Jackson Jambalaya

Thompson is a piece of shit racist.

He is nothing more than a Hinds County thug filling his pockets up, while acting like something he is not: Intelligent.

Hates white people.

"Democrats are for border security"

That's hilarious.

DACA is NOT a law.

Two Words. TERM LIMITS!

Wrong, Sid! Thompson is NOT in a position to negotiate. He may be in a 'position', but he has no skills other than supervising the frying of catfish, posturing for more and continued entitlement programs in the Mississippi Delta and mouthing this comical 'we in charge' mantra. He could not 'negotiate' his way out of Medgar Evers Airport without telling him, "Sir, that's your flight".

If this 'negotiation' were a game of checkers, Thompson could not move two pieces off the front row without asking Pelosi and Schumer to tell him what to do next.

Thompson is as disgusting and nasty as his dumbcrap colleagues.

I have wanted better border security and immigration reform since before 9?11.

All our borders need improve security, not just our southern one.

I'm FOR a combination of effective barriers, effective scrutiny of goods and persons entering and improved surveillance and response time.

Tens of billions of tax dollars have been spent wasted since 9/11 on political "spoils" and that is especially true in the past 2 years.

READ instead of letting someone else feed you political garbage.

We should all demand that Rep Thompson clean up this mess and offer a specific plan of action that doesn't allow Homeland Security or INS or the Border Patrol or any other agency to play politics with our national security.

I'd support a law that made it treasonous to knowingly misrepresent the effectiveness ,quality of services , value and quality of equipment and materials, and competence of personnel in contracts on contracts that affect our national security and defense.

Bennie is absolutely for negotiations. Ongoing negotiations. Ongoing and ongoing and ongoing. At least until a Democrat is back in the White House. Then they might even build a wall. But it'll cost a lot more than 5 billion dollars. In the meantime Bennie's constituency of poor and displaced people continues to grow. A true win-win for the party outside the White House.

The public I believe just has not had the matter of border security presented to them properly. I mean if there is a breech or crack in border security, oh lets say like PRIOR TO 911, wouldn't or shouldn't we all be concerned with putting into place safeguards to prevent another 911-like catastrophe? People we didn't see it coming. Isn't there a lesson here to be learned? We've alerted the entire world now that we are slack or lacking in border security. "Hey here is your opportunity terrorists to enter our country". Why take a chance people? This is a different world today. Despite personal failings, Trump is a Patriot. I'm sorry if you don't see it that way. Leaders (Trump/Congress) are required to protect and safeguard our Union. Another 911, airborne virus, drugs, WOMD, smuggled through our remote borders will be on the Democrats heads.

Bennie has held that Congressional seat since 1993. I would like for him to list three things he has accomplished in all those years that benefit the residents of the district.

I don't believe he can.

I support President Trump on building the wall 100%.

Aren't Benny and Jim Hood members of the same party ?

A stunning moment yesterday before congress... the nation's intel chiefs -- one after another -- publicly contradicting President Trump on global threats from North Korea to ISIS to Iran.

Why did the GOP caucus appoint Congressman Guest to serve on the House Homeland Security Committee? It seems unusual to have two members from a small state serve on the same committee.

I'm just glad all of the local restaurants that seem to have kitchen staff full of Hispanics are following immigration laws. Especially that popular Chinese restaurant with the grocery store.

I'm also glad all of the meat packing plants, construction companies, and lawn care and roadside clean up contractors are following the law as well.

And I'm very glad that our elected officials in the State legislature only take campaign contributions from companies who only hire legal immigrants.

Because as long as everyone is following the law that wall is going to work perfectly.

The party of ‘fiscal responsibility’ just can’t wait to dish out more government contracts for questionable stuff. Heaven forbid we get some solid information on this wall. What was released via FOIA requests was pretty damning.

You people that keep on referencing 9/11 don’t seem to have the slightest clue as to the extent of the financial rape that took place afterwards. They don’t care about your security. They want to rape and pillage the treasury.

Build the wall!

9:11 The true issue on the southern border has to do with the poor and unwanted people who take advantage of our need for cheap labor and complacent attitudes about security. Over the the years both parties have made use of these people for their own selfish purposes without regard for the consequences of uncontrolled migration. Concern with terrorists is a good political red herring but means little or nothing to the politicians. Especially wags like Thompson and Trump. If terrorists were determined they might find the Canadian border or our industrial ports an easier entry than the Mexican border. (From Vancouver to Windsor you could fly the Hindenburg over America with a hydrogen bomb strapped to it, or strap it to your bicycle) But we love Canada and they wouldn't do that.

Their racial makeup and the fact that these people bring desperate needs and little or no skills to the table makes them undesireable as permanent residents except for bosses like Thompson who love more dependents no matter what they do to the economy. Trump knows there's enough cheap labor already here, and he has no use for any more of these latino types anyway but even he recognizes the political correctness of "securing our borders from terrorists". It makes good headlines. Like the "War on Drugs". Terrorists and drug dealers laugh.

9:18, I'd go for two listed programs, other than beer and chicken/fried cat fish at re-election. A complete fraud taking advantage of his District he has convinced that Whites want to take over.

Bennie is to Mississippi as Kenny is to jackson. Please have a stroke and die you fucking asshole.

While I am not a Bennie Thompson fan, Donald Trump is an even bigger embarrassment. There is no crisis at the southern border. The crisis is that Trump promised his mindless base a beautiful wall that Mexico would pay for. That, of course, was one of many Trump lies. In addition, a wall is not needed to stop drugs or terrorists, because drugs and terrorists do not enter the country at open borders. They enter at airports and legal ports of entry. Trump’s own administration and the intelligence community have confirmed all of these facts. The notion that all Democrats are for “open borders” is another Trump lie. In fact, for many years the a Democrats in Congress have voted for billions of dollars for border security, including some barriers. If a security expert with no political agenda recommends additional barriers in particularly vulnerable areas, I would support funding that if it were coupled with more funding for personnel, monitoring, detection, etc. Otherwise we should spend our tax dollars on real needs like infrastructure, the military, access to college, and health care. And we should get rid of Trump and Pence In 2020.

Caucasians residing in Bennie’s congressional district are the most under-represented Americans in the entire country.

My Lord these guys and gals still support Trump, this helps to prove we will stay in last place.

12:05 I agree with you that Trump is an embarrassment and at least a liar. But I disagree that there is no crisis at the southern border. In fact there has been a crisis for many years and through administrations, both Republican and Democrat. To allow millions, yes millions, of desperate people into a country without knowledge of their intentions, their health status, or their ability to earn a living is a crisis. That is, unless you have unlimited funds and resources. I suppose we can just continue on the present path until we find out if our resources are truly unlimited. When that time comes we can declare a CRISIS. Right?

12:05 Read more, post less, then your posts might actually approach becoming reasonable.

I'm a Bennie Thompson fan. He is a racist dope, but at least he is not a Marxist racist dope. When Bennie retires Baby Chok will take his place. Then we will have Baby Chok and Ocasio-Cortez in the House.

Then again, if Bennie can live 12 more years, it becomes a moot point since AOC says the world will end in 2031.

The next president (Harris) is going to have some serious cleaning up to do.

This is Ann Coulter's war, until she called him out, it wasn't even on his agenda the last 2 years. He could care less. He hires them illegals too.

@12:44

I will listen with an open mind to your suggestion as to whom we should support. Please support your recommendation with the reasons we should support them. Now I'll hang up and listen.

12:36 Wrong. Black people living in Thompson's district are the most under-represented Americans. The Caucasians have plenty of others representing their interests. Black people no.

It’s hard to believe how many “Republicans” want congress to write a blank check to the Cheeto in charge without even having an informal plan on what the money will be used for. What happened to the party? What happened to Mexico paying for it?

#Trumptarded

@12:49 there is no data to support your claim that millions of illegal aliens are crossing the Southern border. In fact, there are no statistics re illegal crossings, so the Department of Homeland Security uses border apprehensions to assess trends. The number of apprehensions
at the Southern border has decreased from 1.64 million in 2000 to 396,579 in 2018 or a decrease of 76%. Don’t let Trump’s lies make a liar out of you. Stick to the facts. There is no crisis and no need to spend $5.7 billion on a wall.

I've been to his office in Washington. The two flags outside his office are Alcorn and Tougaloo. No State flag No American flag. He is indeed a POS militant racist mfr. He also had a field rep in Bolton you all remember that didn't pay his taxes for years.

12:44: I voted against Trump in November, 2016. I never liked him. Yet I am intellectually honest enough to admit Trump is doing a very good job. Trump is certainly a better President than Obama, Clinton or the Bushes.

I don't care for the guy, but I will admit the obvious.

Since he's been Congressman, I'd venture to guess 100,000 people have left the 2nd district. Tough break for people in counties that border the 2nd and need to be pulled in to his district because it's shrinking.

Wrong 1:32. The African Americans of Uncle Bennie's district are over represented by him and plenty of others representing their interests. Have you seen CNN, MSNBC or read The New York Times lately. Nothing but bellowing and crying about their interests.

In 1993 Benny Thompson went to Washington...he didn't have two nickels to rub together as my granpappy used to say. His district was the poorest in the nation. Cut to today, one change. Benny is worth millions and his district, still one of if not the poorest in the nation.

@2:34, what proof do you have that Thompson is worth millions?

@2:16, it is oxymoronic for a Trump supporter to tout intellectual honesty.

Why is Trump's Sec. Of Homeland Security afarid to testify before Congressman Thompson and his committee? What do they have to hide?

@ 11.42

ShaZaMM!

@ 1205 just goes to show you what f*&king fools Dim-O-Krats are....

The only platform Dim-O-Krats have is spending other peoples money ( I won't insult drunk'n sailors, because they know when they're out of money) to buy the votes of the dregs of society.

@4:14 as evidenced by your post, you obviously are an intellectual wonder. Wish I could think and write like you. You must spend a fortune on crayons.

1:32...I will kiss your ass on the courthouse lawn if you can name one thing the 'black people' in Thompson's district have or ARE asking for that he has not delivered.

Under-represented? That's a laugh. He has delivered to the black population exactly what they want and exactly why they have reelected him a dozen times - continued entitlements, no mandate for job readiness, no job-search requirement in order to receive benefits, a guarantee of perpetual democrat plantation mentality and a large fish fry every couple of years with free beer.

I'll concede that 3:21 knows all about writing moronic posts. I have reservations about the "oxy" part.

5:08 Black people in his district have asked for full funding (at least under MAEP)for public education, additional funding for higher and vocational education and training, medicaid expansion (as other states have done), equitable funding for rural health care, better health care facilities, expansion of child support services, full restoration of voting rights for persons who have completed felony sentences, equitable sentencing reform, economic development in his district to provide good paying jobs and a state flag we don't have to be ashamed of. Just for starters. Pucker up buttercup!

The crap you name was not the result of any of Bennie's efforts. His district remains the poorest in the nation, like when he took office. The Caucasians in the district had most of the money and they still have most of the money. Bennie gets elected because the Black population was so beaten down and abused by the white minority for a few hundred years that they will not trust anything remotely resembling the racist. They'd rather suffer under Bennie.

@ 4:28, just putting it into terms that you and your Jackson educated failures can comprehend.

Apparently you haven't bothered notice the glaring errors coming out of city hall and the Clarion Liar that you LibTurds so strongly advocate.

Shut up sh*t for brains you'll prove the whole description of Dim-O-Krats.

Thompson is a useless idiot.

I get on here just to see all the prejudice, keyboard warriors rage.


I thought the border security was going to be paid in pesos? Asking for a friend.

Drove by the construction of the new Burger King store on Queen Mary's prize street in Madison. Total Hispanic crew doing that work.

8:56 - There you go with your racist BS. Let me know when you have proof of ONE industrial development initiative Thompson has brought to his district in 26 years. And don't count grant money for all the community action agencies where the directors drive Mercedes and BMWs.

The things you list are all either entitlements or closely related to entitlements. Did you even realize that? With these exceptions: 'The people' of District 2 don't give a whit about fully funding MAEP. Other than a handful of teachers up there who think they would benefit, 'the people' don't even know what it means. 'Sentencing reform and restoration of voting rights'? The only ones who want that are black folk who want their convicted, felonious relatives to help keep electing people like Thompson.

You made up that entire list based on your liberal political and social leanings.

"The Caucasians had most of the money and still do." Whose fault is that? Black folk, Negroes as Kim Wade calls them, African Americans - are the only group that ever inhabited the delta who still comfortably reside in a state of liberal, Democrat-based plantation existence. Prove me wrong.

The groups that pulled themselves up through struggle, discrimination, hard times and mistreatment and denial of rights in that region and became self-sufficient contributors include: Jews, Italians, Chinese, Syrians, Sicilians, Mexicans, Lebanese, Germans and Native Americans. Why are blacks the ONLY group to still wallow in entitlement and victimization? Bennie is one reason for that.

Gerrymandering us usually a bitch. Unless you're entitled and like the plantation.

Trump is making it so easy, before you know it, its going to be President Harris...

If Congressman Thompson hates White people, who can blame him given the haters on this blog.

Other than Stokes, Thompson is the Biggest Disappointment representing the state of Mississippi! Vote DEM out!!!

5:30 - 'You People' used to call white people racist. When that stopped working, you started calling white people 'deniers of rights'. When that couldn't be supported you resorted to 'haters'. At the end of the day, what you find disagreement with is 'realists', those who can clearly visualize and identify a problem.

You don't have that skill. Where were you on the day God passed out that gene? Stop wallowing in the misery of entitlement and victimization and blaming others. Like so many of you, it won't work.

Damn, the hate against Bennie is strong here.

First, I bet none of the commentators here actually live in Bennie's district. It's not possible because the 2nd district still doesn't have internet yet (joke).

Second, There are these things called "elections." If you hate the man soooo much, mobilize some opposition and vote him out. If you don't have the energy for that, then you ought to quit your whining about what you think Bennie is every time his name comes up.

Meanwhile, the President of the United States is having private meetings with Putin and publicly berating the head of our intel agencies, and jeopardizing long-established relations with NATO and other alliances. He's literally compromising our National security, and your simple asses are worried about Bennie.

Tell me we don't live in racist country...!

1:57 Damn, you are impossible. I think 8:56 was answering 5:08 and making the point that Bennie does not give the Black people of his district everything they ask for. For your information, not that it does any good, all Black people do not ask for or want the same things. A racist like yourself cannot understand that Black people like all the other ethnic groups you name, work, play, fight, pay taxes, don't pay taxes, go to school, don't go to school, advance, retreat, be smart, be dumb, live and die just like your sorry ass. There are Negroes, as you or Kim call them, (I'll bet you have another name) who have accomplished far more than you ever will and there are some who haven't. When a Black man becomes president or congressman you certainly don't talk about Blacks as a group accomplishing anything do you? But when you see a Black person in trouble you can say Black people as a group are wallowing in entitlement and victimization. Hey, look around and check out what you are wallowing in!

The trolls are casting the stinky bait and the catfish are biting hard.

I hope Kingfish is collecting that sweet adsense lucre.

Do you live in MS-02 9:23? Do you even know the boundaries of the district?

I sent Bennie a letter stating my support for the President and the wall. The letter I received back was just his reasons why he thinks Trump is out of control. Not that he appreciated or heard anything I stated.

This thread is the poster for how politics has distracted our citizens with nonsense.
Most of you have made this about Bennie vs Trump as personalities, members of a political party and of a racial group.

I would suggest you bother to get actual government facts on immigration via our southern border over the last 2 decades. Get facts on how drugs and human traffickers get into our country. Get facts about the terrain. Get facts about what is and isn't effective and what technology could be helpful and is not in use or inadequately provided. Get facts about infrastructure problems that keep our border patrol from arriving quickly.

The Brookings Institute has done an informative study.

But, that does require you to bother to read enough to know anything relevant about the subject. Better you continue to let talking heads on cable news with high school degrees or degrees that gave them zero expertise on subject tell you what to think. Whatever you do, don't talk to an engineer or security expert who might burst your bubble.
