For those who don’t know: in New Orleans high school marching bands practice after school on neighborhood streets and it’s a delight.
The sound of Mardi Gras season >>>>>

These students work so hard and are so talented. What a blessing on our community

As the first day of 2026 comes to an end, I want to pause and remember the 14 lives that were tragically lost just one year ago. My prayers are with the victims' families and the City of New Orleans as we continue to heal. 🕊️

We are officially in the #EndGame of the Cantrell Admin and the current mayor is hellbent on her scorched-earth exit strategy.

From vetoing budgets to pulling banners—and even attempting to deficit spending on JIRR, putting city employee payroll at risk... (cont'd)

My father passed July 1987, right when this hit cable. I played this scene many, many times. What more can he said about this amazing, almighty, beautiful scene that hasn’t been said? Rob Reiner is one of the Greats. youtu.be/kBC5Z_bH74U?...

COME AT ME BRO🕹️

This Saturday, I'm hosting a Marvel vs Capcom Tournament with @nordcommission and @nola.grown at the Milne Rec Center, and I challenge YOU to beat me. If you somehow manage to beat me at my own game, you get a chance to win a PS5.

In partnership with local community and faith leaders, the @nolacitycouncil called on federal immigration forces to ensure the dignity and rights of every individual and to be transparent about their operations here in New Orleans.
December 5, 2025 at 10:07 PM
PLEASE SHARE! 📣

ICE is here in New Orleans, and the @nolacitycouncil has created a web portal to collect evidence of potential abuse by immigration officers. If you witness any potential abuse, visit www.council.nola.gov/knowyourrights to anonymously submit video or photo evidence for the record.

Happy Friday, New Orleans! I hope everyone had a great Thanksgiving holiday.

Today, I wanted to go over an important story from David Hammer at WWL that you may have missed, and it's about the JIRR program.

#UPDATE City's Budget Deficit

After extensive negotiations, the Louisiana Bond Commission approved the City's request to receive $125M in bond funding to help make payroll and ensure that municipal employees are paid.

I am 100% with Jason Hughes for City Council District E. He is a true workhorse who fights day and night for his community. From holding The Willows accountable to standing up against billboards in District E, Jason gets the job done.
