The Democrat Party. Where Sins Are Continually Forgiven

 Upon seeing repeated crime, death, and destruction in the Nation’s Capital, President Donald Trump finally decided that he had seen enough. On August 11, 2025, federalized law enforcement in Washington, D.C began by the President invoking Section 740 of the “Home Rule Act”. This placed the D.C. Metropolitan Police Department and dysfunctional government under federal authority for up to 30 days due to a declared crime emergency. Mr. Trump deployed 800 D.C. National Guard troops and about five hundred federal officers from agencies like the FBI and ATF to patrol the city to address violent crime and protect federal assets. President Trump argued this bold move was necessary to combat urban crime and disorder.

 

In response to President Trump's federalization of Washington, D.C.'s various lunatic police protests erupted across the city, with unhinged activists from D.C., Maryland, and Virginia decrying the move as an overreach of federal power and a threat to local autonomy. Demonstrators, including groups like the "D.C. Alliance Against Racist and Political Repression", gathered at key locations like the 14th Street NW corridor and near the White House, chanting slogans such as "Go home, fascists" and "Get off our streets," and urged drivers to avoid federal checkpoints. Deluded critics, including local officials and civil rights groups, argued the intervention was unnecessary given declining crime rates, raising concerns about civil liberties and the criminalization of marginalized communities.(https://x.com/washingtonpost/status/1955411490531315721)[](https://thehill.com/homenews/state-watch/5451674-dc-residents-heckling-donald-trump-takeover/)[](https://www.wusa9.com/article/news/local/protests/dc-protest-federal-police-trump-administration/65-bc0556c1-9cbf-4445-8c53-17eacf46b413). In fact, one entitled and deranged attorney from the Department of Justice flung a Subway footlong sandwich at an ICE agent and subsequently lost his job and was charged as a criminal. 

It is baffling to any sane person as to why anyone would commit a felony and/or lose his job to protest being delivered from a war zone.

Welcome in to another day and another thrashing of President Trump by someone in the Democrat Party or its attendant media politburo. Day in and day out, President Trump is never left alone to govern the country. He is always attacked in some way, shape or form since he took office in 2017. The Democrat Party has spent a mere eight years plus in a failed attempt to discredit President Trump, and if you have been following, it has not succeeded since he won the election in 2024. President Trump to many is acting as a super-human. He has fended off the Russian hoax spread by the Democrats along with numerous lawsuits brought by Socialist Attorney Generals and an assassination attempt. But Donald Trump is vilified by doing something different that is shaking up our stoic and dysfunctional political system and government. Mind us all, This is a political system and government that many feel no longer works and represents the people who supposedly elected them.

One could also look at the positive things that President Trump has done in his first days of his second term. He has addressed the devastating illegal immigrant crisis created by the Biden Administration. He is doing his best to make America energy independent again, away from the irrational and incompetent state officials who are dogging and obstructing him at every turn. He is doing his best to create both jobs and investment in the economy to stimulate economic growth. He has lowered taxes by the "One Big Beautiful Bill Act" by which Connecticut benefits greatly. ( (https://taxfoundation.org/data/all/federal/obbba-average-tax-cuts-impact-map/) . He is torching a bloated Federal government.   He is addressing Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion, and the cancerous brainwashing of higher education. He has created a revolution to counter the unchecked and unwarranted Democrat Party Socialism that has been force fed to us for years. And he is winning the fight and exciting people by the day, contrary to what the state-run media wants us to believe.



Yet the Democrat Party still feels it does no wrong while President Trump can do no right. The Democrat Party is mad at President Trump. The Democrat Party likes to yell, swear and hurl insults at all things Trump. Even though Democrats are not in power except for incompetent and irrational states such as Connecticut, Democrats continue to try to rule the country with their deceptions and lies, (such as the unchecked Russian hoax that should be prosecuted to the full extent of the law).

In Connecticut, the Connecticut Democrat Party is dealing with several massive ethical, integrity, and personal character issues. Connecticut U.S. Senator Chris Murphy continues to become more embarrassing and unhinged every day about President Trump with several of his recent statements. For example, the third-term senator said in a recent interview that Trump “doesn’t give a fuck what we write” into spending legislation...“Every single day, there’s new evidence that our democracy is falling, and you’ve got to take stands. You have to take fights,” Murphy explained. “I just worry — every time that we go along with these appropriations bills, we’re putting a bipartisan veneer of endorsement on an illegal process that’s ultimately part of his campaign to destroy our democracy.” (https://www.politico.com/news/2025/08/13/chris-murphy-senate-funding-boycott-trump-protest-00505880). Can Senator Murphy explain to Connecticut Taxpayers in what ways is President Trump destroying our democracy? By rooting out corruption, political payoffs and crime? Can Senator Murphy explain to Connecticut Taxpayers how Democracy was not destroyed by having an incoherent, feeble, and ostensibly incontinent Democrat President Biden while his non-elected autopen handlers ran America into the ground for four years? Can Senator Murphy articulate the benefits of the Socialist policies of unchecked illegal immigration? Can Senator Murphy explain those same policies to legal United States Citizens families and loved ones who were murdered by some of the illegal immigrant cartels and individuals that were let in by the Democrat Biden Administration? Maybe Senator Murphy should be accountable for his statements by impeachment actions against him? He is a much clearer threat to our Democracy than President Trump. And it is a continuing wonder as to why the Connecticut Media (and even the state Republican Party) never (ever) in hammering him daily in the needed effort of forcing him to finally (and mercifully), resign.

But one continually wonders if having a criminal proclivity is a requirement of The Connecticut State Democrat Party for legislative service. Since Connecticut Democrats have permanent absolution for their sins within state lines, we see felon/shoplifter four-term Democrat State Representative Raghib Allie-Brennan still is holding his position in the state even he though apparently was caught shoplifting. Naturally, being a Democrat, he will find a way for his arrest to go away and retain his state taxpayer funded benefits and future pension accompanied by the usual state-run media blather of “he has turned the page,” or the like. Since his sins will be forgiven, he can run for United States Senator one day as a "victor". Or how about his fellow Democrats Robin Comey, AundrĂ© Baumgartner, Geoff Luxenberg, Kevin Ryan, and Dennis Bradley who have faced criminal charges ranging from driving under the influence (DUI), to campaign finance fraud? But none of this matters. Anyone (including myself) raising these issues is branded as cruel, insensitive, or racist, (where applicable).

And the beat goes on. The Connecticut State Democrat Party now sees an incredible scandal developing with its (should-be-abolished) Department of Economic and Community Development and the “Minority Business Initiative” that has involved Democrat State Senator Douglas McCrory. Substantial amounts of missing money are involved coupled with vast amounts of “expenses and salaries” hiding in plain sight as paid from politically funded nonprofits that have escaped any legislative or bureaucratic oversight or fiscal control. (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X6lcguJsekU ). Federal Grand Jury subpoenas have been issued that tie prominent Democrat State Senator Douglas McCrory and consultant Sonserae Cicero-Hamlin (whom he apparently lives with). "McCrory sat on the advisory board during a years-long period when it was considering millions of dollars of grants or loans that went to a Cicero-Hamlin business" (https://www.msn.com/en-us/money/other/hartford-nonprofit-grand-jury-probes-state-senator-s-personal-relationship-with-grant-recipient/ar-AA1K2EvD?ocid=BingNewsVerp&cvid=4383a6a98ca4438cf3fd72dda846a09c&ei=25&apiversion=v2&noservercache=1&domshim=1&renderwebcomponents=1&wcseo=1&batchservertelemetry=1&noservertelemetry=1). As my friend and colleague Tony De Angelo said this past week, it is a positive development that Federal authorities are doing the job of oversight that Connecticut has failed to do for many years. 

Indeed.

But the Democrat apple never rolls far from the rotten tree. Of course we can't forget Governor King Ned Lamont the Unaccountable and his dealings and financial interests with Sema-4, Digital Currency Group and its affiliates, ADVANCECT, 4-CT, Boston Consulting Group, UNITE US, Mt. Sinai Genomics, “The Horsebarn Hill Investment Fund”, Tidal River Fund, McKinsey, GeneDX, and the Lamont-based Cayman Islands shell companies.  Forget all of that because the Connecticut State Democrat Party, is doing no wrong with its lack of transparency with these companies and funding. And if you continue to mention this, you are either a conspiracy theorist, insensitive, or a broken record. For Connecticut to ever change for the better, this posture can be condoned no longer.

In conclusion, it is a lie that the Democrat Party can do no wrong and President Trump can do no right. These examples presented show a much different viewpoint of the damage and wrong that the Democrat Party has done to our society, state, and country. It is time move our country forward minus an incoherent, Socialist Democrat Party and its enablers. May God protect the good leaders such as President Trump so they may correct the injustices and rape of our society by the idiotic leaders of the failed Democrat Party.

Connecticut: The State of Legislative Criminal Forgiveness

 Connecticut's State Legislature has been a sad mess for years. 

The Connecticut State Legislature has seen multiple legislators, including (but not limited to) Robin Comey, Aundré Baumgartner, Geoff Luxenberg, Kevin Ryan, and Dennis Bradley face criminal charges ranging from driving under the influence (DUI) to campaign finance fraud.

Below is just a partial list of those that have offended the public trust in committing criminal acts.

Robin Comey: Arrested for DUI in March 2023 after a car crash near the Capitol, with blood alcohol levels nearly twice the legal limit, and removed from committee assignments. 
An earlier incident showed Ms. Comey making laws…while drunk.

Aundré Baumgartner: Arrested for DUI in March 2025 with blood alcohol levels over twice the legal limit, suspended from leadership roles, and entered a program for first-time offenders.

Geoff Luxenberg: Arrested for DUI in November 2023, removed from committees, and sought personal counseling.

Kevin Ryan: Had multiple DUI arrests, including a notable third in 2001 leading to 120 days in prison, yet retained office and won subsequent elections.

Dennis Bradley: Indicted in May 2021 on federal charges for defrauding the campaign finance system, with the case ongoing as of June 2024.

Every one of these people has returned to legislative service with the usual cries of “I am sorry” and “Let’s Move On.” However, in this past week we had another young lawmaker continuing in the great tradition giving yet another example of its disregard for laws of the land. The example is this week's debacle of Legislative Miscreantness is Democrat State Representative Raghib Allie-Brennan, a four-term lawmaker from Connecticut. 

Raghib was arrested Monday June 22, 2025 for allegedly failing to scan two items at a Target store in Bethel. He was arrested after police reviewed security video showing him attempting to leave the store with $26.69 in unpaid merchandise.
In reading Raghib’s biography one may be impressed in his qualifications as a young Democrat. For example, "Since 2018, Raghib has been at the forefront of shaping energy policy, pushing for renewable investments, stronger oversight of utilities, and greater protections for consumers."  

Connecticut Taxpayers may wonder if those greater protections for consumers include being able to freely shoplift goods for stores in Crime Free Democrat Connecticut. 

It adds; "Currently, he serves on the Energy and Technology, General Law, and Insurance and Real Estate Committees. A proud member of the legislature’s Moderate Caucus, Raghib has championed protections for domestic violence survivors, pushed back on overdevelopment, and advocated for Connecticut’s small businesses." 

Connecticut Taxpayers may wonder if he advocates to shoplifting at the few remaining Connecticut small businesses? 

Or how he feels about the obscene HB 5002 as far as over-development is concerned? 

In his standard statement of repentance after being caught shoplifting by hand carrying items out of the store, he stated that he remained committed to serving his community with “transparency and integrity". 

Connecticut Taxpayers may wonder if such transparency includes availing oneself of five-fingered discounts by using one’s fingers instead of shopping bags. 

Lastly in his bio is the inevitable virtuous statement of sexual preference;” An openly gay legislator, Raghib is a strong advocate for LGBTQ+ rights and representation. He continues to reside in Bethel, where he remains deeply connected to the community he serves." 

Connecticut Taxpayers may wonder what does this have to do with anything with respect to governance or policy?

The story of his shoplifting is interesting as the New York Post reported more information on his alleged theft. In their article (https://nypost.com/2025/06/25/us-news/democrat-ct-lawmaker-busted-for-shoplifting-at-target-self-checkout-line-then-uses-ailing-granny-as-an-excuse/), we find out that; "A Democratic state representative from Connecticut busted for shoplifting after failing to scan items at a Target self-checkout offered a litany of excuses, including that he was “in a rush to bring items to my grandmother in the hospital.” State Rep. Raghib Allie-Brennan was arrested Monday night at a Target store in Bethel, about 60 miles southwest of Hartford, after authorities reviewed security footage allegedly showing he neglected to scan two of his items, totaling $26.69 in value. He was detained by loss prevention personnel, who later told cops they recognized the four-term lawmaker from “previous unreported larcenies,”  

Connecticut Taxpayers may wonder how many times has the Democrat State Representative stolen from Target and other stores in the area?

Raghib posted the following statement on his Facebook page (https://www.facebook.com/raghibct/) that “During a recent visit to the Bethel Target, two items in my armload of others were not scanned. I was in a rush to bring items to my grandmother in the hospital, the store didn’t have bags, and I was juggling multiple purchases”  It is interesting to note that Democrat State Representative Raghib Allie-Brennan voted for House Bill #7424 which outlaws evil plastic bags as noted from the bill; “On and after July 1, 2021, no owner or operator of a store shall provide or sell a single-use checkout bag to a customer.” What an irony for Raghib! No bags to use in the store! Democrat Socialism continually reaches its finest moments in Crime-Free Democrat Connecticut.

Based upon well-established past precedent, we know that the esteemed Democrat State Representative will blame everyone but himself, get a slap on the wrist and be able to keep his position, benefits and pension as a State Representative as long as he wants. His colleagues will view this and say to themselves “if I screw up, the same soft-landing will be waiting for me as I am entitled.”  There is no deterrent for being a criminal if you are a Democrat Connecticut state legislator. If you or I did this we would be prosecuted to the full extent of the law. Can you imagine if a Republican State Representative did this? Or the Governor? (No, scratch that. Why would one bother with guppies when one can bag whales?)   

But this is Crime Free Democrat Connecticut. But a better term would be “The Legislative Criminal Forgiveness State.” But alas, that type of forgiveness applies only to a very small subset of the population.
