In Jackson, Mississippi, Some Residents Have Been Without Water For 2 Weeks | The ReidOut | MSNBC
Isn’t Mississippi a red state?
But Jackson is a blue city in that red state.
@Jeffrey Loveless nope. Jackson is the Capitol of Ms. Very Very Red
Mississippi just re-elected Hyde Clyde Smith for Senator. Who said she would be front row at a lynching.
Maybe next time people will get out and vote for people that care and stop saying that voting doesn’t matter. They are paying the price for being politically lazy
Or mass GQP voter repression steals elections. Happens all the time in dozens of elections, and has for decades.
No one is shocked, it’s a red state.
Blue city in a red state. Fixed it for you.
Repub run states turned areas of the developed US into an undeveloped hellhole.
According to republicans, I guess Mississippi could be characterized as a “s*** state.” 🤔🙄
At least the dem city this story is about.
@Tod Brown Doesn’t change the fact that Mississippi is the poorest state in the country with 19.7% of the population living below the poverty line. republican leadership for the win!
So sorry. I am in Texas and know what they are going through. Hopefully it will be fixed very soon.
Good thing ted cruz wont be there
MISSISSIPPI a RED STATE!!!
Wonder how this happened???
I cry for you Jackson.
2 billion for humans to have water? Na build more stadiums for no reason
“Goodbye, ” that’s all she wrote.
Aww man I know I need to to bed now ,for that hearing
If the water was turned off in the predominantly white neighborhood for part of the day the water pressure in the other neighborhoods will increase.
‘It’s 82% Black. Who cares’!
Repuglicans.
This is a travesty.
wtf
Richest country in the world and we can’t provide drinking water to people.
