u2019t. She didn\u2019t categorically say it was. So there!<\/p>\n<p>But Maura Healey is the Queen of Alibis. Here are a few other potential excuses she can use today if Tim Dunn catches up with her (because you know none of the other crack State House scribes dare approach Her Highness except on bended knee).<\/p>\n<p>Governor, why didn\u2019t you tell the truth yesterday about the latest illegal welfare fraud?<\/p>\n<p>How will she answer?<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI can\u2019t speak to that because of the ongoing investigation.\u201d (Excuse she uses for stonewalling questions about the alleged State Police investigation of her gang-banging, alleged cocaine-dealing western Mass aide LaMar Cook.)<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI never said that.\u201d (Excuse employed when first asked about her bragging that she shut down two natural-gas pipelines, a boast that was recorded on video.)<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI was trying to save money.\u201d (Her second excuse for killing the two gas pipelines, after the first one was exposed as a total lie.)<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThese things happen.\u201d (Excuse used when one of her pampered illegal aliens raped a young disabled girl in one of her foreign freeloader flophouses in Rockland.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI told my staff to make that call and they didn\u2019t do it.\u201d (How she explained why the state was flooded with thousands of illegal-alien criminals without a single background check about their criminal rap sheets.)<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThey were obviously well-qualified for whatever we gave them.\u201d (How she explained appointing her elderly Sapphic sweetheart to a $227,000-a-year SJC judgeship after their acrimonious split before the 2022 campaign for governor.)<\/p>\n<p>\u201cMassachusetts is the Saudi Arabia of fraud.\u201d (A variation on her statement that Massachusetts is the \u201cSaudi Arabia of wind,\u201d just before wind provided less energy to the state in the recent cold spell than\u2026 wood and garbage fires.)<\/p>\n<p>But then, of course, there\u2019s the ultimate fallback excuse, for anything and everything, used not only by Maura Healey but by every other Democrat hack everywhere.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cDonald Trump did it!\u201d<\/p>\n<p>So one final question this morning for Maura. Gov. Healey, how did your name end up in the Jeffrey Epstein files?<\/p>\n<p>\u201cDonald Trump did it!\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Can we quote you on that, Governor?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Who could have ever dreamed that Maura Healey\u2019s name would turn up in the Jeffrey Epstein files before,&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":122826,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[37],"tags":[53714,85,11539,53715,86,9,24,12,63,299,11542,87,122,124,123,10604],"class_list":["post-122825","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-queens","tag-howie-carr","tag-latest-headlines","tag-massachusetts","tag-maura-healey","tag-national-politics","tag-new-york","tag-new-york-city","tag-news","tag-nyc","tag-opinion","tag-opinion-columnists","tag-politics","tag-queens","tag-queens-headlines","tag-queens-news","tag-snap"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/122825","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=122825"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/122825\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/122826"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=122825"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=122825"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=122825"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
