As predicted Mississippi is getting that work for Mother Nature

The water crisis in Jackson, Mississippi, has gotten so bad, the city temporarily ran out of bottled water to give to residents

 
It’s time for the federal government to step in because the state of Mississippi don’t give a fuck about Jackson.

No.

Let their Ass suffer.

Mississippi is one of the states screaming about the Big Lie, They hate Big Government, Against expanding the Affordable Care Act, Refused to spend any money on infrastructure and banned abortion.

And that state fully supports the Orange Idiot.

They want Federal help, then start making changes or call Mr. Billionaire Trump to help them since they think he is their true POTUS.

But…..as we all know, the Democrats will go above and beyond the Call of Duty and send all the Federal Aid they need.

Democrats need to grow a spine and take advantage of shit like this and use it to their benefit.

Mississippi is on some BS but its too many black people in Jackson to not care. This is another Flint again. What in the fuck are they trying to prepare us for?
:oops: Doesn't J-town have a population of mostly "us" there?

Yeah….and so what?

The state is controlled by the GOP.

Any federal government money sent there goes directly to the state government. The state government decides where it goes.

So take a wild guess who will get what’s left after the majority of the funds is used to take care of you know who?

That warm water is like rocket fuel for those storms.

The Midwest and South is already drenched and bombarded with water.

It’s gonna be a interesting weekend…
 
Jackson mayor urges residents to 'get out now' as Mississippi braces for river flooding after record rainfall

Chokwe Antar Lumumba said it's possible for 100 to 150 homes to be affected in floods from the Pearl River.


Not sure if you cats realize this.

But this story is similar to what happened with Hurricane Katrina/New Orleans.

After the flooding, they rounded up Black folks in New Orleans and bussed them out of state far away from New Orleans.

When the water cleared, they basically made it impossible for Black folks to return to reclaim their homes/properties.

Lots of Black folks eventually gave up and just made the decision to stay where they were or go somewhere else.

“Extreme Gentrification”….you won’t leave on your own, we will flush you out.

They got their eyes on other major Black dominated cities in the South.

The Crown Jewel is Atlanta, GA. They have had their eyes on reclaiming that city ever since Maynard Jackson had become Mayor.

They eventually will get it. Right now it’s not if…but when.

And if Black folks are United enough to hold what they got.

We will wait and see.
 
Jackson State's Deion Sanders says team is in 'crisis mode' amid Mississippi floods

Jackson State is scheduled to open the school's season at home on Sunday

Mississippi is in a state of emergency after heavy rains have caused severe flooding.

With the rain washing away the state, the Jackson State University football team is now having trouble gearing up for its season opener at home on Sunday against Florida A&M.

The flood waters caused issues at a water treatment plant and many in the city do not have access to clean water — including the football team.

The team's head coach — Hall of Famer Deion Sanders — took to Instagram to share the problems his team is facing.

"We don't have any water. Water means we don't have air conditioning. We can't use toilets. We don't have water, therefore we don't have ice. That pretty much places a burden on the program. Right now, we're operating in crisis mode."

Jackson elaborated further, as he tries to find proper living situations for his players.

"I gotta get these kids off campus, the ones that live on campus, and the ones that live in the city of Jackson into a hotel to accommodate them so they can shower properly and just take care of their needs. Make sure all our kids are fed. Make sure our kids have all the necessities of life for the next several days until this crisis resides."

Up to 180,000 Jackson residents are set to receive drinking and non-drinking water for an unknown period of time that will be distributed by the Mississippi Emergency Management Agency. The National Guard is also being called in to help

The Red Cross opened a temporary shelter at the Jackson Police Department Training Academy.

For those who think it’s all Biden’s fault……

Jackson, Mississippi Has No Safe Tap Water for the Foreseeable Future. It's a Crisis Decades in the Making

…Jackson has struggled with safe water access for decades and has lacked the funding to implement change. Mayors and city council members have called for repairs since the 1940s, the Jackson Clarion-Ledger reported. In the 1970s and again in 2020, the EPA warned that the city had to get serious about updating its infrastructure to improve water quality. The 2020 report highlighted lead pipes, faulty monitoring equipment and insufficient staffing. Years of neglect have built up and in 2021 alone, the city had dozens of boil-water notices due to the old, fragile water system.….

Jackson’s new worry: More water pressure could break pipes

By EMILY WAGSTER PETTUS and KEVIN McGILL

Water pressure slowly improved in Mississippi’s capital city Friday but officials outlined numerous challenges and occasional setbacks as they worked to restore running water from the city’s aging, neglected water system to all in the city of 150,000.

A minor leak in an ammonia tank forced officials to cordon off a part of a water treatment plant late Thursday, Jim Craig, a state health official said Friday. Staffers at the plant are having to constantly account for changes in sediment and chemical levels in water taken into the system after recent torrential rains and flooding, Craig added.

“It’s like fixing the airplane while you’re still flying,” Craig said at a Friday evening news conference with Gov. Tate Reeves.

Mayor Chokwe Antar Lumumba noted at one news conference that, once pressure is restored, there are worries about the strain on aging, brittle pipes.

And even when water is running again, it’s unclear when it will be drinkable.

Last week’s rains, followed by flooding of the Pearl River, exacerbated long-standing problems at the O.B. Curtis treatment plant, leading to a drop in pressure throughout Jackson, where residents were already under a month-old boil-water order due to poor water quality.

The problems led to a Monday emergency declaration by the Republican governor and a disaster declaration from President Joe Biden. Biden’s infrastructure coordinator, Mitch Landrieu, and Federal Emergency Management Agency administrator Deanne Criswell were in Jackson for a firsthand look at the problem Friday.

“This is a true testament to President Biden’s commitment,” Criswell said at an evening news conference with Reeves and other state officials. She toured the main water treatment plant earlier in the day with Reeves.

“Many are now experiencing normal pressure. Areas further from the plant and at higher elevations may still be experiencing low to no pressure,” the city said Friday morning.

But, among the setbacks: pressure dropped a bit at one point as treatment plant staffers had to deal with chemical imbalances in the water, Craig said Friday evening.

It’s all a continuing strain on residents, like 64-year-old Mary Gaines, a resident at a complex for senior citizens and people with disabilities.

“It’s a very nice place to live. We just ain’t got no water,” Gaines said. “And most senior citizens ain’t got no car, so we have to get water wherever we can.”

At his news conference Friday, the Republican governor repeatedly stressed what he called a unified state, federal and local response to the crisis, discounting any suggestion of a rift with the mayor or president, both Democrats.

He thanked Criswell and Landrieu for the help and noted that Biden had “quickly signed” a disaster declaration. Lumumba had not been invited to a Reeves news conference Monday as the crisis was unfolding and he was not at the Friday news conference. But he appeared with Reeves earlier in the day during a water plant tour and was part of a Thursday news conference.

Reeves didn’t address and hasn’t commented on remarks Biden made to reporters at the White House late Thursday.

“We’ve offered every single thing available to Mississippi. The governor has to act,” Biden told reporters. “There’s money to deal with this problem. We’ve given them EPA. We’ve given them everything there is to offer.”

White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre declined to elaborate on Biden’s remarks Friday. She confirmed that Biden and Reeves haven’t spoken to each other about the crisis, but downplayed the lack of a call, saying it was “not necessary to further any progress in this situation.”

Statewide, there is about $75 million specifically for water resources available through a bipartisan infrastructure law signed by Biden last year, Jean-Pierre said.

Biden was asked Friday whether he would visit Mississippi and said he had no plans to. Biden said he has been talking to people in Mississippi including Lumumba.

Residents in Jackson have long struggled with a faulty water system before the latest crisis.

The National Guard has been called to help with water distribution. The state emergency agency said close to 2.8 million bottles of water were handed out from midday Thursday to Friday afternoon. Non-potable water, for toilet flushing and other uses, was also being offered to people who brought their own containers to some sites.

The entire city had been without water or with low pressure at one point. Figures on how many homes and businesses had service restore were not available.
 
No.

Let their Ass suffer.

Them folks you talking about didn’t own shit in New Orleans. Most of them didn’t go back because their new lives were so much better. They got free housing , jobs, job training , free clothing , etc so why would you go back? Most have never lived without the crime rates that NO had.

And that type of thinking is why Trump got in office in the first place.

Democrats have been doing the “We Take The High Road, When They Take The Low Road” BS for the past 50 years.

You play hardball with Mississippi, you play hardball with the whole state.

If Black folks suffer, that should motivate their Ass to do something instead of whining and complaining expecting somebody to tell somebody to do something.

Let the whole state suffer, including MAGA.

That right there is the reason Mississippi is in the situation they are in.

They are so acclimated in the piss poor living conditions they are under, they have no idea they are being screwed until they get outside of that environment.

What you pointed out, why couldn’t those folks do that in New Orleans when they were there?

What was keeping them from accomplishing what they accomplished in their new environment that they couldn’t do in New Orleans?

The answer is simple, once out of that crappy environment their eyes opened up and realized they been fucking themselves.

That is the true definition of “Woke”.
