Great message, I love the way he delivered it! WDE!!!

I’m sorry, but you are incorrect. To make a general action like this is just stereotyping based on your preconceived bias. How many manufacturing plants have you worked in or been a part of the leadership team of?

It stings, and I get it, but there are reasons to be optimistic as well: 1) This staff essentially met the consensus expectations just about every reasonable person had, with the exception of the NMSU debacle. The showings against UGA and bama were within grasp, and the fact that we lost stings, but no one really expected it to be as tight as it was. I'm not into moral victories, and we still lost, but were in the game. 2) CHF added significant talent to this years roster that Harsin decimated in just 2 years 3) CHF has won the teams support, they like him and play hard for him. 4) Putting together the best recruiting class we've had in a long time. Am I content with this season and where we're at - nope, but after taking a few minutes following this game I choose to look towards the positives and support the team and staff rather than mope and wallow in defeat. Another season and more calls to fire the coaching staff and start over, again.....

The pay is more affected by what the market allows than what the union can ask for. The term “properly run” is key, as I haven’t seen too many of those. They are usually more senior employees that are self serving and hide behind “seniority” rather than merit. But, I’ll sure there are some out there….

I disagree with part of this - it is not solely the role of the EHS team, it is the role of all employees to keep safe. As a Plant Manager and DoO, it is / was always my first responsibility to keep every employee safe. The EHS team certainly facilitates that, but it has to start at the top. I can’t think of a single manufacturing leader I’ve ever met that felt otherwise. If I ever had a planet manager or other manager in one of my operations that didn’t share this belief, they would be better suited to move along.

I’m not saying there was never a need for unions, but I’m saying that their time has come and past. There is nothing a union does now that isn’t already covered by law or a free market economy. In most cases they inhibit addressing problem employees, take advantage of their own membership, and drive so much cost into operations that they end up driving plants out of business or layoffs. Just curious if you’ve ever worked in, or supervised employees in a unionized facility (specifically manufacturing).

Embarrassing

After the last couple of games, I thought maybe we turned a corner on the OL. I sure didn’t expect to see a complete dumpster fire like this against NMSU. This offensive line play is a complete dumpster fire…..

The penalty yards are one thing, but the impact is understated because of the first downs we gave up.

Don’t think I’ve seen that many critical penalties in a half of football in my life…..

Since you clearly have a comprehension issue, I’ll repeat again - I am not advocating for Trump. I’d rather him not run again, but if he does he’s still better than Biden. You clearly have some sort of fixation on Trump. Maybe repressed feelings?

The same could be said of the Democratic Party - defending candidates blindly. Keep defending the endless corruption of Biden….

I’ve been running manufacturing facilities for over 25 years and have dealt with OSHA on several occasions, so I am well aware of what their role is. I have also led several unionized facilities and find it ironic that the same unions that file grievances every time an employee is disciplined for failing to follow safety rules is going to be present to supposedly “help” OSHA. OSHA inspectors are perfectly capable of ensuring that safety rules are followed without some union steward using that as a chance to “get even” with management. Of course, if the union is willing to have joint accountability for the conduct of its members, that could change things.

Not surprised. What exactly do you think would be beneficial from this arrangement?

It’s not that complicated, and contrary to your belief, it is not “whatever Trump does that you don’t like”. But keep following the leftist hive and regurgitating whatever you’re told.

Regardless of whether or not people feel they should be illegal, these are currently some pretty serious charges and Nick could be facing some pretty serious time.

I’ve said numerous times, in this thread and others, that Trump was not my first choice in 2016 (although he did do better than I thought he would) and he’s bo my first choice in 2024. I am 100% sure he would do a much better job than Biden though. What’s hilarious is watching the liberals work themselves into a frenzy at the mere thought of it.

But the theme is the same - you cite liberal sources saying essentially “Trump is saying or threatening authoritarian things”, what I cited are things Biden has actually done. You stated Trump was authoritarian, you have 4 years of his first term to provide some examples, and instead you post nothing more then fear mongering rhetoric. Not the same…..

So, someone who allegedly pledged to pursue retribution (I haven’t seen the actual quote or video) is worse than someone who is actually doing it? Once again, you state Trump is authoritarian, ignore the specific examples on Biden and just keep regurgitating the same party lines. It has to do with a lot more than appliances - just selectively pick and choose. Other than repeating liberal media hyperbole, care to cite any specific examples of Trumps authoritarianism? Care to name any political appointees that Biden made to anyone that wasn’t aligned with his political agenda? The issue isn’t “pushing for” ita making authoritarian edicts that is the issue. Or a Biden actually doing it? Keep burying your head in the sand. And in event you missed it the few dozen times I’ve said it - Trump is not my first choice in either election but I’d gladly take him over Biden.

1) Who cares what he claims his intent was - it’s authoritarian garbage to gain power he doesn’t have. Also, who said I didn’t care about collection of personal data? No need to put words in my mouth that I never said. 2) Speaking with some reporters more than others is one thing, intentionally freezing out reporters deemed “hostile” is a completely different matter. Trump took more questions from a hostile media in one week than Biden has taken his whole presidency. Trying to say he is just doing what every other president has done is disingenuous at best, and more likely pure dishonesty. 3) Do you really believe that? The fact that his biggest opponent just so happened to come under multiple indictments at that start of campaign season as opposed to the whole first 2 years of Biden’s presidency seems just a little coincidental don’t you think? The DOJ letting charges against the president’s son lapse under statute of limitations seem odd? How about a ridiculous plea deal that also precluded all future charges? That deal was absurd and it took a judge stepping in to prevent it. This is FAR from a neutral DOJ, keep drinking your Kool Aid. 4) What else is new is not even enforcing the laws he has available to him. To go even further, intentionally removing laws and tools he has to fight illegal immigration. Not to mention deliberately undercutting state’s attempts to enforce their own laws. He is circumventing laws and his duty in an attempt to sway future elections. Pure Authoritarian garbage 5) Whether he tried to forgive all or some, it is power clearly outside his role. More authoritarianism. 6) The EPA is under what branch? Also, what about air conditioners and ceiling fans? Crazy unilateral overreach - another example of authoritarian overreach 7) You really need to do some unbiased research if you don’t know much about it. “Finding a reason” to drive people out of business for minor clerical errors (we are NOT talking about criminal acts, that should be prosecuted) and bringing the full weight of the ATF / DOJ down on small business owners in an attempt to revoke their FFLs is pure authoritarian garbage. 8.) Trying to dismiss it doesn’t make it go away. And it’s not “pure bun lobby stuff” it is pure fact. There are estimates of 3-7 MILLION stabilizing braces in law abiding citizens possession and they have been there for over a decade. Chairman Biden unilaterally deceeed them to be illegal on a whim, and save an injunction in the 5th circuit court would have made millions of lawful citizens unknowingly felons overnight. Sorry, but each and everyone of these are perfect examples of Biden’s authoritarian policies and you have debunked none of them.

AUsome video! Very well done - thank you! I was so worried he slowed down a little bit thinking he was there and was going to coast in. Just glad he held on to the ball.

This is so true. Lew has done an absolutely AMAZING job as a center. To step in and fill those shoes is great for anyone, to do it as a true freshman in SEC play is what makes it AMAZING!

Sure. Off the top of my head here are a few: 1) His attempt to create a “Ministy of Truth” to control the narrative on the internet 2) His stifling of the media and only calling on certain, pre-screened reporters as has been documented numerous times 3) His weaponization of the DOJ to attack his political adversaries while simultaneously protecting his son, brother, and other allies 4) His selective enforcement of laws and his duty under oath to secure our nation (border). 5) His attempt to grab power that is clearly NOT his in unilaterally forgiving student loan debt 6) Misuse of the EPA to unilaterally ban various appliances. 7) Directing the ATF to target legal firearms dealers in an intent to run them out of business for minor clerical issues 8 ) Directing the ATF, without authority, to retroactively ban items that have been legal for a decade or more like unfinished frames or receivers or pistol stabilizing braces which not only violate prior ATF rulings, the APA, and the 2A Shall I go on?

They already do in the House. Ask the people in rural Illinois, California and New York how they like having “Urban values” crammed down their throats. In my opinion, this will be one of the biggest issues our country will have to face in the coming years. How do you respect people’s values and lifestyles without one side trying to force their will upon others?

I am consistent. One involves consent and a willing decision, the other doesn’t. The decision would be in the first trimester. “The Great Filter” as an answer to the Fermi Paradox - and probably one of the better thesis’.
