Jackson Jambalaya

Lumumba acts with disregard and impunity. He'll never get help for Jackson from the Legislature who will not reward double-dealing slime balls.

Now wait a minute. Isn't there an exception in the law that exempts Marxists from filing these reports?

And not a damn thing will be done about it. I will bet money that he will not be held accountable.

And the people of Jackson let this idiot have another term in office.

Donner, so much for all your talk about holding elected officials accountable.

You've been barfing up the same "deep, challenging reporting on anyone" garbage for how long now?

Donna Ladd is a fraud and a lazy reporter.

Perhaps he was armed with the wrong information on the filing deadline.

The only way Lumumba will influence the Legislature is to play the race card, a tactic he's well familiar with. Basically, his line is that the Legislature is mostly white and they don't want to help out a black mayor of a black city.

The real reason is that the Legislature doesn't trust the Lumumba administration to be accountable for the millions he would request. I think we all realize that. So in order to provide it, they will demand someone oversee the city leadership.

Regardless, the pushback will be (according to Antar) purely motivated by race.

Wonder who's account that 60ml Siemens settlement is sitting in. Capital city news agencies certainly aren't asking.

Why would Antard disclose all the ill-gotten campaign funds that will convert to his retirement funds when there’s no penalty for not doing so? Obviously the voters don’t care.

Does this surprise anyone?

It appears there is only a $50 a day penalty for not filing a campaign finance report on time (beginning 10 days after the due date). The mayor ignores much more significant requirements than those set by the Mississippi Ethics Commission.

Sometime I think the Mayor looks at everything lets say differently. Like he is a contestant on Shark Tank and the sharks are the state government.

He walks into the tank and ask for a Zillion dollars based on his idea of how to make Jackson better. He explains the needs and how it will improve everything in Jackson. Goes into great detail how all the citizens will enjoy the new subway system, the new water lines, the rapid rail line to the airport, the new underground utilities, free internet and cable for all of Jackson. Lets not forget the massive new 100 acre community garden for free food (something gonna hav ta go).

The sharks (gov) are impressed however when they challenge him on his ability to work with others to make it happen, the timeline, quality of contractors he folds.Ideas no solutions. As they say in Texas all hat no land.

Brandon, MS. Alderman at Large race candidate Eric Fox put zero dollars down on his financial report even though he has signs up, paid for Facebook ads, did 2 mailers, has some weird campaign wrap on an RV....did I miss anything?

Normally one of the local media outlets will post the CFR's. However, none did so this year.

JFP and Barksdale Today only examine and report on the finance reports of white Republicans.

You would think with all of the local "attorneys" (and I use that term loosely) that contribute to his campaign and always comment and like stuff involving him on Facebook, you would think they would look at stuff like this and advise him on what to do. He looks like the other crazy democrat lady who refuses to file hers. Lumumba, like Vicki Slater, no one respects or takes seriously.

"And the people of Jackson let this idiot have another term in office." Is this actually a surprise to you?

It's really fun to see who has donated to whom. Can't wait to see the fools that donated to the LaMumba campaign.

Why should this little fellow concern himself with rules and regulations ?

I laughed when he exited his election night bunker.

The lil' man was doing "fist pumps" and babbling something about his record of transparency and dignity for the people.

??

But whatever the citizens of Jackson want . . .

No, the idiots of Jackson let this idiot have another term in office

Can't let it be know Soros has bought this useful idiot.....

THere wasn't one filed last year either. $50 per day.....

Ken Wilson was the right guy for the job. It doesn’t surprise me one but he was the only one to release the requested documents. His heart is in the right place, and that is what Jackson really needs. It’s a shame these uneducated clowns don’t care about their city. I can’t wait to get out of this third world circus.
