We are the CONNECTICUT Democrats.
The CT GOP endorsed a candidate who LITERALLY wants to execute all LGBTQ people and you obediently support Donald Trump.
Connecticut voters are tired of double standards. Accountability cannot be a partisan weapon; it must be a principle. Until Connecticut Democrats are willing to apply that principle equally, their lectures on morality and public conduct will continue to ring hollow.

NEW AD: Trump said the quiet part out loud—he loves inflation.
Every American should see this.

Good morning. This is your daily reminder that the President has lost total control of the Iran War and thus has lost interest. He now only obsesses over his ballroom and schemes to profit off the presidency while gas and grocery prices soar.

Mike Johnson says Republicans have a plan to cut Social Security, Medicare, and Medicaid—after already passing the largest healthcare cut in history.
Higher costs, less healthcare.
That’s what Republicans are running on this November.

More than 50,000 Connecticut residents lost SNAP benefits since the passage of H.R.1, and it is unclear what the USDA is doing to ensure these families don’t fall deeper into hunger.
Grateful for the actions taken by Gov. Lamont to keep CT families fed.

And he wants to give these criminals $1.8 billion of YOUR tax dollars. This slush fund for criminals must be stopped.

At least 97 January 6th insurrectionists have been charged with or convicted of crimes after being pardoned by Trump.

There were multiple votes tonight to make the $1.8 billion cop beater fund illegal and Republicans blocked every single one, paving the way for Trump to resuscitate his slush fund.

Six Republican senators vote for Cassidy amendment to block anti-weaponization fund and to repurpose it to pay claims to Capitol police injured on Jan. 6, 2021:
Cassidy, Collins, Husted, Murkowski, Sullivan & Tillis vote YES.
But it fails to reach 60-vote threshold needed.

This is the type of candidate that UConn College Republicans support.
The College Democrats of Connecticut (CDCT) call on UConn Republicans to immediately withdraw their endorsement and condemn this disgraceful and hateful behavior.

This is a good idea, @SenatorDuff. And we should invest any revenue into the new fund we created supporting the families of fallen police officers killed in the line of duty. Let's discuss. ctinsider.com/politics/artic…

No excuse? No problem. I just signed a bill to ensure every single Connecticut voter has the option to vote by absentee ballot! 🗳️
We are making voting more accessible, strengthening election integrity, and keeping federal agents 250 feet away from polling places.

Trump's corruption has reached an entirely new level. The $1.7 billion slush fund is just outright theft. And no Republican owes such bind allegiance to the president to defend this.

Trump rambled for nearly an hour about tariffs on Taiwanese semiconductors and running for a third term, but couldn’t bother to stay and actually shake the hand of each graduating USCGA Cadet.

At this point, Fazio tells me he has no plans to meet with President Trump today and there has been no outreach for an endorsement, but he would meet with Trump if given the opportunity

Donald Trump disrespected the achievement of every graduating USCGA cadet in New London today with the same kind of incoherent rant we’ve seen at MAGA campaign rallies.
Will @RyanFazio speak up for the cadets or pretend Trump acted Presidential?

It's hard to keep track of Trump's corruption schemes, but here's the most dangerous one.
Trump is suing the federal government (himself!) for billions in payments (to himself!) and when the courts say no, he tells the parties (both him!) to settle.
Confusing? Let me explain.

On #PoliticsNation last night, I spoke with Ned Lamont about Connecticut’s new legislation aimed at protecting residents from civil rights violations tied to immigration enforcement.
Governor Lamont discussed the urgency behind the bill following the detention of a Connecticut high school student by ICE agents, and outlined new protections involving schools, houses of worship, courthouses, and the right for citizens to pursue legal action when their rights are violated.
We also discussed the climate of fear surrounding immigration enforcement, voting rights, and economic insecurity facing working families across the country. As the governor said, people cannot allow fear to stop them from participating in democracy or standing up for their rights.

Trump’s War costs YOU more, and he doesn’t care.
"Not even a little bit."
Trump on Iran War:
Reporter: What extent are Americans’ financial situation motivating you to make a deal?
Trump: Not even a little bit. I don't think about Americans’ financial situation

Trump makes everything worse.
Remember when diesel went up 9¢? CT Republicans lost their minds about how much it would cost you, the person who never buys diesel. They're quiet about Trump's War, and doubling down on volatile, costly fossil fuels forever
