And now, a note on Bill Owens who, until this past week, was the executive producer of 60 Minutes. We’ll be back next week with another edition of 60 Minutes.

Some of you may be getting an error message while trying to access APNews. We are aware of the issue and working to resolve it.

#Bristol police say 15-year-old Kenneth Rivera Jr. was last seen on April 12. Does anyone know where he is? https://www.wfsb.com/2025/04/21/bristol-police-seek-missing-teen/

Connecticut Won’t Sign Federal Anti-DEI Letter, Officials Say #ctnewsjunkie #ctpolitics

The tariff policy changes every ten minutes. What a joke. It’s nuclear grade incompetence that would be laughable except they’re ruining people’s lives for sport. Just shameful.

Jones spent years calling the 2012 school shooting fake. Connecticut's highest court has ruled he must pay around $1 billion to the families.

Avelo Airlines, an airline with a hub at Tweed New Haven Airport, confirmed Monday it plans to work with the federal government to run deportation flights out of Mesa, Arizona. www.ctpublic.org/news/2025-04...

Avelo has no idea the shitstorm they started here. It is indefensible and unacceptable. Connecticut will fight this to the end.

Officials in Avelo Airlines' home state of Connecticut said they would review business deals the airline has with the state, including tax breaks.

Only the beginning of our investigation— because Americans deserve facts about Trump’s destructive bullying, & law firms bending, beckoning tyranny. www.washingtonpost.com/politics/202...

I love paying TurboTax a few hundred bucks every year to figure out how much money I owe the government, which the government already knows, but won't tell me because TurboTax pays legislators to keep the government from telling me. 😻

Geno, congratulations on winning your 12th championship. Here’s a montage of how much older you look now. Love, ABC

Things we have been liberated from: Planned retirements Contributions to our kids’ education Stable pensions Markets for our farm goods Reasonably priced automobiles Full employment What else?

According to the NYT, just 19 percent of Howard’s student body is comprised of Black men — part of a larger, disturbing trend. On my new weekly YouTube series WTH Wednesday, I discuss why young Black men are rejecting college www.youtube.com/live/dzeoedn... (Don’t forget to subscribe!)

If HB7257 is supposed to help the state courts run better, why don’t they homogenize the fee waiver process across the state & set guidelines? Every court is different and some do not go by income. Rockville & New Britain court are examples. Asking as a former court contractor.

They’re not going to get out of this by playing semantics. Sending detailed information about an upcoming military strike on unclassified channels (and even to the wrong guy) is wrong, reckless, and obviously a threat to American troops.

I never want to hear about DEI and lower skills again. The white people who hate diversity are failing upward on main and risking everything to do it.

has Duke ever played an opening round NCAA Tournament game outside the state of North Carolina

Multiple reports of EBT and Debit card cloning at C-Town in East Hartford.

New England handling things correctly except Maine of course!!

With his permission, I'm sharing Dean Treanor's response to Ed Martin's letter:

As the former governor of Connecticut, Dannel Malloy knows that true leaders cannot ignore injustice. It's time for North Carolina to put justice first and abolish the death penalty.

"Failing to act in the face of this undeniable evidence would be a tacit endorsement of a system that has disproportionately condemned Black defendants to death..." - Dan Malloy, former Connecticut Governor. Read more in @ncnewsline.com

I don't know where most people here are from but if you live on the east coast from Connecticut to Virginia then you probably have an ez pass stuck to your windshield. There's a scam going around where the dumbass scammers are texting you and saying you have an overdue bill. Ez pass doesn't text!!!

IDENTITY THEFT IS NOT A JOKE

TOMORROW- Friday, February 28th is BLACKOUT FRIDAY! If you believe we are in danger of losing our Democracy forever, FIGHT BACK! Let's make our voices heard in numbers too big to ignore. JOIN US if you've had it with Comrade Krasnov. 🤬 🇷🇺 #24HourEconomicBlackout

Murphy: "The destruction of our democracy is part of this story ... this is super unpopular, what they are doing. Nobody wants their healthcare to disappear ... so how do you get away with it? You try to destroy our democracy. You try to crush dissent. You threaten members of Congress with arrest."

The freezing of US humanitarian assistance has forced the closure of almost 80% of the emergency food kitchens set up to help people left destitute by Sudan's civil war, the BBC has learned. www.bbc.com/news/article...

Malcolm X was assassinated 60 yrs ago today. See his timeless wisdom on the true meaning of “progress.” “If you stick a knife 9 inches in & take it out 6—that’s not progress. Progress is healing the wound. They wont even admit the knife is there.”
