lmao -- NewsNation plays Sen. Marsha Blackburn a clip of her railing about the Iran nuclear deal in 2015 and saying "I think we should require the president to come forward with every component" and asks if she wants the same transparency now, but she claims "this is very different from what Obama did"
@cbrennansports@MedillSchool@OmarJimenez Bless your heart. You’ve never allowed yourself to experience the hospitality of our southern states and it shows like my granny’s petticoat.
It’s no coincidence that the Ole Miss athletic department’s rise has happened at the same time @KeithCarterOM took over. Best AD in the country. Also shoutout to @walkerj29
As President, I would read 10 letters a day sent to me by ordinary Americans. At the Obama Presidential Center, we’ll have some of the letters I read — and responded to — every night. I still get emotional reading them, and it’s one of my favorite exhibits.
There’s a pattern I’ve noticed when it comes to Ole Miss and Oxford.
For years, when Ole Miss football was mediocre or irrelevant nationally, people loved romanticizing the place. They’d talk about how they’d always wanted to visit Oxford. They’d bring up William Faulkner, the food scene, the music, the charm of the town, the Grove, the pageantry. Ole Miss was treated like this fascinating Southern experience everyone wanted to see for themselves.
But the second Ole Miss became a real threat in college football, the second it started competing for top recruits, playoff spots, and legitimacy on the national stage the tone changed. Suddenly, people are reaching for every negative stereotype they can find, using the school’s history as ammunition when it becomes convenient competitively or to score points on social media.
Lane Kiffin talked to Jared Ivey’s mother, @Traceyiv, once over his three-year career.
She rejects the Ole Miss narrative he’s trying to push.
“Everybody was so lovely. A little piece of my heart is always going to be in Oxford.”
