This POS is the Bill Cassidy of the House. Neither try to hide it anymore.

Votes to expel a solid conservative vote but also votes to not censor a legit traitor like Adam Schiff. He’s compromised bc he accepted bribes from the CCP through Sequoia.


He has a high record of voting with Trump. He voted to deny some electors. He voted against impeachment. He's a big supporter of the oil and gas industry.

His backstabbing of Scalise was unforgiveable as he chose his buddy McCarthy over what was best for the state of Louisiana whom he represents. For that reason, I'm fine if he was the one that had to be sacfificed.

But to imply he is some anti-Trump RINO... the facts just don't justify that conclusion.

Graves was a good Congressman, he however was a bad politician.

I’ve said it once and I’ll say it again…

…Louisiana’s (so called) Republican voters are the dumbest MFers in the country. Pick an elected Louisiana Republican politician from the last two decades and tell everyone what they’ve done (substantively) in the best interest of Louisiana.

I’ll hang up and listen, but leave you with this — opposing Graves will only get more Democrats (or Republican clowns…you know who I’m talking about) in office. JBE showed everyone that a low-rent Democrat can win statewide, especially against soft, vulnerable Republicans.

According to the article, you don't have to live in the district you represent?

I did not know that.

I saw him throw trump under the bus during the first impeachment.
I can’t believe I’m the only one who saw that clip.
I was shocked but my eyes were opened.

You are disparaging a hard-working dedicated, honest, successful public servant, and you wonder why the more intelligent Louisiana natives, including me, have left the state to make a decent life elsewhere.

You morons deserve SWB, Latoya and Landry. You’ll be looking up to Mississippi soon

Graves was team Jindal, anti-Trump, supported Wags for Governor, and backed the former speaker of the house from Cali.

The Johnson is now Speaker, and a team Vitter, pro-Trump guy is now Governor after beating Wags.

Graves backed all the wrong horses, and Landry is an opportunist who has zero desire to build republican coalitions.

Louisiana boy goes to Alabama and doesn't even finish. No thank you. How he ever got elected just for that baffles me but that is Louisiana at times.

There is no residency requirement to run for the US House.
A candidate can run in any district they choose.
