A view from #Louisiana....never a dull moment.

[Scott Sternberg @ScottLSternberg]

There are good judges and there are bad judges. People who practice over there have a general idea who those folks are.

The Divisions that were cut, I am told, make no sense -- they are not the youngest, or the least efficient. One was a complete blindside. #lalege

Reform the judiciary. Now. The right way.

[Scott Sternberg @ScottLSternberg]

Somehow, the #Orleans judicial cuts (after all that) morphed into cutting three from criminal, two from municipal and traffic, two from juvenile.

But the rationale for cutting at least one, maybe all three of the judges at Tulane & Broad is political, I can only assume. #lalege

@SportBeatTweet And yet several politicians who don’t know better have their minds made up: it’s not public money and they don’t care.

I think it’s gonna be interesting if they find out how much the DEI coordinator makes and are required to flip flop.

YOU GUYS IT’S SELF-GENERATED REVENUE DUH

[Glenn Guilbeau @SportBeatTweet]

Taxes already being collected for new arena at LSU. @racertodd

@Cane757 Appreciate that! Enjoy your job in the athletics building!

[Scott Sternberg @ScottLSternberg]

The debate today was the first time anyone really challenged the legislative premise for all this: the bill changed form so many times it’s never really gotten the public input it deserves.

Nobody who knows what they are talking about actually thinks the bill is about safety—(I agree this is an important thing to care about, though!) or names of the athletes getting paid. The objective is hiding how much they spend on football vs baseball or tennis. It’s future proofing. And it is built around taxpayers not knowing what happens to public money. #lalege

Should be fine. Hope so!

[Piper Hutchinson @ByPiperHutch]

Louisiana legislators are rapidly advancing a bill that would hide from the public how much public money is being paid to college athletes. #lalege #lagov

@stephgracela 👀

[Scott Sternberg @ScottLSternberg]

@Cane757 I suspect you have not done your homework. I know a little bit about the finances of those organizations ;)

[Scott Sternberg @ScottLSternberg]

@Cane757 Really? Even if that were accurate… doesn’t there have to be a stadium for
TAF to sell those seats ?

So we don’t get any profit from all the public money that went into building the place? TAF got the bonds and financing handled alone ? How about the PMAC. Does TAF own that?

[Scott Sternberg @ScottLSternberg]

@Cane757 Why not? Do we not own the stadium and the streets and the lights and the trademark?

[Scott Sternberg @ScottLSternberg]

This is such a great take

The Pope should release an encyclical about the search function in Outlook.

@dfossier @JoeBTolliver I am very lucky that doesn’t exist ! LOL

[WBRZ News @WBRZ]

A state judge has ordered that Ascension Parish government officials must turn over nondisclosure agreements between officials and business leaders connected to industrial developments along the west bank of the Mississippi River in the parish, reports say. https://t.co/PLXtjUmPZ9

[Melinda Deslatte @MelindaDeslatte]

Senators remove pay increases for judges and their staff from the proposed judicial budget bill for the upcoming fiscal year. #lalege

[Scott Sternberg @ScottLSternberg]

@dfossier @JoeBTolliver Yes, that must be it, the one in this convo that is “destructive” is the guy asking why you don’t like people dancing on one of the most joyous days of their lives.

[Scott Sternberg @ScottLSternberg]

@JoeBTolliver It doesn’t but it’s interesting for that purpose too

[Scott Sternberg @ScottLSternberg]

@JoeBTolliver @dfossier Yea. So they can read…. It sure is funny that the author thought they couldn’t

[Scott Sternberg @ScottLSternberg]

@elsbet Or just claim the other guy is a liar.

[Scott Sternberg @ScottLSternberg]

That’s sweet. Glad he was also a witness the comments that there are no taxpayer funds at the LSU athletic department!

[Piper Hutchinson @ByPiperHutch]

New #LSU senior deputy AD and executive director for external affairs @HSchroyer made his Capitol debut today to help Rep. Tehmi Chassion (D) present his bill to hide revenue sharing documents from the public. Also present is executive deputy AD Julie Cromer #lalege #lagov
