The Freeman Report

We are two days away from a major election day that may change the complexion of both the House and the Senate.  Polls have been wrong recently but not this much. Collge football continues to see big upsets every week and this past weekend was no exception.  Will there be a few more this coming weekend? And finally, the WNBA season has come to a close but the players from both teams left the court...

Mid-terms are less than 3 weeks away and teh Dems are primed to take the House and maybe the Senate.  A few upsets this past weekend in college football.

A few political comments such as one from Angie Nixon, the DSA candidate running for Senate in Florida where she believes she does not need to pay taxes to the IRS, nor federal student governenment loans.  Also comments on the Republican Mid-term convention and finally a look at a few key college football games including the big one - LSU vs Ole Miss. KF

LSU has been in the national media for the last week as it tried to sign several "pro football players" to its roster.  Forty players sued the SEC to try and reinstate their eligibility and the case were heard in a Baton Rouge court where the judge basically ruled in their favor.  The SEC turnaround and sued LSU in federal court in Birmingham, AL.   The 16 leaders of the SEC schools will...

The biggest game in week #1 is LSU and Clemson.  LSU has also created a little controversery with trying to sign players that were with NFL teams during the preseason.   A Teacher's Union is pushing back on Mamdami because he does not want to give education paraprofessionals a $10,000 bonus and potential raise.  Is there a leak in the dam? Trump is still being Trump even though the war he sai...

Angie Nixon was elected in the Democratic primary in Florida and will face Republican Ashley Moody in the November Election.  NIxon is an avowed DSA member who wants Free Medicare for all, Free Affordable Housing and much more.  How does she propose to pay for it? Enes Freedom, a former NBA player has declared for the 2027 WNBA draft but was thrown out of a game in Chicago for wearing a T-shirt th...

Once again my son John, Ten year old Grandson Foster and I make our College Football predictions for the upcoming 2026 season.  We also had special guest picker Andrew Williams.  Andrew does a Game Day set in Baton Rouge and posts in on youtube.  He had us on last year and he always has keen insight.   We also made our Heisman choices and what teams will make the playoffs and win the national cham...

Wisconsin managed to not elect DSA member Francesca Hong in the Democrat primary for Governor.  She lost by less than a point when the polls showed her up by double digits.  Who are these pollsters?  A few other races  with some suprises.  My take on why the DSA is gaining traction and then a few musical notes including Barry White.   KFb

By all accounts the polls said Abdul Ed Sayed would defeat Haley Stevens by a landslide yet he won by a little over 14,000 votes with over 1&1/2 million cast.  How did the polls get it so wrong?  I knew Northern Virginia was pretty Blue but thought central VA was more red.  She may not be a declared DSA member but Shannon Taylor, former Henrico County Commonwealth attorney certainly has some l...

Michigan's primary is only a few days away and it appears as if Abdul El Sayed has opened quite a lead which would give the DSA another victory.  A few weeks ago it seemed as if Haley Stevens was a few points ahead but now El Sayed is about 13 points up.  This after he claimed in a debate he is really a capitalist.  Right!! He still believes in the DSA Platform espouses their views.  Is this...

Michigan will be the next big state to have its primary and Abdul El-Sayed, a democrat socialist. faces off against Haley Stevens. Will the DSA continue to make waves? Also two Grahams in the news this week along with VP JD Vance and a girl named Sophie.

Andrew Hundley was sentenced at the age 15 to life in prison for a heinous crime.  Due to a Supreme Court ruling regarding life sentences for minors, he managed to get out after 19 years with time served.  He could have quietly tried to assimilate back into society working a regular job, but instead he chose to give back and while attending LSU to get a degree he co-founded the Louisiana Parole Pr...

This past week another Democrat Socialist, Melat Kiros, defeated long time Denver congresswoman, Diane Degette.  Kiros has even made the comment that the U.S. deserved 9/11.  Is this where we are heaed? Also give my take on Stephen A. Smith lambasting the L.A. Lakers for trading for Walker Kessler and the fact that their three best players are now white.  Really and no comments from ESPN or pundit...

This past week New York City voted for 3 Democrat Socialists  for Congress and 5 others for state or local offices.  All supported by Mayor Mamdani.  Is this where the Democrat Party is headed?  I believe a fight for control of the party is coming. Last night Louisiana republicans elected Julia Letow to be in the runoff for U.S. Senator.  Even in her speech she said she thinks Trump is the greates...

I want to extend a Happy Father's Day to all Dads but I pay tribute to my Dad, who to me was the greatest Dad of all time.  He passed away 15 years ago yesterday and I miss him dearly. KF

This is the first in a series of what I am calling Weekly Digest.  It will be about current events.  Still will continue to do other topics as well. Enjoy, KF

California held elections last Tuesday and they are still not close to declaring who will be in the runoff for both L.A. Mayor and Governor.  This in supposedly the Tech Capital of the world.  They may still not be complete a week out and does this play into the Democracts hands?   Also a little more on my home state politics, Sissy and a music note. Enjoy, KF

In less than two weeks we have seen several long term and prominent Republican Senators and a U.S. Congressman get defeated as Trump endorsed their opponents.  Bill Cassidy, a friend and former school mate came in 3rd here in Louisiana while long term Texas Senator, John Cornyn lost in his primary to Trump endorsed AG Ken Paxton.  One of the two candidates in the runoff in Louisiana even stated th...

There is a lot going on in the around the world with the war, in our country constant protests and even in my state with a recent Supreme Court Ruling.  Just giving my take on a few of these and even offer a few possilbe solutions to gerrymandering. KF

Last week there was a senseless killing in my home town of Baton Rouge at the Mall of Louisiana when shots were fired by two rival gangs.  The mall is located in what most people would call a safe part of town.  Not anymore.  At least that is the story so far.  A week prior 8 children were murdered by their father in Shreveport, LA over a domestic dispute. The other night another assassination att...

In this episode I talk about our 18 year old teacup yorkie and getting the call after her six month check-up fromt the Vet saying you need to come in to talk about your dog.  I knew it was not good at that point. But here is the story. KF

Have you traveled since the latest partial shutdown started.  In major aiports lines can weave all the way outside as one did in New Orleans.  It actually went into the parking garage.  Just got back from Puerto Rico and that airport was crazy but just about everyone was civil.  Saw two people who never even made it to TSA screening and missed their flights.  Who is to blame?  To me the answer is...

Well by Scott the Khakis are now off and I explain in this episode what that meant.  The Elite 8 tournament is finally over but not without some questioning of the seedings just prior to the start of the tournament.   By halftime of several games there looked to be potential upsets.  How did they turn out - listen. Enjoy, KF

By Scott I intend to wear my khakis as long as the Bears are winning. Finally, the Baton Rouge CSAA Elite brackets for 2026 are out and the tournament begins this week.  In my opinion any one of five teams can win the tournament with the championship game taking place this Sunday night.  Really, any one of the eight teams that made the tournament can win it all but I give my take on why I think on...

One of the very first podcasts I did was 'Why men wait until it it too late to go to the doctor'.  Recently I did not heed my own podcast advice.  I do wish to thank the medical that is helping me ge through this.  Just wished I would have listened to what my body was telling me.   So I urge you to listen to your body and if something does not feel right, do not wait as I did.
