You might think you hate Donald Trump enough, but you don’t
Unbelievable. At 9 PM on a Friday night, Trump just waived nearly every sanction the Lindsey Graham bill imposed on Russia. whitehouse.gov/presidential-…

Nov. 1, 1966 — On All Saints Day, at the Pontchartrain Hotel on St. Charles Avenue, NFL Commissioner Pete Rozelle, joined by House Majority Leader Hale Boggs and Senate Majority Whip Russell Long, announced that the City of New Orleans had been awarded the league’s newest franchise.
Unknown publicly at the time was that Rozelle had cut a secret deal with the two powerful members of Louisiana’s congressional delegation. In return for Boggs and Long’s support for legislation containing an antitrust exemption that would allow the NFL to merge with the American Football League, the Commissioner ensured that the Crescent City got its own professional football team. #LaLege #WhoDat

Personally, I want to watch the debate between Kennedy and Mitch Landrieu. Louisiana’s John Kennedy says he’s considering presidential run: ‘Why not me on a rainy day?’ nola.com/news/politics/john-… via @nolanews

the NRSC chair sitting on a call talking about OH, TX, AK, KS, and AK as "toss up" races in September #ok
NRSC chair Tim Scott on a call w/ reporters a little while ago:
- "We are looking at a record number of toss-up races in the country, but the good news from our perspective — they’re all within striking distance." Mentions NC, ME, IA, AK, OH, NH, MI, MN, TX and GA.
- KS “more competitive than I’d like to see,” but still confident Marshall will win
- Paxton “just wrong” on midterm convention. It was "a boost in the right direction" for GOP.
Maybe the board is “athletics obsessed”.
Wowza! Former #LSU Provost Roy Haggerty unloaded about what prompted him to leave the university: @LAGovJeffLandry’s bid to revive LSU’s tradition of bringing a live tiger to football games. Haggerty said Landry started yelling during a meeting about it #lalege #lagov

Email to TV pool subscribers: "Effective today, the TV pool will not be covering events designated as pool coverage of the President. This follows the White House's position preventing CNN from fulfilling its assigned pool duties. There will be no replacement pool put in place."

LSU Football and Lane Kiffin are headline news today. Yes, even in print.

can anyone tell me what @LSU board of supervisors actually supervises? They do need to review their liability insurance policies though!

Stars & Stripes is one of the signifiers of how odd the American experiment really is. The most powerful military in the world has its own publication that is often critical of US policy and regularly reports on matters embarrassing to the military. Where

Louisiana more interested in politics, less polarized than Americans, according to survey. #lalege lailluminator.com/2026/08/13…

Remember when Freedom250 spilled some diesel on the National Mall in May?
It cost the National Park Service nearly $2 million to clean that up, according to the rushed, no-bid contract I just found.

Got a pitch about how Julia Letlow will be Louisiana’s first female senator, presumably from an alternate reality where Mary Landrieu never served three terms, Rose Long never succeeded Huey and Elaine Edwards was never appointed by Edwin #lalege #lagov
ALT Three Illuminator-ready angles: 1. Letlow becomes Louisiana's first female Senator — a demographic first in a state whose federal delegation has been male since statehood. Simultaneously, Landry's

For the nation’s 200th birthday, Washington built a metro system, museums, gardens, and reflecting pool at the Capitol.
For the 250th, it’s filled with black fences, white tarps, green algae, and brown grass.
A look at the mess that is DC:
