Boston Muslim Illegal Alien Councilwoman Sentenced to Prison for Stealing Huge Taxpayer Monies

Meet Tania Fernandes Anderson, the first Muslim illegal alien criminal member of the Boston City Council is going to prison for stealing huge sums of taxpayer funds to enrich herself and her family. She was celebrated as the first African immigrant and Muslim elected to the council. She arrested for corruption in 2024. She went on serving until last month.

She accused the media of biased coverage due to her race. “Stop talking about me.”

As a result of an FBI Boston investigation, Boston City Councilor Tania Fernandes Anderson has been sentenced to one month in federal prison, three years supervised release & was ordered to pay $13,000 in restitution after admitting to public corruption charges. She pocketed a $7,000 kickback from a staff member’s city-funded bonus. (FBI Boston)

BREAKING: Boston’s first Muslim and African migrant City Councilor, Tania Fernandes Anderson, was sentenced to one month in prison for a corrupt kickback scheme, pocketing $7,000 in taxpayer cash from a $13,000 bonus she illegally awarded a family member in a City Hall bathroom.

She violated Massachusetts ethics laws by hiring relatives, paid a $5,000 fine, and used the kickback to cover it.

Anderson also admitted to filing false tax returns from 2021 to 2023, hiding $11,000 in income plus the $7,000 kickback.

After pleading guilty to wire fraud and theft of federal funds, she resigned in July 2025, then bashed the media for bias against Black immigrants while dodging accountability.

Prosecutors pushed for a year in jail, but she got 30 days – IS 30 DAYS IN JAIL ENOUGH?! (Publius)

We’ve been exposing Tania Fernandes-Anderson for years. Once a ratchet, always a ratchet.

Boston Muslim Illegal Alien Councilwoman Replaces July 4th Before Going to Prison

July in Boston will now be Cabo Verde Independence Month.

July 2, 2025 by Daniel Greenfield:

On July 4th, Boston will rid its city council of another foreign enemy occupier. It took a while.

In 2019, future Councilwoman Tania Fernandes Anderson, a former illegal alien, became an American citizen. In 2021, she was elected to Boston’s city council. In 2022, she began complaining that there were too many white officials in Boston. “The Majority of Boston is BROWN & BLACK”, the Muslim immigrant married to a murderer complained.

In 2024, the first ex-illegal alien Muslim elected official in Massachusetts was arrested and indicted in a kickback scheme. That did not stop her from continuing to serve on the city council.

By April 2025, Anderson still hadn’t resigned despite planning to plead guilty to several of the charges that would entail serving a year in prison, leaving open the possibility that the Boston City Council would soon have the first Muslim illegal alien imprisoned city councilwoman.

Boston City Council President Ruthzee Louijeune, the first Haitian councilwoman, initially proposed waiting until November 2025 to see what developed and then promised “to continue working in partnership, as well, with the mayor’s office to make sure that Roxbury residents, and the residents of all of District 7, have their representation during this challenging time.”

Finally in early June, Anderson agreed to resign… and went on serving. On June 25, a month before she faces sentencing, the criminal councilwoman finally attended her last session, sponsored resolutions, and promised to continue “fighting, not from this chamber but from the community” by going back “to the base, to the roots, where real power lives” until the day comes when “we live in a society that doesn’t just say Black Lives Matter, that proves it.”

While Boston’s surviving residents will lose Anderson’s services (and those of the family members she employed), she has left a permanent mark on the revolutionary city.

Based on the final resolution proposed by Anderson, July will not be the month when Boston remembers the American Revolution, it will be a month “to recognize and to celebrate the independence of Cabo Verde and to declare July as Cabo Verdean Heritage Month.”

Forget America. July in Boston will be the month to remember the political independence of the West African island an illegal alien criminal who hates America and stole from it came from.

The resolution was part of a goodbye party thrown for Anderson by her leftist colleagues during her final session before she breaks through the final glass ceiling, leaving the home of the unconvicted criminals of the council for that of the less successful criminals of the penal system.

The former illegal alien urged her fellow council members to “celebrate all we’ve built together” and the radical leftist wing of the council lavishly praised their corrupt colleague as an example..

Councilwoman Liz Breadon (D), the first lesbian immigrant to serve on the city council, worryingly hailed the “example in many ways that Tania Fernandes Anderson has made to us.”

The “example” in question was hiring her son and sister to serve on her staff, then getting hit with a $5,000 ethics fine for hiring them, then trying to pay the ethics fine by hiring another family member, lying about their familial relationship to the ethics commission, then giving her a large bonus (at taxpayer expense) and getting a $7,000 kickback from her in the bathroom.

“You are an ally in the fight for equity, and you are Boston’s Harriet Tubman,” Councilman Brian Worrell (D), the first second generation Jamaican immigrant, claimed. “Thank you for your service.”

History does not dwell on the time that Harriet Tubman got a kickback in the bathroom. That’s usually something Boston city council members do. It’s unknown if like Tania Fernandes Anderson, Harriet racked up 70 audit letters. Or if she ever equaled Anderson’s feat of hiring her son as her treasurer or allegations that her expenses were one giant slush fund.

Councilwoman Julia Meija (D), who tends to wear revolutionary berets and is the first Dominican immigrant councilwoman, hailed Anderson’s “courage”. Meija is presumably referring to the time the Muslim ex-illegal alien called the Hamas atrocities of Oct 7 a “military operation”. Mejia had also worked to block a resolution condemning the mass murder of Jews by Islamic terrorists.

Councilwoman Sharon Durkan (D), the first blonde campaign consultant elected to the council, who had also opposed the resolution condemning the murder of Jews, sympathetically told her corrupt colleague, “this time has not been easy.” The only ones it’s been harder on is Hamas.

True to form, Anderson blamed her downfall on a conspiracy by the “system” to get her for being too outspoken. “The system is set up to accommodate politeness, not truth. It tolerates performance, not integrity, and anyone who dares to step outside of that theater risks being ostracized or worse.” Also anyone who dares to accept toilet kickbacks.

How the ‘system’ compelled Anderson to hire family members is still unknown.

“I’d be so grateful to share this closing chapter with you,” she told her colleagues.

Many Bostonians only wish that she could fully share the chapter with many of their ‘representatives’.

But as Anderson heads off into the sunset for Cabo Verdean Heritage Month, she, like so many of her ‘first’ colleagues, remains a shining example of how diversity has strengthened Boston and turned it from a boring old American city full of Irish immigrants into the third world.

A statue of her can’t be far off in the making.

On the romantic side though, if Anderson does go to prison, she may be reunited with her husband Tanzerius Anderson who is already in prison for armed robbery and murder.

Tania Anderson hadn’t managed to get her husband out. Maybe now she’ll join him.
