Promises to take on "Good Old Boys Club"
State Auditor Shad White announced he is running for Governor of Mississippi this morning.
"Now more than ever, we need elected leaders who will follow President Trump's lead," said White. "I've fought corruption in both political parties, partnered with ICE to keep dangerous illegals off the street, and have always stood for the America First agenda."
As Governor, White pledged to use his exhaustive audits of state government to cut wasteful contracts, sweetheart deals, and the fat from state government.
"Mississippi families are getting squeezed at the grocery store, for their car tags, and every time the property tax bill shows up," said White. "Meanwhile the insiders are getting richer and richer. We're going to take the money they've wasted and give it back to the people who earned it. We will cut your grocery tax, cut the car tax, and freeze your property taxes. Our families need relief, and when I'm Governor, they're going to get it."
In a video posted on ShadWhite.com, White said, “We will ship illegal immigrants to the states who say they want them. I’ll make sure our tax dollars are used to teach and not brainwash our kids. We will make our laws on violent criminals and politicians who steal our money the toughest in the nation. We will ban China from controlling our farmland. In short, we will make a Mississippi that is prosperous, where our kids have an opportunity to stay and build a life here when they get older.”
White is a husband and father of three young children. White also serves as a Captain in the Mississippi National Guard and recently returned from a deployment in the Middle East as part of Operation Epic Fury. In the most recent campaign finance reports in the race for Governor, White led all potential challengers with nearly $4 million in campaign cash.
“This campaign isn't bankrolled by the good-old-boys," said White. "It's powered by working families who are tired of getting ripped off and ready for a Governor who will fight for them. That's why we're going to win."

Sounds like another right-wing extremist platform. No thanks!
Going all in as a Trump sycophant the week after the 2026 midterms will be answer 1 to the “what ever happened the Shad White” question in 2035.
The little fella is consistent.
Hi Donna K. I'm voting for Shad.
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Of course he did!
Shad is reminding me more and more of Ray Mabus. All sizzle and no meat.
He said he doesn't want illegal immigrants to drain our medical and educational resources, he doesn't want property taxes to increase, he said he wants kids educated and not indocutrinated. If that is "right wing extremist" then sign me up.
He will learn the hard way that going after Brett Favre will cost him!
What else does he have though?
'I have the best whistleblowers, even if one of them gave me my job'
Had to bring up Trump?
In a weak-governor state, Shad is going to spend a good portion of four years stamping his little foot and holding his breath. If he even wins.
Yeah, okay. But no Gunnplay and no Dimbert, thank you very much.
More blue collar Americans are figuring out that tax cuts don't move the needle on affordability for them, but underfunding government hurts them in concrete ways.
Decaying roads that raise insurance bills, public schools being drained to fund failing charters and soon failing private schools, and crushing medical expenses all impose costs that are 1-2 orders of magnitude bigger than any tax cut for a working person.
Folks are seeing that this corporate Club for Growth agenda is key jangling by bought and paid for politicians to preserve a broken system built by and for rich people.
Shadster for the win.
Lessee... A bunch of MSGOPers fighting among themselves for about 1/2 of the CHS voters by trying to outMAGA each other. All the Dems need to do is get behind one person and it's Gubner STOKES! hats for everybody! Well, maybe not THAT person, but...
Shad is actually a Catholic.
Hilarious
this guy will never go after his boss and the ultimate good ole boy Pheel Bryant
If folks like Delbert and McDaniel have not taught us that not getting along with anybody is counterproductive....Now we have a governor-would-be who thinks that way.
Always read your droppings with great amusement. Only wish there were more online lawns in Mississippi where you could make a deposit without having to crap on JJ's all the time.
I'll trust you that your post has something, anything to do with his announcement. I guess I can try to figure it out later. But won't bother.
Gib me da Hat!!
how doe multi-term elected officials get away with boogey-man terming everyone "good ole boys"? who exactly is he referring to? he was APPOINTED by phil bryant... king of GOB's. can someone PLEASE ask him who he means?
I would vote Shad this afternoon, especially if he can make a play for Black Democrat votes more effectively than The Hat. I find Andy Gipson's persona and style repugnant, but Shad White may be too shy to attract Black votes or to get the GOP base out. The Democrat/Commie machine may put $5M, IMO, into this race to flip MS. Can Shad or The Hat match that?
He means "It takes on to know one!" although he can't really say that yet.
Shad White wants to be governor, but apparently he can't even put together a Twitter profile without making sure everybody knows he's a Trump guy. Mississippi needs a governor, not another politician whose entire personality is kissing Trump's ass. If you've got to lean on somebody in Washington to sell yourself to the people of Mississippi, maybe you've got a lot less to offer than you think.
If folks like Delbert and McDaniel have not taught us that not getting along with anybody is counterproductive....Now we have a governor-would-be who thinks that way.
So he’s going after Phil Bryant?
What crime did Bryant commit?
We didn't need to hear it twice.
I thought I would support White for governor, but this Twitter post changed my mind. Being a Trump supporter and bragging about fighting in Iran are turn-offs.
Is this a Mississippi GOP policy that candidates have go all TRUMP TRUMP TRUMP? It’s a very bad strategy. A losing strategy.
Gipson, Watson, Tindell is going to be the best trio in MS government history. A new generation of leaders that actually have goals and want to move Mississippi up instead of just thinking “I’m cool cause I’m important and in charge” like Tater Tot and Pheel and Gunn and Fitch. Losers!!
They are going to run that miserable loser Brandon Presley again so we have got to have a strong GOP candidate. It cannot be Shad.
Shad is the fraud!
Good old boys club? Nobody is more a product of that club than him. Handed a state office on a silver platter despite no experience. He hasn't done a bad job, but come on man.
