(This post may contain disputed claims. We make no assertions as to the validity of the information presented by our Opinion Columnist. We are an opinion blog, not a traditional news outlet, and this post should be treated as such. Enjoy.)John James, the rising star in Michigan’s senatorial race, was trailing far leftist Senator Debbie Stabenow. Or that is what the polls said, until yesterday, when the pro-Trump veteran and businessman got a sick phone call. Reporter Brenda Battel was caught in a “hot mic” situation, and now Americans who were voting for Democrats changed their minds after hearing what this reporter said. Everyone needs to hear this.
Today’s midterm is a toss-up. Anyone who claims they know for certain who will win or lose isn’t telling you the truth. But, there are those affecting this race who should not be, and that’s the mainstream media.
Starting around mid-day today, the corporate media (majority left-wing) will draw attention to pre-selected races they are confident will turn from Republican to Democrat control. The goal of this media effort will be to aid a surging “Democrat blue wave” and, as a consequence, attempt to influence the mid-west and western state turnout.
So beware. Immediately after the east coast polls close, the leftist media will start to push certain races hoping to cause GOP voters in the mid-west and west coast to become dejected. They did this in 2016. One of those races is a new superstar from Michigan, John James.
President Trump has endorsed James, and he is running on “the American dream.” John James said, “I have lived the American dream and I want to protect that dream for future generations. Everything I do is for faith and family. God and country, in that order, and service before self.”

James is challenging Obama-Hillary sycophant Debbie Stabenow, a pro-abortion leftist who wants globalism and socialism. Now, how can it be that anyone is voting for Stabenow? I’ll tell you how. It’s only because of the sick leftist media, who bombard the American people with fake news.
One of those reporters was caught red-handed, and some say it was an act of God. Why? Well, immediately, after the James campaign released the recording, many of the American people still on the fence woke up.
“Hi, my name is Brenda Battel, I’m a reporter with the Huron Daily Tribune in Bad Axe, Michigan,” Battel said in the voicemail.
“I’m looking to set up an appointment with Mr. James for some time on Wednesday for a phone interview regarding the election results,” Battel continued. “I’m probably going to send an email over to the [email protected] with some details. Um, if you’d like to call me back, my number is … extension … Thank you.”
Battel attempts to hang up after giving her number, but the phone remains connected.
“Man, if he beats her… Jesus! F*cking John James. That would suck! Whew, I don’t think it’s going to happen though,” Battel continued. But there’s more.
That “hot mic” moment is going viral and it has already affected the race for John James. According to a Democratic poll that came out late yesterday afternoon John James has closed the gap and is now about even with Stabenow. But the really big part of this poll is what it says about Independents.
It’s those on the fence, the Independents, who make or break an election. Now, the Independents are breaking for James, and this bodes very bad, for not only Stabenow but for the Democrats across the country. Michigan is a bellwether state. And if Independents are breaking for the GOP, this may be another shocking election like 2016.
BREAKING: 🚨🚨🚨
New poll: (From a democratic pollster)
Debbie Stabenow: 49%@JohnJamesMI: 47%
Among independents:
John James: 47%
Debbie Stabenow: 44%https://t.co/YMSeJHIg99 pic.twitter.com/8j7ZKZfQyF— The Reagan Battalion (@ReaganBattalion) November 5, 2018
As this story of this reporter goes nationwide, it causes those Independents to pause. It puts the spotlight on the leftist media as a whole. Americans don’t like cheaters, we want a fair fight. We don’t want to be manipulated by reporters who have an agenda to do anything to make a blue wave happen.
So, this story matters. It shows those on the fence that the media tips the scales toward the Democrats. And, it tells all Americans not to listen to them today, of all days. Remember, they will start early on to highlight races showing a Democrat beating a Republican and the chyrons on the TV will read: “Blue Wave is Here!”
But, we know better. Brenda Battel was fired, which is rich considering she is saying the exact thing MSNBC and CNN say every day on live TV. Let’s spread this information. If we reach only one voter and change their mind to reject the liberal agenda and vote red, then it will be worth it.
