The Clay Edwards Show

In this powerhouse segment from The Clay Edwards Show, host Clay Edwards sits down with State Rep. Fred Shanks for a no-holds-barred chat on hot Mississippi and national issues. They kick off with the "Kraken" finally unleashing in Fulton County—six years after 2020—with DNI Director Tulsi Gabbard on the ground auditing ballots amid desperate reactions from election officials that scream guilt. Clay and Fred speculate on potential foreign ties (Venezuela? China?) and celebrate the momentum, even floating a bold "Trump 2028" reclaim.   Shifting to local streets, they break down Rep. Shonda Yates' bill to seize vehicles in drag racing busts. As fellow reformed South Jackson car guys, they support hitting organized chaos—like trailer queens flipping on Medgar Evers—while protecting casual enthusiasts from overreach. No more shutting down city blocks for high-stakes bets; it's time for real teeth in enforcement, inspired by JPD and Capitol PD feedback.   Finally, Fred draws from his 30 years as a pharmacist to expose the PBM racket—pharmacy benefit managers owned by big insurers and chains like CVS, clawing back millions and forcing independents to close. They call for transparency and reform to save community lifelines that sponsor Little Leagues, deliver midnight meds, and beat big-box prices. Listeners: Contact your reps to push PBM changes before independents vanish.   Unfiltered insights on accountability, street safety, and small-business survival—straight talk from two Mississippi originals.

In this breaking-news segment from The Clay Edwards Show, host Clay Edwards gleefully dives into Don Lemon's early Friday arrest by federal agents under the FACE Act (dubbed the "KKK Act" with a modern spin) for his role in a church protest in Saint Paul, Minnesota. Clay mocks the former CNN anchor—calling him "Lemonhead"—for allegedly storming a church like the "beaches of Normandy" around MLK Day, charging him with conspiracy to deprive rights while claiming he was just "reporting." Pulling from liberal outlets like Daily Beast (for those "liberal tears") and Fox News, Clay contrasts Lemon's defense with his own take: this wasn't journalism; Lemon was complicit, like an accessory in a bank robbery getaway car.   Tying it to "consequence culture" replacing cancel culture, Clay celebrates the shift—Democrats facing repercussions after years without—and links it to recent events like Alex Preddy's case, urging patience as justice unfolds slowly but surely. He warns against media hype suggesting losses for Trump allies, affirming "we're winning" with mugshots and perp walks ahead for Lemon. The rant pivots to commending everyday black folks for avoiding white liberal protests, avoiding becoming "human sacrifices" to spark another George Floyd-style uprising, as liberals crave racial division to fuel their narratives.   Raw, satirical takes on media bias, accountability, and staying out of the fray—essential listening for fans of unfiltered political commentary.

In this compelling segment from The Clay Edwards Show, host Clay Edwards takes a call from a black listener in Mississippi who shares raw insights into the "paradox" facing black Americans today. The caller explains the ingrained push toward Democratic loyalty—rooted in narratives of Republicans as "racist clan members"—while highlighting how issues like the immigration crisis directly harm black communities by diverting resources to non-citizens. He recounts personal stories from Chicago and California, where schools and aid meant for struggling African Americans are redirected, forcing some to consider desperate measures like posing as immigrants for help.   The discussion dives into the internal conflict: criticizing Democrats feels taboo due to party allegiance, yet Republicans' policies could benefit all Americans. The caller praises the show for addressing these truths and urges prayer for "black America" to wake up, warning of media-driven divisions reminiscent of "Nazi Germany." He notes the backlash faced by figures like Nicki Minaj for supporting Trump and calls for equal enforcement of laws, regardless of race or politics.   Clay commends black communities for avoiding white liberal protests and emphasizes unity against manipulation. A must-listen for unfiltered talk on race, politics, and the immigrant debate—straight from a caller's perspective.

In this focused segment from The Clay Edwards Show, host Clay Edwards tackles the hot-button issue of Jackson State University's push for a new football stadium. JSU is requesting about $40 million from the state for a "big old shiny castle on a hill," but Clay questions whether taxpayers should foot the bill when other schools like Mississippi State and Ole Miss raise their own funds through alumni donations and expansions.   Diving into the numbers, Clay reveals that JSU reported zero dollars in athletic donations for 2022—despite it being their most successful year under Deion Sanders, with sold-out games, national attention, and a SWAC championship. He argues for accountability: if fans and alumni aren't contributing, why should the state? While acknowledging the benefits of relocating from the current off-campus site (which could aid UMMC's expansion into a medical corridor), Clay insists any new stadium must be on-campus for the full college experience, not out in a remote area.   Clay shares honest takes on the surrounding neighborhoods, emphasizing common-sense solutions like fundraisers and master plans to generate revenue rather than relying on public money. Listener texts chime in, highlighting JSU's high FCS attendance but stressing the need for fiscal responsibility—comparing it to Ole Miss and Mississippi State's self-funded projects. Is $40 million worth it, or should JSU tighten the belt and rally its base? Clay calls it straight: without commitment, they might as well play in a high school stadium.   Raw, unfiltered debate on local accountability, HBCU pride, and taxpayer dollars—perfect for fans of no-nonsense Mississippi talk.

Clay breaks down the debate: why JSU fans and alumni report zero donations to athletics despite high-profile seasons, comparisons to self-funded projects at Mississippi State and Ole Miss, and the case for an on-campus venue to enhance the student experience. He questions taxpayer funding without community commitment, suggesting fundraisers and master plans as alternatives.   Shifting gears, Clay discusses a proposed bill by Rep. Shonda Yates to allow law enforcement to seize vehicles involved in street drag racing. As a former street racer himself, he shares personal stories but supports cracking down on organized, dangerous events—like tube-chassis cars flipping on Medgar Evers—while emphasizing the need to protect casual car enthusiasts from overreach.   Breaking news hits mid-show: Don Lemon's arrest under the FACE Act for a church protest in Minnesota, sparking talk of "consequence culture" replacing cancel culture. Clay praises everyday black communities for steering clear of white liberal protests, avoiding manipulation, and features a caller highlighting the "paradox" black Americans face in politics—trapped between party loyalty and issues like immigration draining resources.   The episode wraps with an overnight shooting at a Jackson nightclub and a deep dive with Rep. Fred Shanks on the drag racing bill and PBM reform to protect independent pharmacies from big-chain monopolies, ensuring transparency and community access to affordable meds.   Unfiltered, no-holds-barred talk on politics, local accountability, and cultural shifts—strap in for raw insights and bold takes.

He challenges "positive solutions" from long-time leaders and invites listeners to strap in for unfiltered, no-sugar-added talk radio. Transitioning live from the Men's Health and Women's Wellness of Mississippi studios on 103.9 FM WYAB, Clay introduces himself and guest Jamie Creel, a Shelter Insurance agent.

The segment highlights the need for representatives like Senator McClendon to prioritize constituents over leadership, while expressing prayers for ice storm victims in areas like Tate County and Oxford, where building collapses have caused significant damage.

Clay Edwards delivers a passionate closing rant, urging listeners to reject compromise with Democrats and choose sides in what he frames as a battle between good and evil. He warns against negotiating with "terrorists" over demands for ICE reform, insisting there's no gray area in politics—only right and wrong. Critiquing the outdated notion of "crossing the aisle," Edwards argues Democrats would never reciprocate and calls for unyielding resistance, even suggesting a metaphorical "right cross" instead of bipartisanship. He highlights media efforts to rewrite history, portraying Trump as a Nazi and MAGA as racist, and emphasizes drowning out the noise to focus on core issues like immigration enforcement and election integrity. Edwards points to recent setbacks for Democrats, including revelations about Alex Pretti's aggressive behavior and evidence of 2020 election fraud in Fulton County, declaring it a "bad day to be a Democrat." He condemns Democratic threats, such as prosecuting Trump with the death penalty or arresting ICE agents, and calls out media allies who side against ICE, demanding they pick good over evil. Stressing consequences for law-breaking, he rallies supporters to stay focused amid distractions like Epstein conspiracies, warning that midterm losses could lead to Trump's impeachment or exile. The rant ends with a call to action: tell opponents to "kiss your ass" and recognize the fight's ugliness for a better future.

They critique the removal of ballot initiatives and discuss recent backlash against lawmakers who supported school choice. Edwards and Creel differentiate between cancel culture and "consequence culture," citing examples like a University of Mississippi employee fired for inflammatory comments and nurses losing jobs over extreme political statements on social media.   They delve into the Alex Prady case, debunking portrayals of him as an ideal citizen by sharing video evidence of his aggressive encounters with ICE agents, including assaults and property damage. The hosts argue that carrying a gun at protests requires responsibility and that Prady's actions led to foreseeable consequences. Broader political topics include election fraud allegations in Fulton County, Georgia, and Minnesota's laws allowing non-citizens to obtain driver's licenses that enable voting, skewing results in blue cities.   Edwards touches on personal fitness and mental clarity from lifestyle changes, then pivots to insurance advice, stressing the importance of proper coverage for valuables, renters' policies, and business needs amid volatile rates and storm damage. They highlight affordable life insurance options without exams for those with clean records.   The show wraps with a brief sports segment, picking the Seahawks over the Patriots in a hypothetical matchup due to strong defense, and a passionate rant on resisting Democratic narratives around immigration enforcement, election integrity, and threats to prosecute political figures like Trump. Edwards urges listeners to stay focused on core issues amid distractions.

STATE REP. FRED SHANKS EXPLAINS HIS "NO" VOTE ON SCHOOL CHOICE

FAFO FRIDAY - SCHOOL CHOICE FALLOUT SHOW (Ep #1136)

Hey folks, Clay Edwards here from Save Jackson. For years, since back in 2018, I've been warning about potential corruption and shady dealings involving former Jackson Mayor Chokwe Antar Lumumba. I called him out for what I saw as red flags, but I got labeled a racist, a hater, and worse—just for daring to suggest the so-called "crowned prince of Jackson" wasn't the saint everyone painted him to be. Well, new court documents unsealed this week—and quickly resealed—seem to back up what I've been saying all along. These come from the federal bribery case against Lumumba, former Councilman Aaron Banks, and DA Jody Owens, tied to a downtown hotel deal. Owens filed a motion claiming entrapment, attaching FBI reports from a confidential informant dating back to 2017.   The allegations are explosive, focusing on Lumumba's alleged ties to drug dealers and unreported cash. According to the informant, Lumumba had close relationships with known traffickers, even helping them land city jobs and contracts. One dealer reportedly gave him a truck for his 2017 campaign and was eyeing city deals in return. The docs claim this individual had links to a Mexican drug cartel, laundering money through a Jackson nightclub that Lumumba allegedly visited 2-3 times a week, hanging out in the back room.   It gets worse: The informant says Lumumba once called then-Police Chief James Davis to shut down an investigation into one of these associates after an assault in downtown Jackson. Officers were told to stand down. Then there's the cash—thousands unreported. In one instance, Lumumba allegedly got $30,000 in campaign funds through his brother Hondo that never showed up on reports. Another time, in May 2021, after a late-night card game in Edwards where he played and smoked marijuana with his bodyguard, he walked away with $15,000 in cash from someone who supposedly collected bribes from city contractors.   Remember, Lumumba hasn't been charged on these specific claims yet, and informants can have motives like lighter sentences. But these FBI files paint a picture of deep corruption. The informant was connected to ex-Sheriff Marshand Crisler, who got prison time for bribery and gun charges.   I've been predicting this fallout for years, and now the truth is bubbling up. If you're in Jackson, stay tuned—we deserve better. For more, check SaveJxn on X.

Call Of The Day (01/12/26)

In the third hour, host Clay Edwards welcomes guest Andrew Gasser for a dynamic discussion blending local and national headlines, with a heavy focus on the Minneapolis ICE incident and its cultural ripple effects. They dissect viral comments from NBA coaches Steve Kerr and Doc Rivers, playing clips where Kerr calls the shooting "shameful" and a government cover-up, while Rivers labels it a "straight-up murder" targeting "brown people," prompting Edwards and Gasser to accuse them of misinformation, bias, and outdated 2020-era rhetoric. The conversation ties into broader Minneapolis unrest, including riots over the death of an affluent white liberal lesbian protesting ICE, critiques of media sensationalism, and irony in progressive self-loathing—framed as "Karen fatigue." They pivot to immigration consequences, sharing a story of a detained mother's tragic inability to say goodbye to her cancer-stricken teen son, while emphasizing accountability and rule of law. A caller, introduced as "brother" with a military background, interjects to question societal hypocrisy, noting that while the military enforces strict anti-discrimination policies—barring service members from establishments showing bias—Christian churches in Jackson face unchecked vandalism and robberies without similar outrage, attributing the disparity to liberal agendas and urging consistent energy for all victims.

In a segment addressing local news, host Clay Edwards delved into the arson attack on Beth Israel, Jackson's sole Jewish synagogue, which occurred around 3 AM on a Saturday. The Jackson Fire Department quickly contained and extinguished the blaze, and an arrest was swiftly made through collaborative efforts with JPD, ATF, FBI, and the Joint Terrorism Task Force. Sources, including Jackson Jambalaya, revealed the suspect as a 19-year-old white male from Madison, with the motive tied to antisemitism and religious hatred—potentially influenced by far-right figures like Nick Fuentes or left-wing extremism from Fondren's progressive scene. Edwards highlighted the widespread online coverage and virtuous signaling from politicians, but critiqued Mayor John Horn's statement for diluting the focus by lumping in unrelated oppressed groups like those targeted by racism or homophobia, arguing it unnecessarily expanded beyond the synagogue's plight while ignoring daily black-on-black crime in Jackson.   A caller, identified as "brother," chimed in to provide a comparative perspective, emphasizing hypocrisy in media and societal reactions. He pointed out that Missionary Baptist Churches across Jackson are fortified with bars on windows, cages around air conditioning units and vans, and face constant robberies, even murders of secretaries, yet these incidents rarely garner the "hate crime" outrage or headlines. Drawing from his military background, he questioned why Christian institutions endure such threats without the same "scene" or condemnation, attributing the disparity to a liberal agenda that prioritizes certain narratives over others, like elderly residents imprisoned in their barred homes. Edwards agreed, urging consistent energy for all victims of crime regardless of faith or race.

In a pointed commentary on modern identity politics, white lesbians are depicted as embodying a profound irony: harboring intense disdain for white men and the "patriarchy" they represent, while simultaneously adopting masculine traits, styles, and behaviors in an attempt to emulate them. This paradox manifests in aggressive rhetoric against male privilege and traditional gender roles, yet many "butch" or gender-nonconforming white lesbians sport short haircuts, wear men's clothing, and assert dominance in ways that mirror stereotypical male bravado—often without the accountability or "punch in the mouth" lessons that temper real men. Drawing from recent events like the Minneapolis ICE incident, where a vocal lesbian couple's confrontation escalated tragically, the narrative highlights self-loathing projected outward: they "hate us because they ain't us," striving to reject femininity while craving the perceived power of masculinity, all while clinging to protections afforded to women. This internal conflict fuels mouthy entitlement, high domestic violence rates in lesbian relationships, and a cycle of misery, as they rebel against the very system they subconsciously aspire to join.

In a satirical take on recent events, white lesbians are portrayed as enduring an epically disastrous week marked by public humiliation and tragedy. It began with a high-profile incident in Minneapolis, where an affluent white liberal lesbian, part of a couple protesting an ICE operation, was fatally shot after allegedly attempting to drive through agents, sparking riots and backlash that painted activists as reckless "Karens." The survivor, a vocal butch partner, faced online mockery for her aggressive rhetoric and failure to de-escalate, turning her into a symbol of misguided entitlement. Adding insult, the popular TV series Landman aired an episode ruthlessly satirizing a non-binary, liberal "they/them" character—depicted as hostile, vegan, and anti-patriarchy—who gets embarrassed in a college dorm scene, subtly dunking on similar affluent progressive stereotypes. Social media amplified the schadenfreude, with memes labeling it "Karen fatigue" and highlighting self-hatred deflected onto society, leaving the community reeling from real-world loss and fictional ridicule.

On a recent episode, host Clay Edwards sparked a discussion on the intersection of dating and politics after sharing a viral video from Right Angle News Network. In the clip, a liberal white woman on a first date quizzes her companion about journalist Nick Shirley and the Somali fraud scandals he uncovered in Minneapolis, leading to a tense exchange where she defends the fraud as potentially justified while accusing Shirley of racism and breaking into businesses. Edwards reacts strongly, calling it a red flag for over-engagement in politics, and poses questions to listeners—particularly single men and women—about whether they'd date someone deeply politically active, even if aligned ideologically.   He shares personal experiences, noting he's tried dating politically engaged conservatives twice but prefers separating his work passion from home life, avoiding "conservative power couples" who discuss politics nonstop. Edwards emphasizes wanting a partner with shared values who's "awake but not woke"—aware of world events without obsession—allowing room for romance, pop culture, or everyday topics like TV shows. He critiques relationships where one partner is oblivious or overly consumed, suggesting balance is key to avoid constant debate. Listener texts and comments flood in, with some agreeing they'd avoid anyone making politics their entire personality due to toxicity, while others humorously debate navigating such dates. Edwards ties it to broader cultural observations, like self-hate in activist circles, but keeps the focus on personal compatibility in romantic relationships amidst polarized views.

On a motivational Monday, host Clay Edwards kicks off the show with reflections on the chilly winter weather in Central Mississippi, contrasting it with his preference for milder seasons and sharing personal anecdotes about aging and lifestyle choices. He dives into a discussion on dating and politics, reacting to a viral video of a liberal woman quizzing her date on controversial topics like journalist Nick Shirley and Somali fraud allegations. Edwards poses questions to listeners: Do you want a partner as politically engaged as yourself, or is it better to keep politics out of personal life? He shares his own experiences, preferring shared values without constant debate, and critiques overly politicized relationships on both sides.   The conversation shifts to pop culture, praising the latest episode of the TV show Landman for its portrayal of a non-binary character and subtle commentary on liberalism, tying it back to real-world issues like self-hate and deflection in activist circles. Edwards addresses recent news, including a fire at a Jackson synagogue believed to be motivated by hate, with an arrest made but suspect details pending. He critiques the mayor's statement for broadening the focus beyond the incident and questions media handling.   Local crime takes center stage with a recap of a mass shooting in Clay County, where a 24-year-old man allegedly killed six people, including family members and a child, across multiple locations. Edwards draws parallels to a 2017 rampage in Copiah County. Nationally, he critiques NBA coaches Steve Kerr and Doc Rivers for comments on a Minneapolis incident involving ICE, accusing them of misinformation and bias.   Callers and texters weigh in on topics like racism's roots in theology, generational differences in experiences, and societal shifts away from shame and logic. Edwards emphasizes living in the present rather than past grievances, highlighting systemic biases and the need for truthful discourse. The show wraps with reflections on immigration consequences, media sensationalism, and cultural divides.

We're breaking down the latest news regarding a disturbing incident in Jackson, MS. A Jewish synagogue has reportedly been set on fire, leading to an active arson investigation. This act of hate has shocked the community, and we discuss the implications for Mississippi crime. #JacksonMS #ArsonInvestigation #HateCrime #MississippiNews

Thank you for tuning in to The Clay Edwards Show. This episode addresses the tragic mass shooting in West Point, Mississippi, where six people — including a seven-year-old — were killed and the suspect was arrested. Clay reviews the known facts and the developing investigation. He compares the attack to a similar 2017 case in Brookhaven, discusses mental health and public safety concerns, and argues for stronger responses including tougher penalties and improved mental-health resources. The show also previews related local stories and upcoming segments.

Host Clay Edwards highlights liberal hypocrisy in the murder of a young Ukrainian refugee woman on a train in Charlotte, North Carolina, by a black man who allegedly shouted racial slurs after the attack. He mocks Democrats' internal conflict, noting their support for Ukrainians (evident in flags and bios) clashes with the victim being a "pretty white girl" in America—seen as a disadvantage in their "oppression scales"—while the killer is black, from a Democrat city, and fits narratives they defend. Edwards argues liberals weigh factors like potential queerness to decide sides but ultimately can't support a white victim over a black perpetrator unless the latter is Republican, leading to no outrage or protests compared to cases involving police. He accuses them of double standards, prioritizing identity politics over justice, and questions why legal white immigrants face violence without liberal backlash.

Host Clay Edwards candidly admits he's not praying for his political enemies—liberals and "domestic terrorists"—stating he's fed up with their attempts to destroy America, lock up conservatives, and separate society during events like the COVID vaccine mandates. He dismisses calls to pray for them as un-Christian in his view, vowing to let God judge while prioritizing victories over them, and warns they'd send conservatives to "ovens" like Auschwitz if possible, emphasizing no sympathy for those who smiled while harming others.

Host Clay Edwards argues that liberals are misguided by Democratic politicians who promote disrespect toward law enforcement, including ICE agents, by trashing cops and elevating criminals as victims. He cites figures like Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey, Minnesota Governor Tim Walz, Ilhan Omar, AOC, and Kamala Harris for rhetoric that empowers anti-police attitudes, leading to violent protests, non-compliance, and attempts to harm agents—like the recent Minneapolis and Portland incidents. Edwards compares this to how supporters internalize political messaging, fostering a belief that defying federal authority is justified, even heroic, while ignoring consequences and enabling "domestic terrorists" in blue cities. He warns this creates a dangerous cycle of unrest, contrasting it with conservative support for police and self-defense.

Host Clay Edwards sharply criticizes Mississippi Attorney General Lynn Fitch for prosecuting two former Capitol Police officers, Steven Frederick and Michael Reinwalt, in a self-defense shooting involving suspect Jaylen Lewis, described as a drug dealer who attempted to run them over with his vehicle. Edwards accuses Fitch of hypocrisy, demanding she clarify her stance on law enforcement by comparing the case to recent ICE agent shootings: one in Minneapolis involving an "affluent, ugly white liberal woman" who allegedly tried to ram an agent, and another in Portland with Venezuelan gang members. He argues the officers were fully justified, warns that Fitch's actions undermine police in Jackson amid corruption and anti-police rhetoric from figures like Mayor Chokwe Antar Lumumba and Pastor Pickett, and suggests her decisions empower criminals and "domestic terrorists." Edwards vows to oppose her potential gubernatorial run, emphasizing support for police and calling for consistency in defending self-preservation against vehicular assaults.

In episode #1132, host Clay Edwards recaps the Ole Miss-Miami football game, praising both teams while expressing disappointment in the outcome and highlighting standout players. He discusses stormy weather warnings in Mississippi and shifts to political topics, criticizing Attorney General Lynn Fitch for prosecuting two former Capitol Police officers in a self-defense shooting involving suspect Jaylen Lewis, comparing it to recent ICE agent incidents in Minneapolis and Portland. Edwards defends law enforcement actions against protesters and criminals, questions liberal hypocrisy, and warns of potential civil unrest, urging support for police and border agents while calling out corruption in Jackson and Democrat-led cities.

Listen to my picks for the game & the over / under for tonight's Fiesta Bowl match-up between Ole Miss & Miami

In this segment of The Clay Edwards Show, host Clay Edwards revisits the 2020 controversy where the Mississippi Free Press aggressively targeted Petal Mayor Hal Marx, publishing articles like "Petal Mayor Marx's Tweets About George Floyd Draw Calls to Resign" that amplified demands for his resignation over comments suggesting Floyd's death was due to an overdose rather than police misconduct. Edwards argues the mayor was vindicated by later evidence, slams the outlet for failing to issue a retraction or apology, and contrasts it with their silence on related scandals like Minnesota's Somali fraud, calling out media bias in unfiltered style.
