Henifin in favor of Jackson water takeover bill, calling it ‘a great foundation’
SUMMARY: Ted Henifin, Jackson’s interim third-party water manager, endorses Senate Bill 2628, aimed at establishing a water system authority for the city once his tenure ends. The proposed Mississippi Capitol Region Utility Act would create a nine-member board, appointed by the governor and lieutenant governor, to govern water and wastewater services. Henifin suggests the bill incorporates his feedback from the previous legislative session and recommends defining a start-up cost in the FY 2025 state budget. The bill, having passed the committee, outlines board responsibilities, including managing federal funds, setting rates, issuing bonds, and purchasing assets. Henifin is to discuss further amendments with lawmakers.

Trump imposes tariffs on Canada, Mexico and China, spurring prospect of inflation and trade war
SUMMARY: President Trump signed an order imposing significant tariffs on imports from Mexico, Canada, and China, citing the need to protect Americans and curb illegal immigration and fentanyl production. This action led to swift retaliation from Canada and Mexico, with both countries implementing their own tariffs. The tariffs could worsen inflation, affecting prices on goods like groceries and gas, and harm trade relationships. While Trump aims to address national security and economic issues, his actions have sparked concerns about global economic disruption, with analysts warning of potential damage to the U.S. economy and voters’ trust in his promises to lower prices.

SUMMARY: No. 23 Ole Miss put up a strong fight but fell short in a 92-82 loss to top-ranked Auburn. Despite a solid effort, including a standout performance from Sean Pedulla with 29 points, Ole Miss struggled with poor free-throw shooting and rebounding. Auburn’s big men, Johni Broome and Dylan Cardwell, dominated with 20 points and 13 rebounds each. Auburn’s 50% three-point shooting and ability to answer Ole Miss’ rallies proved decisive. Coach Chris Beard was optimistic about his team’s growth, while Auburn’s Bruce Pearl praised Beard’s progress in Oxford. Ole Miss will next face No. 12 Kentucky.

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.
