Mayor Holds Weekly Briefing

 Jackson Mayor Chokwe Antar Lumumba is holding his weekly press conference right now.  It is streamed below.


 

* Mayor Lumumba provided an update on the "Stop Trashing Jackson" campaign. 

*  The Mayor said "I got" the $600 million in federal aid for Jackson's water system with "no assistance from anyone at this table."  

* Claims of compromised information were addressed.  The Mayor said "We are the water department.  We already have your information."  He said people interested in water bill relief "need to apply."  Money provided for water bill relief was provided in the Cares Act.  

* A reporter asked why the annual audit was delayed.  It was due in July.  He blamed the delay not on Jackson employees but instead "kicking the can down the road." 

* Mayor Lumumba lied again about the 1% Commission.  He said the majority of the members are "appointed by state leadership."  The Mayor knows full good and well the Mayor and Chamber of Commerce appoint all but three of the members - 70%.  

* A reporter asked about Fedex pulling out of the 39204 zip code.  He said it would be "fruitful" if Fedex spoke to his administration.

Lil Choke's arrogant presentationl and dogmatic marxist, race mongerong lies, ever shadowed by his utter incompetence, always imply his 11,000 voters are freeloading dependency peasants hungry for more free shit, whilst those who deny them are colonists condemning runaway slaves to an apartheid gulag, which apartheid he does actually favor as a New Afrika collectivism.

Thankfully, I can read a synopsis of his words elsewhere without the insulting experience of corrupting my life with his voice.

“Make everybody suspicious because he’s lying Lumumba,” Councilman Stokes said. “Why is his hand in this? Why is his family member hands in this? Anytime it’s money he shows up like a buzzard. Fresh meat, fresh meat on the line.”

It would be "fruitful" if Fed Ex spoke to his administration. What the F#^* for? Is he going to try and hoodwink Fed Ex? It's not like they dont know what's going on. This guy, mayor of an almost bankrupt defunct city, really thinks he is going to get Fed Ex, an international profitable company, to change their decision making. Based upon what? Promises that he'll convince the residents in that area to be nice and do better? Or does "fruitful" mean he'll provide extra help for a little shakedown? This guy is beyond laughable.

"Fruitful" if a couple Brinks' guards with full auto machine pistols hung out the doors of delivery vans?

Nasty national publicity trashes the poser mayor. Suck it up, slut.

Labumbla and FedEx will have a summit. FedEx will refuse to budge. Labumbla takes it to the national MSM asserting racism.

And then Labumbla takes credit for Jackson 's newest tourist attraction: FedEx Caves.

Chuck was going to offer them “protection.” For a fee, of course.

Anonymous said...

2:53 he has no intent of selling FedEx on anything.
He intends to threaten them with every racist moniker and rally he can.

THAT...is why he wants to speak to FedEx.

Its way past time for action if there was ever any to speak of.

(And speaking is his favorite thing)

Lyin' Lumumba is at it again!

It is his weekly preening.

When do the mayors of Madison, Ridgeland, Clinton, Gluckstadt, Flowood, Pearl, Brandon, and Bryam have their weekly pressers?

What! They don’t have press “briefings?”

What are they hiding? Could be their smooth streets, low crime, and dependable water and sewer are distracting their desperate citizens from the real truth that only Baby Chock can understand given his superior education and training.

So tired of his woe is me, victim mentality rhetoric. He sounds like a spoiled child that praises himself and blames everything else on others.

KF, so how is it that there was a question on March 1st as to whether or not Lumumba was even appointed to the 1% Commission given the abstentions?
And, you seem to think he controls the Chamber of Commerce as well...how has that happened?
Specifically?
Seem to remember Bryant's appointments talking about delays in information for the entire Commission.

Fedex shows Lumumba to be, at the least, ineffective in securing the city for business, so he flails and offers 'fruit' to avoid national humiliation? Any discussions with weasel worded mayor should only be through Fedex's lawyers.

This POS “manages” the city into oblivion, gets bailed out by sheer luck, and then has the gall to take credit for it like it’s a good thing. Fuck him.

Dude spends some time and $$$ on the hair and beard that is for sure.

The mayor should stop looking for racism and start looking for solutions.

Per the news clip from Millsaps town hall, Ted is confident his plan will roll through.

I guess I don't understand why Ted is not donating his time for free since he seems to think people of means should freely help the poor.

He glibly pointed out the wealthy have a duty to pay for water for all.

He seems pretty wealthy.

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.
