Meh. Before this new great news, he didn’t seem to be doing anything all that special. I really dislike his coziness with the trial lawyers.

I would still take him over a democrat though and hope he kicks into high gear and gets more economic wins now that the SpaceX deal is for real


more economic wins?? umm 7 of the top 8 projects all time are under him. sure some where planned before but still under him

The costal erosion lawsuit had 40 locations included, that ended up being excluded thru a federal judges rule, like a fart in the wind. Elon is fixing all erosion issues and rebuilding marsh areas and storm protection, because his facilities would be directly affected. Landry closed this deal, Louisiana costal system wins, 3xxon wins, Elon wins...etc etc etc


Killing the diversions planned for the eastern half of the state I think will prove a very, very big mistake. Southeast Louisiana coastal land loss may be irreversible, but stopping it might still be possible. But only with diversions

EWE would have gotten plenty, for himself and for Louisiana. Don’t ever think he couldn’t work a deal.

I loved Mike Foster. Voted for him twice. He appointed me to a state board that governed my profession. He refused to get on a plane and fly to Japan when they were looking to build in the US


When the company which had spent over $1 billion in Calcasieu Parish requested to meet him, he accepted. They flew in from Houston and in suit and tie got to his secretary. Foster came out in a golf shirt and said something to the effect of, "Nice to see you, welcome to Louisiana." He then turned around and went back into his office. My wife's uncle as general legal counsel of Westlake Group was part of their entourage. Westlake did not spend another dime in expansions until Foster was gone. They instead spent over $1 billion in Paducah, KY

Don't really "like" Landry,but you have to give hime props on economic development and starting on getting rid of some of the BS things eating tax revenues in NOLA


I didn't vote for him because of former actions such as attempt shutdown LOUISIANA company owned offshore oil and gas.

So far he has been a balls to the walls great governor.

Data centers and carbon capture is good?


Thanks for showing us that you are a retard.

CO2 has been injected under Denham Springs for 18 years at a higher pressure than for normal CCS. There is a large pipeline for CO2 that comes down from the Jackson Dome, MS straight south just east of Denham the crosses around French Settlement to Donaldsonville then on to Texas for 40 years.

Per Congressional Budget Office, CCS has been in Ascension Parish since 2013 with PCS Nitrogen for EOR. The only difference between EOR and CCS is the phucking well classed by the EPA. That's it. The Denham EOR is about to become CCS with CO2 from Donaldsonville. The only difference is where the CO2 comes from.

I'm sure the retard rural good ole boy network ain't happy about this new $100 billion either. They are not in control and not making money off of leaks from their friends in office. One o the members of Save My Louisiana all but admitted this. He called insider info Capitalism

During Edwards first two terms, workers building offshore platforms and modules for topsides were making more than union scale. Even with racists attitudes, black machinists were making union scale in non union jobs. Money flowed bigtime. State money flowed to NOLA so Edwards could get his second term.

Space x coming to Louisiana was going to happen with or without Landry.

On May 28, 2025, Governor Landry signed into law several auto insurance-related bills. This represents the largest tort reform in the history of Louisiana. This comprehensive effort impacts several key legal principles, including “the Housley Presumption”, “No Play, No Pay”, and “Comparative Fault”. Additionally, it also introduces a discount for commercial vehicles equipped with dash cameras.

Smarterchild was a chatbot created by a company ActiveBuddy and used scripted responses.

Bro you could ask smarterchild what movie you should go see and it’d ask you a few questions about what kind of stuff you like and spit out a movie and where and what time it was playing


It did a lot of the things ChatGPT does now in like 2003 minus the whole “gathering data on you” thing

This project isnt eastern.

Well, diversion is what got us here to begin with. But that's a different story

Creating barriers, improving retention, and restoring Marshall areas will absolutely be positive for that area.

This is such a overly tremendous situation/improvement for Louisiana, its unreal. If Louisiana would quit stepping on its own dick, and let Landry get the tax changes thru that are needed, we could launch this situation into becoming property tax free, like Texas and Florida.
I hope we learned from others...dont bring in 10k Mexicans to do work. The lasting effects of that would be a disaster

Maybe the only other solid "win" was the film industry era but the benefit of that vs the tax credits was very debatable


Not a win. The industry has completely abandoned the state. Twenty years, billions of dollars in credits, and nothing remains.

Please explain this.

I think it has more to do with proximity to Texas and his other businesses and Space X.

Im generally curious why you are suggesting this area in Louisiana is one of the only areas “on the planet” that Elon could do something like this.

They have to launch from a coast. Preferably someplace isolated from major population centers because safety and noise. The trajectories are better launch to the east and south as opposed to the west. Louisiana also has a ton of natural gas and refining capability needed to make rocket fuel. If you plan on launching dozens of ships per day you can’t really just truck it all in. Also they need the water from the sea for the water deluge systems to absorb the power from the rocket engines.
