Murphy is nothing but a traitorous pos. He is an absolute embarrassment to CT, and anyone who still votes for him should be ashamed. He hates Americans and he hates Our Country.

Out of 50 states, Connecticut ranks dead last (50th) in public services spending at under $1200 per capita.

That begs the question, where is all the money going?

It was rhetorical. We know where it’s all going.

@JoeVisconti Tell me why the Ct GOP lost almost every election in the past decade for Governor? Is it because they are basically moderate Democrats ? Do you think it may be time to embrace a more MAGA platform? Is it because the Ct GOP is no different from the Dems ?

🚨 CONNECTICUT'S UNTOUCHABLE DEMOCRAT POWER COUPLE: The Lamonts’ Pattern of Self-Dealing Demands an Immediate FBI Investigation and Full Forensic Audits

For years, Connecticut taxpayers have watched in frustration as Governor Ned Lamont and his wife, Annie Lamont. co-founder and managing partner of the high-powered venture capital firm OAK HC/FT, appeared to blur the lines between public service and private profit.

While mainstream media briefly touched on isolated “potential conflicts” during the COVID-19 pandemic, independent journalists Tony DeAngelo (@TonyDeAngelo7) and Professor Bob Swick (@SwickSpeak) have relentlessly documented a deeper, more troubling pattern: no-bid state contracts funneled to OAK-backed companies, official business conducted on a private family office server, suspicious Cayman Islands offshore vehicles tied to university foundation money, and a network of FOI-exempt nonprofits that shielded decision-making from public view.

These are not ancient history. As recently as April and May 2026, DeAngelo has publicly detailed how the Lamonts allegedly began “scanning and deleting emails” on their family office server covering Sema4, AdvanceCT, Digital Currency Group (DCG), the UConn Foundation’s Horsebarn Hill Investment Fund, and more, right after his reporting broke.

Yet no subpoenas have flown. No forensic audit of the server has occurred. No legislative committee has demanded documents. The Connecticut GOP and legacy media have largely looked the other way. Enough is enough. The people of Connecticut deserve transparency, accountability, and, given the scale of potential public corruption, a full FBI investigation backed by independent forensic audits.

The Sema4 Scandal: No-Bid Contracts, Post-Contract Investments, and $67 Million+ in Alleged Gains

The clearest example remains the 2020 COVID-testing contracts awarded to Sema4 (later rebranded GeneDx), a Stamford-based genomics lab in which OAK HC/FT held a significant stake. State records show Sema4 received approximately $17.2 million in May 2020, followed by an $8.4 million no-bid add-on later that year, with contracts worth tens of millions overall when including prior and subsequent deals. OAK HC/FT had invested in Sema4 *before* the first major contract and, critically, *increased* its investment in July 2020, *after* the state deal was signed and as testing volume surged.

When Sema4 (now renamed GeneDX) went public in 2021, OAK’s stake was reportedly valued at over $66–67 million, according to SEC filings and DeAngelo’s analysis. The Lamonts pledged any family profits would go to charity and claimed none were realized (the stock later plummeted). The Office of State Ethics issued a formal clearance based on recusal and disclosure. But here’s what was never examined under oath: Did the no-bid awards and state imprimatur directly inflate Sema4’s valuation and reputation, benefiting OAK’s limited partners and the Lamont family’s broader wealth? DeAngelo has repeatedly noted the timing, the dollars, and the absence of competitive bidding, all while the governor’s office insisted it had “no role.”

This was not an isolated favor. Similar patterns appear with other OAK portfolio companies, including early investments in Digital Currency Group (which later received state relocation incentives) and questions around AI legislation in 2025 that critics say treated OAK-linked firms more favorably.

The Private “Family Office” Server: Official Business Hidden from FOIA and the Public

Even more alarming is the alleged use of a private Lamont family office server for state business. DeAngelo has reported, with specific references to COVID-era communications, that Ned and Annie Lamont routed discussions involving Sema4 contracts, AdvanceCT meetings, DCG, UConn Foundation investments, and CTInnovate through non-.gov accounts. Recent CT Insider reporting confirms the governor used personal email and phones for official matters, forwarding state emails privately and creating documented gaps in public records.

DeAngelo’s April 2026 reporting explicitly warned that the Lamonts had a “head start” on scanning and deleting relevant emails once the story surfaced. No independent forensic recovery has been attempted. Connecticut’s Freedom of Information Act is meaningless if the governor’s inner circle simply operates outside the official system. This is not a minor administrative slip. It is a potential obstruction of public oversight into how taxpayer dollars were awarded.

Cayman Islands, UConn’s Horsebarn Hill Fund, and Offshore Timing

Layer on the offshore dimension. Annie Lamont’s OAK HC/FT has documented Cayman Islands partnerships and structures. DeAngelo has highlighted the UConn Foundation’s massive “Horsebarn Hill Investment Fund” (a Cayman-based vehicle with an Ugland House address holding tens of millions) and its suspiciously timed investments aligning with Sema4’s IPO and OAK’s stake. Public university foundation money funneled through opaque offshore entities, potentially propping up companies that directly enriched the First Lady’s firm. No state auditor or legislative committee has demanded the full investment ledgers, timing charts, or limited-partner disclosures.

Add the Tidal River Network, a “philanthropic” women’s/minority VC initiative co-founded by Annie Lamont and a relative of former Gov. Malloy, and Saudi ties via Sanabil Investments as a limited partner in OAK funds. Each layer adds opacity and potential influence peddling.

AdvanceCT: The FOI-Exempt “Shadow Government” for Secret Deals

DeAngelo has described Advance_CT as the Lamonts’ preferred vehicle for routing COVID business and high-level meetings, conveniently exempt from FOIA. This nonprofit structure allegedly allowed self-dealing and contract steering while evading sunlight. Swick has repeatedly tied such nonprofits into a broader “nonprofit-industrial complex” enabling elite capture in Connecticut.

Why This Demands FBI Involvement and Forensic Audits — Now

Connecticut has seen other Lamont-era scandals, including FBI probes into former officials like Kosta Diamantis for alleged no-bid contract steering, school construction fraud, and the State Pier fiasco. Yet the Lamonts themselves have faced zero comparable scrutiny on the Sema4/OAK pattern. The Office of State Ethics offered an opinion, not an investigation. The governor’s office issues denials and recusal lists. Taxpayers are left with unexamined windfalls, deleted records, and offshore vehicles.

While Governor Ned Lamont publicly released his 2021 tax returns in October 2022, revealing an eye-popping $54 million in adjusted gross income, the vast majority from investment and capital gains, the public remains completely in the dark about First Lady Annie Lamont’s finances. Because the couple files separately (“Married Filing Separately”), Annie Lamont’s substantial earnings, distributions, and partnership income as co-founder and managing partner of OAK HC/FT Partners stay entirely shielded from disclosure. This convenient arrangement lets Ned project selective transparency while the full scope of the family’s wealth, and any potential profits tied to the very venture capital firm at the center of no-bid COVID contracts, offshore vehicles, and state-favor allegations, remains hidden from Connecticut taxpayers.

This is not “gotcha” politics. It is a systemic failure of accountability that erodes trust in government. Every Connecticut family struggling with high taxes, crumbling infrastructure, and post-COVID economic fallout has a right to know whether public dollars were steered to enrich the First Family’s venture capital empire.

The call is clear:

* The FBI’s New Haven field office and U.S. Attorney must open a public corruption probe into potential wire fraud, honest-services fraud, and conflicts involving state contracts, the private server, and offshore flows.

* The Connecticut State Auditor and Legislature must immediately subpoena the family server (or what remains), full OAK portfolio vs. state spending cross-checks, UConn Foundation investment records, and Advance_CT meeting logs.

* Forensic IT recovery experts should examine the private server for deletions and backups.

* All OAK HC/FT portfolio companies must be mapped against every state grant, loan, contract, or policy favor since 2019.

Governor Lamont and Annie Lamont have every right to defend themselves in public, under oath, with full documentation. But the era of “trust us, we recused” and “no profits realized” is over. Connecticut cannot afford another decade of elite impunity.

Taxpayers have funded enough. It is time for real sunlight and real consequences if the allegations hold. Contact your legislators, the Attorney General, and federal authorities today. Demand the FBI investigation and audits Connecticut deserves. The Lamont era of unaccountable power must end where every other public official’s does: at the rule of law.
