...On the hypocritical Democrat John Bel Edwards.
I haven’t agreed with everything Guillory has done in his term, but damnit, well done on your response to the phony Democrat leadership. They are all so full of it.

How about some links?
Guillory is about 0 for 1000 on these kind of things...

They are all so full of it. If his information is correct on the number of citations written, then the Governor needs to shut his mouth. He is correct in saying the State Fire Marshall and the ATC both report to the Governor's office, not to local mayors. They do not answer to leaders of local government. |

Can’t let JBE get away with that kind of hypocrisy.

Can’t let JBE get away with that kind of hypocrisy. The resident liberals are kind of quiet on this. Was anticipating a sparring session. Them aside, I do think Guillory made this as a chess move for future plotting, I mean campaigning... |

Them aside, I do think Guillory made this as a chess move for future plotting, I mean campaigning... I’m not a Guillory fan, but it’s worth pointing out that Josh supported/endorsed JBE when he ran against Vitter. I know I’ll be asked why I’m not a fan, so here’s some of my thoughts: 1. He throws his name in elections until he wins one, grasping for any type of political power 2. He ran on a nearly empty platform 3. One of the only promises he made in that debate between himself, Carlee, and Simone (a rare appearance of his) was that he would deconsolidate the MP position, and give the city of Lafayette its mayor back. (Radio silence on that now) 4. He refused to open shelters in Lafayette for our displaced neighbors in LC after Laura, citing fears of “bad actors” taking advantage of our hospitality 5. The weird continued vendetta against Terry Huval and LUS 6. Calling the police on two people BBQing in front of his house and holding a press conference where he threw a hissy fit that his children had to see two people BBQing 7. He forced his would-be CAO Beth Guidry to resign because she was friends with local Republicans running against his campaign/Lunsford supporters on the RPEC. 8. Previous thought leads into: there’s a local war between Lunsford candidates which are very tied into national politics, and the Lafayette republicans that are more traditional 9. Which brings me to my final thought that he and his allies are nationalizing local politics (not a good thing imo). What are some of you guys’ thoughts on how he’s done so far? (Besides the jab to JBE) Edit: I do like how he sports Cajun gear though |

The only comment I will make is in regards to your point #9. As far as I can tell, Josh did not nationalize his politics regarding the mask mandate, that was done by his opponents and JBE. He simply responded to the hypocrisy of JBE.

(Radio silence on that now) Simone Champagne would have been great for both the city and parish as a whole. Her grave mistake was hiring Chris Comeaux to run her campaign. The combination of that, coupled with the city voter sentiment of not wanting a M-P who was not a resident of the City of Lafayette, equated to her not making the runoff. |

The combination of that, coupled with the city voter sentiment of not wanting a M-P who was not a resident of the City of Lafayette, equated to her not making the runoff. Living in the Youngsville area, Simone was my choice. I've known her for a number of years. Guillory's support of JBE was non-starter for me and his tendency to be a bit of a greasy attorney left little to be desired. This became a national story because of David Begnaud covering a local family's loss from Covid-19 and the unwillingness of people attending the funeral to wear a mask. I found it unbelievable that the funeral home did not enforce the mask, I've attended two funerals during the pandemic and every person out of respect wore a mask. |

If I had to guess, RedTails was probably referring to his campaign that campaigned on gun rights and anti-abortion, among many references to Trump and Guillory's relationship with Rudy Giuliani. All things that are national politics and nothing to do with City politics and how to improve the city of Lafayette itself I think also (and I know it wasn't you that brought it up Duggie) that JBE was just trying to follow the national guidelines that he was told to follow. I don't think JBE wants to have people arrested either, even though many of you are calling him a hypocrite for the fire marshal not enforcing the mandate. I think he was just asking for a cohesive message across La, which the whole country could've benefited from. I don't see that as a bad thing. If he would've had people arrested some of you would be calling him much worse names than a hypocrite. |

That crony from the Tangipahoa Mafia wouldn’t be a problem right now if John Kennedy hadn’t let Diaper Dave punk him to keep him out of the 2015 Governor’s race. |

And if an iniative saves just 1 life, it’s worth it? Are you suggesting that JBE made the right decision by not arresting people, which in turn puts “blood on his hands?” If an arrest mandate was in place, very high chance that would’ve saved at least one life based on all the reports regarding crowds without masks causing extreme number of cases. |
