The parallels between Trump’s attacks on Google and his attacks on the NFL and why they are both winning issues for him.

Another week and another example of President Trump getting the press to talk about exactly what he wants them to talk about, and that’s the fact that social media and tech companies are stifling free speech. Of course, the media was quick to defend companies like Google and Facebook, not even realizing that if anyone other than Trump accused Google or Facebook for being evil, most people would agree. Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg just spent…

Google and Mastercard reached a secret deal to share customer’s debit card purchases.

Posted on September 2, 2018September 2, 2018 by James T

Many users on Reddit and other social media platforms have shared anecdotal stories about making a purchase in a store, and then immediately seeing ads for that item on their phone or computer. Most of these were written off as chance, but once again we see these “paranoid” stories are turning out to be true. Bloomberg recently reported that Google and Mastercard have had until now, a secret agreement to share customer’s purchases with each…

Kanye’s support for Trump isn’t important because he’s black. It’s important because Kanye has built a hugely successful career by being ahead of the trends. And he knows the #walkaway movement is the next big cultural trend.

Trump fan and Grammy-Award winning rapper Kanye West recently did a long interview with the WGCI 107.5 radio show in Chicago. Of course, the mainstream media tried to frame the interview as his apology for supporting Trump, when in reality he just apologized in case his slavery comments were not properly understood. But bigger than that, the media has ignored the second half of his interview where he doubled down on his support for Trump….

You can trust Google to be fair. They only censor results in China…..to gain favor with a communist regime…..which censors political dissidents and information. Oh wait……

Donald Trump turned his attention towards Google recently, accusing them of rigging their search results so that most searches about the President bring up left leaning news sites, and therefore negative stories about him. For any honest observer, this has been known for quite some time, but it was a relief to see the President take these companies to task. Of course, later that same day, the top story on Google News was an article…

Regardless of political or social leanings, everyone seems to agree that nothing in our modern culture makes sense anymore.

If there is one thing everyone seems to agree on it’s that nothing really seems to make sense anymore. Regardless of political affiliation, almost everyone believes we are living in the strangest of times. Often in meme and internet speak, this is referred to as the “timeline”. It seems all of this started about 5 years ago and has been accelerating in the last two years. It seems everyday we hear about a story or…

Last week there was much speculation as to what Mueller had up his sleeve. But Trump may have few surprises in store as well.

Posted on August 27, 2018September 14, 2018 by James T

Last week was full of news about Mueller’s latest tactics and what they may show us as to where he plans on taking his “Russia” investigation. Pundits on the left were quick to say that Mueller must have plenty up his sleeve that he has yet to reveal. And while I have no doubt Mueller has a few surprises left. Mainly going after Trump’s friends and family on things that are totally unrelated to the…

Mueller may be just getting started with his abuse of power. His next move will be to target Trump’s family.

Its become obvious to any reasonable observer the Mueller investigation into “Russian collusion” is not that about collusion at all. Instead, it is a scorched earth style attack on anyone related to Trump or anyone who has even been friends with Trump. Now, David Pecker, a long time friend of Trump is under attack from Mueller. David Pecker clearly has no relation to any Russian collusion, but he is a long time friend of Trump,…

This economic indicactor is almost never talked about in the media, but it effects everyone’s wallet more than anything else.

Posted on August 24, 2018August 27, 2018 by James T

When the economy is talked about in the mainstream media, you almost never hear about a very important indicator and one that really describes how the average person is doing in the current economic climate. That indicator is called the labor share, or the percentage of economic earning that is paid as wages. So basically, how much of GDP is going back to the workers as wages. This can be shown as a graph which…

How examining two simple arguments can show why Trump is indeed fighting against corruption and the deep state.

Posted on August 23, 2018August 23, 2018 by James T

Supporting Trump because you see him as a true outsider or not supporting Trump because you believe in the Russia collusion narrative really comes down to choosing between two simple yet opposing arguments; Argument 1: You believe that the high levels of government are filled with mostly good, honest people and somehow a bad and dishonest man (Trump) tricked his way in and the government is furiously trying to purge him. OR Argument 2: The…

Cohen plead guilty to a noncrime and he knew it. John Edwards was indicted for a similar charge and the Justice Department dropped the case.

Posted on August 22, 2018August 27, 2018 by James T

Today, former lawyer for Donald J. Trump plead guilty to 8 Federal charges involving payments to women who then signed non-disclosure agreements to not discuss their romantic involvement with Donald Trump. Cohen read his guilty plea in what sounded more like a hostage reading a prepared ransom demand by his captors. However, it appears very likely that Cohen plead guilty to a noncrime and he knows it. The reason he plead guilty to a crime…
