We'll assume the actors were the same - rallies were again funded by the same donors as before, the same social media platforms boosted the same QAnon-type theories, and the same party leadership gave the same speeches and support as before (e.g., Mike Johnson again files a lawsuit to halt election certification, Trump gives another speech talking about "fighting" and "stolen" elections, etc.).

In my own case, seeing Musk's behavior first in the White House and then Epstein files was the wake up call. The world's richest man isn't bright or even sober, we just weren't equipped for how evil he could be.

Read through the Epstein emails. I'll quote one exchange between Epstein and Musk about his island, one Musk had lied about:

Epstein: "Understood , I will see you on st Barth, the ratio on my island might make Talilah uncomfortable"

Musk: "Ratio is not a problem for Talulah"

There will be more in the files still under lock and key, ones we've been told by their protectors will never be released. And how many more billionaires are in those files, perhaps preparing for sedition to keep their secrets sealed? How many of their products do we trust are not the work of poison hands? What do bring into our homes, put on our bodies, and even feed our own children?

And will those hands stay in our lives?

Reddit has been the go-to product for pro-people subs, this one included. It is also owned and ultimately answer to a small circle of billionaires. Many people - often those distrustful of wealth concentration - rely on Reddit's algorithms as effectively their main funnel of information.

My thoughts are this: If something on Reddit actually came to pose a legitimate threat to billionaires as a class, it would just quietly vanish. You can already do it quietly through AI, either through the automated moderation or even just through subtly pushing things above it. Both methods are already happening openly against "liberals" on x.com.

It can be fun to post on here, but what we actually need is a true decentralized platform where the algorithms can't be fudged by a couple of billionaires. There's certainly peer-to-peer technology out there, but just forming networks in the actual world, joining the political process, and making real and physical change are all things they can't fudge with through the algorithm.

Their gerrymander is not just about their racism; it's also about keeping their billionaires out of jail. To date, over half of the Epstein files stay under lock and key. The few released already turn the stomach, and these are just the half they showed. Yet their cover-up would end with just one election loss; the exposure that would follow could be a fate far worse than death.

We also can't afford to lose.

The truth is still not fully hidden, there will be those who know. Through a bargain bribe, our defense would now be every bit as compromised as our "betters" on the list. What couldn't be decided through the smallest act of blackmail?

Our lawmakers have always chosen power over children, and this time they also chose a nation under threat. So long as their cover-up continues and their Epstein class exists, we all live at the mercy of any power with the truth.

1. Research your state's laws.
2. Research your local politicians, and find the best one to remove.
3. File your petition.

It really is that easy. If it can happen in Louisiana, it can happen in your state. It may seem an uphill battle, but we're now in strange times where a major political party openly demands armed insurrections, masked enforcers, and now sex crime cover-ups. Such times are also when your simple act of good can change the course of history.

1. Look up your representatives here, https://www.legis.la.gov/legis/findmylegislators.aspx
2. Look up their campaign donors and voting record - would recalling them make our state measurably better?
   1. Campaign contributions can be found on the Louisiana Ethics Administration Program.
   2. Example of a vote: Votes on the forced labor homeless bill
3. Find your Vice Chairman, and then fill out these forms here to make your stand against the Epstein class.

Though they'll be remembered for their Jan 6 Insurrection and now their sex crime cover-ups, it's time for our good people to make history as well.

$32 million of the $38 million Gov. Landry raked in came from just a privileged few in our state, the "betters" who can drop $5,000 on a single politician. Few of us could give that much, but their dollars are no gift. The top named person in this public list owns a heavily-subsidized chain of oil extraction companies.

And in this state, oil companies don't pay taxes; they take taxes. Billions in infrastructure for their wells while our cities and coastlines crumble, dying lands and bodies from prosecution-protected mass poisonings, and now even children carry the cost of their crimes and cover-ups.

This cruelty is not enough for our Epstein class. Now they want to steal your vote and to finally seal your fate.

If you don't trust our state at the mercy of their whims, here's the Facebook post for the Jeff Landry recall petition. Sign it as fast as you can, and spread this to your friends. Keep checking if you can't sign, there will be be more locations coming.

It's time for us to save our home and time to save our kids. It's time for us to make a stand against the Epstein class.

Many parts of our state that just aren't physically safe for minorities or interracial groups to travel through - with a backlog of unsolved crimes - and that is due to an inadequate or compromised local law enforcement. This situation isn't fair or normal, but it has been tolerated. We've already tried just letting them be themselves in rural pockets that minorities learn to route around. They've since done things like storm our Capitol and threaten to send masked gunmen to our polls; they've made themselves our problem.

Now, imagine the solutions to that problem with a new administration and federal law enforcement.
