At What Point?

At what point, does the Connecticut Taxpayer call it quits with Connecticut, and in particular, the Connecticut Democrat Party?

 

At what point, does the Connecticut Taxpayer call it quits with Connecticut, and in particular, a complete lack of transparency and accountability in state government and a reluctance for any sort of effective change?

 

At what point, does the Connecticut Taxpayer call it quits with Connecticut, and in particular, the massive amount of crime and theft that occurs on a daily basis?

 

At what point, does the Connecticut Taxpayer call it quits with Connecticut, and in particular, its lies, deceptions, and fraud? 

At what point, does the Connecticut Taxpayer call it quits with Connecticut and in particular, paying taxes to support what is a massively corrupted state government? 

 

 

At what point, does the Connecticut Taxpayer call it quits with Connecticut, and with a minority party that always tries to be “acceptable” by the majority and state-run media, as opposed to one championing sound Republican and economic principles that are bearing great fruit in other states?

 

Connecticut state government has a large credibility problem. As much as current Democrat Governor Ned Lamont is trying to somehow hoist the blame on Republican Gubernatorial Candidate Ryan Fazio and President Trump for all the ills of Connecticut, Lamont's confusion is a superb example of his party's failures. I will remind all again that Ned Lamont and the Connecticut Democrat Party has raised taxes consistently since his first term in office. Ned Lamont and the Connecticut Democrat Party have been involved in numerous scandals including, (but not limited to), ballot fraud, fundraising fraud, non-profit fraud, lawmaking while drunk and driving while drunk crimes, larceny from tax-exempt organizations, sexual harassment, and contract fraud.

Readers well know the usual unanswered questions from Ned Lamont as to where his footsteps (and those of his spouse Annie Lamont) have taken them, but they bear repeating: 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", "4-CT", and "VillageMD ““The Horsebarn Hill Investment Fund”, McKinsey, “CT Next”, and the Tidal River Fund, “Baby Bonds” portfolio, the UCONN Foundation,-never an answer to his family's Hedge fund involvement in each.  This query would be an excellent question at the upcoming Governor's debate, but we know it will never be asked, as Republicans in Connecticut just don’t do things like that.

What about a Connecticut Taxpayer timeline for repayment from Democratic State Senator Douglas McCrory for his payoffs in the Blue Hills Civic Association debacle? I guess $15,000,000 is lost for good once again for Connecticut Taxpayers.

 

How about “People’s Champion” State Senator Martha Marx be forced to give account for her admitted act of vandalism in cutting the electric wires under her legislative seat in 2024? How about the state demanding repayment for the over $15,000 damage she caused? How about the Capitol Police showing courage for once and turning over the police report for this act of vandalism instead of playing “hide the ball” with it? How about Republicans calling for her accountability and arrest for this act as we still are within the criminal Statute of Limitations for this action? Great question. But we know it will never be asked, as Republicans in Connecticut just don’t do things like that.

 

How about a Democratic state senator being offered a seat on PURA in exchange to support Chairwoman Marissa Gillett’s reappointment. No big deal here, as Connecticut seems to a proving ground for the inept and incompetent.

Let us not forget the constant Bridgeport Democrat Party ballot fraud and the never-ending scam that it creates for "honest" elections. These "honest" elections are a focal point for incredible, ninth-inning-rally election victories for Connecticut Democrat Party candidates. 

 How about fixing the Connecticut State Colleges and Universities system, which is a free for all of deception and corruption? Just look at Chancellor Terrence Cheng who resigned following an investigation into questionable spending only to get some incoherent consulting contract. In addition, his interim successor, John Maduko, resigning over a sexual harassment complaint. Why are Connecticut's college students putting up with this corruption? Why aren’t sound fiscally responsible Republicans calling for a consolidation of the State Colleges and Universities under one administrative umbrella (as opposed to four?) But we know this will never be asked, as Republicans in Connecticut just don’t do things like that.

 

In education, don't forget the “essential,” no bid contract of $250,000 for Democrat Party hack, Miguel Cardona and his new report that says essentially that nothing to improve Connecticut's failing educational system. This would certainly stand to reason, for if Miguel Cardona turned in a report saying the system needed improvement, the first action item for said improvement, would be the removal of Miguel Cardona.

Last but least we have the “Greek Tragedy” drama of Kosta Diamantis, a man that apparently no one wants to believe as being the least bit truthful in his detailed descriptions of the corrupted Lamont administration. My colleague Tony De Angelo talked about this at length on this past week's “Power Hour” on the 94.9 FM “Lee Elci Show” https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EjuJjy_qKHQ&t=72s.

The never-ending saga of the Connecticut Democrat driven Connecticut cesspool never ceases to amaze those who toil in Connecticut and are forced to pay their taxes to support all of this corruption and deception.  Connecticut still has $100,000,000,000 to $150,000,000,000 billion dollars in short- and long-term debt along with unfunded liabilities and is adding to those debts daily without any revenue generation or plans for repayment https://hartfordbusiness.com/article/dodd-stadium-revamp-tops-66-4m-in-state-community-investment-fund-awards/  .  My readers know I have spoken about this for years. My best guess estimate is that 30% of this debt has been caused by all types of fraud. This fraud includes interest free (or 2% interest) loans to failed or nonexistent businesses, loans that are never paid back by these same failed or nonexistent businesses, overcharging by contractors in order to secure contracts that include paybacks to state officials, excessive padded state employee overtime payments that are also included in pension obligations,  state created jobs for former state politicians and the politically connected, along with the costs of illegal aliens in the state, among other things.  

Thus, this is the real situation in Connecticut and the real record that Ned Lamont and the Connecticut Democrat Party are running on. Lies, deception and fraud. Connecticut Taxpayers and voters are sick of it and have had enough. Change cannot come soon enough for this failed state of disrepair.

 

The Connecticut Democrat Party candidate does not deserve your vote at any level of government, federal, state, or local in this election. It is truly time for a real change in all facets of government, politics, and political party practices and methods in 2026. This, is indeed that point of inflection.

Connecticut: Its Not For Citizens Anymore

 It is rather for us to be here dedicated to the great task remaining before us that from these honored dead we take increased devotion to that cause for which they here gave the last full measure of devotion - that we here highly resolve that these dead shall not have died in vain that this nation, under God, shall have a new birth of freedom, and that government of the people, by the people, for the people, shall not perish from the earth.

President Abraham Lincoln

The Gettysburg Address

Gettysburg, Pennsylvania
November 19, 1863

The great writings and the leadings of America’s founding fathers were unequivocally clear in that our government was to be governed by its people, or in effect, ruled by its people via its choice of elected officials. But to be clear, America-hating Connecticut has caused that design of government to perish and is now ruled not by elected officials, but by a coalition of Communists, Socialists, lobbyists, funders, fringe parts of the Democrat Socialists of America, a state run media, hedge funds and elected officials/political cronies/activists such as Ned Lamont, Chris Murphy, Richard Blumenthal, Rosa DeLauro, Jim Himes, Sean Scanlon, Stephanie Thomas, Erick Russell and William Tong, just to name a few. Connecticut is in a laughable and pathetic state which is due to this coalition of fanatics and psychopaths who claim to represent both illegal and legal citizens of Connecticut.

Connecticut Communist Socialist Democrat Czar-Tyrant-Supreme Ruler Attorney General William Tong is a case study in why he is unfit to serve and should be voted out of office. For if you disagree with him, especially if you endorse President Trump and his policies, you obviously are skating on thin ice with ruling Connecticut Democrat Party Politburo. A gentle criticism was levied from Republican Candidate for Attorney General, John Bolton    Last Thursday, Connecticut’s Attorney General – allegedly “the People’s Lawyer”– stood at a podium and told the people of Connecticut that if they stand with the President, they are — his words — “disqualified from serving in office.” He said it twice, and it was directed at all Republicans. Let every voter, of every party, hear that clearly: the state’s top law enforcement officer just declared that Americans are unfit to serve their neighbors simply because he may not agree with their politics. I'm John Bolton, and I'm running for Attorney General because Connecticut deserves an Attorney General who represents all of its people, regardless of their political beliefs. (https://x.com/jb4ag26/status/2100368430150938927)  A more directed and pointed commentary on this foul event was delivered by my friend and colleague Tony De Angelo who asked, point blank, if state Republicans are controlled by the state Democrat party in order to let such a display pass without criticism and anger by Republicans. https://x.com/TonyDeAngelo7/status/2098755883396174120 . However, the fundamental issue remains. The citizens of Connecticut do not rule Connecticut in any way, shape, or form.

 

 Meanwhile, we turn back to the rambling dictates of Attorney General Tong: “Connecticut is under attack every single day, and we need to build an even stronger firewall to protect Connecticut families,” the 53-year-old Democrat declared during a conversation Thursday on WNHH FM’s “Dateline New Haven.” “I’ve been doing that for eight years, and have stood up to the most powerful forces, the biggest, most powerful corporate monopolies, the president of the United States. “I don’t care how big or bad you are. If you hurt Connecticut, I’m going to fight back.”  (https://www.newhavenindependent.org/2026/09/04/tong-vows-to-keep-fighting-trump/"

Many normal and legal Connecticut Taxpayers are both irate and livid about the daily exhibit of Tong's serious Trump Derangement Syndrome. Are we supposed to laugh him off or seek legal action against this Democrat bully? Are we supposed to petition for his psychiatric admission? One truly wonders. It is my opinion that Republican John Bolton represents a breath of fresh air for the office and that would be a much better solution than any of the above.

But Hey! When you are sitting at the top of the world, the rest of the world can roll along down a cliff. And there is one at the top of the world topping off the family coffers like the top guy. Governor Ned Lamont has been busy for eight years now bringing home the bacon for the Lamont family of hidden business, business deals and other assorted secret, non-transparent arrangements for the Oak HC hedge fund. Lamont does not answer questions on how much did his family's hedge fund profited 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", "4-CT", and "VillageMD ““The Horsebarn Hill Investment Fund”, McKinsey, “CT Next”, and the Tidal River Fund, “Baby Bonds” portfolio, the UCONN Foundation, to name a few.  But hey that is old news. Now Lamont, in his latest campaign is hammering Republican Candidate for Governor Ryan Fazio for many of the horrific state ills that Lamont and his Democrat Party created. That is exceptionally brazen coming for the corrupted Lamont syndicate and his Democrat cronies. Mysteriously, Fazio, and his campaign has been silent on the attack front concerning the King’s corruption, racketeering, and malfeasance and one can let their mind run wild as to how and why this is the case.

But I may be misguided. For after all, Lamont "found" $50,000,000 to save rural Connecticut hospitals that somehow is the evil president Trump money-the President Trump William Tong despises but apparently loves when it can buy votes for Connecticut's Socialists.  My good friend Tony De Angelo on X exposed this latest Democrat fraud and covered it on his THIRTY WITH TONY video show; In the category of the @ryanfazio campaign and the @CTGOPneed to wake up, please see the below. Tomorrow, Sept. 16 @GovNedLamontwill come to Putnam to tell us all about the Rural Health Grants HE brought to all of us. The grants come from Connecticut’s share of the federal Rural Health Transformation Program (RHTP), a $50 billion, five-year initiative ($10 billion per year, 2026–2030) created by the One Big Beautiful Bill Act (OBBBA / H.R. 1 / Public Law 119-21), signed in July 2025.) In simple English, the grants come from@POTUS

Trump Money. TRUMP Money. (In simpler English, the grants are being used against Republicans) You see that? Wake up, people. It gets late early out there. (https://x.com/TonyDeAngelo7/status/2100029082616373369).

You just cannot make this stuff up.

From top to bottom Connecticut's Democrats are a bunch of incompetent, incoherent, and scandalous political tools. Contrary to their lies that are amplified by either weak (or non-existent) opposition, Connecticut, still has $100,000,000,000 to $150,000,000,000 billion dollars in short- and long-term debt along with unfunded liabilities. It has moved billions over dollars off budget over the years and hidden that from public view and comment. It has also established a multi-layered complex grift with state-funded non-profits that are completely exempt from Freedom of Information and real-time monitoring, with no legislative desire anywhere to change that. Politicians run and hide at the apropos demand for a citizen DOGE. There is no transparency and little truth being spoken in Hartford. Legal and disconnected Connecticut Taxpayers and voters are not pleased with their current Democrat One Party Rule in Hartford, despite biased election polls reflecting how poorly the Republican candidates are doing via a state-paid: poll effort to discourage voters. Voters are begging for some real leadership not incessant gibberish of their hatred of all things Republican and President Trump, for regardless of how the state Republican Party may feel, 44% of the state voted for him in 2024. Is it a wonder? Not at all. The unending and relentless criticisms of Democrats while offering no solutions, coupled with their unyielding support of illegal aliens is truly a spectacle of failed leadership and a violation of both the state and federal constitution.

Usually, it takes time to right bad situations. Things do not improve overnight. There are much better candidates that Connecticut Voters can vote for in November than these Socialist crybabies of hatred. Vote for them, and for for the last time, start Connecticut on a path of changing its awful direction where change is so critically needed.

Excessive Taxation: It Just Would Not Be Connecticut Without It

 

In early 1966 The Beatles learned they faced a 95% top tax rate under Harold Wilson’s Labour government. George Harrison, who had grown up poor, was stunned that most of their new wealth was disappearing. In a February,1966 interview. he compared Wilson to the Sheriff of Nottingham, and was moved upon to write the following song lyrics:

Let me tell you how it will be
There's one for you, nineteen for me
'Cause I'm the taxman
Yeah, I'm the taxman
Should five percent appear too small
Be thankful I don't take it all
'Cause I'm the taxman
Yeah, I'm the taxman
I'll tax the street
(If you try to sit, sit) I'll tax your seat
(If you get too cold, cold) I'll tax the heat
(If you take a walk, walk) I'll tax your feet
(Taxman)
'Cause I'm the taxman
Yeah, I'm the taxman
The Taxman; The Beatles 1966 https://www.thebeatles.com/taxman

 

Two things in the above historical scenario are extremely fascinating to me. The first is that politicians through the ages have felt that just about every social problem can be solved by increasing taxes and types of taxes. The second is that these same politicians never seem to be fazed by the departure of citizens from their region as the result of that increased taxation.

Just like George Harrison sixty years ago, and thousands of Connecticut residents today, the best, the brightest, and the most productive leave places where their very lifeblood is sucked from them by government. In Connecticut, the primary blame falls at the feet of Democrats for this economic wreckage, while a tepid at best Republican contingent has provided scant pushback (or tacit acceptance ) of these destructive policies.

 

First let us examine the Democrats. The Connecticut Democrat Party love taxes, and to tax.  Why they have not yet taxed the air we breathe is beyond me.  Therefore, let us look at some of these taxes are embraced, nurtured and raised on a regular basis to support a bloated, deficit ridden Democrat state budget, gross Administrative State incompetency and over-compensation, and long-term debt.

 

Business taxes? One may wonder how any business stays in business in Connecticut with the taxes businesses pay.  In addition, please note that Connecticut's Business taxes rank near the highest in the country while the Business climate ranks in the bottom five in the country.  

Let’s start our list as is stated on  

 (https://business.ct.gov/ct-business-taxes?language=en_US)

Corporation Business Tax: C-corporations pay a flat rate of 7.5% with a minimum tax of $250, plus a 10% surtax for large corporations. Pass-Through Entity (PTE) Tax: S-corporations, partnerships, and LLCs treated as partnerships face a tax rate of 6.99%.

Sales and Use Tax: The state general sales and use tax rate is 6.35%, applied to retail goods and certain services.

Personal Income Tax: Sole proprietors and single-member LLCs report business profits on personal income tax returns, with progressive rates from 2% to 6.99%. 

Unemployment Insurance Tax: Employers must pay this state tax to cover eligible unemployed workers and have often paid for those collecting illegally as it is well-known that the state bureaucracy is far too inept to catch cheaters.  (Just ask any business owner).

Here are some other business taxes paid in the state:

Admissions and Dues Tax
Attorney Occupational Tax
Alcohol Beverage/Distributor Tax
Business Entity Tax
Cannabis Tax
Cigarette Tax
Composite Income Tax
Controlling Interest Transfer Tax
CT-IFTA
Dry Cleaning Establishment Tax
Electric Companies
Electronic Cigarette Products Tax
Estate/Gift/Succession/Trust  
Gasohol Tax
Gross Earnings Tax
Health Care Provider User Fees
Insurance / Health Care Taxes
Miscellaneous Tax
Motor Carrier Road Tax
Motor Vehicle Fuels Tax
Pass-Through Entity Tax
Petroleum Gross Earnings Tax
Prepaid Wireless E-9-1-1 Fee
Real Estate Conveyance Tax
Rental Surcharge Annual Report
Room Occupancy
Solid Waste Assessment
Special Fuel Tax
Tax Paid Motor Vehicle Fuels Tax
Tobacco Products Tax
Tourism Surcharge
Unrelated Business Income Tax

If you are a business in the state, you are collecting a great deal of different taxes, all requiring different forms to fill out and pay from. Also,

there is always confusion as to why gasoline and diesel prices are so high in Connecticut.  Walk up and ask this question of any Democrat, and you will be condescendingly told that these taxes are the fault of President Trump.  If a sane individual looks more closely Connecticut drivers pay a 25 cent per gallon excise tax, an 8.1% special gross receipts/earnings tax per gallon, and 18.4 Federal excise tax per gallon.  Thus 51.4 cents of each gallon of gas you buy is tax.  

 

And since all goods are brought to you by a truck, that all factors into "affordability" And Donald Trump has had absolutely nothing to do with any of that issue of "affordability" in Connecticut.

 

 Do you dislike that? Well, it gets even worse. In Connecticut. there are over 850 different business licenses and permits one needs to apply for when either starting a business and/ or working in one of these 850 different areas in the state.  The question that now needs to be asked (and avoided by everyone in politics) is why so many illegal aliens were given Drivers licenses in Connecticut, and how many of the illegal aliens who currently reside in Connecticut have avoided getting any of these permits/licenses?

 

Connecticut Taxpayers are taxed on mostly everything they consumer and/ or work for.  Connecticut's Utopian State Income Tax (which was going to solve all of the state's budget problems starting from 1991), is progressive with a 6.99% graduated rate.  Tax exemptions are minimal except for those who are here illegally and do not pay (but yet can have a driver’s license and presumably be allowed to vote).  While working, you will pay a Connecticut Paid Leave funded by an employee payroll contribution tax of 0.5% of your total eligible wages up to your Social Security base limit.  Yes, you get to pay a tax on "paid leave" even though you may never use it and the bulk of the money goes to administration costs of implementing it (Read: paid political patronage jobs). 

 

Sales tax is charged on an excessive amount of different items.  But yet, as a bone thrown to Connecticut Taxpayers, for one week only, only once a year is "Tax Free Week"!  This allows the peasants better known as Connecticut Taxpayers, an exemption applies to individual clothing and footwear items priced under $300.  Items include are everyday clothing, footwear, along with backpacks and athletic cleats.  (Gee…isn’t Connecticut great!)

 

Electricity costs are one of the highest in the country.  A big reason is the "Public Benefits Charge" which according Eversource is the "portion includes costs mandated by the state and federal government for financial assistance and energy efficiency programs, purchasing renewable and carbon-free electricity, and funding solar and electric vehicle incentives to help make it easier to take advantage of clean energy options." (https://www.eversource.com/residential/account-billing/manage-bill/about-your-bill/understanding-your-bill/delivery-charge-supply-cost). For many this charge accounts for 20% of their bill and should also be considered a tax.  In trying to see where this money is going along with how much greater energy efficiency is progressing, is difficult to ascertain in true Connecticut Non-transparent fashion. 

Even though this is supposed to be something different, one must then conclude that this is yet another Connecticut tax.

 

But wait! You ARE happier in Connecticut than other states in the country according to a bombshell report! https://www.wtnh.com/news/connecticut/connecticut-ranks-in-top-10-happiest-states/  From the report; Connecticut ranks in the top 10 happiest states, according to a new WalletHub study! The study weighed internal and external factors, such as the number of adults suffering from depression, adequate sleep rate, suicide rate, number of work hours, volunteer rate, separation and divorce rate, safety and the share of adults feeling active and productive. Connecticut was ranked as the seventh happiest state in America!  In reading the metrics of the study, there was indication how these results were generated. As one X commentator noted:   Happiness is much different than most states. Happiness is waking up to see your car wasn’t stolen in the night. “Happiness is knowing that the CT General Assembly is not in session and as such another new tax wasn’t shoved down our throats. Happiness means your favorite family-owned restaurant hasn’t closed due to abusive taxation and utility rates.” https://x.com/MrIkeTurner14/status/2097662345988170161

 

Connecticut is drastically over-taxed and even with that, continues with $100-$150 billion dollars in short- and long-term debt, along with myriad and massive unfunded liabilities.  Connecticut is drastically over-taxed and still ranks as a "Top Five" state in high taxes.  Connecticut is drastically over-taxed and still ranks as Bottom Five state for business climate and conditions.  Connecticut has a highly redundant, error-prone, and overpaid Administrative State that neither party has proposed reworking for decades. The model is failed, and has failed for decades. At what level of taxation will the state debt be paid off and a real balanced budget exist?  100%? 200%? More?  Does any politician even know? (Or care?)

 

Of course, in a sane world, the best hope for turning the tide of such an oppressive regime would be the stalwart voice of the opposing political party. But unfortunately, Connecticut is not a sane world, and the same decades long situation exists here as well, in reverse. This past week the Connecticut Republican Party unveiled their “affordability” tax plan which promised at best spot relief and no fundamental changes to a wretched and failed system badly needing restructuring from the top, down. https://ctmirror.org/2026/09/09/gop-legislators-ct-tax-relief/

Predictably, even this lukewarm at-best proposal received major pushback from economically insane Democrats that first blamed Donald Trump, and secondly, decried any proposal that would disturb their well-seated food chain. Meanwhile, Republicans, rather than assailing the administrative bollix of Connecticut government and the flattening, lowering and simplification of tax rates, chose to argue minutia with Democrats rather than a severe full-throttle approach that is so desperately needed if Connecticut ever hopes to be the least bit economically attractive in the future. It must not be unmentioned that this was a Republican party that deliberately and inexplicably excluded a competent and formidable gubernatorial candidate proposing the framework of a simplified tax reduction plan, without explanation or reason. This glaring question remains  with an answer of deafening silence.

 

 

But Republican failures are a minority failure in the face of a gross horrible morass. Real facts do not lie.  The super-majority Connecticut Democrat Party lies and pontificates daily with a bureaucratic maze of bureaucracy, fraud, waste and inefficiency. It has created a Connecticut where lies are truth and truth are lies, Connecticut Taxpayer be damned.  The only hope would be a Republican Party that would turn the corner and drastically rework the cancerous mess of Connecticut and its putrid and burdensome tax structure. This has not happened for decades.

 

But even so, kindly tell me why you are voting for Democrats again in November? Possibly, it is because you hate Donald Trump, who had absolutely nothing to do with the economic horrors of Connecticut, but yet, reduced your Federal taxes by 20% and promises more cuts in the future if Congress cooperates. But if that is not acceptable to you,keep hating Trump, watch your insurance bills skyrocket, watch your cities crumble and continue to pay dearly for the colossal horrors continually brought to you under the Democrat reign of perpetual failure.

The Use of Incompetence As A Weapon: The Connecticut Democrat of 2026

 I think I’ve underestimated you, Ned. I don’t know why it took me so long.

You’ve started using your incompetence as a weapon.”

 

(Peter Lowenstein (Ted Danson) to Ned Racine (William Hurt): from “Body Heat” (1981)

 

I never cease to be amazed at the extensive problems that the Connecticut Democrat Party faces each week especially during election season. However, these problems are only seen through reporting by non-state-run media and citizen journalists.

It is amazing to see the mess that the Connecticut Democrat Party is in, and many will wonder why they are a majority party in the state. And like in the movie “Body Heat,” the Connecticut Democrat is incredibly skilled in using incompetence as a weapon.

Here is a list of issues that should be answered by Governor Ned Lamont and his Connecticut Democrat Party but will not be:

1. CONNECTICUT ILLEGAL ALIEN KILLS OHIOAN. (LAMONT: WHAT? ME WORRY?)

 

It was disclosed by Republican Ohio United States Senator Bernie Moreno that Connecticut has granted 60,000 drivers licenses to illegal aliens in an ostensible illegal “Motor Voter” effort, one of which killed 29-year-old Ohioan in a reckless driving accident this past week (https://www.moreno.senate.gov/wp-content/uploads/2026/09/Letter-to-Governor-Lamont.pdf.)  Senator Moreno blasted Governor Lamont in a justifiably scathing letter and demanded an answer as to why illegal aliens are given licenses, among other inferences to Lamont’s vacuous governance skills. Even though there is a fixed demand for answers by Sen. Moreno, there has been no response from Lamont and company. It is quite apparent that human life is not important to the Connecticut Democrat Party given their defense of illegal aliens, abortion full term, gender mutilation, and anti-victim stances in crimes. (https://townhall.com/news/mattvespa/2026/09/01/moreno-to-ct-gov-an-ohioan-was-killed-by-an-illegal-with-a-ct-drivers-license-please-explain-n2682308). But as far as the Democrat world is concerned, the King has spoken, and the obeisant state-run media will not say another peep about it. (Once again, citizen, be damned).

2. NO WATER IN PUERTO RICO? KING NED, THE UNACCOUNTABLE, WILL HELP YOU.

 

However, no water for many in Waterbury? Suck it up, city residents. Democrat Party led Waterbury has massive issues with their water mains breaking constantly while they are supposedly upgrading their systems. Lamont has never commented on this debacle. However he stated, “We are standing by, Lamont  said. “We got the water companies ready to step in when asked to help with infrastructure. The Connecticut National Guard is ready to step up as needed. When asked, we are ready for that.” (https://www.wshu.org/connecticut-news/2026-09-03/ct-aid-puerto-rico-water-crisis). Maybe the Connecticut National Guard could be called into Democrat Party led Hartford and New Haven and attack crime and criminals that impacts the legal citizens who wish to live in those cities without fear of death by walking out of their houses at night. Maybe the four-star DOT crew that mismanaged the Oxford flooding disaster in 2024 can be brought in to send water to both Puerto Rico and Waterbury, as creating an excess of water is something they are good at.

But as is usual, Ned speaks, the state-paid media acts, his dutiful scriveners record, and this will be the last of what anyone has to say about it. For after all, “The Unaccountable” has spoken.

End of story.

3. WHO NEEDS TIRES AND RIMS FOR YOUR CAR, ANYWAY?

 

 

If you wake up to go to work and see that your tires and rims are missing off your car in Democrat Party led Hartford and other surrounding Democrat Party led towns. “It’s been more than once it’s happened and they’ve taken my rear lights off my car before, it happens a lot around here,” Gladstone Hamblin of Hartford said. Hamblin woke up in the morning to find his car on the ground with the wheels missing. Security video showed three men unbolting the tires in a matter of minutes and wheeling them down the street. “It’s a problem for them. It’s a problem for us,” Jose Ventura of No Limit Auto Clinic said. Ventura runs the mechanic shop on Franklin Avenue, and he’s got high-quality security cameras monitoring his shop, while across the street a Mercedes sits up on milk crates, its wheels also missing. (https://www.wtnh.com/news/connecticut/hartford/drivers-dealing-with-rim-and-tire-theft-in-hartford-area/). But as stated above, let us make sure those Connecticut National Guard troops avoid Hartford and are shipped out of state to help others, not Connecticut Taxpayers. Or let us call in the DOT Bridge Engineers to flood the streets of Hartford in an encore performance from 2024, so that these criminals can’t steal tires. Ridiculous, you say? The fact remains that if Lamont made such a proposal his dutiful state-run scriveners would report the same as fact with a straight face.

Again, The Unaccountable Has Spoken. (End of Story).

4. WHERE IS THE CASH? WHO THE HECK KNOWS? AND WHO CARES?

Who cares? Certainly not the Connecticut Democrat Party as a ripping 128-page audit has been released and Hartford Democrat State Senator Doug McCrory used the Blue Hills Civic Association to spend/waste $2.4 million of Connecticut Taxpayers monies that were given freely to organizations and nonprofits with no accountability.  This is a recurring pattern for the Connecticut Democrat Party and the out of control and should be abolished Department of Economic and Community Development. Many wonder why with this rip off of $2.4 million as to why McCrory and his well-provided associates and lady friends are not in jail. Meanwhile, one of the largest beneficiaries of the state grant funding refused to cooperate with the auditors entirely, citing the ongoing FBI investigation. Sonserae Cicero, who is being investigated because of her alleged relationship with McCrory, declined to turn over any records to auditors even though her companies, which operate under different versions of the name SHEBA, received $1.2 million through the Blue Hills Civic Association. “In response to document requests, legal counsel for Ms. Cicero indicated that, based on publicly available information suggesting a potential ongoing federal investigation into related matters, SHEBA would not provide any documents or information absent a legal obligation to do so,” the auditors wrote. Cicero did not respond to a phone call seeking comments for this story. The auditors noted that Cicero signed a contract that granted the state and its auditors access to the company’s records “upon request.” (https://ctmirror.org/2026/09/02/blue-hills-civic-association-audit/). To put a cherry on the sundae, the  should be abolished Connecticut Department of Community Economic Development worked hours to state the following; “Asked if DECD would pursue legal action to force SHEBA to open its books, spokesperson Jim Watson said, “DECD has taken all reasonable steps through available mechanisms to recover and/or hold any funding allocated to entities identified in the audits and will continue to evaluate whether any additional action is merited or likely to lead to the recovery of funds.”  I would understand that this means DECD will do nothing, as it normally does when it comes to accountability of its funds. As an aside, I will also understand that the state Republican contingent will not campaign on abolishing this putrid, incompetent, and wasteful agency despite the wishes of thousands of taxpayers wanting to see something (anything) resembling common sense and economic sanity in this fantastic incompetency land of one-party Democrat rule.

But the Gold Standard of Connecticut governance is blather rather than boldness, and acquiescence in the place of aggressiveness and who the hell cares about ordinary citizens, anyway?

 5. THE BEST $250,000 CONNECTICUT COULD EVER SPEND, IS FOR A REPORT THAT IS WRITTEN BY A FAILED HACK THAT WILL PRODUCE NO RESULTS WHATSOEVER.

 

Looking into the bid contract of Miguel Cardona's for his company, Cardona Solutions, LLC, one sees the great Democrat Party machine at work helping support political hacks, especially if they are down on their luck and need a few bucks.  This contract and Democrat Cardona's career was discussed by me and Tony De Angelo, this past Tuesday on the “94.9 Power Hour” (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zomxmKkPaMA). Connecticut Taxpayers spend enormous amounts of money on job formation, job creation, and job training already with little to no results, as Connecticut is a bottom five in many economic categories. This report will do nothing once again but waste more money in a state that has $100 to $150 billion dollars in short- and long-term debt along with unfunded liabilities. But who cares about any of that when there is always another taxpayer to overtax, and another borrowing and mandate to create in the Land Of Steady Failures?

Here are five areas for aggressive assault in the upcoming election for what has been a docile and obedient state Republican Party to date. All five items are related to an out-of-control, inept, and corrupted Connecticut Democrat Party. It is the record that it is running on and it is a record that it should lose the election on. Add to this mix an incompetent United States Senator Chris Murphy, walking/driving through the state condemning all things Republican and President Trump, while no Republican has been present to dog him continually along the way. Because if there were, Chris would lose what little mind he has defending his own party's corruption and ineptness for the five above-mentioned debacles, and the resulting meltdown would be a sight to behold.

 

Ned Lamont and his malfeasant political cronies should be prosecuted for their actions, and not be reelected. Meanwhile, the surviving Republicans in this state should dog Democrats every day fighting and dogging Democrats tooth and nail about these sickening failures. For Connecticut Taxpayers have had enough of Democrat fraud, incompetence, and callous indifference to the citizens of Connecticut and are waiting for someone (anyone) to finally turn the corner in putting an end to this sordid and sick saga.

Walk Softly, Connecticut! Democrat Crime Is Here To Stay

 In the past week that was, there were a series of raids performed by National Immigration Control and Enforcement (“ICE”) with the object of removing illegal aliens from the once-proud working city of Danbury, CT. The political responses across the aisle were so predictable, you could set your watch to them.

“These reports of abusive tactics, excessive use of force, detention of US citizens and possible harm to individuals who were taken into custody and thrown into unmarked vans by masked agents, and then confined in inhumane conditions are deeply troubling, and the reason that I have asked for an investigation,” (Senator Richard Blumenthal-Democrat).

“I don't like the idea that we don't have an immigration system that works, but I will not sit here and blame ICE agents who are not elected officials, who have no say in that process and are simply out doing the job that they're directed to do, enforcing the laws that Congress has enacted,” State Rep. Greg Howard (R-Stonington) said.

 

Once again, Democrats are investigating law enforcement tactics while positioning criminals as victims — a predictable development,” they wrote. “Rather than undermining the men and women who enforce our laws, [Blumenthal] should step away from the cameras and focus on solutions to the illegal immigration crisis he and his Democratic colleagues in Washington not only ignored but allowed to worsen throughout the Biden presidency.”( State House Republican Leader Vincent Candelora).

https://www.nbcconnecticut.com/news/local/blumenthal-investigation-abusive-unlawful-ice-tactics/3630482/

 

Notwithstanding the predictability of the above prepared responses, I struggle with a critical premise across all of them. Each side of the aisle believes that there is a “solution needed to the illegal immigration crisis.” However, what you, I, and every sane and right-thinking and taxpaying citizen in the State of Connecticut saw was the perfect and almost pure operation of Federal law in action: Illegal persons were in the country and were strongly and efficiently removed by the powers of Federal enforcement to make communities safe and free for all. Even though the fault of this massive government failure rests at the feet of Democrats, I struggle with what is so difficult for all sides of the political world to understand here?

 

Let us take a bit of time to tell everyone how this is really designed to work.

 

We can begin with this question: What is Federal Law? There is clear confusion in Connecticut and especially with the Connecticut Democrat Party as to what Federal law is. Federal laws are rules that apply throughout the United States-these are laws that are written by our Federal Government and apply in every state, like it or not. The United States Constitution is the supreme law of the land and unbelievably no other state law or regulation can conflict with it. Especially, hastily passed state laws such as the (God-Forsaken) “Trust Act” have no power whatsoever over what the Federal government can do with respect to ICE operations. We remain in this mess because immigration laws were broken and not enforced by the Biden Administration from 2021 to 2024 and have now led us to actually enforcing Federal laws on immigration.

Even though there is plenty of political blame to go around in this situation, all of us in Connecticut have become used to the stale and incompetent United States Senators Richard Blumenthal and Chris Murphy yelling from their bully socialist pulpit, in front of the obedient and starry-eyed state run media, as they wail against all law enforcement officials that are trying to do their jobs.   Not one word was mentioned from either Senator about the failed Biden Administration unleashing an  onslaught of illegal people/criminals/drug traffickers/and murderers that were welcomed in open arms by the sick people who ran the corrupted Biden Administration. This was an Administration with a figurehead that was sick, feeble, incontinent, and mentally incompetent that was dressed up to supposedly be the President of the United States. Our fools, better known as US Senators encouraged the lawlessness and criminal behaviors of these freeloaders and never once, for the good of the United States of America, demanded the removal of this sick and feeble man on grounds of competency and general principle.

They simply, do not care about you or your welfare.

 But as we fast-forward to today, maybe in Connecticut someone, (anyone), could get "outraged" at Ned Lamont, William Tong or insert Democrat politician name here______ for their remarks about the recent legal law enforcement/ICE operation in Danbury, CT this week to rid the state of illegal immigrants who are in the state. Here are some of their remarks; ...Lamont said his office is coordinating with groups like DUFI (“Danbury Unites for Immigrants”) to help ensure community members can access legal resources and other help. He also had a message for the Trump administration: “At a convening of governors earlier this year, after the tragic results of ICE’s presence in Minneapolis, President Trump told us he would not be sending ICE into cities that did not ask for the help,” Lamont said in a statement. “Let me be clear: Connecticut does not want, nor do we need, the type of presence ICE has had in our state this week.” (https://www.ctpublic.org/news/2026-08-26/ct-officials-pledge-support-immigrant-advocates-danbury-ice-detainments). My question to this failed governor is, if ICE were not needed in the once proud and working city of Danbury, CT, why are there so many “bad hombres” and otherwise illegal people needing to be removed?

Many are amazed at the intensity and enthusiasm that the Connecticut Democrat Party places in defending criminals and crimes in the state. Many are amazed at the love that the Connecticut Democrat Party has for breaking the rules of law and defending criminals while condemning the innocent and victims of crimes. From the Bridgeport Voter Fraud that continues there daily and with impunity to the non-profit scandals of elected officials, or the massive nightly car thefts to the massive costs of illegal immigrants for Connecticut Taxpayers, crime is the norm in the state. This is the record that Ned Lamont and his Connecticut Democrat Party are running for re-election on. This is the record that they are proud to offer those who live their lives by the rule of law and pay one of the highest rates of taxation in the country- a criminal infested sewer of social and economic failure for all to see. And regardless, Ned Lamont is an odds-on favorite (or failure) to preside over Connecticut over four more years and further drive this once great state into irreparable damage and chaos.

 

Mind us all, the responsibility for this grievous failure of governance is the result of failed and wretched one-party rule over decades. However, to be clear and fair, increasing right thinking Connecticut citizens are expecting a strong Republican pushback towards this poisonous Democrat attitude and frankly are seeing none of that. My friend and colleague Tony De Angelo covered the whereabouts of Governor Candidate Ryan Fazio during this most critical of times in the 8/27 “THIRTY WITH TONY”, and we found him in a shopping center in Westbrook, not challenging any of his “Democratic colleagues” to account for this horrific mess. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zf1lhFgYBLU In this episode, Tony also asks how a sitting Governor can continually disavow Federal law without legal and criminal consequences, which is a question that I have heard no elected official of any sort, ever ask.

My advice for those who remain in Connecticut is simple-walk softly and have eyes behind your head. Crime and criminals are the new norm for the state. The Connecticut Democrat Party has morphed into a sickening and vile structure of both mental and physical abuse of those brave citizens who want to live an orderly life following the rules of law and the state, as Republicans, short in the intestinal fortitude department, search for a “solution” that is here, working, and present. Crime pays for the Connecticut Democrat Party, as voter fraud, illegal citizen fraud and theft are abundant for the taking with no repercussions whatsoever. Federal law is the rule of the land except to those who hate our country like those lawless carpetbaggers better known as Ned Lamont and his Connecticut Democrat Party.

The Myriad Permutations of Socialism. Democrats in 2026

I have followed with interest the continuing drama of Conservative Talk Show Host (and friend to us all) Lee Elci in his bid for the Connecticut State Senate Seat of the 20th District against Democrat incumbent Martha (“Wire Cutter”) Marx.

As was quite predictable to me, once Elci announced his candidacy, Marx pressed her right to the statutory benefits of “equal time,” in other words, being allowed to broadcast to the 94.9 News and Stimulating Talk audience that follows Elci at comparable times of the day. As the station works out the details of the demand, Marx was bold and glib to state her intentions to “The Day” of New London. https://theday.com/news/916512/democrat-marx-considers-sharing-airwaves-with-conservative-talk-show-hosts/

As stated in the article: “Marx said she has no shortage of topics she would address if she goes on air — tenant rights, LGBTQ issues, health care, immigration — many of them will come with a view from the left and will be a contrast to the themes, advertisements, and callers on Elci’s show.

“I don’t know how many listeners Lee Elci has, and I don’t know that his listeners would care about hearing what I’m talking about,” Marx said. “I would be able to elevate and give a voice to so many of the causes that are so important to me.


“The first day, I might have representatives from Planned Parenthood, OutCT and Moms Demand Action,” Marx said. “I would have my Democratic colleagues and candidates on, and listeners would be able to hear their real voices instead of the lies they usually hear on that station,” Marx said.”

While being a First Amendment absolutist and a strong believer in the law of equal time, I beg to differ with Senator Marx in that perhaps not everything spoken on station 94.9 is a lie. For example, Senator Marx inexplicably cut wires under her legislative seat in 2024 causing multiple thousands of dollars in damage and neither political party called for censure, expulsion, or even an investigation. https://ctexaminer.com/2024/08/08/state-senator-cuts-voting-box-wires-damages-could-reach-15k-sources-say/ . However, my friend and colleague Tony De Angelo did, only to be rebuffed by the ostensibly cowardly Capitol Police. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wUehKZTrxpA&t=2s However Tony is not bothered, as he will sure to ask Martha as to her reasons for doing what she did with the wires when the floor is hers, and 200,000 ears will listen for the answer.


Some may find all the foregoing entertaining. Others may find it vengeful. But my reasons of recounting the foregoing are only for the purposes of showing the First Amendment of the United States Constitution at work and showing that Freedom of Speech is a blessing to us all and is indeed a two-way street, much to the chagrin and uncomfortableness awaiting Martha Marx in the future.

But even that premise pales in comparison to the most critical issue: Because we live in a free society where all can throw stones and duck stones thrown at them, both Marx and Elci have the right to say whatever they wish within the limits of actual malice and threat. Marx may now have difficulty, fear, and trembling coming to grips with that reality, which may be why her and her ilk run to the marvelous umbrella of Socialism as the elixir that heals all ills. What these misguided souls do not comprehend is that in Socialism and Marxism one’s right to dissent is often met with ostracization, imprisonment, beatings and yes, even death.

You see in Socialism, Marx thinks she is safe being on the side of the oppressor, for now. But oh, how little does she really understand?

 Imagine being tortured to death because you were forced to believe the lies your government was claiming and disagreed with them. Imagine you were a firm believer in Freedom-Freedom of thought, economic and personal freedom, freedom to live your life without governmental control.

Imagine reading about and believing that the Holocaust existed and that over eleven million were tortured to death by a variety of means especially those of Jewish faith and of Polish ancestry.

Imagine reading about and believing that the around twelve million died during the peaceful Russian Revolution of Communism and Marxism.

Imagine reading about and believing that in Cuba, the Castro Brothers were responsible for over 12,000 deaths by various means including firing squads and their murder of Oswaldo Payá.

Look him up if you dare.

Imagine reading about and believing that in China under Mao Zedong's rule that 30 to 45 million died under his tortures and starvation.

Imagine reading about and believing that in North Korea since 1948 over ten million have died from torture and or starvation.

Imagine reading about and believing that in Cambodia, Pol Pot killed over two million of its own citizens through a variety of means. 

Yet these bothersome facts are ignored. Forgotten by enthusiastic and brainwashed Democrat Socialists of America and their paid protestors continually forgetting the 100 million people who have been murdered in one way or another over past 100 years by Socialist/Communist regimes in our world.  Somehow, in 2026 too many young people have no idea of the destruction brought about by communist regimes throughout our world history. I personally will never forget my ancestors in Poland were murdered in cold blood by both the Germans and Russians during World War II and many years afterwards. As far as they have been told, Socialism is the land of Milk and Honey and they will all be standing at the end of a plenteous conveyor belt amply supplied by government and the working taxpayers.

Thus in 2026, I am forced to write this column in support of freedom and our free United States of America with the Marx-Elci race as a perfect example of what all of this means. An America that we are somehow led to believe that freedom is bad because of irrational, incomprehensible, and illogical arguments by a propaganda machine of liberal wealthy elitists (or brainless “useful idiots” like Marx). One must wonder why our political system is being hijacked by these domestic terrorists better known as liberal Democrats who have intense hatred of President Trump and no coherent or conclusive solutions to any critical issue.

Facts do not lie. Millions of innocent people have died because of Socialism and Communism and continue to die today. It is nothing new. One can twist and distort the evils of Socialism and Communism to suit their hatred of our country and our free way of life. The new age Democrat Socialists of America are just as bad as their ancestors, arguably worse in that they do not know the world of horror upon which they tread.  We do not need this kind of evil being spread in our country and in our upcoming election. The atrocities of Socialism and Communism are on full display today with the Democrat Party and their lies. The great silent majority has had enough of their wokeness, pomposity, and waste of human life.

 

Therefore, in closing, does Senator Marx understand or comprehend any of this? My guess is no. However, she would be made to understand quite readily when a much  more dastardly and purposed far leftist wishes to take her to far more treacherous places that even she could tolerate. By then, the usefulness of her idiocy will have expired and she will “get the bullet” just like multiple thousands before her. Because the only way one like Marx can ever get to address our views and redress our grievances in a society free allowing life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness through the resources God has provided and the elimination of government micromanagement.

Whatever goes around, comes around.  If only these delusional Democrats understood that before it becomes too late.

August 11, 2026. The Primary To Nowhere

 Rumor had it that King Ned Lamont the Unaccountable, the 89th Governor of the once-great state of Connecticut, participated in a primary election that recently damaged the singularly-uninspiring Democrat Socialist/Communist Josh Elliott by beating him with brute force in the August 11 Democrat Primary. As literally every state union, state-supported adjunct, corrupted NGO, and bought-off church and community group of color was ready to do their trained-dog act to remain on the food chain, the dull Mr. Elliott had no chance, and conceded his loss like a misbehaving puppy asking to be placed in his master’s good graces. For such an Academy Award winning performance, I am sure Mr. Elliott will be rewarded with a state-paid nonjob in the extremely near future just to show us all how balanced and inclusive The Unaccountable is to all persons and viewpoints, your tax dollars, be damned.

 

But how is any of this surprising? Ned desperately needs his job for family business and will continue to throw around your taxpayer money to ensure that the Lamont's Hedge Fund Cash Machine is safe until the end of his term  or another four years of ripping off Connecticut Taxpayers. He must now face a form of reality with a young Republican candidate running against him with his failed economic policies that have placed Connecticut last in many economic categories and first in the highest taxes in the country. But who cares if you subsist or  do quite well on the state dollar? And who pays attention to that. especially Connecticut's obedient state-run media and the politically connected of the Connecticut Democrat Party as the greatest offenders of public decency?

And why worry? Why even bother to have an election? Polls from everywhere and anywhere the stoic media has been already declaring Lamont the victor! And why not? Just continue to hand free taxpayers monies to the state-run media to keep them "viable", pay for unlimited abortions, parrot anti-ICE rhetoric, ignore high electric rates, high fuel oil prices and most importantly continue with an unlimited source of Connecticut Taxpayer funded revenue for the Oak HC/FT hedge fund profits funneled through state funded nonprofits and shady outfits such as the boiler-room “Connecticut Innovations.” 

Doesn't this sound familiar? Haven't we seen this for eight long years? Why does the smarmy cloak of legitimacy from both sides of the aisle continue towards Ned Lamont with no complaint about any of this?

But this is a familiar scenario, as truth and reality are not known to Ned Lamont and his Connecticut Democrat Party. The lies they spew are parroted as truth by the state-run media and Connecticut Taxpayers are always shortchanged. One genuine issue that does not get addressed is voter fraud which many know is rampant in state elections, especially in Bridgeport. Just recently,  more absentee ballot fraud hit Crime Free Democrat Bridgeport with allegations of  former state Sen. Dennis Bradley with voter intimidation and absentee ballot misconduct, but who is actually counting? (https://www.wtnh.com/news/connecticut/fairfield/bridgeport-police-investigating-allegations-of-absentee-ballot-misconduct-against-former-state-sen-dennis-bradley/). Just another nodding performance by a Democrat Party appointed judge and the usual brushing aside of voter fraud by the Democrats. A young man named Jonathan De Barros has simple questions about his Congressional primary defeat that are  clear but remain unanswered and avoided. Given the number of incidents, it is hard not to conclude that voter fraud in Democrat Connecticut has influenced and effected both local and state elections especially in crime riddled and corrupted Bridgeport. But again, who cares, since it somehow it is never prosecuted nor challenged except by a few brave voters who believe in integrity of our scared election process. The fact remains that your vote does count unbelievably and must count, except obviously in Bridgeport, where the system does not care what you think.

But there is a sanity test here. Why would Lamont and his Connecticut Democrat Party be winning in the polls supposedly, given the horrific economic conditions in Connecticut and the extreme hatred shown for him on social media and uncontrolled environments? His reign has given us a state that has massive debt and unfunded liabilities along with high local and state taxes, massive state spending for state employee wages, benefits, and pensions, along with a poor infrastructure, rampant crime, and a horrific business climate? Why would anyone continue to vote for this deficient social and economic mess? And now, Lamont must contend with the failed lies of the new and improved Democrat Socialists that have taken over most of the failed aspects of this horrific morass called the Democrat party and appease these socialists at every turn since he must remain in office at all costs, especially when you are paying the costs.

But what really happened in this primary? Nothing. Nothing at all. Nothing has happened to want to make any sane person, who believes in Democracy and Capitalism to want to vote for these failures called successes in 2026. The Democrat Party continues to fail Connecticut and its big cities daily, and will bribe, cajole, and throw your money to remain exactly where they are. There are massive drug abuse problems, murders on the streets of formerly safe city areas, massive crime, massive social problems, and massive corruption everywhere you look in the state. The Democrat Party owns these issues and refuses to accept blame nor offer any solutions to them. It is just more, more of the same failed rhetoric that is spewed from top to bottom.

Yes, Ned Lamont won on Tuesday. And he is an odds-on favorite to remain exactly where he is for at least another four years. The only thing that would ever change that is a consistent and super-charged effort to drive him, his ilk, his incompetence, his spouse, and his cronies from power. But to do so would take boldness, courage, and vision which is tough to come by from a large supplicant and questionable voter base and a comfortable opposition party that does not blister and batter this reprehensible conduct daily and embrace viewpoints contrary to its  failed modus operandi.

 Elections 2026. It is the Last Chance Saloon for Connecticut. I pray to God people are seeing this for what it really, is and act accordingly.
