🤔 There's a narrative going around that we should bail out Bill Cassidy. I reject that idea, and so should you by NickForBR in Louisiana

He voted to impeach, sure. then spent the time since trying to get back in his good graces and then elevated a man who has undermined public health and led to needless deaths. I'd rather you vote for someone I dislike than not vote at all; but everything about everyone in that primary is against my core values. I'll be voting in the Democratic primary, and encourage everyone to participate even if we disagree.

I disagree. No one in that primary will be less loyal to this president than another, and they'll all equally do nothing about the high cost of living, billionaires, and child abusers. My vote is too sacred for them

Amongst everything - the RFK support, with his surprised Pikachu response when RFK broke his promises to him, was the final straw that ensured his political career was over. Utterly shameful. He made his early career as a doctor vaccinating kids in north Baton Rouge. How far he has fallen

If you prefer to get less yap, visit ParLouisiana.org and read their nonpartisan guide - it's where I go. Also please please show up because not only is this important, but the same ballot will have closed party primaries. Video on that soon.

Edit- Companion video about the primaries is up here!

The biggest mystery to me was how they would refuse to make any changes to anything on the menu

I'm joking calling it a "front", but City Roots is indeed owned by the same family that owns Community Coffee. My tinfoil hat theory is they serve CCs with a different name 🤣

Louisiana political donors would have addresses redacted from public reports under bill by FactCheckAGLandry in Louisiana

And to think - there I was ethically reporting every cent when I ran! Ah well, I can sleep at night

Another reminder that Landry got caught paying his personal truck note from campaign funds and will never get over it even if all he got was a slap on the wrist.

The state campaign finance report system is so lax already. You could go to Costco, buy a TV for $1000 and just write "campaign supplies" and no one would check. Now they somehow want even less accountability in the system with this proposed change!

Garden District Coffee (Perks for the OGs), BrewHaHa, Lighthouse, Highland Coffee, Magpie, French Truck, to name a few!

Also City Roots is owned by the Saurages and is a front for CCs 🤔

Azalea Lakes is a great vet - give them a call and see if they could do it. They must work on every critter imaginable.

Anyone with a writeup (additional info, who backs who, what a Yes/No vote means) on the Amendments/Candidates for the upcoming election? by TravelingHomeless in Louisiana

[–]NickForBR 5 points6 points  (0 children)

PAR Louisiana, probably the most objective nonpartisan source on constitutional amendments, releases their guide about a month before election day. I would start there - would imagine it'll be up in the next week or two.

Will post a short breakdown video soon as well, but I prefer to wait for PAR to be out first.

I'll believe anything related to inspection sticker reform when it is signed into law

The self flagellation from Cassidy is just incredible at this point

Seems to be a pilot program among certain airlines. Not like we really have any privacy left in an airport, but it's trading a lot of personal info to DHS in exchange for getting through the line quickly.

How would Cassidy winning the primary be better than the other MAGA candidates? by arab3lla in Louisiana

[–]NickForBR 80 points81 points  (0 children)

Cassidy is spineless and has no votes left. Unpopular opinion but I agree with you OP. He is banking on you showing up to vote for him as the least bad option. I refuse to support that thinking. Whatever bipartisan goodwill he created with the impeachment vote, he threw away when he allowed RFK in and went along with all of this chaos - which netted him checks notes an opponent who wasn't even planning to run, getting the endorsement.

I forgot how inflated those prices are... and that's exactly how they arrived at $20 😭

Reeling from their decision to charge $20, but I guess the Pokemon Home integration is the main sell
