In other Louisiana news, the Governor of Louisiana, creator of LA DOGE, and friend of Trump, Jeff Landry, was in trouble for ethics violations, so he decided that he would just get his friends to change the laws...
So I guess we just won't be investigating ethics violations anymore... That's cool.
Also, I posted this past Sunday about a local election to continue funding that Sheriff Hutson of New Orleans needed to avoid layoffs and pay for programs for mental health and healthcare for the Orleans Parish jail. I was feeling so pumped because it won (by literally 2 votes) despite facing a lot of craziness and disinformation.
The election was Saturday, and came on the heels of the current Louisiana AG suing Hutson, and taking her to federal court on Wednesday in order to force New Orleans to follow a Louisiana state law banning sanctuary cities, which is conveniently just a repackaged federal law. The Monday night before the trial presidential EOs drop that conveniently seem to be making AG Murrill/Gov Landry's argument for them.
BTW, the Louisiana law banning sanctuary cities was actually written by a different LA DOGE member, Senator Blake Miguez (the guy who posted a picture of the secret LA DOGE meetings to facebook, proving they met in secret and violated transparency laws.)
Anyway, like I said, despite all that, I was feeling optimistic after voting bc it felt like a win.
Then this morning, I wake up to find all this local news coverage that an average Joe New Orleanian has paid for a recount of Saturday's vote. He's described as an Army veteran and a Lyft driver, not some wealthy individual with powerful connections. He didn't call for the recount because he cares about the results or anything. Apparently it's simply a matter of caring about election integrity and transparency as a concerned citizen.
So, just being used to the fuckery that is Louisiana and especially the fuckery that is Louisiana in 2025, I decide to just look into this a little further.
I learn this average Joe has filed the recount under an alias (he apparently has several). Not sure why he would do that, but it might have something to do with his connections to local government and multiple previous attempts to run for public office in Louisiana under one of his other names...
TLDR:....Help?
I’m not that opposed to this, China has been buying up land around US bases. The CCP is as shady as can be.
CCP is shady, but come on we all know the USA is the most shady.
Just a vibe check – can you tell me what happened in June 1989 at Tiananmen Square?
People were peacefully protesting the government and then they sent the army and tanks.
I was only a child so I don’t remember it, but what I do remember is the militarised police force in America was sent out to quash anti-Zionist / anti-genocide protests.
I remember BLM where police agitated the crowd to become more violent.
I remember America invading so so so many countries under the guise of freedom.
Err, you only know how shady the US is because those idiots keep broadcasting their shadiness.
The CCP on the other hand does their best to hide how shady they are through censorship and propaganda.
This I believe is more about seizing land from latinos regardless of citizenship status, not the CCP. The CCP is rich, they can carry on.
For 50 miles?!
I am also full expecting the term foreign adversaries to be applied to anyone who doesn't support their immigration policy... Which would be New Orleans... Which has a National Guard base that is the headquarters for the Louisiana National Guard...
Correct me if I'm wrong, but I'd thought that the U.S. Government could seize the assets for enemy foreign nations and citizens during times of war, no? Isn't this redundant?
Times of war yes, but to seize land before you get to that point..
This is a state government, and as far as I'm aware there's been no declaration of war.
In fact, everything is perfectly normal. Absolutely nothing strange about any of this.
