Jackson Jambalaya

Well they're cutting off heads now in France while our impotent Kenyan looks on without a clue.

Well said, 903

If these indictments continue there wont be any democrats left in the state.

9:30--Putin is poised to run the world once his puppet boy gets elected. You will pine for the Kenyan's days..

Anyway--bust them all. It's about time someone gets caught for something in this state. We're 50th for a reason--and the #1 to me is the politicians. (most are incompetent or 'on the take')

What about that electronic monitoring company and the other medical company. I bet former commish Johnson hiding his head.

10:01....do you honestly believe that or are you just stirring up fear to sway people to vote for Hillary. I know it couldn't possibly be the latter. Democrats only use messages of hope and smiley faces to get voters. They would never ever use fear.

If you really believe that Trump is a Putin puppet, then you truly are an idiot.

10:14, the democrats have already decided that Putin is for Trump and that is the reason for the emails the DNC sent to each other. What the DNC did and said does not matter to them. One thing they are trying to keep quiet that was in the emails hacked is about the Hillary Victory Fund. DNC collected millions of $ and gave all except one half of one percent to Hillary.

10:14 - Really? I bet you cry little boy (or girl) tears at night as you await the Muslim invasion of the US as according to Franklin Graham and the American Family Association.

Meanwhile you dismiss the real threat of Putin. No wonder Mississippi is full of fat asses who blindly cling to their guns and religion.

Don't feed the idiot troll @ 10:31 AM.

10:31 is actually correct.....how can you defend being last forever? in everything?

If MS was an SEC football team....you would have fired everybody in charge a dozen times for losing every single thing.

I can't believe a single person in the state is surprised over this. THIS is what politics and lobbyist do EVERY single day in our "great" state. It's not Republucan. It's not democrat. It's the Mississippi way. This is what the dishonorable Gov Feel does (see previous JJ post on Frontiers group). If you want business or an appointment or a "favor" from Feel, you have to do business with Frontiers. They (because they are completely inadequate at doing anything), sub/contract it out & take their percebtage off the top. This is one example. There are thousands in our state. The problem with Epps? He got too greedy. Please believe me when I say it happens in every single political arena in this state. Tate is just as guilty. The list goes on and on.

I imagine the "conservatives" here think a real God-fearing white man would respond with another $1 trillion invasion of a Middle Eastern country. Who cares if we set up another satellite for Iran or spawn some more terrorist armies? We have to demonstrate our non-impotence. Or something.

Back to the Chris Epps/Cecil McCrory scandal...Does anyone else find it interesting that the Rankin County Board Attorney Fred Harrell's law firm building burned to the ground in the middle of the night back in October 2014? A building he was in for 38 years and with a manager who has worked for him for years. In August 2014 the indictment was filed against the former Rankin County School President, Cecil McCrory and Epps...

Putin running the world; only in his dreams. What do you think the Clintons, Obamas, and Gores want to do?

This is very disappointing. 14 comments and no names...

9:03 You got this thread about something else off on the wrong foot. Take note:
(1) The President of the United States of America (may God preserve him) is not a "Kenyan" you bloody fool. Only your boy Trump could say such a vile lie with a straight face and NEVER apologize because sick narcissists can NEVER admit they are wrong; they are sick.
(2) If sick boy Trump is ever in office, Putin will overrun the Baltic States (Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania) with troops and tanks to crush a free people because Trump says NATO is just another extortion racket to be exploited.

12:06, you left out the part where Trump turns his back when Russia starts marching across Europe and Putin forgives billions of dollars loaned to the Trump Empire.

@11:57. I mentioned the day it burned that something big was about to happen. No it is no coincidence. Shortly after epps was indicted. His law partner working there was out of town on vacation from what I hear. I believe, but not 100% certain, they are acquaintances. I feel certain something will come of that. Building burns, Weathersby steps down...all too coincidental. That law office is old school too. My guess is its a lot of paper and not much on the computer.

Maybe it is time for Russia, U.S. China, and Japan divide up the world and call it even. No more wars.

@ 11:57am

You just provided the "ah ha!" moment! But that is a damn good point!

I'll give you a name that is RUMORED (from someone who is involved), but won't be included - Bennie Thompson. RUMOR is that DOJ in DC told the Jackson office to stop going up the food chain even though their visuals literally showed things tying back to (ALLEGEDLY) Bennie Thompson. This is all RUMOR, of course.

While these liberal loons suck the tit of tin foil hat theories on Trump and Russia without any facts this really happened:

Russian Purchase of US Uranium Assets in Return for $145mm in Contributions to the Clinton Foundation - Bill and Hillary Clinton assisted a Canadian financier, Frank Giustra, and his company, Uranium One, in the acquisition of uranium mining concessions in Kazakhstan and the United States. Subsequently, the Russian government sought to purchase Uranium One but required approval from the Obama administration given the strategic importance of the uranium assets. In the run-up to the approval of the deal by the State Department, nine shareholders of Uranium One just happened to make $145mm in donations to the Clinton Foundation. Moreover, the New Yorker confirmed that Bill Clinton received $500,000 in speaking fees from a Russian investment bank, with ties to the Kremlin, around the same time. Needless to say, the State Department approved the deal giving Russia ownership of 20% of U.S. uranium assets

That is reality. Hillary is much more in the bag for Russia then Trump will ever be or as you allude is.

Freddy Harrell is the Rankin County school board attorney. Needed to be clarified because many people confuse the school board and the board of supervisors.

I thought 'open thread' meant say whatever you want to about the subject at hand. Not...let's talk about the Russian president, how fat our legislators are, NATO, the SEC and Tom Head's notion of impotent politicians.

Regardless, back to the subject: Methinks there are more than several current employees at MDOC who should go ahead and get those vacations out of the way. If not....they gonna lose it soon.

And here I was, opening an open thread about the MDOC fallout and arrests, only to the comedic stylings from email forwards and Facebook screeds. Dang.

Oh the irony if the Rankin School Board and Robert Graham get caught in the same net.

Has any internet debate about politics ever resulted in anyone changing their minds?

Anyone who votes for Donald Trump is a traitor. The guy is a moron anyway.

3:48....how can a man with an IQ that high be classified as a moron? I think you just revealed something.

It's rare that I comment, however, I decided to comment about the lawyer's office that burned. I had not heard about the fire. Most of my hours are spent with my small law practice. I immediately scan every piece of paper, email and document that comes into my office then it is immediately backed up to the cloud. I thought that all lawyers were doing the same but maybe criminal lawyers don't want their files to always be available. Right? I quit doing criminal case in about 1973 so I have never had a problem with worrying about something rising to the surface that would cause a problem for me or a client.

9:19; If you quit doing that in '73 then you must be about 85, right? I'm surprised you know how to back up a file.

7:27 pm Please let us know how you know Trump's IQ? Many rich boys get into colleges because their father's donate loads of money to the college.
Why wasn't he accepted at one of the more prestigious prep schools?
I'm sure if Trump graduated with honors from any school he attended, we'd have heard about it by now. I'm sure if Trump was a member of Mensa, he'd have told us that as well.
And, while we're at it, please explain why a Republican controlled Congress with the GOP in the White House, after spending millions of our tax dollars to investigate Whitewater and Benghazi and the emails, couldn't " lock her up"? Are they all that incompetent?
And, do explain how a FORMER Secret Service agent whose testimony under oath didn't jive with the contents of his book published by a French company ( Hachette owns the inset publisher) IS credible. An Indian film maker from Mumbai who spent time in prison is apparently credible to you. Assuage who Clinton wants to put in an American prison for leaking secrets that put our troops in peril is credible. But, you don't believe homeland security agents that the Russians hacked the DNC for months. Tell me how you missed noticing that Trump sent a guy to Russia just prior to the leak and how you missed the speech he gave and with whom he met?
I don't like Clinton because I believe she's still the Goldwater Girl she used to be when it comes to economic policy. She has supported the worst of Wall Street, " Too Big to Fail" and global economic theory.
But, compared to a man that hasn't said ONE thing of substance and can't possibly do what he says he will do unless he's becomes our version of Putin, she is starting to look better to me.
Of course, my vote and yours doesn't matter in Mississippi. We were given away in the mid 80's and only the 8-10 key state voters have any real say in who will be our President. The national parties just didn't want to waste money having to campaign in every state!
Try to be a realist and not a party pawn who falls for platforms and philosophical positions that neither party, even your beloved Reagan followed ( please look at spending and the growth of government during his administration...the actual numbers).
Try not to be a dupe to politcal propaganda. For a change, do check out the biases and funding of the BS that now passes for " information" these days!

7:42 Please read your comment and realize what you wrote applies to both parties.

"And, while we're at it, please explain why a Republican controlled Congress with the GOP in the White House, after spending millions of our tax dollars to investigate Whitewater and Benghazi and the emails, couldn't " lock her up"? Are they all that incompetent?"

Proves the fact level of the typical liberal tin foil hat voter. When did we have a GOP majority and GOP whitehouse in any one of these scandals?

Second it is the FBI who is investigating the wiki DNC leaks not homeland security.

Please put down the DailyKos and stop clicking the "you have to read this" emails from your 'friends.'

The U.S. is in the shape it is in because we allow people like 7:42 vote. People who get their info from pop ups on their computer. People who have a lot to say but know little about what they want to talk about.
This is one thing that people cannot blame on the lack of education in Ms. It is a country wide problem.

7:27 pm Please let us know how you know Trump's IQ?

Ah, 7:42 - Because I can read.

Here; I'll getcha started. You're on your own after this: A moron has an IQ level between 51 and 70. You know, sort of like yours. You sit there and regurgitate talking points you harvested from Huffington Post, late-night-show comedians and emails forwarded to you by other morons. Trump doesn’t do that. It follows, therefore, that he is not a moron.

Why not just indict everyone who had a contract with MDOC? No one got a contract without Epps and McCrory being paid.

How come no lawyers have been tied to the Epps scandal? Wait, never mind. I forgot - They're all members of the church.

Take a good look at John Colette he is a democrat and he is by Epp's side every time. A theory but so close that Colette was making plea's for people they get sent to Walnut Grove and wow you got the money you walk. I almost got proof they just got caught to soon.

Is this all there is or will there be more indictments? Perhaps Epps' minions at MDOC ?
