When they dismissed all the black jurors and the judge said he expected to have the trial wrapped up within two weeks, we knew the vibes.
Those people already had their minds made up no matter what was presented in that trial
Spent part of Friday showing folks from the other side of town ways we can directly improve the quality of life for tax payers in North Baton Rouge. This park is a 200 acre asset, but it has a bridge down and tires in the park.
This isn’t a new problem. The bridge has been down for over a decade. BREC hasn’t made it a priority but we are spending $50 - $80 million on the LSU Lakes, this trail is less than a mile from Southern University. We can’t continue to invest in one area of town and let the other side sit in decay.
@mayorsidedwards said he wanted people to see the things I showed him. Time will tell if the improvements happen.
I’ve been fighting for North Baton Rouge for a decade. If we don’t speak up for our communities others will define the narrative and we the people end up on the short end of the stick. Speak the truth even when it’s uncomfortable.
Doing my part and then some, always.
This is real life Civics for the People.

Scott Pelley issues new statement after being fired by CBS for opposing their pro-MAGA bias:
“New management has instructed me to inject falsehoods and bias into a politically sensitive story. I’ve been told to include assertions that are unverified. To date, in every case, I have managed to ignore these instructions or refuse them.
Recently, politicians have been invited to choose correspondents for interviews on the broadcast. Giving politicians control over 60 Minutes interviews is not how this is done.
Finally, incompetence and unprofessionalism in the new management have wreaked havoc. In a case involving one of my stories, the entire program came within 19 minutes of not getting on the air at all.”

Shoutout to @mariangbaiwon and @katii3bug for kicking off @louisianadeservesbetter the effort to recall Jeff Landry.
The location here is 2320 Drusilla Lane. Trust me you’ll see the line. People are parkIng at the park a few doors down and every parking lot between.
Gov. Jeff Landry and Republicans may be waking up a sleeping giant with the racism of these maps. It’s people of all backgrounds and ages standing in that line in the middle of the day on a Friday.
I asked the people in line if they were voting tomorrow everyone yelled yes. I asked how are you voting on the governors amendments, everybody yelled No.
You have power in your hands right now to sign the recall and vote No on all 5 Amendments tomorrow. Power to the People, always.

There was an emotional moment at Southern University's graduation in Baton Rouge as leaders awarded a posthumous degree to Caleb Wilson.
Wilson died in a suspected hazing incident in 2025.
