Democrats Are PANICKING Over Bad 2020 Candidates, Ask "Is There Anybody Else?" Oct 22, 2019

Show notes

Democrats Are PANICKING Over Bad 2020 Candidates, Ask "Is There Anybody Else?" The Democratic party is fractured between moderate and far left, Trump has raised a record amount of money, and Moody's analytics shows Trump takes 2020 victory in all three projections. So what can they do? At a recent event Democrats desperately tried to come up with a solution. Michelle Obama? Hillary Clinton? Eric Holder? The Democratic establishment knows that it doesn't have any strong contenders to defeat Donald Trump and the panic was on display as reported by the New York Times. Id the far left democrats won't vote for a moderate and a moderate won't vote for a socialist what can they do? It's easy Three simple words "Orange Man bad" Democrats are planning to use negative partisanship to drive voter turnout in 2020. This means that instead of focusing on core issues and policy they will focus on why Trump is bad. The goal is to inspire voters based on hating Trump above anything else. In truth it may work. Moody's says that with a historical voter turnout Democrats win 2020 by 9 electoral votes. But that is the exception not the rule and right now its a desperate long shot.

Moderate Democrats Impeachment Strategy Will BACKFIRE, They Haven't Accounted For 'Bernie Or Bust' Oct 21, 2019

Show notes

Moderate Democrats Impeachment Strategy Will BACKFIRE, They Haven't Accounted For 'Bernie Or Bust.' In a leaked memo from Axios we can see that Democrats are pushing Moderates toward support for impeachment due to national polls showing people are more inclined to support a pro impeachment inquiry candidate over someone who isn't. While the memo does take the republican polls into consideration they seem to have missed one big flaw, the far left and Bernie or bust voters. They are hoping that policy issues will take a back seat to partisanship in 2020 but this is a mistake in my opinion. The Democrats are not unified and far left voters do not want to support moderates. Far left democrats frequently refer to moderates as "republicans" and refuse to vote. In fact Bernie Or Bust played a huge roll in Trump winning in 2016. In fact some Bernie voters protested the Democrats by actually voting FOR Trump as a kind of punishment. Moderates need to focus on unity and bringing people together instead of playing into the 'orange man bad' narrative. While negative partisanship is a huge factor for Democrat voters, should they nominate a moderate it won't matter. The Far left sees the Moderates as entirely separate already.

Democrat's Pro Union Law BACKFIRES On Journalists, Sparking Panic And Outrage Oct 20, 2019

Show notes

Journalists FURIOUS Over Democrat's Pro Union Law Effectively ENDING Freelance Journalism (UPDATE). Yesterday I covered a law that was pushed by Democrats in California to protect jobs and defend unions. The conflict is centered around freelance journalists being told they can only write 35 articles per yer for a company, effectively ending freelance journalism outright. Journalists have been waging an online feud with the Democrat who pushed the bill stating that she was going to cost them their financial security and would harm the news industry. Democrat Lorena Gonzales pushed back saying it will protect good newsroom jobs and pressure companies to hire freelancers. In reality, newsrooms are collapsing, mass layoffs are commonplace, and digital journalism has been at the front of the line in terms of collapse. This law will only expedite the end to which we see these digital media outlets by forcing them to cut off the people producing their content. If a digital outlet can't afford to hire someone and now they can not legally buy from third parties then they will struggle to produce content, make no money, and eventually collapse. This law is only in California so it mostly affects CA based writers and freelancers, but if this mentality around gig economy jobs continues it could spell the end for the modern digital news industry. Some argue this could be a good thing, bringing the end of content mills and fake news. But it could also cause journalists to become more desperate and escalate the hyperbolic, hyperpartisan, and far left activist journalism content leading to a worse political divide. As we have seen with the Veritas leaks, not even CNN is safe from the hyperpartisan nature of news. Outrage rules all and the culture war is an easy outrage generator.

Huffington Post Was Just Put On The Chopping Block, Layoffs Announced At Leftist Media Oct 19, 2019

Show notes

Huffington Post Was Just Put On The Chopping Block, Layoffs Announced At Leftist Media. Verizon has been seeking to sell off the Huffington Post, a move which will likely result in layoffs regardless of the result. The company is seeking to slim down its digital media business at a time when many media companies are facing shortfalls, budget cuts, and layoffs. CNN, VICE, Buzzfeed, Verizon, Disney and more have faced declining viewership, ratings, and revenues for the past few years and this is just another trend is the downfall of leftist and far left digital media. At the same time conservative media seems to be seeing a resurgence with Fox News doing particularly well in growth and ratings. This all follows a trend of companies basically following "get woke go broke" as a business plan. Vice for instance used to be edgey and taboo but now follows the establishment political orthodoxy. Not too long after getting woke they started to go broke. Vice News sadly has merged with Viceland after being canceled on HBO. The trend of collapsing leftist media will likely continue and with it the political push toward the far left. It could be possible that the exploitation of social justice narratives persists or that it fades with the passing of social justice digital media.

Mark Zuckerberg Just DEFENDED Donald Trump?! Says Facebook Will Uphold FREE SPEECH, Ok Prove it Mark Oct 18, 2019

Show notes

Mark Zuckerberg Just DEFENDED Donald Trump?! Says Facebook Will Uphold FREE SPEECH, Ok Prove it Mark. Democrat Kamala Harris has made repeated demands that Trump be banned form twitter. Elizabeth Warren has slammed Mark Zuckerberg and Facebook for allowing ads they believe are false. Both of these demands are anti free speech and quite authoritarian. To call on unelected tech billionaires to police and censor speech is terrifying. But the most unlikely of defenders emerged, Mark Zuckerberg himself. While it was a harder defense of free speech and a refusal to intervene in politics I think this is the result of a combination of bad news cycles facebook is facing. With accusations they allowed interference in the 2016 presidential election it seems mark is reticent to intervene in any political capacity at this point. Not only that but Mark was recently under fire from the far left over his meeting with some conservatives, something that is totally normal for almost every business. It still stands to be see if Mark will unban those he previously removed and until then I will hold total judgement. But so long as Mark is at least making a statement I will give him the respect he deserves in this moment. Lets see actions Mark, until then I won't believe youre taking a genuine stand against social media censorship.

CNN Ratings Hit NEW LOW Amid Leaks Proving They Push Fake News About Trump Oct 17, 2019

Show notes

CNN Ratings Hit NEW LOW Amid Leaks Proving They Push Fake News About Trump. The ratings are in and they are bad. CNN Drew a peak of just over 8 million viewers for the Democratic Debates and while that is a large number it is down nearly 50% from the first debate and down several million from the previous debate. But CNN ratings have been doing poorly for some time. In fact they may have been actually helped by CNN's President's Trump obsession. According to new leaks from Project Veritas, James O'Keefe, and a whistleblower, since Zucker took over he has demanded that everything be 'All Trump All the Time.' While many of us suspected that the network was pushing far left politics and anti Trump rhetoric on purpose for some time these leaks show us definitive proof that the president of CNN believes complete and absurd fake news and demands his staff push these stories onto the public. While the Trump bump may have helped CNN in the past people are experiencing Trump fatigue and tuning out. The drop in ratings is partly due to the non stop wall to wall coverage of every minor detail in Trump's life. In the end the exhausted public tunes out or becomes annoyed giving conservatives and republicans a boost. Democrats actually start believing the fake news themselves and in the end get driven far left and end up out of touch with most Americans. A new report shows Trump handily winning in 2020 and these may be contributing factors.

Youtube Is Trying To FORCE Me To Social Engineer YOU, This Affects Almost ALL Political Channels Oct 16, 2019

Show notes

Youtube Is Trying To FORCE Me To Social Engineer YOU, This Affects Almost ALL Political Channels. Yesterday Youtube suppressed my video and I don't know why, I can only speculate. But the video was critical of the far left and Democrats and made reference to a certain undercover reporting group. But the message they sent me was clear. This subject, or combination is out of bounds. If you talk about these things you will make no money and no one will see your video. For me it was a challenge and I reject the premise outright. I will talk about what must be talked about. But the truth is that my content is rather tepid in the first place. Most of the videos and commentary I produce is just fine. In this moment, however, Youtube gave me a glimpse of how bad it really is. Think of it like a casino, the house always wins. So long as they win 51% of the time they win all of the time. Over a long enough period of time they make money. Now think about the whole of Youtube, who can succeed, what kind of content will be monetized, and we can see the layers. Over a long enough period of time we know that certain ideas will cease to exist or be seen, certain creators will be banned or go broke. Youtube, twitter, and Facebook have already stated they support far left and social justice based rules, they already have shown us that they will bend at the behest of fake news and far left wing media. Social media censorship is reaching a point of critical mass that will shape our political world for generations to come. Even now we see reports that the big social media companies will allow politicians to break the rules. This means that Incumbents will be allowed to speak freely but their challengers will not. The rules are being put in place so that we the creators fall in line to take the money and fame or we cease to exist at all. In the end the future will be shaped by massive multi national corporations with no allegiance to our country. Free speech will cease to exist and there will never be another Bernie Sanders or Donald Trump again. The establishment mass social engineering is happening right now and whether its intentional or not it will cause major problems for democracy.

Democrat DEFENDS Far left Incitement After HQ Vandalized By Antifa Oct 15, 2019

Show notes

Democrat DEFENDS Far left Incitement After HQ Vandalized By Antifa. Far Left antifa types vandalized the democratic HQ in Portland and even included language that I cannot repeat on Youtube. You would think overt incitement would be the line for Democrats but for some reason the executive director of the Oregon Democrats has instead defended Antifa saying "it's just paint." Far leftists vandalized the Democratic Party building, the building had no involvement in any of the circumstances pertaining to the prior incident. Why won't Democrats and mainstream media condemn the far left when they engage in this behavior? CNN for instance has had guests and their own personalities defend Antifa on several occasions. As long as CNN provides cover for these far leftists people will be afraid to speak out fearing the consequences of far left escalation as well as media smears. If CNN and others continue to recycle their own propaganda these groups will never be called out This in turn will create a political class in the Democratic party catering to what they think is normal but is really just a fringe group that no one will call out. When major news outlets consume their own fake news it will only get worse.

CNN Whistleblower EXPOSES Hard Proof Of Networks Anti-Trump Bias, Project Veritas Reports Oct 14, 2019

Show notes

CNN Whistleblower EXPOSES Hard Proof Of Networks Anti-Trump Bias, Project Veritas Reports. James O'Keefe of Project Veritas has released a new expose this time on CNN. A whistleblower who has worked with the company for over two years agreed to secretly film in order to expose the bias against the President and conservatives. In the expose we can see several employees discussing their disdain and concerns over CNN's political bias, violation of journalist integrity, and obsession with trump. While many of us knew that CNN was biased for obvious reasons they continue to deny that they are anything but objective reporters. But in the video hard proof exposes Jeff Zucker, the president of CNN claiming that a legitimate report from Politico is fake news. These outlets are consuming their own biased spin to the point of thinking their own actually reporting is fake news. This results in an even more twisted and broken world view. Democrats and the far left, being more likely to trust media, end up with the same warped view of reality. That is not to say republicans and conservatives don't end up believing fake news too, it just means that those who rely on large news institutions are increasingly being fed fake news. In the end we see that CNN is not just driven by ratings but also the ideological drive and perhaps guilt of helping to create Trump by giving him non stop press. But sadly we see the result, the obsession continues much to the chagrin of CNN's own employees

Trump Is WINNING Over The "Never Trumpers," Democrats And Media Continue Downward Spiral Oct 13, 2019

Show notes

Trump Is WINNING Over The "Never Trumpers," Democrats And Media Continue Downward Spiral. Many Republicans vowed to never support the president but now finding themselves doing just that. In a story from the New York Times they document how most of the prominent conservatives opposing Trump have now become some of his most ardent defenders and they cite many reasons why. But other stories and trends may shine a light on this. Perhaps Donald Trump is "not that bad," well at least relative to what the Democrats are offering. IN an Op-ed a never Trumper goes into detail about how leftists and Democrats are pushing unpopular ideas or ideas that already guarantee the Democrat vote. He argues that they are not focusing on the core issue of defeating Trump. I hear that. I've been saying the same thing the entire time. Democrats have not learned their lesson from 2016 and continue to try and court woke twitter and social justice feminists in order to win. But win what? The college primary vote and woke Twitter? There are even stories from Democrats saying they will actually vote Trump because of the absurd far left push from the Democratic Party and I completely understand that sentiment. You don't have to support the president but it would be prudent to calm down, talk policy, engage with civility, and work towards a solution for all of us. Perhaps due to the lack of civility we see people realizing that while "orange man bad" may be true to some extent he is certainly not as bad as the media portrays him. Impeachment is just another push in Democrats refusing to talk policy and instead focusing on minutia and its resulting in people bowing out of politics because, well, to be honest I think we are all sick of democrats crying wolf.
