Connecticut- The Land Of Unsteady Anarchy

It is apparent to the most casual of observers that a number of events are taking place that were unthinkable to most in Connecticut just several years ago. Donald Trump is President, sending at least a third of the state into an emotional fit. Governor Ned Lamont, (the “Savior of Covid-19”) has been subpoenaed to testify in the Federal corruption trial of his former director of his construction office with relation to a clear and documented question about his surreptitious financial involvement with “Covid Test” company Sema4. The once-untouchable Connecticut Department of Economic and Community Development is embroiled in a larceny scandal now under the microscope of a Federal Grand Jury and said Department is now being justifiably gored daily by citizen journalists like my friend and colleague Tony De Angelo. Angry parents thoroughly disrupted a “vaccine access panel” of legislators and the politically connected in September. Voting is proven to be suspect, but now, voters are aware of this fact as they no longer read or watch state-run news telling them otherwise. Citizens are rising up in many places to take on and challenge their local governing bodies. It is truly a wonderful time to be a witness to a great number of just desserts being consumed as humble pie by many in the politically connected stratosphere.

But one wonders if a large part of the upheaval described above is a by-product of an impending wave of anarchy. "Book definition" describes anarchy as a state of disorder due to the absence or nonrecognition of authority or other controlling systems. Does this sound familiar in 2025? If one exits the wasteland of local state-run news in Connecticut, it is most clear that a general sense of anarchy is occurring in our states, country, and the world.  The examples of this general anarchy are far-reaching and have done a great deal to erode our country. We have lost trust in local and state government along with seeing the daily hatred of all things President Trump. We have lost trust in our judicial system as non-elected activist judges create their own interpretations of law, and taxpayers will be damned if you do not agree with them. We have lost trust in our elected officials especially in Democrat run states like Connecticut where transparency in nonexistent. We have lost trust in our public schools and universities as they pound in the minds of the students the supposed greatness of socialism and totalitarian views in the minds of the students. We have lost trust in our safety as criminals are now the victims while victims are treated as criminals. We have lost trust in our society and societal norms. And in Connecticut, we have lost trust in anyone somehow connected with the state and local government.

Connecticut is unique in the political anarchy it provides with its Taxpayers. Years of inept one-party rule by the Democrat Party have taken a great toll on the state's economic vibrancy and health along with a general stagnation and dilution of the privately employed working middle class. The working middle class is burdened with excessively high local and state rates that do little to better their lives. The working middle class is burdened also with an out of touch with reality public school system and its hatred of opposing views. Citizen videos of board proceedings in places like Norwich, Groton and Newtown, Connecticut are watched in shocking reality-show fashion by startled thousands online. And to the viewer it is quite clear that none of these municipalities give a tinker’s damn about the views of their taxpaying citizens. The disregard for these citizens is beyond sickening.

 

 As a glaring example, a combination of the executive branch of state government, both political parties, and all state-run news has intentionally and continually failed to deal with a grave and despicable situation in Newtown, Connecticut which is now known world-wide due to the efforts of new media. If you are unaware, an activist, Newtown Public School therapist, Danielle Slaughter Lozer, is now famous across the world. As reported in the Connecticut Centinal, “Law Enforcement Today” and by my colleague Tony De Angelo, Newtown Taxpayers and parents must deal with the garbage described below in their school system while the Board of Education fights back against commentary concerning the same. 

Here are some excerpts from the Centinal article:

"A behavioral therapist for the Newtown Public School district is under fire after her inflammatory social media posts in the wake of Charlie Kirk's assassination caught the attention of parents in the community. The therapist, Danielle Slaughter Lozer has been busy locking down her social media profiles since the complaints against her emerged, but not before parents were able to screenshot the kinds of things Lozer had been posting.

Lozer's post that sparked the complaint described Charlie Kirk as a "white, gum-heavy, devil" who "constantly trashed Black people like we were garbage" and blamed him for "poisoning" other people's children with a platform "built on hate." "Death doesn't change your legacy, it reveals it," wrote Lozer. "And now, that voice of hate is gone and I'll be damned if you'll catch me feeling sorry for him or any of you who loved him so dearly! I said WTF I said!" (https://connecticutcentinal.com/newtown-school-behavioral-therapist-under-fire-hateful-racist-posts-parents-calling-for-dismissal/)

Why in Heaven’s name would you want your behaviorally challenged child to be seen by this lunatic? And why is the Newtown Board of Education not overtly and preemptively resolving this situation? And why is no one in the state Republican Party (including presumptive gubernatorial candidates) calling this situation out for the abomination that it is? One can also see that Danielle Slaughter Lozer is part of much broader issue in public education today with her hatred of white people and all things President Trump. How does she separate her personal and work lives? Does a harmless child coming into school with a MAGA hat face trouble from her? This Newtown Public School therapist needs to be fired. What if she were a Caucasian lady wearing a "KKK" cap and posting about Black hatred online? Parents of the children she has seen need answers, now. It is clear in the Land of Unsteady Anarchy that Freedom of speech is for only the fringe side and not for anyone that is normal.

But the poison of Connecticut "business as usual" is still pervasive. On a state level, taxpayers still do not get any answers from state officials on the corruption seen at the Connecticut Department of Economic and Community Development  which continues to operate even after a Federal Grand Jury investigation for malfeasance and ostensible theft continues. Money continues to flow to such dubious efforts as “QuantumCT” and “The Pizza Trail” with no examination of their economic viability. The Connecticut Department Economic Development faces no pushback by anyone in politics and has no boundaries. No bid contracts, no bid consulting contracts, unlimited cash with no questions asked for non-profits who in many cases need a profit to support their overpaid management teams, all issues that go unanswered and forgotten about. The Department of Economic and Community Development is a great example of political anarchy in the state.

Tied in with the Department of Economic and Community Development, Governor Ned Lamont, depending on his mood and which fringe Democrat political hack is pulling his frayed chain at the moment, will continue to speak out of both sides of his mouth. His anarchy is very hypocritical as his rich man poor man bravado hides his family's hedge fund profits from Infosys Limited, Digital Currency Group and its affiliates, "ADVANCECT", Boston Consulting Group, UNITE US (CT), Mt. Sinai Genomics, "Thermo Fisher Scientific", "Sema 4", " Core Informatics", "Ocrulus", "Urjanet", "1life Healthcare", "Galileo Health", "Castlight Health", "Paladina Health", and "VillageMD"“The Horsebarn Hill Investment Fund”, McKinsey, “CT Next”, and Tidal River Fund, to name a few.  The real Ned Lamont expresses his grave concern that Zohran Mamdani will become the Mayor of New York City and thereby will economically destroy Connecticut. (https://nypost.com/2025/10/07/business/connecticut-governor-warns-wall-street-at-risk-if-mamdani-wins-nyc-mayors-race/). The real Ned Lamont would like to coordinate with the Trump Energy Department for real and practical and affordable energy solutions for the state, much to the displeasure of the dingbats in his own party for even he sees the farce that is Connecticut energy policy. However, the real Ned Lamont does not care about any of it, them, or you or anyone else for that matter. For the real Ned Lamont is governor only for his family interests and will continue in that role doing whatever it takes, true or false, for as long as he is allowed to do so. 

If you do not believe me, just check the record.

 This is the “State” of Connecticut. The Land of Unsteady Anarchy, Unraveling fraud. Larceny. Failure to protect children. Governments unconstitutionally denying citizen rights. A governor who is accountable only to himself and his own. The dump that Connecticut has turned into needs to once and for all be cleaned up from top to bottom. But yet there is more than one happy hope that sunlight will finally break through the Charter Oak trees and establish itself again as the best disinfectant.

MSGA- Make Shutdowns Great Again

 The average American cares little for supporting the bloated and gargantuan monkey that has become our government. By way of the record, there have been twenty-one federal government shutdowns since 1974.These are periods when non-essential federal operations halted due to lapsed appropriations, leading to furloughs of federal employees. But in point of fact, the average American wants to live safely, drive over roads that do not crater, save, and buy things for his family and to see taxes and utilities low.

But government, in its present form, could care less.

Actually, the Federal government's budget process is highly complex and a difficult to understand process in many ways. The Congressional Budget Act of 1974, signed into law by President Richard M. Nixon, created an October 1 to September 30 federal fiscal year. Theoretically, this structure is to improve fiscal management and transparency for government operations. It supposedly is to allow more time for Congress and the President to plan and be more efficient in its spending. "One of the primary benefits of this fiscal period is its alignment with the federal budgeting process, which involves collecting taxes, accepting funding requests, creating budget proposals, and routing these proposals to Congress. This structured timeline ensures that the government can manage its financial activities without the rush and confusion that might accompany a calendar year-end. The flexibility of fiscal years, varying significantly between organizations and countries, allows entities to tailor their financial reporting and budgeting to their specific needs. For the federal government, this means a smoother, more predictable financial planning process that ultimately benefits taxpayers." (https://selectgcr.com/government-contracts/understanding-the-gov-fiscal-year-key-differences-benefits-over-the-calendar-year/). In review of the litany of overspending, waste, fraud, and abuse over decades, one can only question how fiscal management has improved and how much transparency has been seen over the past 52 years of this bill, especially in light of what DOGE found in wasteful spending over the past year.

However, it is being increasingly apparent to those same average working Americans that the bloat, arrogance, and ineptitude of government is something they can certainly live without and stop paying for. This clarity is now evident to these folks to where they now see a minority out of touch with reality Democrat Party shutting the government down by their refusal to vote for a continuing resolution to keep the government open until November. Apparently, the dysfunctional and incompetent Democrat Party is now led by New York Senator Chuck Schumer, who emphasizes all of the characteristics of a tin-horn politician by criticizing President Trump and Republicans in the hope of effecting a more palatable budget on one hand, while simultaneously fighting off the far-left lunatics in his own party who do not want for him to work out any agreement whatsoever with Republicans or with any semblances of sanity and fiscal responsibility on the other. This double-mindedness and lack of resolve on his part leads us to the fact that this truly is a “Schumer Shutdown.” But the whole idea of Democrats reasoning at all is false. The Democrat Party will not accept any cuts to their failed Obama Care-Biden program that temporarily extended premium subsidy eligibilities to those with income above 400% of the federal poverty level thereby taking away health care subsidies originally intended for those with lesser means.  It has been reported by Ge Bai, Professor of Accounting and Health Policy at Johns Hopkins University that these subsidies are indeed, bulbous and out of control: "A family of four in Arizona making $600,000, a married couple in West Virginia making $580,000, and a single individual in Vermont making $180,000.." (https://www.wsj.com/opinion/democrats-demand-return-of-bidenomics-ba452006). How was this situation ever allowed to come into being?

Perhaps one of the reasons such a situation came into existence was due to the yammering of fiscally-brainless politicians such as Connecticut's Socialist/Radical/Democrat Senator Chris Murphy, who actually uttered this gem: "I join with my colleagues in wanting this new budget to, at the very least, postpone the health care insurance increases that are coming for millions of Americans, that are going to ruin people’s lives in this country. 75 percent increases for people that are going to make this awful decision about whether they should continue to pay their premiums, whether they should put food on the table for their kids, or whether they should risk going without insurance. I think that’s a pretty reasonable ask - just don’t increase costs on families when it comes to health care, at a time when the cost of everything else is going up because of President Trump’s insane economic policies. But let me ask you this as well:  Why would we not also simply say that any budget we pass should stop the worst of the lawlessness? Stop the deployment to our cities. Stop the witch hunt of Comey and Soros and Senator Schiff. Stop using the FCC to censor speech. Stop unconstitutionally ignoring the budget, and spending only money that the President wants to spend.

To me this is simple. We should not willingly pay the bills for the most serious assault on political freedom since the Civil War - an assault that may collapse American democracy as we know it."  (https://www.murphy.senate.gov/newsroom/press-releases/murphy-the-senate-should-not-fund-democracys-destruction) 

The mad ramblings of Chris Murphy proceed quickly from insurance costs to Witch hunts to his real reason for living being his serial hatred of all things Donald Trump. Chris Murphy will never address the Biden Witch hunts against President Trump and all things Republican. He will continue to rant and rave about these same medical care programs such as Obama Care that his party shoved down the throats of Americans and their lack of affordability. Since Chris Murphy obviously does not pay for health insurance Chris Murphy does not understand how horrific our health insurance costs have become. Hasn't the Democrat Party "ruined people’s lives" enough times since the Obama Administration with its "affordable" health care programs? But what does Chris Murphy care? Chris Murphy pays for absolutely nothing himself and has never held gainful employment outside of politics.

However, as the shutdown or possibilities of the same proceed, hope springs eternal that the farcical bloat of a large part of government could mercifully be starved out due to a lack of taxpayer support. Could such a blessing come to Connecticut? In fact, many decent taxpaying citizens of Connecticut would love nothing more than to see the Democrat-run Connecticut government shut down and be starved out. Just think of the wonders of that scenario: No more billions of dollars wasted on an inept and largely inoperative administrative state. The starvation of DEEP. The CT-DOT being forced to act in an efficient manner having no excess funds to waste on administrators and superfluous bureaucrats and cronies and make-work obstructive and redundant construction projects. The merciful abolishment of the failed/should be abolished CT-DECD, thus saving the multi-millions of dollars wasted or pilfered by legislators throwing money at useless, inefficient, and redundant nonprofits. and laughable “economic development” initiatives such as the “Connecticut Pizza Trail.” The Legislature, without free-liquor and consequent DWIs by legislators finally giving way to people actually wanting to be sober and represent their constituents. A world without nebulous and shadowy organizations such as ADVANCECT, 4-CT, “QUANTUMCT” and a whole litany of (fill-in-the-blank) “CTs” redundantly doing some form of government but being entirely non-transparent and somehow feeding cronies on the Lamont food chain or other politically-connected individuals. (My friend and colleague Tony De Angelo covered this subject quite well on the October 2, 2025 edition of THIRTY WITH TONY “The Price of Idiocy” (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SrG0jrDwGFM )

As Louis Armstrong said years ago in song, what a wonderful world that would be.

But in returning to the Federal shutdown, the solution is the same solution that has been offered repeatedly. Congress needs to adopt an automatic continuing resolution to keep agencies open at prior funding levels until a new budget is passed each year. This resolution would take the political grandstanding and political blame game out of the equation. It allows for a functional discussion on what needs and does not to be paid for by United States Taxpayers. It provides for a coherent flow of the operations of government. But can this ever happen again in our current political environment with the hatred by the Democrat Party and of all things President Trump growing hourly over anything he does or says. In fact, can we actually govern anymore? Or is the real threat to Democracy the likes of Chris Murphy and his ego driven, self-centered, leftist Democrat Party and their desire to destroy any opposing voices in our society taking our society along with it?

Let the government shutdown continue and let us truly reform how our federal government spends Taxpayers monies. Let us force-feed fiscal responsibility to government as government is continually unwilling to do that in and of itself. Let's actually have a real federal budget for the entire fiscal year once and for all.  Let us actually have transparency in our government. And let us keep the happy vision in Connecticut of burning down the waste, fraud, abuse, and self-dealing so that this state can once again be safe, affordable, and livable.

Isn't that all a small price to save Democracy?

The Poisoned Branches Of The Charter Oak

 

Many good ideas come from dreams and concepts. However, many bad ideas often take shape in a similar manner. Many years ago, a group of idealists met in San Francisco believing that the great men and women of the world could meet in a large, beautiful building to settle their differences as easily as golf score disputes and thereby avoid future wars and armed conflicts. Once the concept was completed, a misguided egotistical U.S. Senator named Prescott Bush tried to convince his Connecticut neighbors that the northern regions of Fairfield County coastal towns would be a great place for this hazy dream, then called “Unaville.” Predictably, Prescott’s neighbors impolitely told him where he could place his “Unaville” and after much travail and discussion, the “United Nations” set up shop in its very familiar glass box building off the East River in New York City. 

While an architectural marvel to this day, this building has spectated over no less than 200 wars and conflicts and has received no less than $400,000,000,000. 

But it is still a great looking building.

According to its website, The United Nations is described as follows: (https://www.un.org/en/our-work): "The work of the United Nations covers five main areas: Maintain International Peace and Security, Protect Human Rights, Deliver Humanitarian Aid, Support Sustainable Development and Climate Action, and Uphold International Law."  The United Nations is a complex and, in some cases, secretive organization which obtains a great deal of funding from United States Taxpayers. For one year alone (2023), U.S. taxpayers spent $13 billion dollars to perpetuate this attractive nuisance and questionable political failure. And in recent days it is increasingly clear that the United Nations has lost its way and has become a massive failure with respect to compliance with its stated purpose. One sees little from it about maintaining peace and security in our world given the number of ongoing conflicts. One sees little protecting human rights with the amount of human trafficking that takes place in our world. There is even less seen in delivering humanitarian aid in the world with the amount of people who are apparently starving especially in communist regimes. But since the United Nations is now coolly and unabashedly globalist, we see sustainable development and climate action taking center stage at the United Nations as political tools of the ruling elite. Further, I see that International Law is used an excuse to punish those who do not believe in freedom. In 2025 the United Nations has morphed an organization that is self-interested, out of control and one so far away from the utopian but well-intentioned dreams of founders like Dag Hammarskjöld and Cordell Hull who are now turning over in their graves with respect to the present-day monstrosity.

But still, the United Nations continues in a business of pretending to solve conflicts. On Tuesday, September 23, 2025, President Donald J. Trump addressed the United Nations General Assembly. Ostensibly, a part of this agenda appeared to many to try to assault the First Family on the escalator on the way to the speech. (https://www.cnn.com/2025/09/24/politics/trump-demands-investigation-into-alleged-sabotage-united-nations). Undaunted, the President continued to his speech. Despite dealing with an inexplicably malfunctioning teleprompter, Mr. Trump soldiered on. His speech, condemned by many on the left as usual, spoke in an unfiltered manner as to what many Americans feel about the United Nations. The President stated, "What is the purpose of the United Nations? The UN has such tremendous potential… All they seem to do is write a really strongly worded letter, and then never follow that letter up. It’s empty words — and empty words don’t solve war.”  (https://www.whitehouse.gov/articles/2025/09/at-un-president-trump-champions-sovereignty-rejects-globalism/) How many wars has the United Nations resolved in the past? None come to mind. There is no follow up by the United Nations when a war occurs. What has it done with the Russian - Ukraine conflict or any conflict in past 50 years? Its actions and ability to resolve conflict are non-existent. The President further stated; “Not only is the UN not solving the problems it should, too often, it is actually creating new problems for us to solve… The United Nations is funding an assault on Western countries and their borders… The UN is supposed to stop invasions, not create them and not finance them. (Ibid) Look at the crisis in Gaza that has been going on since the Hamas invasion of Israel.”  The President also stated; “Any system that results in the mass trafficking of children is inherently evil — yet that is exactly what the globalist migration agenda has done.” To every terrorist thug smuggling poisonous drugs into the United States of America, please be warned — we will blow you out of existence.”  (Ibid)

Two of the strongest points that President Trump made were about globalization and Christianity. “The entire globalist concept of asking successful, industrialized nations to inflict pain on themselves and radically disrupt their entire societies must be rejected completely and totally — and it must be immediate.” “Together, let us defend free speech and free expression. Let us protect religious liberty, including for the most persecuted religion on the planet today — it’s called Christianity.”  (Ibid) Both areas that have come under serious attack by many of the member nations of the United Nations. President Trump has called them out on it with good reason. Maybe it is time to rethink why we are spending so much money on this rogue faux bureaucracy. Maybe it is time to defund it and restart it from scratch. The United Nations has failed time and time again to reflect either our country's interests or values. It has no transparency nor contributes anything of tangible value to the world’s stage.

 

Speaking of a large, dysfunctional body contributing little to nothing of tangible value with no transparency whatsoever, another such body also has had its organizational roots in Connecticut. The Connecticut State Legislature, run for years by the Connecticut Democrat Party, resembles the United Nations in many ways. The Connecticut State Legislature run for years by the Connecticut Democrat Party has intentionally failed time and time again to reflect either our state's interests or values. Connecticut has massive state debt, a massive illegal drug problem, a massive illegal immigrant problem, a state-run media mob, and a massive infrastructure problem. There are still no answers to the Lamont family in having to account for the money that was given to Infosys Limited, Digital Currency Group and its affiliates, "ADVANCECT", Boston Consulting Group, UNITE US (CT), Mt. Sinai Genomics, "Thermo Fisher Scientific", "Sema 4", " Core Informatics", "Ocrulus", "Urjanet", "1life Healthcare", "Galileo Health", "Castlight Health", "Paladina Health", and "VillageMD"“The Horsebarn Hill Investment Fund”, McKinsey, “CT Next”, and Tidal River Fund, to name a few.  We still have no answers as to why the state is paying over $400,000 in salaries and benefits to Terrence Cheng, the former CSCU chancellor in his new position that can best be described as a nonjob. We still have no answers to what was done in terms of repayment by Cheng, from the state audit that found thousands of dollars in questionable spending by him as CSCU chancellor. We marvel about the continuing nonprofit funding fraud engineered by the should-be-abolished Department of Economic and Community Development fueled by this same legislature. Every week provides us with one more scandal and act of malfeasance and non-accountability to the point where citizens are almost numb by now.

But I guess we all should not care about what both the United Nations and or what the Democrat ruled Connecticut State Legislature does any more with Taxpayers monies. Both organizations, one elected and one un-elected with roots in Connecticut seem to care less as the problems just never cease to be solved in any way, shape, or form. Transparency is forbidden while human life is wasted and hard-earned dollars pay for the constant quagmire and deep swamp of nothingness. Ethics, morals, and a value system are lost with the lack of results that Taxpayers see daily within these autocratic ruled and dysfunctional organizations. It is time to start anew and end the failures of both.

President Trump spoke the truth with regards to the United Nations and outlined as to how it could be a powerful and useful body for good. However, who will do the same about the Democrat ruled Connecticut State Legislature?

 

Truth, Fiction, and The Democrat Media-Industrial Complex

 Even through the darkest moments since the brutal assassination of “Turning Point, USA” founder Charlie Kirk, the Good People of Connecticut should thank God every single day that the state-run Media Mob of the state of Connecticut is not the sole source of news. For in this Bermuda Triangle of Misinformation,  down is up, lies are truth, and we are to all worship at the feet of the one party-driven Democrat Connecticut.

This past week, three issues further cement Connecticut as a state unconcerned with its legal Taxpaying citizens and its massive debt issues, or in dealing with the truth in any way whatsoever.

Let us first look at an incredible "agreement" that Governor Ned Lamont made with Connecticut Chief Justice Raheem L. Mullins. Ever since we were grade-school children, we have been taught that the United States  system of jurisprudence is a crowning jewel of a free society where citizens of a free country can have their grievances heard in an impartial and fair manner. But all that changes in the warped wonderworld of Connecticut. We are now told that the court system is to be supported of everyone, including (but not limited to) those who reside illegally within Connecticut borders. 

Connecticut policy now dictates that we now must somehow understand that courthouses "remain safe and accessible to everyone, regardless of immigration status."  Thus, Lamont and Mullins have now decided to create their own "rules" that intend to supersede federal law by "prohibiting federal immigration agents from conducting warrantless arrests in state courthouses and from wearing masks while inside them."  Lamont further stated; "There have been not a lot of incidents, but there have been some instances, of ICE going into our courthouses, wearing masks, taking people out," Lamont told reporters in Hartford. "[It's] very important that people, immigrants, and even undocumented immigrants, feel safe going into our courthouses. In many cases, they're going into our courthouse as a witness to a crime, doing everything for public safety; more broadly, maybe they've been a victim of abuse. Maybe it's something regarding landlord, whatever it is, people should feel safe going into the courthouse." (https://patch.com/connecticut/across-ct/connecticut-bans-warrantless-ice-arrests-masked-agents-state-courthouses)

Therefore, to illegally slow down and/or attempt to eliminate the arrests of illegal immigrants who are in Connecticut, the woe-begotten policy  "requires federal agents such as U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement officers to obtain a judicial warrant before making an arrest inside a courthouse. It also bars law enforcement from wearing masks while conducting enforcement actions there, unless medically necessary." (Ibid). But of course, this is hypocritically ironic. For now, we are supposed to forget that Ned Lamont and his Democrat Party slammed anyone and everyone if they did not wear their masks for the past five years in their Covid-19 shakedown of the state. Therefore, anyone who lost their job and or business or had their lives ruined during the hostile and draconian Covid-19 shutdowns should be suing the state in these same "safe" and "mask free" courthouses to get their jobs and businesses back. 

The reality is that you are to expect no fairness, clarity, or integrity from anyone in the Democrat-driven Connecticut government, and you are to understand that policies and procedures will be driven entirely by their whims and desires at a given moment. 

Secondly, we really do have Federal Immigration Laws! It is not a myth. The Connecticut state-run Media Mob will lead you to believe that such laws do not exist, or that whatever convoluted and illegal laws (such as the “Trust Act” ) take precedence over Federal law. Or conversely, state legislators from both parties will tell us that their pal State Rep. Corey Paris did not break Federal Immigration Law when he put illegal aliens on “alert” when Federal ICE agents came into his district to arrest them. Unfortunately, 8 U.S.C. § 1324 unambiguously reads to the contrary. However to show he cannot be beat in this category, Lamont overtly conspired this week with state school superintendents (all supported by your tax dollars) to shield illegal students from ICE (https://www.wtnh.com/news/connecticut/hartford/lamont-superintendents-to-meet-on-protecting-students-from-immigration-enforcement/ ) (My friend and colleague Tony De Angelo did a wonderful job of explaining this situation in factual terms on his September 18 THIRTY WITH TONY Show https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EUoewcLhNkc&ab_channel=THIRTYWITHTONY )  . By definition of Federal law every single one of Lamont and the superintendents should be arrested. How that comes down remains to be seen. However, it is quite clear that the political system and the state-run Media Mob of Connecticut will never follow established law if it is inconvenient to their purposes, regardless of if such purposes are legal or ethical.

In addition, Connecticut,which is proud to call itself a “sanctuary state” (while often denying that assertion in its own print  publications),  never discloses how much it costs legal Connecticut Taxpayers to house, give medical benefits, schooling, and other assorted benefits to these illegal immigrants, some who are also criminals in the state.  Why is that? (Shame on you for even asking the question).

But in the Media-Industrial Complex of Connecticut, distortion and obfuscation know no bounds. Once again, we see another embellishment piece published by the CT Mirror regarding darling Finance expert and current Comptroller Democrat Sean Scanlon 

(https://ctmirror.org/2025/09/17/ct-slashes-more-debt-state-worker-health-care/) Scanlon, who never ever fails to postpone a debt payment that he does not like, is once again exhibiting the financial acumen of teenagers by delaying due debts on state obligations, thereby accruing incalculable interest on innocent taxpayers, some not yet born. This is the same Scanlon, being the same person who "won" over Avelo Airlines to have them fly out of Tweed New Haven Airport. This is the same Scanlon who never speaks about the gargantuan long term unfunded liabilities in the state nor is he pressed by any political figures with respect to the same. But of course, Scanlon keeps smiling and of course media accountability is nonexistent. My readers are well-aware of the short- and long-term debt along with the unfunded liabilities of Connecticut. This figure, hovers more than $100,000,000,000 to $150,000,000,000 billion dollars well in excess of the treasured "fiscal guardrails". In practice, it is literally impossible to ascertain as to how much it really is. A recent report by the Connecticut Office of Fiscal Analysis should alarm all legal Connecticut Taxpayers. The report states that for 2024 that there is a shortfall of over $956 million dollars in the state's retirement health trust fund for healthcare eligible state employees. The fund is funded at 16.2% which is apparently a political victory for the Democrats since it was only 10.1% for 2021. I find the costs staggering for the 85,696 retired members, spouses and beneficiaries currently receiving these benefits, considering the overall unfunded retiree health care benefits is over $17 billion dollars. (https://www.cga.ct.gov/ofa/Documents/year/SMF/2026SMF-20250831_Other%20Post%20Employment%20Benefits%20(August%202025).pdf).  But of course, all these concepts are lost to Mr. Scanlon as he smiles for the cameras and faces no hard questions whatsoever as to what is really taking place.

The wretched state of the fisc in Connecticut does not stop there, as bad as that is. The shortfall for the unfunded part of the state pension system (non-health care)  is over $38 billion dollars and is also severely unfunded. The state in just retiree pension and health care costs is in debt for $55 billion dollars. (https://www.truthinaccounting.org/library/doclib/Financial-State-of-the-States-2024.pdf)  This is fiscal leadership by Ned Lamont and his Democrat Party? We are supposed to feel good about this. And what will the SEBAC state employee contract cost Connecticut Taxpayers and how much higher will the state debt become? 

But alas, what does truth matter? The distortion of law and finances are evident in Connecticut and are the results of poor social and fiscal policies enacted by the chronic one-party Democrat rule for many years. The Democrat-driven political system and its attendant Media Mob never offer any solutions but in lieu of that, continually produce made up economic and governance fantasies in a state that continues to spiral out-of-control in so many areas especially with crime and state finances. But reality, incompetence, malfeasance, and obfuscation cannot exist in the same universe. Crime, high taxes, and a lack of transparency are the real Democrat political messages and problems that continue to ignore daily. 

Since the Democrat Media Industrial Complex will not protect you, my very strong admonition is to continually hold these malfeasant souls to a continual reality-based litmus test. Refuse the lies and continually expose falsehoods and demand accountability. It is the only way.

The Shot That Killed Fear and Political Oppresion

 On September 11, 2001, the nation of the United States of America watched in horror as over 3,000 people died in cold blood by attacks made by America-hating terrorists. I vividly remember that day as the enormity of the chaos ensued. I personally never will forget that day and as to what transpired afterwards.

On September 10, 2025, one-half of the nation of the United States of America recoiled in horror as a young leader of a Conservative action movement was gunned down in cold blood in Utah. I qualify this horrific event as only involving one-half of the nation as the other one half of those residing in America cheered, sneered, danced, and laughed at the killing of this young man solely because their worldview did not comport with his. A large part of this same subset also was in the process of cheering on the specter of impending Socialism and Communism in New York City, NY, literally embracing the very forces that tried desperately to destroy New York City a quarter century ago.

By way of the historical timeline, we continued to fight enemies within our country and throughout the world after the 2001 attacks  that wished to lead us to bondage and take away our freedoms, our free way of living and our religious beliefs. For a brief period of time after this day, many people came together praying in public and showing support for America. It was almost impossible to find a hand-held flag, let alone one you could fly from a pole at your home. As there were limitations and resulting concerns for personal freedoms over the next seven years,  the ways of America were to change forever with the election of Barack Obama and Joe Biden in 2008. The eight years of that failed administration saw great losses throughout our world and in our country with respect to the dilutions of personal freedoms, economic freedoms, and the ushering in of a new socialist health care system whose cost have led many to personal bankruptcies due to excessively high medical care costs. As things devolved further, Americans were given a slight reprieve with the election of "outsider" Donald Trump and Mike Pence that took the country and its stoic good old boys political system by storm. President Trump's first years and subsequent four years after he was out of office was pockmarked by political payback and lies spewed by the Democrat Party, later followed in a suspect election victory by the new Biden-Harris dysfunctional and incompetent administration of horrors. However, ever since the Butler, PA attempted assassination of President Donald Trump in 2024, a belief in America has once again dawned on the landscape creating a hope and a possibility vision not seen in years. It is a belief that America-hating people are deathly afraid of, and doing their best to extinguish at all costs.

But let us go back 24 years ago and try to understand what history has taught us. If we look at what is presently taking place, it seems to many that the history of that wretched day has been long forgotten by the injection of Socialism, liberalism and its wretched, failed leaders and policies. A quarter of a century ago, we were under attack by dastardly enemies of our country. Terrorism and its threats were real. Now 24 years later, we are supposed to accept that the terroristic and destructive elements of Communism, Socialism, open borders, and unchecked violence by paid protesters and freedom for our most violent criminals and illegal aliens are the norm. Why must we accept that? And why must we accept a daily condemnation of all things which at one time were "normal" to us and our society and be made to feel ashamed for wanting them?

On September 10, 2025, a young man who feared no one and who dared to speak the truth was assassinated in cold blood in the presence of his spouse and infant children. Charlie Kirk, head of “Turning Point, USA,” was shot to death while talking to a college crowd. His death due to an act of unwarranted political violence, received the usual blathering of “violence has no place in the political discourse” from Democrat Connecticut political figures while many mentally ill and violent persons simultaneously cheer at the taking of this dear young life, curiously without denouncement from these same political figures. (This sordid subject was well-covered by my friend and colleague Tony De Angelo on his THIRTY WITH TONY A TABLE BEFORE MY ENEMIES THRTY WITH TONY 9 11 2025 ) But moreover, why have we have succumbed to this type of violence in our political arena?  Could it be the incessant hateful rhetoric of hatred that is force fed to us daily by Democrats such as United States Senator Chris Murphy and United States Representative Chuck Schumer? Could it be the arrogance and disdain exhibited to normal modest citizens exhibited daily by Governor Ned Lamont or the shameful hatred of taxpaying citizens in Connecticut shown by the likes of State Senators Bob Duff and Matt Lesser and Attorney General William Tong? Could it be a result that the elements of Communism, Socialism, unchecked violence by paid protesters, and open borders, all of which are supported by the Democrat Party, have allowed for this type of violence to be encouraged and accepted by the political left?

A TABLE BEFORE MY ENEMIES THRTY WITH TONY 9 11 2025

 But unfortunately for these twisted individuals, Charlie Kirk's death will help to create thousands of new Charlie Kirk's. The new thousands will be young Christians and Conservatives who are not afraid of freedom, commitment,  relationships with God, death and dying, nor expressing Conservative points of view in the political arena. These people will not be afraid of stating when something is wrong and harmful to our society. They will not be afraid of speaking out on their religious beliefs. Nor will they be afraid to call out and disrupt the operation of the political cancers that are trying to steal our freedoms and way of life away from us.

Communism, Socialism, unchecked violence by paid protesters, atheism and the fringes of a derelict Democrat Party society and economy have all failed America in 2025. The fight for freedom began anew on 9/11/2001. On 9/10/2025, the Turning Point was reached and is now being embraced by millions of true Americans who desire freedoms in all forms, religious, family and economically.Their voices will be heard, loudly and clearly from this day forward. 

For  like the character Howard Beale in the great 1976 movie “Network”, they are Mad as Hell, and they are not going to take it anymore.

The State of Connecticut Has A Much Bigger Problem Than Crime And Incompetency

 The State of Connecticut Has A Crime Problem: Auto thefts surged by 33% in 2023 alone, jumping from 7,091 reported incidents in 2022 to a staggering 9,400, marking the third-highest percentage increase nationwide and leaving countless residents vulnerable to brazen juvenile offenders who often face minimal consequences. Persistent strings of car break-ins and thefts in 2025 continue to terrorize communities from Montville to Fairfield, underscoring a systemic failure to curb property crimes that erode public trust and safety. Almost every Connecticut city is a horrific and mismanaged hellhole. 

However, the gist of this article is not crime.

 The State of Connecticut Has A Competency Problem: Unhinged Liberal Incompetent Scraggly Bearded United States Senator Chris Murphy makes a fool of himself moment by moment on “X” with his repetitive nonsensical babbling reflecting his entire lack of conceptual understanding of any issue but also reflecting a crystal-clear hatred of President Donald J. Trump. Congressional Representative Rosa DeLauro, one of the oldest in Congress at age 82, is embarrassing in appearance and a babbling shame, shunning any suggestions of improvement or developmental vision for her pitiful Congressional district. Senior United States Combat Veteran Senator Richard Blumenthal lied about serving in Vietnam and lied about “not knowing” that he was addressing a Communist convention in 2021. Attorney General William Tong in his furious defense of illegal alien rights, called for a boycott of “Avelo Airlines” in New Haven, either not knowing (or caring) that the fiscally incompetent state Comptroller Sean Scanlon engineered the Avelo arrangement for the inadequate Tweed New Haven Airport campus, residential safety and noise pollution be damned. And not to be undone, Governor Ned Lamont (affectionately known as “King Ned, The Unaccountable”)  continues to move from fraud to scam, the latest being to corrupt the entire state with a new generation of incipient slum housing that helps along one of his wife’s investments, while he is trying to convince his wealthy neighbors in Greenwich that he has everyone’s best interests at heart. 

However, the gist of this article is not political incompetency.

Connecticut has many more problems too numerous to mention. But I submit unto you that Connecticut, (aka the State That Cannot Do One Thing Right) has a far greater problem than either of the above problems. It is horrible. It is insidious. It is crippling. It can send the state into bankruptcy and erode private capital and destroy any viability in the state whatsoever.

It is the Debt Problem.

Regardless of what the state-run media and the political system tell you, The State of Connecticut has a debt problem.  There is now an awareness and understanding of the debt and how much debt Connecticut is obligated to pay. Using real numbers, let us examine how much in debt Connecticut is in, and why this should be the number one issue in the upcoming state election in 2026.

To my knowledge, I am the only writer or reporter that has mentioned Connecticut has $100,000,000,000 to $150,000,000,000 (billion) dollars in short- and long-term debt along with unfunded liabilities. Certainly, no candidate or office holder has ever mentioned anything along the line. For a state as small as Connecticut and as small of a population that it has, this is a massive fiscal red flag. But it is not, as the Connecticut Democrat Party just cannot seem to tax and spend enough to satisfy its political special interest groups such as the state employee unions, myriad and unaccountable nonprofits, and politically connected state patronage jobs over the past four decades.

Here are some real fiscal facts that the entire political establishment avoids talking about as published in "The Financial State of the States 2024" report published by Truth in Accounting (https://www.truthinaccounting.org/library/doclib/Financial-State-of-the-States-2024.pdf). Connecticut in this report was given a "F" grade, ranking the state fifty out of 50 (or last) as far as its financial state of affairs. From the report found on pages 50 and 51, "Connecticut had $21 billion available to pay $85.9 billion worth of bills". This figure will increase in 2025 as some federal funding will no longer be available to the state. 

Trying to break down the $85.9 billion dollars’ worth of bills in complex and difficult to ascertain. Connecticut in each year's budget, which increases each year, also increases its bonding and borrowing within. Bonds are issued in the state for many reasons including building projects and other related items in the state. Bonds are issued to finance "debt" in the state. Total bonds in the state for 2024 were $34,355,859,000 according to the report. Also according to the report, Unfunded Pension Benefits were $38,010,340,000 and Unfunded Retiree Health Care Benefits were $17,091,549,000. In simple terms, this means every Connecticut citizen down to the smallest infant minimally shoulders a $25,000 debt of the state for which they did not cause. These figures are astronomical for a state as small as Connecticut and unsustainable in any way. Moreover, this massive obligation is more than the supposed "fiscal guardrails" that continue to be ignored by Connecticut's Political Fiscal Barons for what little value they provide. But more clear-headed people are seeing this horrific situation for what it is. My good friend and colleague Tony De Angelo also discussed Connecticut's per person state debt is his segment on Tuesday 9/2 on the 94.9 Lee Elci show (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0rJCaC5DusE)  

The state therefore has a massive debt problem. It also does not have enough assets to cover all its debt. The Connecticut Democrat Party laughs about (or fails to comprehend) the debt issue by its usual incoherent economic gibberish. This incoherent economic gibberish includes the usual babblings that the wealthy do not pay enough in taxes, businesses do not pay enough in taxes, there are not enough social programs to help people, more funding is needed in education and that state workers deserve much higher wages and benefits. Economic reality does not exist in the state as Connecticut continues to be a bottom five state in many economic categories. This fact is glossed over by the new, younger incoherent leftist and socialist Democrat candidates that have announced their intentions to run Governor, United States House seats and state legislature seats. Where the money will come from to pay for all their "giveaways" remains a mystery to most educated voters, but not to them as they simply do not understand, let alone care.

It is a simplistic question that truly needs to be addressed by anyone running for Governor, on any ticket in 2026. Republicans that have continually failed to challenge Democrats on many  issues must first learn to understand this most critical debt issue and secondly challenge Democrats and Socialists continually. What is your plan for paying off the massive debt and unfunded liabilities of Connecticut's government in both the short and long run? What does the plan entail? How long will it take? What will you do to decrease state spending? What will you do to whittle the bulbous and often inept state workforce? These questions should be asked daily until there are specific answers to the same. But I am not confident that will ever happen, as courage is in short supply in Connecticut government.

You see, Connecticut's state government is like a drug addict. To feed the drug monkey an addict often lies and steals. It keeps taking drugs at all costs, looking for its next fix. That fix is your tax money wasted on another failed social program and or non-profit who could be pilfering as there are no financial controls on either. That fix is a long-serving state politician getting a simplistic state nonjob to help boost his or her state pension. That fix is to give money to a politically connected business or individual for their work in a campaign, with no worries as to how the money is spent and if it is ever paid back. 

And so, it remains in the indentured state of fiscally insolvent Connecticut. Connecticut Taxpayers are damned while the benefaction and veneration of the State's Political and Administrative Bureaucracy is the most critical work that our state government must perform. So let the state perform that critically valuable work all the way into bankruptcy. Regrettably, bankruptcy may be the only cure to eliminate the waste, fraud, crime, incompetency, and debt of Connecticut, once and for all.

Obstruction, Obfuscation, and Obnoxiousness. (Welcome To The Democrat Way of 2025)

 The blame game. Obstruction. Lack of vision. Incompetency. Obscenity. Complaint. Embarrassment. Welcome in to Democrat Politics in 2025. The Democrat Party in 2025 places blame on all the supposed issues of our economy and society on everyone and everything except themselves, as they are without sin. Per them, it always the Republicans fault and of course all things President Trump. President Trump, much to the pleasure of the Democrat Party, has had to endure hundreds of lawsuits based on frivolous and inane interpretations of the law. That is just fine because it is all part of the Democrat Party blame and obstruction game. It is the game of interfering, regardless of the consequences to the citizen, the state, or the country. All of us, be damned.

The Democrat Party blame game currently can be seen in the stoic United States Senate with only 135 of the over 1,000 senior level appointments requiring Senate confirmation completed. "Democrats have forced multiple roll-call votes on more than 40 nominees for posts never subject to a single one. These confirmations used to take seconds. Now, each can take days. Today, 145 qualified nominees already approved by committees await full Senate approval. Nearly half these nominees earned bipartisan support in committee, and many have been waiting for months. Yet all are trapped in Senate procedural purgatory." (https://www.wsj.com/opinion/chuck-schumers-unprecedented blockade-66fb7741) Regardless of the welfare of the country, the Democrat Party blame game is helping to keep many important and critical government positions unfilled as they play their wicked political reprisal game due to their hatred of all things Donald Trump. The Democrat Party feels that this is good governing and how a government should run "efficiently" and for all the citizens they supposedly represent (or not). Because citizens do not matter as much as they do. (And shame on you if you think otherwise).

In addition, I am pleased to inform you that the Democrat Party blame game is alive and well in Connecticut where all sorts of rants, screams, protests, false crises, and incoherent gibberish are echoed daily. Of course, the Democrat calling card is invariably somehow tied to racism. On or about August 15, Connecticut Democrat State Representative Corey Paris provided a clear warning on Instagram to illegal aliens in his district to help them avoid Federal authorities. Of course, some illegal aliens are violent criminals and could very well place Rep. Paris’ constituents at risk of great harm. But ostensibly, Rep. Paris did not care. In a shameful embarrassment to Connecticut, the popular site “Libs of Tik Tok” re-posted this news and referred the post to the U.S. Justice Department with Rep. Paris' picture . Rather than Democrats reconnoitering, repenting, and re-doing because of this national humiliation and clear violation of Federal law, a farcical multi-party Democrat press conference was called in front of state-run media where we viewed the spectacle of a middle aged Liberal white woman (Rep. Eleni Kavros DeGraw) come to the defense of Rep. Paris by claiming his notoriety was due to the fact that “he is a Black Man in this country”  (https://x.com/libsoftiktok/status/1958239516646392115).  My friend and colleague Tony De Angelo asked on his THIRTY WITH TONY show if “Libs of Tik Tok” would have stopped short of making Rep. Paris’ post highlighting this felony if Rep. Paris were white. (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EWh2cvY7yaQ). As ridiculous as that question may seem, it is not at all surprising, as this is how the Democrat mindset continually seeks the lowest common denominator even if such a denominator makes no sense at all. Unfortunately, we are all quite used to this by now.

If you believe this low level pandering is bad, all becomes even worse. On Wednesday August 27, a mentally tormented transgender named Robin Westman ambushed Catholic school children praying in a school Mass, wounding eighteen and killing two. Shortly thereafter, we were treated to numerous outbursts of Democrat officeholders and talking heads deriding God, prayer, the Second Amendment (and of course, Donald Trump). It was truly a sickeningly remarkable sight as these twisted actions by self-aggrandizing political actors exhibited no regard for the wounded and the bereaved. However, not to be undone, pathetic celebrity wannabe Connecticut State Senator Bob Duff took the opportunity to post on Facebook and related the horrific shooting to Fox TV, Cracker Barrel, and the right wing, thus engendering more embarrassment for Connecticut: https://x.com/DailyCaller/status/1961134287065096208 . Unfortunately, in the Democrat blame game, this tired and sick act is one that we are all sick and tired of seeing by now.

But wait, there is more! Let us move to the national stage! The trio of  Connecticut Attorney General William Tong standing along unhinged United States Senator Chris Murphy and Vietnam Veteran United States Senator Richard Blumenthal bluster, declaim and roar about all the horrific things that the Republicans and in particular what President Trump is doing.  The President’s actions include (but are not limited to)  deporting illegal immigrants who were able to walk into our country during the failed Democrat Biden Administration, eliminating crime, thefts, and murders by making streets safe and by allowing law enforcement people to do their jobs, cutting waste, fraud and political nepotism out of our government, cutting off the flow of illegal drugs that has created a never ending crisis of death and dying, forcing states to follow laws that they are not following and much, much more.  But who cares? Daily, we are treated to the Litany of Horrors! The audacity of President Trump and the Republican Party attempting to make our nation safer! The audacity of President Trump and the Republican Party attempting to eliminate illegal drugs from our society! The audacity of President Trump and the Republican Party attempting to make our nation prosper! What will become of us when he declares himself ruler for life, (assuming we can survive in all of this mayhem until then?) 

The Democrat Party blame game perpetually continues. The Democrat Party refuses to understand that it offers nothing any more to the American public except for the same stale arguments of redistribution of wealth (excluding themselves), legal rights for criminals and not for the victims, rights for illegal immigrants but not for legal United States citizens, and a new failed version of socialism where everything is free, and everyone is the same.  The Democrat Party cannot handle being in the minority in 2025. They cannot handle their epic failures. They cannot handle that their brand of elitist politics has struck a raw nerve of opposition by those individuals who work hard in the economy, want to live in safety, want to raise their families with respect, and have a belief in God.

The Democrat Party blame game will continue to be a losing proposition. As it should be. It is now ostensible that the Democrat mission is to destroy anything that is coherent, productive, believing, and useful in America. The Democrat Party hates America and anyone who voices opposition to their fetid and putrid policies. President Trump has created hope once again in our way of life and our country and is causing an energy not seen since the early days of Ronald Reagan. Its Morning in America once again. But these concepts are repulsive to Democrats that love darkness and hate America. 

And America loves the daylight now visible at the end of a long, dark tunnel. It has been too long in coming.
