Louisiana Voice

One thing you have to say about Louisiana’s two US senators is that they are near perfect models of consistency.

In fact, when it comes to voting to confirm the Mango Mussolini’s 16 cabinet nominees, Bill Cassidy and John N. Kennedy each racked up perfect scores of voting “yea” on each one.

On 22 additional non-cabinet posts, Kennedy kept his string intact by voting “yea” on each of those. Cassidy also was perfect but for two occasions when he cast a “not voting” each time—for Navy Secretary John Phelan and National Security Advisor Mike Waltz. Both were confirmed, Phelan by a 62-30 vote and Waltz by a considerably closer vote of 47-43.

Perhaps Cassidy, by at least not voting against the two, he feels he still has a shot at securing Mar-A-Largo Fats’ endorsement for reelection next fall. Yeah, good luck with that after having voted to impeach PEDO-POTUS in 2021.

Regardless, the record for the two Louisiana senators is 72 yesses and two no-votes. That, my friends, is consistency.

It’s also big-time major, if shameful, sycophancy. One could justifiably be accused of loyalty to a person or a political party as opposed to a patriotic duty to an oath of office to put country first before all else.

The tightest confirmation votes involved those of Secretary of De Bottle Pete Hegseth (50-50, with Hillbilly Vance casting the deciding vote), the 48-47 vote in favor of confirmation of Deputy Chief of Staff Stephen Miller and FBI head Kash Patel (51-49). Just think, by either of our senators’ switching votes on Hegseth, they might possibly have prevented his future conviction and sentencing for murder on the high seas.

Miller’s has just got to be the most controversial appointment in the history of mankind. And yet…yet, our two senators fell into line like the Repugnantcan robots they truly are and voted to confirm America’s foremost racist/bigot. (There’s something to be said for anyone who would support that monster but I try to keep it clean so I can’t print it here.)

Also of some interest is the number of wealthy (mostly billionaires) whom Agent Orange has appointed to cabinet and other key positions:

• Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick;
• Education Secretary Linda McMahon;
• Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent;
• Interior Secretary Doug Burgum
• Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) co-head (temporarily) Elon Musk;
• Uk Ambassador Warren Stephens
• Special Envoy to the Middle East Steve Witkoff
• NASA Administrator Jaed Isaacman
• Social Security Administrator Frank Bisaganao;
• Ambassador to Turkey Thomas Barrack, Jr.;
• Ambassador to France Charles Kushner (son-in-law Jared Kushner’s father);
• DOGE co-head Vivek Ramaswamy;
• AI and Crypto Czar David Sacks;
• SBA Administrator Kelly Loeffler
• Administrator of the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services Dr. Mehmet Oz.

With all that moneyed interest floating around, making decisions that affect Americans, whose interests do you really think they represent? Not working Americans, that’s for damned sure.

I mean, a wrestling promoter for education secretary? A host of Fox News personalities for secretary of defense? Transportation secretary? UN ambassador? Ambassador to Israel (Mike Huckabee)? Border czar? Ambassador to France? Seriously?

As for Patel, well, we’re still waiting for him to blink.
