## Resource

Seventy-five-year-old Louisiana State Treasurer John Fleming is launching a fiery Senate bid, self-funding his campaign while leveling explosive accusations against Governor Jeff Landry—claiming election interference, secret deals, and even a job offer at the CDC in exchange for dropping out. A former Navy doctor and Congressman, Fleming says he’s seen this game before and is now fighting back with bold policy stances on carbon capture, property rights, and a proposed ban on stock trading by lawmakers. But his campaign’s tone has turned contentious after he shared a graphic video implying his opponent’s win was due to her late husband—drawing sharp rebukes from Landry, who dismisses Fleming as unfit. With Trump’s endorsement of the opponent and escalating claims, this race is heating up fast—and voters are watching closely. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
