'Under Connecticut law, voters who belong to a political party must wait three months after changing their party affiliation before they can vote in their new party's primary. This does not apply to unaffiliated voters, who can enroll in a party and gain voting rights in that party immediately, as long as they have been unaffiliated for at least three months,' according to the office of the Secretary of the State. 'In every town that has a primary, the September 9 election will be preceded by six days of early voting from September 2-7. Monday, September 1, is exempt from the early voting window because it is a state holiday,' according to the office of the Secretary of the State. 'In Connecticut, only registered members of a political party can vote in that party's primary. Voters who want to participate in a primary different from the party they belong to now must update their party affiliation by June 9.'

Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem says "we're not going to let a repeat of 2020 happen" amid L.A. crackdown

Kristi Noem says "we are not going to let a repeat of 2020 happen" amid L.A. crackdown Department of Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem said Sunday that the administration won't allow a "repeat of 2020" to occur after President Trump called for the National Guard to enforce order in the Los Angeles area amid protests over activity by Immigration and Customs Enforcement officers. "We're not going to let a repeat of 2020 happen," Noem said on "Face the Nation with Margaret Brennan," referring to the unrest in Minneapolis following the killing of George Floyd. At the time, Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz made the controversial decision to deploy the state's National Guard amid the 2020 riots in Minneapolis, but Noem on Sunday criticized Walz for what she said were "very bad decisions," claiming he "let his city burn for days on end." Mr. Trump also deployed the National Guard in June 2020 to Washington, D.C, to quell protests. And as California's Democratic Gov. Gavin Newsom urged that the state had things under control after protests broke out in L.A. in reaction to ICE operations in recent days, Noem claimed Newsom "has proven that he makes bad decisions." Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem on "Face the Nation with Margaret Brennan," June 8, 2025. CBS News "The president knows that [Newsom] makes bad decisions, and that's why the President chose the safety of this community over waiting for Gov. Newsom to get some sanity," Noem added. "And that's one of the reasons why these National Guard soldiers are being federalized so they can use their special skill set to keep peace." Mr. Trump signed a memo Saturday using Title 10 authority to order the deployment of at least 2,000 National Guard troops to Los Angeles County following clashes between immigration authorities and demonstrators in Paramount, California, and large-scale protests elsewhere in the county. It marks the first time since 1965 that a president has "sent troops into a state without a state request," said Elizabeth Goitein, senior director of the Brennan Center's Liberty and National Security Program. Newsom claimed in a post on X that the move by the Trump administration was "purposefully inflammatory and will only escalate tensions," adding that "there is currently no unmet need." "The federal government is taking over the California National Guard and deploying 2,000 soldiers in Los Angeles — not because there is a shortage of law enforcement, but because they want a spectacle," Newsom said in another post, adding "Don't give them one." The California governor called Mr. Trump and the two spoke for about 40 minutes Saturday night, a spokesperson for Newsom told CBS News. Noem said the National Guard soldiers being engaged Sunday are "specifically trained for this type of crowd situation" and will "provide safety around buildings and to those that are engaged in peaceful protests, and also to our law enforcement officers so they can continue their daily work." "They're there at the direction of the president in order to keep peace and allow people to be able to protest, but also to keep law and order," Noem said, adding that "unfortunately, we've seen some violent protests happen, and that's why these National Guard soldiers are being utilized to help with some security in some areas." Meanwhile, Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth said Saturday that "if violence continues, active-duty Marines at Camp Pendleton will also be mobilized," adding that "they are on high alert." On the issue of sending in active-duty military personnel to police a domestic disturbance, Noem said she's hopeful "that we work with local leaders that would do their jobs," saying in L.A., the mayor "has refused to recognize the dangerous situation that she's perpetuating." Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass told KCAL late Saturday that she is "confident in our law enforcement partners here in Los Angeles, that we can handle the situation" saying "there is no need for 2,000 National Guard troops." When pressed on the idea of sending U.S. troops, Noem said "ICE and Homeland Security are running these operations right now," while noting that Mr. Trump "makes the decisions." Sen. Amy Klobuchar, a Minnesota Democrat who also appeared on "Face the Nation" Sunday, defended the ability of governors to "make their own decisions based on the situation." "When you look at where the American people are, they want to make sure you follow the law and that there's due process, and you don't want to inflame things by threatening to bring in the Marines or deporting people based on a mistake," Klobuchar said. The developments come as a new CBS News poll, conducted just prior to Saturday's protests in L.A., found that more than half of Americans approve of the Trump administration's deportation program, though large percentages of Americans continue to say it is not acceptable if legal residents are mistakenly deported as part of the program.

ABC News suspends correspondent over X post attacking Trump, Stephen Miller

ABC News on Sunday suspended a senior correspondent following a since-deleted social media post where he criticized White House deputy chief of staff Stephen Miller and President Trump. Shortly after midnight on Sunday, senior national correspondent Terry Moran wrote on X that Miller is "richly endowed with the capacity for hatred." Moran continued, "He's a world-class hater." Moran also lambasted Mr. Trump, claiming his hatred is "only a means to an end, and that end [is] his own glorification." The post was removed early Sunday morning and Moran has not publicly said anything since. An ABC News spokesperson confirmed that the news division suspended Moran pending further evaluation of the incident. "ABC News stands for objectivity and impartiality in its news coverage and does not condone subjective personal attacks on others," the spokesperson said in a statement to CBS News. "The post does not reflect the views of ABC News and violated our standards." The White House went on the offensive against Moran on Sunday, with press secretary Karoline Leavitt responding to Moran's comments, Sunday, calling it "unhinged and unacceptable." Miller posted on social media that Moran's "full public meltdown" shows that the "privileged anchors and reporters narrating and gatekeeping our society have been radicals adopting a journalist's pose." Vice President JD Vance also weighed in, calling Moran's post a "vile smear" on Miller and that it is "dripping with hatred." "As it happens, I know Stephen quite well," Vance continued. "And he's motivated by love of country. He's motivated by a fear that people like Terry Moran make rules that normal Americans have to follow, but well connected people don't." In April, Moran interviewed Mr. Trump in the president's first major broadcast appearance in his second term. Moran has been with ABC News since 1997, and has covered the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks and the Iraq war. In December 2024, ABC News settled a defamation suit with Mr. Trump, agreeing to contribute $15 million to his presidential foundation and museum. The lawsuit, brought on by Mr. Trump, accused anchor George Stephanopoulos of acting with "malice or with a reckless disregard for the truth," for incorrectly reporting that a jury found Mr. Trump liable for rape in the E. Jean Carroll case, rather than sexual abuse. Mr. Trump is also suing CBS News accusing the news organization of election interference for "deceitful" editing of a "60 Minutes" interview with Vice President Kamala Harris during the 2024 campaign. CBS News calls the claims "false. "
