Trump vs Hillary on economics and tax plans

Do Issues Matter Anymore? Trump v Hillary on the Economy

By Dr Mark | October 15, 2016 | Comments 0 Comment

Show Summary: In the era of corrupt media, do real issues matter any more? Or actions for that matter. All you need is what someone says rather than actual actions. Or things like economic and tax plans. Want proof? Quick! When was the last time you heard someone in the mainstream media actually mention Hillary’s tax plan?

You would think that if Obamacare is such a great program, the economy should be humming along—no tinkering needed. But just like Obamacare was going to make health care more affordable (who’s got the swamp land for sale on this one?) Wikileaks has exposed Hillary’s beliefs that by expanding programs like Food Stamps it will help “fix the economy” because it will give families more money to spend. Yes, she actually said this—to a bunch of bankers behind closed doors. Hillary’s tax plan and economic plan reveals an overwhelming foundational philosophy to tax, tax, tax. If Obamacare is an example of an economic policy and expansion of government programs that has increased taxation (as the Supreme Court termed it), Hillary’s economic policies will be even bigger and more expensive.

If you think your health care is already getting to be extremely expensive, just wait until you open your tax bill a year after Hillary is in office. And you won’t even escape it by dying because she wants to slap a 65% death (penalty) tax, which will destroy family-owned businesses and farms.

But you may not have heard about any of this—the Wikileaks or dire consequences of Hillary’s tax plans. In fact, Fox News reported that on Thursday evening news coverage for ABC, CBS, and NBC , 8 minutes per station was spent on Trump scandals with only 20 seconds spent on covering WikiLeaks (with one station not carrying it all), a scandal which has an actual document trail; tens of thousands of documents. They’re not reporting the truth; they are reporting their agenda.

This week we turn away from the scandals and focus on policy—actions over words. I Spy will talk with Jonathan Williams from ALEC who has just completed a report on the unfunded pension liabilities faced by every state. We discuss the ticking time bomb, especially in Oregon, over the massive pay back states have with no money to pay it back. Consider this: in just two years the total amount of states unfunded liabilities has grown more than 900 Billion Dollars. Almost a trillion dollars on top of what was owed in just two short years. And then consider what the MSM’s focus has been on, Trump’s alleged scandals.

This week, we compare Hillary’s and Trump’s tax and economic plans and even how their plans can impact the looming pile of debt at the state levels. Be sure to tune in to hear some solutions and find out how one candidate’s plan just may give us a chance to dig our way out of this monstrous hole.

Show Summary: Part II in our continuing series of shows on Hillary Clinton — doing the work that the mainstream media refuses to do: look at her actions. In this episode, we look at her immigration policies and positions and compare those to Donald Trump. They are vastly different. So much for the “Never Trump” and their belief Hillary and Trump are one and the same. Then we will check in with bestselling author, Scott McEwen, on more Hillary actions: her emails that prove she was running the State Department as pay for play, running guns to Syrian (i.e., arming ISIS), and what about those Clinton hit squads?

As a continuation of our look into Hillary’s actions versus her words, we found this week that the amount of stories on her were so overwhelming it was almost difficult to track all of her continuing scandals and new problems.

One of the more impressive about-faces, so typical of lifetime politician, was her “new” position on TPP. For someone who had helped craft the draconian legislation she suddenly turns about face and is now against its implementation. This is only after Trump put the media spotlight on the job bleed off that would take place if it were ever implemented. Her words were very hollow.

Hillary Clinton’s Reckless Immigration Policies

The same occurs with her words on immigration. Compared to her words in 2003 on immigration, she was more of an immigration hawk than Ted Cruz to where she is today it’s the US doesn’t need borders. Her flip flops on this issue have been so bad that in 2015 the NY Post to wrote this “The question isn’t whether she believed what she said before, or even whether she believes what she’s saying now. It’s whether she really believes anything at all.” (Hillary Clinton’s flip-flops on immigration)

So, on this week’s show we do a compare and contrast of Hillary’s actions versus her words. To kick off the show Mark Anderson will walk you through Hillary’s immigration plans and how they compare to Trump’s. Then we talk with Scott McEwen, and delve into the recent e-mails that disclose so much of Hillary’s actions. We even talk about the rumored hit squad and the 50 deaths of Hillary’s inner circle of who at one time were close to her.

Hillary Clinton Exposed

Show Summary: Hillary Clinton exposed (God help us). We looked at the roots of her most-recent scandal: the hack into the DNC’s, DCCC’s (Democrat Congressional Campaign Committee), and Hillary’s own campaign’s emails. Next week we’ll continue our look at what a Hillary Clinton administration would look like—especially her immigration policies and how they are so vastly different from Donald Trump’s policies. So much for the whole “lesser of two evils” meme. This is the first in a series of shows between now and the election that will put Hillary under the microscope. You know, because the mainstream media is so much more interested in what Trump said than what Hillary actually did.

Original Air Dates: Aug. 6, 7, and 8, 2016 | Guests: James Hirsen & William Gheen

Have you ever seen a candidate so completely disappear the week after their convention? Such is the case with Hillary, the Invisible Woman. A week after her convention, she’s nearly completely disappeared from news coverage. Instead, the media is apoplectic in its coverage of something Donald Trump might have said or thought or wondered about.

Unlike the rest of the media, we are beginning a series of shows that are going to focus on Hillary’s actions. Instead of looking at some “horrible” thing that Donald Trump might or might not have said, we’re going to be looking at what Hillary Clinton has actually done. This week it starts with a look at her hacked emails. This is not her private server it’s the hacking of her emails and the security breech they caused for three different Democrat organizations. And then we’ll take a look at her secret weapon for amnesty: Paul Ryan. Yes, Paul Ryan the Republican Speaker of the House.

We start off with James Hirsen, author of Tales from the Left Coast: True Stories of Hollywood Stars and their Outrageous Politics, and discuss his fascinating, in-depth article on the multiple e-mail hacks Hillary caused — all because she wanted to keep her private emails out of the public eye. Tune in to hear how she refused help and how doing so exposed three Democrat organizations and countless others. Clearly, she’s guarding her private e-mails, especially the Clinton Foundation emails, as if they were state secrets. But have they been breached?

Then we turn to William Gheen of ALIPAC (Americans for Legal Immigration), who is very focused on the Paul Ryan campaign and Ryan’s support for Hillary’s immigration plan. Don’t miss what Clinton’s VP pick, Time Kaine, said on Spanish-language Telemundo about Paul Ryan and how he is Hillary’s secret weapon to push her open border plan through Congress.

Of course none of this information makes it into Paul Ryan’s campaign ads. Instead he claims he’s for “secure borders” despite fully funding Obama’s refugee and illegal immigrant programs. Ryan has even said he’ll block Trump’s immigration reforms. ALIPAC is going all out to defeat Ryan and his blatant lies—tune in to hear the full extent of them. Paul Ryan’s primary is this Tuesday.

Show Summary: Republican National Convention wraps up and a courageous Black man, Burgess Owens, speaks out against the horrific damage liberal ideology has done to the Black community

Never miss a show! Check out our network of stations. Not in Oregon? All Stations Stream Live!

Original Air Dates: June 23 & 24, 2016 | Burgess Owens & Brendan Kirby

Burgess Owens knows what it takes to be successful. He had a standout career in the NFL with the Jets before winning the Super Bowl with the Oakland Raiders in 1980. He has made his life’s mission to throw off the shackles of liberal ideology that has destroyed the once-proud Black communities he grew up in. Growing up in the South he talks about how he was raised to understand duty and honor of his youth and how that mindset has been corrupted by many in the Black community due to outside influences and organizations. His new book, Liberalism or How to Turn Good Men into Whiners, Weenies and Wimps connects the ties between socialism and its infiltration and impact on the Black communities around the nation.

Tune in to hear his powerful story and to find out the origins of the NAACP, its real purpose, and how it and organizations like it have wrought devastation on the people it was supposedly designed to help but instead has done little more than keep the black community emotionally enslaved.

Then we turn our attention to this week’s big political story, the RNC convention. Brendan Kirby, Senior Political Writer for Laura Ingraham’s LifeZette, was at the convention all week and has “boots on the ground” insights for all of the highs and lows of the week. What were the delegate’s reaction to the rules committee? How did they respond as events unfolded at convention? Was their unity or not?

Brendan gives us his first-hand information on Ted Cruz’s speech, the delegates’ reactions, and the morning-after reaction by his political supporters. And what about those 30,000 protesters that were supposed to show up? We discuss the Trump family’s impact and what they’ve accomplished to move Donald Trump’s message into new areas for the GOP. And don’t miss the impact of Trump’s acceptance speech and what it was like to be there on the convention floor. Unity at last? Or will liberalism continue to infect the nation?

Next week Part II of our show with Kamal Saleem, a former cultural jihadist: How moderate Muslims are converted to become radical Islamic terrorists.

Refusal to endorse galvanized everyone against Ted, hands Trump another win

by Mark Anderson | Updated 21 Jul 2016 at 10:04 AM

Judging from my Twitter feed, most people equated Ted Cruz’s speech at the Republican National Convention to setting off his political suicide vest on stage. Leading up to the speech, pundits everywhere reminded people that at the end of the bitter 1976 campaign, Reagan gave a brilliant speech, one of his best of all time — but in the end, he endorsed Ford.

But it wasn’t just his words. It was Reagan’s selflessness; his greatness, his devotion, his call to duty and putting country first that rang so true in the hearts and minds of the delegates — and made him the favorite for 1980.

cultural jihad in America and its fingerprints in events like the Dallas shooting

The Fingerprints of Cultural Jihad

By Dr Mark | July 8, 2016 | Comments 0 Comment

Podcast: Play in new window | Download

Show Summary: Kamal Saleem, a former cultural jihadist, explains how events like the Orlando shooting and Dallas bear the fingerprints of jihad and the radical elements of Islam. (Cultural jihad is, just as it sounds, a jihad against American culture, Western ideology, liberty and freedom, and of course Christianity.) Foreign nations are funding fundamental Islamic schools; Obama’s signals to jihadists, and much more. Note: This is Part I of a two-part show.

Air Dates: July 9 & 10, 2016 | Kamal Saleem

We welcome back Kamal Saleem, a former Muslim and cultural jihadist for a two-part show on the continuing spread of Islamic terrorism. Recruited by the Muslim Brotherhood he was sent to training camps starting at the young age of 7, to learn to kill “infidels” and cultural infiltration techniques. Commissioned by a member of the Saudi royal family in the 1980’s he came to America to destroy our western civilization, but instead due to a chance car accident, where he was helped through recovery by the very people he’d been sent to destroy, he converted to Christianity. Kamal is now president of Koome Ministries, the mission of which is to “see Ishmael redeemed.”

On this week’s show, you’ll learn how cultural jihadists and their techniques are inciting anger and divisiveness, terrorizing Americans, and subverting our culture and unique heritage, through the acts of violence and far more subtle techniques.

Kamal picks apart the Orlando shooter and how his murder-spree was a prime example of how the Islamic holy month of Ramadan played an important role in his decision to unleash horror in Orlando, in a fulfillment of Islamic beliefs. We also discuss the horrendous Dallas killings of so many police officers. How does this tie into the jihadists’ desires to incite anger and divisiveness? Is this the type of fear and dissent being spread by cultural jihad? Is Obama actually fanning the flames of cultural jihadists’ goals?

And don’t miss how one foreign country is setting up schools for Islamists right here in America – and how much U.S. taxpayers are paying for them!

Next week Part II: How moderate Muslims are converted to become radical Islamic terrorists.

Show Summary: Every true American patriot knows that we are always one generation away from losing our freedoms. But Obama’s and the Left’s continuous attacks on America are working.

Original Air Dates: June 18 & 19, 2016 | Curtis Bowers & Jeff Schwilk

As the presidential elections continue, tensions are brewing within our political leadership circles that shed light on their intense desire to hold onto power. Power that doesn’t translate to keeping American’s safe. American leadership seem to feel that other cultures are more valuable than our own. That uttering the words “radical Islamic terrorists” is unfair to say, as Islamic terrorists focus on destroying America by exploiting our current immigration policies.

These same American leaders point to Europe, as the path of finding our values, as we, on the American shores watch Europe be swallowed up by mass groups of refugees who believe Sharia Law outweighs their host countries’ own laws. Once again, America is the problem. Our Constitutionally guaranteed laws are the problem.

This week we examine from two different vantage points how America is under attack and the breakdown of our American leadership on keeping us safe. The first comes from Curtis Bowers, with a new film Agenda 2: Masters of Deceit.

His first film Agenda: Grinding Down America focused on the history of how communism has gotten into every level of government. With his new film, he looks at the current situations and the places they have infiltrated — including evangelical churches. Curtis will be touring Oregon from June 20^th thru the 25^th showing his film with a Q & A afterwards. We’ll have showings times and places on I Spy’s webpage.

Our next guest is Jeff Schwilk, a San Diego-based border security expert who served over 20 years in the US Marine Corps as a Master Sergeant and senior intelligence chief. He helped plan the 1st Marine Division’s assault on Baghdad and oversaw the generation of hundreds of intelligence reports pertinent to the Iraq War and the War on Terror.

Now retired, Jeff has founded San Diegans for Secure Borders Coalition, and on our show walks us through the flood that is occurring on our southern borders. We discuss the massive security hole this presents, home-grown terrorists, and attacks on our culture. Listen to find out the real conditions for those living close to our southern border as our American leadership turns a willfully blind eye.

List of USA Attendees to Bilderberg 2016

By Dr Mark | June 7, 2016 | Comments 0 Comment

The following is a list of USA attendees to Bilderberg 2016. Some will be no surprise at all (Sen. Lindsey Graham) but take note of the attendees from the mass media. They’re there as attendees and representatives to support and promote the effort of supreme globalism, to usurp America’s and all countries’ sovereignty.

While Bilderberg has garnered conspiracy-theory status, it’s rather odd—don’t you think—that if the elite are meeting just to “foster dialogue” then why is whatever dialogue happens secret?

According to author Daniel Estulin, the Bilderberg Group is an annual meeting of the world’s elite and most powerful to “debate the future of the world.” Regular attendees include “top figures from the Council on Foreign Relations (CFR), IMF, World Bank, Trilateral Commission… the Federal Reserve, [and the] Bank of England.”

Show Summary: Yes, it’s all politics this week — but wait! There’s more! We talk over some key issues near and dear to Donald Trump’s campaign with Brendan Kirby, political editor of Lifezette: Trump converting Ds to Rs, illegal immigration, and dismantling bloated, ineffective federal agencies—like the TSA. Then we talk with Michael Reagan, author, speaker, columnist, and the oldest son of Ronald Reagan, about his newest book, “Lessons my Father Taught Me,” and hear about some lessons Reagan might give Trump.

We have a very fun show for you this week! Politics, lessons from Reagan, and lots more.

We’ll kick things off with Brendan Kirby, a senior political reporter for LifeZette, Laura Ingraham’s news, life, and pop-culture site (think life + gazette). Brendan had three timely and interesting articles that directly tie in with Trump’s election, such as all those Democrats who are moving to Republicans—does this really put blue states in play? The flood of illegal immigrants in the past year—especially concerning on the heels of the riots in Southern California and the new report of smugglers bringing Middle East terrorists across America’s southern border. We also discuss bloated government agencies like the TSA and the long lines at airports. We’ll get a peek privatization of airport security.

Lessons Reagan might give Trump

Then we welcome bestselling author, and oldest son of Ronald Reagan, Michael Reagan who has a new book out Lessons My Father Taught Me. This is a very intriguing look into the life lessons President Reagan passed on to his son, including many sneak peeks into Reagan’s life: raising his children, Reagan’s experience with his own father, Jack, and much more.

Tune in to learn who was really behind Ronald Reagan losing his job as host of the popular “General Electric Theater” and the pressure brought on GE to cut Reagan loose—but also how Reagan turned a failure into a success. And of course we just couldn’t let Michael Reagan go without hearing his thoughts on today’s politics, Trump’s candidacy, lessons Reagan would want to pass on to the Republican candidate, and how the Republican party is no longer the party of Reagan.

Show Summary: It’s Memorial Day Weekend! Did you know this national holiday was anything but unifying when it first began as “Decoration Day?” We get the details, the history of Memorial Day, and some fun stories. Speaking of unifying, the NY Conservative Party, which, as you can imagine had a lot of Cruz supporters. So how did they come around to endorsing Donald Trump for president? Tune in Saturday or Sunday to hear!

This weekend is Memorial Day. While Americans unite in our thanks to our fallen heroes, it turns out that Memorial Day didn’t start out as unifying at all.

In America today, it seems as if we’re constantly divided, perhaps because we are in a constant state of re-election and campaigning. It used to be that when people got elected, we’d forget about politics for a couple years and expect them to just go in and do their jobs. But it’s not that way anymore. Everything is political because so much is tied to big government, whether it’s business or environmental or health care or what have you.

So with this constant state of campaigning—including our current President’s messaging that so often tied to something political—issues and people can get things ramped up and things can turn ugly during a primary season.

Gettysburg 50th Anniversary — Old foes unite at Gettysburg 50th. Won’t it be nice when Trump and Cruz Supporters unite?

With the primaries basically over, and as the angry-emotional dust settles, we now have to get down to the business of unifying our party and our country. And so I Spy searches for the answers and examples of how that happens.

Our first guest, Michael Long, Chairman of the New York Conservative Party, gives us the first set of answers regarding how as a party they co-endorsed, with the Republican Party, Trump as their candidate. How did this happen? Their party had Cruz supporters, but now they came out “overwhelmingly” to support the Trump endorsement. Listen to hear how that happened and find out his thoughts of what he expects a Trump Presidency to look like and how it could be conservative even if Trump is not the conservative they’d like—and how it will benefit all America.

Then we turn to scholar Dr. Bonner Cohen to take us through the founding and origination of Memorial Day. We discuss how divided our country was right after the Civil War when Memorial Day was first called “Declaration Day” for the fallen Union soldiers. Listen to hear Dr. Cohen walk us through the history of Memorial Day, some fascinating stories surrounding Memorial Day, and how it’s become a holiday that unites all Americans.
