A source within the Boston City Hall has revealed that a Democratic city council member, Tania Fernandes Anderson, is causing tension among her liberal colleagues with her erratic behavior and alarming statements. According to the anonymous source who spoke with Fox News, Fernandes Anderson’s antics are beginning to create an unhealthy environment within the city government.

The source described Fernandes Anderson as a troubled individual who manipulates accusations of racism to coerce others into compliance. The source also highlighted instances of verbal abuse and anti-Semitic comments made by the council member. Many people in the city’s government feel intimidated by her, leading them to choose agreement over dissent to avoid being labeled as racist.

Fernandes Anderson, who was elected in November 2021, identifies herself as the first formally undocumented African-born immigrant and first Muslim elected in the city of Boston. She has made it clear that she intends to bring about a revolution for equity. In December 2021, she stated in an interview that the overthrow of systemic racism is necessary for meaningful change.

Since taking office, Fernandes Anderson has gained a reputation for public outbursts characterized by swearing, yelling, and screaming during city council meetings. This behavior has drawn criticism from the source, who finds it alarming and threatening.

During a meeting in March 2024, Fernandes Anderson made provocative statements, referring to her aggressive behavior as “giving smoke.” The source expressed concern that her comments were veiled threats aimed at her colleagues.

In addition to the confrontational behavior, Fernandes Anderson has lambasted her fellow council members, accusing them of being racially divided and cowardly. She has also accused them of engaging in dirty politics. Her frustration with the council’s disagreement about redistricting manifested in expletive-laden tirades and physical displays of anger.

Privately, Fernandes Anderson has sent text messages to her colleagues, urging them to toughen up while simultaneously criticizing their use of dirty politics. She prides herself on being raw and assertive in her communication style.

Fernandes Anderson’s desire for change extends to dismantling what she calls the “White backdrop” in America. Her goal is to create a more inclusive society.

During discussions involving the October 7 attacks, Fernandes Anderson became emotional as her colleagues refused to support her resolution that characterized Hamas’ actions, including sexual assault, as a “military operation.” She criticized her colleagues for their political biases and called for opposition to the killing of all civilians and children.

According to the source, Fernandes Anderson’s focus on passing resolutions condemning Israel has negatively impacted her ability to fulfill her regular job duties and serve the needs of the local community. Her consistent absence from city council meetings, identified in a recent report, has raised concerns about her dedication to her responsibilities.

Fernandes Anderson faced scrutiny for hiring her sister and son to paid positions on her Boston City Council staff, which violated the conflict of interest law. The Massachusetts Ethics Commission confirmed the violation.

In another controversy, Fernandes Anderson led a budget proposal aimed at cutting nearly $1 million in funding for the police and veterans. She later shifted blame onto other council members during a hearing, distancing herself from the decision. The mayor of Boston ultimately vetoed the budget proposal.

The source expressed deep concern about Fernandes Anderson’s behavior, stating that they believe she is troubled and unsuited for government. They expressed the desire to see troubled individuals avoid further problems and voiced reservations about her presence in the city government.
