A.J. Brown felt like a ‘paid actor’ in Eagles’ Super Bowl loss to Kansas City
SUMMARY: Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver A.J. Brown recently had a memorable encounter with LeBron James outside the Lakers’ locker room, as he mingled with teammates seeking a photo with the basketball star. Brown, inspired by James, is focused on achieving his own championship dream after losing the Super Bowl to the Kansas City Chiefs two years ago. Despite an impressive season with over 1,000 receiving yards, Brown remains haunted by missed opportunities in that game. As the Eagles prepare for a rematch, he emphasizes that the team’s focus lies solely on winning the title, echoing James’ championship mentality.

Qualifying period closes with a dozen Democrats challenging Jackson Mayor Chokwe Antar Lumumba
SUMMARY: Jackson Mayor Chokwe Antar Lumumba has officially submitted paperwork for reelection, aiming for a third term despite a federal indictment.

Lumumba is accused of accepting $50,000 in bribes related to a hotel project and could face 75 years in prison if convicted. The Democratic primary has attracted a diverse field of candidates, including state Sen. John Horhn and former Hinds County Supervisor David Archie.

Mississippi investors could see restitution in $106 million Vanguard settlement
SUMMARY: Mississippi residents may receive compensation from a $106 million settlement with Vanguard, following a lawsuit accusing the company of not disclosing tax implications of retirement fund profits. Over 40 states were involved in the case. The investigation, led by Mississippi Secretary of State Michael Watson and the SEC, revealed Vanguard’s decision to lower investment minimums, causing many investors to redeem shares and triggering capital gains taxes. Vanguard failed to notify investors of these taxes. The SEC will compensate affected investors through its Fair Fund program, though the amount and timing of payouts are still to be determined.
