This is a response to the Greenwich Democratic Town Committee (DTC) email dated
November 13, 2026 suggesting the First Selectman, Fred Camillo, should not “shoot the messenger’.
It is unfortunate when an organization, as the DTC has done, attempts to start a story in the middle while presenting only selected facts that tell an incomplete story. At best, this is disingenuous; at worst, it is dishonest.
The story actually begins with actions taken by certain Democrat members of the BOE that were ruled to be in violation of state law. Should there be no ramifications their actions?
Accountability matters. The DTC’s effort to shift the narrative away from the underlying violations only reinforces its priority is scoring political points rather than addressing the conduct at issue.
The real irony is that the very people elected to serve on the BOE, who should be setting a positive example for the children in our schools, chose instead to do the opposite.
