CORRUPTION TAX KEEPS GROWING: Let’s walk through a series of scandals at Lamont’s state college and university system…
Fine dining, car service, fraudulent spending and payments, bloated bureaucracy, and more are costing taxpayers millions while Lamont sits idly by.
Lamont even called the main perpetrator his “good friend��� as he collected $440,000 a year for a no-show job.
And that is just one of several terminations, demotions, and resignations for stealing, sexual harassment, mismanagement, and more on Lamont’s watch.
This is unacceptable. As governor, I’ll end the Corruption Tax and hold our government accountable to students, employees, and taxpayers.
OMG. Deranged man just tried to run over a @TheMaineWire reporter with his car.
The man claims the reporter was "invading people's privacy" by filming a story in public.
This is attempted M*RDER.
🚔 POLICE ENDORSEMENT: I’m honored to have the support of the Connecticut State Fraternal Order of Police and the brave men and women who put on the uniform every day to keep our communities safe. I have always stood with our officers and supported policies that give them the resources, support, and authority they need to do their jobs — in opposition to Lamont’s radical policies that tie their hands. Connecticut is struggling to recruit and retain law enforcement officers, and too many of our officers are being asked to do more with less because of restrictive laws the governor supported and passed.
Gov. Lamont has repeatedly undermined our law enforcement, most notably by passing the 2020 Police Reform Bill despite opposition from thousands of police officers. We need leadership that puts public safety over political ideology.
As governor, I will stand with our officers, make public safety and safe streets a priority, and be the governor our law enforcement community needs.
Governor Lamont gave Kosta Diamantis a promotion and a raise, putting him in a position of enormous authority over taxpayer dollars. Today, a federal judge sentenced him to 84 months in prison for corruption.
Connecticut taxpayers deserve accountability. The Corruption Tax that you’re paying for under the Lamont administration has grown with scandal after scandal of wasted or stolen taxpayer dollars from senior officials in government. In my administration, the buck will stop with me, we’ll end the corruption tax, and make Connecticut affordable.
Connecticut drivers, stay right unless you're passing. Starting Oct. 1, drivers who remain in the left lane without passing could face a fine of up to $88.

💰💸 Connecticut is facing an affordability crisis. Decades of failed leadership, bad policies and one-party Democratic rule got us here. You deserve to keep more of your hard-earned money and pay lower electric rates and taxes. CT Senate Republicans will keep fighting to make Connecticut affordable for all.
A federal judge on Wednesday temporarily blocked the implementation of the key section of a new Connecticut law intended to ban the sale of so-called “convertible pistols.”
