This picture will end up in history books.
This is the turning point for western civilization.
This is where we reject USA as vassals and choose our own destiny.

People are receiving this and similar text messages, stating the recipient has been selected to pick cotton at a plantation.
The Louisiana AG's Office and the NOPD urge you to report them to law enforcement.
The Louisiana ‘I Voted’ sticker was designed by William Joyce who gave us, among other wonderful things, ‘Rolie Polie Olie’, ‘Rise of the Guardians’ and ‘Meet The Robinsons’ so I feel like our state sticker won for this election cycle.

While inflation is hammering Louisiana families with high gas and grocery prices, Gov. Jeff Landry wants to pile on $1 BILLION IN NEW TAXES that will bury working people and a $0.45 service tax that will crush small businesses.
Louisiana cannot afford new taxes! #LaGov#LaLege
I served as US Ambassador in Hungary during Viktor Orbán’s crackdown on freedom of the press.
But the independence of the Hungarian press was only truly extinguished when news outlets began “self-censorship” to avoid political reprisal.
Democracy dies in darkness.
San Antonio Spurs head coach Gregg Popovich just delivered a truth bomb about Donald Trump: "He's pathetic. He's small. He's a whiner...He's a damaged man."
