We have not confirmed a rumor that Jackson's water pressure is now rising due to floodwater getting in...

Jackson can not exist without a state of emergency in place for something. At this point I’m only concerned when there is no declared emergency because it likely indicates that baby choke is in cover-up mode.

Mike drop!
Quick wit and true!

The flood water is probably cleaner than what’s coming out of the taps.

What a perfect example of a race huckster and charlatan this clown is!

Y’all go to his Wikipedia page and check the edit history. They are really struggling to post any accomplishments. There was an edit a few months ago by a well meaning supporter. Someone tried to add information about the Real Time Crime Center as an accomplishment. It was removed by an insider because the mere mention of that failed experiment is considered an embarrassing insult to the Lumumba administration.

I certainly hope this doesn’t delay the water problem, which I am sure he is about to resolve. I am tired of driving to Madison county to get potable water.

Yep.

And not even enough water pressure to flush boo boo down the drain at the JSU Tiger's practice facilities.

This boy Mair's "emergency declaration" is only a quick attempt to get a little sound bite on MSNBC & CNN tonight.

Antar declared an emergency also for Richard's Garbage Contract. They still haven't been paid. Because he is all smoke and talk.

Does this mean the 52,000 gallons of dooky water is now diluted for users downstream to drink? I’m still waiting on one of the attorneys that comment to begin a class action suit against the city. Or am I thinking that cannot be done? I’m not an attorney so don’t jump all over me for my lack of legal knowledge.

It is always an emergency in Jackson.
If it rains it is an emergency.
If it don't rain it is an emergency.
If it is hot it is an emergency.
If it is cold it is an emergency.

Chockwe says send money fast! The more zeros the better.

It would make more sense to issue a public notice when there is NO EMERGENCY.

The Ross Barnett Reservoir pool elevation went up 8 inches in the last 24 hours to 298.0. IF it goes up another 2 feet to 300.0 really really bad things are going to happen. Can anyone imagine Chowke in the same position as Dale Danks back in 1979 and 1983?

Remain calm! All is well!

So people call you a f***ing joke and you post it, but any reference to the mayor's infamous "Big Payback" speech is rejected.

6:56 for the win.
Well done.

"Can anyone imagine Chowke in the same position as Dale Danks back in 1979 and 1983 ?"

Nope.

Antar couldn't EVWEN come close.
It's not even a discussion.

Danks was the last Mayor that actually gave a shit about the city.

Polluting the Pearl downstream of Jackson with massive raw sewage discharges isn't an emergency.

Anonymous said...

So, the owners of Gold Coast Commodities, Rebel High Velocity get severely fined by the government and May see jail time, along with the truck parts company owner in Flowood that told his employee to empty the cleaning fluids in the slough behind the business on 80, BUT…the mayor has emptied 52,000 gallons of sewage into the Pearl, cannot operate the Water Treatment Plant as required and is pushing for an illegal Garbage contract and The MDEQ, EPA and environmental groups have remained silent. Do you know how this mayor has affected other towns drinking water south of the city that get their water from the Pearl? If I were a mayor of any of those cities in Mississippi or Louisiana I would have a lawsuit pending.

People on Chokwe's Plantation - Sing it with me...

come on, people. it was 52 MILLION gallons of literal shit water dumped into the creeks that feed into the Pearl. not 52 thousand. big damn difference.

Now JPS schools forest hill and Jim hill are going to remote learning due to low water pressure
I’ve decided that JPS is the biggest drain of Jackson tax payers. Scammers not educators

"Emergency" is Jackson's default setting. Chowke will let us know when that changes, right?

Anonymous said...

This emergency is a welcome distraction for Chowke from all of the other emergencies that have existed for months.

It will be on his To Do list after he's elected back into office.

E-mayor-gency.

The good news is that due to the heavy rain and flooding, Jackson's thugs are hunkered down in their section 8 abodes and not doing their usual drive-by shootings.

Anonymous said...

@6:39 PM Seriously? @7:20 AM is correct. 52,000 gallons of sewage is what comes out of Chowke's mouth at every presser.

Anonymous said...

7:45, I saw that on the news. They boldly announced no class today due to flood waters but also students may pickup breakfast this morning and return later for free lunch pick up as well.

So...its safe to come get the food.

But they cannot allow students to endanger themselves just for some learnin'.

Is there any one in any agency that has the guts to stand up to a person who dumps 52 million gallons of shit water into our rivers? How about the people who live down stream from Jackson? Have they developed a taste for sewer water?

It's all Protein, Right? said...

That water downstream is not too bad once you spit out the corn kernels and condoms.

Can’t the mayah just veto the flood waters???

Maybe chock-a-loc should install a Yazoo pump.

When the skies open up and flood a shithole how can that be an emergency?

Forgive me for making the 52,000 gallon reference. I made a typo and stand corrected. My point is, if it’s 52,000 or 52 million no one is holding him a point able because be is black and the other business owners I mentioned are white. We have a bunch of spineless state agencies that are scared of this criminal. How much do we really know about all of this? Is he setting up RD to go broke and get a payoff from WM? Is his life in danger? We know that organized crime is prevalent in the waste business so I’m beginning to wonder what hand he is playing? Again, I meant to reference 52 million but the white boys didn’t dump that much and they are in deep trouble. Can you say discrimination?

@4:39 PM - Sir, you are forgiven. I agree, follow the money.

Trollfest '09

Trollfest '07 was such a success that Jackson Jambalaya will once again host Trollfest '09. Catch this great event which will leave NE Jackson & Fondren in flames. Othor Cain and his band, The Black Power Structure headline the night while Sonjay Poontang returns for an encore performance. Former Frank Melton bodyguard Marcus Wright makes his premier appearance at Trollfest singing "I'm a Sweet Transvestite" from "The Rocky Horror Picture Show." Kamikaze will sing his new hit, “How I sold out to da Man.” Robbie Bell again performs: “Mamas, don't let your babies grow up to be Bells” and “Any friend of Ed Peters is a friend of mine”. After the show, Ms. Bell will autograph copies of her mug shot photos. In a salute to “Dancing with the Stars”, Ms. Bell and Hinds County District Attorney Robert Smith will dance the Wango Tango.

Wrestling returns, except this time it will be a Battle Royal with Othor Cain, Ben Allen, Kim Wade, Haley Fisackerly, Alan Lange, and “Big Cat” Donna Ladd all in the ring at the same time. The Battle Royal will be in a steel cage, no time limit, no referee, and the losers must leave town. Marshand Crisler will be the honorary referee (as it gives him a title without actually having to do anything).


Meet KIM Waaaaaade at the Entergy Tent. For five pesos, Kim will sell you a chance to win a deed to a crack house on Ridgeway Street stuffed in the Howard Industries pinata. Don't worry if the pinata is beaten to shreds, as Mr. Wade has Jose, Emmanuel, and Carlos, all illegal immigrants, available as replacements for the it. Upon leaving the Entergy tent, fig leaves will be available in case Entergy literally takes everything you have as part of its Trollfest ticket price adjustment charge.

Donna Ladd of The Jackson Free Press will give several classes on learning how to write. Smearing, writing without factchecking, and reporting only one side of a story will be covered. A donation to pay their taxes will be accepted and she will be signing copies of their former federal tax liens. Ms. Ladd will give a dramatic reading of her two award-winning essays (They received The Jackson Free Press "Best Of" awards.) "Why everything is always about me" and "Why I cover murders better than anyone else in Jackson".

In the spirit of helping those who are less fortunate, Trollfest '09 adopts a cause for which a portion of the proceeds and donations will be donated: Keeping Frank Melton in his home. The “Keep Frank Melton From Being Homeless” booth will sell chances for five dollars to pin the tail on the jackass. John Reeves has graciously volunteered to be the jackass for this honorable excursion into saving Frank's ass. What's an ass between two friends after all? If Mr. Reeves is unable to um, perform, Speaker Billy McCoy has also volunteered as when the word “jackass” was mentioned he immediately ran as fast as he could to sign up.


In order to help clean up the legal profession, Adam Kilgore of the Mississippi Bar will be giving away free, round-trip plane tickets to the North Pole where they keep their bar complaint forms (which are NOT available online). If you don't want to go to the North Pole, you can enjoy Brant Brantley's (of the Mississippi Commission on Judicial Performance) free guided tours of the quicksand field over by High Street where all complaints against judges disappear. If for some reason you are unable to control yourself, never fear; Judge Houston Patton will operate his jail where no lawyers are needed or allowed as you just sit there for minutes... hours.... months...years until he decides he is tired of you sitting in his jail. Do not think Judge Patton is a bad judge however as he plans to serve free Mad Dog 20/20 to all inmates.

Trollfest '09 is a pet-friendly event as well. Feel free to bring your dog with you and do not worry if your pet gets hungry, as employees of the Jackson Zoo will be on hand to provide some of their animals as food when it gets to be feeding time for your little loved one.

Relax at the Fox News Tent. Since there are only three blonde reporters in Jackson (being blonde is a requirement for working at Fox News), Megan and Kathryn from WAPT and Wendy from WLBT will be on loan to Fox. To gain admittance to the VIP section, bring either your Republican Party ID card or a Rebel Flag. Bringing both and a torn-up Obama yard sign will entitle you to free drinks served by Megan, Wendy, and Kathryn. Get your tickets now. Since this is an event for trolls, no ID is required. Just bring the hate. Bring the family, Trollfest '09 is for EVERYONE!!!

This is definitely a Beaver production.
