Apparently, my not-so-subtle parody of comparing Donald Trump’s perpetual fundraising efforts to our own twice-a-year appeal for support yesterday struck a raw nerve with at least one reader.
While he may be offended at my dig at his orange-tinted hero, I won’t apologize. I’ll just say he needs to take a crash course in tolerance and learn to laugh more. Life’s just too short to go around with your feelings ruffled all the time.
Having said that, I would continue to ask our more rational readers to continue to support LouisianaVoice with your contributions with no expectations or promises other than a vow to follow the money and to report political shenanigans when and where we find them.
To that end, we are currently looking into the baby adoption industry in Louisiana to examine how newborns are exploited for profit by individuals and agencies.
We’re also examining organized crime connections to a state official that we will be reporting in due course.
But all this takes hours and even days and weeks of research, interviews, and chasing leads, good and bad, to get to root of the stories. All that in turn takes financial resources and that is why I come to readers twice a year – not several times a day as is the practice of one former president – to appeal to their generosity.
So, please do what you can to support our investigative reporting by clicking on the yellow DONATE button to the right of this post to contribute by credit card or you can send a check to:
LouisianaVoice, P.O. Box 922, Denham Springs, Louisiana 70727.
Your help, no matter the amount, is deeply appreciated.
