I would have commented earlier, but I was watching the full tape you 'click baited' me into watching.
This tape was 81 minutes long. It was at 54 minutes on the tape that you even mentioned Phil Bryant. For slow learners, that was 66% elapsed time in the tape before you got around to the subject of this thread on your blog. Or one-third of the time remaining for the folks in Pearl.
This is click bait at it's finest! I've never listened to you on a tape before and was flat-ass appalled at the number of times you asked the State Auditor a question and as soon as he attempted to answer, you cut him off and attempted to opine as to your own answer to your question.
You own the microphone, but time and time again, I wish he had said, "Let me answer your question!"
I'm sorry I didn't ask questions in the order you think I should have. Next time you say jump, I will ask how high, master. Or, you don't have to watch or listen to it, now do you?
Cuz Pheel appointed me
Shad, it wasn't just people "on the left" who thought/think Phil Bryant had a lot of stink on him from the TANF scandal.
That scandal pissed off just about everyone.
4:51PM You are so right! We've all known that all along!
Shame on you. You’re the worst kind of “interviewer”. Ignorant. Unwilling to hear answers.
Hey 4:18, sorry you fell for KF's clickbait. (Instead of falling for his headline, I chose not to waste my time listening to the podcast, recognizing that Shad is a regular advertiser on the site and gets plenty of free posts whenever he goes out and finds a few thousand dollars has been misspent by some county official.)
We all knew the answer to KF's headline - why Shad didn't accuse his appointer or his mentor (remember, Shad ran Phil's reelection campaign before moving up the ladder to being the decider of all that is important to the state, via his proclamations). It was because he had to protect his former boss. But not only why he didn't include him in his investigation, or in his self-ego book, written at public expense but sold for his own profitable and political benefit (other than taking after his other mentor, the 'Donald', the question that should have been asked is why he never went to the US Attorney at the time, and released a PR announcement immediately when he learned the US Attorney had been told of the crimes by one of the criminals herself.
We all know the story - Shad is a wannabe, and he sees his flight up the ladder by not addressing any of the problems that include those that may help him, or could hurt him if they were turned against him. That's why the only elected state official he is willing to point fingers at is the one state official who is more inept at her job than he is at his. (Miss Lynn, don't get your feelings hurt of get tears on your red dress when you read this.)
Stop your incessant f'ing whining and START YOUR OWN competing media property you TOTAL LOSER.
Hey everyone! Just an update.
Traveled back through JAN today and it’s the same. I am happy to report the airport is still terrible, and one of the elevators in the parking garage is STILL broke. Luckily they have TWO people working the exit at parking, so although there are ZERO lines, they are continuing to waste money on having two parking attendants on the clock.
However, the lane on the far right side of the exit still won’t provide you a receipt.
All is well upon my return to this Utopian society of n Jackson.
Even if you could audit Jackson the case would fall into the hands of some indecisive federal judge who would be making a protracted mess of it.
I'm not a fan of lil' Shad at all.
But at least he's better than Lynn (new furniture) Fitch and the RINO (fainting) Dilbert.
Plus, Shad is not trying to come across as a folksy Hoss Cartwright character like "the hat".
How can anyone with a brain knows that Phil controlled where the funds went. His appointee wouldn’t go to the restroom without having to check with Phil. Nancy (is she ever going to jail) was his wife’s best friend. Brain damaged Brett didn’t know where the money was coming from.
As expected, Kingfish's retort to 4:18 was exactly as usual and, as always, is accompanied by his anon 'get your own show' post. Rather than answering as a smart aleck, why not watch your own vid and refute the post?
Agree with 8:45 on his assessment of Brett who didn't give a rat's ass about where the money came from.
6:12 for today's win!
At least Phil didn't take $50,000 in a brown paper bag from Aldi.
Well said. Was a huge fan of Shad when he came on the scene, but he decided to go to the dark side because he wanted to live in Mississippi and raise his family. At this point, he's just digging his hole deeper and deeper into predictable obscurity. Everybody knows Phil Bryant and you were in cahoots Shad....but now you think you can keep a straigth face about it? Your anger is a dead giveaway.
Brett et al knew the money was "free" coming from Mississippi connections. Full stop. Didn't matter who. But, they are the guilty ones, not Brett. He's a dirtbag for a whole host of other reasons.
Democrats, please keep the “finds a few thousand dollars has been misspent by some county official” comments coming. We also enjoy and pass on the “small fish,” “low hanging fruit” comments when Shad arrests another criminal. And when you defend the judge briber that helps the other leftist billionaire prop up MS Today with your “it was just a mistake with only a few words” comments? Icing on the cake!
Comments like these in addition to the Defund and Abolish the Police scam, your burning and looting, your obstruction of law enforcement officers, your pro-criminal judges, etc., etc., etc. just gives us more factual education to teach our children that Democrats are the party of lawlessness; and that the only thing Democrats love more than crime, are the criminals that commit them.
Please, keep ‘em coming! You make it extremely easy.
wow , shad did a good job of interviewing KF.
but,,,,, isn't it supposed to be the other way around?
Keep up good work KF. You will be acquired by FOX news with this type of "unbiased" reporting with "hardball" questions and follow up for one of your advertisers.
As dumb as you are, I'm not surprised you thought that. Never done it. Never will. Don't need to. I'm perfectly capable of saying that under my own screen name. I don't need to be anonymous to put you in your place. 10-12K people a day read this site. Guess what? Some of them actually like it, and some actually like it enough to defend it. I know that is hard for you to fathom but oh well. Now if I was going to say it, I would have said "get your own _______ng blog.
KF does come off as a fellow who loves the sound of his own voice........and knows he's the smartest guy in the room. lol.
"thinks" he is the smartest guy in the room is more accurate
It amazes me that you've not gotten that Mississippi is in a recession.
You don't seem to understand that the GOP takes Mississippi for granted. They know our rednecks and Kluxxers will vote against their own best economic interests because they are terrified that payback for years of corruption and racism would be hell.
Sadly, some of us don't know that the current GOP is the former white democrats. For a long time after the Civil War, all folks of color belonged to the " party of Mr. Lincoln". It's not about party policy...it's about fear of being out -numbered and paid back.
The GOP ain't the party of Ronald Reagan or Bill Buckley anymore and worse , has zero class and taste.
Great interview setting -- lighting, equipment -- on point!
10:59am
Demwits have used the line: "vote against their own economic interests" to bs middle class conservatives about being opposed to "tax the rich more" since Obama, since Jackson Free Press. In fact it's a dead giveaway that Donna Ladd or one of her urban guerrilla cat lady socialists wrote the comment.
Lmao. I'd like to see the peanut gallery try to start it's own blog. I doubt they'd even pull Polo numbers.
You're actually going to posit that the party of neoliberals has Mississippians best economic interests at heart? After the great sucking sound of the 90s?
I call them Tax And Spend More Democrats.
October 6, 2025 at 10:59 AM, tell us where the kluxxers can be found. I can't wait to read this.
When someone goes into angry-denial-mode and rants irrationally, you might as well vote guilty.
Since the death of Gallo, KFish is the unrefuted, uncontested leader of the 'Shutup, I'm Talking' media giants.
To all you numb nuts out there complaining about the Fish: Want some cheese with that whine?
Phil Bryant and Shad White worked for the same company..... friend you do the math here
