Not just dumb, but a deliberate liar. Amazingly, CNN calls her on it

Name Game: Dem Jasmine Crockett’s Two Epsteins Debacle Ends in a Dumb Double Down on CNN

Jeffrey Epstein donated money to Republicans. Well, not THE Jeffrey Epstein, but someone who shares the same name. That didn’t stop Democrat Jasmine Crockett from lying and trying to pass off one Epstein for the other. She got caught and called out for it. So, of course, she is now doubling down on her lie.

Here’s more.

Jasmine Crockett makes an absolute fool of herself when she is asked to correct the record about accusing Republicans of taking donations from a different Dr. Jeffrey Epstein:

"That is specifically why I said *a* Jeffrey Epstein. Just because it wasn't the same one, that's fine... Have I dug in to find out who this doctor is? I have not."

It’s my understanding that the foulmouthed Congresswoman is being coached in how to speak to her base by an expert, Senator “What we’ve already seen is immensely incriminating. Clearly, Donald Trump was at the center of a child sex ring” Chris Murphy.

Governance of the people, by the judiciary, for the friends of the judiciary

“Now we are engaged in a great civil war that government of the people, by the people, for the people, shall not perish from the earth.”

Or, as Yeats asked, “what rough beast, its hour come round at last,. Slouches towards Bethlehem to be born?”

60 Meadow Drive, listed at $5.950 million, sold for $6.409. Busy day for Ellen Mosher, who not only came up with these buyers (from the Upper East Side), but also the buyer for 579 Indian Field Road, which also closed yesterday, at $40 million.

(Ann Simpson, Heather Platt were the respective listing agents, so they won’t be worrying about another suspension of SNAP payments, either. )

Oh, hell — this will just free up the old dears to stage more “Release the Files” and “Save the East Wing” protests at their nursing homes

Frustrated residents complained that the “popping” sound of the sport —  which has spiked in popularity in recent years, especially among retirees  — has been echoing through the seaside community and driving them nuts, according to sfgate.com.

Where was this midget's concern for Epstein's victims during the Biden reign? UPDATE: Freudian slip, bad hearing or did he just get tired of hiding the truth?

I: AI Overview

Prior to 2025, there is

no public record of Senator Chris Murphy commenting specifically on the release or contents of the Jeffrey Epstein files. 

News reports and public statements regarding Chris Murphy and the Epstein files all occurred in November 2025, when the release of the documents became a major political issue in the U.S. Congress. In 2025, Murphy made several statements urging the release of the files and criticizing Donald Trump's perceived efforts to obstruct their disclosure. 

CT politicians, activists seek release of Epstein files as Congress OKs bill. 'It's time for truth'

“He wouldn’t be acting this way if he wasn’t so deeply worried about what sits in those files. What we’ve already seen is immensely incriminating,” Murphy said. “Clearly, Donald Trump was at the center of a child sex ring.”

Murphy’s gang had control of those files for four years, yet with all their digging for dirt on Trump, all their prosecutions, impeachments and investigations into his invented crimes, they saw no need to look into these records until now?

Murphy makes me sick.

UPDATE:

June contract, November closing

17 Highview Avenue, Old Greenwich: listed at $3.895 million, sold for $4.610.

The sales report shows the buyers as coming from Riverside, but I have to believe they were NYC apartment dwellers recently, and missed that Gotham ambience:

In a comment to an earlier post, the Mickster summed up this situation niceley:

BTW, after seeing 17 High view in OG go for almost 20% over ask at $4.6m I now finally give up on estimating price. Spring is going to be feeding frenzy.

Climate activists protest gas expansion projects in Lamont’s office

Around 30 activists in neon pink T-shirts gathered around Gov. Ned Lamont’s office on Monday afternoon, singing “This Little Light of Mine,” to protest his support for new methane gas construction in Connecticut.

The protest was organized by a new coalition calling themselves Don’t Destroy Our Future, a group organized for the sake of this protest by members of climate justice groups including Sunrise Movement Connecticut, Third Act and Interreligious Eco-Justice Network. 

Activists called for Lamont to deny permits for new projects expanding natural gas usage in Connecticut. They argued that these buildouts contradict the state’s goal of achieving net-zero carbon emissions by 2050, a target Lamont signed into law earlier this year.

Claudia Allen, a 79 year-old Thompson resident, said she felt a generational responsibility to be arrested for the first time in her life, because she doesn’t have the same career considerations as young people.

“I really feel that my generation has to make the right decisions in order for [the younger] generation to have a livable future,” she said. “It’s really all about the young people for me.”

Most of the protesters were around her age. Two of the arrested protesters walked with canes, and one had been arrested protesting the Vietnam War.

Lamont, a Democrat, has long expressed an openness to natural gas as a means of keeping energy prices in check while reducing emissions from older, dirtier forms of power such as oil and coal.

In July, his administration gave tentative approval to a plan to expand the capacity of the existing Iroquois Pipeline by building a series of compressors capable of pumping an additional 125 million cubic feet of gas each day through the pipeline. The decision angered both environmental activists as well as local residents in Brookfield — the town where the compressors will be built — who have raised concerns about the pipeline’s proximity to a nearby middle school.

The Department of Energy and Environmental Protection has yet to issue a final permit for the Iroquois project, which is scheduled for an informational public hearing in January. 

A spokesperson for the Iroquois Pipeline did not respond to a request for comment Monday.

During his state of the state address in January, Lamont urged lawmakers not to “rule out natural gas” as a way of addressing the state’s spiking energy costs, despite concerns about methane and other greenhouse gas emissions.

Connecticut, like most of its New England counterparts, relies on natural gas to produce the majority of its electricity. In addition, more than a third of the state’s homes are heated with natural gas during the winter.

“We bring in very inexpensive natural gas from Pennsylvania, but that pipeline is at capacity,” he said. “And we bring in [liquid natural gas] by foreign ships, which is more polluting and more expensive.”

Shades of Greenwich Green’s successful fight to install geothermal boondoggles in Western and Hamilton Avenue schools

The Lamont administration has also drawn criticism over a plan to invest $42 million in a new gas heating system to power a network of pipes that deliver heating and cooling to more than a dozen buildings in downtown Hartford, known as the Capitol Area System. 

Advocates had pushed for lower-emission — and costlier — alternatives that would replace the aging gas-powered system with either all-electric boilers or an underground geothermal system.
