National politics expected to control talk at this year’s Neshoba County Fair
SUMMARY: At the Neshoba County Fair, national politics, particularly the tumultuous 2024 presidential election, are expected to dominate discussions, despite the absence of presidential candidates. Recent events, including an assassination attempt on Donald Trump and Joe Biden’s withdrawal due to mental health concerns, have added to the political upheaval. State officials, including Republican Lt. Gov. Delbert Hosemann and State Auditor Shad White, are anticipated to focus their speeches on these developments. Additionally, Democratic Senate nominee Ty Pinkins aims to challenge incumbent Roger Wicker. Political speeches will occur daily, highlighting Mississippi’s recent successes and the competitive state supreme court race.

SUMMARY: Dak Prescott, former Mississippi State quarterback, is now the highest-paid player in the NFL after signing a four-year, $240 million extension with the Dallas Cowboys, featuring a record $231 million guaranteed. Despite the lucrative contract, Prescott emphasizes that his main motivation is to lead the Cowboys to championship glory, a feat they haven’t achieved since the 1990s. Over his eight seasons in Dallas, he has recorded impressive stats, including 29,459 passing yards and 202 touchdowns, and he earned the Walter Payton Man of the Year Award in 2022 for his philanthropic efforts. The deal was finalized before the Cowboys’ season-opener against the Cleveland Browns.
