We’re independent and can’t be cancelled. The establishment media is increasingly dedicated to divisive cancel culture, corporate wokeism, and political correctness, all while covering up corruption from the corridors of power. The need for fact-based journalism and thoughtful analysis has never been greater. When you support The Post Millennial, you support freedom of the press at a time when it’s under direct attack. Join the ranks of independent, free thinkers by supporting us today for as little as $1.

Officers had been responding to a 911 call about four people with guns, then brought in the clinician to de-escalate the scene, because apparently even a sword-wielding crisis can still start with a very modern apartment-building confusion. The clinician, the officers, and the suspect were all taken to the hospital, and Boston police and Suffolk County officials called it a chaotic incident involving a man in apparent mental distress.
