  Jeff Landry Lashes Out at Advocate

  Sep 28, 202617 min

  Gov. Jeff Landry took to X to say the Advocate is distracting Louisiana with "a tiger in Oregon," and that the real story is the Liz Murrill texts. On this episode of B4U SCROLL, JD Carrere makes the case that it looks like a Governor who feels the walls closing in. A former LSU provost testifying under oath that the Governor's live tiger push ended with yelling in his office. Questions over secret NDAs on the SpaceX and Meta deals. A standoff with Mayor Helena Moreno that has him going around City Hall through Councilmember Eugene Green. Instead of answering any of it, he points everyone toward the one fight where he thinks he's on offense. When you're comfortable, you don't have to tell people what the biggest news is... you just let them read it.

  Budgets and Bears

  Sep 21, 202623 min

  Despite the best efforts of a vocal minority in the City of New Orleans to create distrust, New Orleans elected officials gear up to head into the 2027 City Budget Sessions. City officials have done their best to balance a budget with a $220 million deficit left by the last administration, unfortunatly the city is still $100 million in the hole. They absolutely have their work cut out for them, especially considering the massive amount of misinformation that will need to be combated by bad actors like Blake Arcuri and Laura Cannizarro Rodrigue, a pair of MAGA trolls who hate that Black people in New Orleans have the power to control their own community, void of MAGA influence.

  New Orleans just approved a historic first: Black Education History Week.

They dig into the representation gap in our schools and explore how celebrating Black education as a living legacy changes everything: from belonging in the classroom to what it means for Black educators to have their excellence officially recognized by the city.
