BANNED FROM THE MALL

FREAKY FRIDAY - MERRY CHRISTMAS
Corrupt local politicians and appointed ethics officials treated public funds like their personal holiday piggy banks. Leaked lease contracts and state complaints detail a cozy system where connected insiders trade votes and land deals for personal cash. Unchecked power always leaves a dirty trail for citizens to clean up.
WONDERFUL WEDNESDAY
Council leadership weaponized city subpoenas to gather evidence for friendly litigants suing the municipality for cash payouts. Internal municipal files show politicians pushed hidden resolutions to channel taxpayer dollars straight into personal legal settlements. The Ripp Report uncovers the secret deals happening right under the public’s nose.
HAPPY DAYS
Our ongoing exposure of Baldwin County exposes how politicians, judges, and sheriffs built an untouchable good-old-boy network. Sealed court files and official correspondence demonstrate how insiders milked BP oil funds and concealed private oil discoveries. The Ripp Report sheds light on the dark reality behind their celebration.
LAGNIAPPE
Lagniappe implemented an online paywall just as local officials and Lee Lawson moved to mismanage millions in public land deals across Baldwin County. Records show how key media outlets ignored massive government scandals while suppressing critical news from the taxpayers paying for these blunders. The Ripp Report exposes what local papers tried to hide behind a paywall.
