Hey just because we’re cutting jobs and laying off people doesn’t mean that the economy isn’t the envy of the world. All you plebs who think otherwise just because your companies are laying off or closing warehouses that were booming in the Trump years just don’t see the big picture. Plenty of people are doing well, look at the NFL, they’re not trying to trim staff, oh wait…
While the NFL’s postseason is days away, it is layoffs, rather than playoffs, that are a principal concern within the league’s Park Avenue, Manhattan headquarters. Industry sources say that 200-plus tenured league employees across departments were emailed a voluntary buyout package Monday. When adding age and years of service, any employee with a total of 70 or above qualified for the package, sources said.
Among the benefits offered in the package: three weeks salary for every year served, plus bonuses. Employees have until late February to take the buyout, sources said. The Super Bowl is Feb. 11.
I’ll give myself the last word:
Pro tip to @SpeakerPelosi & @joenbc If you have to "get the message out to voters" that the economy is the "envy of the world" that means it's not
The Patriots apparently didn’t waste any time in hiring Jerad Mayo as their new head coach.
There is no reason to believe that Jerad Mayo is not a good coach. He has been with the team for half a decade and has done his job well. As a defensive coach his side of the ball has been the bright side all season. There have been indications for a while that Mayo was the heir apparent and as a defensive coach. By any measurable standard he would be a solid coach in the NFL.
All that being said with the Patriots instantly elevating Mayo there is an obvious question:
If you decide that Bill Belichick:
The winningest active coach in the league
the winningest coach in the franchise’s history
and the guy who has brought more
division
conference
and super bowl titles
to any team in the Superbowl era
Is the wrong person to coach your team at this time and you decide it’s time to go in a different direction.
Why would a person who:
Was drafted by Belichick
Played exclusively for Belichick during his career
Was hired as a coach by Belichick
Learned how to coach under Belichick
Has served continuously as a coach under Belichick
Be the right man to take your NFL franchise in a different direction that Bill Belichick?
The cancel culture has become bolder and more asinine since this historically illiterate mob first declared war on the history and founding principles of the United States. This rabble of brainwashed Marxists is operating under the direction of the leadership of the Democratic party.
Statue after statue featuring our founding fathers have been torn down by either mobs of leftists, or progressive politicians, all under the guise of stamping out racism. This supposed racism is only a smoke screen for disguising the true motive behind their reign of terror waged against statues. Like all leftists, the cancel culture mobs here in the United States despise individual liberty.
At first I was perplexed at the latest victim of the cancel culture, William Penn.
The National Park Service proposes to rehabilitate Welcome Park to provide a more welcoming, accurate, and inclusive experience for visitors. Welcome Park was designed by the internationally acclaimed design firm Venturi & Scott Brown Associates. The park is located on the site of William Penn’s home, the Slate Roof House, and is named for the ship, Welcome, which transported Penn to Philadelphia. The design and construction of Welcome Park was funded by the Independence Historical Trust and was completed in 1982.
The proposed rehabilitation of Welcome Park includes expanded interpretation of the Native American history of Philadelphia and was developed in consultation with representatives of the indigenous nations of the Haudenosaunee, the Delaware Nation, Delaware Tribe of Indians, the Shawnee Tribe, and the Eastern Shawnee Tribe of Oklahoma. The reimagined Welcome Park maintains certain aspects of the original design such as the street grid, the rivers and the east wall while adding a new planted buffer on three sides, and a ceremonial gathering space with circular benches. The Penn statue and Slate Roof house model will be removed and not reinstalled. In a separate and future effort, new exhibit panels will be installed on the south site wall to replace the Penn timeline.
Independence National Historical Park has withdrawn the review of a draft proposal to rehabilitate Welcome Park and closed the public comment period,” the National Park Service said in a statement.
“The preliminary draft proposal, which was released prematurely and had not been subject to a complete internal agency review, is being retracted,” it said. “No changes to the William Penn statue are planned.
It became abundantly clear why The Statue of William Penn was targeted by the Biden regime when the following quote by William Penn appeared in my Facebook Newsfeed in the form of a meme:
If we will not be governed by God, we must be governed by tyrants.
Right is right, even if everyone is against it, and wrong is wrong, even if everyone is for it
A good end cannot sanctify evil means; nor must we do evil, that good may come of it…To do evil that good may come of it is for bunglers in politics as well as morals
It is certain that the most natural and human government is that of consent, for that binds freely, … when men hold their liberty by true obedience to rules of their own making.”
No people can be truly happy, though under the greatest enjoyments of civil liberties, if abridged of the Freedom of their Conscience as to their Religious Profession and Worship.
For the sake this basic Question I’ll stipulate that Joe Biden won the last election cleanly and is not the figurehead of a foreign or domestic enemy whose was worried about the success of the US and set a goal to bring US down.
So my question: “If you were a foreign and/or domestic enemy of the United States whose goal was to bring down the country that was prospering under Trump and to that end stole election 2020 to put a puppet regime in place to enact that goal, how would your actions and agenda differ from the Biden Administrations over the last four years?”
Speaking of people trying to bring down the country apparently Dr. Anthony Fauci must not have taken his medication yesterday as he had quite a series of memory lapses.
So the question: How is it that being under oath tends to undermine the memory of people who are supposedly competent intelligent and in charge?
Unexpectedly of courseTM
As I was tying this post a tweet from Rapoport & Pelissero tweeted and the NFL reported that Bill Belichick is out in New England. A news conference has been called for Noon.
I question the wisdom here as Mike Vrabel not withstanding it’s unlikely they will find a better coach but be that as it may.
While Bill might enjoy the first days off he had over the last quarter century the next question is obvious:
How many days off is he going to get before he is snatched up by a team?
If I owned a team I wouldn’t wait and let someone else get him. He’ll need time to evaluate prior to the April draft.
Apparently the number of white recruits in the US army has practically been halved since 2018.
How much longer can the US avoid bringing back the draft?
I’m thinking even with a Trump or DeSantis admin not very long because unless you completely purge the woke you aren’t getting men.
Finally we now have learned that the story concerning Bill Ackman’s wife was shopped to multiple press outlets who rejected it out of hand before Business Insider decided to run with it and then have it blow up in their faces to the point where the owner of the company is rather worried:
Ackman seems to be on the warpath and the folks who green lighted this must be feeling like Admiral Yamamoto at the end of the movie Tora Tora Tora
All of this is interesting and amusing but nobody seems to have the answer to the obvious question:
Who were the people shopping this story?
We need to know their names because if the DEI state falls ironically we will have them to thank for it
