@SenBlumenthal Just wondering: Did you put out such a statement after Biden's strikes on Syria and Yemen, which also did not include Congressional pre-authorizations?
@jahimes Yet, in a CBS interview four years ago, you said it was "smart" for President Biden to bomb Iranian-backed militia in Syria. And this was done without any Congressional authorization! Are you being inconsistent or political, Mr. Congressman?
@MattLesser@UConn Maybe Tom Ritter and Sanford Cloud will be asked? And former President now gets $336,000/year, and doesn't even have to teach a single class this semester???
@GStephanopoulos In his speech, Biden claimed he "planned for every contingency." If that were true (contra to his assertion last month that Taliban would take over against strong Afghan army), what were his "contingencies" taken to avoid the chaos we saw at Airport and leaving allies behind?
@CTDems@DebraMessing@MomsDemand @AlexisGevanter That apparently referred to another Saturday post by Messing in which she re-tweeted a story about an Alabama church that had erected a sign reading, “A black vote for Trump is mental illness.”
Messing has since deleted that re-tweet.
@CTDems@DebraMessing@MomsDemand @AlexisGevanter On Monday (14 December), Debra Messing defended a tweet from last week where she wrote that she hoped President Donald Trump would be the "most popular boyfriend" in prison.
@MattLesser@IRISCT@POTUS Q Is a Taliban takeover of Afghanistan now inevitable?
THE PRESIDENT: No, it is not.
Q Why?
THE PRESIDENT: Because you — the Afghan troops have 300,000 well-equipped — as well-equipped as any army in the world — and an air force against something like 75,000 Taliban.
@MattLesser@IRISCT Fortunately, @POTUS Biden has spoken to this: "we can guarantee their (Afghan translators) safety, if they wish to leave, by taking them to third countries and/or, while the wait is taking place... to be able to bring them back to the United States"

@jaketapper@CNN is Crazytown: an anchor who receives privileged information from the Executive Office of the Governor, gives political advice and strategy to the Governor, yet does not report on this major story. #MostTrustedName?
The same forces working on @AlexisGevanter's campaign are working for Governor Gavin Newsom in California (where Alexis used to live). @CTGOP_Rapid@ryanfazio
@Acosta Call new variants after politicians? How about calling "journalists" who fail to properly cover the news, after receiving privileged information and advising politicians about political strategy the following: "Chris Cuomo"? @CNN
@Matt_Blumenthal The Sackler family, which contributed to political campaigns of Sen Blumenthal, Sen Murphy, Jim Himes, Democrat Atty Generals and CT Democratic Party.
@jahimes "Alfredo Rivera" does not work for Frontier. It is fake news. Sort of like the notion that Taliban would do anything but attempt to take over Afghanistan and behead those who helped Americans, given current Administration policy.
@ChrisMurphyCT It is amazing how many naive politicians actually believe Iranians would have ever lived up to an agreement. If it were so good for US, why not put it up to Congressional vote? Now, Iranians target American soldiers and Israeli ships.
@ryanfazio@ctnewsjunkie@SenMurphysMole@CTSenateDems tweet touting "fact" that there are fewer arrests for auto thefts. However, actual thefts hit bottom (at about 6,000) in 2019, and risen since. Fact that anti-police legislation has helped to reduce arrests shouldn't be touted. Rising crime is still a problem!
@Andy_Ed_Brown@CTSenateDems Census figures show that South Carolina population growth was +10.7% between 2010 and 2020. Better than Connecticut's +0.9%. Indeed, that's what you get when going from least unionized (SC) to most unionized (CT) state. @CTGOP_Rapid
