From the Principal Toyota Studios, it's Morning in Memphis with Todd Starnes.

And a very good Thursday to you. A busy day here at The Mighty 990 and a busy day across the Mid-South as well. We are so happy that you have chosen to hang out with us today here on The Mighty 990 We have a very special guest coming up a little bit later in the program, the president of the Southern Baptist Convention is going to be joining the program, and he has a very special message and a warning to people of faith across the Mid-South. Dr. Willie Rice is going to be joining us at the bottom of the hour, so you're going to want to be sure to be a part of that great conversation we're going to have with the president of the nation's largest Protestant denomination. Also, a little bit later on today, Memphis City Council is going to do it again. They're going to resume the session that ended in that violent protest earlier this week. By the way, I don't know if you guys have seen this, but Memphis is now national news. National headlines, Good Morning America, CBS News, TMZ, everybody is covering the chaos that unfolded at the city council meeting. All of these far left, rent-a-mob agitators, led by Justin Pearson, they are causing mayhem because of the data centers. And they want the data centers shut down. They want Elon Musk run out of town. They say they want Elon's money, but they don't want anything else. Well, Elon's not just going to come to Memphis and drop millions of dollars, right? So anyway, we're going to see how all of that plays out. Meanwhile, the city council chair released a statement last night, and it's really interesting. They're trying to appease this rent-a-mob, and it's not going to work. Also, you've got city councilman Ford Canale, who wrote a statement obtained by Fox 13 and said that he is deeply appalled by what unfolded and said the council fell short of ensuring the safety of people in the council chambers. So he's calling for a full internal review, he's calling for an investigation. He wants to know whether the appropriate level of police presence and security was requested beforehand. Well, of course it wasn't.

He's also reaching out to the district attorney's office to review what happened with MPD and other officers. You know, this is what gets me. Oh, and here's, he also wrote this, Ford wrote this, Charges should be brought where the evidence and the law supports them. Quite frankly, they need to haul in Justin Pearson. And by the way, all of you far left agitators, can I say something about your, your Lord and Savior, the Afro Jesus? Can we talk about this for just a moment? Afro Jesus was standing in the back of the room. This is something you need to pay attention to. This guy, he agitates and stirs up, but then he positions himself so that others will take the fall. You watch, go back and look at all the protest, and you'll see what I'm talking about here. Afro Jesus has absolutely, I think he's a coward. That's what I think he is. I think this guy is a coward. He's got the loud mouth, but he doesn't have the moral courage to stand alongside the mob that he riles up.

So if they're going to investigate, they need to take a look at this guy. And if you watch the videos, you can see Afro Jesus, Justin Pearson, and he's back there with the big grin on his face.

This was what he was hoping for.

And quite frankly, put everybody in that council chamber, everybody inside City Hall in danger. But can we just, let me ask you about the security there. Who in their right mind would let anybody into the building with a megaphone, right?

And I know some people are like, well, maybe they hid them in their... I mean, they're talking about megaphones.

So at some point, let's just say, for the sake of the argument, that the the rent-a-mob actually hid the megaphones on their person. You would think that the security guard would say, this is either, I don't know, a Dolly Parton convention, or somebody's sneaking something in here. I mean, really? Come on. So anyway, we'll see how all of that plays out. I don't think anybody's... Look, they were fist fighting, fist fighting in City Hall, and nobody got arrested. They were literally, those city council members were in danger. Nobody did anything about it. And that is something that has to be addressed. A 901-260-5926, our telephone number this morning, if you want to weigh in on that, 901-260-5926.
