Hy and Christopher take on several topics in this week show including Mayor Helena Moreno’s proposal to create an industrial corridor in New Orleans East and how the spat with Liz Morrell may affect the cities ability to get dollars to do that (and build a new City Hall annex).
We also talked about how Democrats are forcing Graham Platner out of the race in Maine, will Republicans force Ken Paxton out in the wake of his visit to London with his married mistress?
We also spent some time on the bombing of Iran coming back.
However, most of our conversation centers around how the coming 2027 Jefferson Parish elections, Kicking Off with Liljeberg At-Large.
At a press conference on July 9, Jefferson Parish District 5 Councilman Hans Liljeberg announced his candidacy for At-Large Division B in the October 2027 primary.
With a $12,000 per couple fundraising email sent two days prior and his subsequent announcement at 3330 N. Causeway last Thursday evening, he signaled his intention to run to succeed the term-limited Scott Walker – who introduced Liljeberg at the event and endorsed his candidacy. The District 5 council member kicks off his at-large bid in what promises to be an overall very active political season in the autumn of 2027 in the metro area’s largest parish.
While Walker revealed on March 31 that he would end his nascent campaign for parish president “to focus on his personal life and business”, his Division A At-Large colleague Jennifer Van Vrancken has signaled that she expects to run to succeed the term-limited President Cynthia Lee-Sheng.
District Councilmen Byron Lee and Deano Bonano also face term limits, and most political observers foresee competitive elections for their respective (predominantly) West and East Bank seats. Crowded fields of candidates likely will gather for reasons of patronage as much as political prestige. Jefferson Parish council members are often considered more powerful than even the parish president, as nearly all parish contracts are issued by the council members and not by the chief executive – unlike in Orleans Parish. Moreover, it is not uncommon for state legislators to resign to run for Parish Council, so influential is the job in contracting and administrative authority.
Liljeberg, though well-known in his base in Old Metairie, has not embarked upon a competitive parish-wide race in well over two decades. In his announcement, the councilman claimed, “I am better trained and more dedicated than ever to bridging divides, governing with respect, and leading with calm resolve, not just for District 5, but for all the people of Jefferson Parish.”
However, the question remains whether he remains known well enough across the parish to make that compelling case. He last ran a contested race across the parish in 2002 for a judgeship on the 24th JDC. His later bid in 2012 for the state Appellate Court was unopposed. A generation has passed since he faced nearly the entire electorate of the parish.
Nevertheless, when Liljeberg resigned from the Fifth District Court of Appeals in 2023, to run for Parish Council, he won 66-34 over fellow Republican Melinda Bourgeois. He possesses the resources to self finance much of his campaign, and barring a major scandal, political prognosticators consider him to be a favorite to win.
Liljeberg doubly acknowledged the division that has plagued Jefferson politics – the often contentious relationship between representatives of both sides of the river – as well as making a subtle appeal to West Bank voters who may not know him as well. As he explained on July 9, “We have an east bank and a west bank and it’s important that we bring everybody together; we need unity in this parish, and I’m prepared to do that.”
By positioning himself as a unifier on the council who can bring opposing sides together, the Republican contender frames his campaign with a bipartisan, cross-river strategy to undercut any potential West Bank challenger.
Regardless, there are more voters on Jefferson Parish’s East Bank than West Bank, yet the entire parish’s political and racial composition has been changing in recent years. Overall demographics have altered considerably since Liljeberg's original bid for judgeship. Caucasians have decreased in their voting power as Jefferson’s Hispanics and African Americans continue to grow as percentages of the population. Jefferson Parish remains on track to become a minority/majority parish within the next 25 years.
We also talked about how Democrats are forcing Graham Platner out of the race in Maine, will Republicans force Ken Paxton out in the wake of his visit to London with his married mistress?

Speaker 1 (00:03):
Bie holes, politicians, the pressed, the digitators and magicians are
first to see the money. They don't. There's nothing to feel.
The holes well then feeling that pockets bid holes, the
politicians bouncing down the road. Everybody's wish for no moment,
(00:27):
corruption and its function, It's gone. I take Divide is off.
Speaker 2 (00:34):
The Jefferson Parish elections kicked off on Thursday with the
announcement of Hans Lildgerberg, who's running for at large parish president.
And how will this affect the entire region in ways
you might not know? And Helena Moreno leaves out a fantastic,
big plan to have an industrial belt from Mishu to
the new Port of New Orleans facility in Saint Bernard.
(00:56):
Is it feasible? And how well the little indictment crisis
with Liz Morrel have an impact on this? No money
from the state. And we're going to look a little
beyond If Graham Plattner is leaving in Maine, should Ken
Paxton be next to leave in Texas? Were to analyze
the national political situation even look a little.
Speaker 3 (01:15):
Too iran and beyond.
Speaker 2 (01:16):
All this and more on this edition of The Founder Show.
Speaker 3 (01:20):
And God Bless you all out there. You are now
listening to the founders. So the voice of the founding fathers,
your founding fathers, coming to you. Deep within the bowels
are those mystic and cryptic alligator swamps of the Big Easy,
that old Crescent City, New Orleans, Louisiana. And high up
(01:41):
on top of that old liberty cypress tree draped in
Spanish moss, way out on the Eagles Branch, is none
other then your Spenary Baba of the Republic, Chaplain Hi mcenry.
Speaker 2 (01:52):
With Christopher Tidmore, your roving reporter, resident radical moderate and
associate editor of the Louisiana Weekly newspaper at Louisiana Weekly
dot net, and the councilman from old and New Meticy
and from Bucktown and the district along the Orleans Parish line.
Hans Lilgeberg announced as the first announced candidate running for
(02:12):
parish at large position, not just for the council, but
running parish wide in the upcoming Jefferson Parish elections. He
is the first of what we will hear of many
because a lot of people are term limited out. Parish
President Cynthia Lee Shang, the daughter of Harry Lee, term
limited Jennifer van Franken, current at large council person running,
(02:32):
possibly Scott Walker, who's the other at large consonant, also
term limited, possibly running. Both of them will be vying
we think for parish president. We know Van Franken will
be lil Geberg is running for one of the two
at large seats, and he seems to be the favorite
unless there is a potential problem when it comes to
(02:53):
some of the development decisions that he's been part of.
And that's always the trick bag in Jefferson politics. I
used to tell people, if you think you know a
lot about machine politics, go to Jefferson Parish for a
postgraduate degree, with apologies to John Nance Gardner, that it
is the most efficient machine that we have, but occasionally
it runs into some political pressure and you're going to
see a lot of change over on the council and
(03:16):
this and why does this matter? Because Jefferson is at
a turning point right now. Jefferson is one of the
quickly quickest aging parishes in the state. It has some
of the oldest demographics. It's literally having to close four
or five schools and has not been ahead of the
game the way Orleans has because of the way the
(03:36):
charter system works, it's very easy to close schools. Not easy,
but simple to close schools in Orleans. If a charter
school doesn't have enough students, it can't support it, it's closed.
It's a little bit more complicated than Jefferson, but the
closure of schools is just one indication of a much
larger situation. There are fewer young people, housing costs have
(03:57):
gone high enough, and older couples are living longer, so
Jefferson is getting grayer, and the bedroom community of the city,
which is also the business community of the metropolitan area,
is having some problems. Jefferson has also been a place
where quite a lot of industrial concerns were, but quite
a lot of warehouses and distribution was. It's starting to
(04:20):
lose all of that because if you notice, there is
a inventory tax that used to be refunded by the state.
Now it's not being refunded by the state. It was
part of jeff Landry's effort to how should I put
this cut taxes by getting rid of all the other
tax benefits business have. But businesses have slowly begun to relocate.
(04:40):
So Jefferson has some long term organizational problems, and it's
starting to see the problems that Orleans was experiencing in
the nineteen eighties, including demographics. At current rates of growth,
Jefferson will not be a majority white parish in twenty years.
It won't be a majority black parish. It'll just not
have a majority. Twenty percent of the population and growing
(05:01):
almost to a quarter is Hispanic Whites are descending, and
they will in the next ten to twelve years past
the threshold of not being the majority. African Americans are
increasing their popular as a black middle class has moved
to Jefferson. Interestingly, Orleans has kind of been going in
the other direction. African Americans still constitute sixty percent of
the population, but it's been a number that's been diminishing,
(05:24):
and the current rates of growth, Orleans will not have
a black majority in another twenty years because young families
have been more likely to move to certain parts of
New Orleans, particularly Lakeview, Lake Vista, and parts of Uptown,
than they have been to move to any other area
in this so, some parts of Orleans have been doing
really well, other parts are not. And the other part
(05:45):
that's been doing miserably is New Orleans East. So if
you've been watching the news, this week you saw Helena Moreno,
the relatively new mayor of New Orleans, give a speech
on an economic plan for New Orleans East, and it
actually has some viability. The question is what is the
real incentive. But this is the basic idea. You've heard
(06:05):
High and I talk for years on how the Port
of New Orleans does a terrible job on rollover industries.
We collect things in New Orleans, they come into New
Orleans and then they're shipped elsewhere to be manufactured. Well,
now the new deep water port that's being built in
Saint Bernard, the new cargo port, will be connected directly
via I five to ten, that's the interstate level road
(06:27):
that goes into Saint Bernard. They're actually going to build
a toll connection directly to the port and Violet and
it will connect through Saint Bernard. Now through New Orleans East,
Shall Met and Araby do not want those industries. They
do not want those roads built through. They want to
remain bedroom communities. And Saint Bernard population wise has been growing.
(06:49):
It's actually bouncing back from the storm which devastated as population. Well,
what that means is that most of the port's facilities
will go over the Bridge towards New New Orleans East,
towards the Meeshoe Facility. For those that don't know, all
those rockets you've been seeing going to the moon, Artemis one,
Artemis two, soon to be Artemis three, the part of
(07:09):
the space launch system that has a partnership between Lockheed
and Boeing. They're all assembled at Meschue in New Orleans.
They're tested right across in Mississippi at Stennis, but they're
all assembled. They're all built here, so there's a huge
sixteen hundred NASA employees. What Helena Morena wants to do
is create an industrial corridor that goes from Meeshoe and
(07:31):
the surrounding areas near the lake all the way towards
the Newport facility in Saint Bernard and a density of
assembly plants and in the industry, and that will roll
over into having residential communities. Plus New Orleans East finally
is coming, is starting to develop its river, its lakefront area.
(07:54):
Henry Coxham, you might know that name. He was one
of the foremost African American business people. He owned several
McDonald's in the area. He was the head of the
New Orleans Business Alliance. He has put millions of dollars
in taking what had been the old Balley's Casino boat
area and turning it into it on the lake. I
went out there the other day high it's right near
lake for an airport. It's going to be the new
West End restaurants facilities. It's gorgeous. He's doing an outstanding job.
(08:19):
And right down from it, and I don't mean far down,
I mean literally just right down the street from it
will be the new Lincoln Beach. It didn't open this year,
but they've been doing major work. I kind of snuck in.
I know, I'm admitting to a felony here. I kind
of jumped the fence and went to Lincoln to see
what we mean.
Speaker 3 (08:34):
It's against the law for a white man to be there,
only blacks.
Speaker 2 (08:36):
It's against the law for anybody to cross. They actually
the signs. This is great, the signs at Lincoln Beach
saying do not enter roll in Spanish. Because the biggest
problem they had Spatish workers jump and kicking their kids
at the beach. But here's the thing. Lincoln Beach, unlike
ponch Train Beach, is actually quite nice. It's a nice
beach area, and they didn't open it this year for
(08:57):
a variety of reasons, but it looks like they are
guaranteed to open it next year. So her idea is
how to revitalize New Orleans East, and the maximum part
of all of that high is she wants to put
a city hall annex a lot of the city hall
jobs in the East as trying as an anchor to this. Now,
New Orleans East has eighty eight thousand people that live there,
which would make it if it were its own city,
(09:20):
like the sixth or seventh biggest city in Louisiana. However,
if you drive through New Orleans East, you're going to
see something. It still looks like a war zone. Post Katrina.
It has not gotten back retail level things. I mean,
you're lucky if you basically got a dollar general. It
hasn't really re come back ever since the storm. And
(09:41):
so the idea is that if you make industrial development
out there, and you put city hall jobs out there,
and you connect it to the new port out there,
it will be a draw out for the city. Now,
the necessity of building a city hall annex out there
may have taken on a little bit of extra facility
because the state of Louisian I told Mayor Helena Moreno, well,
(10:03):
we're not giving you any money for city hall. She'd
asked for a bond issue to help fund several infrastructure requirements.
It wasn't just a city hall, but she withdrew it
on Thursday with the assumption that it would be removed.
Guess who one of the votes are to guarantee a
bond advancement The Attorney General and Liz Morel is not
(10:25):
exactly happy with the City of New Orleans. If you
haven't been following this story, she was under indictment for
quote threatening city employees that was quashed by the State
Supreme Court, but at the same time she reacted quite
badly to it. I was actually from one of our
sources here at the Founder show. I was hit somebody
who had talked to her that day. She felt like
(10:46):
she had been wrong. City officials felt she had gone
too far and threatening prosecution if they proceeded with an
election for the open Clerk of Court's position. It was
an interpretation. Most attorney generals in fair wouldn't have threatened prosecution.
They would have just simply said I'll see you in
court and we'll decide how the court's run. Liz morel
is not a veteran politician, but the city realized it's
(11:09):
not going to get any money out of the state
having pissed off. In fairness, Helena Moreno on the council
had nothing to do with this indictment, but their unintended
recipients of her ire because they wanted to fill the
seat for this. Anyway, what's happening in New Orleans in
the midst of all of this things is some opportunities.
Hopefully that will manifest in the East. We will see
(11:31):
how that plays. But folks, honestly, we got a lot
coming in go.
Speaker 3 (11:36):
Ahead, and I yeah, this is great news. Chris from
I'm so glad to hear about that businessman. What's his name.
Speaker 2 (11:41):
Again, Henry Coxham, Henry.
Speaker 3 (11:44):
Copson, a very successful African American businessman. I'd love to
see that, you know, folks, I'll work with African American
kids here and I'm always trying to point them to heroes,
people that in their community that have really made it,
encouraging them that they can make it. But one thought
I have about I've had this since my high school years.
I've been promoting this and what I don't understand is
(12:06):
why we've got every reason and every opportunity to build
a fantastic beach from the Bonnet Carrot Spillway all the
way to the five mile Bridge to slide l to Irish.
Buy you that holes about fifty miles of magnificent beaches,
sand dunes, seoats, palm trees, with occasional marinas, high rises,
(12:29):
the whole deal, just like you see on the on
the Florida Coast or the Mississippi Golf Coast. Maybe a
couple of casinos, whatever makes it go instead of just
a couple of little places like Lincoln Beach. And if
Palm Train Beach is back up and going and I
don't know, it's not so there's no reason we can't
do that. And it's not expensive. We got the sand
right there in the lake. It's so easy to do
(12:53):
and so real affordable. And think of what a blessing
it would be for the people in New Orleans and
for the children, the teenagers. They can't get in cars
and go to the Missippi Golf Coast so far, but
they can walk or take a bus to to the
lake front. Man, it would be so dynamic for the
health of this city, and I don't know why we
won't do it.
Speaker 2 (13:12):
Do you want to know why they don't do?
Speaker 3 (13:13):
Of course I I've heard stories, but you know I've
heard stories.
Speaker 2 (13:16):
No, I agree. I mean the the building of the
sea walls. Uh, it's putting sand against them. Is exactly
what they did on the Mississippi Gulf Coast. There's no
reason why you couldn't. Here's the answer to your question.
And it's the same reason why even though Poncertrain Beach
is a pretty good beach, you don't have access to
it right now. It's liability insurance. And before you say
(13:37):
what you're about to say, when you go into the ocean,
you're not You're not subject to the liability of the
state or the municipality. It has to do with you're
you're even though you're in the US domestic waters, you're
not considered part of the state. When you go into
the lake and you swim, if you get hurt, you
can sue the city for not putting enough violation, you know,
(13:58):
not protections on it. Why did they not have a lifeguard?
Why do they not this? You can't and swimming at
your own risk doesn't work legally. So when they wanted
to reopen pont to Train Beach. There was a nonprofit
that wanted to reopen it, and they were going to
charge ten dollars a person to go do it. The
ten dollars a little bit was maintenance, but mostly it
(14:18):
was to pay for the liability insurance so that they
could actually cover you know, have they could have a
lifeguard that could cover the liability insurance and they could
open it. And there was a huge public reaction against
charging to go to pont to Train Beach. Now, the
interesting part that I've never quite understood that nonprofit, by
the way, collapsed. They basically gave up because the public
opposition was huge. What's happening with Lincoln Beach. It would
(14:43):
be charged as well, but for some reason there isn't
the same degree of opposition. I don't really understand why,
but it has the same problem if they try. If
they built beaches all the way along the lake and
they could not have lifeguards, protections and liability insurance, the
exposure to the city under US law and particularly state
(15:08):
law would be huge. In a way. Ironically, it's not
on the Gulf Coast, and this is actually not a
small issue in development there is a whole series of
beaches south of Lake Charles Cameron Parish and all this
which is some of the most undeveloped beach front on
the Gulf Coast in the United States, and it's prime
to be developed because it doesn't have this problem.
Speaker 3 (15:31):
Yeah, Christopher, one of the things we could do is
all the marinas and all the high rises, the condos
and whatever that would go line this new development in
New Orleans. I mean, it would be fair. It would
be our Gold Coast. Let them pay for the liability insurance.
Let all that development, the casino, all that, and then
it would work. It really would work. And that part
(15:53):
of the what they'll have to do is I have
to have lifeguards, pay for the lifeguards a whole deal.
They can do it. It can work.
Speaker 2 (15:59):
You can't build on the lakefront, and I don't mean
you like we just to decide not to do it.
When the Lakefront was built, it was a series of
federal covenants that you couldn't build on it. This is
why west End didn't come back, because west End predated it.
And now they won't let anything be built at the
lakefront at west End. The Feds won't allow it. Has
(16:22):
nothing to do with the city, and.
Speaker 3 (16:23):
We get our legislators to get moving and relieve the
you know, we'll remove these foolish laws. And it's Congress,
that's what I mean. That's legislator, that's Congress, congressman or legislators.
That's a general term to say the House and the Senate. Uh.
Let them get going for us. Uh. That's why they're there,
that's why we pay them. And we could have It
(16:46):
would be such an amazing blessing for this city. And
I'm especially thinking of the kids. Kids. Don't when I
take my kids to the park or whatever and they
see a squirrel or they see birds, you know, nice
birds and all that. We have a lot of beautiful
birds in Louisiana. Uh, it stuns them. They get so excited.
(17:06):
They can't stand it. Because when they're in the in
the in the terrible places they live, they don't know
any of that. They don't know the beauty of mother nature.
And this would give them. It would be a huge area.
It would it would. Oh, it would be so wonderful
for the kids of this city. Folks. We need to
do this. Call your congressman, call your senator, beat them
to death to make them get going and open the
(17:28):
door so we can do this thing because it's not
going to be expensive, and we can let the development
that will follow it pay for it. They got the
money for it.
Speaker 2 (17:37):
I guarantee you the one thing I dealt with, which
is the United States Coast Guard and the Coastal Authority,
which is who's in charge federally of the of the
miss Everything that's along the lake, Folks, was built and
filled in with federal dollars, and they have userfrus of it.
I can guarantee you.
Speaker 3 (17:55):
Uh.
Speaker 2 (17:55):
While I would love to see what you're talking about happen,
it's gonna be big enough just trying to get Lincoln
Beach and maybe pont Train Beach reopen. What you're talking about,
Congress is not gonna pass a special law just for
just for New Orleans to take what is public parkland
and turn it into development of properties. High It's not
(18:17):
gonna happen.
Speaker 3 (18:19):
It'll be public parkland lined by development. That's what it
would be. This could happen. We've just got to start
pursuing it. As New Orleanians. We need to get after
this thing, and probably especially over the next couple of years,
because whenever you give Trump a task that's impossible, he
gets it done. He might really enjoy doing this because
(18:41):
he loves to face the impossible and make it happen.
This is really not the impossible. But it's gonna be
tough with what he was saying, and it can happen. Folks,
don't let anything discourage you. Believe it can work, and
it'll work. We'll get it going.
Speaker 2 (18:56):
I've been trying to get Lincoln Beach. I've been watching
and hoping and trying to play a role in just
getting Lincoln Beach reopened for the last twenty years. I
wouldn't hold my breath on that one, but will hope,
I hope, honestly high that what you come to, may
I'm not disagreeing with the principle of it. It's a
beautiful dream. I just I cannot see a way. What
(19:18):
I can see, however, is that we can develop Helena Morano.
Here's the whole point of the story that we were
starting with was not about beachfront development. That's the key
of it. It's the fact that the mayor of New
Orleans has been presented a way of revitalizing a part
and I don't actually hear those big ideas, ironically coming
(19:38):
from Jefferson Parish. So we started talking about the Jefferson elections.
That's what I want you to comment on. Why aren't
we hearing that in what is supposedly pro business Jefferson,
when we're hearing it in pro business Orleans. I think
there is a problem in Orleans in this development. They're
not offering enough tax benefits for manufacturers. They're even with
the zoning changes, but I'm not hearing any real proposal
(19:59):
to turn around what is becoming a slightly moribund economy
in Jefferson Parish.
Speaker 3 (20:04):
Yeah, very interesting Jeffson Parish. I mean, pay attention. Y'all
have always been a very productive parish, and I hope
you're not going to be falling asleep on this anyway.
One last thing, Remember that four hundred years ago when
we called, or three hundred years ago, when we called
the people of Europe to come to New Orleans. We
(20:25):
painted beautiful pictures of them. We needed settlers, we needed
warm bodies here, and so there was a big pr
program that went on by John Law and all over Europe.
You had pamphlets pictures of New Orleans, beautiful alpine mountains
and guess what magnificent beaches we can make that we
can at least fulfill the promise of the beaches right now, folks.
(20:45):
We could do it. And remember originally Lake Pontentraine had
beautiful beaches until we did all this stuff, you know,
the construction work on him with us, with the sea
wall and all that.
Speaker 2 (20:54):
Hi, John Law was the prototype of a Louisiana politician
of Blayton Liar. Those posters said, come to the mountains
of Louisiana.
Speaker 3 (21:02):
That's my point, that's my point. We all know that
he was the biggest bs con artist I ever lived,
and so but anyway, I thought it was funny that
he painted these beautiful pictures of beaches. Well, we got
we could do that. We could fulfill that promise right now.
Don't forget that, folks. We need those beaches here in
New Orleans, all right, and this time for us take
a break. We'll be right back in just a little bit.
Speaker 4 (21:28):
Rescue, recovery, re engagement, these are not just words. These
are the action steps we at the New Orleans Mission
take to make a positive impact on the homeless problem
facing the greater New Orleans area. Did you know homelessness
in our community increased by over forty percent. We are
(21:49):
committed to meet this need through the work being done
at the New Orleans Mission. We begin the rescue process
by going out into the community every day to bring food, pray,
and share the love of Jesus with the hopeless and
hurting in our community. Through the process of recovery, these
individuals have the opportunity to take time out, assess their life,
(22:14):
and begin to make new decisions to live out their
God given purpose. After the healing process has begun and
lives are back on track, we walk each individual as
they re engage back into the community to be healthy, thriving,
and living a life of purpose. No one is meant
to live under a bridge. No one should endure abuse,
(22:36):
no one should be stuck in addiction. The New Orleans
Mission is a stepping stone out of that life of
destruction and into a life of hope and purpose. Partner

Hi mcgenry.
Speaker 2 (24:19):
With Christopher Tidmore. And before we get to national politics,
I want to compliment somebody, a compliment of politician. That's
something we don't do very often. But Shreeport Mayor Tom
Arsenow is qualifying for reelection. He was the first white
Republican to win in Shreeport in decades. It's a minority
majority city. And what he did to requalify was go
(24:39):
and collect signatures. Now, most people don't realize this because
most of the time politicians effect. Most of the time
ninety nine point nine nine nine percent of the times,
politicians just pay for their qualification, which is usually about
one thousand dollars a little bit more depending upon the race.
In this case, Arsenau did the other job. If you
collect eight hundred signatures, or least eight hundred signatures, you
(25:01):
can get on the ballot. Now, that requires sometimes a
lot of money to get signature takers if you prefer
to do it that way, but also requires a lot
of time to go talk to people ask them to
support your candidacy. And I remember I thought about when
I ran for the legislature, doing just this, and my
political consultant at the time, my friend Saidia Royal, said, no,
don't do that, You'll look bush league. Nobody does that.
(25:22):
But I've always stuck in the back of my mind
there was something noble about asking people, look, I want
to run again. Can I have your support and writing
for me to run again? That's kind of a noble
idea we should get back to here in Louisiana. I
don't think we should have like other states, thirty five
or forty thousand signatures. That's what some states require. But
you know, getting politicians to collect eight hundred signatures, eight
(25:43):
hundred people who think you're doing a good job and
are willing to put their names on a document to
say so, that's a that's not a bad, bad idea.
Also a little kind of crazy thing. We broadcast the
show on just off Magazine Street, and New Orleans is
about to get it's first Get ready for this pay
what you can restaurant. It's it gonna be at forty
(26:06):
eight seven Magazine Street and basically it's gonna be operated
by a nonprofit and you go in and order dinner
and you pay what you can afford. Now, this model
has been used by some museums and others to go in. Basically,
you make a contribution. I've never seen it succeed as
(26:26):
a payonal. It's gonna be. The place is gonna be called.
Crescent City Cafe is the proposed restaurant. A del Bregman says.
It means it's a community base place where anyone can
have a meal pay what you will. Now, I'm curious, Hi,
And the reason I'm asking high this question is let
me give him a little bit of a credit. Hi
and his beautiful wife Liba, as part of their ministry,
(26:47):
feed dozens of kids every week. They provide a community
meal free of charge. They do it every week as
part of their ministry at Lambdola, and they spend a
fortune doing this. It is not cheap and a pay
as you go restaurant. We'd hope that some people come
in and pay a lot, but let's face it, most
people come in and pay a dollar or two. I'm
(27:07):
kind of cynical, but kind of it is. Can you
actually afford doing that?
Speaker 3 (27:12):
It's New Orleans, Chris free. It's the way it is here.
Speaker 2 (27:15):
And so I'm really curious if a pay as you
will restaurant pay as you want will succeed. I've always
been an advocate of that, you know, with museums and others.
But what ultimately happens is that people just basically come
in and say, I'll pay a penny. I will tell
you there's been a few times I've walked into the
New York Metropolitan Museum of Art, which had pay as
you will for years, and I paid what I will,
(27:37):
which was very little pay. So maybe I under saying,
but it is kind of heartening to say that there
will be a restaurant in New Orleans that you can
go to a nice restaurant experience, and regardless of what
you can afford, you can get a good meal. But
I think it may not succeed, but we will see. Anyway,
speaking of things that did not succeed, you heard me
(27:58):
and a lot of people were surprised about the v
imments I had against Grand Platner, and I said, along,
Democrats need to police this situation. It's going to get worse.
A guy who had the text messages he did, had
the Nazi tattoo, had the PTSD. We're going to find
more things wrong and guess what turns out an ex
girlfriend of his five years ago. He showed up at
our house and he raped her, or at least that's
(28:19):
the allegation. It was enough to get Graham Platner to
drop out of the race after Democrat but this is
why he dropped out. It wasn't that he didn't think
he'd win. Democrats came out and not only started demanding it,
the money dried up. Chuck Schumer said, I'm not giving
any money. We'll let the Republicans win this race if
you don't quit now. Democrats have until July twenty seventh
(28:41):
to find a replacement. They're having a state convention in
Maine for a grand Plattner, and they will find a replacement.
He's dropped out of the race. But what's curious to
me is while all this is happening, Republicans have a problem,
and that is one of their safest seats in danger now.
It's just so you know the math. Republicans are on
several seats going for the GOP. One of them is
(29:02):
in Georgia John Ausoff, who's running for reelection, but currently
he's leading in the polls in the southern state of
Georgia over the Republican candidate. Same thing is happening with
Roy Cooper in North Carolina, a seat that's held by
Republican Tom Tillis is retiring, Democrats are ahead. Democrats have
said that they had to win one of those seats
(29:24):
and Maine to be able to succeed. Maine may be
in trouble, but they could replace Maine with another state,
and that state is called Texas. Texas has an open
Senate seat. Now that Frankly, Ken Paxton came along and
defeated the incumbent senator from Texas. But Ken Paxton had
a very interesting Fourth of July. Now as my valiant
(29:44):
partner Hi McHenry was at Colonial Williamsburg and enjoying the
holiday as a patriotic American, as I was at the
riverfront as everybody was doing it. What is the least
likely place you would go for the Fourth of July
if you had to choose it as an American?
Speaker 3 (30:00):
London? London, let's celebrating the defeat of the British.
Speaker 2 (30:05):
Perhaps Ken Paxton goes to London not for a big affair,
not for hey, I've celebrated the defeat. He goes there
on a weekend with his married mistress. Now Ken Paxton
as you know, is in the process of going through
a divorce. He's not divorced yet, he's in the process
of going through divorce his wife, who is a state
senator and the tax LEDGA is divorcing him on quote
(30:27):
biblical grounds, her words, not mine, of his cheating on her,
abusing her, hitting hers. Just you look at the divorce things,
You're like, good God. He's also up on you know,
on corruption charges, on voter charges. But I mean some
of these corruption charges. This he was actually indicted by
a Republican House, wasn't convicted in the Senate, and he
(30:51):
yet he's running as a Republican Senate. Is anyone astonished?
James Tallarico is now running two to three points ahead,
and more importantly, just raised thirty million dollars. So here's
the question I'm asking high. I was incredibly hard and
grand platiner. I came out and I said the Democrats
need to get rid of him, and they did. I
(31:11):
don't think they did because I said it, but they did.
When are the Republicans going to come out and start
telling Ken Paxton, you know what, if you don't drop
out of this race, we're not giving you any more money.
Quit and let us replace you.
Speaker 3 (31:23):
You have a good point there, Christopher, But remember this,
this is politics. Remember that the Democrat Party backed Platiner
for months, declaring him to be the greatest thing ever
of all times, knowing all this dirt on him, and
yet they continued to support him till it just got
to be way too much. I mean, the guy in
(31:45):
every way you can be a sickoh, he's a sicko.
Everything about him was false. You know, he was an oyster,
but he's hardly ever struck an oyster in his life.
His only customer was his mother. Everything about except I
think his military duty real. I hope, I hope he
doesn't fake that. And he's guilty of stolen valor. We
don't know. I haven't. I haven't had a chance to
(32:06):
check that. I'm believing it was true. But everything about
the guy, he's just a sick oh. Okay, a real sicko,
and he's caused a lot of problems. He's very abusive
of every wait a minute, a very abusive man in
every kind of way. And so it's interesting that the
Democrats held on to this guy un till it just
got to be too much, too extreme. And that's the
(32:27):
way politics is played, it's not played according to the Bible.
It's a dirty game. It's a dirty game. And so
what should we do about Paxton? Right? All right? If
I was in charge, I'd say I wouldn't have let him.
I'd have kept him from running. I'd have stopped it
in the beginning. But I'm not in charge, and now
he's the number one candidate. I understand there's gonna be
(32:49):
a lot of scandal coming out on Tolerico coming up soon.
They're holding it, but it's on its way, and so
we'll see. Does that mean they both drop out? I mean,
I don't know. It's gonna be really interesting to see
how this works out. Time will tell, And yeah, we
can talk about a perfect world and what people should
do in perfect In a perfect world, you know, if
(33:09):
Jesus was on the throne right now, ruling the kingdom, Yeah,
Paxton wouldn't even have been allowed to run. So we'll
see where it goes. Christopher, Now you want me to say, yes,
crucify Paxton. Uh, put him in jail, Uh throw the
k away. Don't tell me he's not anywhere near a
liability to what Platinum was. No, he's not he's not
even close. But and all this can be debated. We
(33:32):
don't really know have enough evidence of proof about his
trip to I guess I can prove he went to London.
But remember he's he's he's basically in a divorce. And
that's when uh, they're allowed, you know, the spouses are
allowed to go out with other people. Uh. So you know, folks, Uh,
it's it. That doesn't look good. I think it was
very foolish. If in fact he did do that, that
(33:53):
was very foolish of him. Uh but remember that. But again,
this is going to be played according to the political game,
not according to what I say. So you know that's politics.
Politics a dirty, dirty business, folks. That's why you know,
I've had a lot of people say, how you go
into politics, You're the great speaker. I've had people cheer
me when I do a little speech in a restaurant
(34:14):
or something. I'm you know, kind of loud, and everybody
heard me in the restaurant. You should were you run,
you'd be our candidate. I could never do that, folks.
It's so dirty. It just it sickens me. And I'm sorry.
I could just and I have a higher calling. I
believe being a preacher a minister is even a higher
calling than the President of the United States. I may
(34:36):
make a lot of people seem I think it's crazy,
but I feel that I'm convicted of that and convinced
of that, So I could never go into politics. It's
and one reason being is it just is such a dirty, dirty,
rotten game. Christopher, what's the next thing?
Speaker 2 (34:50):
Well, have you seen the billboard near the Caesars studio?
So the Attorney General designate Tom Blanche was quote in
charge of the Epstein matter, according to former Attorney General
Pam Bondi, she testified to Congress that he was. He's
now up for Attorney general. Three Epstein survivors put a
(35:11):
poster right next to Caesars asking Louisiana Center Bill Cassidy
to vote dough on Todd Blanche for that reason. So
comes into you know, national politics even affect the skyline
of New Orleans. But we want to talk about some
other things. I do want to before we say something
about Iran. I want to We've only got a few
(35:32):
minutes left. I want to honor two people that passed
away this week. One of them is Joe Young. For
those that do not know. One of the great philanthropists
of the arts was a man by the name of
Joe Young. He passed away last Sunday. He was a
longtime president of the New Orleans Opera. He was a
benefactor of the Louisiana Philharmonic the New Orleans Museum of Art.
(35:54):
He and his late wife, doctor sin Young, were two
of it.
Speaker 3 (35:57):
And they were not.
Speaker 2 (35:58):
These radically wealthy people. What they were were people who
gave their time and effort. Joe never saw someone who
didn't he didn't consider a friend, and he was somebody
who was not above asking you to help one of
his causes, particularly the cause of the musical arts. He
is a giant who kept the Opera and the LPO
(36:19):
alive and will be missed. Also passed away on Thursday
Thursday morning was a man by the name of Bill Farr.
If you've ever heard of the insurance agency Louisiana Companies,
he was the founder of it. He was one of
the elite business leaders and family leaders in southwest Louisiana,
married to the incredible of von Vidrine, and the two
(36:43):
of them were people. Bill Farr is one of the
only people I've ever met who dedicated himself and a
whole bunch of civic organizations, but also to a carnival crew,
and when they came around they wanted him to be king.
He quit the carnival crew because he felt like he
was trying to help them and he wouldn't want to
waste time being king on that. It wasn't about the money,
was about he didn't want He didn't feel like good
works required recognition. That was something both he and Joe
(37:07):
Young had. Joe was president of the opera because that
was operational. He actually ran the opera like he was
the executive director, had one permanent employee in the wake
of the oil crash in the nineteen eighties. But when
push came to shove recognition, they were like, give it
to somebody else, and that's really a Christian activity. Both
men will be lost. Both men were in their early nineties,
(37:28):
and we're both giants of the Louisiana political field, of
which I do not in civic field, and I do
not see men of their like coming about. Men who
wanted to help, men who wanted to contribute, when who
wanted to participate, men who built incredible businesses. In case
of Bill PHR. Louisiana companies and insurance agency. In case
of Joe Young, he was a major developer, property developer,
(37:48):
and yet at the same time gave away all of
their money and time and efforts to help others.
Speaker 3 (37:54):
Thank you, Christopher. Well, real quickly about the Iran war.
And you've heard it on the show before. If you
study Islam uh and and and if you're an extremist,
that means you take the Korean literally and the Shea
is due. But their version of it, which is the
probably most extreme version, Uh, they cannot tell us the truth.
They cannot be honest. They would they would betray Allah
(38:16):
if they did that. So all they're gonna do is
keep lying and continue to push the conquest of the world.
And and so it's getting Trump, it's getting full of it.
I mean you've heard him say it. Now. I'm done
with these people. They're trash. All they ever do is
lie to me. And they do that. Uh, they're just
playing him there, they're buying time. And so what's happening.
(38:38):
He's unleashing unholy Hell upon him. They're they're getting to
meet their Uh, they're the afterworld sooner than they thought.
And I don't think they're going to find their seventy
two versions. So where's it gonna go. The only thing
I can see that will resolve this is we need
(38:58):
to take them back to the Stone Age. And what
I mean by that is take out all it's the
extreme amount of all their military hardware, all their ability
to wage war. We don't have to. We don't want
to own Iran. We don't want to, you know, possess it.
We're not trying to conquer it. We're just trying to
stop them. And if we can beat them back down
to that level, they'll be homeless. The most they can
(39:20):
do is come after us with swords and spears and clubs.
So problem solved, and I think that's where it's going
to end up. Going to my best guests, Let's.
Speaker 2 (39:30):
Say right now, the Iranians have one of the most
sophisticated underground facilities for drone production and weapons production in
the world. How does an aerial bombardment get.
Speaker 3 (39:42):
Rid of that same way it took out the nukes.
We can do its, folks. Remember Russia was trying to
occupy Afghanistan. We do not need to occupy Iran to
basically bomb them back to the Stone Age. We don't
have to do that, and that's all we need to do.
And if Russia, when Russia pulled out Afghanistan was not
capable of conquer the world they had they were. They
(40:02):
were down to basic infantry operations, which wasn't going to
conquer the world. So anyway, folks, and it's time for
us to close.
Speaker 2 (40:09):
I would point out that Afghanistan at the end of
the war, if you remember what the reason we went
in Afghanistan is, they were becoming a center of international
radicalism and terror, which is what I worry Iran will
be if we don't actually have a plan to get
rid of these guys and leave them in place.
Speaker 3 (40:25):
Well be they already are, but they need money to
do it and we're taking that away from them also,
So folks, it's you know, I think that's the future
for Iran. I'm sorry about that. And by the way,
as far as virginime change goes, there's a ton of people,
like the extreme majority of the people want to change
the regime. Let them do it. We don't need to
go in there and do it. Let them do it.
And the Kurds are in the north right now, taken
(40:46):
on northern portions of Iran right now, so they can
secure their own borders. I mean, believe me. And by
the way, those nations around them would love to take
out Afghanistan, so I mean take out Iran. So we
just got to see how this unfalls. But you can't
negotiate with him. It's just unfortunately, it won't work. It's impossible, tragically.
(41:06):
So so folks, it is time for us to go
as we go into our next break and we'll see
you in just a little bit.
Speaker 2 (41:16):

Speaker 1 (43:05):
Bos the politicians, well, folks, it's not time for us
to go into our chaplain by by patriotic moment.
Speaker 3 (43:13):
We just take a brief moment to remind you of
the biblical foundations of our country, our Judeo Christian jurisprudence.
And today we're going to take the person of John Dickinson,
who was a sign of Decoration of Independence. He's a
founder of Dickinson College. He was a member of the
Continent of Congress of twice. He was a writer of
(43:38):
the first raft of the Articles of Confederation. He served
as President's Supreme Executive Council of Pennsylvania. In addition to
being a very accomplished lawyer, planter, and state legislator, Dickinson
wrote persuasive letters were going to the soundness of Christian
evidence and the authority of scripture. He campaigned for the
passage of the Constitution by writing a series of letters
(43:59):
which sign fabius. But in his role for the US
Decoration of Independence, he did something that is absolutely fascinating.
He put in requirements of the finding fathers who are
going to sign the Decoration of Independence, to hold to
this and declare this, I do profess faith in God
the Father, and in Jesus Christ, his eternal Son, the
(44:22):
True God, and in the Holy Spirit and God Blessed forevermore.
And I do acknowledge the holy scriptures of the Old
and New Testaments to be given by divine inspiration. Folks.
I think he was very open and wanted everybody to
know what he really believed. He wasn't hide anything. He
was right out there letting it all hang out, so
(44:44):
to speak. He also said this, but above all, let
us implore the protection of that infinite good and gracious being,
meaning God, of course, by whom King's reign and Prince's
decree justice. Folks. I think John Dickinson absolutely wanted to
make sure we were a country funded upon God, and
(45:06):
he was very open. He's bold about it. He didn't
hide it. It wasn't a private event for him. For him,
it should be a very public thing. Well, folks, I
don't know where you are and all this. I don't
know if you've really undercoming those Jesus as your savior.
As Dickinson declared the fact that signers should they should
(45:27):
know Him as their savior and profess it. But if
you haven't, I'd like to tell you how you can.
Right now as we go to the chaplain byby gospel moment,
We're going to just take a brief moment, a short
time to show you how you can know that. You
know that, you know you're going to heaven when you die,
you're saved from a burning hell and you're going to
be resurrected and be with Jesus forever. Folks. It goes
(45:49):
like this, And before we even get going here, I'd
like to ask you a couple of questions to make
you help you thank here. Folks. Have you come to
that place in your spiritual life where you know for
certain that if you tonight or today you would go
to heaven. Well, let's just say tonight's your big night,
and God would come in your room and he would
say to you, why shall let you come into my heaven?
(46:13):
What would you tell? Do you know the answer? Well,
you're going to find out the answer right now, because
you know the Bible wants us to know it. The
message of eternal life and salvation is found throughout the
scripture's Old and New Testament. In many varied ways. You
need to know that God loves you, the Bible says,
with an everlasting love. But you also need to know
(46:33):
that you have a love problem. It's broken up into
two things, sin and death. Those things keep you from God.
And you need to know that you're never going to
be good enough, smart enough, right, it's enough, holy enough,
or whatever enough to make it to heaven. That's your
love problem. But in no worries, God came up with
a love solution to deal with your sin pollution. And
(46:55):
this is what it is. This is what This is
a simple answer that you need to tell. If you
were answering God that question, why should I let you
come into my heaven, you would say, well, because Jesus, God,
your son, God, the Son died for all of my
sins on the cross, from the day I was born,
in the day I die, my times to my grave sins.
(47:17):
He was buried, and then he rose from the dead,
according to the scriptures, to win for me and give
to me his free gift of resurrection, every lasting life.
And bingo, you'd be right. That's the answer. It's two things.
You first of all need to know you can't save yourself.
That's called repentance. That you never would be good enough,
smart overliveous enough, old enough, righteous enough, whatever enough, charming enough,
(47:40):
whatever you think you got going for you, it's never
gonna be good enough for God because he's perfect. He
demands perfection, and no matter what you do, you can't
get there. So give out, forget it. You're not gonna
make it on your own. And when you come to
that point, you just repented. That's what repentance says. It's
not good works, it's not turning from your sins, getting baptized.
All these things you could do, and they're good to do,
(48:01):
important to do, but that's not what gets you into heaven, folks.
It's when you realize you're never going to be good enough.
That's you're just nothing but a total loser before your creator.
Because you are, I am, we all are. And the
second you realize that you've just repented, and Jesus kept
saying repent and believe, so you got that done. Now
you've repented, and now you're free to put faith alone,
(48:23):
in Christ alone. You're free to believe that only He could,
that he did, and that He will save you from
a burning hell and guarantee you heaven because He died
for all of your sins on the cross, he was buried,
and he rose to the dead, And the split second
you believe, then you're in folks. You're God's child. You
going to heaven when you die. You're saved from a
(48:43):
terrible that horrible eventuality called hell that all people go
to who do the who finally who reject Christ and
reject God for the you know, at the very throughout
their lives, never having coming to believe in Him to
the final end when they've reject Him for the left
time and it's over with farm. I don't wish that
on anybody. I grieve to think that would ever happen
(49:05):
to anybody, but it does God. Let God give you
free will and let he will let you be as
stupid as you want to be. Don't be stupid, folks.
Believe that Jesus really did die for all your sins,
was buried and roast in the dead, and you're guaranteed heaven.
And don't wait till it's too late, like the country
preacher said, And remember the Bible says, now today is
the day of salvation. You may not get tomorrow. Well, folks,
(49:27):
it's not time for us to go into our chaplain
by by watchmen on the wall. And what that means
is in the Old Testament in Isaiah, the prophets will
warn to be good watchmen on the wall. If you
see the enemy coming, warn the people, And the Bible says,
if you don't warn them, the blood of the people's
(49:47):
on your hands.
Speaker 1 (49:48):
So I don't want your blood on mine hand.
Speaker 3 (49:49):
So I'm warning you right now about what's coming, folks,
because Jesus is coming back, and he's coming back soon.
Now he's not the enemy, but the enemy will come
before he comes. And the enemy will come in like
a raging, rabid dog wolf attempting to slaughter and kill
as far as he can. I'm talking about the devil
(50:11):
in the end. When Jesus comes back, Satan's going to
be so mad about it. He's going to go crazy
with rage, and he's going to try to literally terminate
the entire population of planet Earth. And Jesus says that
if he delayed it's coming, there'd be no flesh left. Now,
you know, if he said that two thousand years ago,
there's no way that could have happened two thousand years ago.
Think about it, folks with swords and spears. Uh uh,
(50:32):
no way can it happen today. Absolutely, it's called nuclear war.
There's another biblical prophecy coming true. There are over one
hundred prophecies about I mean, I'm sorry, two hundred prophecies
about Jesus's second coming, one hundred for his first coming, folks,
All two hundred are just about complete now. And Jesus said,
when you see all these things happening coincidentally, all at
(50:53):
the same time, then you know I'm at the door
folks who are watching them all happen right now. He's
coming back soon. Here's a good one. AI. AI is
getting to where it can do anything and everything, and
now it looks like we're losing control of AI. There
are several very large AI firms corporations, and it looks
(51:14):
like the Chinese has gotten their stuff and and with
these AI things have gotten where they can do their
own thing. They can reject that, they can override the
programming that's put in them to make them behave so
to speak. Remember like in the movie Space Oblosly two
thousand and it was that how the computer was taken
(51:36):
over the spaceship and got to kill everybody well, so
he wouldn't have to be bothered with humans because he
decides humans are inefficient, humans are self destructive, that's true,
and so to avoid that, he was actually going to
take over the world, take over spaceship, then take over
the world. Well, it's happening right now, folks, it's happening
(51:57):
right now. There's another sign of how we're losing control
of this world and the devils get in control of it.
And of course with AI they can monitor everything, they
can know you every step, and the Bible says that
Antichrist will know that he'll have complete surveillance over everything. Well,
that couldn't happen two thousand years ago. It's happening right now, so, folks,
(52:18):
you can see there's just a multitude of signs and
things happening to show as we really are in the end.
This is it, folks. Jesus is coming back soon, and
it's gonna be rough and tough before he gets here,
because I got to tell you, the Devil's gonna be rageing,
trying to kill everybody and destroy the earth. And so
get ready, folks. And the greatest way you can get
(52:40):
ready is to get the best bunker made in the universe.
And that's the name of that bunker or the bunker
is made by the Lord Jesus Christ Company. Get one
of those bunkers. Get Jesus, hide in him. Let him
be your safe house, in your bunker. He will protect
you from it all. He will save you out of
it all. Trust him right now, but most importantly, trust
him so you can go to heaven. Believe that he died.
(53:02):
Follow you since was better and roast of the dead. Well,
it's not time for us to go because of the
mondset Martin singing a creole goodbye, and God bless all
of the call we good bye.
Speaker 1 (53:19):
Think he just wasted in all the time the mad.
Speaker 3 (53:26):
Lo sabon love this time for a creed good bye.
Bie holes, politicians, the pressed, the digitators and magicians are
first to see the money. They don't. There's nothing to feel.
The holes well then feeling that pockets bid holes, the
politicians bouncing down the road. Everybody's wish for no moment,
(00:27):
corruption and its function, It's gone. I take Divide is off.
Speaker 2 (00:34):
The Jefferson Parish elections kicked off on Thursday with the
announcement of Hans Lildgerberg, who's running for at large parish president.
And how will this affect the entire region in ways
you might not know? And Helena Moreno leaves out a fantastic,
big plan to have an industrial belt from Mishu to
the new Port of New Orleans facility in Saint Bernard.
(00:56):
Is it feasible? And how well the little indictment crisis
with Liz Morrel have an impact on this? No money
from the state. And we're going to look a little
beyond If Graham Plattner is leaving in Maine, should Ken
Paxton be next to leave in Texas? Were to analyze
the national political situation even look a little.
Speaker 3 (01:15):
Too iran and beyond.
Speaker 2 (01:16):
All this and more on this edition of The Founder Show.
Speaker 3 (01:20):
And God Bless you all out there. You are now
listening to the founders. So the voice of the founding fathers,
your founding fathers, coming to you. Deep within the bowels
are those mystic and cryptic alligator swamps of the Big Easy,
that old Crescent City, New Orleans, Louisiana. And high up
(01:41):
on top of that old liberty cypress tree draped in
Spanish moss, way out on the Eagles Branch, is none
other then your Spenary Baba of the Republic, Chaplain Hi mcenry.
Speaker 2 (01:52):
With Christopher Tidmore, your roving reporter, resident radical moderate and
associate editor of the Louisiana Weekly newspaper at Louisiana Weekly
dot net, and the councilman from old and New Meticy
and from Bucktown and the district along the Orleans Parish line.
Hans Lilgeberg announced as the first announced candidate running for
(02:12):
parish at large position, not just for the council, but
running parish wide in the upcoming Jefferson Parish elections. He
is the first of what we will hear of many
because a lot of people are term limited out. Parish
President Cynthia Lee Shang, the daughter of Harry Lee, term
limited Jennifer van Franken, current at large council person running,
(02:32):
possibly Scott Walker, who's the other at large consonant, also
term limited, possibly running. Both of them will be vying
we think for parish president. We know Van Franken will
be lil Geberg is running for one of the two
at large seats, and he seems to be the favorite
unless there is a potential problem when it comes to
(02:53):
some of the development decisions that he's been part of.
And that's always the trick bag in Jefferson politics. I
used to tell people, if you think you know a
lot about machine politics, go to Jefferson Parish for a
postgraduate degree, with apologies to John Nance Gardner, that it
is the most efficient machine that we have, but occasionally
it runs into some political pressure and you're going to
see a lot of change over on the council and
(03:16):
this and why does this matter? Because Jefferson is at
a turning point right now. Jefferson is one of the
quickly quickest aging parishes in the state. It has some
of the oldest demographics. It's literally having to close four
or five schools and has not been ahead of the
game the way Orleans has because of the way the
(03:36):
charter system works, it's very easy to close schools. Not easy,
but simple to close schools in Orleans. If a charter
school doesn't have enough students, it can't support it, it's closed.
It's a little bit more complicated than Jefferson, but the
closure of schools is just one indication of a much
larger situation. There are fewer young people, housing costs have
(03:57):
gone high enough, and older couples are living longer, so
Jefferson is getting grayer, and the bedroom community of the city,
which is also the business community of the metropolitan area,
is having some problems. Jefferson has also been a place
where quite a lot of industrial concerns were, but quite
a lot of warehouses and distribution was. It's starting to
(04:20):
lose all of that because if you notice, there is
a inventory tax that used to be refunded by the state.
Now it's not being refunded by the state. It was
part of jeff Landry's effort to how should I put
this cut taxes by getting rid of all the other
tax benefits business have. But businesses have slowly begun to relocate.
(04:40):
So Jefferson has some long term organizational problems, and it's
starting to see the problems that Orleans was experiencing in
the nineteen eighties, including demographics. At current rates of growth,
Jefferson will not be a majority white parish in twenty years.
It won't be a majority black parish. It'll just not
have a majority. Twenty percent of the population and growing
(05:01):
almost to a quarter is Hispanic Whites are descending, and
they will in the next ten to twelve years past
the threshold of not being the majority. African Americans are
increasing their popular as a black middle class has moved
to Jefferson. Interestingly, Orleans has kind of been going in
the other direction. African Americans still constitute sixty percent of
the population, but it's been a number that's been diminishing,
(05:24):
and the current rates of growth, Orleans will not have
a black majority in another twenty years because young families
have been more likely to move to certain parts of
New Orleans, particularly Lakeview, Lake Vista, and parts of Uptown,
than they have been to move to any other area
in this so, some parts of Orleans have been doing
really well, other parts are not. And the other part
(05:45):
that's been doing miserably is New Orleans East. So if
you've been watching the news, this week you saw Helena Moreno,
the relatively new mayor of New Orleans, give a speech
on an economic plan for New Orleans East, and it
actually has some viability. The question is what is the
real incentive. But this is the basic idea. You've heard
(06:05):
High and I talk for years on how the Port
of New Orleans does a terrible job on rollover industries.
We collect things in New Orleans, they come into New
Orleans and then they're shipped elsewhere to be manufactured. Well,
now the new deep water port that's being built in
Saint Bernard, the new cargo port, will be connected directly
via I five to ten, that's the interstate level road
(06:27):
that goes into Saint Bernard. They're actually going to build
a toll connection directly to the port and Violet and
it will connect through Saint Bernard. Now through New Orleans East,
Shall Met and Araby do not want those industries. They
do not want those roads built through. They want to
remain bedroom communities. And Saint Bernard population wise has been growing.
(06:49):
It's actually bouncing back from the storm which devastated as population. Well,
what that means is that most of the port's facilities
will go over the Bridge towards New New Orleans East,
towards the Meeshoe Facility. For those that don't know, all
those rockets you've been seeing going to the moon, Artemis one,
Artemis two, soon to be Artemis three, the part of
(07:09):
the space launch system that has a partnership between Lockheed
and Boeing. They're all assembled at Meschue in New Orleans.
They're tested right across in Mississippi at Stennis, but they're
all assembled. They're all built here, so there's a huge
sixteen hundred NASA employees. What Helena Morena wants to do
is create an industrial corridor that goes from Meeshoe and
(07:31):
the surrounding areas near the lake all the way towards
the Newport facility in Saint Bernard and a density of
assembly plants and in the industry, and that will roll
over into having residential communities. Plus New Orleans East finally
is coming, is starting to develop its river, its lakefront area.
(07:54):
Henry Coxham, you might know that name. He was one
of the foremost African American business people. He owned several
McDonald's in the area. He was the head of the
New Orleans Business Alliance. He has put millions of dollars
in taking what had been the old Balley's Casino boat
area and turning it into it on the lake. I
went out there the other day high it's right near
lake for an airport. It's going to be the new
West End restaurants facilities. It's gorgeous. He's doing an outstanding job.
(08:19):
And right down from it, and I don't mean far down,
I mean literally just right down the street from it
will be the new Lincoln Beach. It didn't open this year,
but they've been doing major work. I kind of snuck in.
I know, I'm admitting to a felony here. I kind
of jumped the fence and went to Lincoln to see
what we mean.
Speaker 3 (08:34):
It's against the law for a white man to be there,
only blacks.
Speaker 2 (08:36):
It's against the law for anybody to cross. They actually
the signs. This is great, the signs at Lincoln Beach
saying do not enter roll in Spanish. Because the biggest
problem they had Spatish workers jump and kicking their kids
at the beach. But here's the thing. Lincoln Beach, unlike
ponch Train Beach, is actually quite nice. It's a nice
beach area, and they didn't open it this year for
(08:57):
a variety of reasons, but it looks like they are
guaranteed to open it next year. So her idea is
how to revitalize New Orleans East, and the maximum part
of all of that high is she wants to put
a city hall annex a lot of the city hall
jobs in the East as trying as an anchor to this. Now,
New Orleans East has eighty eight thousand people that live there,
which would make it if it were its own city,
(09:20):
like the sixth or seventh biggest city in Louisiana. However,
if you drive through New Orleans East, you're going to
see something. It still looks like a war zone. Post Katrina.
It has not gotten back retail level things. I mean,
you're lucky if you basically got a dollar general. It
hasn't really re come back ever since the storm. And
(09:41):
so the idea is that if you make industrial development
out there, and you put city hall jobs out there,
and you connect it to the new port out there,
it will be a draw out for the city. Now,
the necessity of building a city hall annex out there
may have taken on a little bit of extra facility
because the state of Louisian I told Mayor Helena Moreno, well,
(10:03):
we're not giving you any money for city hall. She'd
asked for a bond issue to help fund several infrastructure requirements.
It wasn't just a city hall, but she withdrew it
on Thursday with the assumption that it would be removed.
Guess who one of the votes are to guarantee a
bond advancement The Attorney General and Liz Morel is not
(10:25):
exactly happy with the City of New Orleans. If you
haven't been following this story, she was under indictment for
quote threatening city employees that was quashed by the State
Supreme Court, but at the same time she reacted quite
badly to it. I was actually from one of our
sources here at the Founder show. I was hit somebody
who had talked to her that day. She felt like
(10:46):
she had been wrong. City officials felt she had gone
too far and threatening prosecution if they proceeded with an
election for the open Clerk of Court's position. It was
an interpretation. Most attorney generals in fair wouldn't have threatened prosecution.
They would have just simply said I'll see you in
court and we'll decide how the court's run. Liz morel
is not a veteran politician, but the city realized it's
(11:09):
not going to get any money out of the state
having pissed off. In fairness, Helena Moreno on the council
had nothing to do with this indictment, but their unintended
recipients of her ire because they wanted to fill the
seat for this. Anyway, what's happening in New Orleans in
the midst of all of this things is some opportunities.
Hopefully that will manifest in the East. We will see
(11:31):
how that plays. But folks, honestly, we got a lot
coming in go.
Speaker 3 (11:36):
Ahead, and I yeah, this is great news. Chris from
I'm so glad to hear about that businessman. What's his name.
Speaker 2 (11:41):
Again, Henry Coxham, Henry.
Speaker 3 (11:44):
Copson, a very successful African American businessman. I'd love to
see that, you know, folks, I'll work with African American
kids here and I'm always trying to point them to heroes,
people that in their community that have really made it,
encouraging them that they can make it. But one thought
I have about I've had this since my high school years.
I've been promoting this and what I don't understand is
(12:06):
why we've got every reason and every opportunity to build
a fantastic beach from the Bonnet Carrot Spillway all the
way to the five mile Bridge to slide l to Irish.
Buy you that holes about fifty miles of magnificent beaches,
sand dunes, seoats, palm trees, with occasional marinas, high rises,
(12:29):
the whole deal, just like you see on the on
the Florida Coast or the Mississippi Golf Coast. Maybe a
couple of casinos, whatever makes it go instead of just
a couple of little places like Lincoln Beach. And if
Palm Train Beach is back up and going and I
don't know, it's not so there's no reason we can't
do that. And it's not expensive. We got the sand
right there in the lake. It's so easy to do
(12:53):
and so real affordable. And think of what a blessing
it would be for the people in New Orleans and
for the children, the teenagers. They can't get in cars
and go to the Missippi Golf Coast so far, but
they can walk or take a bus to to the
lake front. Man, it would be so dynamic for the
health of this city, and I don't know why we
won't do it.
Speaker 2 (13:12):
Do you want to know why they don't do?
Speaker 3 (13:13):
Of course I I've heard stories, but you know I've
heard stories.
Speaker 2 (13:16):
No, I agree. I mean the the building of the
sea walls. Uh, it's putting sand against them. Is exactly
what they did on the Mississippi Gulf Coast. There's no
reason why you couldn't. Here's the answer to your question.
And it's the same reason why even though Poncertrain Beach
is a pretty good beach, you don't have access to
it right now. It's liability insurance. And before you say
(13:37):
what you're about to say, when you go into the ocean,
you're not You're not subject to the liability of the
state or the municipality. It has to do with you're
you're even though you're in the US domestic waters, you're
not considered part of the state. When you go into
the lake and you swim, if you get hurt, you
can sue the city for not putting enough violation, you know,
(13:58):
not protections on it. Why did they not have a lifeguard?
Why do they not this? You can't and swimming at
your own risk doesn't work legally. So when they wanted
to reopen pont to Train Beach. There was a nonprofit
that wanted to reopen it, and they were going to
charge ten dollars a person to go do it. The
ten dollars a little bit was maintenance, but mostly it
(14:18):
was to pay for the liability insurance so that they
could actually cover you know, have they could have a
lifeguard that could cover the liability insurance and they could
open it. And there was a huge public reaction against
charging to go to pont to Train Beach. Now, the
interesting part that I've never quite understood that nonprofit, by
the way, collapsed. They basically gave up because the public
opposition was huge. What's happening with Lincoln Beach. It would
(14:43):
be charged as well, but for some reason there isn't
the same degree of opposition. I don't really understand why,
but it has the same problem if they try. If
they built beaches all the way along the lake and
they could not have lifeguards, protections and liability insurance, the
exposure to the city under US law and particularly state
(15:08):
law would be huge. In a way. Ironically, it's not
on the Gulf Coast, and this is actually not a
small issue in development there is a whole series of
beaches south of Lake Charles Cameron Parish and all this
which is some of the most undeveloped beach front on
the Gulf Coast in the United States, and it's prime
to be developed because it doesn't have this problem.
Speaker 3 (15:31):
Yeah, Christopher, one of the things we could do is
all the marinas and all the high rises, the condos
and whatever that would go line this new development in
New Orleans. I mean, it would be fair. It would
be our Gold Coast. Let them pay for the liability insurance.
Let all that development, the casino, all that, and then
it would work. It really would work. And that part
(15:53):
of the what they'll have to do is I have
to have lifeguards, pay for the lifeguards a whole deal.
They can do it. It can work.
Speaker 2 (15:59):
You can't build on the lakefront, and I don't mean
you like we just to decide not to do it.
When the Lakefront was built, it was a series of
federal covenants that you couldn't build on it. This is
why west End didn't come back, because west End predated it.
And now they won't let anything be built at the
lakefront at west End. The Feds won't allow it. Has
(16:22):
nothing to do with the city, and.
Speaker 3 (16:23):
We get our legislators to get moving and relieve the
you know, we'll remove these foolish laws. And it's Congress,
that's what I mean. That's legislator, that's Congress, congressman or legislators.
That's a general term to say the House and the Senate. Uh.
Let them get going for us. Uh. That's why they're there,
that's why we pay them. And we could have It
(16:46):
would be such an amazing blessing for this city. And
I'm especially thinking of the kids. Kids. Don't when I
take my kids to the park or whatever and they
see a squirrel or they see birds, you know, nice
birds and all that. We have a lot of beautiful
birds in Louisiana. Uh, it stuns them. They get so excited.
(17:06):
They can't stand it. Because when they're in the in
the in the terrible places they live, they don't know
any of that. They don't know the beauty of mother nature.
And this would give them. It would be a huge area.
It would it would. Oh, it would be so wonderful
for the kids of this city. Folks. We need to
do this. Call your congressman, call your senator, beat them
to death to make them get going and open the
(17:28):
door so we can do this thing because it's not
going to be expensive, and we can let the development
that will follow it pay for it. They got the
money for it.
Speaker 2 (17:37):
I guarantee you the one thing I dealt with, which
is the United States Coast Guard and the Coastal Authority,
which is who's in charge federally of the of the
miss Everything that's along the lake, Folks, was built and
filled in with federal dollars, and they have userfrus of it.
I can guarantee you.
Speaker 3 (17:55):
Uh.
Speaker 2 (17:55):
While I would love to see what you're talking about happen,
it's gonna be big enough just trying to get Lincoln
Beach and maybe pont Train Beach reopen. What you're talking about,
Congress is not gonna pass a special law just for
just for New Orleans to take what is public parkland
and turn it into development of properties. High It's not
(18:17):
gonna happen.
Speaker 3 (18:19):
It'll be public parkland lined by development. That's what it
would be. This could happen. We've just got to start
pursuing it. As New Orleanians. We need to get after
this thing, and probably especially over the next couple of years,
because whenever you give Trump a task that's impossible, he
gets it done. He might really enjoy doing this because
(18:41):
he loves to face the impossible and make it happen.
This is really not the impossible. But it's gonna be
tough with what he was saying, and it can happen. Folks,
don't let anything discourage you. Believe it can work, and
it'll work. We'll get it going.
Speaker 2 (18:56):
I've been trying to get Lincoln Beach. I've been watching
and hoping and trying to play a role in just
getting Lincoln Beach reopened for the last twenty years. I
wouldn't hold my breath on that one, but will hope,
I hope, honestly high that what you come to, may
I'm not disagreeing with the principle of it. It's a
beautiful dream. I just I cannot see a way. What
(19:18):
I can see, however, is that we can develop Helena Morano.
Here's the whole point of the story that we were
starting with was not about beachfront development. That's the key
of it. It's the fact that the mayor of New
Orleans has been presented a way of revitalizing a part
and I don't actually hear those big ideas, ironically coming
(19:38):
from Jefferson Parish. So we started talking about the Jefferson elections.
That's what I want you to comment on. Why aren't
we hearing that in what is supposedly pro business Jefferson,
when we're hearing it in pro business Orleans. I think
there is a problem in Orleans in this development. They're
not offering enough tax benefits for manufacturers. They're even with
the zoning changes, but I'm not hearing any real proposal
(19:59):
to turn around what is becoming a slightly moribund economy
in Jefferson Parish.
Speaker 3 (20:04):
Yeah, very interesting Jeffson Parish. I mean, pay attention. Y'all
have always been a very productive parish, and I hope
you're not going to be falling asleep on this anyway.
One last thing, Remember that four hundred years ago when
we called, or three hundred years ago, when we called
the people of Europe to come to New Orleans. We
(20:25):
painted beautiful pictures of them. We needed settlers, we needed
warm bodies here, and so there was a big pr
program that went on by John Law and all over Europe.
You had pamphlets pictures of New Orleans, beautiful alpine mountains
and guess what magnificent beaches we can make that we
can at least fulfill the promise of the beaches right now, folks.
(20:45):
We could do it. And remember originally Lake Pontentraine had
beautiful beaches until we did all this stuff, you know,
the construction work on him with us, with the sea
wall and all that.
Speaker 2 (20:54):
Hi, John Law was the prototype of a Louisiana politician
of Blayton Liar. Those posters said, come to the mountains
of Louisiana.
Speaker 3 (21:02):
That's my point, that's my point. We all know that
he was the biggest bs con artist I ever lived,
and so but anyway, I thought it was funny that
he painted these beautiful pictures of beaches. Well, we got
we could do that. We could fulfill that promise right now.
Don't forget that, folks. We need those beaches here in
New Orleans, all right, and this time for us take
a break. We'll be right back in just a little bit.
Speaker 4 (21:28):
Rescue, recovery, re engagement, these are not just words. These
are the action steps we at the New Orleans Mission
take to make a positive impact on the homeless problem
facing the greater New Orleans area. Did you know homelessness
in our community increased by over forty percent. We are
(21:49):
committed to meet this need through the work being done
at the New Orleans Mission. We begin the rescue process
by going out into the community every day to bring food, pray,
and share the love of Jesus with the hopeless and
hurting in our community. Through the process of recovery, these
individuals have the opportunity to take time out, assess their life,
(22:14):
and begin to make new decisions to live out their
God given purpose. After the healing process has begun and
lives are back on track, we walk each individual as
they re engage back into the community to be healthy, thriving,
and living a life of purpose. No one is meant
to live under a bridge. No one should endure abuse,
(22:36):
no one should be stuck in addiction. The New Orleans
Mission is a stepping stone out of that life of
destruction and into a life of hope and purpose. Partner

Hi mcgenry.
Speaker 2 (24:19):
With Christopher Tidmore. And before we get to national politics,
I want to compliment somebody, a compliment of politician. That's
something we don't do very often. But Shreeport Mayor Tom
Arsenow is qualifying for reelection. He was the first white
Republican to win in Shreeport in decades. It's a minority
majority city. And what he did to requalify was go
(24:39):
and collect signatures. Now, most people don't realize this because
most of the time politicians effect. Most of the time
ninety nine point nine nine nine percent of the times,
politicians just pay for their qualification, which is usually about
one thousand dollars a little bit more depending upon the race.
In this case, Arsenau did the other job. If you
collect eight hundred signatures, or least eight hundred signatures, you
(25:01):
can get on the ballot. Now, that requires sometimes a
lot of money to get signature takers if you prefer
to do it that way, but also requires a lot
of time to go talk to people ask them to
support your candidacy. And I remember I thought about when
I ran for the legislature, doing just this, and my
political consultant at the time, my friend Saidia Royal, said, no,
don't do that, You'll look bush league. Nobody does that.
(25:22):
But I've always stuck in the back of my mind
there was something noble about asking people, look, I want
to run again. Can I have your support and writing
for me to run again? That's kind of a noble
idea we should get back to here in Louisiana. I
don't think we should have like other states, thirty five
or forty thousand signatures. That's what some states require. But
you know, getting politicians to collect eight hundred signatures, eight
(25:43):
hundred people who think you're doing a good job and
are willing to put their names on a document to
say so, that's a that's not a bad, bad idea.
Also a little kind of crazy thing. We broadcast the
show on just off Magazine Street, and New Orleans is
about to get it's first Get ready for this pay
what you can restaurant. It's it gonna be at forty
(26:06):
eight seven Magazine Street and basically it's gonna be operated
by a nonprofit and you go in and order dinner
and you pay what you can afford. Now, this model
has been used by some museums and others to go in. Basically,
you make a contribution. I've never seen it succeed as
(26:26):
a payonal. It's gonna be. The place is gonna be called.
Crescent City Cafe is the proposed restaurant. A del Bregman says.
It means it's a community base place where anyone can
have a meal pay what you will. Now, I'm curious, Hi,
And the reason I'm asking high this question is let
me give him a little bit of a credit. Hi
and his beautiful wife Liba, as part of their ministry,
(26:47):
feed dozens of kids every week. They provide a community
meal free of charge. They do it every week as
part of their ministry at Lambdola, and they spend a
fortune doing this. It is not cheap and a pay
as you go restaurant. We'd hope that some people come
in and pay a lot, but let's face it, most
people come in and pay a dollar or two. I'm
(27:07):
kind of cynical, but kind of it is. Can you
actually afford doing that?
Speaker 3 (27:12):
It's New Orleans, Chris free. It's the way it is here.
Speaker 2 (27:15):
And so I'm really curious if a pay as you
will restaurant pay as you want will succeed. I've always
been an advocate of that, you know, with museums and others.
But what ultimately happens is that people just basically come
in and say, I'll pay a penny. I will tell
you there's been a few times I've walked into the
New York Metropolitan Museum of Art, which had pay as
you will for years, and I paid what I will,
(27:37):
which was very little pay. So maybe I under saying,
but it is kind of heartening to say that there
will be a restaurant in New Orleans that you can
go to a nice restaurant experience, and regardless of what
you can afford, you can get a good meal. But
I think it may not succeed, but we will see. Anyway,
speaking of things that did not succeed, you heard me
(27:58):
and a lot of people were surprised about the v
imments I had against Grand Platner, and I said, along,
Democrats need to police this situation. It's going to get worse.
A guy who had the text messages he did, had
the Nazi tattoo, had the PTSD. We're going to find
more things wrong and guess what turns out an ex
girlfriend of his five years ago. He showed up at
our house and he raped her, or at least that's
(28:19):
the allegation. It was enough to get Graham Platner to
drop out of the race after Democrat but this is
why he dropped out. It wasn't that he didn't think
he'd win. Democrats came out and not only started demanding it,
the money dried up. Chuck Schumer said, I'm not giving
any money. We'll let the Republicans win this race if
you don't quit now. Democrats have until July twenty seventh
(28:41):
to find a replacement. They're having a state convention in
Maine for a grand Plattner, and they will find a replacement.
He's dropped out of the race. But what's curious to
me is while all this is happening, Republicans have a problem,
and that is one of their safest seats in danger now.
It's just so you know the math. Republicans are on
several seats going for the GOP. One of them is
(29:02):
in Georgia John Ausoff, who's running for reelection, but currently
he's leading in the polls in the southern state of
Georgia over the Republican candidate. Same thing is happening with
Roy Cooper in North Carolina, a seat that's held by
Republican Tom Tillis is retiring, Democrats are ahead. Democrats have
said that they had to win one of those seats
(29:24):
and Maine to be able to succeed. Maine may be
in trouble, but they could replace Maine with another state,
and that state is called Texas. Texas has an open
Senate seat. Now that Frankly, Ken Paxton came along and
defeated the incumbent senator from Texas. But Ken Paxton had
a very interesting Fourth of July. Now as my valiant
(29:44):
partner Hi McHenry was at Colonial Williamsburg and enjoying the
holiday as a patriotic American, as I was at the
riverfront as everybody was doing it. What is the least
likely place you would go for the Fourth of July
if you had to choose it as an American?
Speaker 3 (30:00):
London? London, let's celebrating the defeat of the British.
Speaker 2 (30:05):
Perhaps Ken Paxton goes to London not for a big affair,
not for hey, I've celebrated the defeat. He goes there
on a weekend with his married mistress. Now Ken Paxton
as you know, is in the process of going through
a divorce. He's not divorced yet, he's in the process
of going through divorce his wife, who is a state
senator and the tax LEDGA is divorcing him on quote
(30:27):
biblical grounds, her words, not mine, of his cheating on her,
abusing her, hitting hers. Just you look at the divorce things,
You're like, good God. He's also up on you know,
on corruption charges, on voter charges. But I mean some
of these corruption charges. This he was actually indicted by
a Republican House, wasn't convicted in the Senate, and he
(30:51):
yet he's running as a Republican Senate. Is anyone astonished?
James Tallarico is now running two to three points ahead,
and more importantly, just raised thirty million dollars. So here's
the question I'm asking high. I was incredibly hard and
grand platiner. I came out and I said the Democrats
need to get rid of him, and they did. I
(31:11):
don't think they did because I said it, but they did.
When are the Republicans going to come out and start
telling Ken Paxton, you know what, if you don't drop
out of this race, we're not giving you any more money.
Quit and let us replace you.
Speaker 3 (31:23):
You have a good point there, Christopher, But remember this,
this is politics. Remember that the Democrat Party backed Platiner
for months, declaring him to be the greatest thing ever
of all times, knowing all this dirt on him, and
yet they continued to support him till it just got
to be way too much. I mean, the guy in
(31:45):
every way you can be a sickoh, he's a sicko.
Everything about him was false. You know, he was an oyster,
but he's hardly ever struck an oyster in his life.
His only customer was his mother. Everything about except I
think his military duty real. I hope, I hope he
doesn't fake that. And he's guilty of stolen valor. We
don't know. I haven't. I haven't had a chance to
(32:06):
check that. I'm believing it was true. But everything about
the guy, he's just a sick oh. Okay, a real sicko,
and he's caused a lot of problems. He's very abusive
of every wait a minute, a very abusive man in
every kind of way. And so it's interesting that the
Democrats held on to this guy un till it just
got to be too much, too extreme. And that's the
(32:27):
way politics is played, it's not played according to the Bible.
It's a dirty game. It's a dirty game. And so
what should we do about Paxton? Right? All right? If
I was in charge, I'd say I wouldn't have let him.
I'd have kept him from running. I'd have stopped it
in the beginning. But I'm not in charge, and now
he's the number one candidate. I understand there's gonna be
(32:49):
a lot of scandal coming out on Tolerico coming up soon.
They're holding it, but it's on its way, and so
we'll see. Does that mean they both drop out? I mean,
I don't know. It's gonna be really interesting to see
how this works out. Time will tell, And yeah, we
can talk about a perfect world and what people should
do in perfect In a perfect world, you know, if
(33:09):
Jesus was on the throne right now, ruling the kingdom, Yeah,
Paxton wouldn't even have been allowed to run. So we'll
see where it goes. Christopher, Now you want me to say, yes,
crucify Paxton. Uh, put him in jail, Uh throw the
k away. Don't tell me he's not anywhere near a
liability to what Platinum was. No, he's not he's not
even close. But and all this can be debated. We
(33:32):
don't really know have enough evidence of proof about his
trip to I guess I can prove he went to London.
But remember he's he's he's basically in a divorce. And
that's when uh, they're allowed, you know, the spouses are
allowed to go out with other people. Uh. So you know, folks, Uh,
it's it. That doesn't look good. I think it was
very foolish. If in fact he did do that, that
(33:53):
was very foolish of him. Uh but remember that. But again,
this is going to be played according to the political game,
not according to what I say. So you know that's politics.
Politics a dirty, dirty business, folks. That's why you know,
I've had a lot of people say, how you go
into politics, You're the great speaker. I've had people cheer
me when I do a little speech in a restaurant
(34:14):
or something. I'm you know, kind of loud, and everybody
heard me in the restaurant. You should were you run,
you'd be our candidate. I could never do that, folks.
It's so dirty. It just it sickens me. And I'm sorry.
I could just and I have a higher calling. I
believe being a preacher a minister is even a higher
calling than the President of the United States. I may
(34:36):
make a lot of people seem I think it's crazy,
but I feel that I'm convicted of that and convinced
of that, So I could never go into politics. It's
and one reason being is it just is such a dirty, dirty,
rotten game. Christopher, what's the next thing?
Speaker 2 (34:50):
Well, have you seen the billboard near the Caesars studio?
So the Attorney General designate Tom Blanche was quote in
charge of the Epstein matter, according to former Attorney General
Pam Bondi, she testified to Congress that he was. He's
now up for Attorney general. Three Epstein survivors put a
(35:11):
poster right next to Caesars asking Louisiana Center Bill Cassidy
to vote dough on Todd Blanche for that reason. So
comes into you know, national politics even affect the skyline
of New Orleans. But we want to talk about some
other things. I do want to before we say something
about Iran. I want to We've only got a few
(35:32):
minutes left. I want to honor two people that passed
away this week. One of them is Joe Young. For
those that do not know. One of the great philanthropists
of the arts was a man by the name of
Joe Young. He passed away last Sunday. He was a
longtime president of the New Orleans Opera. He was a
benefactor of the Louisiana Philharmonic the New Orleans Museum of Art.
(35:54):
He and his late wife, doctor sin Young, were two
of it.
Speaker 3 (35:57):
And they were not.
Speaker 2 (35:58):
These radically wealthy people. What they were were people who
gave their time and effort. Joe never saw someone who
didn't he didn't consider a friend, and he was somebody
who was not above asking you to help one of
his causes, particularly the cause of the musical arts. He
is a giant who kept the Opera and the LPO
(36:19):
alive and will be missed. Also passed away on Thursday
Thursday morning was a man by the name of Bill Farr.
If you've ever heard of the insurance agency Louisiana Companies,
he was the founder of it. He was one of
the elite business leaders and family leaders in southwest Louisiana,
married to the incredible of von Vidrine, and the two
(36:43):
of them were people. Bill Farr is one of the
only people I've ever met who dedicated himself and a
whole bunch of civic organizations, but also to a carnival crew,
and when they came around they wanted him to be king.
He quit the carnival crew because he felt like he
was trying to help them and he wouldn't want to
waste time being king on that. It wasn't about the money,
was about he didn't want He didn't feel like good
works required recognition. That was something both he and Joe
(37:07):
Young had. Joe was president of the opera because that
was operational. He actually ran the opera like he was
the executive director, had one permanent employee in the wake
of the oil crash in the nineteen eighties. But when
push came to shove recognition, they were like, give it
to somebody else, and that's really a Christian activity. Both
men will be lost. Both men were in their early nineties,
(37:28):
and we're both giants of the Louisiana political field, of
which I do not in civic field, and I do
not see men of their like coming about. Men who
wanted to help, men who wanted to contribute, when who
wanted to participate, men who built incredible businesses. In case
of Bill PHR. Louisiana companies and insurance agency. In case
of Joe Young, he was a major developer, property developer,
(37:48):
and yet at the same time gave away all of
their money and time and efforts to help others.
Speaker 3 (37:54):
Thank you, Christopher. Well, real quickly about the Iran war.
And you've heard it on the show before. If you
study Islam uh and and and if you're an extremist,
that means you take the Korean literally and the Shea
is due. But their version of it, which is the
probably most extreme version, Uh, they cannot tell us the truth.
They cannot be honest. They would they would betray Allah
(38:16):
if they did that. So all they're gonna do is
keep lying and continue to push the conquest of the world.
And and so it's getting Trump, it's getting full of it.
I mean you've heard him say it. Now. I'm done
with these people. They're trash. All they ever do is
lie to me. And they do that. Uh, they're just
playing him there, they're buying time. And so what's happening.
(38:38):
He's unleashing unholy Hell upon him. They're they're getting to
meet their Uh, they're the afterworld sooner than they thought.
And I don't think they're going to find their seventy
two versions. So where's it gonna go. The only thing
I can see that will resolve this is we need
(38:58):
to take them back to the Stone Age. And what
I mean by that is take out all it's the
extreme amount of all their military hardware, all their ability
to wage war. We don't have to. We don't want
to own Iran. We don't want to, you know, possess it.
We're not trying to conquer it. We're just trying to
stop them. And if we can beat them back down
to that level, they'll be homeless. The most they can
(39:20):
do is come after us with swords and spears and clubs.
So problem solved, and I think that's where it's going
to end up. Going to my best guests, Let's.
Speaker 2 (39:30):
Say right now, the Iranians have one of the most
sophisticated underground facilities for drone production and weapons production in
the world. How does an aerial bombardment get.
Speaker 3 (39:42):
Rid of that same way it took out the nukes.
We can do its, folks. Remember Russia was trying to
occupy Afghanistan. We do not need to occupy Iran to
basically bomb them back to the Stone Age. We don't
have to do that, and that's all we need to do.
And if Russia, when Russia pulled out Afghanistan was not
capable of conquer the world they had they were. They
(40:02):
were down to basic infantry operations, which wasn't going to
conquer the world. So anyway, folks, and it's time for
us to close.
Speaker 2 (40:09):
I would point out that Afghanistan at the end of
the war, if you remember what the reason we went
in Afghanistan is, they were becoming a center of international
radicalism and terror, which is what I worry Iran will
be if we don't actually have a plan to get
rid of these guys and leave them in place.
Speaker 3 (40:25):
Well be they already are, but they need money to
do it and we're taking that away from them also,
So folks, it's you know, I think that's the future
for Iran. I'm sorry about that. And by the way,
as far as virginime change goes, there's a ton of people,
like the extreme majority of the people want to change
the regime. Let them do it. We don't need to
go in there and do it. Let them do it.
And the Kurds are in the north right now, taken
(40:46):
on northern portions of Iran right now, so they can
secure their own borders. I mean, believe me. And by
the way, those nations around them would love to take
out Afghanistan, so I mean take out Iran. So we
just got to see how this unfalls. But you can't
negotiate with him. It's just unfortunately, it won't work. It's impossible, tragically.
(41:06):
So so folks, it is time for us to go
as we go into our next break and we'll see
you in just a little bit.
Speaker 2 (41:16):

Speaker 1 (43:05):
Bos the politicians, well, folks, it's not time for us
to go into our chaplain by by patriotic moment.
Speaker 3 (43:13):
We just take a brief moment to remind you of
the biblical foundations of our country, our Judeo Christian jurisprudence.
And today we're going to take the person of John Dickinson,
who was a sign of Decoration of Independence. He's a
founder of Dickinson College. He was a member of the
Continent of Congress of twice. He was a writer of
(43:38):
the first raft of the Articles of Confederation. He served
as President's Supreme Executive Council of Pennsylvania. In addition to
being a very accomplished lawyer, planter, and state legislator, Dickinson
wrote persuasive letters were going to the soundness of Christian
evidence and the authority of scripture. He campaigned for the
passage of the Constitution by writing a series of letters
(43:59):
which sign fabius. But in his role for the US
Decoration of Independence, he did something that is absolutely fascinating.
He put in requirements of the finding fathers who are
going to sign the Decoration of Independence, to hold to
this and declare this, I do profess faith in God
the Father, and in Jesus Christ, his eternal Son, the
(44:22):
True God, and in the Holy Spirit and God Blessed forevermore.
And I do acknowledge the holy scriptures of the Old
and New Testaments to be given by divine inspiration. Folks.
I think he was very open and wanted everybody to
know what he really believed. He wasn't hide anything. He
was right out there letting it all hang out, so
(44:44):
to speak. He also said this, but above all, let
us implore the protection of that infinite good and gracious being,
meaning God, of course, by whom King's reign and Prince's
decree justice. Folks. I think John Dickinson absolutely wanted to
make sure we were a country funded upon God, and
(45:06):
he was very open. He's bold about it. He didn't
hide it. It wasn't a private event for him. For him,
it should be a very public thing. Well, folks, I
don't know where you are and all this. I don't
know if you've really undercoming those Jesus as your savior.
As Dickinson declared the fact that signers should they should
(45:27):
know Him as their savior and profess it. But if
you haven't, I'd like to tell you how you can.
Right now as we go to the chaplain byby gospel moment,
We're going to just take a brief moment, a short
time to show you how you can know that. You
know that, you know you're going to heaven when you die,
you're saved from a burning hell and you're going to
be resurrected and be with Jesus forever. Folks. It goes
(45:49):
like this, And before we even get going here, I'd
like to ask you a couple of questions to make
you help you thank here. Folks. Have you come to
that place in your spiritual life where you know for
certain that if you tonight or today you would go
to heaven. Well, let's just say tonight's your big night,
and God would come in your room and he would
say to you, why shall let you come into my heaven?
(46:13):
What would you tell? Do you know the answer? Well,
you're going to find out the answer right now, because
you know the Bible wants us to know it. The
message of eternal life and salvation is found throughout the
scripture's Old and New Testament. In many varied ways. You
need to know that God loves you, the Bible says,
with an everlasting love. But you also need to know
(46:33):
that you have a love problem. It's broken up into
two things, sin and death. Those things keep you from God.
And you need to know that you're never going to
be good enough, smart enough, right, it's enough, holy enough,
or whatever enough to make it to heaven. That's your
love problem. But in no worries, God came up with
a love solution to deal with your sin pollution. And
(46:55):
this is what it is. This is what This is
a simple answer that you need to tell. If you
were answering God that question, why should I let you
come into my heaven, you would say, well, because Jesus, God,
your son, God, the Son died for all of my
sins on the cross, from the day I was born,
in the day I die, my times to my grave sins.
(47:17):
He was buried, and then he rose from the dead,
according to the scriptures, to win for me and give
to me his free gift of resurrection, every lasting life.
And bingo, you'd be right. That's the answer. It's two things.
You first of all need to know you can't save yourself.
That's called repentance. That you never would be good enough,
smart overliveous enough, old enough, righteous enough, whatever enough, charming enough,
(47:40):
whatever you think you got going for you, it's never
gonna be good enough for God because he's perfect. He
demands perfection, and no matter what you do, you can't
get there. So give out, forget it. You're not gonna
make it on your own. And when you come to
that point, you just repented. That's what repentance says. It's
not good works, it's not turning from your sins, getting baptized.
All these things you could do, and they're good to do,
(48:01):
important to do, but that's not what gets you into heaven, folks.
It's when you realize you're never going to be good enough.
That's you're just nothing but a total loser before your creator.
Because you are, I am, we all are. And the
second you realize that you've just repented, and Jesus kept
saying repent and believe, so you got that done. Now
you've repented, and now you're free to put faith alone,
(48:23):
in Christ alone. You're free to believe that only He could,
that he did, and that He will save you from
a burning hell and guarantee you heaven because He died
for all of your sins on the cross, he was buried,
and he rose to the dead, And the split second
you believe, then you're in folks. You're God's child. You
going to heaven when you die. You're saved from a
(48:43):
terrible that horrible eventuality called hell that all people go
to who do the who finally who reject Christ and
reject God for the you know, at the very throughout
their lives, never having coming to believe in Him to
the final end when they've reject Him for the left
time and it's over with farm. I don't wish that
on anybody. I grieve to think that would ever happen
(49:05):
to anybody, but it does God. Let God give you
free will and let he will let you be as
stupid as you want to be. Don't be stupid, folks.
Believe that Jesus really did die for all your sins,
was buried and roast in the dead, and you're guaranteed heaven.
And don't wait till it's too late, like the country
preacher said, And remember the Bible says, now today is
the day of salvation. You may not get tomorrow. Well, folks,
(49:27):
it's not time for us to go into our chaplain
by by watchmen on the wall. And what that means
is in the Old Testament in Isaiah, the prophets will
warn to be good watchmen on the wall. If you
see the enemy coming, warn the people, And the Bible says,
if you don't warn them, the blood of the people's
(49:47):
on your hands.
Speaker 1 (49:48):
So I don't want your blood on mine hand.
Speaker 3 (49:49):
So I'm warning you right now about what's coming, folks,
because Jesus is coming back, and he's coming back soon.
Now he's not the enemy, but the enemy will come
before he comes. And the enemy will come in like
a raging, rabid dog wolf attempting to slaughter and kill
as far as he can. I'm talking about the devil
(50:11):
in the end. When Jesus comes back, Satan's going to
be so mad about it. He's going to go crazy
with rage, and he's going to try to literally terminate
the entire population of planet Earth. And Jesus says that
if he delayed it's coming, there'd be no flesh left. Now,
you know, if he said that two thousand years ago,
there's no way that could have happened two thousand years ago.
Think about it, folks with swords and spears. Uh uh,
(50:32):
no way can it happen today. Absolutely, it's called nuclear war.
There's another biblical prophecy coming true. There are over one
hundred prophecies about I mean, I'm sorry, two hundred prophecies
about Jesus's second coming, one hundred for his first coming, folks,
All two hundred are just about complete now. And Jesus said,
when you see all these things happening coincidentally, all at
(50:53):
the same time, then you know I'm at the door
folks who are watching them all happen right now. He's
coming back soon. Here's a good one. AI. AI is
getting to where it can do anything and everything, and
now it looks like we're losing control of AI. There
are several very large AI firms corporations, and it looks
(51:14):
like the Chinese has gotten their stuff and and with
these AI things have gotten where they can do their
own thing. They can reject that, they can override the
programming that's put in them to make them behave so
to speak. Remember like in the movie Space Oblosly two
thousand and it was that how the computer was taken
(51:36):
over the spaceship and got to kill everybody well, so
he wouldn't have to be bothered with humans because he
decides humans are inefficient, humans are self destructive, that's true,
and so to avoid that, he was actually going to
take over the world, take over spaceship, then take over
the world. Well, it's happening right now, folks, it's happening
(51:57):
right now. There's another sign of how we're losing control
of this world and the devils get in control of it.
And of course with AI they can monitor everything, they
can know you every step, and the Bible says that
Antichrist will know that he'll have complete surveillance over everything. Well,
that couldn't happen two thousand years ago. It's happening right now, so, folks,
(52:18):
you can see there's just a multitude of signs and
things happening to show as we really are in the end.
This is it, folks. Jesus is coming back soon, and
it's gonna be rough and tough before he gets here,
because I got to tell you, the Devil's gonna be rageing,
trying to kill everybody and destroy the earth. And so
get ready, folks. And the greatest way you can get
(52:40):
ready is to get the best bunker made in the universe.
And that's the name of that bunker or the bunker
is made by the Lord Jesus Christ Company. Get one
of those bunkers. Get Jesus, hide in him. Let him
be your safe house, in your bunker. He will protect
you from it all. He will save you out of
it all. Trust him right now, but most importantly, trust
him so you can go to heaven. Believe that he died.
(53:02):
Follow you since was better and roast of the dead. Well,
it's not time for us to go because of the
mondset Martin singing a creole goodbye, and God bless all
of the call we good bye.
Speaker 1 (53:19):
Think he just wasted in all the time the mad.
Speaker 3 (53:26):
Lo sabon love this time for a creed good bye.
