@BradMBolton @John_R_Ramage @Jewelsno3 Glad you guys had a good time today! Good pics!

Thanks to @John_R_Ramage , I got to witness history of the top two teams in the nation battling it out in my favorite sport tonight! Great ballgame by two great teams! @Jewelsno3 let me miss her birthday supper to witness history! Thanks Jewels! Added benefit of seeing America’s favorite senator , @SenKatieBritt #WDE! Thanks Johnny Boy! @Tatter766 , great seeing you!

Appreciate @SenKatieBritt speaking truths to @chopracfpb @CFPB . Instead of focusing on protecting consumers from financial fraud, they are too busy writing rules and regulations that hurt #MainStreet protectors, #CommunityBanks which inevitably hurts the customers we serve. This bureau needs a major overhaul and focus on the #TBTF they were created for. @ICBA @John_R_Ramage @troutguide81611 @davidapatterson @jonesjchad

Per @RepBlaine, the @SBAgov is meant to be the lender of last resort and not new competition of local banks. The SBA needs to get back to basics.

Proud to be with these strong @ALBankers #CommunityBankers who serve as @ICBA Leadership Bankers advocating for our #OneMission priorities of a flourishing #CommunityBanking Environment! #ICBASummit @John_R_Ramage @jonesjchad @chrisharper1 @sk_eberhart @troutguide81611 @davidapatterson

Community bankers: This is not an “all banks” crisis - it is a threat to community banks! There will be no advocacy from Associations that are beholden to #TBTF banks. It’s up to you to make your voices heard.

These headlines are not the same. @ICBA: “ICBA Denounces Remarks from Sec Yellen on Bailouts for Systemically Risky Institutions” @ABABankers: “Yellen: Americans can feel confident in banking system” If you are a #CommunityBank paying for dual membership you are wasting money.

#CommunityBanks don’t need their bailouts, but the #TBTF’s and the #SIFI’s should have to pay real money for these inequitable governments insurance policies!

Yellen says only uninsured deposits at banks deemed a systemic risk will be protected Such a slap in the face to #CommunityBanks who keep #MainStreet alive everyday! Lucky for us, our customers trust us because unlike TBTF we are accountable to them. ⁦ cnbc.com/2023/03/16/svb…

@John_R_Ramage @DerekBWilliams @MissyRamage @BradMBolton @ICBA I don’t get a shirt? 😂

As begin the final day of #ICBALive and the peaceful transfer of power to @DerekBWilliams, we say #Aloha to Brad Bolton’s chairmanship. Aloha is the word used to say both 'hello' and 'goodbye' in Hawaiian kind of like #RollTide. #JASGTTAT | #LCBLives

@John_R_Ramage @KappaDeltaHQ @MissyRamage What was your time in the run, john?

Back in #Tuscaloosa for KD Parents Weekend with the middle child.

‼️ Last Call ‼️ The Alabama Bankers Association is hosting a reception honoring Brad Bolton’s ICBA Chairmanship on Thursday, March 2nd from 2:00 to 4:00 pm at The Club in Birmingham, Alabama.

Our new polling conducted by @MorningConsult indicates consumers oppose controversial legislation to apply routing restrictions to credit card transactions, which would end credit card rewards programs. icba.org/newsroom/news-…

With the @federalreserve's interest rate hikes hastening the normalization of deposits, @FDICgov should quickly draw down its assessment rate increase to avoid needlessly elevating bank costs at a time of economic uncertainty. @BradMBolton via @AmerBanker: americanbanker.com/opinion/fdic-s…

@John_R_Ramage Hoser!!

Strange Brew is in the discussion of the funniest movies of all time.

Simple regulatory changes by the #FHFA board could help solve many capital and liquidity issues for #CommunityBanks. @FDICgov should lead the way in encouraging these changes.

John Cohen hired that guy. Mike Leach, I'm talking about.

@ScreenGrabSnafu @JimMWeber 1963

If this is in fact Lane Kiffin's last game in Oxford, he's gotta hit the dog pee celebration after Ole Miss's final TD:

@KennyWCarson @VanAllenPlexico 1963 🤫

@VanAllenPlexico 😂😂 reality is setting in!!!!

The impression I’m getting from various reports across the Auburn landscape is that Auburn was set on Kiffin, but then 1-2 other coaches not being considered came forward quietly. In a kind of Kelly-LSU way. We’ll see, but that would give AU some leverage anyway.

@WarBlogle Jawja

10000% pulling for Oregon to beat Georgia this weekend. Is it because of Bo Nix or because it's Georgia? You tell me.
