@jbletlow Is this all you’ve got? You sound like a broken record.

John Fleming is simultaneously serving as Louisiana State Treasurer while working for a Washington D.C. lobbying firm. But he refuses to release records about who his clients are, what work he’s doing, or whether he’s using his office to influence government contracts. That is a serious breach of trust. The people of Louisiana deserve full transparency and accountability. LISTEN ⬇️

@JeffLandry Yeah, that “reporter” is obviously biased. Not even a hint of impartial reporting.

If spreading lies to spark division is your job, you get an A+. And we wonder why people ignore certain news outlets.

@samkarlin Does anyone care? New Orleans “leadership” and been abysmal for decades.

Louisiana's Republican attorney general is threatening to remove New Orleans Democratic leaders from office

@jbletlow I’m going to say it. Election season in Louisiana has been a snooze. Where’s the pizazz in marketing? Where are the jazzy ads? Where are the ideas and policy discussions? @jbletlow and @fleming4senate are so boring they’re nearly catatonic.

🚨 NEWS 🚨 John Fleming admitted he’s working for a Washington lobbying firm while serving as Louisiana State Treasurer. The last thing Louisiana needs is another career politician cashing checks from D.C. lobbyists. READ: washingtonreporter.news/scoop-rep-juli…

@AGLizMurrill Things are getting interesting.

🚨I am demanding the immediate rescission of the New Orleans Clerk’s resolutions, or these officials could face potential forfeiture of their offices. I specifically asked the New Orleans City Council to wait for the Louisiana Supreme Court to weigh in. Instead, they knowingly refused and moved forward with resolutions that attempt to displace Chelsey Richard Napoleon from her lawful office as Clerk of Court for Orleans Parish. There is no vacancy, and no public official should recognize this fictional office or Judge Calvin Johnson’s purported appointment to it. Louisiana’s usurper laws carry serious consequences, and I will enforce them. ag.state.la.us/Article/517

@MRL325i @spencerpratt @Felisa017868351 No, I’m a practical pragmatic person.

vote pratt if you’re tired of human poop on the streets

Nikita, since you’re at X and your posts drive massive engagement, are you personally compensated in any way from that activity beyond salary? For example: creator revenue sharing, performance bonuses, equity/stock appreciation, internal metrics incentives, or another monetization structure tied to your account’s engagement?

I posted 10 AI videos yesterday, reposted someone else’s TikTok, and schedule-posted 4 jokes that went viral in 2016. Why am I not famous yet? App is broken.

@RobManess Why is 50% of the state contained in two districts? Why should anyone in central/southwest LA have any input on local governance in north Louisiana?

Still racially constructed in one? 6-0

@Starlink I'm interested in your ROAM product, but your webchat/ticket submission portal is down and the customer service is.....nonexistent? Grok is sending me in circles. Operator error or.....?

This guy looks GAF, but jury tampering should never be tolerated.

@jbletlow Stop tempting me to run for Congress. I’d enjoy the suspiciously rapid financial success, but I’m too grouchy to sit in a room full of professional idiots pretending they care about anyone but themselves and their politically connected buddies.

John Fleming got rich in Congress. His net worth skyrocketed from $8 million to $35 million in ONE YEAR. Now he’s serving as State Treasurer while ALSO cashing checks from a D.C. lobbying firm. Louisiana deserves answers. julialetlow.com/post/fleming-s…

@CV__Politics @Cernovich Why would they put parts of the west bank with New Orleans? Most of them despise New Orleans’ democrat politicians and policies.

this is just ridiculous. IT’S A TRUMP+22 STATE. 6-0 OR BUST.

I have always found these radio hosts obnoxious. They give off the energy of pre-teen boys giggling around a toilet after throwing cherry bombs in it: loud, crude, impressed with themselves, and convinced that noise is the same thing as wit. It is not edgy. It is not brave. It is not serious commentary. It is juvenile performance art for people who mistake provocation for insight.

A lot of people have been asking us why we've never interviewed Louisiana senate candidate John Fleming. We booked him months ago and he blew us off. Today he finally called into the show - here's the interview! spreaker.com/episode/john-f…

@RepJuliaLetlow @LAGovJeffLandry x.com/ladycurmudgeon…

Meta’s new data center coming to Richland Parish will be a game changer for Northeast Louisiana. @LAGovJeffLandry deserves credit for securing this huge investment that will create jobs for our people. Louisiana is open for business! knoe.com/2025/06/25/gov…

Why is melanin production a factor at all? Districts should be built around communities: shared roads, schools, economies, industries, culture, geography, and local needs. People deserve representatives who understand the actual communities they live in, not maps engineered around demographic formulas. Yes, voting rights matter. No one’s vote should be diluted, packed, cracked, or ignored. But the answer cannot be to reduce citizens to skin color and then pretend that is representation. A fair district should ask: What community is this? What do these people share? What problems do they need solved? Who can represent them effectively?

Liberal Justice Sonia Sotomayor is FURIOUS after the Supreme Court greenlit Alabama’s redistricting move, which eliminates one of the state’s majority-Black districts. 
“Alabama violated the Fourteenth Amendment by intentionally diluting the votes of Black voters in Alabama,” she wrote in her dissenting opinion.

I will not vote for anyone who relies on name-calling instead of substance. I don’t care whether the insult is “libtard,” “fascist,” “racist,” or anything else. If you cannot explain your platform, defend your record, and make your case without name-calling, you aren’t serious enough to be in government.

They drag out the “fascism” and “racism” tropes like tired lawn furniture on a cloudy day. Why? Because they have nothing to offer and are terrified they won’t be able to steal our tax dollars anymore.

Why would anyone take Meta’s word for it? “Trust us” is not public policy. It is how rural communities get handed the risk while corporations get handed tax breaks and politicians get handed ribbon-cuttings. Meta calls the Richland Parish data center a “game changer.” Fine. Game changer for whom? For Meta, obviously. For Entergy, obviously. For politicians looking for a headline, obviously. But for the people who live on the aquifer, pay the utility bills, and drink the water, the question is much simpler: who protected us before this deal was sold to us? We are now learning about enormous water demand, new power plants, tax exemptions, carbon capture promises, and regulatory shortcuts after the celebration already happened. That is not transparency. That is a sales pitch with consequences. And @jbletlow does not get to act like an ordinary bystander. She sits on the House Appropriations Subcommittee on Energy and Water Development. Her position exists precisely because energy and water decisions require scrutiny before communities are locked into them. She had access to experts. She had access to data. She had access to questions most residents did not even know to ask. So the issue is not whether Meta’s press release sounded good. Of course it sounded good. That is what press releases are for. The issue is whether our representative did the hard work before she helped sell it. Because cheering is easy. Oversight is the job. @LAGovJeffLandry @fleming4senate

Game changer for who? When Meta announced a $10 billion data center coming to Richland Parish, most of us thought it sounded like a good thing. Billions in investment. Jobs. Louisiana open for business. We didn’t know what we didn’t know. We didn’t have access to the research showing what data centers do to local water supplies. We didn’t know what was happening in other states. We didn’t know Meta was permitted to draw 23 million gallons of water a day and may contaminate the water supply. We didn’t know about the tax exemptions, the electricity demands, or the CO₂ injection happening in the same geology underneath. But Julia Letlow did — or she should have. She sits on the House Appropriations Subcommittee on Energy and Water Development. That committee exists precisely to evaluate whether projects like this are safe for the communities receiving them. She has access to experts, to data, to briefings that ordinary Louisianans don’t have. The question isn’t whether Meta is a disaster. The question is whether she did her job before she started cheering.

@Kristine_Froeba No. Louisiana’s drainage infrastructure is a joke regardless of who the puppet in office happens to be.

Does it even matter???

@TeamTrump @badger397778 @SenateGOP She’s been endorsed, but there’s speculation that Trump wasn’t aware Fleming was running, and he’s been notably quiet about her recently. It’ll be interesting to see whether the endorsements shift if the race heads to a runoff.

Julia Letlow is a Trump-endorsed patriot ready to represent all of Louisiana in the @SenateGOP. 🇺🇸 This Saturday, May 16, give RINO Bill Cassidy the BOOT and ELECT JULIA! SHE WILL NEVER LET YOU DOWN (UNLIKE BILL!).
