@KaareJohnson@JeffLandry It’s detrimental to New Orleans to continue to turn a blind eye when it comes to holding its elected officials accountable. Recognize that your pride is standing in the way of progress.
@KaareJohnson@sportsguy365675 “Over the last two and a half years, Louisiana has secured more than $110 billion in new capital investment and created thousands of new job opportunities, reshaping the state’s economic trajectory and positioning Louisiana among the nation’s leading growth economies.”
@KaareJohnson@sportsguy365675 “Louisiana and Mississippi have made massive gains in elementary reading levels, moving from near the bottom nationally to top-tier growth. When adjusted for demographics like poverty, Mississippi ranks No. 1 and Louisiana ranks No. 2 in the country for 4th-grade reading.” NYT
One of the most thought provoking speeches I've seen in a while.
@Miss_Snuffy on how raising a generation to see the world through oppressors and the oppressed is changing the West.
If you don't have time, bookmark it. It's worth every second.
WATCH:
The earth is still cursed today; nor could it be otherwise. The horrors and heinous crimes brought to light in recent days with the publication of Jeffrey Epstein’s files cry out to Heaven for vengeance, all the more so because of the silence surrounding them and the impunity ostentatiously granted to the guilty. Our skies are sprayed with poisons that spill over into crops and aquifers; carcinogenic substances in food; the destruction of crops and livestock for the benefit of multinational corporations’ intensive production; diseases caused by deliberately harmful and sterilizing pseudo-drugs; the imposition of “sacrifices” and “penances” for the so-called protection of our “common home”; the minute control of our every action, no longer under the gaze of God but under the eye of surveillance cameras: all these outrages, the infernal parody with which an elite, intoxicated with power and literally thirsty for human blood, seeks to replace God in legislating, in deciding what is good and what is evil, in declaring its “saints” and its “damned,” in promulgating its “rites” and its “excommunications.” This elite also has its “public penitents,” who are ostracized by the system until they convert to the infernal ideology of globalism.

The government shutdown has focused a lot of attention on the Affordable Care Act. The Washington Post even declared that the problem is that it "was never actually affordable."
The ACA is a story of bad policy and broken promises.

If HB 648 doesn’t become law, we will be sending a horrible message to our children. This isn’t complicated. Our kids deserve to know that they are loved, valued, and perfect just as God created them. #lalege
