Mark Wilson

@KySportsRadio My very same thought process!

I think the Daniel Cameron strategy of “I will run no ads and hope the people hate seeing the face of the other two candidates so much that they vote for me”, might actually work

@KySportsRadio Similar to Kenny Payne at UL

I am really just amazed at how poorly Mark Pope has coached this team this year. It’s just been a dreadful performance all the way around There was no reason for Kentucky to lose this game.

My Venezuela experience as head of trading in the region for Cargill. Cargill was/is the leading producer of critical staple ingredients such as flour, pasta, vegetable oil, and rice in VZ. I am not saying I agree with grabbing the dictator, but I did have a front row seat to the damage a kleptocracy did to innocent people. 1. The government took over our "minute rice" facility at gunpoint because we were "gouging" the nation's poor. The government was never able to run the plant. It never ran again. It was returned years later with no equipment inside 2. There are 1000's of generals in the army. They are each given a slice of the economy to loot. The large number of generals made it difficult to organize a coup against the regime. 3. The government opened grocery stores and sold staples below the cost we sold them to the government. In theory they used petro oil money to lower grocery prices. Our regular grocery outlets were forced out of business. When the government demanded we sell them products below cost we simply had to shut down. The populous became ever more dependent on the government handouts. (PS this is the mayor of New York City's proposal. 4. Dollars- We needed dollars to go buy raw materials like wheat from places like the US and Canada. The government would periodically allocate us some dollars that could only be spent for raw materials and freight. Eventually only the local companies that can and would pay bribes got dollar allocations. We had several facilities closed for lack of raw material 5. My employees liked working for Cargill. The office was an armed compound with access to a gym, high speed internet, global communications, and a weekly box of basic staples. Cargill provided a safe and secure environment if only for the working hours. 6. Employees became very close to others inside the apartment building. Going out on the street with a desperate population was not advisable. 7. I needed wood pallets for feed. We tried to export wood pallets to swap for grain. We refused to pay the bribes it would take to export the pallets 8. I once tried to set up a closed loop wheat planting to flour mill supply chain. A. They came and stole all the seed wheat for food. When we tried to ship in seed wheat in containers via US donors there was no way to get it out of the port without it being stolen 9. Livestock- Our feed business completely collapsed. Even if you could raise a pig, you couldn't defend it from being stolen. People with guns were hungry. 10. Employees- In the end my highly skilled team alone with other highly educated people chose to leave. Cargill often found jobs for them in other Latin countries. The regime was more than happy to see the well-educated leave the country. Setting these employees up with high quality stable jobs after fleeing remains one of the best things I ever did in my career. No one remembers millions in trading earnings. This is a short list. In my opinion the first money spent needs to happen now and it needs to be food. The US is already on the clock. The current regime does not care if it starves the population. The orgy of theft will actually accelerate if they believe their days are numbered. VZ should be an outstanding customer of US grown ag products. Rice, bread wheat, veg oil ect. Feed the people first. Jeff Kazin Former head trading Cargill

@volunteercorn Well said, Curtis.

We lost a great husband, father, grandfather, friend and coworker this week. When all the ag world of vendors, competitors and co workers show up to honor the life of our friend Jamie Dezarn today, that tells you what kind of man he was! Rest in peace my friend.

@CFBReport @jaredsmith75 Join a conference and play a tougher schedule.

Notre Dame was ranked No. 9 and Alabama was ranked No. 10 in Week 14. Notre Dame won at (4-8) Stanford 49-20, Alabama won at (5-7) Auburn 27-20. Alabama JUMPS Notre Dame, swapping spots at 9 and 10. Fast forward to this week, Alabama gets SMASHED by UGA, and ND doesn’t play. Alabama stays at No. 9 and Notre Dame falls another spot to No. 11, despite the four teams behind them losing/not playing. I don’t care if you think Notre Dame should’ve missed the playoff all along, but the committee just contradicted everything they stood for the past month. Disgraceful decision making.

@WPSDLocal6 Sandra Wilson is the best of the best

Paducah City Commissioner and Mayor Pro Tem Sandra Wilson announced Friday that she has filed to run for reelection. Wilson has served seven consecutive terms on the city commission since 2013. wpsdlocal6.com/news/commissio…

Terrifying! 🙏🏽

@adamhedelen She was indeed a great leader and public servant. She set the bar for economic development in Ky.

The greatest public servants make a generational impact. Governor Collins’ was the economic development governor and her legacy will long endure. She was also the straightest shooter I ever encountered in politics. kentucky.com/news/politics-…

@kentuckyag @Jay__Hall I love the idea of the Sunshine Class at Ky State Fair❤️👨‍🌾😇

☀️ The 2025 Sunshine Class was truly unforgettable! This event gave 69 participants with special needs the opportunity to step into the show ring, work hands-on with sheep, and experience the joy of showing livestock at the Kentucky State Fair.

I HAD TO DO IT — If you want to know what I did, you will have to watch the video! I apologize to anyone I scandalized! #Wimbledon2025 #princesskate

@Rightanglenews This is how Florida takes control, and I think more cities need to follow, don't stand for it from the start, and warn people of the consequences.

@KySportsRadio Let’s go, Racers!!!

Murray State up 5-3 in the 8th….

@KySportsRadio Agreed

This isn’t the day for that shit man I saw the utter devastation up close and watched federal, state and local officials of different parties come together and support each other for a community devastated Take a break from fighting and pray for the fellow Kentuckians

@SGTValadez Trump does not drink any alcohol.

Never drink or eat from an unknown source. A valuable lesson right here. x.com/CursedAII/stat…
