I will announce New Orleans is open for business no more closures mask mandates vaccine passports. I will follow Robert Kennedy Jr's Children's Health defense documentation exposing CDC_WHO as a corrupt criminal pharmaceutical industrial complex, controlled by Bill Gates, suing Covid Creator Fauci for $133 billion dollars in punative damages. I will also expose Latoya the DESTROYA as key player in the World Economic Forum's GREAT RESET was purposely attempting to bankrupt our city and now it's my job to reverse her disastrous policies.
I believe its the Mayor's responsibility to bring tax money back into the City and appoint Robert Kennedy Jr's Children Health legal defense team as a special task force in the City Attorney's office, lifting New Orleans from one of most poverty criminal violent unhealthy cities to prosperity, health and peace. I will announce legalization to marijuana, consult with experts from Colorado on how they have used this money to better their cities and state.
I will announce to planet Earth that New Orleans is open for business and will not only expose the World Health Organization and Center for Disease Control as a corrupt criminal empire, but will sue the criminals for $133 billion dollars in actual damages plus punitive damages they have vomited upon the City of New Orleans. There will be no closures, no vaccine passports, and no mask mandates.
There will be a Mardi Gras, St Patrick's Day St Joseph Day Parades, Mardi Gras Indian Super Sunday, French Quarter festivals, Jazz festivals, Butterfly festivals, Danny Barker festivals Louis Armstrong festivals, Sugar Bowl, and New Year's Day celebrations without the polluting fireworks.
First, I need to educate City Council members about World Economic Forum's GREAT RESET whom's purpose is destroy America's democracy, bankrupt America's economy, and bankrupt the City of New Orleans. That's why appointing Robert Kennedy Jr's CHD as a special task force within the City attorney's Office.
All the festivals that Latoya the DESTROYA closed down.
The challenge to overcome poverty that Latoya the DESTROYA has reaped upon our city by her following World Economic Forum's GREAT RESET to bankrupt our city.
We both agreed to legalize marijuana and start bringing in billions of dollars of tax money.
I will request a FBI investigation into World Economic Forum's GREAT RESET's purpose to destroy America's democracy and bankrupt our economy. I will request the FBI & US Attorney General indict Dr Anthony Fauci for treason and murder.
Bud Abbott and Lou Costello. Who's on first
I will keep the present police chief and listen to everything he tells me on how we can reduce this violent crime spurred on by Latoya the DESTROYA.
