This will be a litmus test for whether Lamont cares more about the performative theatrics or the money. Democrats are allergic to Russia.

Lamont doesn't really have anything to do with this. This is a tiny office inside Department of Consumer Protection.
Not sure what the penalty is for failing to disclose a loan. Probably a small fine.

Lamont is who legalized you think they didn't have meetings with these people before he was in office? The Jim beam kid already is being investigated in other states for bribery.

DCP's primary interest in cannabis is protecting the revenue stream and therefore protecting the incumbent 4 licensed producers. Think about why only one oversight action has occurred during their entire decade-plus tenure as regulator. And that only happened because one of the lab directors accidentally told on himself.
Connecticut Dems sure do love their identity politics and theater, though. It's gonna be a tough choice for them!

You seem to have a fundamental misunderstanding of what the DCP is. Only one oversight action in a decade? I think you’re being overly conspiratorial on this in general.
For example.
> Through its Legal Division, the Department enhanced enforcement of consumer protection laws by effectively resolving issues of concern with persons and establishments it regulates. These initiatives included 191 compliance meetings, 37 formal hearings/administrative complaints, 64 formal hearing decisions, 174 Settlement Agreements, Consent Decrees and Stipulations, 28 Assurances of Voluntary Compliance, 12 subpoenas/civil investigative demands, and 0 Declaratory Ruling were issued.

They are like "we reviewed it and there is nothing wrong" now please don t look into Lamonts dealings with the 4 people that got licenses in CT. While we were worried with covid they raped everything they could.
