Dorsey needs to come to Baton Rouge and fire 40% of the city's administration and staff. They are useless grifters.

Actually, make it 80%

I feel like BR is going to need a string of white, male, Republican mayors probably for the next 12-18 years to even begin to make a dent in the mess created by the Sharon Broome administration.
Update:

Aide done turnt herself in. Guess she knows she's cooked. Hopefully accountability will be enforced.

Gotta bring in the foot soldiers first.

Unless someone winds up dead, of course.
Yes I believe these charges are specific to kickbacks.

She probably went to the Latoya Cantrell school of Kickbacking.

However I bet the number of people w/in the BTR government who are skimming $50k, $100k, etc out of accounts with zero oversight is staggering.

It's part of the reason why everything here is broken and looks like crap.
Looks like the top aide for one of BR's most historically incompetent Mayors just got busted for taking over $200k in kickbacks.

Girl got problems now.

it looks 3rd world because it is 3rd world.
Does that mean our side gets to hold protests, riot and burn stuff down?

The RE market in BR isn't really that good when you break down the numbers.

In most desirable areas, the carrying costs of that home are around 3% annually (taxes, insurance, maintenance). So your house has to appreciate that much just to keep up.

Add in inflation (call it 3.5%) and you need to be having a home price that doubles every decade just to break even.

That isn't happening in the BR market due to the demographics. People with real money aren't moving in. The market is surviving on people trading up (or down) who have lived here 20 years.

Looks like it's finally GAME OVER for this scam:

Can't believe people fell for this MLM fraud.

I wonder if the founder is on the run now? Probably holed up with the GameCoin guy somewhere..

McMakin for Congress - Not so fast.

This isn't particularly directed at McMakin but when I read quotes like this:

"The people of our district elected me to serve in the Louisiana House of Representatives, and I am fully committed to continuing that mission. There is still too much unfinished business at the state level and too many important victories still to be won for Baton Rouge and our capital region."

it usually seems to mean they floated their name out there as a possible candidate and the response was less than enthusiastic.

How is this possibly going to work? Has the Emeril's team seen the quality of customer that is in the casino and/or hanging out at the property?

They cannot support this kind of restaurant.

I would not be surprised if this is some kind of licensing deal with Emeril and he has very little, if any skin in the game.

re: SpaceX IPO:$1.5T est valuation

Posted by RunninReb on 2/3/26 at 10:59 am to
SpaceX makes almost $1B a month in profit. That number will ratchet up as Starlink continues to build out its constellation.

xAI has over $20B in the bank.

The IPO will raise another $30-50B.

They will be just fine.
