Indian farmers protest against U.S. trade deal

Thousands of Indian farmers gathered across the country to demonstrate against a longawaited trade deal with the United States, an agreement that protesters say could hurt domestic agriculture.

Thursday’s rallies — which went ahead even after the U.S. watered down its language around the deal — underscore the challenge faced by Prime Minister Narendra Modi, as he seeks to slash punitive U.S. tariffs while still shielding India’s rural economy and maintaining some trade with Russia.

India’s tens of millions of small farmers are a vital political constituency in the world’s most populous nation, and any threat of sustained nationwide protests evokes memories of 2020 and 2021, when growers paralyzed the capital and mounted Modi’s most significant challenge in over a decade at the helm

Crowds of farmers in Punjab — joined by industrial and rural workers chanted slogans against Modi and U.S. President Donald Trump, as the gathering also voiced opposition to other rural policies, including employment initiatives and proposed legislation on seeds and electricity Commerce Minister Piyush Goyal has emphasized that sensitive agricultural products, including dairy and poultry, are excluded from negotiations, and has said would be no concessions on imports of key genetically modified crops, a hotbutton issue for the ruling party

Hospitality executive named for park service

President Donald Trump has nominated for director of the National Park Service an executive from a hospitality company that holds extensive contracts with the agency he would lead

The nomination of Scott Socha late Wednesday follows widespread firings within the Park Service as part of efforts by Trump’s Republican administration to sharply reduce its size.

The administration also has faced blowback for the removal or planned removal of national park exhibits about slavery climate change and the destruction of Native American culture.

Administration officials have said they are removing “disparaging” messages under an order last year from Trump. Critics accuse it of trying to whitewash the nation’s history.

Socha is a president for parks and resorts at Delaware North, which describes itself as one of the world’s largest privately owned hospitality and entertainment companies, with more than $4 billion in revenue in 2022.

The company provides services in at least six national parks including Grand Canyon Yellowstone and Shenandoah, said spokesperson Cait Zulewski.

The Buffalo, New York-based company has more than 40,000 employees, according to its website. Socha has been with it since 1999 and will continue in his role there while his nomination is pending, Zulewski said.

The company referred further questions to the White House, which did not immediately respond to an email from The Associated Press. The Park Service has gone more than a year without a confirmed director Community college bus crashes in Iowa; 1 dead TWIN LAKES,Iowa — Authorities on Thursday identified a 19-yearold from South Dakota as the sole fatality of a bus crash in rural Iowa that injured 32 other members of a community college’s baseball team.

Carter Johnson was an outfielder from Rapid City in his first year at Iowa Lakes Community College, according to the team roster Johnson died Wednesday after the bus overturned in a ditch alongside a highway about 85 miles northwest of Des Moines, authorities said Thursday The bus went off the road for “unknown reasons,” said Iowa State Patrol Lt. Aaron Smidt, and the crash is under investigation. All of the other occupants on the bus — 32 teammates — were injured in the crash but are stable and recovering, Smidt said

Homan hails ‘safer’ Minnesota

Trump administration says it’s ending massive immigration crackdown

MINNEAPOLIS The Trump admin-

istration is ending the immigration crackdown in Minnesota, border czar Tom Homan said Thursday of the two-month operation that led to thousands of arrests angry mass protests and the fatal shootings of two U.S. citizens.

The operation, which the Department of Homeland Security called its “largest immigration enforcement operation ever,” has been a flashpoint in the debate over President Donald Trump’s mass deportation efforts, flaring up after Renee Good and Alex Pretti were killed by federal officers in Minneapolis.

The U.S Immigration and Customs Enforcement operation focused on the Minneapolis-St. Paul area resulted in more than 4,000 arrests, Homan said, touting it as a success.

“The surge is leaving Minnesota

ing, loving neighbors and they’re also some of the toughest people you’ll find. And we’re in this as long as it takes.”

The governor called on Washington to help fund the recovery

The announcement marks a significant retreat from an operation that has become a major distraction for the Trump administration and more volatile than prior crackdowns in Chicago and Los Angeles. It comes as a new AP-NORC poll found that most U.S. adults say Trump’s immigration policies have gone too far Trump initially said the surge was an effort to root out fraud in publicly funded programs, for which he blamed the state’s large Somali community most of whom are U.S. citizens. But the drive soon shifted gears toward other ethnic groups such as Latinos. While the administration has portrayed those caught up in the Minnesota sweeps as “dangerous

Judge blocks Pentagon from punishing Kelly

Senator was in video that called on troops to resist unlawful orders

WASHINGTON A federal judge agreed Thursday to block the Pentagon from punishing Democratic Sen. Mark Kelly, a former Navy pilot, for participating in a video that called on troops to resist unlawful orders.

U.S. District Judge Richard Leon ruled that Pentagon officials not only violated Kelly’s First Amendment free speech rights, but they also “threatened the constitutional liberties of millions of military retirees.” The judge invoked an old-fashioned rebuke — “Horsefeathers!” — in response to the government’s claim that Kelly is trying to exempt himself from the rules of military justice.

“To say the least, our retired veterans deserve more respect from their Government, and our Constitution demands they receive it!” wrote Leon who was nominated to the bench by Republican President George W. Bush.

Kelly, who represents Arizona, sued in federal court to block his Jan. 5 censure from Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth. Leon’s order prohibits the Pentagon from implementing or enforcing Kelly’s punishment while his lawsuit is pending. The judge instructed the parties to provide him with an update in 30 days.

In November, Kelly and five other Democratic lawmakers appeared on a video in which they urged troops to uphold the Constitution and not to follow unlawful military directives from the Trump administration Republican President Donald Trump accused the lawmakers of sedition “punishable by DEATH” in a social media post days later.

Earlier this week, a Washington grand jury declined to indict the lawmakers over the video.

Michigan Sen. Elissa Slotkin has said she has been told the Justice Department could seek a new indictment as soon as Friday Kelly and Slotkin said at a news conference Wednesday that they are keeping all legal options on the table regarding potentially suing the administration.

Hegseth said the government will appeal Leon’s decision “Sedition is sedition, ‘Captain,’” he posted on his X account, referring to Kelly by his rank at retirement.

Leon said that Kelly “is likely to succeed on the merits” of his free speech claim. “He has also shown irreparable harm, and the balance of the equities fall decidedly in his favor.”

Hegseth said Kelly’s censure was “a necessary process step” to proceedings that could result in a demotion from the senator’s retired rank of captain and subsequent reduction in retirement pay

The judge concluded that Kelly’s speech is entitled to full First Amendment protection.

“Rather than trying to shrink the First Amendment liberties of retired service members, Secretary Hegseth and his fellow Defendants might reflect and be grateful for the wisdom and expertise that retired service members have brought to public discussions and debate on military matters in our Nation over the past 250 years,” Leon wrote Kelly said in a video statement posted after the ruling that the case was about more than just him and that the administration “was sending a message to millions of retired veterans that they too can be censured or demoted just for speaking out.”

He added that the ruling was unlikely the end: “This might not be over yet, because this president and this administration do not know how to admit when they’re wrong.”

The 90-second video was first posted on a social media account belonging to Slotkin. Reps. Jason Crow of Colorado, Chris Deluzio of Pennsylvania, Maggie Goodlander of New Hampshire and Chrissy Houlahan of Pennsylvania also appeared in the video. All of the participants are veterans of the armed services or intelligence agencies.

State and local officials, who have frequently clashed with federal authorities since Operation Metro Surge started in December, insist the swarm of immigration officials has inflicted long-term damage on the state’s economy and its immigrant community Democratic Gov Tim Walz urged residents Thursday to remain vigilant in the coming days as immigration officers prepare to leave, saying he’s not going to express gratitude for the Trump administration officials who caused “this unnecessary, unwarranted and in many cases unconstitutional assault on our state.”

“It’s going to be a long road,” Walz said at a news conference where he proposed a $10 million aid package for businesses that have lost revenue because of the immigration enforcement operation. “Minnesotans are decent, car-

“The federal government needs to pay for what they broke here. You don’t get to break things and then just leave without doing something about it,” he said.

Homan was vague about a timeline for the drawdown. But Walz said Homan had assured him that federal officers would start leaving immediately

Homan said immigration enforcement won’t end in the state when the Minnesota operation is over and that the local ICE office will stay in the fight. “President Trump made a promise of mass deportation and that’s what this country is going to get,” Homan said.

Todd Lyons, the acting director of ICE, said during a hearing in Washington on Thursday that ICE officers are still looking for about 16,840 people in Minnesota with final orders of removal.

Search for Nancy Guthrie seeks month of area videos

TUCSON,Ariz. — Investigators in Arizona want residents near Nancy Guthrie‘s home to share surveillance camera footage of suspicious cars or people they may have noticed in the month before she disappeared.

The alert went across a 2-mile radius in neighborhoods close to where the mother of “Today” show host Savannah Guthrie went missing 12 days ago, the Pima County Sheriff’s Department said Thursday It asked for video of “anything neighbors deem out of the ordinary or important to our investigation” since the beginning of January Federal and local officers have been going door-todoor in Tucson neighborhoods around 84-year-old Nancy Guthrie’s house while also looking for clues around her other daughter’s nearby home, which she had visited just hours before disappearing. Investigators have recovered and are analyzing several pieces of evidence, including a pair of gloves, the sheriff’s department said.

Authorities on Thursday briefly put up a tent in front of Nancy Guthrie’s entryway where her blood was discovered in the early days of the investigation and where a doorbell camera captured images of a masked person the night she went missing.

Authorities have said Guthrie was taken against her will She’s been missing since Feb. 1, and authorities say she takes several medications and there’s concern she could die without them.

Savannah Guthrie on Thursday shared on Instagram a vintage home video of her mom with two children sharing pink flowers, writing “we will never give up on her thank you for your prayers and hope.”

On Wednesday, FBI agents

fanned out across a nearby neighborhood, knocking on doors and searching through cactuses, brush and boulders.

“They were just asking some general questions wondering if there was anything, any information we

could shed on the Nancy Guthrie issue. Wanted to look around the property and after that, cameras and such,” Ann Adams, a neighbor of Nancy Guthrie’s oldest daughter, Annie Guthrie, told The Associated Press on Wednesday

Congress leaves D.C. without DHS funding deal

WASHINGTON Lawmakers left Washington on Thursday without a deal on an immigration enforcement overhaul, virtually guaranteeing a partial shutdown of the Homeland Security Department when current funding runs out this weekend. Unless progress is made, neither chamber is expected to return to the Capitol next week, when Congress is scheduled to be in recess.

Bipartisan negotiations on an immigration plan were expected to continue over the recess. Leaders of both chambers told members they would be given 48 hours notice to return to the Capitol if a deal is reached.

The decision to leave came after the Senate fell short of the 60 votes needed to move forward on a House-passed full-year Homeland Security appropriations bill. The vote was 52-47, with all Democrats except Sen John Fet-

terman of Pennsylvania in opposition. Majority Leader John Thune, R-S.D., flipped his vote to a “no” when it was clear the motion lacked enough support, in order to be able to reconsider the vote at a later time.

After the vote, Sen. Katie Britt, R-Ala., the chair of the Senate Homeland Security Appropriations Subcommittee, immediately brought up a motion for a two-week continuing resolution under

unanimous consent. “We are working in good faith to find a pathway forward,” she said. “What we’re asking is ‘let us continue to do that.’”

Sen. Chris Murphy DConn., objected, saying Democrats had not received text from the White House until Wednesday night — “far too late to be able to engage in any compromise before the deadline.”

Democrats have made

clear they will not vote for another stopgap extension of DHS funding without progress on an immigration enforcement deal. And that message did not waver on Thursday, even after White House border czar Tom Homan announced immigration agents would pull out of Minnesota, the site of two fatal shootings of U.S. citizens last month.

This “is not what law and order looks like,” Minority Leader Chuck Schumer, DN.Y., said Thursday after the vote “Republicans simply cannot pretend that this outrage does not exist. It’s their responsibility now to step forward, heed the calls of the American people and work with us to pass real reform.”

A senior White House official told reporters Thursday that the administration’s offer to Democrats addressed “at least a portion” of their demands. But the official said the administration could not accept the Democratic demand for requiring judicial warrants whenever

immigration agents want to search private property, saying such a constraint would hamstring immigration enforcement operations. Currently only an administrative warrant is typically required.

“There’s some obviously red lines that Democrats have and that the White House has,” Thune told reporters. “Every iteration of this gets a step closer, because I think the White House is giving more and more ground on some of these key issues.”

On Wednesday night, the White House had sent Senate Democrats legislative text similar to the counterproposal sent earlier this week, which many called a nonstarter

Sen. Sheldon Whitehouse, D-R.I., said it was “not serious (and) not being taken seriously.”

Sen. Richard Blumenthal, D-Conn., called the White House proposal “unresponsive and unserious,” adding, “It’s essentially more cosmetic and window dressing

than real reform.” Thune countered that the White House had made “a real offer” and Democrats should be blamed for a partial shutdown. “We don’t have a solution yet and the Democrats, at least at the moment, evidently, have no interest in funding the Department of Homeland Security,” he said. While the Senate focused on DHS funding, the House this week was embroiled in more than just shutdown politics.

Speaker Mike Johnson, R-Benton, saw an embarrassing defeat on the floor late Tuesday night when three Republicans joined Democrats in sinking a procedural vote that would have blocked the chamber from acting against President Donald Trump’s tariffs. Even more Republicans voted with Democrats on Wednesday to reverse Trump’s tariffs on Canada the first of many measures aimed at the tariffs expected to go to the floor in upcoming weeks.

Johnson says he disapproves of DOJ logging searches of Epstein files

WASHINGTON Republican House Speaker Mike Johnson, R-Benton, said Thursday that he did not think it was appropriate for the Justice Department to be tracking the search histories of lawmakers who are reviewing files from the Jeffrey Epstein investigation.

The rare rebuke to the Trump administration came as photographs emerged revealing an apparent index of records reviewed by a Democratic member of Congress who was among the lawmakers given an opportunity to read less-redacted versions of the Epstein files at a department annex and on department-owned computers.

Rep. Jamie Raskin, the top Democrat on the House Judiciary Committee, asked the Justice Department’s inspector general to investigate what he characterized as “spying,” and Johnson, a close ally of President Donald Trump, offered his own scolding when asked about the issue Thursday “I think members should

obviously have the right to peruse those at their own speed and with their own discretion I don’t think it’s appropriate for anybody to be tracking that,” Johnson told reporters. “I will echo that to anybody involved with the DOJ and I’m sure it was an oversight.”

The Justice Department said in a statement that, as part of the process of permitting lawmakers to review the Epstein files, it “logs all searches made on its systems to protect against the release of victim information.” Photographs taken during Attorney General Pam Bondi’s hearing before the House Judiciary Committee on Wednesday showed her with a printout that said “Jayapal Pramila Search History” and that listed a series of documents that were apparently reviewed Pramila Jayapal, a Democratic congresswoman, was among the Judiciary Committee members who pressed Bondi during the hearing about the department’s handling of the Epstein files.

Jayapal called it “totally

Hartford Courant (TNS)

A Yale University professor has been removed from teaching classes while university officials review a sixyear correspondence he had with Jeffrey Epstein, which included his description of a student to the accused sex trafficker as a “goodlooking blonde.” The back-and-forth dialogue was discovered within numerous emails released in recent weeks by the U.S. Department of Justice as part of the agency’s “Epstein Library,” which showed a number of communications between computer science professor David Gelernter, 70, and Epstein. Within their correspondences between 2009 and 2015, Gelernter in one email appears to be recommending a then-student as part of his software startup.

“I have a perfect editoress in mind,” Gelernter wrote in an email dated Oct. 11, 2011, according to the DOJ. “Yale sr worked at Vogue last summer, runs her own campus mag, art major, completely connected, v small goodlooking blonde.”

In an email sent last week to Jeffrey Brock, dean of the School of Engineering and Applied Science Gelernter defended what he wrote and said he was recommending the student for a job he “thought she’d like.”

“This one was obsessed with girls (like every other

unmarried billionaire in Manhattan; in fact, like every other heterosex male), and if I hadn’t said what I did in that letter 10-odd years ago, he would certainly have called me & asked for a lot more aesthetic detail. (This is how men behave.)” Gelernter wrote in the email, which was also sent to computer science professor Holly Rushmeier and shared to media outlets, the Daily Beast reported.

“So long as I said nothing that dishonored her in any conceivable way, I’d have told him more or less what he wanted,” Gelernter wrote. “She was smart, charming & gorgeous Ought I to have suppressed that info? Never! I’m very glad I wrote the note.”

According to a Yale spokesperson, Gelernter has been removed from teaching his computer science class until university officials can review his conduct. Gelernter is known for authoring the book “Mirror Worlds,” which was published in the early 1990s and is credited for predicting the rise of the modern Internet. In 1993, Gelernter was sent a bomb in the mail from Ted Kaczynski, known more commonly as the Unabomber Gelernter suffered permanent damage to his right hand and eye from the explosion. In a letter, Kaczynski criticized Gelernter’s work in “Mirror Worlds” for asserting that the advancement of computers was inevitable.

unacceptable” and said lawmakers will be “demanding a full accounting” of how the department is using the search history “Bondi has enough time to spy on Members of Congress, but can’t find it in herself to apologize to the survivors of Epstein’s horrific abuse,” Jayapal said in a post on X.

The Justice Department statement did not explain why Bondi came to the House hearing with information on lawmaker searches.

A bipartisan contingent of lawmakers has traveled in recent days to a Justice Department outpost to review less-redacted records from the files, but some who have seen the

documents have complained that too much information about Epstein associates remains withheld from view.

The Trump administration Justice Department said last month that it was releasing more than 3 million pages along with more than 2,000 videos and 180,000 images related to Epstein investigations. In a statement, Raskin said that not only had the Justice Department withheld records from lawmakers “but now Bondi and her

team are spying on members of Congress conducting oversight in yet another blatant attempt to intrude into Congress’s oversight processes.”

He added: “DOJ must immediately cease tracking any Members’ searches open up the Epstein review to senior congressional staff, and publicly release all files — with all the survivors’ information, and only the survivors’ information, properly redacted — as required by federal law.”

DavidDoniger,a climate expert at the Natural Resources Defense Council, said Trump andZeldin are trying to userepeal of the finding as a“kill shot” that would allow the administration to make nearly all climate regulations invalid. The repeal could erase current limits on greenhouse gaspollutionfrom cars, factories, powerplants and other sources and could hinderfuture administrations from imposing rules to address global warming.

The EPAaction followsan executive order fromTrump that directed the agency to submit areport on “the legality and continuing applicability” of the endangermentfinding. Conservatives andsome congressional Republicans have long sought to undo whatthey consider overly restrictive and economically damaging rules to limit greenhouse gases that

cause global warming. Withdrawing the endangerment finding “is the most important steptaken by the Trump administration so fartoreturn to energy and economic sanity,” said Myron Ebell, aconservative activist who has questioned the science behind climate change. Zeldin andTransportation Secretary Sean Duffy have movedtodrastically scale back limits on tailpipe emissions from cars and trucks. Rules imposed under Democratic President Joe Biden were intended to encourage U.S. automakers to build and sell more electric vehicles. The transportation sector is the largest source of greenhouse gas emissions in the U.S. The Trump administration announced aproposal in December to weaken vehicle mileage rules forthe auto industry,loosening regulatory pressure on automakers to control pollution from gasoline-poweredcarsand trucks.

“Education comes in different forms,” Mallett said in an interview Thursday. “Mine came from experience, responsibility and real consequences. Your résumé is your reputation.”

Past board members said previous boards blocked himfrom becoming chair.

AUDIT

Continued from page1A

Acriminal investigation by Louisiana Attorney General Liz Murrill’soffice has yielded indictments of public officials and people who had contracts with the cityparish.

The most prominent is Metro Council member Cleve Dunn Jr., who was charged on nine counts, including conspiracy,bribery theftand money laundering, for allegedly engaging ina scheme to get moneyfrom the Capital Area Transit System.

Officials in Murrill’s office have repeatedly said they expect more indictmentsto come.

‘Fullytransparent’

Edwards said he and Louisiana Legislative Auditor Mike Waguespack met Tuesday to discuss the review and expect it to be in full swing next month.

In an interview following themayor’s announcement, Waguespack said the audit is similar to what his office is doing in New Orleans right now “What we’re going to do in Baton Rouge is look at the spending and then just trytogivethemsome good advisory consulting workas well,” he said.

The auditor said he expects the work to take several months and will be ablend of financial auditing, performance auditing and seeing what internal controlsare in place and what might not be “If we run across some misspends or potential fraud

They added that Mallett was so angry at being passed over inJuly2023that he skipped the board’snext three meetings. Mallett said he was busy with other commitments In 2024, Mallett lobbied Landry and the Legislature to change state law to allow thegovernor to choose the chairof LSU’sboard. The bill passed by the Legislature was far more expansive. It lets thegovernor make that pick and choose the chairsofdozens of other boards. Until then, the board membersthemselves had chosen theirchairs, with the goal of ensuringgreater continuity in policy from governor to governor.

With that power,Landry selected Ballard as chair a year ago and nowMallett. In the past, LSU’sboard chairs served one year,but now the chair serves at the governor’spleasure.

“I look forward to working together to continue LSU’s strong momentum andbuild on the progress that has been made,” Landry said on Xinannouncing Mallett’s appointmentThursday

Jay Dardenne,aformer state senator,secretary of stateand lieutenantgovernor who has bothundergraduate andlaw degrees from LSU, figured that Mallett would become the chair following passage of the 2024 law

“I think Sid at this point, with allthe negativitysurrounding the recent indictments, just wants to be very proactive,”Waguespack said. “He wants to try to restore thetrust with thetaxpayers of BatonRouge and show that his office is doing theright thing.”

Once finished, the auditors will write adetailed report thatwill be apublic document ‘A more solidfooting’

Since taking office, Edwards has acknowledged that his team has worked with state and federal authorities requestingfinancial records fromprevious years. In astatementimmediately followingDunn’s indictment, Edwardscalled theallegations “disturbing” and saidanyone suspected of misusingtaxpayers’ dollars “shouldbeinvestigated andprosecuted to the fullest extentofthe law.”

“I want to be clearthat these matters relatetoactions thatoccurred prior to my taking office,” Edwards said.

While the indictments so far involve onlycontracts with CATS, sources with

“He has been very involved andinfluential in the governor’sactionstoward LSU,” Dardenne said.

James Carville, thefamed Democratic political consultantwho alsohas undergraduate and law degrees from LSU,has long hadnothing good to say about Mallett’s appointment.

“He’s not interested in having someonewho has a deep allegiance to LSUon the board,”saidCarville, who had sharply criticized Landry’smoves with the athletics departmentand the selection of Rousse, whohad been president of McNeese State. “It’sbeen adeeply held conviction of lots of LSUpeople.”

Landry graduated from theUniversity of Louisiana at Lafayette as an undergraduateand from Loyola Law School.

Landry did notmakehimself available for an interview Thursday.Instead, his presssecretary,KateKelly, texted:“Lee has been on the Boardlonger than it takes to get acollege degree.”

Mallettsaid he is well prepared to be chair because of his long servicetoLSU, particularly on theboard’s audit, finance andgovernmental affairscommittees.

“I maynot be acareer academic, but Irespect academia, Iunderstandthe issues,” Mallettsaid. “The economy of this state is

Edwards said he could not identify any specific contracts or agreements hisadministration severed after taking office. However,he said he slowed progress on several items duetoalack of documentation,though he did not witness anything he characterized as nefarious.

“I’mnot looking for criminal behavior.Oh, Ihope it’s clean as awhistle,”Edwards said.“We just want to protect ourselves.”

Mayor ProTempore Brandon Noel welcomed Edwards’ move.

“Itshouldgive the administration amore solid footingand baseline, andoffer best practices for certain operations throughout cityparish,” he said.

Council member Aaron Moak shared Noel’sview and said it makes fora more transparent office, adding,“In fact, for anew administration,I would just aboutthink we should require it.”

“Stops the open blame games and shows when and where problems started,” Moak said. “I would go so far as to have all elected officials have theiroffice audited upon entering office.”

predicated on thedirection of LSU. It came closetomy heart as Ibegan to serve there.”

Mallett was first appointed to the LSU board by thenGov.Bobby Jindal. He contributed at least$15,000 to Jindal’s2007 campaign.

WhenJindalwas termed outin2015,Mallettsupported then-U.S.Sen.David Vitter,the Republican favoritetobegovernor.But then-state Rep. John Bel Edwards, aDemocrat, unexpectedly won the race. Edwards vetoed abill that Mallett wanted, and the two met, said Mallett.

When Edwards sought reelection in 2019, campaign finance records show that Mallett, family members andhis companiesgave $45,000 to Edwards and $100,000 to Gumbo PAC, an outside group supporting him Edwards reappointed Mallett to serve on the LSU board.

In 2023, Mallett contributed at least $50,000 to Landry

and groups supporting his gubernatorial campaign.

That year,Mallett began hosting weekly dinners at the lieutenant governor’s apartment at the Pentagon Barracksacrossfromthe Capitol forLSU officials and legislators to ensure that both sideskneweach other better,hesaid. Mallett paid for the food and the staff to prepare it.

Ballard, while stepping downaschair of LSU’s board, on Wednesday became the board chair for the Louisiana Association of Business and Industry,the state’smost powerfulbusiness lobby

Asix-page memo provided by Ballard detailinghis achievements said “the LSU Systemachievedrecord enrollment and research growth, historic athletic success, and strengthened accountability,while advancing higher education, workforce development and statewide economic impact.”

Rousse and Daltonare continuing an effort by for-

mer President WilliamTate to elevate LSU into the coveted top50ranks of theNational Science Foundation HigherEducationResearch and Development, or HERD, Survey. The flagship campus in Baton Rouge ranks 83rd, withthe health sciences centers in NewOrleansand Shreveport at 195th and 269th. Roger Ogden, adeveloper andphilanthropist in New Orleans whospent15years on the LSUboard, said Mallett’slack of acollege degree “is irrelevant. There are extraordinarily successful multi-millionaires and billionaireswho did notcomplete their college degree. What is importantisthat ourboard leadership understand their role and back the agenda of Dr.Rousse and Dr Dalton in theaspirational goal to becominga top50 research institution. That will make adifference for Louisiana.”

National Guard touts impact of operation in N.O.

Officials say deployment has led to ‘positive trends’

Louisiana National Guard

officials on Thursday took credit for New Orleans’ low crime rate, saying that their deployment to the city on the federal government’s dime has led to “positive trends,” including 175 human trafficking arrests.

Under a collaborative operation that enables local police to fight crime, a spokesperson said, police were able to make the arrests, remove more than 100 firearms and seize 20 kilograms of cocaine.

The spokesperson also cited the police’s recent rescue of four victims of human trafficking, and the National Guard’s work to control crowds during Carnival, the Sugar Bowl and New Year’s Eve.

“The Guard’s impact on crime is primarily as a force multiplier, enabling law enforcement officers to make

arrests; furthermore, law enforcement officials are noting positive trends,” said Lt. Noel Collins, a spokesperson for the Louisiana National Guard.

The federal deployment of up to 350 Louisiana National Guard members, paid for by President Donald Trump’s administration at Gov Jeff Landry’s request, began ahead of New Year’s Eve festivities and will continue through the end of February For weeks, the Guard has been a consistent presence in the French Quarter and downtown, with groups of two or three officers patrolling streets and manning vehicle checkpoints.

In addition to their other work, Collins said the “soldiers’ presence is noted as deterring petty crime and scuffles.”

“Petty crimes and prevention of physical altercations may not be accounted for in quantifiable data,” Collins wrote.

While Landry cited crime in the city in his request for the deployment, the guard’s operation began as the city ended the year with a 50year low in homicides. Compared with 2022, when the city’s murder rate led the

nation, New Orleans’ homicide rate decreased by 55%, officials said in January Killings, shootings, and robberies that surged for three years beginning in early 2020 fell for a third straight year in 2025. Nonfatal shootings, armed robberies and carjackings also fell in 2025.

President Donald Trump in January pointed to the

deployment of the National Guard as one reason crime in New Orleans was “down to almost nothing.”

Similar deployments in Illinois and Oregon have been blocked by courts. In Louisiana, officials have largely welcomed the deployment and noted that the National Guard has a long history of assisting local law enforcement during major tourist events.

In the French Quarter, reviews of the National Guard presence have been mixed, with some neighborhood leaders and business owners raising concerns that the armed officers make the neighborhood appear less safe, and others saying that the heightened law enforcement presence contributes to security

On Wednesday Col. Stuart West, commander of the 61st Troop Command, said that “ever since we hit the ground, the community, the locals, everyone has been so welcoming and polite.” West said that local law enforcement have informed him of statistics showing a “noticeable decrease in violent crime, person-on-person crime, since the Guard has been in place. He did not share specific statistics.

Local officials have commended national and state law enforcement for their collaboration during Carnival.

At a news conference on Feb. 2, New Orleans Police Department Superintendent Anne Kirkpatrick said that residents and visitors could expect to see an increased presence of “our wonderful partners, our state patrol our National Guard” in leadup to Mardi Gras. “I just want to thank all the partners coming together, and we are just working better and better every single day,” said Mayor Helena Moreno at the same event.

Immigration officials shown video of Minnesota man’s death

WASHINGTON The men tasked with carrying out

President Donald Trump’s mass deportation agenda were made to watch a video of the shooting death of Alex Pretti in a slow, moment-bymoment analysis on Thursday by Sen. Rand Paul, who repeatedly cast doubt on the tactics used by federal officers and warned that the American public had lost trust in the country’s immigration agencies. It was a tense confrontation at a Senate hearing that was called to scrutinize the immigration chiefs as they carry out one of Trump’s signature policy and after the deaths of two protesters in Minneapolis over recent weeks at the hands of federal officers.

Paul, who paused the video every few seconds to explain his interpretation of the events, argued that Pretti posed no threat to the officers and questioned why the situation culminated in the ICU nurse’s death.

From left Joseph Edlow, director of U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services; Rodney Scott, commissioner of the U.S. Customs and Border Protection; and Todd Lyons, acting director of U.S Immigration and Customs Enforcement, listen during a Senate Homeland Security Committee hearing Thursday on Capitol Hill.

“He is retreating at every moment,” said Paul, speaking of Pretti’s behavior while officers pepper-sprayed him.

“He’s trying to get away and he’s being sprayed in the face.”

The hearing’s witnesses included Todd Lyons, the acting director of Immigration and Customs Enforcement;

Rodney Scott, who heads Customs and Border Protection, and Joseph Edlow, who runs U.S Citizenship and Immigration Services. The same officials appeared in front of a House committee earlier this week.

Paul’s comments were a strong rebuke of the conduct by CBP officers who ulti-

mately shot and killed Pretti on Jan. 24 in Minneapolis.

“It’s clearly evident that the public trust has been lost. To restore trust in ICE and Border Patrol they must admit their mistakes, be honest and forthright with their rules of engagement and pledge to reform,” Paul said in his opening statements.

But Paul, who’s often shown a willingness to buck party line, was the lone Republican voice questioning the immigration officers’ conduct with others steering clear of any criticism.

Democrats also weighed in with sharp condemnation of the shooting and, more broadly, on how officers from those agencies are using force when carrying out their responsibilities Scott disputed that Pretti wasn’t a threat.

“What I’m seeing is a subject that’s also not complying. He’s not following any guidance. He’s fighting back nonstop,” said Scott.

Lyons disputed claims that his officers are not held accountable. He said in the year since Trump took of-

fice, ICE has opened 37 investigations for excessive force; 18 were closed, 19 are still pending and one was been referred for “further action,” he said. The shooting death of Pretti, along with another American citizen, Renee Good, who were protesting immigration enforcement in Minnesota, sparked outrage and prompted changes to the Minnesota operation.

On Thursday, Trump’s border czar, Tom Homan, announced that he was winding down the operation, which at one point included 3,000 ICE and CBP officers.

Sen. Richard Blumenthal pushed Lyons to explain a memo he wrote justifying the use of administration warrants documents signed by an ICE officer and not an independent judge to forcibly enter a home to make an arrest. The Associated Press reported last month that ICE was asserting sweeping power through the use of administrative warrants in its enforcement operations. Administrative warrants

historically have not been sufficient to overcome Fourth Amendment protections that guard against illegal searches.

Lyons defended the practice, arguing that there is case law in Minnesota that allows officers to enter a home to catch a fugitive using only an administrative warrant.

Blumenthal, who compared the ICE’s administrative warrants to a permission slip, said they aren’t enough to overcome constitutional protections. Other Republicans directed their toughest questioning toward an earlier panel of Minnesota officials. When questioning Lyons and Scott, they focused not on the officers’ tactics but on the threats they said ICE and CBP officers faced in carrying out their jobs.

Sen. Ron Johnson, R-Wis., asked Lyons to talk about the “violence, the threats, the doxing against ICE officers.”

“That’s where I’ve got a great deal of sympathy for people trying to enforce law,” he said.

WASHINGTON The U.S military on Thursday reported two major incidents that occurred in recent days tied to the massive buildup of forces in the Caribbean Sea — a Marine who died after falling overboard and a collision between two Navy ships that left two sailors with minor injuries. A report was made Saturday that Lance Cpl. Chukwuemeka E Ofo-

rah, 21, of Florida, had fallen from the USS Iwo Jima amphibious assault ship, the Marine Corps said in a press release. The military used five Navy ships, 10 aircraft and an Air Force Reaper drone in “an extensive, around-the-clock 72-hour search and rescue operation,” the release said, but he was declared dead Tuesday It appears to be the first publicly announced death of a service member during the U.S. military operation in the region. The Trump

administration built up the largest military presence in the region in generations before carrying out a series of deadly strikes on alleged drug boats since September, seizing sanctioned oil tankers and conducting a surprise raid last month that captured Venezuela’s thenpresident, Nicolás Maduro.

Also Thursday, U.S. Southern Command announced that the destroyer USS Truxtun and the supply ship USNS Supply collided as the warship was getting a new load of

supplies. The maneuver typically has the vessels sailing parallel, usually within hundreds of feet, while fuel and supplies are transferred across the gap via hoses and cables.

The collision occurred when the supply ship was refueling the cruiser USS Gettysburg on one side and the Truxtun approached from the other side, according to a U.S. official who spoke on condition of anonymity to discuss a mishap that is under investigation. Southern Command said two

personnel reported minor injuries and that both were in stable condition. The two ships now are sailing safely, the military statement said. The USS Truxtun left its home port in Norfolk, Virginia, on Feb. 3

The destroyer had to return to port for several days to conduct “an emergent equipment repair” and it ultimately set sail for the Caribbean on Feb. 6, according to a Navy official, who spoke on condition of anonymity to discuss sensitive operational details.

Get more electricity from coal, Trump tells Pentagon

President Donald Trump

on Wednesday issued an executive order directing the Department of Defense to buy electricity from coalfired power plants. He also announced new funding to restart and upgrade coal plants in several states.

The executive order directs Secretary of Defense

Pete Hegseth and Secretary of Energy Chris Wright to enter into long-term contracts with coal-fired plants to serve military installations and facilities. The order will “ensure military installations and critical defense facilities have uninterrupted, on-demand baseload power,” the White House said.

The Department of Energy will also award $175 million for six projects to “extend the useful life of coalfired power plants” in rural and remote communities, including West Virginia, Ohio, North Carolina, Kentucky, and Ohio, the agency said

Hundreds of coal plants have closed in the United States in recent years as inexpensive and cleaner natural gas and renewables became super-abundant.

Coal is relatively inexpensive to produce but is the dirtiest fossil fuel, releasing considerable particulate air pollution, sulfur dioxide and

mercury and nearly twice the planet-warming carbon dioxide as natural gas.

Trump announced the initiatives at a White House event where he also received an “Undisputed Champion of Coal” award from the Washington Coal Club, a pro-coal group The actions continue the administration’s efforts to turn back the clock on the transition to cleaner energy and reverse efforts

to address climate change.

In 2025, coal was down to roughly 17% of the country’s electricity generation, from about 50% in 2000, according to the U.S. Energy Information Administration.

The announcement comes as Trump takes steps to block electric vehicle initiatives and the development of renewable energy sources such as wind and solar — including ongoing legal battles over offshore wind projects

on the East Coast and challenges to California’s authority to set strict tailpipe emission standards.

During Wednesday’s event, Trump credited coal with keeping the power on during recent winter storms while “solar and wind totally collapsed.”

“I’m not a fan of those crazy windmills that are all made in China,” Trump said. But energy costs are rising across the U.S., and

Puerto Rico governor signs law to recognize fetus as human being

SAN JUAN, Puerto Rico Puerto Rico’s governor on Thursday signed a bill that amends a law to recognize a fetus as a human being, a move doctors and legal experts warn will have deep ramifications for the U.S. Caribbean territory

The amendment was approved without public hearings and amid concerns from opponents who warned it would unleash confusion and affect how doctors and pregnant or potentially pregnant women are treated. The new law will lead to “defensive health care,” warned Dr Carlos Díaz Vélez, president of Puerto Rico’s College of Medical Surgeons “This will bring complex clinical decisions into the realm of criminal law,” he said in a phone interview

SHELBYVILLE, Ind. — Authorities have charged two teenagers with attempted murder and conspiracy for allegedly plotting to stage a shooting at a central Indiana school that one of the teens attended.

Alexis Pickett, a student Morristown High School in Shelbyville, Indiana, and Melanie Little of Corinth, Mississippi, both 17, are charged as adults in an alleged crime planned over social media and involving Pickett sending vid-

He said that women with complicated pregnancies will likely be turned away by private doctors and will end up giving birth in the U.S mainland or at Puerto Rico’s largest public hospital, noting that the island’s health system isn’t prepared.

Díaz noted that the amended law also allows a third person to intervene between a doctor and a pregnant woman, so privacy laws will be violated, adding that new protocols and regulations will have to be implemented.

Gov Jenniffer González, a Republican and supporter of President Donald Trump, said in a brief statement that “the legislation aims to maintain consistency between civil and criminal provisions by recognizing the unborn child as a human being.”

The amendment, in Senate Bill 923, was made to an article

within Puerto Rico’s Penal Code that defines murder

The government noted that the amendment complements a law that among other things, classifies as first-degree murder when a pregnant woman is killed intentionally and knowingly, resulting in the death of the conceived child at any stage of gestation. The law was named after Keishla Rodríguez, who was pregnant when she was killed in April 2021 Her lover, former Puerto Rican boxer Félix Verdejo, received two life sentences after he was found guilty in the killing.

“A zygote was given legal personality,” said Rosa Seguí Cordero, an attorney and spokesperson for the National Campaign for Free, Safe and Accessible Abortion in Puerto Rico. “We women were stripped of our rights.”

eo of the school’s layout, according to law enforcement documents.

The investigation began in December when Pickett’s mother, Rhonda Nicholson, approached sheriff’s police with concerns that Pickett showed behaviors indicating she intended to harm others or herself, including online conversations obsessing over past school shooters.

Pickett, who lives in Arlington, was charged in January Little was charged this week

A probable cause affidavit lays out detailed conversations Pickett

renewables represent the fastest, cheapest and cleanest resources available, said Julie McNamara, associate policy director of the climate and energy program at the nonprofit Union of Concerned Scientists. She described the president’s order as a “staggering, staggering waste of money, time and opportunity.”

“Forcing the use of increasingly unreliable and relentlessly uneconomic coal plants will risk outages and send high electricity costs higher,” McNamara said “Recklessly slashing health, safety and environmental standards will harm people’s health and the environment Communities that produce coal she said, need “actual, durable transition solutions.”

Ted Kelly director and lead counsel for U.S. Clean Energy at the nonprofit Environmental Defense Fund, said the administration’s efforts are “focused on the coal industry’s profits, not the costs to American families and businesses.”

Some representatives from the coal industry were appreciative of the new order

“As demand increases and our lives become increasingly electrified, America needs to generate more electricity, not less,” said Kayla Blackford, a worker at Bear Run Mine in Cougar, Indiana during Wednesday’s event. “For years, coal miners have felt the weight of policies that made our future uncertain. Over the past year that weight has begun to lift.” But even some within the industry have questioned the administration’s efforts. Last month, the owners of the Craig Generating Station in Colorado said the Department of Energy violated their constitutional rights when it ordered them to continue running a coalfired generator that they had been planning for more than a decade to retire.

“This absurd misuse of public funds will lead to more air pollution, more asthma and higher electricity bills all for ancient coal plants that barely work,” Kelly said. “At the same time, the Trump administration is blocking and canceling the cleanest, most affordable energy options from the grid, driving up costs even higher.” Kelly noted the costs of coal are increasing: 99% of coal plants cost more to run than would it cost to replace them with renewable energy, according to an analysis from the nonpartisan think tank Energy Innovation. A separate analysis from the consulting firm Grid Strategies found that forcing the continued operation of coal plants slated to retire could cost ratepayers more than $3 billion per year

Trump’s lawsuit against the BBC set to go to trial

in 2027, judge says

from him.

LONDON President Donald Trump’s $10 billion lawsuit against the BBC can go to trial in 2027, a U.S. judge has said.

Judge Roy K. Altman of the federal court for the Southern District of Florida rejected an attempt by Britain’s national broadcaster to delay proceedings. He set a provisional start date of Feb 15, 2027, for a twoweek trial. Altman’s court order was issued Wednesday Trump filed a lawsuit in December over the way the BBC edited a speech he gave on Jan. 6, 2021. The claim seeks $5 billion in damages for defamation and $5 billion for unfair trade practices.

The speech took place before some of Trump’s supporters stormed the U.S. Capitol as Congress was poised to certify President-elect Joe Biden’s victory in the 2020 election that Trump falsely alleged was stolen

and Little had, mostly on the communication app Discord. Pickett acknowledged to investigators that she had considered suicide for a long time and has a desire to hurt others. Her devices had photos of the gunmen in the 1999 Columbine High School shooting in Colorado. For Halloween, she dressed as a school shooter from a movie.

A senior, Pickett suggested a mass shooting around graduation and planned on May 25, even though graduation is two days earlier Little intended to tell her parents that Pickett was a friend

from grade school who had moved away and she wanted to attend her friend’s Indiana commencement. She sent Little a video of the school’s layout, its hallways and dead ends. Pickett owns a muzzleloader firearm, according to the affidavit, and showed Little photos of targets she said she had hit using a shotgun and a .357 revolver The two discussed without resolution how to obtain other guns.

Both women face a single count of attempted murder and conspiracy to commit murder, each of which carries a sentence of 20

The BBC had broadcast the documentary — titled “Trump: A Second Chance?” days before the 2024 U.S. presidential election. It spliced together three quotes from two sections of the 2021 speech, delivered almost an hour apart, into what appeared to be one quote in which Trump urged supporters to march with him and “fight like hell.” Among the parts cut out was a section where Trump said he wanted supporters to demonstrate peacefully

The broadcaster has apologized to Trump over the edit of the Jan. 6 speech. But the publicly funded BBC rejects claims it defamed him. The furor triggered the resignations of the BBC’s top executive and its head of news. Papers filed last month said the BBC plans to file a motion to dismiss the case on the basis that the court lacks jurisdiction, because the program was not broadcast in Florida, and that Trump failed to state a claim.

Town grieves8killedinshootinginCanada

VANCOUVER, British Columbia The families of victims of ashooting in aremote Canadian Rockies town grappled with unrelenting grief Thursday as details emerged about those killed in the country’s deadliest mass shooting inyears.

Authorities said the 18-year-old alleged shooter, identified as Jesse VanRootselaar,killed her 39-yearold mother,Jennifer Jacobs, and 11-year-old stepbrother,Emmett Jacobs, in their northern British Columbia home on Tuesday before headingtothe nearby Tumbler Ridge Secondary School andopening fire, killing five children and an educator before killing herself.

Twenty-five people were also injured in the attack. The motive remains unclear.

Among the dead was 12-year-old KylieSmith, whose family rememberedher as “the light in ourfamily.”

“She loved her family,friends, andgoingtoschool,”Kylie’sfamily said in astatement. “Shewas a talented artistand had dreams of going to art school in the big city of Toronto. Rest in paradise, sweet girl, ourfamily will never be the same without you.”

Kylie’sfather tearfullyrecounted the desperate hours spent tryingtolearn what happened to his daughter,only to find out from an older girl, not the authorities.

Lance Younge told CTV News that his son, Ethan, texted“I love you” shortly after 3p.m. Tuesday

and then called ashort time later to sayhewas hidinginautility room at his school in thesmall mountain community of Tumbler Ridge, but that he didn’t knowwherehis sister Kylie was. The family would find out hourslater that Kylie was amongthe dead.

While looking forKylie, Younge saidhewalked around the local recreation center where students were reuniting withtheir families for aboutsix hours, but that police wouldn’t tell him anything.

“I went home notknowing where my daughter was until ahigh school kid…came here and told us herstory about trying to save my daughter’slife,” he said.

“The police didn’t tellusanything. We hadtofind outthrough the community and through kids and rumors.”

Authorities on Thursday identified theother victims as Abel Mwansa, Zoey Benoit and Ticaria Lampert, all age 12, as well as 13-year-old EzekielSchofieldand assistant teacher Shannda Aviugana-Durand, 39.

In astatement, Zoey’s family described her as “resilient,vibrant, smart,caring and the strongest little girl you could meet.”

PeterSchofield,whose grandson, Ezekiel, was killed, shared his grief in aFacebook post, saying: “Everything feels so surreal. The

tearsjust keep flowing.”

Need formentalhealthservices

TrentErnst, publisherofTumbler RidgeLines, the town’sbiweekly newspaper, said he has been “randomly breaking down and weeping at inopportune times, usually when talkingtopeople about what is happening.”

He said he knows MayaGebala, 12, who was wounded in the head andneck,and Paige Hoekstra,19, whoalso sufferedbulletwounds. Both were hospitalized in Vancouver. He said he spoke withMaya at arecent town wintercarnival, describing her as “funky and vivacious” and “full of life.”

Ernstsaidone of the biggest frustrationsinthe community is thelack of medical support and in particular mental health services.

Rootselaarhad ahistoryofpolice visitstoher home to check on her mental health, authorities said.

“The majority of people that I’ve talkedtoare sad more at the fact thatTumbler Ridge doesn’thave the levelofsupport for mental health and health services in general,” he said.

In particular,Ernst said there’s asevere lack of mental health services in the Canadian Rockies town,which has roughly 2,700 residents andismorethan600 miles northeast of Vancouver, near the provincial border with Alberta.

Shooterled anomadic life

Rootselaar and herfamily led a“nomadiclifestyle” marked by multiple moves between at least

three Canadian provinces, according to a2015 British Columbia court ruling. The court’sdecision in adispute between the alleged shooter’sparents described her mother,JenniferJacobs, moving withher children between Newfoundland, Grand Cache in Alberta andPowellRiver,British Columbia,inthe previous five years.

Acommunity grieves

Mourners braved frigid cold Wednesday night to honor the victims, with MayorDarryl Krakowka telling them,“It’s OK to cry.” Krakowka described the townas “one big family,” and encouraged people to reach out and support each other,especially the families of those whodiedinthe attack. The community must support victims’ families“forever,” notonly in the days and weeks to come, he said. Police recovered along gun and amodified handgun at the school that they said Rootselaar used in the attack.

Dwayne McDonald, deputy commissioner of the Royal Canadian MountedPolice in BritishColumbia, said Wednesdaythere was no information that anyone at the school wastargeted. He said officers arrived at the school twominutes after the initial call and that shots were fired in their direction when they showed up.

Prime Minister Mark Carney, who said flags at government buildingswillbeflownathalf-staff for seven days, plannedtovisit Tumbler Ridge on Friday

DUBAI, United Arab Emirates The death toll from acrackdown over Iran’snationwide protests last month has reachedatleast 7,002 people killed with many more still feared dead, activists said Thursday

The continued rise in thetally of the dead from the demonstrations adds to the overall tensionsfacing Iran both inside the country and abroad as it tries to negotiatewith the UnitedStatesoverits nuclear program. Asecond round of talks

remains up in the air as Israeli PrimeMinisterBenjaminNetanyahu pressed hiscasedirectly with U.S. PresidentDonald Trump to intensify his demands on Tehran in the negotiations.

“There wasnothing definitive reached other thanI insistedthat negotiations with Iran continue to see whether or not aDeal can be consummated. If it can, Ilet the Prime Minister know that will be apreference,”Trumpwrote afterward on his TruthSocial website.

Trump told reporters at theWhite HouseThursday that Iranshould come to an agreement with the U.S. “very quickly.” Asked about his timeline for striking adeal with Iranoverits nuclear program, Trumpsaid, “I guess over the next month, something like that.”

Trump, who also has suggested theU.S. might take militaryaction in response to Iran’scrackdown on protesters, warned Iran that failure to reach adeal with his administrationwould be “verytraumatic.”

TheU.S basedHuman Rights Activists News Agency,which offered thelatest figure of 7,002 people killed, has been accurate in counting deaths during previous rounds of unrest in Iran and relies on anetwork of activists in Iran to verify deaths.

BRIEFS FROM WIRE REPORTS

Stocks drop sharply as investors hunt for losers

NEW YORK U.S. stocks fell sharply Thursday as the market punished companies seen as potential losers from artificialintelligence technology

AppLovin lost nearly a fifth of its value and tumbled 19.7%, even though it reported a stronger profit for the latest quarter than analysts expected. Like other software companies, it’s come under pressure from worries that AI may undercut its business while fundamentally changing how people use the internet.

AppLovin CEO Adam Foroughi pushed back on the concerns, saying in a conference call with analysts that indicators show his company is doing well “There’s a real disconnect between market sentiment and the reality of our business,” he said.

The AI worries have hit software stocks particularly hard, but they’re spreading to other industries and other markets. For bonds, for example, “AI disruption risk” looks set to knock down prices, even if the threat still looks hazy, according to strategists at UBS.

Outside of tech, McDonald’s rose 2.7% after reporting a stronger profit for the latest quarter than analysts expected

The chain credited moves to improve its value and affordability, including cutting prices on some U.S. combo meals in September.

Walmart’s rally of 3.8%, meanwhile, was the strongest single force pushing upward on the S&P 500.

Top Trump antitrust official leaves post NEW YORK — The top antitrust official in the Trump administration is leaving her post amid tension about greenlighting big mergers in recent months.

Gail Slater, the Justice Department’s assistant attorney general for antitrust, posted on X Thursday that it was with “great sadness” that she was leaving after just a year in the role. The move comes after a back-and-forth decision about whether to allow Hewlett Packard Enterprises to buy a rival business last year

The Justice Department initially tried to block the $14 billion deal with Juniper Networks, arguing in a lawsuit the two would control 70% of the market in the industry, a dominance that “threatens higher prices and less innovation.” But the suit was soon settled, and the merger allowed to go through.

Slater’s role reviewing deals was thrown into the spotlight again recently when President Donald Trump announced he would personally examine Netflix’s proposed purchase of Warner Bros. Discovery Trump later backed away from inserting himself into a process normally handled by Justice, promising not to get involved.

Conagra ordered to pay $25M in Pam lawsuit

A jury awarded a Los Angeles man $25 million in a lawsuit against Chicago-based Conagra alleging its butter-flavored Pam cooking spray caused a rare chronic lung disease that will require a double lung transplant.

The verdict last week in the Superior Court of Los Angeles found that Conagra did not adequately warn consumers about the potential dangers of inhaling fumes from Pam cooking spray containing diacetyl, a butter-flavored chemical linked to respiratory illness. During the trial, Conagra said it removed the ingredient from its Pam formulation in 2009.

Roland Esparza, 58, who had used butter-flavored Pam regularly since the 1990s, filed the lawsuit in 2022, alleging the since-discontinued ingredient is responsible for his condition, according to his attorney Esparza was diagnosed with bronchiolitis obliterans, a severe and progressive respiratory disease better known as “popcorn lung.” The disease was first identified in workers at a microwave popcorn plant who inhaled the butter-flavored chemical diacetyl during the manufacturing process

Homes sales fell sharply in January

Drop comes even as mortgage rates continue to ease

Sales of previously occupied U.S. homes fell sharply in January as higher home prices and possibly harsh winter weather kept many prospective homebuyers on the sidelines despite easing mortgage rates.

Existing home sales sank 8.4% last month from December to a seasonally adjusted annual rate of 3.91 million units, the National Association of Realtors said Thursday That’s the biggest monthly decline in nearly four years and the slowest annualized sales pace in more than two years. Sales fell 4.4% compared with

January last year The latest sales figure fell short of the 4.105 million pace economists were expecting, according to FactSet

“The decrease in sales is disappointing,” said Lawrence Yun, NAR’s chief economist. “The below-normal temperatures and above-normal precipitation this January make it harder than usual to assess the underlying driver of the decrease and determine if this month’s numbers are an aberration.”

Home sales slowed sharply across the Northeast, Midwest, South and West But sales had their biggest annual and monthly drop in the West, which wasn’t as affected by last month’s winter storm as the other regions of the country Plus, there’s usually a month or two lag between a contract signing and when the sale is finalized, so many of January’s sales reflect contracts signed late last year

Despite the sharp drop in sales, home prices continued to climb last month The national median sales price increased 0.9% in January from a year earlier to $396,800.

Home prices have risen on an annual basis for 31 months in a row

The U.S. housing market has been in a sales slump dating back to 2022, when mortgage rates began to climb from pandemic-era lows.

The combination of higher mortgage rates, years of skyrocketing home prices and a chronic shortage of homes nationally following more than a decade of below-average home construction have left many aspiring homeowners priced out of the market. Sales of previously occupied U.S. homes remained stuck last year at 30-year lows.

Many of the homes purchased last month likely went under contract in November and December when mortgage rates eased to their lowest levels of the year

The average rate on a 30-year mortgage briefly dropped last month to 6.06%, the lowest level since September 2022, according to mortgage buyer Freddie Mac. It has since inched higher remaining this week at just above 6%, but close to a percentage point lower than a year ago. Even so, affordability remains a challenge for many aspiring homeowners, especially first-time buyers who don’t have equity from an existing home to put toward a new home purchase. They accounted for 31% of homes sales last month. Historically, they made up 40% of home sales.

There were 1.22 million unsold homes at the end of January, down 0.8% from December and up 3.4% from January last year, NAR said. That’s still well short of the roughly 2 million homes for sale that was typical before the COVID-19 pandemic.

Damage to Fla. crops could top $1B

Below-freezing temperatures caused major harm

ORLANDO, Fla. — As forecasts called for freezing weather, David Hill planned to run sprinklers overnight, hoping a coating of ice would protect the crops at his Clermont farm.

But Hill, who owns Southern Hill Farms, had never tried freeze protection in temperatures as low as were predicted for the early hours of Feb. 1. So he decided to spray water on only half his fields.

The sprinkler plan didn’t work, as a heavy, milky ice formed, which broke branches and ruined crops. But the other fields suffered damage too as the temperatures plummeted into the low 20s on the first days of February

The freezing weather wiped out all the farm’s sunflowers, half its blueberries and a third of its strawberries, taking a good chunk of revenue with it.

“There will be no normal about this season That’s for sure,” Hill said.

That is true across the state.

The cost of freeze damage to Florida’s farmers might top $1 billion, the Florida Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services said in a statement this week

Every farmer as far south as Lake Okeechobee who was actively growing crops was hurt by the record-setting cold snap, said Matt Smith, a commercial crop agent for Lake and Orange counties with the University of Florida’s Institute of Food and Agricultural Sciences.

Smith said it may take months to understand the severity of the freeze. Farmers may see signs of fruit damage within two to four weeks but wood damage may not be evident until April.

And many farmers will be facing tough decisions soon. If the

damage in a crop hits a certain level, it’ll be unsustainable to bring the rest of the crop to the market.

The agriculture sector in Florida “is definitely hurting right now, and it’s going to take a little time to see to what extent,” he added.

Hank Scott, the general manager at Long & Scott Farms near Lake Apopka, said his cabbage suffered minimal damage But cabbage is a leafy winter vegetable better able to survive during the cold.

His farm lost some strawberries but still planned to open for “u-pick” customers this month.

Blueberry crops, however, were hit hard. Blueberry bushes are particularly susceptible to the cold, and when sprayed, their bushes couldn’t handle the weight of the ice that formed.

Scott West, the owner of Tom West Blueberries in Ocoee, said the ice likely reached 100 pounds per plant

“This amount of ice just

breaks the plant to pieces,” he said.

West said his farm lost from 70% to 80% of its blueberries, which covered 20 acres. It will be a while before the plants bounce back, if they are healthy enough to survive. In the meantime, he’ll need plenty of workers to help remove broken branches, start a fungicide program, and stake the plants, West said.

“I don’t think we have a choice but try to keep the workers on because you can’t spring back without the best farming practices,” he said.

It’s too soon to tally his financial losses, West said, but he expects some farms might go out of business.

On Tuesday, Gov Ron DeSantis issued an executive order in response to “last week’s winter weather event.” Without providing specifics, the message posted on X said the state was working to help “facilitate emergency

harvesting,” protect “Florida agriculture from further losses” and provide “prompt assistance” to farmers.

Though the state still has staff assessing damage from the freeze, “we do know that the damage to Florida crops will be significant, possibly over $1 billion,” said Agriculture Commissioner Wilton Simpson in his department’s statement.

He added, “Our farmers are resilient and we believe they will continue to weather the storm.” Hill said farmers have no choice but to keep working. Southern Hill, which is a family-run farm, opened its land to the public last weekend but had no produce to sell. Visitors were invited for food trucks and amusement park rides.

“You feel like somebody suckerpunched you to the stomach. You feel like you’re dreaming and you’re going to wake up but you never do. But you learn to cope,” Hill said.

EPA ends credits for automatic start-stop vehicle ignition

DETROIT The Environmental Protection Agency announced an end Thursday to credits to automakers who install automatic start-stop ignition systems in their vehicles, a device intended to reduce emissions that EPA Administrator Lee Zeldin said “everyone hates.” In remarks with President Donald Trump on Thursday at the White House, Zeldin called start-stop technology the “Obama switch” and said it makes vehicles “die” at every red light and stop sign He said the credits, which also applied to options like improved air conditioning systems are now “over done, finished.”

Zeldin repeated the generallydebunked claims that start-stop systems — which are mostly useful for city driving — are harmful to vehicles, asserting Thursday that “it kills the battery of your car without any significant benefit to the environment.”

This latest Trump administration move to cut automotive industry efforts to clean up their cars and reduce transportation-driven emissions came as Zeldin and Trump also announced a broader repeal of the scientific finding known as endangerment that has been the central basis for regulating U.S. greenhouse gas emissions.

Start-stop is a technology that automatically shuts down a vehicle’s engine when a driver comes

to a complete stop, and then automatically restarts the engine when the driver takes their foot off the brake pedal. Developed in response to the 1970s oil crisis, the feature was intended to cut vehicle idling, fuel consumption and emissions. About two-thirds of vehicles now have it, providing drivers with anywhere from 7% to 26% in fuel economy savings, according to the Society of Automotive Engineers.

Start-stop also causes a split-second lag in acceleration, a point of irritation for some consumers and automotive enthusiasts.

Burning gasoline and diesel fuel for transportation is a major contributor to planet-warming gases such as carbon dioxide, methane

and more, according to the EPA.

By implementing the systems, automakers could earn credits toward meeting federal emissions reduction rules.

“Countless Americans passionately despise the start/stop feature in cars,” Zeldin wrote in a post on X on Tuesday teasing the announcement. “So many have spoken out against this absurd start-stop-startstop-start-stop concept.”

The announcement made good on Zeldin’s promises last year to “fix” the feature. Start-stop is “where your car dies at every red light so companies get a climate participation trophy,” Zeldin said in a post on X last May “EPA approved it, and everyone hates it, so we’re fixing it,” he wrote at the time.

Roseland residentsstill waitingfor Smitty’s answers

Six months after an industrial explosion and fire disrupted their lives,residents of Roselandare still seeking answers. They gathered not for politics, but because they still do not know what they were exposed to, or why so many answers arrived filtered through technical language and repeated assurancesof“no imminent threat.”

The Smitty’sSupply explosion in Roseland fits this pattern. In August, the facility burned for days. Smoke and soot settled across neighborhoods. Residentswere evacuated, then allowed to return while cleanup continued As debris accumulated, official messaging shifted to reassurance, while fundamental questionssuch as what was released, where it traveled and the potential effects of long-term exposure wentunanswered. Air monitoring detected extremely elevated levels of fine particulate matter,specifically a microscopicsoot produced when oil and industrial materials burn This soot is not asinglechemical, but cumulative combustion pollutionthat penetrates the lungsand bloodstream.

Under the EPA’sAir Quality Index, levels of this material at or above250 micrograms per cubic meter are hazardous. In Roseland,regulators used an incident-specific threshold of 300 micrograms per cubicmeter,which is higher than theEPA’s benchmark. Neither theair nor the instruments changed, only the standard for action As aresult, air that metthe hazardous definition was described as “below action level.” Official statements assured residents there was “no imminent threat,” withoutexplaining that this relied on araised, incidentspecific threshold. Meanwhile, chemical-specific monitoringwas reported as “below detection limit,” but detection limits were not disclosed. “Below detection limit” does not mean absent; it means below areporting threshold that was not disclosed. Without that context, residents could not assess what might have been present at lower levels. This distinction is critical because this particulate matter carries toxic compounds, whether or not each chemical is individually identified.

No data needed to be falsified or numbers hidden —accountability was reduced by redefining what constituted concern. The timelineofevents is important.The fire began on Aug. 22. Smoke and other materials spread across thearea, causing evacuations. Over the ensuing month,air monitoring detected elevated particulate matter,but because of the 300 micrograms per cubit media standard, regulatorssaid it was “below action levels” and “below detection limit,” without ever disclosing what those thresholds were.

In early October,federal and stateinspectors documented hundreds of hazardous wastefailures resulting from theSmitty’s fire.

On Oct. 15, cleanup responsibility shifted toSmitty’s and the state under EPAoversight

AndinJanuary,the EPAissued an order,based on the earlier inspections, citing hazardouswaste violations including failure to identify,contain and manage waste. This sequence matters because reassurances about air safety were issued before regulators documented hazardous-waste mismanagement. The enforcementaction cited failures in spill

Fear is keepingNICUparents away;babiespayingthe price

Isat in the armchair close to theincubator.It’simpossibletoforget thesoundsofa neonatal intensive care unit,or NICU: The endless hums and beeps of monitors echo through the otherwise quiet unit.

Ababy girl —perfect, small, precious —was fast asleep in her bed. Tubes went through each nostril, and another was attached to her mouth. Iwas Facetiming thegirl’s mom, angling the camera so she could see her baby as clearly as possible. Her mom saidlittle, just repeated her daughter’s name over and over as she looked at her for thefirst time in weeks.

The sweep has forced parentstostay home,trusting doctors and nurses to care for their babies while they have been unable to be there. Strong NICU medicalteams are critical for premature babies’survival, butsoare parents

control, container integrity and planning. This was not hindsight, but thewithholding of context.

Gov.Jeff Landry promised to restore the site. Yetthroughout theresponse, residents were told there was “no imminent threat,” even as regulators had air-monitoring data and chemical inventories that were never fully explained.

EPAand state leaders had access to all monitoring data. The issue is not compliance, but whether they chose transparency over reassurance.

Other disasters show that adifferent approach is possible. After thechemical plant explosion in PortNeches, Texas, regulators reported air-monitoring results, disclosed detection limits, issued broad evacuation orders and then reassured thepublic.

In Roseland, monitoring served moreasaclearance mechanism than awarning system

Public-health language gave way to liability language, and uncertainty wasframed as reassurance. Residents returned to homes coated in soot, cleaning up without knowing what they were removing. Questions about soil, water and long-term health ef-

fects met conclusions but no explanations.

Louisiana is not without influence: aLouisianan is speaker of the house, another is majority leader and the governor represents U.S. interests abroad. Yetwhen aLouisiana community faced disaster,this was the response —afailure of priorities. When standards are adjusted to manage outcomes rather than clarify risk, trust erodes. When reassurance replaces transparency,accountability is conditional.

The central question in Roseland remains:

“Why wasair that met the definition of hazardous treated as if it did not warrant action?”

Until that question is answered, Roseland will remain morethan the site of an industrial fire. It will stand as evidence of what happens when truth is reshaped to serve institutions rather than the public.

Ademocracy cannot function with conditional accountability, nor can it exist when truth is negotiable.

Louisianadidn’talways celebrateCajun culture

In Louisiana, Cajun culture is often celebrated for its food, music and resilience

Over time, many Cajuns were encouraged to forget this past in the name of assimilation.

Iwork for Saul’s Light, alocal nonprofit that supportsNICU and bereaved families, and we were seeing aworst-casescenario emerge.

Due to the ICE and Border Patrol sweep in Louisiana that began in December,ithas become the new reality.Fear has gripped immigrant communities. Businesses throughout the city closedoremptied School-aged childrenbegan to stay home. Andsome mothers —mothers whohave recently given birth to medically fragile babies —have been forced to make the impossible choice:shelter at home or risk journeying to the hospital to visit their newborn babies.

Many of these parents haveother children or dependent family members to care for.Their babies in the NICU are oftenstill learning to breathe on their own.

In January,the unthinkable happened— amother with ababy in aLouisianaNICU received adeportation order.Rather than face the prospect of detention andrisking other family members, shechose to self-deport.Her premature infant,onlya few pounds and too vulnerable to be discharged from the hospital, remained in the NICU.

In the moment when it is most critical for afamily to remain together —for both the physical and mental health of parent and baby —she felt she hadtoleave. At Saul’s Light,wehavekicked into overdrive since the ICE raidsbegan,supporting impacted and vulnerable families throughmaterialitems and NICU visits. This is the first time we’veheard of a mother self-deporting.

But it’sdoubtful this is the first such occurrence, despite prior ICE policiesstating that postpartum, nursing andpregnant mothers would not be detained or deported.

The NICU experience isolates anddestabilizes any family.Fear and deportations have exacerbated these feelings,preventing parents from delivering crucial care to sick infants.

Evidence shows that premature and medically fragile infants are dependent on their parents for touch, bonding and, often,breast milk.Milk providesantibodies, nutrients and white bloodcellsthat can be lifesaving for these infants.

According to aMarch of Dimes report, theprematurity rateinLouisianaroseto 14% in 2025, exceeding the national averagebynearly 4%.

Babies can be in theNICU for ahost of reasons, but preterm birthand low birth weightare driving factors for many.Exact causes for premature birth vary: from environmental factors to lack of medical access to stress.

Oneunarguable factor in having a healthy, full-term pregnancy is accessible andreliable medical care. In Louisiana, the rate of inadequateprenatal care among babiesborn to Hispanic moms was nearly two times thestate average from 20222024.

It begsthe question: What conditions in Louisiana have permitted this to happen?

If this is the statistic before themost recentICE raids, to what extremes will we see these inequities continue to grow?

Border Patrol andICE are moving across thecountry,targeting immigrant hubs. Fear still lies in thewake of the places they have touched

In the New Orleansarea, community members are slowly returning to work, andkids have reported back to school. But NICU mothers are still afraid and torn, unsurewhen it will be safe to visit their infants.

Many still shelter in place, waiting for their babies to be healthy enough to finally comehome. Butwithout the parents’ presence at thebedside to hold their baby,talk to them, feed them with their own milk, when will that be?

It is abrand sold to touristsand asource of fierce pride for locals. However,far lessrememberedis thatCajuns wereonce treated as outsiders in theirown home,systematically discriminated against fortheir language, culture and identity.This was not merely asocial snub; it was astructural effort to eraseanentire way of life.

That history is not symbolic. In 1980, Roach v. DresserIndustrial Valve established acritical legal fact: Cajuns were recognized as aprotected ethnic group under theCivil Rights Actof 1964. The casearose whenCalvin Roach was fired, allegedly due to his Acadian accent and heritage. The court ruled that Cajuns were not simply “white Americans,”but adistinct people with adocumented history of discrimination, often treated as foreignersinLouisiana itself.

In his ruling, Judge Edwin Hunter drove this point home by stating that Cajuns areof“foreign descent” and belong to agroup that has been “subjected to different treatment” than otherAmericans.

For many Cajuns,this remains asobering legal reality: To thegovernment and the courts, their ancestry was officially viewed as foreign, even within their own parishes.

For generations, the state sought to “modernize” by force. The Louisiana Constitution of 1921 effectively mandated English-only education, apolicy thatremained the law of the land for decades.

The enforcement of these rules was often sadistic.Cajun children were physically punished for speaking the only language theyknew.They were forced to writelines, kneel on sharp grains of rice or performmanual labor.Perhaps most traumatic was the refusal of some teacherstoallow children to use the restroom unless theyaskedinEnglish, alanguage many had not yet learned. This led to the ultimate humiliation of children being forced to soil themselves in front of their peers.

This was an intentional attempt to “Americanize”a population seen as backward or culturally incompatible. This era of forced assimilation created amassive economic and social rift.Cultural expressionwas discouraged, and economic opportunity was limited for those who did not conform to standard American norms.

Forgetting, however,cameat acost. When acommunity forgets its own marginalization, it becomes easier to believe that discrimination only happens to others. Legal protections begin to feel abstract or unnecessary, something meant for someone else, somewhere else.

History shows afamiliar pattern. When social or economic pressure rises, societies look for scapegoats. Immigrants, religious minorities, LGBTQ people, political dissidents, whenone group is exhausted as atarget, another is found. What matters is not who is targeted, but how easily the targeting is accepted by the majority.Cajuns have already filled that role once before. They were portrayed as backward, un-American or culturally incompatible. Their language was treated as aproblem to be corrected. Their traditions were framed as obstacles to progress. These narratives justified exclusion while appearing reasonable to those in power.Civil rights protections did not exist because Cajuns were powerful. They existed because vulnerability wasacknowledged. That recognition is not ahistorical curiosity; it is awarning.

Civil rights laws are not guaranteed. They are safeguards that only function whensocieties remember why they were created. Once aculture becomes comfortable dismissing the rights of its least powerful members, the definition of who qualifies as “least powerful” expands quickly Protecting the most vulnerable among us is not charity.Itisself-preservation. A society that accepts the exclusion of one group will eventually find another Cajun history reminds us that belonging can be fragile, protections can erode, and memory can fade faster than we expect. Remembering this past is not about victimhood. It is about recognizing how easily acommunity can move from accepted to expendable. The question is not whether this could happen again. The real question is who we choose to protect, and whatthat choice says about who we are.

ON THE PARADE ROUTE

Carnival season offers us abreak from the usual cares of the world. So as Mardi Gras approaches, we giveyou twoperspectivesonwhat makesour celebrations so unique.

CapturingCarnival’s unique paletteoncanvas

New Orleans is like abeautiful, intricate painting —layered,colorfuland one of akind.

Splashed in apalette burst of sun and sultry sea air onto araw canvas the color and texture of moss and sugar cane Her shadowsand highlights deftly added to through the centuries by the brush strokes of the manydenizens,artisans all, who strolled and sashayed her curved streets.

Framed by natural andmanmade bounds erected to bracket her indomitable spirit on all sides that have failed in their futile attempttotamperdown her meanderings.

and freezing bundled-up nights out on all the different parade routes around the city spentjoyously throughout the years with family and friends.

In there too is theexhilaration of those of us fortunate enoughtobemembers of the many krewes who make up this greatest free showon earth and what it feels like to ride or march from high above thecrowds or right there among them.

Frank Duffy GUEST COLUMNIST

Like the city itself, apainting is aromantic medium from abygone era thatis intended to endure the test of time,tobe passed from generation to generation,to be asubject to marvel andcritique. And there are no better examples of this type of lasting imagery portraying the city than the ones immortalized in oils and acrylics. Camera phones, though handy, frankly just don’tdoher justice.

No, that is left to the more extravagant and permanent paintingsofour talented localartists,likeDegas, Rodrigue, Michalopoulos, Audubon andChase.

Andlike one of Lautrec’smodels, New Orleanslounges in alluring fashion ready for the world to see. Scenes of Carnival —betheyofregal royalty,reveredrevelry or mere rascally rambunctiousness —offervignettes frozenintimefrom apainter’seasel memorializing the city and this pageant wehold so dear to our hearts and anxiously await to resume each and every TwelfthNight. And it is about one of thesepurple, green and gold-hued masterpieces thatI share my musings this Mardi Gras weekend. My wife and Iwererecently enjoying an evening of drinks and hors d’oeuvres at our friends’ Uptown homebefore an 8p.m., dinner reservation at Clancy’s —quite the accomplishmentgiven that it was the first week of Carnival, when Iwas struck by asightfrom across the room that perfectlycaptured thespirit of the season.

The portrait Iwas fixated on was bathed in agolden light that could have easily been the original illumination when this elegant home was built around the turn of the last century,giving it a vintage feel.

At the mere sight of this incredible work, commissioned by my friends from local artist Gretchen Armbruster,I could feel the joy and heartfelt love that Carnivalconveys to our citizenry as we approachyet another perfect weekend and Fat Tuesday crescendo.

The painting stirred memories of all the warm sunshine-soaked afternoons

So too was the feeling evoked recently by homeowners down New Orleans’ grand avenues, broad boulevards and simple back streets when puttingupelaborate housedecorations as makeshift stationary floatsasa form of civic defiance and determination during theCOVID Carnival that we refused to sacrifice.

Theoverwhelmingreason for returning to parade six monthsafter Katrina and even before reclaiming our city and some of her dead could be felt deep down in its beautiful soul as well.

Youcan even almost smell theking cake.

As for its composition, it was abeautifully captured vision of amasked lieutenantofone of our mostprestigious carnival organizations, his identityguarded, mid-parade dressed in thecostume of what is normally reserved for aduke of high standingriding ahorse and stooping down to receive thelove and adoration of hiswife in an embrace. We later learned that the subjects were our gracious hosts, newlyweds who like manyofusenjoy the immersion of Carnival into thefabric of ourlives.

Toocan be seen the paradegoers lining theroute, trying to catch beads, or hear one of ourgreat marching bands thundering by or see asimple, quiet, tender moment like the one they are witnessing here. Andunlike spectators to other parades around the country who can only hope for an errant wave or two, those who await anxiously those blue lights comingtoward them in thedistance under thecanopyofour majestic oaksare full-fledged participantsinthis centuriesold pageant. The painting was, in short,aperfect microcosm, meticulously captured, of what makesour carnival season so special and onewelive for throughout the year Andbecause their faces are obscured, thesubjects have graciously,ifsurreptitiously,offered each of us theprivilege of putting ourselves in that wonderful setting,just as Carnival itself does by inviting each of us to join in on theprocession each andevery year All are welcome.

World! Yeah, you. Wherever you’re reading this from, consider this your standing invitation. No tickets. No velvet ropes. No “sold out”signs. Just show up. Bringyour good sense, alittle patience and shoes you don’tmind sacrificing to the streets. Louisianaiscalling, and when Mardi Gras calls, you don’tsend it to voicemail. Youanswer or you miss something you’ll be hearing about for the rest of your life. Down here, Mardi Gras doesn’tarrive politely.Itslides in sideways, drags achair intothe street and asks who’scooking.

Youdon’tgotoMardi Gras. You stand in it.You wait in it. Youlaugh in it. Youmake new friends you’ll never see again but somehowtrust with your cooler.Time gets real flexible out there. Youtell yourself you’re just catching one parade. Next thing you know,the sun’sgone, your phone battery’sonlife support and you’re holding beads, cups, aplush toy and one object you absolutely cannot explain.

The parades roll like they always do right on timeornot at all. Zulu comes through early,proud and loud,coconuts flying withintention. Rex follows, dressed like tradition itself, calm and royal but still down tohave agood time.

Bacchus shows up big and playful, floats so massive they feel like theygot personalities. Andthen Endymion …whew Endymion flips theswitch on the night. Especially under theClaiborne Bridge, where thebrass bands don’tjust play,they stretch out, sound bouncing off concrete like it’sgot somewhere to be.

Then theMystic Krewe of Femme Fatale rolls through, and the energy shifts. Confidence thick in theair.Strength wrapped in sparkle. They don’trush, don’t beg for attention. They glide like they know exactly who they are, and they do.

As daylight fades, thefire comes out. The flambeaux step into the street carrying flame, spinning it smooth, dancing like thefire knows them personally.Long before floatslit themselves up, these men lit the way

What started as work turned into art. Even now,when lightsflash everywhere, theflambeaux still matter.The crowd quietsjust abit. Phones lower.Fire has away of commanding respect. Here comethe Knights of Chaos, rolling through with jokes sharp enough to cut the tension of the whole year.Nobody safe. Politics catching it.Pop culture catching it. Local nonsense catching it. Sportsheartbreak? Oh,definitely catching it. It’sanopen roast on wheels, and thecrowd loves it because laughing is how New Orleanssurvives what could’ve broken it

Between floats, thestreet fills itself Kids throwing footballs like they’re in the playoffs.Somebody’suncle starts aline

dance and suddenly it’sofficial business. Youmight catch an officer sliding into the steps, pretending it’scasual while clearly knowing the routine. Then comes Muses. Grown adults start hollering like the rent’sdue. Somebody waving both arms like they directing planes. Another person climbing a ladder they definitely shouldn’tbe on, bargaining with the universe. When ashoe finally flies, it’schaos. Screaming. Jumping. Astranger hugging the winner like they just came back from war.That shoe ain’tjust athrow,it’satrophy,a flex, and alifelong conversation starter

The Dancing Dolls step through and remind everybody how joy is supposed to look. It’s beauty with backbone and joy with receipts. And when the noise dips just enough, the Mardi Gras Indians appear.Nofloats. No engines. Just hand-sewnsuits layered with beads, feathers, patience, and time.

Southern in ‘attack’ mode in ‘26

“Hunting season.” That is Southern’smantrafor the 2026 baseball season. It’snot just a play on words with its team name the Jaguars, or anew way to promote the program. Senior outfielder Kameron Byrd said it’sa mentality that the team is embodying after going 24-17 and 15-13a year ago in the Southwestern Athletic Conference.

“It’stimetoattack,” Byrdsaid.

“We’re notgonna sit around and just wait (and say), ‘Well, we’re gonna do it next year.We’regoing to do it the year afternext.’ Let’s do it now.Let’sbring the winning tradition back to Southern that everybody wants to see and put a winning product on the field.” Southern hasn’tclaimed aSWAC championship since 2021. Coach Chris Crenshaw,who is entering his sixth year leading the program, said that aconference titleremains the goal. The Jaguars’ journey to accomplish that officially starts with theirseason openerat7 p.m. Friday against Miami University (OH) at Lee-Hines Stadium. That will be thefirst meeting in a three-game series that continues at 3p.m. Saturday and 1p.m. Sunday The Jaguars lost six starters, including their three leaders inRBIs, last season. They also lost starting pitchers Nick Luckettand Ranard Grace,and top reliever Peyton Huff. Grace and Huff transferred to Southeast Missouri State and Sam Houston State, respectively Reloading the team’sdepth was a priority for Crenshaw,who wants to “be two-deep at every position.” While he doesn’tknow who his ace will be on the mound, Southern returns some pieces of its bullpen whowere given opportunities as underclassmen.

One of those pitchers is junior lefty Genesis Prosper,who had the fourth-best ERA last year (8.58). Crenshaw also welcomedseveral transfers and freshmen to start some games and improvethe bullpen, which sometimes falteredlast season. Southern had the fourthhighest ERA (9.79) in the 12-team SWAC.

“I got some guys with different arm angles showing different

lookscoming outofthe bullpen,” Crenshaw said.“Iwas looking for strike throwers.I need guys to come in at (important) points in the game and throw strikes.”

Crenshaw expectshis team’s offensetobedynamic, despite losing SWAC Player of the Year Cardell Thibodeaux. The outfielder was selected by the San Diego Padres with the 490th pick in the 16th round ofthe MLB Draft. He led the country in slugging percentage (.828), second in batting average(.435)and second in on-base percentage (.541). Finding aplayer to replace Thibodeaux’sproduction is not the goal forSouthern. However, it planstohavethe lineup make up forhis loss collectively with experienced and new players. Crenshaw is confident that Southern can succeed in asimilar way to last year.Itwas first in the SWAC in stolen bases (191), with 38 more thanthe nextbest team,and had the second-best batting average (.312).

Some senior returners that Southern is excited about are Byrd, infielder Jaylon Lucky,infielder KJ White andoutfielder Jacoby Radcliffe. White made the All-SWAC second team and his .347 batting average is the highest among returners.

Sophomore infielder Benny Bikar is one of multiple underclassmen who Crenshawsaidadded over 10 pounds of muscle, which should help them contribute more this season

Acouple of newcomers who have impressed bothCresnhaw and Byrd are junioroutfielder Ryan Hunter,a Florida International transfer,and freshmanutility player Kenyon Hughes. TheJaguars have alsomade changes to their coaching staff. They have three new assistant coaches: hitting and infield coach Auntwan Riggins, outfield and strengthand conditioning coach HamptonHudson and recruiting coordinator Wilhelm Allen.

Hudson played at Southern and wasapart of the2019 SWAC championship team. He also has

experienceasagraduate assistant at Missouri. Allen returned to the Jaguars after serving as an assistant at Florida A&M last year.He wasapitcher on the 2019 and 2021 championship teams and was on staff from 2022 to 2024.

Riggins was the head coach at PrairieView until last year,leading the program for nine seasons.

Crenshaw said his experience, along with his expertise in coachinginfielders, will benefit the team. Allthe additions Southern has made aremeanttoassist in its singular focus.

“Win the regular season,playfor achampionship,”Crenshaw said “That’salways the goal.”

Keeping players healthy is

among his priorities becauseinjuries happened, contributing to last year’sthree-gameexitinthe SWAC Tournament. Health-permitting, Southern in Crenshaw’s eyes, has enough to be “dangerous” in the title race.

His team agrees.

“I feel like we have agood shot of doing that if we allsticktogether and play how we want to play,” Byrd said.

Johnson announcesLSU’s starting rotation

The rotation is set.

LSU baseball willstart sophomore right-hander Casan Evans on Friday,junior right-hander Cooper Moore on Saturday andsophomore right-hander William Schmidt on Sunday in the Tigers’ opening weekend series against Milwaukee, coach JayJohnson revealed on Thursday LSU’sseason begins on Friday against Milwaukee (2 p.m., SEC Network+). Johnson added that a starter for Monday’sgame against Kent State has not been determined.

“Those guys are important, the starters, obviously,” Johnson said. “But I’ve shared this with you many times. The bullpen is the key in college baseball. And I want thoseguystobecelebrated (just) as much.”

Evans earns the opening day start for LSU after becoming a key contributor,mostly out of the bullpen, as afreshman. Last year, he posted a2.05 ERA with 12.1 strikeouts per nine innings in 522/3 innings (three starts).

“He’salwaysbeen astarter,” Johnson said. “I brought him here

withthe intention thathewill be astarter

“I think he was ready lastyear and obviously proved that in the postseasonwith two long outings. Pitchability is excellent.”

Evans’ earning alarger role this season follows asimilar path to what Johnson laid out for junior shortstop Steven Milam and sophomoreoutfielder Derek Curiel. Milam startedatsecondbase his freshman year beforetransitioningtoshort. Curiel was in left field last season before moving to center

“I think players crumble when yougive them too muchtoo fast,” Johnson said Moore transferredtoLSU from Kansas over the summer, throwing332/3 innings out of the bullpen as afreshman before starting 14 gamesand posting a3.96 ERA last season.Hewas arguably LSU’s best pitcher during thepreseason.

“WhenI got back (from winter break), it was ahuge thingjust working on my delivery and makingthings smooth,” Mooresaid, “and not trying to muscle things up and just be anathlete on the mound again.”

Schmidt slides into thelast rotation spot afteranimpressive finish

to thepreseason. He struck out 11 battersinfive innings last Friday and didn’tallow ahit. Schmidt struggled at times last year witha4.73 ERA and 22 walks in 321/3 innings. But he’salwayshad the talent to be more than justan

SECstarter.Hewas aprojected first-round pick in the 2024 MLB Draft, but passed it up in favorof LSU. Following Friday’smatchup, LSU plays at 1p.m.onSaturday and Sunday.Both games will be avail-

It’snot just the championships that show it. LSU has becomethe standard in college baseball, producing three top-three MLB Draft picks in the last three years, posting an 11-2 record in Omaha and winning at least 40 games every year Johnson has been in charge.

So what comes next for aprogram that has already accomplished it all? Johnson will never say it, but it boils down to asevenletter word.

Dynasty

“I appreciate that,” Johnson said, reacting to the word mid-interview. “My thoughts are like, what is my purpose here? …This is coach (Skip) Bertman’sprogram. So,Idon’thave to say,like, ‘Hey the goal is to be in Omahacompeting for the national championship.’

“My thoughts are around, ‘Hey, can every player,coach, person connectedtoLSU baseball, can they be more successful in their life and in baseball because they were apartof this?’ If you’re asking for my mission …someday,would somebody look back at this time here and go, like, ‘That’show you do it.’

The word dynasty should never be used lightly,especially in asport that hasn’tseen it accomplished since Bertman patrolledthe dugout in Baton Rouge in the 1990s. And even he didn’tachieve what LSU is trying to pull offthisseason win athird national championship in fourseasons.A collegebaseball team hasn’tdone that sinceSouthern Calwon five consecutive titles to open the 1970s. But as LSU begins the 2026 seasononFriday againstMilwaukee at Alex Box Stadium (2 p.m., SEC Network+), Johnson knowsthe blueprint his team must follow to becomeadynasty. He couldboil down his research on the topic this offseason to three keys:avoiding complacency,maintainingaccountability,and preserving aculture of selflessness. They won’tguarantee athird championship in four years, but Johnson views these pillars as a start. The tools needed to begin an uphill climb that many have often failed to conquer

“Weall have avery individual responsibility to do our job,” Johnson said, “so that we can continue to be successful.” Complacency

The 2008 Boston Celtics knew how to win. Coach Doc Rivers remembers theextrashotsthey’d putupafter practice. Their best players were the first ones in the gym and the last ones to leave. They’d hang around the training room and study film. What happened next was the culmination of theirhard work. The Celtics won the NBA championshipin2008, breaking a22-year title drought and bringing championship excellence back toa franchise that had dominated the league decades earlier But when Johnson was researching those Celtics teams over the offseason, there wasn’tmuch he could take away from 2008. What caught his interest was what happened the next year That season, Johnson remembers Rivers saying, their best players stopped staying after practice to put up more shots. They didn’t hangaround thetrainingroom or watch extra film. The Celtics weren’tlazy,but perhapsa level of complacency had creptin.

“There was this thought like, ‘Hey,did youget your shots up? No, I’m good. Did you get in the trainingroom?No, I’m good.Did youwatch your video? No, I’m good.,’ ”Johnson said. “And they didn’thavethe same type of success after that.”

Boston didn’t win another championship with its core group after 2008. Complacency may not have been the only reason, or even the main one, but it was afeeling Johnson could relate to.

When LSU tried chasing anational championshipin2024, Johnson acknowledged that the program wasn’t in the rightplace to win it all for asecondyear in arow.To further clarify his point, Johnson turns back to the NBA.

Under coach Pat Riley,the Los Angeles Lakers won four NBA championships. ButRiley noticed adifference inhis team’s mentality theyear following oneoftheir titles.

“They had ayear that was alittle tougher in there, where they kind of (just)wanted to win,” Johnson said. “They still loved basketball, but in the beginning, he talked abouthow they needed it,like they would do anything, they had to have it. And there’s adifference in those two things.”

It’s tooearly to tell which side this LSUteam landson, wanting to win or needingtowin.There’s been no adversity.The grind of along season hasn’tcaught up to the players.

ButJohnson heads into this year more aware ofthe signs that lead to apathythaneverbefore.

“Ifyou’remoreaware of them,” Johnson said, “you canattackthem the rightway.”

Accountability

Johnson’s research into dynastic success this offseason went beyond theNBA.

He spokewith former New England Patriots defensivecoordinator MattPatricia, discussing the differencesinapproach from the first time the Patriots tried defendingtheirSuper Bowl in 2015 to the second time they attempted to do so in 2017. He already idolizes Nick Saban and the six national championshipshewon at Alabama.

But there was an ESPN article that stood out in particular for Johnson. After winning the World Series in 2004, Boston Red Sox general manager Theo Epstein called Patriots coach Bill Belichick to ask how the Soxcould continue to win championships.

Belichick’sresponse was simple

“You’re f*****.”

“Belichick basically told him, you’rescrewed becausepeople stop doingwhat took them to get there in the first place,”Johnson

said. “People will want the credit And people won’tbehonest with you. When you get to acertain level, they’re almost afraid to nobody wanted to tell Bill Belichick the truth, if you will.”

From the story,Johnsonalso learned that people will want individualcredit for the team’s success, fostering atoxic environment in the group’sdrive toward future championships.

For Epstein, that’sultimately what happened in Boston. It briefly drove him out of the organization the year afterthe Red Sox won the World Series. He left the club for 80 days.

“Epsteinfeltthatsome of his bosses were obsessed with optics andcredit,” thestory said,“more worried about personally winning anews cyclethanhelping create theculturethat had developed in Theo’sworld.”

Johnson is already ensuring this doesn’thappen inside LSU’s walls. This preseason,heshowed theplayersa clip from “The Last Dance,” the 10-episode documentary serieschronicling the final year of the MichaelJordan-led Chicago Bulls dynastyinthe 1990s

Theclipfeatures Jordandiscussinghow he was “pullingpeople alongwhentheydidn’twanttobe pulledalong.”Johnsonalso told his team thestoryofhow Jordan once punched his teammate, Steve Kerr in theface during practice, further emphasizing the importance of the workthat goes intopreparing for games.

“Wedon’thave to get to that point. But there was thisthought on those teams that the practices were so intense that thegames really sloweddown,” Johnson said.

“So youlook at what can happen here,especially thepitchersthat threwyesterday,that’s some real high-level pitchingstuff. Can the hittersmake it hard on those guys and vice versa? So when we get to gameday,itslows down.”

Maintaining that culture of accountability is amessage theplayershaveseemingly received.For juniorshortstop Steven Milam, that means nottaking anything for granted.

“Take every intra-squad and get better at something, not just going through themotions,” Milam said.

“Whether it’s the weight room, whetherit’shitting, whether it’s doing theboring drills thatyou see us doing on the side,it’strying to be perfect and master it

“Jake(Brown) is going to hold me accountable, Chris (Stanfield) is going to hold me accountable, Trent Caraway is going to hold me accountable if I’m notdoing it the right way.And you know,that’s how agreat team wins.

—Koki Riley

The real challenge LSUfaces is what happens next. Canthe players be honest witheach other after arough series on the road? Do they learnfromadversity or start pointing fingers at oneanother?

That’sthe true test of championship culture.

“Wementioned accountability. It’svery difficult foryoung people to be willing to do that, to step out of the comfort zone,” Johnson said, “becausea lot of times they’re more worried about being liked and respected.”

Selflessness

If anyone understands what Johnson is trying to accomplish, it’sBertman.

Bertman ledLSU to win fivenational titles in 10 seasons, creating astandard for theprogram that helped Johnson get the Tigers to where they are today.But Bertman isn’tenvious of what Johnson does year after year to maintain a championship-level roster

“I coached for50years,” Bertman said. “And what I’msaying is that (what) Jay Johnson has to do is much moredifficult than (what) Ihad to do.”

Bertman’spoint?The transfer portal andNIL have fundamentally changed the challenges associated withbuilding acollege baseballteam in 2026. Allhehad to do was recruit players out of high school and findthem enough scholarship money

Back then, Bertman could count on redshirting freshmen and developing them within the program to thepoint wheretheywere major contributorsbythe time they were third, fourthorfifth-year players. Theonly freshman during Johnson’s time whosat out their first year —and it wasn’t because of injury —and stayed on theteam for more thantwo years is redshirt junior left-hander DJ Primeaux.

“Let’sjust cut to the chase here: Jay’sa magnificent coach. Idon’t mean he’sjust agood one. He’s magnificent,” Bertman said. “His attitude and the timeheputs in, the wayhetreats the kids, the amount of baseballinformation that he has, thecoaching staffthat he has. “Jay,atthistime, theway baseball works now,isamuch, much,

much better coach than Iwas.” With so many players coming andgoing, fostering aprogramof selflessness andprioritizing the team’sneedsabove allelse only becomes more difficult. NIL money is an alluring factor.Playing time can be apoint of contention enough so that aplayer can leave before the end of apostseason run forthe portal.

And there’snoguarantee that the players Johnson brings in will fit the team-first culture he preaches. Player evaluation has always been important, but it’snever been more criticalincollege baseball than it is today

“He gets (transfers) from other schools like he has now and has had last year.And you’re right, he does agood job of picking them, andthenhedefinitelypicks the best freshman. No doubt about it,” Bertman said. “Kids want to come to LSU, but then you have to pay them.”

It remains to be seen whether Johnson has found the right mix of personalitiestofield aselfless team in 2026. Last year,LSU brought back nine notablecontributors from theseason before and still won achampionship. The Tigers in 2023 were supremely talented and used the portal effectively,but they also had an existing core of veterans hungry to win their first title.

LSU’smakeupthis year is differentfrom those teams, and it’s unique from the last timeJohnson had to put together ateam following anational championship.

“The majority of the guys that contributedtothat(2023) championship moved on,” Johnson said. “I think Iknew we were at adifferent starting point, maybe going into that 2024 season than into this season.”

Between Milam, sophomore center fielder Derek Curiel,Brownin right field and Stanfield in left, LSU has astrong groupofstarters on the position player side back for another year.Milam and Brown were freshmen on the last LSU team looking to chase achampionship.

Pitching-wise,LSU has akey group of sophomores returning after strong freshman campaigns. It also has veteranscoming back, including senior right-hander Zac Cowan and redshirt junior righthanders Jaden Noot and Gavin Guidry

There’splenty of championship DNA on this year’steam,but not everything is set in stone. New faces will flood the infield, and LSU still must replace its top twostarting pitchers from last season. In time, Johnson will have to answer those questions. But as LSU tries to win its third national championship in four seasons and build another dynasty in Baton Rouge, his thoughtsare squarely on mastering themundane: promoting selfless play,creatinganenvironment of accountability and ensuring his players avoid complacency He knows that’sthe best path to adding another muraltothe back wallofhis office.

“Every element of recruiting, player evaluation, player development,operating andrunning aprogram, developing ateam culture anddynamic that people would want to model someday,that’skind of where my thoughts go,” Johnson said. “Because if theystay there, then I’m kind of living out what I wantthe players to do, which is focus on the boring stuff

“And then it gives us the best chance to put ourselves in aposition to accomplish the things like you’re talking about.”

UKRAINIAN OLYMPIAN DISQUALIFIED OVER HELMET: As the men’s skeleton competition got underway, all the attention was on a Ukrainian athlete who wasn’t on the track.

Vladyslav Heraskevych was barred from racing after refusing to give up his plan to race in a helmet commemorating athletes who have been killed since Russia invaded his country.The International Olympic Committee says it breaks rules against making statements on the field of play.

IOC president Kirsty Coventry turned up at the sliding track in a last-minute bid to change Heraskevych’s mind ahead of the opening run of the competition Thursday morning Heraskevych, who had been a medal contender, refused and was excluded from the competition. Heraskevych said it “looks like discrimination” to bar him from competing

13 MEDALS BUT NO THREE-PEAT FOR FONTANA: The most decorated short-track speedskating Olympian of all time has yet another medal.

Arianna Fontana of Italy earned her 13th career medal from six Olympics with silver in the women’s 500 meters but missed out on a three-peat in the event she won in 2018 and 2022 XandraVelzeboer of the Netherlands won and also broke her own world record in the semifinals.

In a major upset,CooperWoods of Australia won freestyle skiing gold in men’s moguls by edging Canadian great Mikael Kingsbury — the sport’s most decorated skier — on a tiebreaker American skier Jessie Diggins overcame bruised ribs to take bronze in the women’s 10-kilometer crosscountry skiing race.Frida Karlsson won her second gold medal by leading a 1-2 finish for Sweden.

CANADA REBOUNDS FROM U.S. LOSS TO DEFEAT FINLAND: Canada’s Emily Clark netted two goals, with Jennifer Gardiner, Daryl Watts and Kristin O’Neill also getting on the scoresheet, as Canada earned a 5-0 win over Finland on Thursday. The victory clinched the second seed in Group A for the Canadians and a quarterfinal meeting against Germany on Saturday. More significantly,it represented Canada’s response to a 5-0 loss to theAmericans onTuesday,marking the team’s most lopsided loss and first shutout in Olympic play.

BRIGNONE BACK IN STYLE: For much of last year it wasn’t clear if Italian skier Federica Brignone could compete at her home Olympics at all,let alone contend for a medal. She came away with gold in the women’s super-G on Thursday, following a year spent largely in rehab after breaking multiple bones in her leg She only returned to racing last month

Brignone shrugged off difficult, foggy conditions to win her fourth career Olympic medal and become, at 35, the oldest female gold medalist in women’s Alpine skiing Romane Miradoli of France took silver and Cornelia Huetter of Austria got bronze.

U.S. hockey rolls over Latvia

MILAN The U.S. goal song “Free Bird” by Lynyrd Skynyrd — blared seven times during over arena speakers on Thursday night Twice, the celebration was only shortlived.

Bouncing back from having a pair of goals wiped out by coach’s challenges, the U.S. opened the Olympics by rolling past Latvia 5-1 on Thursday night in a dominant showcase of some of the country’s best NHL players. Brock Nelson scored twice, four players had two assists apiece and there was production up and down the lineup.

“We believe in the depth we have,” winger Jake Guentzel said. There’s good players on every line. That’s just where American hockey is right now.”

After a weird first period with a couple of video reviews and a tying goal by Latvia, the Americans found their groove and for long

stretches barely let their opponents have the puck. The U.S. outshot Latvia 38-18 and needed starter Connor Hellebuyck to make only 17 saves.

“I felt like we controlled the play,” center Jack Eichel said “We’re going to continue to get better every game in this tournament, every period in this tournament That’s our goal, and it’s a good start for us.”

Elvis Merzlikins was under siege at the other end, and after Nelson’s second goal he sat in the crease with his head bowed in his lap. An odd-man rush became a version of the Harlem Globetrotters on ice with pass after pass: Jack Hughes to brother Quinn to Matthew Tkachuk, back to Jack and then to Nelson to tap into a half-open net with 11.1 seconds left in the second period.

“I don’t think there’s much to do,” Merzlikins said. “If that guy wouldn’t score, probably the other guy would score because I felt completely two open guys, and it’s hard to

save something like that.”

Brady Tkachuk scored the first U.S. goal of the tournament less than six minutes in, and Tage Thompson roofed a nifty backhander on the power play, making coach Mike Sullivan look smart for putting the 6-foot-6 winger on the loaded top unit. Four goals on 32 shots was enough to chase Merzlikins, who was pulled to start the third for Arturs Silovs.

Captain Auston Matthews welcomed Silovs to the Olympics with a power-play goal, assisted on by Eichel and Quinn Hughes. Each of them had two assists, along with Matthew Tkachuk and Jack Hughes. “I just think the depth that we have, it showed,” Brady Tkachuk said “I thought everybody played a great game tonight. You just see the buy-in. You see the buy-in of every line playing the right way.”

Kim falls short of three-peat,

LIVIGNO, Italy Chloe Kim fell short in her bid to become the first Olympic snowboarder to win three consecutive gold medals, finishing second to Choi Gaon of South Korea in the women’s halfpipe on Thursday Choi dethroned the two-time defending champion after she bounced back from an ugly crash that had silenced the crowd. The 17-year-old drew another gasp when she jumped into the lead with a score of 90.25 on her final run.

Kim had one more shot to get back on top, but the 25-year-old American wiped out on her final run and settled for silver Japan’s Mitsuki Ono claimed bronze.

Kim, whose parents emigrated to the U.S. from South Korea, had encouraged Choi throughout her young career Now she has handed over the Olympic title to the teenager she inspired.

“It’s all about passing the torch, so there’s no one else I would have rather stood next to on the podium than her,” Kim said. “I’m so proud of her and I’m so excited to see what she does next.”

Choi’s chances in the final looked to be in jeopardy when she slammed into the incline of the halfpipe and slid to the middle of the course, where she remained for several minutes. After being attended to by medical staff, she rode off the course unassisted.

“After I took my first half I

thought, ‘Do I need to give up?’” Choi said. “I cried, clenched my teeth, and started walking and felt the energy came back into my legs. I thought I can keep trying and I could get back into these Games.”

It wasn’t clear that she would even come back for her second run, but she did and got it down. Then came her turn down the halfpipe that was good for gold.

“This feels surreal I can’t believe my first Olympic medal is gold,” Choi said.

Choi became the youngest X Games winner in 2023 at age 14. Now the first-time Olympian is first non-American woman to win gold in snowboarding’s premier

event since Torah Bright of Australia in 2010. Kaitlyn Farrington won for the U.S. in 2014 at the Sochi Olympics, and Kim triumphed in Pyeongchang and Beijing. Kim injured her shoulder four weeks ago, disrupting her leadin to the Games She competed wearing a brace, which didn’t stop her from dominating the field in qualifying. But after Thursday’s final, the California native said she would need surgery on her shoulder — and that winning an Olympic medal of any color was a victory given that she was riding hurt.

“I think that there was a lot of conversation happening about the three-peat,” she said. “I was think-

ing about it before, but I think the minute I injured myself I was like, that doesn’t matter anymore. So this feels like a win to me because a month ago it didn’t seem too possible.”

Another gold-medal celebration had looked likely after Kim scored 88 points on her first run, while Choi and most of the other finalists wiped out.

But Kim couldn’t stay upright on either of her remaining runs, and her score from the first wasn’t good enough.

Kim is not alone in letting the milestone of golds in three consecutive Winter Olympics slip away at these Games. Czech Ester Ledecka fell short in Alpine snowboarding’s parallel giant slalom, as did Austria’s Anna Gasser in big air Both were also two-time defending champions.

American snowboarding great Shaun White won three gold medals on the halfpipe, but not consecutively He won in 2006, 2010 and 2018. He finished fourth in 2014. White was in the crowd Thursday and cringed after Kim fell on her final run. Kim’s boyfriend, Cleveland Browns defensive end Myles Garrett, was also in her cheering section, along with Snoop Dogg. Like many in the crowd, they had gathered to watch one of the biggest names in snowboarding go for Olympic history Instead, they watched Choi wipe away tears as she held up her medal, one step up on the podium from the rider who has been her idol.

Transfer Innes steadying force for Tigers

After more than three decades coaching gymnastics, LSU’s Jay Clark knows what he’s looking for in a recruit.

He wants someone talented. He wants someone who won’t add unnecessary drama to the team. He wants someone like Emily Innes.

The Tigers got the whole package when Innes decided to transfer to LSU from Washington — trading one purple and gold team for another for her senior season. Clark is grateful for the addition.

“She’s a wonderful person,” Clark said. “You’d be blessed to have a team full of Emilys because of her maturity and the even-keeled way she goes about her business.”

Innes will likely be in the leadoff spot again on floor for LSU when the No. 2-ranked Tigers host No. 17 Auburn on Friday night at the Pete Maravich Assembly Center First vault will be at 7:45 p.m. on the SEC Network.

Innes has been a floor specialist and not an all-arounder for LSU like sophomore Kailin Chio or fellow transfer Madison Ulrich from Denver But what she has done for the Tigers, she has done quite well. Her floor scores have been in a tight, consistent band from 9.80 in LSU’s season opener in the Sprouts Collegiate Quad to a 9.925 in the Tigers’ Jan. 23 home opener against Kentucky

“It’s been really fun,” Innes said. “I started leading off on floor my freshman year (at Washington), so it was a familiar position for me.

“My job is to build momentum for the team. I’m grateful to be in that position.”

Like most in her sport, Innes has been doing gymnastics as long as she can remember start-

ing as a toddler in Mommy and Me classes at a facility called Gymkhana in Pittsburgh, {span} Pennsylvania.{/span}

She reached Level 10 as a junior gymnast A shoulder surgery caused her to miss her senior season of high school, but it didn’t prevent her from receiving a scholarship offer from Washington.

Innes stood out for the Huskies, winning the floor title at the 2024 NCAA Berkeley Regional with a career high 9.95 and earning Big Ten all-conference honors in 2025.

She could have stayed in Seattle, flipping and tumbling for her final year at Washington, but a voice inside her told her it was time for a change

N.O’s Fears, Queen are proving to be rising stars in NBA

Jeremiah Fears needed about

3.8 seconds to jet from one end of the court to the other for a layup at the end of the first quarter of Wednesday’s game against the Miami Heat.

That’s also about how much time Fears and fellow New Orleans Pelicans’ rookie Derik Queen needed to make an impact this season. When executive vice president of basketball operations Joe Dumars selected Fears with the No. 7 overall pick and traded up to get Queen with the 13th pick, nobody knew the duo would become key contributors.

Fears and Queen have shown they can be building blocks for a struggling franchise that takes a 15-41 record into the All-Star break. Their play through the first half of the season made them no-brainers for the Castrol Rising Stars showcase that will take place Friday night as part of the NBA’s All-Star weekend in Los Angeles.

“I’m extremely proud of them,” said Pelicans interim head coach James Borrego. “They’ve earned it. They belong there. They have been two bright stars in this draft class and we are proud to have them.” Fears leads all rookies in games played. He’s played in all 56 games for the Pelicans. Queen ranks second among rookies with 55 games played. Fears’ 13.2 points per game ranks fifth among rookies in scoring. Queen (12.2) ranks seventh Queen is also second among rookies in both rebounds (7.2) and assists (4.1). Fears recorded his first double-double in Wednesday’s loss and was two assists shy of his first tripledouble. Queen, meanwhile, has recorded two triple-doubles.

part of the country,” Innes said.

“I had a great experience, but I went through coaching changes, even before I got there. For my last year, I wanted something different.

“When LSU reached out to me, it was an opportunity I felt I couldn’t pass up. It felt like the right place to be. Now that I’m here, I definitely know it was the right decision.”

Floor exercise has arguably been LSU’s signature event over the years, one filled with great performances by exciting performers like NCAA floor champions Nikki Arnstad, Ashleigh Clare-Kearney, Ashleigh Gnat and Aleah Finnegan, a 2024 Olympian. Llomincia Hall was a fourtime Southeastern Conference

There are still times when she’s had to be the mother and correct him when he’s wrong, but when they’re playing card games or shooting hoops in the driveway it feels like two friends hanging out.

“Everything I do,” Trevor said, “I like to have my mom there.”

floor champion, while Kiya John-

son bookended her LSU career with SEC floor titles in 2021 and 2024.

“Competing here is a lot different with the crowd we have,” Innes said. LSU has built a knowledgeable fan base while leading the nation in attendance so far this season. “It’s a lot of fun. It’s easy to lean on my team and have fun out there with the energy the crowd and the team bring.”

Gymnastics judges are notorious for underscoring lead-off gymnasts, saving higher scores for later in the six-person lineup. Innes said she doesn’t get hung up on that.

“I’m more focused on going out and hitting a clean routine,” said Innes, the only gymnast in the

LSU lineup who does three tumbling passes instead of two. “I think I do a good job of that My goal is to start the team off with a consistent routine and keep it going through the lineup.”

Clark said Innes’ personality and performance are well-fitted to her role in the floor lineup.

“She doesn’t seem to get overwhelmed by the moment,” Clark said.

“She’s not very emotionally high or low,” he said. “She stays very grounded. I have individual meetings with them through the year and I’ve had some of the more enjoyable conversations with her She’s a very thoughtful and curious person. She’s very self-reflective, which is refreshing in this day and age. She’s really about self-improvement and being the best influence she can be.”

The LSU meet will be followed on the SEC Network by the premiere of the “SEC Storied” documentary “The Fighting Tiger” on the life and career of former LSU coach D-D Breaux. It’s scheduled to begin at 9:30 p.m.

“It doesn’t really matter (what team I’m on),” Queen said. “It’s all about the experience. I would have liked to have (Fears) on my team so we can cheat a little bit.

But it’s going to be a good experience.”

It’s the seventh straight year the Pelicans have had at least one player in the Rising Stars Game.

“I’m really excited for both of us,” Fears said. “May the best team win.”

Fears has one main objective.

“Give the fans a show,” Fears said. “All the top talent is going to be in one setting. It’s going to be really entertaining. It was super fun when I used to go watch (All-Star) as a kid. I’m going to be up and close and personal this time.”

Queen’s fondest All-Star memory was the epic Slam Dunk contest between Zach LaVine and Aaron Gordon. That was 10 years ago.

Queen was only 11 years old at the time. Fears was 9 an indication of just how young the Pelicans’ two Rising Stars are.

“I’m excited for what’s ahead for them,” Borrego said. “This is just the beginning It’s an honor to make that game I don’t care where you’re drafted. It’s an honor to be acknowledged like that, not just from our group, but also from outside in the NBA world.”

Fears and Queen are the only two Pelicans participating in All-Star weekend. There are no Pelicans in Saturday’s 3-point competition or Slam Dunk contest. Nor are there Pelicans in Sunday’s All-Star game. Former Pelicans forward Brandon Ingram, now with the Toronto Raptors, was added to the game Tuesday. The last Pelicans player to be named an All-Star was Zion Williamson in 2023

So it’ll be up to Fears and Queen to represent New Orleans.

“I want them to go and enjoy this L.A. trip,” Borrego said “Then come back ready to go and get us to the finish line.”

But if Queen dishes out any assists during the Rising Stars game, they won’t be to Fears. The two are on different squads in the four-team tournament, consisting of first and secondyear players as well as one team of G-League players. Fears is playing on the team coached by former NBA great Carmelo Anthony while Queen’s team is coached by Vince Carter

Their bond has deepened since theNovemberdiagnosisthatshereceivedwhileintheemergencyroom for an unrelated medical issue.

Her fitness watch notified her that she was experiencing an irregular heart rhythm. Her heart felt fine, but she wanted to get it checked out.

The ER doctors detected tumors on her liver She notified a family friend who is a doctor who connected her with a cancer surgeon two days later

After extensive X-rays and blood work, they confirmed she had Stage IV pancreatic cancer that had spread to her liver

“The fight was on,” Stacie said. “I don’t think my life has been the same since then. It’s like I hit a brick wall.”

Despite the diagnosis having a five-year survival rate of just 1% to 3%, she said she’s not giving up. She is fueled by the outpouring of support around her, including from her son.

‘Happy tears’

Trevor’s support for his mom over the past three months has grown since her diagnosis.

While her cancer has changed aspects of their lives, they still have their late-night talks. He brings her flowers and leaves her notes to let her know he’s thinking of her

He also works to keep her from getting sick from other illnesses.

“Every time he comes home, he strips down, he washes his hands, makes sure he’s not bringing anything to get mama sick,” Stacie said. “That child has done anything and everything I’ve asked him to do.”

He ensures she doesn’t miss anything. If there’s a game she can’t make, he’s quick to find a link to live-stream it.

“She always talks about how just me smiling makes her happy,” Trevor said. “I’m doing as much smiling and doing all this to keep her positive.”

He’salsoorganized“StacieStrong” shirtfundraisersandworkedtoovercome his fear of needles to donate to her blood drive.

“I am just deathly scared of needles,” he said. “But anything to help out my mom.” Supporters donated DoorDash gift cards, money and even funds to pay her house note because

“The support has been amazing,” she said. “I cry over it daily, but in happy tears.”

AtAscensionChristian theschool sectioned off a part of the gym for hertoattendhomegamessoshecan avoid catching the flu or COVID-19.

Stacie also cherishes the prayers she has received from the community

“Every time I turn around, I have somebody from school or family or friends just texting, ‘We’re praying for you,’” she said.

“Prayer goes a long way.”

Basketball

Throughout Stacie’s fight, basketball has been there for mom and son. She appreciates the friendships and bonds they have built over the years through the sport.

“Basketball has brought a lot of that support in,” she said. “Basketball has been our second home.”

The sport also brings peace to Trevor

“Everything else that’s going on in life, I just forget about,” he said. “It’s just basketball.”

He’s committed to playing every game for her

“Sometimes it gets a little emotional out there, and I’m not playing good,” he said. “I feel like I’m almost letting her down in a way, but I know that she’s always proud of me.”

In his sophomore season, Trevor began wearing a cross every day Whenever he plays, he hands the necklace to her so she knows that she’swithhimwhenhe’sonthecourt

“She’s been wearing that this season,” he said. “I know that she’s with me in every game.”

Stacie missed the first four district games Trevor played because she didn’t feel well. Still, she worked to keep up with his stats just like she’s always done. He averaged 20.3 points, nearly 10 rebounds, six steals and six assists per game in the four games she missed.

“I looked at him and said, ‘I

don’t know what’s going on with you, but ever since I haven’t been there, you’ve been playing your butt off,’ ” she said.

Stacie noted how she thought he was playing for her, but he said the whole team played for “Mama Stacie.”

Trevor has told her that if she can fight every day the team can, too. Positivity only

Stacie’s motto for 2026 has been “Positivity only.” She and Trevor have fixated on that.

She’s still had challenging moments, such as on Christmas Eve when doctors discovered she had blood clots, which resulted in her spending Christmas in the hospital.

She’s been back in the hospital a couple of more times because of fevers. She rarely leaves the house unless it’s for one of his games or the hospital. Despite everything, Stacie sticks to the mantra.

Trevor hopes they can have one of their dinner outings soon. Their restaurant of choice is Geisha, a sushi restaurant in Prairieville.

“I just love whenever we have our little date nights with just mom and son,” he said.

During these trying moments, Stacie’s persistence inspires Trevor daily

“She teaches me everything,” he said. “Seeing her fight like this, man, I’ve never had to go through anything like this. Seeing her toughness and her strength. It encourages me It makes me have hope that she can fight this.”

Although he will be off to college later this year, the last few months have shown Stacie that she won’t have to worry

Usingshowercapsfor gardening

A.M. or P.M.?

Dear Heloise: Here’sanidea that I’ve benefited from for years. WheneverIstay in ahotel, Isave the shower caps that are usuallyprovided for free. BecauseI garden, Iregularly track in grassclippings and dirt on my shoes. Putting the shower caps on over my shoes when Igooutside prevents this. Ikeep the shower caps near my door so that Ican just pull them on and off as needed. This really helps to keep my floors clean. A word of warning, though: If it’sicy or snowy,don’tdo this. Tooslippery! —Robin W., via email Robin, Iuse them whenI put a30-minuteconditioner in my hair.Itsavesme from washing an extra bath towel.

Todayinhistory: On Feb.13, 1945, Allied forces in World WarIIbegan athree-day bombing raid on Dresden, Germany, killing as many as 25,000 people and triggering afirestorm that swept through thecity center

In 1980, the 13th Winter Olympics opened in Lake Placid, NewYork.

In 2002, John Walker Lindh, whowas captured by U.S. forces as an enemy combatant in 2001, pleaded not guilty in federal court in Alexandria, Virginia, to conspiring to kill Americans and supporting the Taliban and terrorist organizations. (Lindh later pleaded guilty to lesser offenses and was sentenced to 20 years in prison.)

Hintsfrom Heloise

Dear Heloise: Ijust read the hint about labeling prescriptionbottleswith the first two (or three) letters of the prescription. My suggestionistowrite in big blackletters “a.m.” on theprescriptions that you take in the morning and “p.m.” for theprescriptions that you take in the evening. Forpills thatyou take both in the a.m. and p.m., you canwriteboth “a.m.” and“p.m.” on the pill bottle.For prescriptions you take at noon, youcouldwrite “noon” on the pill bottle By identifying when Itake the prescriptionand not the name,itmakes filling my weekly pill cases faster. If youkeep your pill bottles out on thecounter,you can turn them upside down after you’ve takenthe pills forthatday.I keep my pill bottleslaying on theirside in adrawer with the“a.m.” and“p.m.” markings visible.

Itake the morning pills out when filling thepill case and put thebottle back in the drawer after filling thepill case. —L.S., in San Diego

L.S., Ioften write “two/ a.m.” or “one/p.m.” on the bottles.This tells me that I have two pills to takeinthe morning or one pill to take at night. Knowing thecorrect dosage is important, too. —Heloise

Winter squash

Dear Heloise: We love winter squashes, but they can be hard to cut open. Ihave found that using asimple, inexpensive pumpkincarving tool works great! Isaw with it on the hard skin until Iget to the softer flesh. Then Iuse thetool to saw down one side, then theother so that the squash is cut in half. It makes a formerly tough job easy, and there is no danger of cutting myself. Thanks! Patricia, in Baton Rouge

we wanted to do, and the only way to do that was to start something new. That’swhere Temptress came in.”

Unlike Tricounty Terror, the Dallas-basedTemptress quickly found adependable, experienced bassist. Alabama native Wright, amusician since childhood, played guitar in aDallas folk-punk band before joining Temptress. Wright’sbass fell in naturally with Wilson’sguitar and Cuba’sdrums.

“They’re both ear players,” he said. “I hatetosay it’slike ajam band, but that’s what I’m talking about.”

“Wedid our first tour as athree-piece and founda really cool sound,” Wilson agreed. “It’sorganic asit could be.”

All three members of Temptress write songs as well as sing. That musical depth expands the group’s sonic potential far beyond, for instance, aband with alead singer-songwriter-guitarist

backed by arhythm section. “That makes us unique,” Cuba said. “I’ve heard alot of people say, ‘Man, y’all just sound different.’ We have threeviewpoints thatcome together to make this sound.”

Theband’smembers hear howmuch musical progress they’ve madefrom “See,” thedebutalbumtheyreleased in2023, to thisyear’s “Hear.”

“The first album,wewere all gettingtoknow each other,” Wilson said.“This one, you can tell we know each other’splaying style. We’re working together moreon each other’ssongsand more of our personalitiesare in this album.

Wilson counts classic rock andmetalasinfluencesin general and, specifically, Lamb of God,Slayer,Metallica, Led Zeppelin,Jimi Hendrix and Pink Floyd. Cuba spent herformativeyears listeningtogrunge rock of the1980s and’90s. Seattle’s Soundgardenand NewYork City noise-rockers Sonic Youth are high onher list. Wright’s touchstones includeBad Brains, Firehose, Minutemen and Hüsker Dü

Sevenyears into their group’sexistence,Wilson, Cuba and Wright have some basic goals.

“I just want thegroup to play music Ilove for people who enjoy it,” Wilson said. “Just do that all over the country,and see how far we can go. There’sthe fameaspect,but Inever think about that.”

Wright likes the catharsis performing gives him and thecommunity of friends hisfellow musicians provide.

“WhenI’m on stage, it’s agreat stress relieverfor me,” he said. “And most of thepeople Iknow,outside of family,are from the music scene. All my friends are musicians.”

Cuba doesn’tproject far into thefuture, but she does have ashort-term goal.

“For this band, right now, Ihope that our new album is heard and appreciated by as manypeople as possible. We put so much into it, and it’sa really good album. Ihope it getsthe credit it deserves.”

In golf, there is usually more than one way to hit ashot to thegreen —assuming, of course, you are skillful enough to do that.

In bridge, many dealsgiveonlyone side achance to do something meritorious: declarer or the defense.But sometimes both sides will have an opportunity, although one sidemight require the other to err. That applies in thisdeal. Wouldyou prefer to declare or defend in three no-trump after West leads adiamond to dummy’sbare ace?

If you like to declare, look at only the North-South hands andplan theplay. Alternatively, cover theWest and South hands. At trick two,declarer leads theclub king from the board. Howwould you, East, defend?

South starts with only sixtop tricks: twospades, one heart and threediamonds.

The other tricksmust come from clubs, but dummy is short of entries. South should be happy to lose two club tricks and to do it as quickly as possible. So,attrick two, he leads alow club from theboard.Afterthat,everythingisunder control. If the defenders must gettwo tricks in asuit you wish to establish, make them take those tricks as quickly as possible. If Southmakes the mistake of starting withaclub honor at trick

Itisn’tevencomparable.

Jay Johnson doesn’tsee much resemblance between 2024 and 2026. Yes, LSU baseball is/was defending anational championshipin both scenarios. But for the Tigers’ head coach,that’swhere the equivalence ends.

“I don’t know that Ican go back to 2024 and go,‘Hey, Ipickedupabunchthatit’ssuper beneficialfor this group,’ ”Johnson said. “Becauseyou’re resetting the team, and you’re resetting theculture. And if you’re all in on nowand 2026, 2025 is completely irrelevant. Andthat goes for the coaching staff, too.”

LSU BASEBALL SEASON PREVIEW

LSU

Continued from page 4M

In LSU winning its eighth national championship in program history last June, Johnson etched his name in the history books as one of LSU’s greatest coaches, regardless of the sport. In just four seasons at the helm, he’s won two national championships and has gotten the program back to where it was under Skip Bertman: At the top of the college baseball world.

Johnson knows that turning this run of success into a full-blown dynasty, to win a third title in just four years and repeat as champions in June, will require more than just talent. But with the 2026 season just around the corner — LSU faces Milwaukee on Friday at Alex Box Stadium (2 p.m., SEC Network+) — the Tigers are now in a stronger position to repeat as champions than the last time they tried to defend the crown.

“The majority of the guys that contributed to that (2023) championship moved on,” Johnson said. “I think I knew we were at a different starting point, maybe going into that 2024 season than into this season.”

Most notably returning from last year is LSU’s entire starting outfield and shortstop.

Left fielder Derek Curiel moves to center field and is projected to be a top-10 pick in this summer’s draft as a draft-eligible sophomore Senior Chris Stanfield, who started in center a year ago and now moves to left, posted career-high numbers after transferring in from Auburn. Junior Jake Brown should cement himself as the everyday right fielder after sharing at-bats with Josh Pearson last season.

Where the Tigers’ outfield stands today is much different than in 2024, when LSU’s lone returning starter was Pearson, who didn’t crack the everyday lineup until the second half of the 2023 season.

“There’s guys that have talent, and there’s guys that have skills that show up on game day to really help you perform and win on both sides of the ball,” Johnson said. “And those three are at the top of it.”

Junior Steven Milam will be the shortstop again after only committing 5 errors in 68 games in his first season as a starter there. His bat caught fire during the postseason after a rough SEC campaign, and there’s no shortstop in the country that Johnson would rather have.

“Towards the end of the season, and clearly in the postseason,” Johnson

LSU left fielder Derek Curiel makes a catch on June 16 during a game against UCLA at the College World Series in Omaha, Neb

said, “he played to the perfect blueprint of a player that I want offensively.”

Despite valuable returning pieces in the outfield and shortstop, LSU still had to replace the rest of its infield and find a new designated hitter this past summer. But unlike in 2024, Johnson was aggressive in finding solutions through the transfer portal.

Junior Trent Caraway transferred from Oregon State to play third base.

High Point senior infielder Brayden Simpson and Kansas State fifth-year

senior infielder Seth Dardar are contenders to start at second or DH. GCU transfer and senior first baseman Zach Yorke is a leading candidate to start.

LSU has pegged sophomore Cade Arrambide to take over as the starting catcher after mostly starting midweek games as a freshman. But he’s proven to be an exception to the rule.

Fifth-year senior Tanner Reaves and sophomore John Pearson are back, but they’re LSU’s only returning infielders from last year’s team besides Milam and Arrambide.

“It’s tough, man,” Johnson said as he discussed the challenges of building a roster during the transfer portal era. “I really understand what these high-level football programs are going through right now, because we go through it every summer.”

LSU’s strategy of loading up on experienced players to fill positional needs is in sharp contrast to 2024. To replace Dylan Crews, Tre Morgan and others after 2023, LSU turned to rising

The Tigers likely won’tneedtolean on their younger players in 2026.Besides loading up on veterans in the portal, LSU lost eight high school signees to the draft, easily the most prospects to depart forprofessional baseball during Johnson’stime in Baton Rouge.

“We got absolutely gut-punched with our high school talent in the draft,” Johnson said. “We have to have aplan for everything, and we hada plan for looking at professional baseball, pouring more money into acquiringtalent in thedraft.”

Right-handersWilliam Schmidt and Mavrick Rizy and left-hander Cooper Williams return after showing varying degrees of promiseasfreshmen. Williams hasbeen particularly dominant during thepreseason and could earn a spotinthe rotation.

LSU catcher Cade Arrambide celebratesafter hitting atwo-run home runagainst UL on March 25 at Alex Box Stadium.Arrambide is set to takeoverasstartingcatcher.

On the mound, LSUloses its top two starters as it did following the2023season, butthe Tigers enter thisyear betterpreparedtofill those voids.

Sophomore right-handerCasan Evans and senior right-hander ZacCowan dominatedopponents aseason ago. Both spent most of theyear as relievers, butshowed they canget through an SEClineup more than once. Of the two, Evans is the most likelytostart.

LSUhas leaned on thetransferportal to fill at least one starting spot in each of the last three years,and that’sno different this season. Kansas transfer Cooper Moore, ajunior right-hander, has emerged as aleading candidate to start on weekends becauseofhis propensity to throw strikes and awicked changeup.

Even after Moore,Cowan andEvans, much credit belongs toJohnson and pitching coachNateYeskie for the depth LSU has built up on the mound heading into thisyear.The same couldn’t be said in 2024, when Luke Holman andGage Jump emerged as star transfers, and GriffinHerring ar-

Redshirt junior right-handerGavin Guidry is back after aback injury sidelined himfor allof2025. Jaden Noot, another redshirtjunior right-hander, also returns after working his way into an important role lastyear LSU needed to dip into the portal again to addressits lack of southpaws, most notably adding North Dakota State sophomore Danny Lachenmayer and Oregon junior SantiagoGarcia. But besidesfreshman right-handers MarcosPaz andReagan Ricken, much of LSU’spitching staff will be comprised of returning armswho can workintolarger roles next season.

“I thinkthere’s anumberofguys that have theability to getthrough thelineup twice or extendtheir pitch count,” Johnson said, “probably more than we’ve had (in thepast).”

Inevitably,there will be bumps in the road forLSU this spring. The Tigers don’thave as muchpower at the plate as they did ayear ago. Most of their left-handed pitchers are unproven, and they’ll be trusting acatcher who has onlystarted five SEC games.

Butincomparisonto2024, it’s not much of acomparison. LSU is in abetter position to repeat as champions this season than two years ago.

“There aremore guys that sawthe value andwhat it took to play (at ahigh level) like that on agame in andgame out basis,” Johnson said. “…(They) can make someofthe things that were helpful to lastyear’steam more translatable to this team.”

‘THE GOLD STANDARD’

As Jake Brown took histurn at thepodiumatLSU’spreseason baseball media day in Alex Box Stadium’sChampions Club, he was mindfulofsomethingsignificant.

“Notmany peopleincollege baseball have aroom called the ‘ChampionsClub,’ ”hesaid. Or, for that matter,have acollegebaseball program that enough people care abouttohaveapreseason media day.

“It’sthe goldstandard,”the Tigerout-

fielder said.

College baseball’sgolden boys won their second College World Series title in three seasons in 2025, theprogram’s eighth overall. Southern California still has themost with 12, but 11 of those dozen trophies were won before LSUwon its first in 1991. Beforeformer coach Skip Bertman led theTigers to lofty status as college baseball royalty, lighting apath for other programs to follow

Now there are programsthat have fancier ballparks than LSU.That also have their own great traditions and rabid followings. But none in that timehave won morethan three CWS titles. None have a ballpark that contains moretrophies than The Box

There are plenty of challengers to the throne this year —schools like UCLA, Texas, Arkansas, and even last year’srun-

COOPER MOORE •RHP,JR.

Evans was arguably LSU’sbestpitcher not named Kade Anderson or AnthonyEyanson, allowing three earned runs in 111/3 postseason inningsand finishing last year with a 2.05 ERA. Now, he enters this season as LSU’sace.

The transfer from Kansas doesn’t have the most explosive fastball, but he throws strikes(only 19 walks in 882/3 innings), possesses awicked changeup and has abig sweeper Johnson believesthat Moore was LSU’s best pitcher during the fall.

DANIEL HARDEN •OF, JR. •(L) Harden led McLennan Community Collegeto the Junior CollegeWorld Series last summer, hitting 12 homers, 16 doubles and stealing21bases on the year.The Catholic Highgrad provides valuable outfield depth.

ZACCOWAN •RHP,SR.

Cowan’smasterful start against Arkansas in the CWS was astrong sign that he can be an effectiveSEC starter. His decision to return to school instead of heading to MLB figures to be amajor boost for LSU’s staff.

MARCOS PAZ• RHP,FR.

Likewith Kade Anderson, Pazprobably would’ve been picked in the first tworoundsofthe draft if it weren’t for Tommy John surgeryknocking out his senior season. But nowthe hard-throwing righty is healthyand readytocontribute immediately.

GAVIN GUIDRY• RHP,JR.

Aback injurysidelined Guidryfor LSU’s entire championship campaign. But he’s healthynow and ready to contribute out of the bullpen or as astarter after posting sub-four ERAs in each of his first two seasons.

REAGAN RICKEN• RHP,FR. LSUlost nearly half of its loaded recruiting class to the draft, but Ricken was among the Tigers’ top recruits who made it to campus. ESPN ranked him as atop-125 playerinthe draft, and he played quarterback in high school.

MAVRICK RIZY •RHP,SO. Rizy’sdeliveryhas looked muchsmoother and in sync this preseason. After leading the Tigers in appearances and dominating in the Cape League (12 Ks, 0earned runs in 62/3 innings) last year,Rizycould become LSU’stop late-inning arm.

DANNY LACHENMAYER •LHP,SO. The North Dakota State transfer had a2.37 ERA in 38 inningsfor aBison team that reached the NCAA Tournament. He allowedtwo earned runs in an outing against LSU,but had two shutout appearances at the Fayetteville Regional.

JADEN NOOT• RHP,JR. Noot rose through LSU’s depth chartand had a keyrole by year’s end, startinginthe NCAAand SEC Tournaments and throwing in theCWS He has an excellent split-changeup, but he still needs to work on his consistency

SANTIAGO GARCIA •LHP,JR. Along with Lachenmayer, Garcia is expected to have abig role in relief. The Oregon transfer had a 4.20 ERAand allowedno earned runs in 11 Cape League innings. He wasalsoMilam’s high school teammate at Centennial in NewMexico.

WILLIAM SCHMIDT •RHP,SO.

Schmidt was arguably the most highly soughtafter draft prospect LSUhas ever gotten to school.But he struggled last year as opponents jumped on hisfastball, and hiscontrol was inconsistent. Johnson hopes that astrong offseason unlocks his potential.

DJ PRIMEAUX •LHP,JR. Primeaux onlythrew14 innings ayear ago, but he was among the team leaders in appearances and was aspecialist against lefties.His command was an issue, but Johnson is optimistic about adjustments made during the offseason.

ner-up, Coastal Carolina. None bears the Tigers’ singular burden. Nonehas theopportunity to addtotheir already established gold standard with their ownspecial nugget of history

LSU is trying to win twoCWS titles in arow for just the secondtime in program history,joining the1996 and 1997 Tigers. Including the2023 CWStitle, this team is tryingto do something evenBertman’sjuggernaut versionof the program everaccomplished: win the CWS three times in four years. LSU won three in five years, most recently 1996, 1997 and 2000. But since USCwon fivestraightfrom 1970-74, no one hascome close to three outoffour.

On Jan.23, LSU baseball media day, awork crew was out in front of Alex Box Stadium, preparing aspot for the monument to commemoratethe 2025 team alongside LSU’s seven previous national champs.

The 2026 Tigers have the chance to cementa special kind of dynasty with athird title in four seasons. The chance to take the gold standard to platinum. It’sachance that may never come around again for any band of LSU baseball players. Ever

ity pieces with another stellar recruiting class and some choice transfers like 295-pound first baseman Zach Yorkefrom Grand Canyon, who Brown quipped could becomeLSU’s“Creole Bambino.”

Andatthe top,there is fifth-year coach Jay Johnson. Aman at the top of hisprofession. Aman —who now that he’s assembled achampionship-caliber roster —faces the task of leading a team on the narrow,fraught pathback to yet another,but also unprecedented, pinnacle.

“Twenty-twenty-five,”Johnson said, “will go down as a‘forever’type team. We’ve set agood blueprint for how to be successful.”

That blueprint includes drawing on thememory,the swagger of what the 2025 team did, but at the same time not dwellingonit.

“If you’re all in on 2026,” Johnson explained, “2025 is completely irrelevant.

Twenty-twenty-five will go down as a ‘forever’ type team. We’ve set agood blueprintfor how to be successful.”

LSU coach

“This team,” sophomore center fielder Derek Curiel said, “is trying to make its own history.”

What an awesome opportunity. What, in some respects, terrible responsibility. What was the truelinefrom Shakespeare’sHenry IV?“Uneasy lies the head that wears acrown.”

Thou had best believeit.

The preseasonpollvoters think these Tigers can do it, or be right in lineto do it. Twoofthe major preseason rankings—the USA Today coaches’ poll and Perfect Game—have LSUNo. 1. D1 Baseball and Baseball America have the Tigers at No. 2.

The reasons are easier to grasp than most of Shakespeare’sEarly Modern English verses. The Tigers return players like Curiel, whocould well become LSU’snext.400 hitter;shortstop Steven “Monster” Milam; and Brown, who led the team in batting at the2025 CWS. Pitchers like Casan Evans, who couldwell become LSU’snext Kade Anderson,the No. 3pick in last year’s MLB draft. They’ve added some qual-

“Wewant our past experience to help us to help this team to be as good as it can be. We can use it,but it doesn’thave alot of relevance.”

Curiel said these Tigers are “bigger,faster,stronger” than the 2025 version. Testament tothat is outfielder Chris Stanfield, who put off pro baseball for asenior season’sshot at more college glory and put on another 10 pounds of muscle.

“I thinkwe’ll look a little bitbetter in our uniforms this year,”Curiel said.

In the end, there is only one piece of clothing that fitsthese Tigers best: the championship T-shirtshanded out to this year’sCWS winners after they dogpile on the infield at Charles SchwabFieldinOmaha, Nebraska.

That moment, theone that transforms abunch of young men playing akid’sgame into that “forever team,” is the goal for every college baseball squad in these final moments before the season’sfirst pitch is thrown and thefirst run is plated.

Only one team has achance to concoct avintageversion of history.The one that wears purple and gold and has abillboard in right field bearing the years ofthe program’s eight previous national champions.

In some respects, it’sanall-or-nothingproposition.

“They don’tremember you,”Curiel said flatly,“if you don’twin.”
