Have you heard of Guidehouse Consulting? You should check to see if they're up to any shady shit in your neck of the woods.

I think it's a bit more complex than that, because it still depends on the conviction.
Clearly he is not getting off from some kind of murder charge. I don't know much about the trial, but I would assume his lawyers are arguing a state of physical and emotional distress which would have kept him from being in his right mind when he allegedly shot the guy.
It would be a pretty bold move for a "free country" to execute someone like that. Not saying it wouldn't happen, but I know we're already being monitored for human rights violations by other countries. It would seem to be a weak hand to play, but then again strongmen usually play pretty weak hands when they want to prove how powerful they are. We have entire histories worth of atrocities to prove it.
The consulting company that Louisiana Governor's DOGE taskforce met with in secret back in late Jan/early Feb has an 8 year contract with the FBI and has been partnered with Homeland Security since Jan 22nd, 2025.

For a second I was going to say it's like they're trying to make us hate them more somehow. Then I realized, yeah, that's probably exactly what they're trying to do. Antagonizing people into violence is the goal.
I'm not sure if it's to use it as an excuse to declare martial law, or kick off a civil war, or both? Idk I guess I've just been around enough passive aggressive pieces of shit in the past to recognize it when I see it.

Just learned the DC consulting firm Louisiana DOGE has been working with has an 8 year contract with the FBI from 2024 and has been working with Dept. Homeland Security
Idk,.I'm finding it might actually be useful to spread local information if you stick to some local subreddits
Its kind of weird so many vaccine manufacturers shares are down this week, but not all of them.

Congrats! I hope this momentum keeps up across the country!
In this case the hospital cannot afford to pay both the salary of CEOs and doctors that provide care.
So cuts have to be made somewhere. You're suggesting the rational thing to do in this case would be to cut the doctors and keep the CEOs so that they can keep lights on in an empty building. That's so crazy it just might work. Problem solved.
Yep fuck Sinclair broadcasting too, but as you can see, the only news covering this is from local Indiana news reporting.
How is a hospital "functioning" if there's nobody there to provide care? That's kind of the whole point of hospitals.
Yeah fuck the intercept, not really the point.
My point is that while big news networks are fucking around it's the locals news and individuals who are getting fucked over the most by this bullshit who are actually trying to make sure this shit doesn't get buried
Great, I'm actually trying to find a new primary care doctor right now.
Tried to call my old office to see if they could help me and it rang and rang until it eventually hung up on me.
Just tried to contact one the main number to make an appointment and got a voicemail telling me to leave briefly message.
Tried to call a third number the nurses help hotline provided me and it rang once and hung up.
I'll probably just end up going to CVS again and using their minute clinic, which actually seems to have a better handle on healthcare at this point than the giant corporation that has purchased every hospital in the area.
But I'm glad we have CEOs at every campus making sure everything runs so smoothly even though there are no doctors available to provide healthcare.
True, there was not a whole lot of mainstream media coverage of assange but there were journalists from places like the intercept and I believe rolling stone or vice also covering it.
In this case, and many cases all over the country lately, I'm finding that tiny local news outlets are doing a better job keeping us informed than mainstream media or even larger less mainstream news outlets.
Also realized that if this was a case of spying it would seem very unlikely he would have a lawyer at his residence while it was being raided but who tf knows. Not us.
What are you talking about. State secrets are well protected by Elon Musk
Yeah, if only we had a free press that could keep the public informed about matters so we could know what the fuck is actually going on anymore.
It's especially weird the university just didn't release a statement about it or anything.
It definitely could go either way
If we actually still had a free press, you would expect this to be getting some coverage and for there to be some kind of statement from the University's lawyers saying they were cooperating with the FBI if this guy was legitimately wanted for shady dealings.
It's fucking sad that we all read this and have to think, is this the FBI handling a legitimate threat or is this why DHS keeps complaining about Civil Rights Offices standing in their way.

Then what is the point of having a monopoly control everything in the first place? If every campus needs its own CEO to be making decisions what exactly is the benefit of having LCMC or Oschner controlling all of these hospitals?
It seems like you could be providing better healthcare with less bureaucracy if you just let individual hospitals take care of patients. Especially since most of these hospitals already existed before these companies came in and saved the day by purchasing all of these hospitals.
EPA cutting $70 million in funding for Louisiana agencies, nonprofits, records show
The whole point of having a giant monopoly is that all hospitals are under the same control with the same policy and regulations.
This is not normal.
Certainly not enough of them. Especially not on smaller levels.
It's a sad fact, but even though so many Democrats claim to be anti establishment, many are in fact part of the establishment and receiving giant donations from banks and corporations.
It's one of the first things AOC pointed out when she was elected.
On the other hand so many Republicans claim to love small government and transparency, but many are also getting funded at the state level by some very shady corporations and groups like SPN and the heritage foundation.
The SPN is a network created by one of the earliest funders of Heritage Foundation. They use money to influence policy at the state level to make it seem like small government and representative of individuals in the state, but really it represents interests of some very powerful people and their corporations.
I'm not saying any of this as an attack on people with views that lean democratic or Republican. I only point it out because we all need to shift away from the idea of treating politics and politicians as a sports team that we have to support bc they're representing "our team."
Its kind of a sunken cost fallacy to keep supporting a team that won a championship decades ago when you realize lately they seem to be throwing a lot of games. Except with sports it is a team paid to represent a local city or state.
Politicians are humans like anyone else. There's good and bad ones and they're capable of corruption and change just like anyone else.
Black and white thinking is what got us here and what keeps dividing us as a country while individuals continue to profit from it.
