Media Outraged Over Trump's Tweets, Ignores Bernie Sanders Similar Statements. Over the past week we have been embroiled in another Donald Trump Tweet story pertaining to Elijah Cummings district in Baltimore and we know the media loves running wall to wall press about Trump's tweets. Interestingly, however, Bernie Sanders has similar tweets and statements which never caught the ire of the media and the left. Perhaps this is because Trump is much more bombastic and aggressive, but even if that were true, the media, left, and far left are now arguing about the substance of the tweet and not the character.| If Bernie and Trump both say Baltimore is bad for many reasons then why would the media ignore Bernie's presumably incorrect assessment but call out trump for being wrong? To me this shows the clear bias against the president but mostly it shows the desire for the coveted 'Trump Bump.' The media knows they get a ratings boost when they complain about the president so they take any opportunity to go after him, even if they know its a distraction from bigger issues, even if they know Trump is playing them and they are taking the bait.

Trump Has Won The Supreme Court Ruling On Border Wall Construction. The Supreme Court ruled 5-4 that the groups suing President Trump over the border wall lacked proper standing and have removed a block allowing the wall to continue during further litigation. This is a major victory for the Trump administration and a defeat for Democrats and the organizations that filed the initial suit. While Trump and republicans may have won this round, the ruling on standing will not prevent others from suing and winning. 20 states have filed suit and the House has a suit currently awaiting appeal. The wall may start soon but the battle is far from over. Additionally Trump has signed an agreement with Guatemala to restrict asylum seekers from coming to the US. IN a rather convenient turn however Trump tweeted something that made the left and Democrats angry resulting in coverage of Trump's tweets instead of his latest policy moves. Like clockwork Trump has the democrats and far left marching to his drum and focusing on his character, something they can't change.

Democrats Accused Of Exploiting Campaign Staff, Hypocrisy Over Low And Even NO Pay For Staff. The latest in the democratic party's labor disputes is Elizabeth Warren who is accused of exploiting low level staff into working for free. We also have another story about how Democrats are using deceptive accounting techniques to appear richer on paper and delaying pay to campaign staff in order to do it. Lastly, Bernie Sanders is accused of firing three staff members for legal organizing practices. The take away is clear, Democrats from centrist moderate, to far left are seen as hypocrites for trying to look good while exploiting or underpaying their staff. As a moderate what do we do? DO we ignore this because "orange man bad?" or do we speak up and demand a better party? If Warren and Sanders are in on the take then what do we really have? Who do we vote for? It seems that from labor to social justice these politicians simply seek to maximize their returns by saying what they think people want to hear. But when it comes time to take action they are exposed as hypocrites. Support the show (http://timcast.com/donate) Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Mueller Testimony A DISASTER For Democrats, "Trump Must Be Gloating In Ecstasy." That last quote from Michael Moore. That's right, progressive activist and filmmaker Michael Moore and even Bill Maher have come out saying the Democrats have lost this one. Robert Mueller revealed no new information for the most part except one extremely bad bit in information. Mueller did NOT investigate the origins of the RussiaGate hoax saying that it was outside his purview. While its not a perfect victory for Trump, he does come out as the clear winner in this battle as Democrats are consistently off message. Instead of Democrats challenging Trump and Republicans on key issues like health care, immigration, and the economy they become obsessed with overturning their 2016 defeat. This will certainly help Trump as it keeps them not only off message but it keeps the far left democrats front and center.

Google Employee EXPOSES Political Bias Amid Anti-Trust Announcement. Project Veritas' latest interview brings a senior google engineer on the record about the political bias at the company. This provides an interesting window into the real problems we are facing in regard to the big tech monopolies. This comes at the same time as the DOJ announces a major anti trust probe into four big tech companies relating to how to they operate and any anti-competitive practices. The issues with political bias in these companies is that it leads to conservative censorship and market interference. FOr instance the recent banning of the Gab app for content violations even though the app contained no content at all. Big tech and social media bias is obvious to those that are outside the bubble. While far left, leftist, and social justice activists routinely try to deny that the evidence is real it was actually the left wing Gizmodo that first broke the story in 2016.

Trump Won, Sees Record High Approval Even AFTER Offensive Tweets. Trump was heavily criticized over offensive tweets he published on July 14th by almost everyone outside his base. The left, the right, and obviously the far left were very critical. Many saw Trump's plan to force Democrats to rally around the far left progressives known as "The Squad." Ilhan Omar and Ocasio-Cortez are now some of the most notable democrats as per Trump's plan. But many thought it would be a Pyrrhic victory and he would face recoil. Instead, Trump is seeing a record high approval rating even after the offensive tweets. It seems that not only to many Americans not care about the rhetoric and accusations but that many actually liked Trump's tweets increasing his approval rating. In the end Trump has won. Approval rating up, and far left progressive democrats are front and center. Support the show (http://timcast.com/donate) Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Democrats Are Losing The Immigration Debate As Trump Escalates Deportations. A Liberal think tank has warned that Democrats are losing the war on media messaging by appearing soft on enforcement. More importantly the Democrats seem to be at odds with their own party even 4 years ago under Obama. By undermining Obama's positions Democrats not only look weak but hypocritical. While much of this is fueled far the far left encroaching on the Democratic party it can mostly be attributed to a lack of real charisma and leadership on the Democratic side. Meanwhile Trump is rapidly escalating deportation and restricting new asylum claims. However there is still risk to Trump as his rhetoric on the "the squad," or Ocasio-Cortez and Ilhan omars group, has gotten too hot for the "moral market" watchers who may turn on Trump come 2020.

Almost Every Metric Predicting Trump 2020 Victory, RNC Raises DOUBLE What Democrats Raise. Democrats are getting absolutely crushed in terms of fundraising and Trump continues to dominate and control the media. The RNC and Trump have raised more than double what the democratic party has raised in May and in June. While polls suggest Trump will lose to many of the 2020 Democrats it just seems unlikely based on how wrong the polls were in 2016 combined with the massive grassroots fundraising accomplished by republicans. Trump's presumed strategy of propping up far left and socialist democrats, known as "The Squad," also seems to be working. He has knocked Democrats off their game and they no longer talk about real issues. Instead they talk about naughty words and outrage. Ilhan Omar currently sits at a 9% favorability in swing states and Trump knows putting her front and center will give him a huge advantage. In order to win Democrats need a strong message for American voters but instead campaign on behalf of non citizens and some have literally campaigned in Mexico. This is all good news for Trump. If the democrats can't get back on message than they can't hope to out fund raise the republicans. Support the show (http://timcast.com/donate) Learn more about your ad choices.

The Left Is Embracing Fascistic Ideology, Vox Entertains "Socialist Nationalism." Perhaps Vox just made a silly gaffe in suggesting that "Socialist Nationalism" could work, or perhaps they were seriously suggesting that we try what the Germans did, which would be insane. While the gaffe is funny the encroaching fascistic tactics and ideology is not. While far left groups tend not to be nationalist themselves they do endorse a global community perspective which is not to far off from what we saw in WW 2. 2020 Democrats have even been embracing some of the more fringe ideological beliefs which can only lead in one direction. While social justice is a good thing to strive for the people who end up pushing the hardest use authoritarian means to get what they want. In the end they adopt a world view of "no truth only power" where they will call everything offensive in an effort to advantage or power. Our society seems to know when the right has gone too far but can't seem to be at all concerned when the left goes too far. If we don't actively call out the ever encroaching left wing identitarianism then nothing will stop it. Support the show (http://timcast.com/donate) Learn more about your ad choices.

Bernie Sanders Campaign Staff Demand $15 Minimum, Some Quit Over Low Wages. House Democrats recently passed a $15 minimum wage bill nationally and conflicting reports say that we could lose up to 1.3 Million jobs or not lose any jobs at all. One of the biggest proponents of a federal $15 minimum is Bernie Sanders who is now caught in a conundrum over his own staffs pay. Some staffers are reportedly quitting over not receiving a "living wage" many are saying that the long hours result in only getting 11-13$ an hour. With the passing of the federal bill moderate and even far left democrats agree on increasing the minimum, the question that arises is why isn't Bernie putting his money where his mouth is? Minimum wage increases are not even socialist or far left policy wise, it is a general left wing position to increase base pay to require employers to pay more. They argue without government mandate they won't and perhaps there is no better example than Bernie Sanders who apparently doesn't even pay his own staff $15 Republicans on the other hand disagree so I doubt we will see anything other than conservatives calling out the hypocrisy of the Sanders camp, though I think Bernie and his campaign will likely rectify the situation quickly. The reality is that this story reveals how complicated it is to negotiate wages. Staff will always want more and Employers will always want to pay less.
