Jeff Landry won the Louisiana governor's race way too easily

Louisiana Attorney General Jeff Landry had an air of inevitability about him as he ran for governor. But Democrats didn't put enough money behind Shawn Wilson.

See, Angela Walker sounds like a pretty good candidate; I'd pay to see her run for GPUS POTUS and give CWest a good debate; and wouldn't mind her as their VP candidate if CW gets the Green nomination.

Other than that? PSL/LaRiva as a protest vote again.

I'm in Louisiana, which is a deep Trumpster/GOQP state that is about to go full Abbott/DeFascist itself with Jeff Landry replacing right-wing Democrat John Bel Edwards as #LAGov, so my vote nationally is minor.

Louisiana House votes 66-29 for Sen. Stewart Cathey resolution that affirms "the sovereign right of Louisiana to nullify unconstitutional acts of the federal government." Senate already has approved SCR21. https://legis.la.gov/legis/BillInfo.aspx?i=244804 #lalege #lagov
SCR21

How did I not know that #TheLensNOLA has a #podcast? I used to listen to the #LAIlluminator podcast, but it’s been inactive for some time. I’m excited to get more #LocalNews in my ears!

Louisiana officers charged in Black motorist’s deadly arrest

FARMERVILLE, La. (AP) — Five Louisiana law enforcement officers were charged Thursday with state crimes ranging from negligent homicide to malfeasance in the deadly 2019 arrest of Ronald Greene, a death authorities initially blamed on a car crash before long suppressed body-camera video showed white officers beating, stunning and dragging the Black motorist as he wailed, “I’m scared!”

Louisianans are paying more than $2K to get abortions post-Roe, according to abortion rights groups

The cost of an abortion has skyrocketed in the wake of Louisiana’s near-total abortion ban, costing many patients more than $2,000 and forcing them to travel 1,900 miles round trip, according to abortion rights groups.

This is what will happen if Louisiana decides to jump onto the pro forced birth bandwagon.
