🚨 Pope Leo XIV just declared the Iran War unjust. Called it a war crime. Said it is “not solving anything.” Then told Americans directly: call Congress. End this war. The same Pope Trump called weak on crime. The same Pope Trump fabricated a nuclear quote from. The same Pope whose brother received a bomb threat after Trump attacked him. The same Pope Speaker Johnson lectured on theology. 1.4 billion Catholics heard their leader call this war a crime.

@RocknCliffordLe i am no fan of Blake, but no one bought blake off.

They bought off Blake with a house seat. Otherwise I would’ve voted for him because be was the only real Maga candidate and true conservative in this race, but I’m gonna hold my nose and vote for you. Because to be perfectly honest with you in my lifetime every damn Republican I’ve ever seen in this state was once a Democrat.😡

@StateAffairsLA u mean like legislative district maps before statewide 2027 elections?

Given the rancor around redrawing the U.S. House map that kept senators in session into the wee hours of Wednesday morning, it’s not surprising legislative leaders aren’t talking about which maps — if any — might be next to go under the knife. #lalege pro.stateaffairs.com/la/redistricti…

President Xi to President Trump: "I always believed that our two countries have more common interests than differences. Success in one is an opportunity for the other, and a stable bilateral relationship is good for the world. China and the United States both stand to gain from cooperation and lose from confrontation. We should be partners, not rivals. We should help each other succeed, and prosper together, and find the right way for major countries to get along well with each other in the new era."

@bjeansonne was it not increased from its original status?

Louisiana’s temporary sales tax is now 10 years old, they grow up so fast.

@skooks 2 hours and 40 minutes on price’s bill and they still going.

Price's map is exactly what the Republicans making the post-racial argument claim they want. Racially balanced, almost to the point of being neutral, geographically sensible. The only reason they will reject this is it gives Black Democrats a fair shot at 2 seats. #lalege

Two Baton Rouge residents have filed a petition to recall Republican Louisiana Governor Jeff Landry. shreveporttimes.com/story/news/202…

“It’s been over 46 years since the legislators last addressed their own pay. Jimmy Carter was president, and a third of our legislature wasn’t even born yet,” - Rep. Illg You can’t get diverse & quality candidates to run for office if there isn’t fair compensation for the job.

@MelindaDeslatte @alysepfeil Hopefully it dials the temperature down.

@jamiedupree and with the increasing MPG’s of our autos in America, the national transportation fund is inadequate to fund our nation’s infrastructure needs.

The federal tax is 18.4 cents per gallon on gas and 24.4 cents per gallon on diesel. Fun fact: The last time the gas tax was increased was in the 1993 reconciliation bill signed by Bill Clinton. (VP Al Gore broke a 50-50 tie to pass it.)

@JSODonoghue past time

Louisiana House votes to give a significant compensation increase to the governor, other statewide elected officials and legislators in 2028. It needed 53 votes to pass. Got 54. It would increase the governor's salary by $44k. Here's the bill: legis.la.gov/legis/BillInfo…

@JSODonoghue way overdue

The bill would no longer tie the governor and other statewide elected officials' pay to that of public higher education leaders in the future. Instead, the governor's pay would be the same as that of U.S. House Rep. It would go from $130k to $174k. #lalege

Life begins at conception. (Fact) Keep praying to end abortion!

@BayouMamaBears The Louisiana democratic party died in 1996 when EWE left office, he was the last public servant that could assemble the black population along with cajun white voters. His GOTV organization died with him.

Louisiana Democrats made self-serving deals that weakened their own party for two decades. Now, redistricting has forced Republicans to publicly distance themselves - not out of principle, but public pressure stemming from the US Supreme Court ruling. Now the private handshakes that sustained both sides are over. What comes next will be telling.

@HelenaMorenoLA Consider going sit down and visit with Mckenzie Scott. She is always looking for ways to help. She is truly a rock star.
