So would an exercise program meet the new “reasonable person” standard?
“No,” one expert said, before pausing and then clarifying, “Whose definition of ‘reasonable’?”

Since TANF’s creation, states have spent billions on non-cash programs, some “with tenuous connections to a TANF purpose” – one generous way to describe the overarching Mississippi welfare scandal. New rules would require purchases to be “reasonable.” mississippitoday.org/2024/02…

Freezing wind and snow is expected across parts of the state as early as Saturday. School closures have already been scheduled in many areas. Organizers with Mississippi Move and the Mississippi People’s Movement are encouraging residents to get prepared for the worst.
The @TheJusticeDept should further investigate the patterns of practice within Mississippi’s Sheriff’s departments. Hopefully, Lexington’s current investigation will uncover a pattern that implicates other rouge Sheriff’s across the state. #MAPS

How much does it cost to see the Oktibbeha County Sheriff's Department's body cam policy?
a lot... but they said it won't be more than $206.04... muckrock.com/foi/oktibbeha-c…
This is absurd. Clarksdale Police Dept. is charging $125.44 to see its use of force policy.

Mississippi law already does all of that except that it gives traitors a museum in Biloxi instead of hanging them.

Author Jonathan Odell, native of Laurel, Miss., writes that “Home Town,” a feel-good HGTV home-rehabilitation show, sweeps Laurel’s racist past and gentrified present under the rug.

Why is Sheriff Eddie Scott still in office? He is clearly a threat to Public Safety in Clay County. The @CivilRights should investigate these allegations.

This headline is gaslighting. When Gulfport Police officer Kenneth Nassar fired more than 8 rounds into a crowded Family Dollar store to kill 15 year old Jaheim McMillan it was not described as a mass shooting incident by the media.
