When Johnny DuPree won his Mississippi Senate seat in November 2025, it marked the first time Hattiesburg residents would have a Black senator representing them in Jackson, even though 51% of the city’s population is Black.

Here’s one news report to set the stage. I give some explanation in this thread. https://evanstonnow.com/feds-to-dismiss-broadview-six-case-in-full/ #Lawfedi 1/
Feds dismiss ‘Broadview Six’ case in full

Hearing on redactions from grand jury record led to the move.

New in PN: The slow-motion humiliation of RFK Jr

"The turmoil at the FDA is a sign of the administration’s deeply unserious approach to public health. MAHA never had a solid constituency on the right, and its support appears to have eroded further the longer the nation has stared into Kennedy’s beady, fanatic eyes." https://www.publicnotice.co/p/kennedy-hhs-out
