Jackson Jambalaya

If you notice Lumumba avoids NE Jackson Fondren and Belhaven. He always chooses south west Jackson this time at least it’s hanging moss area
That’s a better educated voter base than what he usually chooses. Derrick will be up there spewing white hate I’m certain

What a group. They are headed to the federal feeding trough! Woo Wee!

You really would expect the mayor to attend his town’s infrastructure forum, but he’s probably at some convention at some upscale resort.

I'm glad that the environment and the climate will also be getting justice.

In related news, local stores have run out of "race cards" to sell to race-baiters.

I'm sure they all know calculate chlorine demand in pounds per day.

Wonder if a clear glass pitcher of water drawn from the building tap will be on the tables for the speakers.

You could put everything that group knows about water problems in Jackson in a thimble and still have plenty of room. These are race baiters. It has nothing to do with water but a lot to do with blaming the white man.

Why did they wait until now to start holding meetings? Oh yeah, no money involved before now. These people have no shame.

Such a diverse and inclusive panel of speakers!

Made-for-TV show because they don't remotely have the votes in the Legislature.

I'm curious why the Title VI Complaint doesn't include the City of Jackson in it. After all, it is Jackson's water system, and it is Jackson who failed to maintain it and allowed it to crash.

Flint 2.0

KaChing.

It's also election time. Another reminder that the people YOU vote for are never accountable. It's the people those "other folks" vote for who are responsible for everything.

Anything that will provide a means for Jackson residents to shop and spend all of their time in Jackson I'm all for.

I live in Jackson, once again I have very little water, and I was interested in attending this event until I read the flier. Now I see that this isn’t intended for me and I would probably feel out of place if I went. This isn’t about managing our water system for reliable service. This is about a money grab. The money will roll in and be immediately stolen and nothing will improve except the lifestyle of a few of the usual hustlers. In other words… “the usual”.

Four grifters-

College Game Day coming to JSU though this weekend...Good right?

Tate should graciously bow out of this cluster. He just say I wish you the best and I am standing by in case there’s anything the city needs from the state that the state normally does for other water systems….which of course is nothing.

Any future requests for state help should not be acknowledged unless it also comes with a Lumumba resignation.

Will anyone mention the Siemens fiasco and the WSBA’s continuing inability to send accurate bills to all customers?

Will waders be issued at the door?

What the hell is ‘climate justice’?

The Babylon Bee Dictionary states: “1. Climate Justice – The act of living in mud huts and eating bugs until the cancer of humanity is extinguished and Mother Gaia can live on. Also, any tax can be considered climate justice.” 2. A Trillion Dollars in the Accounts of Friends of Bennie and Antar.

4:12 I googled it after I stopped laughing. It’s a new “movement; after all, climate change “can exacerbate inequitable social conditions.” F*cking A.

Just another day in Jackson. Yes Chokwe did talk @ the state now paying their water bills. I would dare say INVESTIGATE all areas of Jackson who did Not receive WATER BILL OR WHI DID NOT PAY! The disparity is for the Taxpayer WHO CONTINUED TO PAY THEIR FAIR SHARE. RIght? Since Chokwe can take care of the COJ why did the Feds , state & out of state have to come to the aid of the COJ? Right?

This is the job you take when your not qualified for anything else in life… and your able to use your race card on a daily or hourly basis

Held in Hanging Moss area. Not so likely for his honor to get carjacked so close to home. Also he should be better able to stop at the Shell Station to score some junk on his way home after the gathering.

A bunch of people complaining. Q&A session was long, and plenty of people asked questions. Just like y'all could have.

My son lives in NE Jackson. Came home about an hour before the “Town Hall” was due to start, only to find the storm drains belching out milky water, flooding the streets. They have no water currently. Perhaps the esteemed TH panel addressed the issue, but I doubt it…and I doubt they ever will. I told him to drill a well.

What street is your son on in NE jackson

How can the majority population in Jackson claim to be the minority? Shouldn’t the question be whether the black population of Jackson is being treated any differently than the white population? I would say the white population didn’t have drinking water either. Couldn’t flush their toilets either. This is not a matter of disproportionate treatment of blacks - it is a matter of complete incompetence of city leadership affecting all citizens of Jackson, regardless of their race. COJ leadership should be held accountable and the feds should be looking at the use of the federal funds loaned and or granted to the City. Not just today but the last 20 years, beginning with Harvey Johnson.

I would much rather attend a townhall with Kanye West and Candace Owen!

East end of Northside…Wild Valley, and side streets.

I have two huge problems with this event:

1. EPA is supposed to regulate pollution, not civil rights. EPA's critical function will be undermined by its attempts to do someone else's job.

2. Government meetings should not be taking place in a church. This dangerous for both the church and the government.

The ends never justify the means. Somebody needs to tell this child-mayor "no."

"This is dangerous for both the church and the government."

Are you really that naive 12:21 ?
