So he's proud of his shitty taste in leased vehicles?
Good for him!

So if BP is paying out 18.7 billion dollars, how much money do they have?
BP's gross profit over the last 12 month's is $38 Billion, just an fyi.

Much like the rest of the majors they are in a bad cycle right now and are cutting jobs and projects. Not sure how much of this was previously set aside but this amount of cash will hurt them regardless.

They should immediately take a few million and expedite the construction of an additional lane or two here:

This won't even go that far if put towards restoration considering the projects the state is looking at.
River diversion ? That's a billion apiece and they are looking at 2-3 of them.
Houma Nav Canal Lock? Half a billion
Calcasieu Ship Channel Salinity measures? Half a billion.
Restoring the terrebonne basin barrier islands? Easily a billion.

Can we at least fix the streets in New Orleans
Break the levees and let the coast have it back. That cesspool would be good habitat forming structure in a few years

Can't we account for all of the 8G money from 30+ years ago?

No, he'll probably just be a good little republican and give it all back to BP as a thank you for being such benevolent job creators.

A ton haha A good friends dad is a big lawyer in NOLA and he worked a bunch on the BP case. About a two years ago he tweeted out "Just drove home and parked my new Range Rover in the driveway. Thanks BP" with a picture of it. Like a boss...
I remember when Chic tweeted that. But, he represented personal claims. A RR is only $100k.
