"I have found the records to prove a direct loop where Hope In Action PAC takes major funds from carbon capture and energy giants like Commonwealth LNG and CapturePoint and funnels it to the Accountability Project.

This group then pays the same Mandeville firm currently under Senate investigation, People Who Think LLC, to run ads supporting Julia Letlow.

The paper trail is clear: Letlow is the hand-picked candidate of the carbon industry, not the people of Louisiana."

Who are they working for?

In plain English, a Mandeville firm called People Who Think LLC got $77 million in no-bid federal contracts to make ads starring Kristi Noem.

The feds are investigating it. Noem got fired over it.

The man who runs it worked with Corey Lewandowski on Jeff Landry’s governor’s race.
That same firm is now running ads for Julia Letlow.

The money funding those ads comes from carbon capture companies — the same industry trying to seize Louisiana land by eminent domain — funneled through Hope In Action PAC to The Accountability Project.
Landry’s network.

CCS money. A firm under federal investigation. All working to put Letlow in the Senate.

This is Conservative Inc. Same donors. Same operatives. Same no-bid contracts. Same revolving door. Just with a Republican label on it.

Who are they working for?

NOT YOU. Unless you are a foreign multinational carbon capture corporation or lobbyist with plans to seize Louisiana land.

This really isn't surprising considering Letlow's insider trading excuse of "i don't handle my own finances" and her DEI "i was doing it before black lives matter started, so it's different" excuse. I don't trust that woman.

Plus her fiance is a lawyer and lobbyist for carbon capture. Letlow is bad for Louisiana!

Maybe he should have released that info before early voting started?

Not looking forward to another month of this BS. Stop slinging mud and tell us what you are going to do if elected. That goes for both.

Full disclosure, this is not a subject that I have much knowledge about.

However, at DC Mardi Gras, several lobbying firms including People Who Think, Big Carbon Capture, Big Green Energy, and LNG spent a fortune the last few years. Follow the money!

If he thinks that is going to sway moderate and conservative women from voting for a woman ... he doesn't understand women.

Furthermore, looks play into politics more than most are willing to admit ... and Letlow has him in the looks department.

I'm not saying that's right or wrong, but I've been involved in politics (worked a lot of campaigns) long enough to know that those are two big deciding factors in politics these days.

Then there's going to be the mud slinging issue.

He would do a lot better if he stuck strictly to what he's goung to accomplish for the people of Louisiana rather than trying to tear her down. She's an empathetic candidate to many.

Who really won't sell us out?

Really, not just saying so to get elected.

That didn't seem to matter when crippled, old Abbott defeated Abortion Barbie in TX. Or how about Hillary vs. Trump in 2016?

IMO things worked out just fine. We got the incumbent swamp rat out and now we have time to learn things(like in the OP) about the two choices remaining.

Those were not primary races. Those were two party races

Also, Wendy Davis wasn't that good looking and she negated tf outta any looks playing into it when she railed, in a filibuster, for women's rights to abort babies right up to birth.

Hillary vs Trump ... again, two different parties, two different political ideologies and there has never been a more unsympathetic female in the history of politics than Killary.

With her record of deceit, expect Cassidy to support her now. They both ride the same horse.

Is spotting money flow in politics now a bad thing?

I guess they already decided who won. No way Fleming can compete without support from DC.
