**The Clay Edwards Show – Episode 1294** Clay was one bad night away from missing the show and still showed up. That's the energy. Mississippi State rolled a Big Ten team on the road and looked like a program that actually wants to go bowling. Ole Miss handled business. Southern Miss did not. Clay vs Grok college football picks stay close: Clay still leads the season 37-11 to 34-14 after another strong week picking winners. Over/unders tried to ruin everybody. This weekend's real question is simple — whose game is the must-win? State at South Carolina for bowl hopes, or Ole Miss at home in the spotlight. Murderers' row is coming either way. Then the main event. Tasia Fortune's hanging death in Jackson produced an arrest: 51-year-old Jarques “Jock” Ratliff, Black male. Not the roving white supremacist gang the activists and some media spent days implying. Police say they interviewed 15 people, spent hundreds of hours, and more arrests may be coming. The boyfriend/person of interest was already locked up on a gun charge. Chief Brackney's presser left more questions than answers. Russ Latino's post lays it out clean: Trey Reed at Delta State had video, texts, and two autopsies pointing to suicide. Corey Zukadis — the white homeless man found hanging the same day — got treated like a footnote. National and local outlets still reached for Mississippi's lynching history before the facts were in. The “cavalry” (Black Panthers, BLM affiliates, Fred Hampton types) showed up in small numbers, held signs, chanted in front of Medgar Evers' house, offered water nobody asked for, and never made it to the “white neighborhoods” they promised. Screenshot of their own flyer got reverse-image-searched back to an old protest. Classic. Also in the mix: Sophie Cunningham's new photos and the left's instant race-bait attempt that MAGA simply does not care about. A Chris Benoit comparison nobody asked for. The “it's only racist if White people say it” screenshot. And a Gen X checklist that still checks every box. Facts over feelings. Narrative over evidence. Same as it ever was. Creston Berch in studio. No sugar. No filter.
**Activist interrupts Jackson City Council over a “lynching problem” that the facts still haven't produced.** Celina Charles drove down from Little Rock, skipped the public-comment signup, and hijacked Tuesday's meeting to accuse city and state leaders of ignoring what she called a lynching epidemic in Jackson. She named Tasia Fortune and Demartravion “Trey” Reed, demanded answers, and kept talking while Council President Vernon Hartley banged the gavel. Police Chief RaShall Brackney walked her out. No cuffs. Mission accomplished: scene made. **What's actually on the record** - Tasia Fortune, 29, mother of four, found hanging from a tree behind a vacant house on Road of Remembrance on Aug. 3. State medical examiner completed an autopsy weeks ago; results still not released to JPD. Chief Brackney says the case has been worked as a homicide from day one and warns against calling these “serial” race incidents. A person of interest, Terrence Anderson, was already locked up on a felon-in-possession charge after an argument with Fortune. - Trey Reed, Delta State student, found hanging on campus in September 2025. State ME ruled suicide. Family and activists still reject it. - Rasheem Carter (Taylorsville, 2022) also gets folded into the same narrative. - Ward 3 Councilman Kenneth Stokes wants the U.S. Attorney in the Fortune case and keeps invoking Emmett Till. He has no federal response yet. Charles says she's coming back for a march Friday focused on Fortune, Reed, “and all these lives.” Flyer has a hashtag and no location. Downtown Jackson is the default. South Jackson, West Jackson, and Northside Drive—where the bodies actually pile up—are not on the itinerary. Jackson remains one of the deadliest cities in America, overwhelmingly Black-on-Black. Officials sat on a simple public statement for a month while the lynching rumor did the work of keeping eyes off the homicide spike. Brackney finally said the quiet part: a lot of misinformation, don't treat these as a connected racial campaign. That should have been the first presser, not the one after an out-of-town activist crashed council. False lynching claims don't just waste oxygen. They torch whatever's left of race relations and give every actual killer a convenient fog.
Most strength coaches get weeks to settle into a new job. Kevin Rodriguez got four days.Kevin Rodriguez's path to Siena wasn't a straight line, but it was fast at the end. After building the strength program from scratch at Delta State and spending four years at UT-Chattanooga working with men's basketball, women's golf, and beach volleyball, Rodriguez accepted the Head Strength and Conditioning Coach job at Siena and was on campus within four days. He credits a mix of prayer, self-reflection, and honest conversations with mentors, including former UT-Chattanooga head coach Dan Earl, for helping him make the call.Once he arrived, Rodriguez treated the first weeks like an audit. He got every player's phone number from the director of operations and texted personal introductions before he'd even found a place to live. From there, he assessed the weight room, met the training staff, and ran team lifts built less around programming and more around establishing standards, energy, and trust. Rodriguez calls it going back to the same intangibles he built at Chattanooga. The location changes. The standard doesn't.Rodriguez also gets specific about how he manages pressure and emotion, both his own and his athletes'. A habit he picked up as a graduate assistant at Mississippi State, rehearsing team talks and workout explanations out loud in the car, is still part of his routine before every big moment, podcasts included. He also leans on a mantra passed down from a football coach at Delta State: take it personal, but don't be sensitive. It's the same approach he brings to coaching players through emotional moments on the court, treating them like adults instead of problems to manage.The conversation closes on expectations. Rodriguez inherited a Siena program that won its conference last season, the same situation he faced walking into UT-Chattanooga the year after a conference championship run. He talks through UT-Chattanooga's NIT championship season, a run built on patience through a rocky start, and the lesson he's carrying to Siena: enjoy the big moments, because not every coach gets one.Key Takeaways- Getting player phone numbers and sending personal introductions before arriving on campus builds trust before day one.- Rehearsing high-pressure conversations out loud, a habit from his graduate assistant days at Mississippi State, keeps him composed in team talks and media moments alike.- Take it personal, but don't be sensitive: a mantra that turns criticism into fuel instead of self-doubt.- Treating athletes like adults defuses conflict faster than trying to manage or control it.- Winning the NIT at UT-Chattanooga taught him to sit in a big moment instead of rushing back to work.Quote"Take it personal, but don't be sensitive."— Kevin Rodriguez, Head Strength and Conditioning Coach, Siena College

A Federal High Court in Warri, Delta State, delivered a landmark ruling on March 17, 2026, declaring that Nigerians have a constitutional right to record police officers performing their duties in public.Presided over by Justice H. A. Nganjiwa in suit FHC/WR/CS/87/2025, the judgment established several critical protections for citizens and requirements for law enforcement.Nigerians can freely record (video or photograph) police officers during operations, such as stop-and-search, in public spaces without fear of arrest or reprisal.The court ruled that police officers must wear visible name tags and display their force numbers while on duty.Officers are strictly prohibited from harassing, intimidating, or arresting citizens for recording, and they cannot confiscate or seize devices used for documentation.The court awarded ₦7 million to the applicant, lawyer Maxwell Nosakhare Uwaifo (₦5 million for rights violations and ₦2 million for litigation costs), after he was harassed for recording officers in May 2025.The Nigeria Police Force (NPF) has previously stated through its Public Relations Officer, Olumuyiwa Adejobi, that recording officers is permitted provided it does not obstruct their official duties. This court ruling now provides a firm judicial precedent, legally reinforcing that "anonymous policing" is unconstitutional and that public officials are subject to public scrutiny.
We recorded MobileViews 596 a day early on February 7, 2026, mostly to stay ahead of the weather. I'm currently under a flood watch in Hawaii, while Jon Westfall has been dealing with the aftermath of an ice storm in Mississippi. We spent some time comparing the "quality" of our power outages—I've had five short ones recently, while Jon's neighbors dealt with a single, brutal nine-day stretch. In my retirement, I've started using mechanical keyboards—I have several now. Surprisingly, I broke my first keycaps ever this month on a Royal Kludge board. The stems on the "O" and "3" keys actually cracked. I've been replacing them with a set of Warmier PBT shine-through keycaps, doing about three a day so it doesn't feel like a chore. Jon is still rocking a 15-year-old Apple keyboard, but I'm trying to convince him to try a 75% mechanical layout with a volume knob. We had a discussion about the recent tech stock dip following Anthropic's new Claude plugins. Major players like Microsoft and Oracle saw massive hits, and I can't help but wonder if CEOs are overreacting to AI's current capabilities. I see a parallel to the "Advanced Intelligent Networking" (AIN) of the late 80s. Back then, we were told visual "drag-and-drop" programming would replace coders, but that path failed because non-techies didn't account for error conditions or governance. Jon agreed, noting that while the sky is changing, it isn't necessarily falling, and companies may soon regret the mass layoffs they've justified in the name of AI. My Boox Note Air 5C journey continues. I recently picked up a Staedtler Noris Digital Jumbo stylus. It looks just like a traditional pencil and features a digital eraser on the end. Interestingly, erasing with the physical end of the stylus is actually faster than hitting "undo" on an e-ink screen. My current workflow involves syncing my daily doodles from the native Boox app to OneNote as PDFs, though I'm still struggling with how OneNote for Android handles the mixture of handwriting and text. Jon shared his progress on a mobile "Hyflex" setup for his psychology classes at Delta State. He's using a combination of gear to allow students to participate in-person, synchronously online, or via recording. One software highlight he mentioned is Better Display (the $21 Pro version), which allows for a picture-in-picture view of an extended display. It's a lifesaver when the classroom projector is positioned at an awkward angle behind the presenter. Finally, Jon is planning his hardware roadmap for the year. He's debating between a DIY Linux box for local LLM work, a Unify storage appliance, or waiting for a Mac Mini with an M5 chip. Personally, I'm keeping an eye on the rumor mill for a touchscreen MacBook—I might actually buy one if it ever surfaces.

Few, if any, know new Ole Miss head coach Pete Golding better than John Cox. The pair have been friends since Golding was 18-years-old. Cox was with Golding at Delta State. He was a sounding board if Golding needed it during one of the most chaotic coaching exits in college football history. Suffice to say, Golding has Cox's full support and belief. The No. 6-ranked Rebels (11-1) are off this week but return to practice on Monday to prepare for the postseason.

The Context of White Supremacy hosts the weekly Compensatory Call-In 09/20/25. We encourage non-white listeners to dial in with their codified concepts, new terms, observations, research findings, workplace problems or triumphs, and/or suggestions on how best to Replace White Supremacy With Justice ASAP. This weekly broadcast examines current events from across the globe to learn what's happening in all areas of people activity. We cultivate Counter-Racist Media Literacy by scrutinizing journalists' word choices and using logic to deconstruct what is reported as "news." We'll use these sessions to hone our use of terms as tools to reveal truth, neutralize Racists/White people. #ANTIBLACKNESS 21-year-old Demartravion "Trey" Reed was found hanging from a tree this week at Delta State University in Mississippi. While the investigation continues, initial autopsy reports and enforcement officers have told us that this is a suicide. Reed's family and Delta State students continue seeking truthful answers. Before he hopped the pond to chinwag with Suspected Racists in the United Kingdom, Pres. Donald J. Trump last week rattled off a lengthy list of White killers who shot up public venues and killed people. This week in Pennsylvania, a White man killed his ex-girlfriend's canine and then three White enforcement officers. Since this cop killer was a White dude and not "LeRoy," this didn't become a point of national outcry. #EndStageWhiteSupremacy #INVEST in The COWS - http://paypal.me/TheCOWS Cash App: http://cash.app/$TheCOWS Call: 720.716.7300 Code: 564943#

DELTA STATE HANGING OF BLACK STUDENT (TREY REED) RULED SUICIDE, NOT HATE CRIME (Ep #1,063)
Reactions after Bolivar County's coroner ruled Delta State University Student Trey Reed's death by hanging a suicide and Charlie Kirk's so-called "activism" is called into question as he's remembered by his own words.
# Jimmy Kimmel's Indefinite Suspension: Late-Night Propaganda Exposed Edwards kicks off with unbridled glee over ABC's suspension of Jimmy Kimmel following his mockery of President Trump's grief over Charlie Kirk's assassination. Playing the infamous clip where Kimmel compares Trump's Oval Office address—complete with breaking news fanfare and construction distractions—to a "4-year-old mourning a goldfish," Edwards blasts it as the final straw in Kimmel's decade of offensive rants. He recalls Kimmel's COVID-era jabs wishing death on unvaccinated people and denying them ER care, labeling him a "textbook cuck" and product of gaslighting leftists. Callers reminisce about Kimmel's cringeworthy past (blackface, misogyny) on *The Man Show*, arguing hypocrites like Kimmel and Howard Stern project their flaws onto conservatives. Edwards ties it to broader decay in late-night TV: once variety comedy for serotonin boosts before bed, now "anger addict outlets" peddling applause lines over laugh lines, turning viewers into rage-scrollers. #JimmyKimmelSuspended #LateNightFail #TrumpGrief #ABCScandal # Charlie Kirk Assassination: Narratives, Grief, and Leftist Hypocrisy At the episode's core, Edwards unpacks the murder of conservative activist Charlie Kirk, refuting Kimmel's claim that the killer—a trans boyfriend with ANTIFA-scrawled bullets—fits the "MAGA gang." He mocks the left's desperation to politicize it, from White House half-staff flags drawing fire from Reddit/Twitch echo chambers to Trump's "4th stage of grief: construction" on a new White House ballroom. Edwards praises Kirk as a rare moderate willing to debate "demons," contrasting him with firebrands like himself who see Democrats as "lizard people and pedophiles." A dark twist: the elderly false confessor, George Zinn, charged with child porn possession after FBI phone scans—Edwards quips it's "no surprise" given his view of Democrats' underbelly. He laments the humanity gap: leftists weep over Kimmel's job loss but shrug at Kirk's life, family shattered. #CharlieKirkMurder #TrumpFlags #LeftistTears #PedophileScandal # Testosterone as the Ultimate Red Pill: Woke Weakness Weaponized In a fiery tangent, Edwards hails testosterone therapy as Democrats' "kryptonite"—a weekly hip injection turning liberals conservative by amplifying clarity and deterrence. He likens high-T men to unmasked COVID holdouts parting crowds like the Red Sea, warning it'll convert so many blue voters that it'll soon be outlawed. Playful yet pointed, he urges screenings to repel "vampire"-like leftists allergic to sunlight (or manhood). #TestosteroneRedPill #WokeKryptonite #LiberalConversion #ManUpMississippi # ANTIFA Terror Designation: Finally, the Left's Boogeyman Bites Back Edwards cheers Trump's Truth Social bombshell: designating ANTIFA a "major terrorist organization" and probing its funders. He contrasts it with the Southern Poverty Law Center's silence on ANTIFA (crickets in searches) versus endless hits on groups like Moms for Liberty. Recalling ANTIFA's "civil war" with Atlanta cops over a training facility—where an SPLC lawyer got arrested—Edwards calls it peak irony: the left's anti-fascist facade exposed as the real threat. #ANTIFATerrorist #TrumpWins #SPLCHypocrisy #AtlantaRiots # Delta State Suicide vs. Victimhood Fetish: Lynching Lies Debunked Edwards confronts backlash to his Vicksburg coverage (a Black parolee assaulting a clerk over gas prices), where commenters demanded Delta State focus: Trey Reed's tragic hanging ruled suicide via video and autopsy (no foul play). He slams the "oppression fetish"—Black users convinced of a white racist lynching band, ignoring high young male suicide rates amid porn addiction, homophobia, and dating woes. White liberals echo the fury, mad it's not a hate crime to fit narratives. Stats don't lie: no modern tree-hangings, just fudged urban violence reports. #DeltaStateSuicide #LynchingMyth #OppressionFetish #BlackVictimhood # Urban Black Culture Rot: The Talk White Parents Need Edwards rants on "Black Democrat death culture" gripping cities like Jackson, Memphis, and Baton Rouge—top U.S. danger zones per stats. He shares a preacher's viral clip urging Christian white parents to warn kids: avoid stranger crowds, as Black ones pose "30 times more danger" than white (facts over feelings). Anecdotes abound: chaperoning zoo trips dodging naked exhibitionists on Ellis Avenue; his "talk" with daughters on solo city risks; the Ukrainian train murder as hate crime ("I got that white b*"). He blasts "hood" possessiveness—rappers like DaBaby "checking in" on rented blocks they don't own—and double standards: JPD's old warning to women against nighttime solo travel. Black-on-Black silence? Crickets. #BlackCultureRot #TheTalk #UrbanViolence #SundownTowns
AP correspondent Haya Panjwani reports on the Black student found hanged at a Mississippi university
