  • National Guard, LA Rouxgaroux, & Shreveport Squatting

    National Guard, LA Rouxgaroux, & Shreveport Squatting
    Oct 1 2025
    You're listening to American Ground Radio with Louis R. Avallone and Stephen Parr. This is the full show for September 30, 2025.

    0:30 We discuss Governor Jeff Landry’s bold move to request up to 1,000 Louisiana National Guard troops to combat violent crime in cities like Shreveport, Baton Rouge, and New Orleans. We break down the realities of rising homicides, carjackings, and gang violence, and why perception of safety matters just as much as the crime stats themselves.

    9:52 Plus, we cover the Top 3 Things You Need to Know.
    • The Environmental Integrity Project reported today that big oil companies could end up netting $3.5 billion in tax breaks for their carbon capture projects in the state of Louisiana.
    • Louisiana Attorney General Liz Murrill announced an arrest warrant against an abortion doctor in California.
    • Today was the last day of operations for Planned Parenthood clinics in the state of Louisiana.

      13:30 We dig into the Army Corps of Engineers’ $51 million drainage project in New Orleans, a long-promised initiative to protect the city from flooding. The hosts explore why New Orleans is more than just a cultural gem—it’s a critical national security and economic hub, located at the mouth of the Mississippi River, the largest navigable waterway in the U.S.

      16:09 Owner of the Louisiana Rouxgaroux arena football team Keith Carter joins us onthe phone to discuss the exciting launch of Louisiana’s only arena football team. From its roots as the Shreveport Rougarou to its statewide rebranding, the team brings family-friendly, high-energy football to Brookshire’s Grocery Arena in Bossier City.

      23:30 Following warnings from President Trump and RFK Jr. about potential risks of using Tylenol during pregnancy, three members of Congress sold stock in the company that manufactures the drug. We break down why this raises serious ethical questions, the potential conflicts of interest for lawmakers on committees overseeing the FDA, and how current loopholes make this kind of insider trading legal for Congress.

      26:42 We Dig Deep into Shreveport’s new anti-squatting ordinance and the unexpected benefits city police are seeing. Since the law passed, officers have arrested dozens of squatters — and in the process uncovered outstanding warrants and serious crimes (bank fraud, arson, child endangerment). We explore the balance between compassion and public safety, the costs to property owners and neighborhoods, and why proponents say enforcing the law can protect vulnerable people and revive struggling communities.

      33:30 Plus, today marks a big change in how the U.S. government handles payments: paper checks are being phased out for most federal programs. Social Security, SSI, and tax refunds will now be delivered primarily through direct deposit or prepaid debit cards, with only limited exceptions. We break down what this transition means for taxpayers, seniors, and anyone concerned about fraud, stolen checks, or digital access.

      36:35 And we have a little fun guessing the best baseball movies of all time according to the MLB. Play along!

      40:35 And we finish off with a word from Magnolia Pit BBQ.
