Hi, this is Alonzo Bowden.

I want to welcome you to episode 371 of my podcast, who's paying attention.

If you hear the air conditioner background, I am sorry, but it hit 113 degrees today in the San Fernando Valley adjacent to Los Angeles. Yes, it is hot.

11 o'clock at night, still 90 degrees. It's Texas hot out here. And I'm going to mention Texas a little later.

But first, I want to talk about Mississippi, because what's going on in Jackson, Mississippi should be criminal.

It should be criminal, but unfortunately it isn't.

Jackson, Mississippi has no water.

They don't have water to drink.

They don't have water to wash.

They don't have water to flush their toilets.

They have no water.

Their infrastructure has been breaking down for years

there was a flood caused by you know that fake global warming which is why it's 113 degrees here and

it's hot wherever you are et cetera et cetera but the point being that they saw this coming and they just didn't care okay you know

what they did care about Republican governor tax cuts Mississippi in April passed a

524 million dollar tax cut, they cut the state income tax, 1% off the top bracket,

eliminated the lower bracket, blah, blah, blah. Tremendous victory. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Okay. Now,

let's look at what they did. They cut the taxes.

They held the state hostage, by the way.

They said that if you didn't cut the taxes, they wouldn't accept the infrastructure money from the Joe Biden's infrastructure law.

But it doesn't matter because this is all too late.

Now, Mississippi says, we don't care about the federal government.
