>“We’ve got to move on. If Donald Trump had anything to do with January 6th, he should be held accountable.”
I mean, not exactly a strong statement. The clever placement of "if" can appease either side.

They need to address that part of the act, about qualified immunity. Local police forces are being pansy asses about it.
Any profession you are not safe from being sued personally. But it's simple. Don't be a dick, you won't be sued. The police forces seem to think if they look at someone the wrong way, they'll get sued. That's not the intent of the removal of qualified immunity. However the law should be more clearer. What counts as negligence?

>Stefanowski said he wants to spend $2 billion on “giving the average family back about $2,000 dollars.”
>Stefanowski repeatedly highlighted the difficulty people are having paying electricity bills, gas, rent, property taxes, and the like. He said the state should extend its gas tax holiday through 2023 and reverse the diesel tax increase that took place in July, which he blamed Lamont for. He would repeal the highway use tax on large commercial trucks set to take effect in the new year.
Nice things cost money. Stefanowski does not want Connecticut to have nice things. It's austerity, thinly veiled as generosity.
Yeah, pay day Bob cares about saving working families, checks notes, $2,000.00.
How much will his tax cuts save himself? They will cost him nothing; he would not notice if the gas tax was 1000%.
How much will his tax cuts cost the 99% in reduced services, failing infrastructure, and outdated utilities?
The dude is an absolute piece of shit. It's 2022 and centimillionaire Republicans are still tricking working people into simping for trickle-down economics.
What a world we have where they find such gullible voters, all of them certain their own impoverishment is temporary, voting for policies they'll never be wealthy enough to be advantaged by.
Billionaire class floating by our shore on $300m megayachts; CTGOP voters at their 900 sq ft beach houses with a kayak, will fight you for $2,000.00 in tax savings.
Stefanowski and anyone gullible enough to vote for him can eat a bag of dicks. There's no excuse for falling for this shit anymore.
Edit: By the way what is the work he did representing a business in Saudi Arabia?

Diesel tax was put in by Republicans. Not Lamont. This is aggravating

Kevin Rennie: That time I asked Bob Stefanowski with whom he does business
>I drew some inferences from Stefanowski’s claims. If he is not doing business in Saudi Arabia, why would there be an impediment to Stefanowski saying so? If he is doing business in the nation ruled by a brutal regime, could part of the bargain be nobody can know?

Lets see if people will comment and discuss what he actually said in this interview and not what they imagined he says.

lol voted down because I suggest actually reading the article before you comment. Facts mean nothing to the Liberal cult.

The bar is through the floor but at the very least im relieved he isnt an election denier. Definitely against his idea to bring back qualified immunity.
