What a joke of a local government. Just pander to these little whining children. Screaming over an imaginary monster under their bed.

[TheWorldisRaw]

The trans people were so funny screaming and threatening the council over nothing! 😂😂😂

[ValiantTrainer]

They should show more of the speakers. An absolute circus.

[davidk.]

This entire hearing is available online, just can't seem to find it or the city councils web page.

[CountyLaw]

Trump should pull any federal funding to Worcester. Vote these democrats out of office.

[professord]

I encourage everyone to find the videos of the lunatic activists who spoke at that deranged meeting. Worcester sounds like a nightmare to live in, and the city council just made it worse.

[kverreable]

Where can I find this entire hearing? I need a laugh

[pauld]

Sure and Paula Revere road through Massachusetts on a rainbow themed unicorn. What the hell happened to that State.

[rehconcepts]

I think its time for DOGE to take a look into any federal funding. Worcester is governed by a Council-Manager form of government. The City of Worcester received about $146 million from the American Rescue Plan Act of 2021 - The poverty rate in Worcester, Massachusetts is 19.8% - Worcester Public School is, has always been, and will forever be the largest single source of spending in the city budget. In fiscal 2025, the city will contribute $533 million to run the schools, or about 60 percent of the total budget. WPS is facing an estimated $23 million shortfall in its fiscal 2025 budget.

The craziest part about this is that this is real. These aren’t actors or comedians.

[brendaflo]

[BRZbazzanx]

Get Out goodbye.... Go Home party ☑ OR 🤡 gangs go Jail.. *

[Raptor]

Why don't you show the clown girl? 🤣

[buckyoung]

If enacted, the birth rate and housing prices will immediately drop to zero.

[dankelley]

Does this mean we’ll be allowing underage sex transitioning in the city ? Is that the argument here for constitutional infringement? I’m so confused.

[NonyaBidness-we]

Listen to her lovey dovey tone of voice "safe haven for those who identify as." No, encouragement for people who have all the same constitutional rights as everyone else to come to your town, get taxpayer handouts and act like conservatives give two rips what they do in their private lives as long as WE and our kids are not forced to ze zey zem it up and participate or forced to celebrate it. We don't demand that you celebrate our values and it works out just fine. Go do whatever the law permits - NO ONE CARES just leave little kids and the rest of us alone.

[rydiddy]

Why did you edit out all of the hilarious cringe moments? Why didn’t you show when they made hateful antisemitic statements to the Jewish council member?

[lowbudgetpokemon]

Lol, didn't show many of the juicy clips.

[cathynycat]

House values will go down in Worcester. It was a freak show at the meeting

[Matthew-ywoi]

Jokes on trans. Easier to round them up when they're altogether...
