Elon Musk Is a Deep State Agent, According to Elon Musk Look, we don’t make the rules.

Elon Musk is govt-funded.

USAID spent $3 million on Elon’s Starlink terminals. And the federal govt gave him $5 billion in Tesla subsidies.

In total, Elon’s companies receive over $15 billion in government contracts.

Elon Musk: government welfare queen.

Roger Senserrich explains why Governor Lamont's budget, despite a few good ideas, falls short and does not respond at all to the fiscal disaster President Musk and the GOP are about to create: ctexaminer.com/2025/02/12/n...

If you've ever used the Polity data, read this from Monty Marshall.

tl;dr Polity is coding recent US events as an executive self-coup and an adverse regime change.

Hmm, wonder why CT housing costs keep going up and what we could do about it.

Your daily reminder than by "DEI" they mean "we blame black and brown people".

Trump ties CT transportation funding to immigration, mask policies Trump plans to link transportation funding to policies on masks, vaccines and immigration enforcement, as well as marriage and birth rates.

Yet another completely unconstitutional executive order from the Trump administration, this time regarding transportation funds.

We cannot sue them often enough. ctmirror.org/2025/01/30/t...

Why housing shortages cause homelessness - Works in Progress Why do high-cost cities have more homelessness? It's not just about rents — it’s also about the rooms friends and family can’t afford to share.

i'm tired of being told to stop doomscrolling. i'm just scrolling, it's not my fault there's doom on there

Good news!

(Nerd corner: the added stops will make travel times longer with these slow diesel locomotives. Electrification should be seriously considered).

Senator Osten sounds like she wants to make some changes to the fiscal guardrails.

And this is a good thing! Right now, they are too restrictive and forcing program cuts, even when we have a surplus.

Look, we are not air traffic experts, but I can guarantee that being nice to women and brown people had NOTHING to do with this tragedy.

Appointing a MTV reality star to head the Transportation Department won't help fix this either.

Karoline Leavitt @PressSec This is NOT a rescission of the federal funding freeze. It is simply a rescission of the OMB memo. Why? To end any confusion created by the court's injunction. The President's EO's on federal funding remain in full force and effect, and will be rigorously implemented.

WH Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt just clarified on X that the rescission of the OMB memo was simply to get the federal court case to go away, not lifting the funding freeze on anything that goes against Trump's EOs

This is only of many. The Trump budget freeze is ilegal, against the constitution, and would hurt hundreds of thousands of families across the state.

White House pauses all federal grants, sparking confusion The Trump administration has put a hold on all federal financial grants and loans, affecting tens of billions of dollars in payments.

This is a full assault on Connecticut families-- an unprecedented and blatantly lawless and unconstitutional attack on every corner and level of our government and economy. Attorneys general across the country are preparing imminent legal action to protect our states.

Yes. More on this. Trump has decided that he is the sole decider, and will block and deny funding at whim. The order is lawless, and needs to be challenged.

CT joins states suing Trump over order limiting birthright citizenship Connecticut was among 18 states to sue President Donald J. Trump on Tuesday over his effort to deny the birthright citizenship.

This Executive order is blatantly against our values and the plain text of the constitution. Good to see CT join this lawsuit. AG
