That's a little conspiratorial. Don't think it is that sinister


I’d agree with you if his track record for making fear-mongering statements off of data manipulation was non-existent.

And I’m not talking about COVID-19.

Gov. John Bel Edwards issued the following statement as Louisiana’s death toll from COVID-19 surpassed 1,000 on Tuesday. At the state’s noon update, the Louisiana Department of Health reported 129 additional deaths, bringing the death total to 1,013. Not every death reported Tuesday occurred within 24 hours, as reporting to the state may take several days.


Hell, he should have stated this as well:

Not every death reported actually occurred primarily from COVID-19

Cases went down
Hospitalizations went down

The text is a straight lie. Any reasonable person can see we are heading in the right direction. Ochsner is pushing the notion hard we are moving in the right direction. DO NOT LISTEN TO ANY POLITICIAN.

However, why would anyone, and I mean anyone, trust JBE not to fear monger when he once had the audacity to say lsu football could be cancelled if the budget he wanted wasnt passed

if there is an increase in deaths that corresponds with JBEs text message, its not fear-mongering, its just reality

My agenda is reporting the facts.

The fear-mongering is making assumptions off imperfect data, as reported by JBE himself.

You said the numbers don't fit an agenda. To make a definitive statement like that, you'd have to know what the agenda is and how the numbers don't fit it. Quit being a bitch and actually say something.

Sure. But that's irrelevant if it's been done consistently.


It can't be done consistently.

Unless it is done purposefully, which is even worse.

Well, that 1013 dead people and their families would say different.
