  • Is Josh Kraft pushing the envelope of campaign finance law to challenge Mayor Wu? - The Boston Globe

    5 days ago | bostonglobe.com | Joan Vennochi

    Jonathan Karush runs two companies — one that does work for Josh Kraft’s Boston mayoral campaign, and one that does work for the super PAC that is aligned with Kraft.

What might be simply an embarrassing story about two young Boston City Hall staffers behaving badly has become a more complicated story about who gets hired and fired in the administration of Mayor Michelle Wu and how Wu manages controversy. On Tuesday, two City Hall workers — Marwa Khudaynazar, 27, and Chulan Huang, 26 — were terminated following an internal review of a domestic incident that ended with their arrests.
