They will never stop... what's wrong with these people?

Looks like Rukia still hasn't got the message that Wingate doesn't give a f--k about her and her merry group of loud mouths.

Not that he would do it but, I will make the first contribution to his campaign if his honor ever considers becoming Jackson's mayor.

What is wrong with these people is they want free water and sewage for themselves.

Go wingate go. What a scam these two have the brother screws up services and the sister sues for lack of services. A Real dream team

Guess what Rukia… I am a citizen of the city of Jackson and you certainly don’t represent me or my neighbors. Of course you probably would use the race card against our neighborhood and unlike your ass we do pay our taxes. You were defeated go away

Grifting ain’t cheap. We need to get paid!

This is one time where Wingate’s dilatory nature may actually be favorable and helpful.

Judge Wingate isn’t a Fifth Circuit Judge. He’s a district court judge. One would think this “people’s advocacy” group would know the difference.

The good news is that the Judge has a clear picture of these organizations as well as what the majority of Jacksonians think (from the request for comments from the public and the different court appearances). He's a smart Judge.

Henifin, I would think, has this same clear picture now.

What a waste of paper and time.

Maybe they should stop being poor and get jobs?

Seems Rukia didn’t read or have anyone read to to her dilutional cronies the comments that were overwhelmingly supportive of JXN water and not the city. She’s a moron of the highest degree. Rukia is a spoiled brat and that’s being kind!

At the core of these people's so-called "grassroots organizations" is the proposition that the government does not represent the interest of the "people" and that the "people" must organize to be heard. They then claim to be the "people's voice". Ironically when they elect/select themselves to be the government they still must find someone to complain about. If not Wingate it would be someone else. Ignore them.

Rukia et al, pay your taxes and ESAD.

Publicly available federal court proceedings aren’t exactly “closed door negotiations” but okay sista

It doesn't matter how many acronyms you collect on your side -- the answer is still "NO".

Let her and her group run EVERYTHING.

Stop sending state or federal money.

Let’s see how that works out.

She’s a goddamn racist and it’s quite disgusting.

“Closed door negotiations” - Ha! The Chowke cartel knows all about them, right?

👏

They are mad since they can’t pull out that race card to use against Judge Wingate.

The corrupt mayor of Dolton Village, Illinois was in Flowood late last year. Wonder if they were comparing notes.

Didn't Wingate already smack those people down last summer?

Four more years of these grifters and Jackson, will pretty well be picked clean
Personal opine, ov course

I moved from the Jackson area to Long Beach 6 years ago and believe it or not we have similar issues with small groups of people trying to dictate for the masses.
Some people just don't understand that just because you are the loudest doesn't mean that you represent the majority.
Some things never change

Imagine these charlatans being required to prove that they actually represent poor people, or any people other than themselves. Stay strong, Judge! Don’t let the fraudsters waste our repair money.

Our mayor is a joke. The only way to get a meeting with him is to donate to his campaign.

Dear Judge Wingate, please use your discretion to sit on this until hell freezes over. Yours truly, a longtime Jacksonian who has had a belly full of the Lying Lumumba Fraud & Grift Circus.

Uh, Ms Lumumba, Jackson residents are already parties to the SWD legal proceeding and are being represented by the people they elected to represent them, i.e. the Mayor and the City Council. They are not and should not be represented by your or your organizations who they did NOT elect or choose to represent them in this matter. Nor do you or your organizations have any experience or expertise in running a water or sewer system, so you bring nothing to the table that would be helpful to the situation. When negotiating this agreement with the feds, your brother and the City Council could have asked that a citizen or citizens be appointed to or made a party in this matter for purposes of whatever you speak, but yet they did not do so and cannot do so after the fact. It boggles my mind that, when the system was failing under the leadership of your brother and his administration and that of prior Mayors and administration, you didn't boycott, protest, or demand to be involved. But now that the system is being run properly, now you demand to be involved. Stay out of the way and let the experts do their job, which they are in fact doing quite well right now and much better that the City itself was doing for many years.
