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.

Gosh, hope you can help him get reapproved!!!
After WWII the fascists were hunted down and hanged. Food for thought.
Agree with Mr. Spillman, although hanging is out of style since Lonesome Dove. I am in mourning over the loss of the Reiners. However I am encouraged by trump’s comments. Proves that we can function at least for a while with totally goofy people, supporting totally goofy people. We the people will win thanks to our COMMON DEFENCE. thanks
The Trump 2.0 Team during this current war which requires the unconditional surrender of the 1979 Islamic Revolution – STRIKE 3 YOU’RE OUT. It’s called “Blow Back” which the Neo Con opposition so conveniently ignores 9/11. Remember the 2016 GOP Primaries where Trump swept the Neo Con Jeb Bush wimp floor with the reminder of the Bush II invasion of Iraq which did not attack the US, had no weapons of mass destruction. In the lead-up to the invasion, Neo Con Tucker Carlson vocally supported the Cheney/BushII invasion of Iraq. He argued that the U.S. needed to remove Saddam Hussein.
Colonel Lawrence Wilkerson served as the Chief of Staff to Secretary of State Colin Powell during the lead-up to the Iraq War.
Assimilated Jeffrey Sachs, who married a non Jewish woman – the two primary conditions by which the T’NaCH and Talmud define 2nd Sinai commandment – avoda zara – framed U.S. strategies in WWII, including the bombings of Dresden and Tokyo, within a context of total war where large-scale civilian casualties justified as “regrettable but necessary”. In stark contrast, Sachs condemns Israel’s military actions following the October 7, 2023 surprise attack massacre of over 1200 Israelis murdered in one day and two year torture of Israeli hostages held in Hamas tunnels as a violation of “international law”, where he unilaterally decided that Israel deliberately targeted civilians.
