BOSTON (AP) — A YMCA is apologizing to its members after a staffer posted a notice threatening to report parents who smell like pot.
Greater Springfield YMCA president and chief executive Dexter Johnson said the letter was prematurely sent out by another staffer, without proper evaluation and authorization.
The executive director of youth development, Uriah Rodriguez, wrote a letter that was displayed at several of the group’s Springfield-area facilities last week, stating he had received complaints about parents smelling like marijuana when dropping off or picking up their children.
BOSTON (AP) — Former Red Sox pitcher Curt Schilling has gone after Rep.-elect Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez on Twitter, drawing the ire of U.S. Rep. David Cicilline.
Ocasio-Cortez, of New York, wrote on Twitter her ideas are being scrutinized because of her age, while Paul Ryan was elected at a young age and his policies were “considered genius.” She says it’s a double standard.
Schilling told Ocasio-Cortez on Twitter she’s being scrutinized because she says stupid things.
That provoked Cicilline, of Rhode Island, to tell Schilling he should worry about his debt to Rhode Island before going after Ocasio-Cortez.
In 2010, Rhode Island invested $75 million to lure Schilling’s video game company, 38 Studios, from Massachusetts. The company ran out of money and went bankrupt.
