New Orleans Residents want Landrieu to resign, but here is the ironic twist- it is Landrieu's voting base turning on him- forward to the 1:13 mark and listen to the residents blast Landrieu:

Video attached for fired up residents

Last night, this happened:

New Orleans in danger: 4 of 5 pumping turbines down
Landrieu urges New Orleans to protect property. City not ready for rain. Landrieu pursued taking down statues and national aspirations but neglected the safety of his people in New Orleans.

Check this video out of Tucker Carlson blasting Mitch Landrieu last night

Mitch Landrieu is destroying New Orleans at taxpayer expense. Mitch Landrieu said - "It wasn't crime, economy, education, or no jobs etc - it was the monuments that caused our best and brightest, our people to move from New Orleans- it was the monuments"

Landrieu absolutely did not tell the truth about this task of monument removal only costing 600,000 dollars - it cost 2.1 million dollars. He used public taxpayer money to fund this job without public support. Private funds paid half and public funds paid the other half. How many taxpayers voted for this use of funds. Not one. Infrastructure, crime, education, economic development is not a concern for Landrieu but saving his political career is. Landrieu is probably trying to sell these monuments to recover the expenses. In other words, he may try to sell New Orleans history for his benefit.
Landrieu spends 2.1 million dollars to remove monuments just to extend his political career

Link to 2.1 million dollars spent

Article on Landrieu allowing destruction

Article on Mitch Landrieu contacting terror group ANTIFA to destroy Confederate monuments???

Frank Stewart 1 page letter to Mitch in Advocate page 4 blast Landrieu tioday May 25

Hundreds of years building New Orleans culture and aura. Monuments are the beginning. Pandora's Box has been opened - meanwhile Landrieu is looking for a national job with DNC.

It wasn't crime, economy, education, or no jobs etc - it was the monuments that caused our best and brightest, our people to move from New Orleans- it was the monuments?????

Per Mitch Landrieu

Landrieu refuses offer to keep monuments in Louisiana today on May 22

Landrieu playing politics with monuments May 22

An Open Letter to Mitch Landrieu on May 22


MItch Landrieu - CLUELESS or Manipulative???

Mitch Landrieu - divided the city - continues Landrieu legacy of manipulating

Local News, CNN, MSNBC won't cover this - it's crazy

WWL report on why people leaving New Orleans - no mention of monuments

quote:

Robert E Lee: This is such a sad time in New Orleans history. Robert E Lee was married to George Washington's grand-daughter. He worked with Ulysses Grant during the Mexican American War and became a decorated War hero defending our country. General Lee spent several months at Jackson Barracks to prevent the war from spreading to the City. He protected us and worked hard to keep our city safe. When Robert E Lee passed away in 1870, a former slave of his family did his eulogy. He said "I've never met a more noble man as Robert E. Lee, who released all his slaves more than eight years before the War of the States." Shortly after his death in 1870, New Orleans concerned citizens formed the Robert E. Lee Monumental Foundation to honor his all earlier accomplishments. The Robert E. Lee Monumental Foundation leader, Charles E. Fenner, appointed PGT Beauregard as its First Vice President. It took more than 14 years for the Robt E. Lee Monumental Foundation to raise $39,000 of the $40,000 needed to erect the monument. In January 1884, during a time of Yellow Fever outbreaks, reconstruction, starvation and depression, the 17 foot statue of Robert E Lee was completed and sent from New York to New Orleans by Alexander Doyle, same sculptor of the PGT Beauregard statue. It was unveiled on February 22, 1884 and became one of the new headline tourist attractions of the 1884-1885 Cotton Centennial Worlds Fair in pre-Audubon Park. During his life, Robert E. Lee believed slavery was the great evil of the country and his wife broke the law by teaching slaves to read and write. After the Civil War, Robert E. Lee worked with President Andrew Johnson's program of reconstruction. The Northern States and Barracks at West Point honored him in 1962. Sadly, in the world today many of the middle east history and statues are being destroyed by Isis in the name of progress same as in our country. Make no mistake, Robert E. Lee was a decorated American hero, not a dictator like Saddam Hussein or Adolf Hitler. The final result of removing almost 500 years of combined history of these monuments taken down, has left the outlook of Mitch own Tricentennial celebration bleak and weary. The mayor of New Orleans has divided many people who were working for unity since the ending of Jim Crow in New Orleans. Many of these early Mardi Gras krewe members of Comus, Rex, Proteus, and others were major contributors of those Confederate Monuments erected in New Orleans. Don't be surprised if Rex and Proteus and maybe even Comus reuniting their Mardi Gras Parade celebrations in Metairie or somewhere else. Maybe even Bacchus and Endymion may move out of the city too. Mitch's desire to create a racial division has hurt all of us. New Orleans' deep and rich history has taken a severe blow. Hopefully New Orleans and the entire South will rise again. Goodnight Robert E. Lee thanks for looking over our city for 133 Years. Copied & Pasted

But there's more about Robert E. Lee, the man who put America back together. Lee was the first prominent Confederate leader to swear allegiance to the U.S.A after the war. I assure you that many southerners would never have signed the loyalty oath if Lee hadn't done it first. Don't we all owe a debt of gratitude to Lee? We have a united, peaceful country today because of him.

There's your Landrieu crime family, folks.

Lol at Mitch. Didn't know I was talking to an Advocate reporter on Thurs when I told her Mitch would have an opportunity as a leader to heal the divide, but I thought he would frick it up. I was right.

Give Mitch what he wants, MOVE! I promise you that you can find another great city to live. I love NOLA, but F this pandering BS. If you want to see the Saints play, you can fly in and out in one day.

I loved living uptown on Magazine, but leaving that shitehole city is the best decision I could have made for my family.

When I would go to the ATM in NOLA, I wasn't looking over my shoulder for monuments.

Yeah, nothing to do with the crime and shitty politicians running the city into the ground. Its nice to go to a place like Houston and not see blighted buildings and grafitti everywhere.

Yeah, thinking that removing the statues will have significant impacts on the quality of the city is a bit silly, but the statues needed to go. Having memorials to traitors in the streets is fricking disgraceful
