Deeper dives into JP Morrell’s EPIC FAILURES!
Confirmed $61,837 campaign finance violation excused as “clerical error.” Hosted Entergy CEO at fundraiser after voting to ban utility contributions. Family political dynasty with multiple ethics violations or criminal convictions.
Broke promises on STR ban, S&WB regulation, and ERA ratification. Major legislative initiative gutted by an opponent he now attacks. Skipped utilities forum as committee chair due to $50 donation while hosting CEO of company he regulates.
“Fuck Around and Find Out” attack videos, constant feuds with the mayor creating drama and chaos, threatened removals of city officials, budget freezes as political weapons. Even allies criticize the toxic environment.
Former public defender who defended criminals, championed reforms making convictions harder, wrote op-eds criticizing “overzealous prosecution”, while a close relative was found to have defrauded the police department he criticizes.
Developer donations while seeking city approvals, law firm contributions with potential city contracts, union money with regulatory interests, political dynasty influence.
Profane signage in political videos, jail keys stunt backfired with the sheriff mocking his Marvel obsession, skipping accountability forums, using budget as political weapon, explicit-rated podcast.
Promised STR ban—didn’t deliver. Promised S&WB regulation—gutted. Promised ERA ratification—failed. Promised transparency—skips forums. Promises accountability—ethics violations and family corruption.
JP Morrell presents as a reformer but delivers dysfunction, broken promises, and ethical lapses. New Orleans deserves better than political theater and dynastic politics.
