Not a band to be outdone, Spinal Tap is demanding that the Trump campaign refrain from playing “Sex Farm” at their rallies.
She’s right
Hawk Tuah girl recently went viral for her rant on the 2017 Astros. "The were 53-28 on the road. Best road record in MLB that year. They scored over 500 runs away, 395 at home. Tell me again how a trash can at Minute Maid helped them win? It didn't. Numbers don't lie."

Louisianans: Have you been offered a surprisingly low rate for home insurance, especially by an unfamiliar insurance company? I want to talk to you: [email protected]
As the #LaLege & #LaGov push to move the state into a constitutional convention, the only proposed delegate to have served in the position before is offering this advice when it comes to the restrictions being placed in the enabling legislation: “Nothing’s off the table once we…
Republicans have controlled #lalege since 2011 and we have absolutely seen the consequences of those elections Interested to see how the GOP narrative shifts with the loss of gubernatorial scapegoat. What will be the excuse in 4 years when we are no better off?
Memo to Republicans in the Louisiana legislature - please vote to kill every single bill brought by a Democrat legislator that doesn't have a Republican cosponsor. The people of this state have roundly rejected their party. They have zero ideas of value in improving this state…
🚨 "Nothing's off the table once we start meeting as a convention," said Boysie Bollinger, who participated in the back room deal that gave us the current constitution instead of the constitution the enabling legislation called for. via @LaPoliticsNow #LaLege #LaGov
Rep. @jordan4justice and @RepJasonHughes make it abundantly clear that protections included in HB 800 mean nothing once the constitutional convention starts. #LaLege #LaGov
There can be no doubt that our current constitution is in need of a diet. But it is ironic to blame special interest for the problem (which is true), considering it is the Deep Pocket Corporate Special Interest who are driving the push for the Constitutional Convention. #lalege
Rep. @MattWillard97 went to bat for teachers today, questioning Education Secretary Cade Brumley about the dire need to raise teacher pay in Louisiana. #LaLege #LaGov #LaEd
You can’t claim to want to reduce violence while refusing to address the root causes of it. Second Amendment rights come with Second Amendment responsibilities. #LaLege #LaGov nola.com/news/politics/…
Happy Easter to the people of Louisiana! Hopefully this year your government will be nicer to you. #WWJD #summerEBT
Lurching through thick Baton Rouge traffic but @SteveSparks37 and @raford3 are on @AstrosRadioMLB All is right with the world. Beating the Yankees. That helps too #Astros
During that #Rolex ad on #Oscars did anyone else think of Christopher Walken and Pulp Fiction: He hid that watch the only place he could, up his ass #Oscars2024
What was the song sung during the in memorium segment? #oscars #oscars2024
The Republican Legislators of the #lalege showing they are just following the marching orders of @LAGovJeffLandry. No independent thoughts, no actually legislating, no debate - just voting how they are told to vote
So much for transparency and listening to experts - this crime session is the prison, punishment and sheriff full employment session- nothing about making neighborhoods safer! Nothing about reducing or preventing crime. Don’t be fooled- nothing the legislature is doing helps!
For the second day in a row opponents (but not proponents) of legislation in House ACJ will be prevented from testifying under a committee decision to limit testimony to one hour “per side.” #lalege #lagov
BREAKING: LA Gov. Jeff Landry To Reject Water System Funding, Says Water Pipes Should Be "More Self Sufficient" #lalege
Sen. Royce Duplessis rightfully questions how a Governor who is so ideologically opposed to criminals can ethically appoint a proper statewide head public defender. Also appoints head of DOC and State Police. SB 8 looks like a ploy to gut 6th Amendment. #lalege
