Breitbart: Connecticut Democrats Weigh Bill Allow Crime Victims to Sue Gun Dealers
Connecticut Democrats are considering a bill that would enable citizens to sue gun manufacturers and dealers for the criminal use of firearms, countering federal protections under the Protection of Lawful Commerce in Arms Act. Proponents argue it would provide victims with necessary legal recourse.
Critics, including state Republicans, argue the legislation primarily benefits trial lawyers and does not effectively address gun violence. Connecticut already has stringent gun control measures, and this bill aims to further empower individuals to seek accountability from the firearms industry.
Fox News: 'View' co-host who supported Harris says she made big mistake reaching out to Republicans
Ana Navarro, co-host of "The View," criticized Kamala Harris for focusing on reaching out to Republican voters during the 2024 election instead of energizing the Democratic base, particularly Black and Latino voters. She praised Illinois Governor JB Pritzker for his approach to mobilizing support against Republicans.
Pritzker urged Democrats to punish Republicans at the ballot box and emphasized the need for a strong, united front against what he described as cruelty. Former Biden press secretary Jen Psaki echoed Navarro's sentiments, stating that Harris's collaboration with anti-Trump Republican Liz Cheney was not the right strategy.
