It seems like it's getting harder these days to hide the fact that you're surreptitiously monitoring left-wing political activists. And accidentally tweeting proof of that fact sure doesn't make it any easier. 。
Massachusetts state police are dealing with that reality this week after a Twitter slip-up revealed that they were keeping tabs on a number of political groups in the area. And, surprise, it was anti-Trump and anti police-brutality groups that are under the cops' watchful eyes. 。

recaps what went down. While tweeting a warning to residents potentially affected by the tragic gas explosions rocking the Boston suburbs this past week, the state police included a photo of a map of other areas that might require evacuation. 。
“Reminder: all residents of Lawrence/Andover/N[orth] Andover who have Columbia Gas must evacuate, as should anyone else who smells gas,” read the now-deleted tweet. 。
But it's the photo, helpfully saved before the police realized their mistake, that tells the larger story. 。

Among those include bookmarks to the pages of the Coalition to Organize and Mobilize Boston Against Trump (COMBAT), Mass Action Against Police Brutality, Facebook MA Activism, and a progressive-curated calendar of anti-Trump rallies. 。
The police are literally keeping tabs on peaceful left-wing activist groups. 。

Yeah, oops. 。
But to hear David Procopio, the state police director of media communications, tell it, this is not at all what it looks like. 。
Which is totally believable. After all, who are you going to believe? Paid police spokesperson Procopio, or your lying eyes?
