TUCKER CARLSON (HOST): Jackson, Mississippi is going to be "the most radical city on the planet." Most politicians don't follow through on their promises, but Chokwe Lumumba definitely did. He has made Jackson so radical that it no longer has drinking water, or any water. For the third day in a row, you just can't get water in Jackson. The city's main treatment plant failed on Monday. Residents cannot now flush their toilets, firemen can't fight fires, people are waiting in lines a mile-long to get bottled water from the National Guard. Jackson State University just announced that there was, quote, "Low to no water pressure at all campus locations."

So that's truly a radical city. So radical that you literally can't have water. Next step, take away roads and indoor heating. Once you've taken away flush toilets, there's really no limit to the radicalism Mayor Lumumba can bring to Jackson, Mississippi.
