The next excuse is already making the rounds.

NOLA is a world class city, and Teedy represents the city. Therefore, she should fly first class when representing the citizens of a world class city.

Ole baw better stay off the Algiers ferry for the time being.




Why? Is Algiers pro-Latoya? If I had to guess, I would think the voter turnout in that area is pretty low.

Well this guy is fired. Maybe he is setting himself up for a whistleblower suit?

If he takes the ferry, he might just be "jumped off" kinda like how people who know the Clintons just randomly commit suicide.

Yeah, how did her outstanding tax bill magically disappear?

She got it reduced, from what I understand, significantly from the nearly $100K she owed in tax liabilities at the state and Federal level.

She can legally fire him. Question is what he can fire back with if he is no longer working for her.


It would look horrific. Might even motivate folks on the fence with the recall.

I think that the recall may even be strategically a back stop to help protect people like him right now. If she starts firing everyone that talks, people start signing.

Desperation is usually extremely obvious on people


It's a pathetic argument, that she's fragile and more important, therefore she is entitled to have extra luxuries on the taxpayer's dime as she deems necessary. Oh and it is racist to raise ethical questions about her activities. That's what she's arguing, right?

He, or someone in his family, will be ‘car jacked’ within the week.

Like everything else with Progressive Pols, the people they want jailed are the ones who paid it off.

Can you imagine her being the mayor if a hurricane hits New Orleans.

As CAO, wouldn't he be the defacto mayor if she's ousted?? Or is it a councilman?

President of the council, Helena Moreno.

Not coincidentally latoya refuses to say her name in public at this point. It’s quite amusing.

If I had anxiety and was as concerned about my safety as Latoya is, I wouldn't be living in the French Quarter.

Well soon see if he is actually serious. All other employees would have their paycheck docked until it is paid off. I bet good money she’ll get off with an IOU promise that will never be paid.

As I mentioned in previous interviews, I was waiting on the city attorney's opinion on this topic, and now it is clear," Chief Administrative Officer Gilbert Montaño said.

Montaño, second-in-charge under the Cantrell Administration, reports solely to the mayor and can only be terminated by her.

" I will fulfill my duties as the CAO, and it's important that I follow through on all the rules and policies that I have to all other employees," said Montaño.

That’s Helena again and she is certainly serious

Which is why latoya won’t speak her name
