If you watch or listen to Sen. Chris Murphy speak on a regular basis, first of all, we feel very sorry for you. But secondly, you would be hard-pressed to identify what state he is supposed to be representing in Washington, D.C.
Murphy loves to pay attention to anything and anyone outside of Connecticut. One could be forgiven for thinking that he is arrested Venezuelan leader Nicolas Maduro's representative in Congress, or even Iran's elected Senator. Certainly, Murphy has shown that he cares more about Palestinians who hate America more than he does about citizens of the Nutmeg State. He's even said himself that the people he and all Democrats care about most are those who have no business being in America.
So, you can imagine our shock when Murphy announced today that he was deploying himself to Danbury, Connecticut.
What's less of a shock is that he is doing so to protect illegal aliens, not American citizens living in his state.
This morning in Danbury, ICE was arresting parents at school bus stops.

But it’s more sinister. ICE waited until the kids were on the bus so when they are dropped off at the end of the day, they are alone, scared to death they can’t find their parents.
I’m heading to Danbury.
Oooh! He's 'heading to Danbury,' everyone!
ICE must be trembling. LOL.
I’m going to go ahead and assume this is complete bulls***. https://t.co/uFOu2rXT77

That's always a solid initial assumption when it comes to anything Murphy says.
In this case, ICE has definitely stepped up operations in Connecticut in August and has focused on Danbury for the past few days, resulting in the apprehension of many illegals in the sanctuary jurisdiction.
However, there is ZERO evidence that ICE agents are deliberately separating children from parents at school bus stops.

He won't.
He's just engaging in emotional blackmail and trying to incite another Alex Pretti to attack federal officers or another Renee Good to try to run one or more of them over with an SUV.
Quite literally evil monsters. https://t.co/x5QTF6lDBQ

Yep. That's exactly the response Murphy is hoping for from an unhinged, uninformed AWFL.
Too bad there's no corroboration for Murphy's allegation.
Liar. It happened at 5:45am. No school pickup starts at that time. Murphy you are a disgrace to CT, America and mostly the Senate.
— Ramblin Rover (@grablekelly05) August 26, 2026
Oopsie.
Darn those pesky facts. They keep getting in the way of Murphy's narrative.
Here's a thought... 🤷 pic.twitter.com/z2aPtJ7UBP

What a great way to keep families together.
But if Murphy is upset about this alleged separation of families, why was he so quiet during the Obama administration?
In 2011 the Obama Admin deported almost 400,000 people.
— MAZE (@mazemoore) August 26, 2026
22% of those deported were parents of U.S. born children. That's a lot of families separated.
Some of the children were sent to foster care and never saw their real parents again. Some were deported with their parents.… https://t.co/vVRxhW5IGA pic.twitter.com/VU1uUonKpq
... Thousands of cases of families being separated and it barely made the news.
Democrats didn't care about migrants back then. They didn't care when migrants were dying and being trafficked at historical rates during the Biden years. And they won't care about migrants when a Democrat is back in the White House.
Have fun at your photo op Murphy.
And that's all it is. Performative theater designed to foment rage on the Left.
This sounds like grandstanding… Murph has a handle on it
— John T (@ftebb) August 26, 2026
It's the only thing he knows how to do.
Too bad he can never grandstand for Americans.
Be careful. There are probably some US citizens there.
— Tony Bartlett (@TonyBartChi) August 26, 2026
You might inadvertently help an American citizen and I’m sure you wouldn’t want to do that!
Heaven forbid!
He Chris👋 Stop at their graves on the way and pay your respects. Perhaps you can convince them that the criminal illegals should stay in our country. pic.twitter.com/PjavJvbU2O
— John Lovett (@lovett81126) August 26, 2026
Murphy doesn't even know any of their names.
Holy s***! Someone get him a map to find CT.
— Rangers2027 (@blake5055) August 26, 2026
HA!
We're sure he couldn't find Danbury, or even Hartford, on his own.
Thank you @ICEgov @DHSgov!! Watch out, soy boy is finally in his own state for once and heading your way! I know that will make you nervous lol.
— PurplePookie 💜 (@TrumpGirl71) August 26, 2026
Know that you are hated by this over taxed Connecticut CITIZEN.
We tried to look up the last time that Murphy was actually IN Connecticut, but historical records don't go back that far.
Good job ICE!
— Ran Danburg (@Caveran17) August 26, 2026
Please pick up Chris Murphy and put on a plane to anywhere but the USA!
Now, there's an 'Oopsie!' that we'd love to see.
Awesome, did they get to use the taser gloves, that would be great
— cXm (@cXmspace) August 26, 2026
We can only hope that ICE is saving their taser gloves for when Murphy finally arrives.
Assuming he actually does show up, that is, and doesn't get distracted by a pro-Hamas rally in New York City on his way there.
