In this week’s episode, Jennifer welcomes Will Onuoha, a lifelong Bostonian, political science and international relations graduate, and a candidate for Boston City Council At-Large. Will’s extensive career in city government spans over 20 years, including a decade as Boston’s Housing Commissioner under Mayor Marty Walsh. Raised in Mission Hill and a beneficiary of community support in the aftermath of the Charles Stewart era, Will is a self-described centrist and humanitarian, mentored by the late Mayor Tom Menino and dedicated to practical solutions for Boston’s toughest challenges.

Jennifer and Will dive into Boston’s escalating housing crisis, shortcomings in public education, and the ongoing humanitarian disaster at Mass and Cass. Will shares his frustration with the current City Council’s focus on national controversies instead of local needs, calls out the grandstanding on issues like international conflict resolutions and ICE enforcement, and outlines actionable ideas for affordable workforce housing reform. The discussion includes strong criticism of leadership that ignores the city’s most vulnerable residents, especially seniors, and exposes hidden consequences of illegal immigration, human rights violations, and the exploitation of undocumented workers. Will’s campaign is bolstered by endorsements from notable former city leaders and first responders. He urges Bostonian's and supporters nationwide to help restore professionalism and common sense to City Hall.

“The United States government is having a difficult time…so I don’t know what makes the city council think a resolution from them is going to make an international conflict go away.” ~ Will Onuoha

In this week’s episode, Jennifer welcomes Danielle Laurenti, a Massachusetts corrections officer with over fifteen years of experience, including service as a sergeant in both female and maximum-security male facilities. Danielle began her career as a young single mother, driven by her passion for law enforcement and desire to support her family. Over the years, she has become an advocate for women’s rights within the corrections system, particularly in response to recent Massachusetts laws requiring female officers to conduct strip searches on transgender inmates. Danielle shares her personal story as both a public servant and a sexual assault survivor, bringing a critical perspective to evolving workplace safety issues.

 

Jennifer and Danielle delve into the controversial changes brought about by the 2018 Massachusetts crime bill, which mandates that strip searches in correctional facilities be conducted based on inmates’ gender identity rather than biological sex. Danielle details the psychological and ethical challenges faced by female corrections officers asked to perform invasive searches on biologically male inmates, citing both personal trauma and the broader issue of consent. The discussion uncovers the lack of training, union consultation, or opportunity for officers to opt out, raising concerns about workplace harassment, women’s rights, and public safety. They explore federal and state discrepancies, compare procedures in other settings like TSA, and emphasize the ongoing fight for equal rights and consent within the corrections profession. This episode confronts the intersection of gender identity, legal mandates, and women’s workplace autonomy, while advocating for systemic change and greater awareness.

 

“The law is exposing women to sexual situations with men they don’t know, men they are not consenting to. They’re being forced; they’re being threatened. And you’re creating new victims and you’re revictimizing previous victims.”
~Danielle Laurenti

• The impact of the 2018 Massachusetts crime bill on corrections officers’ roles

In this week’s episode, Jennifer welcomes Lew Evangelidis, the long-serving Sheriff of Worcester County, Massachusetts. Lew previously represented Worcester in the Massachusetts House of Representatives before being elected sheriff in 2010. Over his tenure, he has witnessed dramatic shifts in immigration enforcement, border policy, and the intersection of state and federal law enforcement. With extensive firsthand experience and a commitment to public safety, Lew brings a nuanced understanding of the challenges facing Massachusetts communities, particularly in light of recent controversies around immigration and law enforcement collaboration.

Throughout, Lew emphasizes his philosophy of being tough on crime while remaining compassionate and accessible to the community.

“If a man, 30 years old with a beard looked 30, he said he was 16, there was nothing you could do. He was a minor. He was allowed into the country.” ~Sheriff Lew Evangelidis

The conversation also confronts the polarization of Congress, the rise of political extremism on the left, and the dire need for fiscal reform to secure America’s financial future. This episode is packed with controversial viewpoints, clear calls to action, and Scott’s insight on the challenges and responsibilities of seeking public office in turbulent times

In this week’s episode, I dive deep into the state of protests in America and the line between peaceful demonstration and lawlessness. Drawing on my family’s immigrant roots and my experience as an attorney and political strategist, I address the complex questions surrounding our First Amendment rights, the actions of elected leaders, and the consequences of current immigration policies. With a focus on developments in California and Massachusetts, I share personal perspectives on civic engagement, public safety, and the pressing need for reform.

I confront the controversies around looting, violence in the streets, and the responsibilities of those in public service. I address the strain on local and state resources caused by the ongoing immigration crisis, highlight the struggles faced by both immigrants and native citizens, and call out leaders, regardless of party, for fanning the flames rather than solving problems. Throughout the episode, I challenge the status quo, demand a return to decency in governance, and argue for a fair but firm approach to both protest and immigration that can lead to a better future for everyone.

“A peaceful fucking protest has nothing to do with burning up cars, looting stores, or throwing stones at police officers.” ~Jennifer Nassour

This week on Political Contessa:

• Differences between peaceful protest and violence in public demonstrations
• The impact of sanctuary policies on law enforcement and public safety
• My criticism of politicians who stoke confrontational activism
• Exploring the legal immigration process versus entering illegally
• My family’s personal stories of immigration and resilience
• The strain on public resources from the immigrant crisis in Massachusetts
• Concerns about the quality of leadership at the local and federal levels

In this week's episode, I offer my unfiltered perspective on one of the nation’s most controversial stories. As an attorney, political strategist, and commentator, I’ve devoted my career to grassroots activism, public policy, and challenging conventional wisdom across the political spectrum. My work places me at the center of debates on law, order, and immigration, and today, I’m sharing my direct take on the events rocking California and the country at large.

 

This episode digs into the recent clashes in California, where ICE agents and detention centers became the focal point for riots, forcing President Trump to deploy 700 Marines to Los Angeles alongside the National Guard. I tackle what this means in a sanctuary city, address the legal and moral intricacies of illegal immigration, and critique how local officials are dealing with the fallout. From the devastating impact on small businesses to the divided loyalties of politicians, I unpack why Trump’s hardline policies are no surprise to those who supported him and highlight the consequences of ignoring campaign promises. My commentary challenges the mainstream narrative and critiques elitist leadership, while examining the difficult choices our leaders face when addressing public safety, immigration, and community trust.

 

“If you are here illegally and doing something illegal, like being in the country illegally, it's time to tell people who came in in the last four years, three years, two years, year, you're going to get kicked out.”

 

Today on the Political Contessa:

• I discuss the deployment of 700 Marines to Los Angeles to address riots.
• I highlight how President Trump’s immigration enforcement policies remain at the center of national debate.
• Sanctuary city policies restrict what law enforcement can do during civil unrest.
• Illegal activities by recent immigrants are presented as justification for stricter immigration actions.
• Small businesses suffer most from property damage during riots.
• Local officials’ defiance of federal immigration law is escalating tensions with the President.
• Leaders earn voter support by keeping campaign promises on immigration.
• Elected officials need to prioritize their constituents’ interests over their own.
