The media is biased towards Democrats and biased against Republicans. This isn’t conjecture. It is fact. The coverage of Governor Kay Ivey’s response to a gaggle of reporters has been “misreported” and weaponized by unscrupulous members of the media and political operatives, but I repeat myself. This video is terrible. I feel bad for Ivey. […]

From the announcement of Sen. John McCain’s terminal illness, the media realized that his willingness to “reach across the aisle” would be a weapon they could wield against  President Donald Trump and other Republicans. McCain was one who called out “fellow Republicans” for their more outlandish speech. You may have seen the following clip recently […]

7. Local elections are around the corner.

He trails Warren […]

I voted for Trump. If the 2016 election were today, I would vote for Trump again. If Trump is running in 2020 against Joe Biden or Bernie Sanders, I will gladly cast another vote for the current president of the United States of America. The economic and immigration policies the president has put in place […]

By focusing on this, they also […]
