"These were acts of domestic terrorism and should be treated as such," Massachusetts Republican Party Jim Lyons said. "Maura Healey's words have consequences, and just like when she egged on rioters during the summer of 2020, the far left is taking its cues from her and resorting to violence and destruction."
Lyons comment references remarks Healey made the morning after rioters in downtown Boston looted stores, burned police cars, and fired shots at officers.
"The fact of the matter is that Maura Healey went out of her way to put a bullseye on these centers and leftist activists predictably took the bait and caused more violence and mayhem," Lyons said. "AG Healey continually uses her status of being the state's chief law enforcement officer as a political weapon to wield against things that stand in the way of the Democrat Party, whether it's their obsession with abortions-on-demand or with former President Donald Trump, who she sued almost 50 times.
"Voters must act accordingly this fall to guarantee that this individual will never assume the powers associated with being governor of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts."
