Short films on Massachusetts politics. Some are parody. Some are straight explainers. Each one says which it is.

The parodies go after the Commonwealth’s Democratic establishment — Governor Healey, Mayor Wu and the legislators around them — on corruption, hypocrisy, donor money expensed as a lifestyle, sanctuary policy and the cost of living here. They are built from real news footage and real figures cut against AI-generated montage, dark humour and staged confessionals. The explainers carry no joke: the statute behind every line of a utility bill, the labour-force and migration numbers behind the exodus, the HHS money trail, the published reports behind the sanctuary argument, the H-1B filings. Where the blame is bipartisan they say so — the H-1B film names the House and Senate of both parties before it gets anywhere near Beacon Hill.

Every film is tagged Parody or Explainer, so nothing on this page can be mistaken for the record. The explainers run on the same sourced figures as the dashboards; the parodies are arguments, made in the open.
