Hey, Bluesky! We're the Norwalk Democratic Town Committee.

We represent beautiful Norwalk, Connecticut, a coastal city in Fairfield County.

We believe in strong schools, good paying union jobs, cost affordability, a clean environment, and equal rights for all.

If you're with us, give us a follow!
Not only is this vindictive and terrifying, but it's also stupid. Why would anyone want all of our newly college educated working and middle class graudates to be stuck in debt?

These people are our future nurses, teachers, and engineers. We have to lift them up, not screw them over.

Everyone knows that the Trump Administration is filled with morons.

It's the people pulling the strings of the morons that you should really be worried about.
Elon Musk's SpaceX is the frontrunner to build Trump's "Golden Dome" missile shield.

SpaceX is proposing a subscription service where the government would pay to access the technology, rather than own it.

Experts think the project could cost hundreds of billions.

This administration is anti-due process, one of the most foundational American values. It's absolutely disgusting.
This guy is in one of the worst prisons in the world with no way out and may spend the rest of his life there because, it appears, he has an autism awareness tattoo in honor of his little brother.

Incompetence, pure and simple. This is what happens when you nominate a bunch of unqualified morons to your cabinet
American war planning usually takes place in highly secure facilities. But the Trump administration planned its strikes on the Houthis using a group chat—and accidentally included The Atlantic’s editor in chief, Jeffrey Goldberg. theatln.tc/IuULQFiY
The Trump Administration Accidentally Texted Me Its War Plans
U.S. national-security leaders included me in a group chat about upcoming military strikes in Yemen. I didn’t think it could be real. Then the bombs started falling.

Trump’s Commerce Secretary told people to buy Tesla stock last night.

The White House announced that it will use Starlink internet earlier this week.

And Trump held a Tesla showcase at the White House last week.

The robber barons of the first Gilded Age would be jealous.

CT has another special election coming up!

Mike Duncan is running for the CT House in Shelton's district 113. Nominated on Thursday, he qualified for CT's public campaign financing in 24 hours! That's amazing.

Now he needs YOUR help. Sign up to pitch in, from anywhere: forms.gle/Yyqznv32F5rx...

Both CT Senators are voting NO on the GOP funding bill that hands more power to Trump & Musk and more of your money to billionaires.

Hmmm. I wonder what those mandatory programs that you’re referring to are. Maybe, and this is a wild guess, they’re Social Security, Medicare, and Medicaid?

I can't emphasize this enough: he did this because he was bored.

Donald Trump has no vision for America. He just has a series of bad impulses.
📉 Your retirement nest egg.
📉 Your kid’s college savings account.
📉 Your pension.

Trump is tanking all of them, along with the US economy.

Unlike our state senator @bobduffct.bsky.social, who is consistently engaged with his constituents, House Republicans have been hiding. What are they afraid of?
Thanks to everyone who joined me at my tele-town hall last night. Hundreds of you participated to hear what I’m up to at the State Capitol and in Norwalk/Darien. Really appreciated hearing what’s on your mind.

Listening, engaging, taking questions in different fora make us better representatives.

The wealthiest man on the planet just trashed a program that has lifted millions of American seniors out of poverty. Think about that.

He has literally no idea what he's doing. He's flipping switches in the government because he's bored, and it's having devastating impacts on Americans.
One day he’s telling us that tariffs are amazing because they will bring lots of new jobs to the US and raise so much money we won’t have to pay income tax, then the next day he’s telling us we aren’t doing them because people were nice to him on the phone.

In Donald Trump's America, if you have millions to throw around, you can dictate the direction the country goes in. If you're a working class American, your voice will never get heard.
