Well, well, well, John Caldwell is tired of the bullshit and will not run for re-election as Northern Mississippi Transportation Commissioner. The Commish announced on his podcast:
When it's time, you'll know. Well, I know it's time. I have a little over a year left on the second of two consecutive terms as your transportation commissioner. It's been a great tour of duty, but it's coming to a close. It has been an and is an honor and a privilege to serve the people of the great state of Mississippi and especially the northern 33 counties. It's been a special honor to serve with Commissioners King, Busby, and Simmons. Hopefully, we'll get more done in the final months and the year ahead as we continue the good work that's been started. So, thank you.....
If you're not having fun, you're doing it wrong. Well, I'm still having fun, but it's still time to pass the torch. So, thanks for the opportunity. Thanks for helping get more done, and thanks for a good final year that we're expecting to have in 2027. So, thanks again. Good luck to whoever steps out and puts their name in the hat to step into this wonderful position.
The ever-mercurial Commissioner was prone to outbursts and tantrums at Commissioner meetings lately. He repeatedly screamed "bullshit" and "shut up" at the other Commissioners and Executive Director Brad White at the most recent meeting.
Kingfish note: So did the Commissioner get tired of his own bullshit?

To spend more time with family?
The section about the Governor’s race is probably the most revealing of the entire podcast. Someone who has absolutely no interest in running for governor generally doesn’t spend that much time explaining how he would differentiate himself as a gubernatorial candidate, including what issues he would champion, and then wrap it in “nah, just kidding.” That feels much more like a trial balloon than a random joke.
Sounds like an unprofessional clown. Can't imagine if i said that to the owners of the company I worked for. You work for the people
Don’t blame him !
Brandon Presley should just move in and act like he's reclaiming his old position. Most people won't know the difference. Just put re-elect on the signs.
He doesn't possess the demeanor.
Well now his rude, obnoxious, a-hole behavior makes sense.
He was an auditioning for a Trump endorsement for governor.
Convenient. Hosemann and Watson’s team will have Robert Foster in this race asap.
Good. Now we can replace him with some mealy-mouthed “go along to get along” back-slapper.
Senator Chuck Younger for Northern District Transportation Commissioner!

All three of those useless positions need to be abolished.
