The “New Way Forward?” It Is To Repeat All The Economic Mistakes By Government Of The Past Four Years
Our economic system can also be viewed in respect to creating a “ripple effect” in our economy that helps to create economic growth and prosperity as I discussed with my friend and colleague Tony De Angelo sub-hosting on 94.9’s “Lee Elci Show” this past Thursday For example, you wish to buy a new car to replace your old one. You sell your old car to a person who is looking for a vehicle that is less expensive than a new car and will only cost him the $7,500 you are asking for it. He pays you with a bank check that you deposit in your checking account. The first economic impact of this transaction is fulfilled with you selling your used vehicle at a price that you have deemed to be fair for its value and the person you sold it to is satisfied with that price and with the utility or satisfaction he or she received in buying it. You, in turn, withdraw the $7,500 from your account and place a down payment on a new car that suits your needs, costing you $40,000 in its new condition. Therefore, a ripple effect starts with the car dealership earning a profit on the sale of the car and the salesperson earning income and or a commission by selling the car providing money to pay his bills for that month. When you return the car back to the dealership for service you help employ mechanics that earn an income from servicing your vehicle along with the service technician who waits on you, writes up, and coordinates the service itself. Parts from manufacturers are used in your vehicle that help create economic profit when they are sold to the dealer and retailed to you. Thus, we see economic activity via the functions of a ripple effect along with supply and demand balances or equilibrium taking place in the marketplace with you and your vehicle. Income and profits occur that help fuel economic growth. You receive utility in your new car and now feeling secure in traveling, you consider taking your family on a vacation many miles away.
It is my bet that only a slim minority of any politicians understand even this simple economic example above, but to the matter at hand, Does Kamala Harris understand economics? Would she as a potential POTUS be able to understand this simple example I just gave? I really must wonder in review of her "new" 82 page "New Way Forward" economic plan that she has just revealed. To me, her plan is warmed-over Bidenomics on steroids and gives the strong appearance of written by biased students using AI. (https://(kamalaharris.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/09/Policy_Book_Economic-Opportunity.pdf). As someone who has studied and taught economics for many years, I am frankly scared by this document as it is the usual stale Democrat Party economic gibberish that continues to destroy our economy especially those who work for a living, only this time using more spending.
The Harris "New Way Forward" economic plan includes many of the failed economic policies utilized during the tenure of her Vice Presidency, assuming she understood any of them in the least. To describe her 82 pages in more simplistic terms the “plan” consists of the usual, new and higher taxes, new and higher transfer payments, taxes on unrealized capital gains, more green energy subsidies, price and rent controls, less coverage with higher premiums under Obamacare, more student loan forgiveness, and much more in the way of a free-money candy-land. Reading the report is confusing to me. For example, from Page 9 a Yale economist using estimates from the Budget Lab at Yale and the Committee for a Responsible Federal Budget, emphasize Harris’s plan is more fiscally responsible. They note: “Any fair fiscal comparison shows this election is not a close call. If the deficit is your top issue, Harris is the clear choice End note #9 cites Sarin, Natasha. “How would Trump and Harris affect U.S. debt? The difference is huge.” The Washington Post. September 13, 2024. https://www.washingtonpost.com/opin-ions/2024/09/13/harris-trump-deficit-debt. To this pap/ claptrap, my question is didn't the National debt and budget deficit grow to record amounts under the Harris Vice Presidency? Is that not factual? So how is it possible that the same basic economic policies with all the entitlement programs, giveaways, no cost loans, tax credits, failed green energy programs and loan forgiveness do not dramatically increase the National Debt to even higher proportions? Could this mysterious unnamed "Yale economist" explain this to the American Taxpayer? Or is he or she comfortable in the cushy existence of being paid by a huge endowment making prognostications without suffering any negative effects from the same?
The statements become even more unsupported and bizarre: "Unlike Trump, Vice President Harris and Governor Walz will protect and strengthen Social Security and Medicare. They will shore up Social Security and Medicare so that these essential programs will stay solvent in the long run by making corporations and the wealthiest Americans pay their fair share in taxes." (Page 69). Does Harris mean that Corporate and wealthy individual Democrat Party political donors will be singled out to pay these higher taxes to pay for Social Security and Medicare? Or will they be able to continue to lobby for their tax exemptions and breaks as they have been for many years? Does this mean Nancy Pelosi will disclose her tax statements to show either how little (likely) or how much (unlikely) she pays in federal taxes? Magically under the Harris Vice Presidency of the past four years, she was not able to shore up Social Security and Medicare but again it is somehow President Trump's fault for this crisis that under her Vice Presidency grew unabated and exacerbated. Give us all a break.
In reading this train-wreck of a manifesto, I have set my hourglass to wonder how long it will be before some of the Connecticut local politicians, understanding nothing at all about economic principles, tout this plan as the solution. My only question is who will this bold stalwart be? Will it be Senate Majority Leader Bob Duff, who will make a tweet out of it to show his hatred for President Trump? Will it be ”Businessman Governor” King Ned Lamont The Unaccountable, who during his watch has seen more business leave the state or close than in any time in state history? Or will it be Comptroller Sean Scanlon, who showed his knowledge of sound fiscal policy and present value mathematics by dividing the debt into a small currently due portion, deferring the balance as it accrued even greater interest cost, and then he was touted by the state-run media and the “bipartisan” legislature as “The Man That Solved The State Deficit.” As I often say, the Connecticut Apple rests on the trunk of the poisoned National tree when it comes to matters of economics.
This 82 page "New Way Forward" thesis/AI/Chat GPT, drool and muck, is a Utopian lie of more socialism and economic restriction for our country and is the norm for the Democrat Party platforms. Voters need to understand that Kamala Harris has been the Vice President for the past four years covering for the incompetent and mentally senile Joe Biden and they are responsible for the runaway inflation and runaway increases in the National Debt, not President Trump. The 82 page "New Way Forward" is more like the "Old Way Backwards Warmed Over" and contains little if anything "new" economically to move "forward". It would be refreshing to see some "new" economic thought such as a plan to balance the yearly budget, a plan to pay down the $35 trillion dollar National Debt, a plan to realistically cut taxes for the working middle class, a plan to eliminate Taxpayers monies being paid out fraudulently to individuals and businesses who wish to defraud our government, a plan to make health care affordable again, a plan to stop using Taxpayers monies to prop up our foreign enemies and a plan to restore our free market system while lessening the sickening 24% Federal control of our Gross Domestic Product. It can be done, but politically Vice President Harris does not have the abilities nor the background to change her failed ways. Truly enough is enough of the Democrats control of our economy and its Taxpayers.

Does Government For The People Exist Any More?
I wonder what has happened to our government. Does our government represent you and I, the common taxpayers in our society? The past four years at the Federal and Connecticut level have seen an enormous amount of governing by fiat; executive orders on anything and everything that can buy votes and or satisfy a political donor base. We have seen a continual disregard of law through numerous dictates from the Biden-Harris and King Ned Lamont the Unaccountable administrations including (but not limited to) energy independence, an open and unchecked border, an elimination of student loan debt, runaway inflation, a deadly illegal drug crisis, rampant homelessness due to governmental incompetence, a $35 trillion dollar National Debt crisis, a failed and costly green energy at all costs policy, dilution of personal rights, attempted assassinations of a Presidential candidate, national security blunders, and much, much more. This is not the latest news to anyone. Bad and incoherent decisions at the national level by a President who is a shell of his former self along with an unprepared, speech stumbling (and possibly impaired) Vice President has placed our country in danger and vulnerable to a loss of personal freedoms and war with communist/totalitarian countries. We are in great peril at this time in our nation's history at about every level of our government.
Again, I still wonder what happened to our government. Many taxpayers and legal citizens feel a total disconnect with their government and questionable actions. They feel they have been lied to by politicians who were elected to represent all people in their district, town and or city. That is no longer the case except for certain exceptions. Many politicians today have a clear-cut agenda that if you disagree with it, you are treated a leper to society. One excellent example of this is the unchecked hatred by many in our government against a free Israel and the freedom of religion for those of the Jewish faith. Another example was the severe economic destruction forced by Connecticut's government during the Covid-19 debacle. How many lives and businesses were destroyed by the draconian executive orders issued by The Unaccountable? To this day no one knows how much profit was made through no bid contracts by the state with companies that were owned by his family's hedge fund Oak HC/FT. How much was it? Who else in the political universe cashed in? And why does no elected official whatsoever join my friend and colleague Tony De Angelo who has doggedly and continually pursued these questions since the onset.
But wait, this all gets better for you. Taxpayers must also hear the
daily unhinged rhetoric of Connecticut’s State Senator Duff and United States
Senator Chris Murphy as they continually spew ignominious hatred of President
Trump and all who disagree with them. Senator Murphy is one of the prime
hit men for the Democrat Party in his incoherent gibberish he spurts and spouts
about President Trump and the Republican party. One needs to remind the
Senator that his party has been in charge over the past four years and owns the
problems we have in 2024. Do both Senators not realize that they may have
legal voters and taxpayers who support President Trump of whom they have a duty
to represent? And don't these same legal voters and taxpayers have a
right to freedom of speech and belief in their support of President
Trump? Or is that not allowed any more especially with two assassination
attempts on President Trump's life? I no longer see the Democrat Party
especially with puppets like Murphy and Duff representing legal voters and
taxpayers, as the conduct of fine and responsible Democratic leaders of the
past like Harry Truman and John F. Kennedy is probably on the way to be excised from the
revisionist history books.
Politicians can never take responsibility for their incoherent and hurtful actions as taxpayers serve our political class especially in Connecticut and other blue states. Our government is crumbling before us with a constant stream of disjointed and muddled pomposity that we are force fed daily by our elected officials and an obedient state-run media. Your government exists now only for a ruling elite, a similar ruling elite that we broke away from England from in 1776. The mental beating up of taxpayers is tiring and unjustifiable by its government. That is the situation we are in 2024. A government where the citizen is damned while the elected official reigns unchecked and authoritarian in its omnipotent rule. We have a massive disconnect in our society with our government and its citizens. The time is now to put an end to this disgrace of democracy. Because enough is indeed, enough.

The Insult Parade Debate That Wasn't- Harris Versus Trump
Apparently, there was an monumental Armageddon debate this past week between the two Presidential candidates that was anything but that. Vice-President Kamala Harris, through major help from ABC News correspondents David Muir and Linsey Davis, was able to bait President Donald Trump throughout the debate and fact check him at will. In the attack by this coordinated triumvirate, there was absolutely no fact checking on anything that was said by the Vice-President during the proceedings. The debate was a subdued shouting match that did little to persuade the voting public, most of whom have their minds made up already as to who they will vote for. Other than the egregious and improper actions by the moderators, nothing new was shown to the American public.
If one were searching for a clear winner, many think that the winner was the Vice-President regardless of the magniloquence and prevarication she spewed during the debate. In this connection, there are several examples that have been noted and should be looked at again at this time. For example, the Vice-President completely ducked the first question as to if she felt Americans were better off under her regime than they were four years ago. Later, she made the statement that “(she) was the tie-breaking vote on the Inflation Reduction Act, which opened new leases for fracking.” This, was an outright lie. Hasn't this administration fought fracking from the first day they took office? Wasn't it a fact that West Virginia Senator Joe Manchin's demanded a provision to be placed in this bill that forced the government from holding offshore wind sales unless it auctioned off a certain amount of offshore area for oil and gas? The intention of this provision was to adjust our national energy supply by continuing fracking. Furthermore, did not the Biden-Harris Administration cancel all the planned 47 offshore oil and gas lease sales that President Trump had approved? And sadly, this provision by Senator Manchin yielded only three new sales for the 2024–2029-time frame. This is the Vice-President’s anti-fracking, anti-fossil fuel energy policy in full view. Also please keep in mind that the Biden-Harris Administration supports buying oil from the Dictator of Venezuela Maduro to prop up his regime. But regardless, there were no questions raised by the surrogate Democrat administration of Muir-Davis at this lie, as they gleefully with much joy shredded President Trump for the sake of Team Democracy.
Rather than describing any one policy position even conceptually, the Vice-President seemed to be occupied solely with hostile and well-rehearsed rhetoric for the battle to discredit President Trump at all costs by bringing up “critical issues” such as the size of his campaign rallies and the many legal issues he has fought for the past four years that were engendered and blessed by the her own Biden-Harris Administration. When the viewer tried to understand the Vice-President’s stances on economic and social positions, such were either limited in nature, or in many cases not even touched upon. In all candor, the Vice-President revealed a severe lack of character by her continual affronts, barbs, insults, condescension, and sarcasm towards President Trump when addressing any opposition to her failed bombast. This debate proved little to most Americans. Instead of clearly articulating where she stands on pressing issues, little if anything was revealed. Just vote for her and you will find out then. But are you surprised? This is the Biden-Harris-Bernie Sanders playbook taken from the master Saul Alinsky in his “Rules for Radicals,” being to just lie and deny and all is justified because the cause is noble and just, integrity and honesty, be damned.
What was even more reaffirming of this twisted Democrat mission were some of the X-Twitter comments by the esteemed Connecticut Democrat leadership regarding the debate. “They are laughing at the weak manbaby” tweeted Senate Majority Leader Bob Duff on September 11. “What a broken man” tweeted House Majority Leader Jason Rojas during the debate, “Let’s Not Go Back” tweeted State Senator Matt Lesser on September 10. Typical to the Democrat playbook, none of these gentlemen made any references to policy or procedure, because there never is any such thing coming from them. Unfortunately, voters in the once-great Nutmeg state are used to this pattern of the Democrat satellite never straying far from the Mothership when it comes down to the Democrat conduct of business as usual.
Nonetheless, it is clear for this election to understand that Democrat policies of the past four years did not work, so the dictate of the Global Democrat Mothership is a resort to character assassination. Devoid of sound policy and governance, it is now a defining trait of Democrat candidates to ambush, bombard, charge and siege all things Donald Trump, conservative, Judeo-Christian or even American for that matter. The incessant attacks continue upon a President that proceeded to improve our economy, make our country stronger militarily, respected the hardworking common man and woman and has a deep love for our country when he served from 2017 to 2020. Anyone in his or her right mind has witnessed the destruction of our country from 2021-2024 that I never believed would be possible in my lifetime. We now live in a country on the brink of economic ruin with a $35 trillion dollar National Debt, runaway inflation, a “green energy policy” at all costs, unchecked illegal immigration from an open border unchecked by its Vice-Presidential "border czar", an illegal drug crisis, an abortion fixation, laws that no longer pertain to a ruling elite and the anti-Israel/pro Hamas nightmare that does not cease nor will ever do so with a "two-state" solution which by definition would mean the end of Israel, the greatest ally of the United States. This is not the America that we want, or we deserve. The Biden-Harris Administration has failed America. The serially incompetent Kamala Harris does not deserve or warrant any more time in elected office as her policies and lack of integrity and imagination have severely damaged our country. This debate if anything solidified support for the Trump-Vance Administration and a much better future for America.

Democrat Chris Murphy versus Republican Matt Corey The David Versus Goliath Matchup of 2024
Quirky and unstable Democrat United States Senator Chris Murphy may be lonely. So much so, that he wants to help people with their perceived loneliness. He appears to not wish to be a Senator for life like his partner, Vietnam Veteran Senior Senator Socialist Richard Blumenthal. Senator Murphy is running for re-election as Junior Senator from Connecticut and in a sad reflection to the state, has been a Senator since 2013. Senator Murphy has never held a genuine job in his life, as he lists his profession as a lawyer and author, but his employment has been mostly paid for by Taxpayers as a Democrat office holder his entire career. Chris Murphy has been as State Representative, State Senator, U.S. Congressman, and now U.S. Senator since 1999. Since the start of his “government service” Senator Murphy has not done much in political career as far as creating bills, legislating and/or helping the people in Connecticut in the view of many. However, he has been exceptional in getting in front of the media in spewing incoherent gibberish daily, leading the weak minded to believe he is an expert on anything and everything in Connecticut. Therefore, this unstable conduct and faux sense of humanitarianism makes him guaranteed to be re-elected in the minds of the Democrat Party. Moreover, his frequent game of show and tell on Twitter and the daily crucifixion off all things Donald Trump and Republican obviously make Senator Murphy the ordained Senator for Life, as it may allow him to continue his career of “public service.” This particular "public service" con game is good for Senator Murphy, as he has otherwise never held real and gainful employment.
But since this is Connecticut, why should we deal in any kind of fact? That said, I am pleased to report that the 2024 campaign seems to be running smoothly for Senator Murphy and his Democrat Party. Even though the election is over two months away we are led to believe that Senator Murphy has already been re-elected, his upcoming election is merely a formality, and somehow Kamala Harris also has been coronated as the new President via proxy by the Democrat Party ruling council. In a pattern all too familiar to legitimate citizens in Connecticut, the Democrat Party operatives and the state-run and biased media are trying their hardest to silence all opposing voices, reminiscent of what has just happened with the rigged election in Venezuela for Strongman Dictator Maduro. But defying all the premises of Peter’s Management Principle of being promoted to one’s highest level of incompetence, somehow Senator Murphy is violating that principle and is contemplated as the new Secretary of State for the Harris Administration. This is the same Senator Murphy that apparently did not think anything was wrong with the past four years of the feeble and incredibly inept Biden-Harris Administration as he was a strong cheerleader for all of the economic, social, and global failures it has presided over since 2021, like the failed Afghanistan withdrawal, open borders, a new illegal drug crisis, runaway inflation, a $35 trillion dollar National Debt, open borders, rampant crime, destroyed cities, and a simmering powder keg of regional wars. But undeterred, Chris Murphy's magic manic mantra is a cadence of gibberish repeating that anti-business policies, anti-gun policy, gun control at all costs and higher taxes will save us all. His supposed qualifications for Secretary of State are comical to say the least, but unfortunately this would not be the first time an evil incompetent from Connecticut somehow reached the Presidential Cabinet.
But what happens if Murphy loses the election? I have been criticized for stating this as apparently, he is already the winner. But what happens if his Republican opponent, a working business owner, conservative and primary winner by the name of Matt Corey runs an exceptional race this election and defeats Senator Murphy? By all appearances, Corey epitomizes the concepts of hard work, grit, and determination in a classic David versus Goliath confrontation where it is hoped by many that Corey stands up aggressively and loudly to those who are tired of being mocked and ridiculed by the stoic, vapid, and failed leaders of the Democrat Party of Connecticut.
My review of Corey’s policy package reflects realistic and useful proposals and platforms that will actually help the working middle class of the state of Connecticut. Some of his ideas include, (but are not limited to), supporting Connecticut’s private insurance industry, controlling taxes and spending, expanding apprenticeship programs to expand job opportunities, stopping taxation of Social Security payments, securing our borders, and respect and support for our law enforcement men and women. These policies are diametrically opposed to the continual gibberish of Senator Murphy. One must never forget that Senator Murphy was a spokesperson for the past four failed years of the Biden-Harris Administration and prior to that condemned all things President Trump. He has fought to get police and security officers out of school with his irrational and illogical “Counseling Not Criminalization in Schools Act” back in 2020. How useless that act was this past week in Georgia where a school resource officer shot an assailant before he murdered more people.
So, what will happen in November? Will Senator Murphy debate Candidate Corey? Why won't he? A candidate will win, and a candidate will lose both in the debate and in the election. On appearance, Republican candidate Matt Corey represents a much-needed change in the United States Senate as he has served in our military, worked several blue-collar jobs, and owns his own business. He has real world depth and experiences that make him incredibly unique as compared to the decayed and spoiled typical career politicians that are constantly cloned out of the Democrat Party. Never a new thought, never a solution, and bellows of disrespect and ridicule for anyone who disagrees with them are all the standard of the "leaders" of the Democrat Party today. Senator Murphy echoes those qualities in his daily diatribes and fulmination of all things President Trump and the Republican Party. It is a bore and chore to listen to his continual venom and toxin.
But let us be candid in the fact that given Senator Murphy’s mythic status in the Democratic machine, Corey must fight a David-like. aggressive, and outsized non-traditional campaign in order to win, while going far beyond the litany of past Republican candidates who did nothing more than fight weak, unconvincing and muddled campaigns bereft of policy. Moreover, in my estimation, Corey must establish a bright line between himself and Senator Murphy and must be a champion for the social, economic, and most critical energy policies of President Donald Trump. If Corey is unafraid and committed, Connecticut at last could finally have some real representation in the United States Senate.
In conclusion, the possibility of defeating Senator Murphy will never be as good as it is right now. That said, I hope that Matt Corey boldly steps out of the mold of past Connecticut Republican candidates to defeat our serially incompetent Senator Murphy this November.

The Real “Project 2025”- (aka The Hope of Americans To Afford Groceries in 2025)
I do not know many people who can survive without eating food. Over the past four years, we've experienced runaway inflation under the economically bereft and failed Biden-Harris administration. In economic theory, this inflation is supposedly easing, but it has allowed soaring prices to persist, especially for food. Vice President Kamala Harris, the newly appointed presidential candidate, has stated that she wants to eliminate "price gouging" at grocery stores through a magical formula of price controls that will somehow lower food prices and mystically make them more affordable. However, we know little about this program other than the classic liberal rhetoric that anyone and everyone in business is evil, especially if they seek to earn a profit to merely pay their bills.
Does the esteemed Vice President realize that her party has mandated above-equilibrium minimum wages in many states eliminating jobs and causing the prices of goods, especially food, to rise? Does she understand that the cost of the grain to feed chickens has doubled over the past few years? Does she know what a "profit margin" is and how unchecked and barbaric retail shoplifting can eliminate profit margins for many retailers, especially grocery stores? Does she have any clue whatsoever that the increased costs of energy are a direct burden on the costs of goods and services and their delivery? Profits are impermissible and taboo unless they benefit the Democrat Party's political apparatus, such as King Ned Lamont "the Unaccountable" Lamont and his family's myriad investments and hedge fund, millionaire heiress Nancy Pelosi, anti-capitalist multi-millionaire and multi-business owner Gavin Newsom, millionaire President Biden with his corrupt son's pay-to-play phone calls, “Multi-Millionaire Man of The People” Comrade Senator Richard Blumenthal, or Socialist millionaire Rosa DeLauro. Price controls are defined as "a government regulation establishing a maximum price to be charged for specified goods and services, especially during periods of war or inflation." Throughout history, it is clearly determined that price controls do not work, as anyone in the Democrat Party would realize if they bothered to research American economic history more closely, particularly during the 1970s. The price controls under both the Nixon and Carter administrations were abysmal failures, leading to even higher prices and shortages of gas and oil. For those old enough to remember, there were long lines at gas stations and great shortages of gas and diesel fuel during the two Arab oil embargoes. These shortages were exacerbated by price controls on gas and oil enacted during this time, rather than allowing the free market to explore and drill for more domestic oil to reduce our dependency on foreign OPEC oil. When President Reagan took office, he eliminated price controls, resulting in increased supply, lower prices, and a major boom in the automotive industry, particularly for the near-bankrupt Chrysler Corporation.
Presidential candidate Harris apparently contradicts her role as Vice President in her coronation as President, as she seems to believe that our economy is still struggling with inflation. She is now a declared candidate who is disowning her record as Vice President and creating yet another fabrication of stale and copied ideas as her own, including price controls to curb food inflation. Her Vice Presidency has helped to cripple many parts of our economy with unchecked federal spending that offers scant results, a failing green energy agenda without any cost restriction, abortion at all costs to the American taxpayer, a $35 trillion national debt, and a deep-rooted dislike and disdain for any American taxpayer who disagrees with her party's progressive, socialist, and communist decrees and ideals.
Price controls always carry unintended consequences, and we are only seeing the beginnings of what another failed Democrat administration might look like. And this scenario is both dire, and dour. I highly suggest stocking up on non-perishable goods and paper products because I believe that with the creation of the “President’s Price Gouging Czar” Office, we will make the runaway inflation of the past four years look like a bargain compared to the much higher prices and chronic shortages she will inflict on our economy. We are already dealing with billions of dollars being spent on social welfare programs resulting in crime, homelessness and hunger that never seem to go away due to the lack of accountability by the unelected and inept bureaucrats and failed officials who create these programs. More money and more taxes are their only solutions, and now, with socialist-type price controls, we are headed for yet another failed outcome. And as the incipient decline accelerates, we can look forward to the mindless patter of social media posts coming from The Unaccountable, and/or members of the Connecticut State Senate as to “achieving equity” or “the evils of MAGA” or “The Connecticut Comeback” or the clincher of “Trump is/was a Felon”, all of which will of course comfort and reassurance for any Connecticut family without enough cash for milk or eggs.
America can avoid this scenario. The solution is to vote this economic and societal cancer known as the Democrat Party out of office, a party that is now led by a Vice President who has never truly led, and her gang of multi-millionaire bureaucrats who have no understanding of economic reality whatsoever. I personally believe she has been an atrocious failure as the next in command (if anyone is in command) in the White House. She and her party need to go, so our country and economy can become free again in 2025. It would be the last hope for America.

The Democrat Party Convention: President Trump's Censure and Kamala Harris's Coronation As The New President
If you have been following the Democrat National Convention this past week you may have been able to feel the hatred of the supposed great divider and world arsonist in former President Trump, who has under the guise of numerous lawsuits, seizures, and raids launched by Democrat Party operatives over the past several years, had the actual audacity and lack of remorse to run for President again. President Trump was ripped, berated, and shredded by the "joyful" Democrats who spoke against him during the convention especially admonishing the masses in "turning the page" on the great divider Donald Trump while needling and bashing him throughout numerous speeches.
If you were following the Democrat convention this past week, you were treated to the usual suspect supporting cast-of toadies, sycophants, and lackeys to all things wonderful and Democrat. We saw Gov. Phil Murphy of New Jersey, faking a smile as HE was not chosen as the vice-presidential candidate. We saw the inept, mentally vacant, (and ruinous) Gov. Kathy Hochul of New York. We saw Gov. Gavin (“the Hair”) Newsom of the disaster state of California. And we saw Connecticut’s own King Ned Lamont The Unaccountable. All have severe character and integrity issues. All are inept and cannot lead nor execute. All grossly mismanaged Covid-19. All preside over the worst and most unsafe cites in the country. But all come to share the glow on how wonderful things are going to be as the result of this fantastic rewrite of American History, reality, be damned.
It has been the Democrat Party playbook since 2016 to humiliate and demean all things Trump, in sharp contrast to how these people treated him prior to his candidacy for President. However, since that time, the playbook has been to criticize, condemn, castigate, and censure everything and anything Donald J. Trump. I continue to wonder what President Trump knows that makes him so hated by the Democrat Party. Does he have first-hand knowledge of the corruption of Joe and Hunter Biden? Does he have first-hand knowledge of the failures of the federal government with its unyielding bureaucracy? Is he too sympathetic to the humble working middle class and wants for them to have the ability to advance themselves to greater economic freedom and mobility by cutting taxes? Does President Trump echo too many thoughts that we as common citizens want to express but are afraid to do for fear of retributions by the ruling elite? What is it about this man that is so wretched and horrific?
But in conjunction with this packaged hatred, The Democrat Party must promote any and/or all of the failed policies of the Biden-Harris Administration while machinating the elimination of the Joe Biden re-election campaign since he was not coherent or "Presidential" in his debate with President Trump. But leave all of that at the side of the road! American voters need to understand that the massive failures of the Biden-Harris Administration are all somehow rousing success stories! American voters need to understand that runaway inflation has absolutely nothing to with runaway federal government deficit spending but has everything to do with evil business profiteering! You somehow, are spending less money today than under the time of President Trump! American voters need to understand that an open border that allows unchecked and costly illegal immigrants has nothing to do with Democrat Border Czar Kamala Harris's policies but is the fault of Trump and the Republican Party! American voters need to understand that Biden's ban on fracking was a boon to energy in our country and that Harris's endorsement of fracking in 2024 is needed to get our economy moving again! Why was fracking vilified in the first place? American voters need to understand that there are no perils or conflicts in our world today while we are on the verge of another World War. Lies are truth, and truth are lies, to the Democrat Party.
American voters know little about what Vice President Harris is (or was) during the past four years. She has difficulty speaking in an unscripted manner and in front of a non-staged audience. She knows how to read a teleprompter almost as well as President Biden did, (reading “price gouging,” as “price gauging.” We know she was a liberal Senator from California along with being a liberal progressive Attorney General as the state descended into ruin. We know very little of her past four years as Vice President of the United States as she was kept under wraps to try not make any mistakes, misspeaks and or create any more damage than what President Biden did already. We do not know what she actually is due to the help of the state-run media. Ditto with "folksy" Tim Walz who orchestrated the great destruction of cities in his state during the George Floyd crisis. and is a liberal Governor overseeing a state with high taxes, calamity, and confusion.
Kamala Harris has been proclaimed as our new President based on what? Based on her unknown stances and or work as the Vice President for the past four years? All of this was proclaimed while President Trump had been shot at and almost assassinated while the media tried to spin it as not happening and the Secret Service tried to cover it up. So American Voters just need to vote for Kamala Harris because she is Kamala Harris. Nothing more and nothing less. Nothing else is required.
It is amazing to see how dumbed down and stripped down the Democrat Party has made the Presidency. The past four years of a corrupt, inept, and feeble Joe Biden magically produces a Kamala Harris who had no idea she was part of one of the most failed Presidencies in our nation's history. Think about that when you vote in November. President Trump is a proven leader who stands up for both the United States of America and for its citizens. Kamala Harris is a puppet of a bankrupt, future-less and wrecked Democrat Party. And the real choices are simple regardless of the attempt at the restatement of reality, being a free America vs. a distorted dreamscape of an America that will lead to its accelerated destruction.

The Failed Economic Fantasy Land and The Joyful World Of Kamala Harris
There have been many, many economic policy failures of the failed Democrat Biden-Harris Administration. Voters are now being treated to lies as far as the economic accomplishments of this administration. Unfortunately, there is not much good economic news that has transpired since this Administration took office back in 2021. The sad fact of the matter is our economy is in a gravely troubled state no matter how the state-run media tries to spin it.
The costs of borrowing to prop up a $35 trillion-dollar National Debt has grown by an enormous amount, especially given higher prevailing interest rates. This interest will cost taxpayers roughly $900 billion dollars for 2024, and accounts for over 3% of our Gross Domestic Product. That amounts to $900 billion dollars that is unproductive in our economy, as is the growing $35 trillion-dollar National Debt. It is clear that the Democrat Party endorsed candidates Vice-President Harris and liberal spending and volatile Minnesota Governor Tim Walz have no understanding nor care of the economic turmoil that this debt causes. And obviously with a limited economics education and no understanding of how a free-market economy works, Vice President Harris shows that she is unaware of any economic event that has taken place since she took office, but she likes to project “joy, wherever she goes.” I guess she must feel "joy" as to how her Administration has helped to bankrupt the country.
Costs have increased dramatically for just about all consumer goods and services. These additional costs include housing, electricity, transportation, medical care, gasoline, all food items, all consumer staples, the costs of borrowing money/interest rates, clothing, paper goods, and many more. Costs have gone up for consumers and businesses and industries. Vice President Harris seems to be enamored with her new phrase of "shrinkflation" developed by her glib, hip marketers to help shift blame from her Administration to all of those “greedy, profit driven businesses” that somehow created her Administration's nonstop deficit spending. This is the same nonstop government deficit spending that has created the runaway inflation we have had since 2021.
In review of the Biden-Harris-Walz debacle, one can only shake their head and ask if there is any Democrat-controlled environment anywhere where expenses are low, cities are safe, budgets are balanced, and businesses prosper. But that is not the case anywhere. Take the Democrat-run policy bereft, economically burdened, and energy-crippled and incoherent state of King Ned Lamont The Unaccountable’s Connecticut. Where problems are met with excuses and where issues are ducked by the political class like beanballs. The old Hebrews would say that the apple does not fall far from the tree. So, picture what a Harris-Walz administration acting in like manner can do to further destroy America if it acts only one-half as bad as states like Connecticut and California.
However, there are given solutions to help eliminate inflation in our economy, although in order to qualify as such they must be politically generated! The Federal Reserve Bank has done all it can to help raise interest rates to make money more expensive in order to somehow "cool" inflation. It will violate long-standing practice and “help” the economy along politically by having an interest rate cut in September to further the illusionary process of having inflation go down and or remain stable. Of course, this faux policy will be heralded by all Democrats and the state-run media couched in terms that Vice President Harris has miraculously “solved the problems of inflation” even though her Administration has helped to oversee one of the greatest losses of personal wealth for many socio-economic groups since 2021. (In point of fact, one can wonder if Vice President Harris is capable of balancing her own checkbook).
Inflation and the great loss of personal wealth can be corrected. It starts with government at all levels cutting back spending dramatically. This means immediately cutting back on the massive and failed economic subsidies for green energy. It starts with the closing our border and the unchecked migration of anyone and everyone whom we as Taxpayers get to support. It starts with a government forced to meet economic efficiencies to save money. It starts with an end to the failed Democrat Biden Harris Administration and the election of a new President who is not associated as the former Vice President of this incompetent and corrupted economic debacle we have been forced to live through since 2021. You are not better off economically than you were in 2021. 2025 can represent a new beginning for our economy and country in many ways-it will not happen with the "joy" of Vice President Harris and Minnesota Governor Tim Walz who are a metastasizing cancer in our society in 2024.Saturday, August 10, 2024
The Chaos and Confusion of The Connecticut Electric and Energy Policy Jungle
Welcome to Connecticut! The state with one of the most expensive, nonsensical, impractical, irrational, and laughable energy and energy policies in the country. Therefore, suffice it to say that Electric bills are extremely expensive in Connecticut especially if one has Eversource Energy. Lately it has been discovered by many individuals that Eversource includes a "Public Benefits" charge in its monthly billing. You, as a poor slob ratepayer may wonder what a "Public Benefits " charge is doing on your electric bill? Unfortunately, you pitifully ignorant consumer, you are just now realizing that your electric bill today is a very secretive example of governmental market interference burdening the cost of a critically needed commodity.
In review of the psychodrama entitled “How Many Ways Can Connecticut Screw Up Your Light Bill”, you will note that your Eversource bill now has four areas of division, 1) Generation and Supply, or the costs to produce the electricity you use, 2) Transmission, being the costs to actually deliver the electricity from generator to electric substations, 3) Local Power, or the costs of getting the electricity from these substations to your home or business, and finally 4) Public Benefits, being a Democrat created term for hidden confiscatory state taxes that pay for state mandates such as renewable energy investments that you never were given opportunity to vote on along with welfare benefits that help to pay for people who can't afford these incredibly high energy costs in the state and other similar programs. The cost of Public Benefits is 27.8% of your bill, or over one quarter of it. As an example, if you have a $400 monthly bill, $111.20 of it has absolutely nothing to do with the electricity you are using. It should be referred to as a state excise “gouging tax” that gets doled out to yet another bureaucracy in Connecticut providing absolutely no benefit to you.Needless to say, when Democrats run amok in Connecticut the operative question then becomes what constructive and aggressive actions will state Republicans push back with? Sadly, the usual answer is not much. A press conference held at the Legislative Office Building on August 8 found Republicans calling for the usual lukewarm mix of using ARPA funds and contrived surpluses as a band-aid fix. Regulatory changes were also mentioned. Some moderately constructive suggestions to date have come from Republican State Senator Rob Sampson who has been vocal in his opposition to this "tax". and has over the past two years introduced different "policy proposals" that would help to lower astronomical electric bills. (Sen. Sampson: CT’s Energy Crisis is the Last Straw - Connecticut Senate Republicans). However, to a man or to a woman, no state Republican in Connecticut has ever even hinted at the most critical medicine needed to truly fix state energy policy, being the embracing of the Trump energy proposals, calling for the elimination of the farcical and horrific green energy and wind power debacle, and the immediate infusion of the use of natural gas of which my friend and colleague Tony De Angelo commented that Republicans are just now whispering about, where they should have been screaming for its introduction and infusion six months ago.
But even so, more problems are afoot. The regulatory environment for electric companies is farcical and obstructive in Connecticut. I have always believed such was developed as a veneer to help nurture high and politically correct electric rates for the state. The Public Utilities Regulatory Authority (“PURA”) is responsible for regulating the rates and services for Eversource Energy. If one looks back at the decisions that PURA has made over the years for Eversource there is no appearance of any effective questioning of rates, expenses, mandates or accountability, nor do Eversource customers have any say whatsoever in the process of rate hearing and or rate increases. Why is this so? Is it because of prominent legislators from both parties being employed, highly compensated, and/or connected to Eversource or related clandestinely operating nonprofits in conflicted arrangements criminal in several better-thinking states? (https://www.advancect.org/our-organization/board-of-directors). But now, public awareness is at an all-time high with Eversource stating there will be a $48 a month increase in the Public Benefits section of customers' bills as supply rates will go down from 14.71 cents to 8.99 cents per kilowatt-hour. (https://www.wtnh.com/news/connecticut/eversource-rates-increasing-in-july/). The announced increase is a mere $8 a month for average customers. However, what is not noted is the Public Benefits part of your bill for the next ten months for an average $400 monthly bill is an astounding 39% of the bill itself! But I have no concerns. That projection is only for a mere ten months!
Of course, there is the usual blame game along with the typical stale political and economic rhetoric over this rate increase that is echoed by both political sides. However, Eversource is mandated and burdened by the state to create clean energy at any cost. Eversource needs to earn a profit to stay in business. Democrats scream about electric rate increases while not understanding any of the economic consequences of their decayed and rancid clean energy and “public good” decrees and fiats that do much more harm than good for the state's economy. But due to this rudderless mess, Connecticut ratepayers get to pay one of the highest electric costs in the country.
But somehow, with this rudderless mess starting from King Ned Lamont the Unaccountable and his Democrat Party henchman and stooges, the electric rate increases, the excessive taxes on electricity and the unattainable desire not to use or even suggest the use of fossil fuels, will all be forgotten. And this is standard operating procedure in a state that has massive, short- and long-term debt along with unfunded liabilities of anywhere from $125 to $150 billion dollars, along with the monumental and prodigious cost of living and cost of doing business in the state. This rate increase along with many other examples of Democrat Party interference and lack of pushback in the economy are the cancer that has helped create the economic conundrum that Connecticut is known for today.
Effective policy, and not oratory, pandering, and bloviating, is what is needed in 2024 for the state.

How Did America Ever Survive the Wretched Government of Biden-Harris?
All through my life I have lived through incredible crises. The Cuban Missile Crisis, The Bay of Pigs Crisis, the Kennedy Assassination and its Multi-Layered Cover-Up Crisis, the Vietnam War and the pitiful surrender in 1975 Crisis, The Civil Rights Riots Crisis, The 1968 Democrat Convention Riots Crisis, The 1968 Murders of Martin Luther King and Robert F. Kennedy Crisis, The Watergate Crisis, The Energy Crisis Parts One and Two, The “No More Energy By The Year 2000” Crisis, Nixon's resignation, the "Whip Inflation Now" Crisis, the Khmer Rouge Death March Crisis, The Iranian Hostage Crisis, the Reagan Assassination Attempt Crisis, The Iran Contra Crisis, The Savings And Loan Crisis, the Gulf War Crisis, the Clinton Sex Scandals Crisis, The Clinton Impeachment Crisis, The Dot-Com Bubble Crisis, The 9/11 Crisis, The Afghanistan War Crisis, The Great Recession Economic Crisis of 08, The Housing Crisis of 08-09, The Nationalized Obamacare Health Insurance Crisis, The BLM Riots and Summer of Love Crisis, the Climate Change Crisis, The Ongoing All Things President Trump Crisis and The Covid-19 Deathly Virus Crisis. That is a great deal of crises that I and others have had to deal with over the past 65 years, reflecting on how government and its attendant bad policies have caused many debacles to occur over the past seven decades.
But none of the above seems to permeate the conscience of the Vice President Harris campaign as it focuses on the usual Democrat talking points: The Biden-Harris debacle was the greatest four years in our country's history! The Biden-Harris debacle has somehow created all sorts of jobs through Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion! The Biden-Harris debacle has no border crisis whatsoever as these non-citizens can somehow pay taxes and vote in the upcoming election! The Biden-Harris debacle is adamant and unrelenting that President Trump is a true threat to democracy and that the economic and social nightmare this country has been forced to live under is all Donald Trump’s fault even going back before the time he even was President. Vice President Harris is a mirror image of her failed President's administration, she cannot change these failures nor is the least bit interested in doing so.
Our government's deep, secretive state along with its non-elected politically connected advisors have helped to create a great deal of questionable, social, and economically horrific laws, rules, regulations, and policies. We as American Taxpayers apparently must shrug off this insanity and just grin and bear it. I fail to see how we are still living in a representative democracy given what takes place in our government and political system. Billions of dollars control our election process with little result. Truth is hard to find in our government especially in the Biden-Harris Administration. We as a country can ill afford another wasted four years of this incoherent Democrat Party gibberish. Kamala Harris can't change the history of her baffling, bewildering, and incomprehensible past four years of hiding as Vice President of the United States of America.
She is unprepared, ill-equipped, incompetent, and enfeebled to become the President. And God help America if she is ever elected.

The Disconnection and Disunion of The Enigma Known as Kamala Harris
Let us begin by recapping the following statements with respect to President Joe Biden, all of which were represented to be true at the time they were stated.
President Joe Biden is running for re-election, he may have had a few minor ailments or slip ups, but he is more up for the task.
President Joe Biden is in for the long haul, there is nothing wrong with him physically or mentally.
President Joe Biden is the choice for the Democrat Party during the primary season, and forget about Minnesota Representative Dean Phillips and his actual questioning of Biden's health in his attempt to provide Democrat voters a choice during the primaries (Who, or what, is a Dean Phillips, anyway?)
The American Voter does not understand what a threat to democracy a second Trump Administration would be for the country, that is why President Joe Biden is running again.
The American Voter does not understand how much better off they are under Democrat Party rule, with runaway inflation, unchecked crime, a soaring National Debt, an unsecured border, and the brink of another World War brewing.
President Joe Biden is incapable of running for a second term to continue his hard work and efforts in leading our country.
President Joe Biden will not run for a second term and endorses his Vice President Kamala Harris.
Welcome to the "people's" election of 2024. If you are a registered Democrat, the choice has been brokered and negotiated for you for several years, regardless of what your feelings are in the matter. Deals are made in secret. Deals are made for policies and laws via executive orders. Communications with President Biden have been limited with controlled questions and answers with Democrat sanctioned media, while the White House Press Secretary has lied with her incoherent blather and gibberish insulting Americans intelligence and the world on a daily basis. But all that is now forgotten and forgiven, as Joe Biden has been forced out of the election by his party. Thus, we will assume that the President is still capable of listening to the secret group of non-elected advisors that apparently control him and our country with their incoherent decisions, policies, and actions until he leaves office. No matter what the cost is to our country, our freedoms and our world security will continue to be put at risk as the sad patterns of what is now the Executive branch of the U.S. government, continue unabated.
As discussed, a large part of the deals that have occurred include the resignation of President Joe Biden from the race to be succeeded by the enigmatic and nebulous Vice-President Kamala Harris. Known by some as “Kakala,” her frequent laugh and unserious demeanor has been perceived as undermining her credibility and making it difficult for some to believe she can be a strong, authoritative leader. Additionally, her shifting positions on key issues, such as healthcare and criminal justice reform, have led some to view her as politically expedient rather than principled. Her views on taxation and foreign policy are disturbing to many. Accusations of being overly ambitious and seeking the spotlight are also cited, contributing to a perception that her decisions are driven more by personal gain than by genuine commitment to public service. These factors combine to create skepticism about her readiness and suitability for the presidency. But nonetheless, she was coronated as the successor to the Democrat Presidential nomination, voter be damned.
Vice President's Harris West Allis, WI speech on 7/23/24 did little to allay those concerns as she stated: “Do we want to live in a country of freedom, compassion and rule of law, or a country of chaos, fear and hate?” “In this campaign, I promise you, I will proudly put my record against (President Trump’s) any day of the week.” But what in fact is the record of our Vice President? Is the record of her Vice Presidency an open and unsecured border since she was appointed as the effective “Border Czar” by President Biden on March 24, 2021? Since the time of her appointment, how many people have illegally come into our country? Is it her record of the ruining of America's working middle class and retirees on a fixed income with Democrat runaway inflation caused by her illogical and nonsensical energy and economic policies? Is it her record of hiding President Biden's cognitive state of decline for two years? Is her record speaking before young college women as she tells them to fear “Climate Change Anxiety?” and driving them to a state of fear? Many voters are confused as they continue in struggling to understand the supposed accomplishments of the Vice President.
But have no concerns! We realize that the Democrat state run media will again do the dirty work of creating a new and improved California type Liberal/Democrat/Socialist Kamala Harris who will promise everything and achieve nothing. She has no appeal to conservative and moderate voters who now have no place in the Democrat Party. Please rest assured that daily until election day, President Trump will be tarred and feathered, crucified, and belittled beyond recognition. For this is the norm for the all-inclusive, caring, big-tent and unifying Democrat Party of 2024. Maybe just maybe instead of all the name calling we could really focus on issues, policies, and results between the two candidates. But we know that will never happen.
Only a poor, delusional, and brainwashed soul would believe things are better now as opposed to when President Trump left office. The facts are that we are not better off than we were four years ago. We are currently in one of the most precarious times of our nation's history. Our government is corrupt in many cases. The Vice President is a mirror of the President she served with. There are no new policies except for more federal government authority, more federal government rules and regulations, more federal government deficit spending, more “public health” lockdowns, less personal freedoms, less national security and more National Debt.
If elected, Kamala Harris is in way over her head. President Trump is not.

DEI= (DIE, with the letters rearranged)
On Saturday evening, July 13, 2024, America, and the world witnessed the near murder of the 45th President of the United States, Donald J. Trump, in Butler Township, PA. As the sickening events of this assassination attempt unfolded, it was undisputed that the U.S. Secret Service was inextricably implicated in one of the most mindless and dangerous security breaches since the assassination of President William McKinley. As events unfolded, it was quite clear that the Secret Service (and its politically-correct and connected Director Kim Cheadle) were heavily invested in an employment philosophy known as “Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion” (known as “DEI”). The philosophy of DEI grants right-of-way and favor to those of a certain sex or persuasion rather than by ability, skill, or character. The policy of granting by promotion not based on ability or character has led to a Secret Service rife with ostensible arrogance, unaccountability, diluted skills, dishonestly, and confusion, all of which are embodied by Ms. Cheadle and this situation could have cost Mr. Trump his life and subsequently thrown the country into Civil War. But who really cares, when one values the color of one’s skin or the composition of one’s body or physical characteristics over character and skill. For DEI is what really matters!
DEI, was the hot corporate and governmental philosophy after the demise of George Floyd in 2020. However, it is now realized by most to be a failed and largely useless policy. Microsoft, Meta, Google, and Tesla have all either curtailed or severely scaled back their DEI initiatives. Anheuser-Busch almost bankrupted itself on a laughable marketing plan based entirely upon DEI. Parents throughout this country are crying for education in academic skills rather than pandering and a faux attempt of “inclusiveness”. However, when it comes to the good old Nutmeg State of Connecticut, the continued embrace of DEI further cements the way of Connecticut fighting for demonstrably failed causes and believing in wrong things, consequences and people be damned.
With that resolve, King Governor Ned Lamont, The Unaccountable, helped to solidify his ultra-liberal socialist Democrat Party base by his recent Executive Order to establish an “Office of Equity and Opportunity” in the state. This office will be led by a currently unnamed “Chief Equity and Opportunity Officer,” who will be in charge of coordinating the state’s DEI strategy along with several other vague and undetermined psuedo-responsibilities. The job apparently will actually be posted on the state's job website. (https://portal.ct.gov/office-of-the-governor/news/press-releases /2024/07-2024/governor-lamont-issues-executive-order-establishing-office-to-promote equity?)
What does the Connecticut Taxpayer and/or the American Taxpayer receive for the billions of dollars being spent on DEI? And is becoming increasingly inarguable that DEI played a role in the near assassination of President Trump's life last week. This initiative in Connecticut begins at a time when businesses like the major players mentioned above realized that DEI training has been an illogical and costly liberal experimental mess and have reduced or eliminated it in their companies, The Unaccountable deems it essential and critical that Connecticut Taxpayers that will be adversely impacted by the endeavor foot the bill for this new bureaucracy. That, being the same bureaucracy that has helped to nurture a massive loss of population, jobs and businesses over the past 30 plus years. That same bureaucracy that has established “Crime Free Democrat Connecticut" as a paradise for criminals and crime especially for car thefts. That same bureaucracy that has established Bridgeport as perhaps the most corrupt and inefficiently run cities in the country with a convicted felon leading the city to a path of no return. That same bureaucracy that encourages the deceit, deception, and fraudulence of the election process especially in Bridgeport. That same bureaucracy that condemns minorities for not agreeing with them when they join the Republican Party calling them the worst names possible.
Under the Biden regime, DEI is all over our federal government. The military, law enforcement, governmental agencies have seminars and classes on it. Security seems to be a victim to DEI and the inclusion of all in security (even if they are incapable of doing the job). We can also look back in April when H.R.800, “The Denying Infinite Security and Government Resources Allocated toward Convicted and Extremely Dishonorable Former Protectees Act” was introduced by Mississippi Democrat Congressman Bennie Thompson that would remove Secret Service protection from anyone convicted of a felony and sentenced to prison, which upon a hypothetical passage would set Mr. Trump up for a shiv if he were to be incarcerated. Seeing this, one could easily argue that many Democrats seem not to care for either law and order nor security by seeing this Act be introduced, the amount of crime not being prosecuted, illegal immigrants crossing freely through our borders and also by the lack of security (which was finally given to) Independent Presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy, Jr., who is the direct blood relative of two formidable and vital political leaders that were murdered during the time of their service.
But what does any of that matter to the Unaccountable? Connecticut will now yield to DEI correctness. Connecticut Taxpayers will be forced to pay even more in taxes as this new department and its assorted directorate, officialdom, and red tape from DEI employees, assorted political cronies, toadies and lackeys, and other Democrat Party bloat. In the future the department will need more employees and more money to operate. Transparency will never exist in this bureaucracy. There really is no need to be transparent since many state departments and commissions are accountable to no one but themselves.
But what will change by the Unaccountable’s decision? Connecticut will still have the same problems with this new DEI Czar. Connecticut still a net migration of population moving out of state, $100-$150 billion dollars’ worth of short- and long-term debt along with unfunded liabilities, a crime problem, the status of being one of the highest taxed states in the country and is at or near the bottom in most business categories. That to many seem to be the more important problems in the state rather than a bureaucracy "that will be responsible for leading Connecticut’s efforts to ensure that state government is a leader in equity and inclusion with the goals of eliminating institutional and systemic barriers,” The barriers in Connecticut have all been produced by the Democrat Party with their 30 plus years of omnipotent one party rule. The barriers in Connecticut are permanent to keep out dissenting thought and free enterprise. The barriers in Connecticut have been fortified by a state-run and controlled media. The barriers in Connecticut are ruthless in their hatred of a working middle class who is fed up with being force fed this stale propaganda that offers nothing in the way of solutions. The barriers in Connecticut need to be broken once and for all those working legal citizens and taxpayers that support this once great state.
May God Bless America and Save Connecticut from this horrible, nonsensical, and destructive decision.Saturday, July 13, 2024
The Compounded Felony of Joe Biden and His Myriad Democrat Enablers
One can argue that our President is only a figurehead in our government. However, one should not confuse a figurehead with a fossil. That said, it has become evident over the past four years that Joe Biden is only a vacuous symbol of the free world who has lost most of his capabilities to speak, make decisions, communicate with officials and leaders without a teleprompter, and make decisions on his own. His doddering mannerisms give him the appearance of one who is acting like a Monarch overlooking his own personal monarchy. The 24/7/365 incoherent gibberish spouting from pro Democrat mainstream media had covered very well for Biden up to his confused, muddled, and unclear debate performance which was blamed upon several factors that should be an insult to the intelligence of the American Voter. The American Voter, no matter what their party affiliation, has experienced and watched the gaffes, memory lapses, stumbles, and massive mental decline of Biden for years firsthand, capped off by a “Big Boy” press conference on July 11 providing the American voter with an encore performance of the same. This American Voter also has been wondering why they do not see their President communicating much if at all, except for an elite few in the media that have been carefully guarding his decline. And why is that? Because we are told constantly that a second Trump Administration is a threat to democracy and the free world as we know it. One could clearly argue that the current leftist Biden Administration has been a much graver threat to democracy over the past four years with an apparent surrogate and non-elected group of unknown individuals making decisions for our country. We are now on the verge of World War III, we insist on recognizing terrorists are legitimate leaders of countries, we have runaway inflation, we have a runaway National Debt, we have United States citizens being held hostage throughout the world and we have a grave sense of hopelessness as a country that has not been felt in many years with the America-be-damned Biden Monarchy debacle now ruling us.
It is also evident that the failed Biden administration has done an outstanding job in enabling the Democrat sycophants of the state of Connecticut on its road to ruin. The serially incompetent Miguel Cardona of Connecticut serves in a manner of sorts as the United States Secretary of Education. One might ask themselves what kind of a President appoints someone in education who thinks it is perfectly fine for your daughter to play sports with men wishing to be women and having these poor girls nervously undressing before these men without a right to complain. Obviously, only a shell of a man without any thinking sensitivities whatsoever could make such an evil appointment. And the Biden lie has been further enabled by the entire Connecticut Congressional Delegation (with the exception of a scared of not being re-elected Jim Himes) who does all it can to dance and distance itself from this issue. Not to be undone, King Governor Ned Lamont the Unaccountable continues his non-answers to all questions about Biden, while he gleefully holds his hands out for whatever largesse dear old senile Uncle Joe can fork over for the Unaccountable to somehow waste. (After all, a payday is a payday).
But of course, neither Connecticut nor the national news media strives for correct answers, as they act like publicists than journalists. At one time the media presented two sides of all news events and issues and allowed the intelligent consumer to draw his or her own conclusions. Today, we have news that is meant to indoctrinate ourselves to the failed values and demands of a socialistic state whereby a differing opinion must be silenced at all costs. This is the manner that state run media, a media that has covered for Joe Biden and his operatives, and Connecticut politicians for years, operates. And this self-serving media still believes that it is omnipotent in our society. The media acts as a self-appointed ruling part of our government in conjunction with the failed Democrat Party with all telling us what they want us to hear. This type of conduct would be deemed as fraud, larceny, or felonious conduct in the private sector, but in Democrat government, it is their equivalent of God’s work.
But ostensibly, even liars have limits. Now, we are told that some in the media are turning away from Biden. They are lecturing him as to withdraw and allow an even worse leftist/socialist/unserious/incompetent to run in our do-nothing Vice President Kamala Harris. She now must be ascended to the Monarchy and its crown to continue wreak havoc on our country with her mumbled socialist thoughts. and speech as she incoherently rambles about “reproductive rights” with said reproductive rights now available to all women. However, in seeing that, I ask how low will the Democrat Party go to preserve its power?
Time is running short for America. It can't accept four more years of disgrace and elitism that the Democrat Party at all levels of government offer. It has failed miserably since the Biden coronation. It has failed along with a nonexistent unbalanced media that is the second arm of the Democrat Party. The charade of the media in protecting one like Biden for over two years now shows the complete distaste and distrust both the media and the Democrat Party has for all of our country especially for those who question their ideologies. There is no path to victory for lying Joe Biden and his cronies. This November we will rid ourselves top to bottom of this dross, dreck and garbage that is the Democrat Party of America in 2024.

What A Mess Joe Biden Is In. What A Mess Blue States Like Connecticut, Are In. (And What A Mess We Are In)
Yet, with all these messes, Joe Biden and the Democrat Party truly believe that their liberal/socialistic laws, policies and decrees are working. And all these illusions are sufficient for a now truly dysfunctional, aging, haggard, and mentally challenged Joe Biden to be re-elected for a second term in his current nonfunctional mental and physical state. In business, education, and in other governments, a person of his current condition would not be working or governing but would be signed into elder care. However, in the United States. this career politician, who has continually gamed his political influence for his family's financial gain through the years, is supposedly the best overall person in the country and his party to lead our country. Kindly recall that Joe Biden was the person who was to unite our country and to somehow preserve our democracy back in 2020. It was drilled into us by many in government and media that The Democrat Party was supposed to resolve so many issues in our country and our world after the purported Reign of Terror of President Donald Trump. We were to be much safer than we were under that supposedly evil, flag loving, non-woke man. And the phonograph machine cranked on. However, in true Saul Alinsky fashion, Biden lied. The Democrat Party lied. The state-controlled media lied. And many people died as the result of the last four years of this Biden machine.
Reality does not exist with Joe Biden, his handlers, and at all levels of the Democrat Party. The realities of forced liberal/socialistic laws, policies and decrees have failed our country miserably for the past four years and many finely working systems now hang by a thread. You are not better off than you were four years ago. Our National Debt exceeds any ability our country has to possibly pay it off by a wide amount. So, desperation and illusion become the norm to buy votes. Giveaway gimmicks are one such vehicle that Joe Biden and his serially incompetent Secretary of Education Miguel Cardona have employed by pretending to forgive student debt, but such schemes have lasted only as long as they have been found to be illegal by courts of law. Inflation has cost Americans any savings they had remaining in many cases as they try to pay for necessities such as food, housing, and transportation. Woke administrative and DEI policies are making our country a banana republic, especially with our military. The surrender of nine military bases in Afghanistan along with hundreds of millions of dollars in live military equipment and supplies only has re-energized terrorists throughout the world. Why were American lives lost in this debacle? These failures economically, socially, and militarily are the responsibility of Joe Biden and his handlers. They own the numerous crises that they have created. And they will be difficult to fix in the short run.
In addition, the ancestors of the now-persecuted Jewish people of America were often fond of saying that apples do not fall far from their trees. And a perfectly formed apple of the rotten Democrat tree is that of the State of Connecticut, being much like other Blue States. And what a laughingstock Connecticut has become. Recent National-newsworthy events in Connecticut include an ever-worsening state voting scandal, enabled Climate-change protestors marring a world-class major golf tournament, a state representative filmed while making an obscene gesture outside of President Trump’s home, and the murder of several state employees, (one a state trooper) on the state’s interstate highway system by impaired individuals. But rather than acknowledge these grave faults and taking steps to correct them, no acknowledgments are ever made by any Democrat in Connecticut government. Just like things are at the National level, Connecticut is on the Comeback Trail! Do you disagree? (In that case, you must be some sort of racist, right-wing nut, or conspiracy theorist filled with hate).
But real Americans are fed up with these same failed liberal/socialistic laws, policies and decrees that have done nothing whatsoever to improve our economy or society. If one disagrees with Joe Biden, his handlers and or the Democrat Party you are considered the enemy. Freedom of thought and speech are only for the Democrats. Don't forget the incendiary rhetoric Biden's "unifying speech" in 2022 and his condemnation of all things Trump, where he ineloquently barked that “MAGA Republicans have made their choice. They embrace anger. They thrive on chaos. They live not in the light of truth, but in the shadow of lies,” "They promote authoritarian leaders, and they fan the flames of political violence that are a threat to our personal rights, to the pursuit of justice, to the rule of law, to the very soul of this country."(https://www.whitehouse.gov/briefing-room/speeches-remarks/2022/09/01/remarks-by-president-bidenon-the-continued-battle-for-the-soul-of-the-nation/). And yet America was forced to suffer through a pathetic President trying to debate his challenger and make you want to vote for four more years of his insanity. You truly are not better off with Joe Biden, his handlers and or the Democrat Party. They will not compromise. They are a group of political elitists and extremists who rule through intimidation, brute force, and shaming.
This chapter of American history needs to end quickly, so that our country can survive yet another 248 years of freedoms. Our country truly will be lost, and possibly destroyed, if we follow the lost paths of Joe Biden, his handlers, his Blue State acolytes, and/or the Democrat Party.

248 Years Of Freedom July 4, 1776 - July 4, 2024
IN CONGRESS, JULY 4, 1776
The unanimous Declaration of the thirteen united States of America
When in the Course of human events it becomes necessary for one people to
dissolve the political bands which have connected them with another and to
assume among the powers of the earth, the separate and equal station to which
the Laws of Nature and of Nature's God entitle them, a decent respect to the
opinions of mankind requires that they should declare the causes which impel
them to the separation.
We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal,
that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that
among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness. — That to secure
these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers
from the consent of the governed, — That whenever any Form of Government
becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to
abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such
principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most
likely to effect their Safety and Happiness. Prudence, indeed, will dictate
that Governments long established should not be changed for light and transient
causes; and accordingly all experience hath shewn that mankind are more
disposed to suffer, while evils are sufferable than to right themselves by
abolishing the forms to which they are accustomed. But when a long train of
abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object evinces a design to
reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to
throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future security.
— Such has been the patient sufferance of these Colonies; and such is now the
necessity which constrains them to alter their former Systems of Government.
The history of the present King of Great Britain is a history of repeated
injuries and usurpations, all having in direct object the establishment of an
absolute Tyranny over these States. To prove this, let Facts be submitted to a
candid world.
He has refused his Assent to Laws, the most wholesome and necessary for the
public good.
He has forbidden his Governors to pass Laws of immediate and pressing
importance, unless suspended in their operation till his Assent should be
obtained; and when so suspended, he has utterly neglected to attend to them.
He has refused to pass other Laws for the accommodation of large districts
of people, unless those people would relinquish the right of Representation in
the Legislature, a right inestimable to them and formidable to tyrants only.
He has called together legislative bodies at places unusual, uncomfortable,
and distant from the depository of their Public Records, for the sole purpose
of fatiguing them into compliance with his measures.
He has dissolved Representative Houses repeatedly, for opposing with manly
firmness his invasions on the rights of the people.
He has refused for a long time, after such dissolutions, to cause others to
be elected, whereby the Legislative Powers, incapable of Annihilation, have
returned to the People at large for their exercise; the State remaining in the
mean time exposed to all the dangers of invasion from without, and convulsions
within.
He has endeavoured to prevent the population of these States; for that
purpose obstructing the Laws for Naturalization of Foreigners; refusing to pass
others to encourage their migrations hither, and raising the conditions of new
Appropriations of Lands.
He has obstructed the Administration of Justice by refusing his Assent to
Laws for establishing Judiciary Powers.
He has made Judges dependent on his Will alone for the tenure of their
offices, and the amount and payment of their salaries.
He has erected a multitude of New Offices, and sent hither swarms of
Officers to harass our people and eat out their substance.
He has kept among us, in times of peace, Standing Armies without the Consent
of our legislatures.
He has affected to render the Military independent of and superior to the
Civil Power.
He has combined with others to subject us to a jurisdiction foreign to our
constitution, and unacknowledged by our laws; giving his Assent to their Acts
of pretended Legislation:
For quartering large bodies of armed troops among us:
For protecting them, by a mock Trial from punishment for any Murders which
they should commit on the Inhabitants of these States:
For cutting off our Trade with all parts of the world:
For imposing Taxes on us without our Consent:
For depriving us in many cases, of the benefit of Trial by Jury:
For transporting us beyond Seas to be tried for pretended offences:
For abolishing the free System of English Laws in a neighbouring Province,
establishing therein an Arbitrary government, and enlarging its Boundaries so
as to render it at once an example and fit instrument for introducing the same
absolute rule into these Colonies
For taking away our Charters, abolishing our most valuable Laws and altering
fundamentally the Forms of our Governments:
For suspending our own Legislatures, and declaring themselves invested with
power to legislate for us in all cases whatsoever.
He has abdicated Government here, by declaring us out of his Protection and
waging War against us.
He has plundered our seas, ravaged our coasts, burnt our towns, and
destroyed the lives of our people.
He is at this time transporting large Armies of foreign Mercenaries to
compleat the works of death, desolation, and tyranny, already begun with
circumstances of Cruelty & Perfidy scarcely paralleled in the most
barbarous ages, and totally unworthy the Head of a civilized nation.
He has constrained our fellow Citizens taken Captive on the high Seas to
bear Arms against their Country, to become the executioners of their friends
and Brethren, or to fall themselves by their Hands.
He has excited domestic insurrections amongst us, and has endeavoured to
bring on the inhabitants of our frontiers, the merciless Indian Savages whose
known rule of warfare, is an undistinguished destruction of all ages, sexes and
conditions.
In every stage of these Oppressions We have Petitioned for Redress in the
most humble terms: Our repeated Petitions have been answered only by
repeated injury. A Prince, whose character is thus marked by every act which
may define a Tyrant, is unfit to be the ruler of a free people.
Nor have We been wanting in attentions to our British brethren. We have
warned them from time to time of attempts by their legislature to extend an
unwarrantable jurisdiction over us. We have reminded them of the circumstances
of our emigration and settlement here. We have appealed to their native justice
and magnanimity, and we have conjured them by the ties of our common kindred to
disavow these usurpations, which would inevitably interrupt our connections and
correspondence. They too have been deaf to the voice of justice and of
consanguinity. We must, therefore, acquiesce in the necessity, which denounces
our Separation, and hold them, as we hold the rest of mankind, Enemies in War,
in Peace Friends.
We, therefore, the Representatives of the united States of America, in
General Congress, Assembled, appealing to the Supreme Judge of the world for
the rectitude of our intentions, do, in the Name, and by Authority of the good
People of these Colonies, solemnly publish and declare, That these united
Colonies are, and of Right ought to be Free and Independent States, that they
are Absolved from all Allegiance to the British Crown, and that all political
connection between them and the State of Great Britain, is and ought to be
totally dissolved; and that as Free and Independent States, they have full
Power to levy War, conclude Peace, contract Alliances, establish Commerce, and
to do all other Acts and Things which Independent States may of right do. — And
for the support of this Declaration, with a firm reliance on the protection of
Divine Providence, we mutually pledge to each other our Lives, our Fortunes,
and our sacred Honor.

The Steady Habits Of Crime And Incompetence In King Ned Lamont The Unaccountable's Connecticut
Do you disagree? Allow me to share a serious case in point being an amazing article that was actually published by the left-leaning Hartford Courant concerning a crime that could have been avoided. The alleged criminal Franklin Post, 35 years old, apparently sped through a stop sign in Griswold, CT and killed Charlotte Degrado, 96, of Branford, who was an occupant in the car that he hit. According to the article, Post has at least a dozen criminal convictions and has at least ten more criminal cases pending against him. He has served hard time in prison on three different occasions. He was free on bond even though he has been arrested six times since January. Inexplicably, he has had the ability to post $275,000 in bonds. (https://www.courant.com/2024/06/13/court-files-show-ct-driver-suspected-in-crash-that-killed-96-year-old-woman-has-long-criminal-record) Post also has repeatedly violated his probations, and this time fled after the accident. "Troopers found drug paraphernalia and a knife inside of the Audi, according to Connecticut State Police. Witnesses told authorities that three people inside of the vehicle had gotten out after the crash and ran away...His GPS ankle device had been tampered with, he had pills that tested positive for fentanyl and had more than $4,000 in cash on him."(https://www.wtnh.com/news/connecticut/new-london/serious-injuries-reported-after-griswold-crash)
Based on all of Post’s prior convictions, violations of probation, and ostensible drug use, why was this man free to be allowed to murder this 96-year-old innocent woman by his vehicle? In a stark, staring testimony to the total lack of professionalism and integrity of the administrative state in Connecticut, how is it even possible that he maintained his driver's license? Why was he walking free in numerous violations of his probation? These questions need to be answered immediately, if not sooner.
It is evident that the Connecticut Democrat Party and its assorted facilitators and enablers have little to no concern whatsoever about public safety in the state. Spending just a few minutes driving on a state highway, or in any of the sparkling cities and inner-ring suburbs in Connecticut will tell anyone that. Connecticut is at such a state of disaster that even a prominent state legislator referred to it this past week as a “laughingstock”. Where no real and productive job creating business would ever venture to come into the state, we are instead treated to The Unaccountable’s self-serving visions of “Innovation Clusters” benefiting his family interests. But none of that matters, as more weighty issues concern the left like lowering the prison population and making everyone unsafe except for the career criminals and crime gangs that roam freely in the state as they are now coddled and protected by the left. Car insurance costs on the state have skyrocketed due to the constant theft of vehicles in the state and the abysmal traffic enforcement on state highways and roads. Juvenile delinquents roam free to steal with no fear of any type of legal action due to the dysfunctional and defective state legal system that apparently will not prosecute them. Retail store costs of shoplifting continue to climb with costs being passed on to you and I as legitimate customers. Blatant crime exists with thefts of anything and everything in the state, from being held up while trying to put your groceries in your car, from pumping gas, and even now with you a law-abiding citizen sitting in your home being at risk of intruders breaking in.
One can only hope that Degrado family takes all possible legal avenues against the state judicial system, its judges, probation officers, defense lawyers and state elected officials to expose and hold them liable for their actions for the death of their family member. Yes, it is high time that our highly paid and serially unaccountable Connecticut administrative system hold responsibility as well along with the criminal in this case for their careless and negligent attitude in handling this career criminal. Yet another innocent life is lost due to the crime spree that exists in "Crime Free Democrat Connecticut", for no reason at all except for the stupidity of a politically correct non-functioning judicial system. A system that helps to buy votes evermore for a horrific social experiment that is now at a point of no return to a once proud and productive state, called Connecticut.
