Chokwe Gets Disbarred, Capitol Police Change a Tire, and Clay Sits Out the DA Race (Ep #1316)

**On this episode of The Clay Edwards Show**, Clay and Creston Birch break down the weekend’s college football slate (State at LSU, Ole Miss hosting Missouri) before Clay delivers a lengthy, unapologetic shout-out to Capitol Police for going above and beyond after his girlfriend blew a tire on the Jackson side of the stack. He names names, praises the response, and contrasts it with the usual “bootlicker” noise.

From there the show shifts into Clay’s ongoing guitar obsession—he’s got a hard-to-find early-90s Ibanez bass landing and plans to get proper Floyd Rose setup help from Shane Turnage—then pivots hard into the permanent disbarment of Chokwe Antar Lumumba. Clay frames it as the least of Lumumba’s problems and runs through the leadership failures, COVID-era mismanagement, and the broader dismantling of Jackson under the previous administration.

They also cover Clay’s decision to sit out the Hinds County DA race entirely (conflicts involving a close friend on one campaign and longstanding issues with the other side), a hit-and-run dog story that leads into Monday’s planned guest from Raven Six Rising Lost Pet Recovery, and a blunt defense of Flock cameras against the privacy pushback that led Jackson to drop the contract. Clay argues the city can’t afford to surrender crime-fighting tools when it already has too few of them.

The episode closes with dual FAFO awards (Lumumba’s disbarment plus an ADA arrested on a domestic violence charge) and a tease of a major upcoming announcement from the governor involving Capitol Police and the Department of Public Safety.

Straightforward, local, and light on patience for bad leadership or selective outrage.
