I wonder if they are going to illegally close the Courthouses tomorrow like they did list week.

Ever watch the Peanuts specials on TV when you were a kid? Ever wonder what the deal was with the teacher that sounded like a french horn?

I thought Archie was conducting a filibuster. I really wanted to see that because I have never seen a filibuster in a county meeting. What happened? Did I miss it? Damn.

I agree with Archie on one thing, We are all in a "bad situation".

Ole Kenny Wayne is just sitting there drinking coffee and collecting a big check watching Hinds County go to hell, no skin off his nose. Life is good.

if the city offices are closed then that was grounds for the meeting to continue on and be virtual. He overtalks everyone. when is the next election?

Chokphuchry's "social determinants" at play here undoubtedly...

No doubt Judge Reeves is now convinced beyond a shadow of a doubt that he should give these clowns yet another chance to get the problems at the jail resolved.

Just watched it. Embarrassing isn’t the right word to describe the incompetence on display

So, at first blush this appears brilliant. Have a meeting on zoom. Whoever runs the meeting can mute the others until he recognizes them. The zoom can be recorded and the public can be allowed to view. Frankly, why ever go back?

Clearly they still need to figure out the finer details.

They need little signs to make motions, second, and vote aye and nay. David Archie is out of business if they figure this out.

Attorney shrugs his shoulders and shakes his head as if to say, WFT am I doing here?

If you watch this without volume, you can hear Sinatra singing Send in the Clowns.

A free circus.

Since nothing is getting done anyway, does it matter who the board president is?

David L. Archie will become president at 12:01 A.M.

David L. Archie will become president at 12:01 A.M.

AND find himself on the losing end of every vote 2-3 going forward. He'll be totally powerless.

10:15……yep and Kenny doesn’t live in hinds county ! No tugging lie.

11:38…..ummmmm sure but have you ever had a conversation with Bobcat ? Box of bricks. All five of them are train wrecks in their own way.

9:47 - why is that action illegal?
9:52 - winning comment of the day; right on target
9:53 - not really a filibuster; just a lot of bluster. Although he appeared to be winning the day, until one of Tyree's boys entered the fray. Hell, David even moved the attorney back to his pew while he was in control of the 'non-meeting'
12:52 - muting would be a good move, whether on Zoom or in person; if 20 pound Kenny would earn his pay, they would have him keep all mics on mute until the President recognized them. Would at least slow down (and quieten down) Archie's antics.
12:35 - true, but the answer to his WTF question is "drawing a big paycheck", trying to match the fees that Espy collects from the circus up north thanks to the move led by Gerald Steen (D-Ridgeland)
2:30 - I doubt it, if nothing else will take moving this to a courtroom, not a board room. Truth is, if this meeting was illegal as Archie kept on telling us, he should be making that argument upstairs on the 4th floor.
2:56 - correct. And that, my friends, is the final word.

4:17, and what's your point? Where is the requirement that a hired employee live in the county? Maybe good politics, but not law. And as the City of Jackson has proven with their residency requirements, not always a good policy.

I don't know what in the cornbread hell is going on in this video, but I'd pay two weeks pay for Public Access Channel Rasta Man to bust up in there and call them all out for being representations of basest level of opposable thumbs known to science.

Looking back over the past 25 years, Rasta Man seems to have been a man with an understanding of the future of the City of Jackson. We all thought he was absolutely nuts and just pure entertainment, but he consistently called out the city leaders as jack-wagons. In hindsight, and given the progression of the failure of the city's infrastructure, the continuing weakening of the status of police power, and blatant ineptitude of city government officials, he was nail meet hammer. Pump the brakes and think about it.

People have to not wonder why Hinds county is in the current state it's in after watching this. What a clown show!! Everyone envolved is a POS!!

Credell has been a crook a long time. David has exposed Calhoun.
Bobcat is stupid and some say he the smarest in his family. Report says he is stealing County gas for his bus and uses the county tractors to make money on the side.

Anonymous said...

8:12…no point. Just pointing it out. And the report about Bobcat using his county issued card isn’t really fair without mentioning the other five. Lol.

Nice investigative reporting, @9:03. You must have been trained at the Barksdale school of reporting with Mississippi Today.

"Report says" someone is a crook (forget the part about being stupid, that's a matter of opinion and hard to document) is hardly a reasonable comment, even on this blog site.

If he is stealing gas and using county equipment, provide the proof. I'm sure Shad White would be glad to deal with this once you pony up with some documentation. And - if its true, then I'm sure Archie would like to have the details as well, so that he could use it to get rid of the third vote.

Not much difference than saying that Calhoun is a crook, but the broader statement would certainly get you at least a B+ on the Barksdale exam. Why not tell us what he is doing as well - is it stealing gas also? Does Graham use county gas in BOTH of his county issued vehicles, or is he legit from your research?

Inquiring minds want to know, and since you have such good inside knowledge we would appreciate your sharing.

Anonymous said...

Graham has two issued vehicles ? It’s bad enough that they all got brand new f150’s …… wait, do there assistants also have new trucks and a card ?

It’s awesome to watch a battle of wits between unarmed opponents. True democracy in action. Or inaction actually. Apparently no one who voted these jackasses into office ever watches this clown show. Or maybe they do and this is the desired outcome. Scary.

Trollfest '09

Trollfest '07 was such a success that Jackson Jambalaya will once again host Trollfest '09. Catch this great event which will leave NE Jackson & Fondren in flames. Othor Cain and his band, The Black Power Structure headline the night while Sonjay Poontang returns for an encore performance. Former Frank Melton bodyguard Marcus Wright makes his premier appearance at Trollfest singing "I'm a Sweet Transvestite" from "The Rocky Horror Picture Show." Kamikaze will sing his new hit, “How I sold out to da Man.” Robbie Bell again performs: “Mamas, don't let your babies grow up to be Bells” and “Any friend of Ed Peters is a friend of mine”. After the show, Ms. Bell will autograph copies of her mug shot photos. In a salute to “Dancing with the Stars”, Ms. Bell and Hinds County District Attorney Robert Smith will dance the Wango Tango.

Wrestling returns, except this time it will be a Battle Royal with Othor Cain, Ben Allen, Kim Wade, Haley Fisackerly, Alan Lange, and “Big Cat” Donna Ladd all in the ring at the same time. The Battle Royal will be in a steel cage, no time limit, no referee, and the losers must leave town. Marshand Crisler will be the honorary referee (as it gives him a title without actually having to do anything).


Meet KIM Waaaaaade at the Entergy Tent. For five pesos, Kim will sell you a chance to win a deed to a crack house on Ridgeway Street stuffed in the Howard Industries pinata. Don't worry if the pinata is beaten to shreds, as Mr. Wade has Jose, Emmanuel, and Carlos, all illegal immigrants, available as replacements for the it. Upon leaving the Entergy tent, fig leaves will be available in case Entergy literally takes everything you have as part of its Trollfest ticket price adjustment charge.

Donna Ladd of The Jackson Free Press will give several classes on learning how to write. Smearing, writing without factchecking, and reporting only one side of a story will be covered. A donation to pay their taxes will be accepted and she will be signing copies of their former federal tax liens. Ms. Ladd will give a dramatic reading of her two award-winning essays (They received The Jackson Free Press "Best Of" awards.) "Why everything is always about me" and "Why I cover murders better than anyone else in Jackson".

In the spirit of helping those who are less fortunate, Trollfest '09 adopts a cause for which a portion of the proceeds and donations will be donated: Keeping Frank Melton in his home. The “Keep Frank Melton From Being Homeless” booth will sell chances for five dollars to pin the tail on the jackass. John Reeves has graciously volunteered to be the jackass for this honorable excursion into saving Frank's ass. What's an ass between two friends after all? If Mr. Reeves is unable to um, perform, Speaker Billy McCoy has also volunteered as when the word “jackass” was mentioned he immediately ran as fast as he could to sign up.


In order to help clean up the legal profession, Adam Kilgore of the Mississippi Bar will be giving away free, round-trip plane tickets to the North Pole where they keep their bar complaint forms (which are NOT available online). If you don't want to go to the North Pole, you can enjoy Brant Brantley's (of the Mississippi Commission on Judicial Performance) free guided tours of the quicksand field over by High Street where all complaints against judges disappear. If for some reason you are unable to control yourself, never fear; Judge Houston Patton will operate his jail where no lawyers are needed or allowed as you just sit there for minutes... hours.... months...years until he decides he is tired of you sitting in his jail. Do not think Judge Patton is a bad judge however as he plans to serve free Mad Dog 20/20 to all inmates.

Trollfest '09 is a pet-friendly event as well. Feel free to bring your dog with you and do not worry if your pet gets hungry, as employees of the Jackson Zoo will be on hand to provide some of their animals as food when it gets to be feeding time for your little loved one.

Relax at the Fox News Tent. Since there are only three blonde reporters in Jackson (being blonde is a requirement for working at Fox News), Megan and Kathryn from WAPT and Wendy from WLBT will be on loan to Fox. To gain admittance to the VIP section, bring either your Republican Party ID card or a Rebel Flag. Bringing both and a torn-up Obama yard sign will entitle you to free drinks served by Megan, Wendy, and Kathryn. Get your tickets now. Since this is an event for trolls, no ID is required. Just bring the hate. Bring the family, Trollfest '09 is for EVERYONE!!!

This is definitely a Beaver production.

Dr. Heddy Matthias and Lori Gregory will face off in the undercard dueling with dangling participles and other um, devices. Robbie Bell will perform Her two latest songs: My Best Friends are in the Media and Mama's, Don't Let Your Babies Grow up to be George Bell. Sid Salter of The Clarion-Ledger will host "Pin the Tail on the Trial Lawyer", sponsored by State Farm.

There will be a hugging booth where in exchange for your young son, Frank Melton will give you a loooong hug.
