As in the previous two fundraisers, the one making the largest single contribution will win a first-edition copy of Huey Long’s autobiography, Every Man a King.
Long was assassinated in the State Capitol he built 90 years ago. While he achieved many of his goals for the state (better roads, free text books, etc.), he did so in a style somewhat reminiscent of Donald Trump. He ignored laws, he ran roughshod over political opponents and he enriched himself and his allies via his Win or Lose Oil Co. His subordinates were simply unable to hold his machine together with some of them actually going to prison.
But the good he did for the working people of Louisiana cannot be denied. That alone sets him apart from Trump who has done zero to improve the lives of working Americans.
Here are examples of how diligently other media are scrutinizing the Trump administration:
- Jeff Bezos is silencing Trump critics from the opinion section of The Washington Post.
- Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg has terminated fact-checking on both Facebook and Instagram.
- CBS settled a lawsuit with Trump for $16 million – over the network’s editing process.
- ABC settled paid Trump $15 million in the settlement of another lawsuit it could have won.
- Google just settled a bogus lawsuit by paying Trump $25 billion. (The Washington Post capitulated and the other three companies each had applications pending before federal agencies, making their settlements little more than extortion payoffs.)
- Seven separate law firms have promised a combined $615 in free legal services to Trump in exchange for TACO Don’s not blacklisting them. That, my friends, is blackmail.
- Several universities have caved to Trump’s demands to alter the way courses are taught, including changing history and science.
Please help LouisianaVoice in its efforts to keep bringing you the stories the mainstream media continue to ignore. We have no applications pending before anyone and I’m not beholden to anyone for a job. We are small, but we won’t back down or be anyone’s lap dog.

Your support is both needed and appreciated.
