BREAKING- Trump reportedly plans to kick trans troops out of the military on inauguration day!!

Donald Trump is expected to sign an executive order that would remove transgender service members from the military as soon as his first day in office. The president-elect is reportedly preparing to issue an order following his inauguration on January 20 that would effectively ban trans people serving in the military — and then medically discharge the thousands of currently serving trans service members in the armed forces. In his first term in office, Trump declared that the US would no longer “accept or allow” trans people in the military, citing “tremendous medical costs and disruption,” he tweeted in 2017. The ban took effect in 2019. President Joe Biden reversed that policy, which was the subject of several lawsuits. Now, Trump is expected to immediately rescind Biden’s order and go further by ejecting currently-serving trans troops, according to The Times, citing sources familiar with the president-elect’s plans. The executive action is among a stack of orders the president-elect is planning to issue as soon as he re-enters the White House, including sweeping actions on immigration, all of which are expected to draw significant legal battles. “These unnamed sources are speculating and have no idea what they are actually talking about. No decisions on this issue have been made,” Trump transition spokesperson and incoming White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt said in a statement shared with The Independent. “No policy should ever be deemed official unless it comes directly from President Trump or his authorized spokespeople.” Throughout his campaign, which joined Republican groups in spending tens of millions of dollars on anti-trans attack ads targeting people who make up less than 1 per cent of the nation’s population, Trump pledged to revoke vital civil rights protections for LGBT+ people and block trans students from playing sports or using bathrooms that align with their gender identities. He also intends to ban gender-affirming healthcare for trans youth nationwide. Republicans have filed hundreds of state-level anti-trans bills, and within days after the 2024 elections, GOP members of Congress have spent hours vilifying and misgendering trans people, including the first-ever trans member of Congress, while pushing new legislation to block trans people from bathrooms across the country. The Republican Party’s 2024 platform lists “Keep Men Out of Women Sports” among its most important priorities. Pete Hegseth, Trump’s nominee to lead the Department of Defense, who will be in charge of 3 million service members and civilian staff around the world, supported Trump’s previous ban on trans service members, and has baselessly asserted that trans people are “not deployable” and cause “complications.” There are roughly 15,000 trans people serving in the nation’s armed forces at a time when branches are suffering from recruitment shortfalls. “These people will be forced out at a time when the military can’t recruit enough people,” a source familiar with Trump’s plans told The Times. Banning trans people from the military “would undermine the readiness of the military and create an even greater recruitment and retention crisis, not to mention signaling vulnerability to America’s adversaries,” Rachel Branaman, executive director of Modern Military Association of America, said. “Abruptly discharging 15,000-plus service members, especially given that the military’s recruiting targets fell short by 41,000 recruits last year, adds administrative burdens to warfighting units, harms unit cohesion, and aggravates critical skill gaps,” she said. “There would be a significant financial cost, as well as a loss of experience and leadership that will take possibly 20 years and billions of dollars to replace.” Paulo Batista, a transgender analyst in the Navy, said that a ban would have a ripple effect through the armed services. “You take 15,000 of us out — there’s more but that’s the number that is always mentioned — that’s 15,000 leadership positions, every one of us play a vital role,” he said.

THE ANTHONY FOX & DESMOND BARNEY TELL ALL INTERVIEW (Ep #877)

Get ready for a bombshell episode of Mississippi's Most Incendiary Talk Radio Show & Podcast, where host Clay Edwards, alongside his co-host, the former Hinds County Assistant District Attorney for over a decade, Shaun Yurtkuran, delve into the murky waters of Jackson's law enforcement with two exclusive guests: former Jackson Police Department officers Anthony Fox and Desmond Barney.
In this no-holds-barred, tell-all interview, Fox and Barney break their silence on the George Robinson murder case that shook the city to its core. They'll recount the harrowing details of their arrest, the trial, and what life has been like since. But that's just the tip of the iceberg, folks!
The real meat of this episode? We're going to explore the whispers, the rumors, and the downright allegations of potential collusion between Hinds County District Attorney Jody Owens and Jackson Mayor Chokwe Antar Lumumba. Did these high-profile figures play a part in shaping the narrative around this case? Was justice served, or was there a play for power behind the scenes?
Clay and Shaun will navigate through this legal and political labyrinth, armed with their sharp wit, incisive questions, and a dash of Southern charm. Expect revelations, expect debates, expect the truth to be as elusive as a greased pig at a county fair.
Join us as we unpack:
The night that changed everything for George Robinson and the officers involved. The inside story of the courtroom drama, where justice seemed more like a guest star than a mainstay. The undercurrents of political maneuvering in Jackson - could this case have been a pawn in a larger game?

FAFO SPORTS LIVE W/ SHAUN & CLAY AT MCB'S BAR & GRILL ON THE REZ (11/23/24)

This is the first time I've loaded up Shaun and my Saturday morning sports show that we do live from McB's every Saturday morning, mainly because we pick the games before kickoff so I figured most people wouldn't care to go back and listen to our picks after the fact but we ended up having some really good conversation today around the college football playoff, the future effects of the NIL on college football and more. Kingfish with Jackson Jam showed up and joined us for the second half of the show. IMO this was the best of the 10 or so of these that we've done.
Come out and join Shaun Yurtkuran and myself live at McB's Bar & Grill this morning from 10:30am - Noon as we breakdown all of week 13's biggest college football matchups!! The Ole Miss Vs. Florida game kicksoff at 11:00am so the Hotty Toddy faithful will be in the house representing their Rebs!!

FAFO FRIDAY W/ FRED SHANK & SHAUN YURTKURAN (Ep #876)

State Rep. Fred Shanks & my regular co-host Shaun Yurtkuran join the show today as we discuss a new bill Fred is getting ready to introduce that would force elected officials to temporarily step down (with pay) if they've been charged with a felony in conjunction with the use of their office. This is in response to Hinds County D.A Jody Owens being the alleged ring leader in a massive corruption and bribery scandal with Jackson mayor Chokwe Antar Lumumba and multiple city council members, lobbyist and more.
We also discussed school choice and more.

THURSDAY'S FULL SHOW (Ep #875)

1- I went back and listened to my first podcast / radio show ever otw to the station this morning and it got me to thinking about how far I've come and how the show has grown into what it is now. It reminded me that I needed to always look for ways to get the audience younger so we don't age out either. I tell a story about listening to a podcast over the weekend with Kelly Earnhardt (Dale Jr's sister and business partner) interviewing the guy who was in charge of sports marketing for Budweiser back in the late 90's / early 2000's when they signed Dale Jr. and he explains how the brand had to get younger to stay relevant, that really resonated with me this week as I look for ways to do that same thing.
2. I will have to go back and listen to the show and update the descriptions later because we hit a lot of flowing topics and I don't recall which order. I'll update as I'm clipping up the video for the shorter clips.

TUESDAY - FULL SHOW (Ep #874)

-JPD allegedly fires two cops for pursuing a woman that crashed at a high rate of speed Saturday morning in South Jackson that ended with her running off the road, hitting a tree, vehicle exploding and her dead on arrival without so much as stopping to render help or even calling in the wreck

DID JPD FINALLY ARREST THE METROCENTER AYRAN BROTHERHOOD COPPER THIEVES?

Four white people have been arrested in Jackson, Mississippi while breaking into the Metrocenter mall in what looks to be an attempt to steal copper. We take a look back to a story from WLBT on Sept. 30th that claimed the current Metrocenter resident (a movie studio) claimed that Ayran Brotherhood gang members were stealing copper and transporting it to Houston for Mexican drug cartels. I initially called BS on this story, but now I'm questioning my original assumption. Below is the current story from WLBT
JACKSON, Miss. (WLBT) - Four people were arrested by the Jackson Police Department for Business Burglary among other crimes.
Jackson Police Department Precinct Two Units responded to 3645 Metro Center Drive regarding a burglary in progress Thursday.
Upon receiving a description of the suspects and the suspect’s vehicle, officers were able to apprehend them on the top-level loading dock.
Suspects forced their way into the building on the lower level of Burlington Department Store.
The vehicle used in the crime was a 2002 Chevrolet Silverado truck with a switch tag.
Located inside the vehicle were guns, burglary tools, and copper wire.
Four suspects were taken into custody and transported to police headquarters to be interviewed.
According to JPD, after the interview, the four suspects were booked into the jail on the following charges:
 

TWO JPD OFFICERS PASS BY DEADLY WRECK WITHOUT STOPPING

JACKSON, Miss. (WLBT) - Two Jackson Police officers passed the scene of a deadly crash shortly after it occurred over the weekend and did not render aid, the police chief says.
At 5 a.m. Saturday, Jackson Police Department Precinct 1 officers responded to the crash at Cooper Road and Suncrest Drive.
A red Cadillac SUV was traveling south on Suncrest Drive when it left the road, crashed into a tree at the corner of Suncrest Drive and Cooper Road, and caught fire.
According to JPD, the vehicle’s driver, Tina Carter Sawyer, 35, died during the accident.
But, according to Jackson Police Chief Joseph Wade, two Jackson Police Precinct 1 officers passed the scene of the accident “shortly” after it happened but did not stop or render aid.
Wade says he questions the officers’ actions, “but, more importantly, their inactions during this situation.”
Following a JPD Internal Affairs investigation, the officers were placed on administrative leave for questionable action and inaction.
According to JPD, the case will be turned over to the Mississippi Bureau of Investigations, and the findings will be handed over to the Mississippi Attorney Generals' Office.
