Yes, President Trump, Google hates you!

On Aug. 1, I asked the rhetorical question: "Does Trump know how much Google hates him?"

He had criticized Facebook, Twitter and even Amazon before, but I wondered if the president understood just how much Google detests him and everything he stands for. If so, why was he silent about what is emerging as the single biggest threat to free speech, freedom of the press and freedom of religion in the U.S. today – the monopoly search engine that takes the "fake news" President Trump complains about and puts it on steroids with "fake algorithms" designed to serve up only what it wants you to see?

He answered my question 28 days later – unequivocally, in Trumpian style.

First came the tweets:

• Google search results for 'Trump News' shows only the viewing/reporting of Fake New Media. In other words, they have it RIGGED, for me & others, so that almost all stories & news is BAD. Fake CNN is prominent. Republican/Conservative & Fair Media is shut out. Illegal? 96% of results on 'Trump News' are from National Left-Wing Media, very dangerous.
• .... results on 'Trump News' are from National Left-Wing Media, very dangerous. Google & others are suppressing voices of Conservatives and hiding information and news that is good. They are controlling what we can & cannot see. This is a very serious situation-will be addressed!

But he was just getting warmed up.

When asked about his tweets in an Oval Office meeting, he had more to say: "I think Google is really taking advantage of a lot of people. And I think that is a very serious thing, and it is a very serious charge. I think what Google and what others are doing, if you look at what is going on with Twitter and if you look at what's going on in Facebook, they better be careful because you can't do that to people. You can't do it. I think that Google and Twitter and Facebook, they are really treading on very, very troubled territory, and they have to be careful. It is not fair to large portions of the population."

A Google spokesman hiding behind the cloak of anonymity made the following claims in response: "When users type queries into the Google Search bar, our goal is to make sure they receive the most relevant answers in a matter of seconds. Search is not used to set a political agenda, and we don't bias our results toward any political ideology. We continually work to improve Google Search and we never rank search results to manipulate political sentiment."

Yet Trump is right when he says, "they have it RIGGED." It's the absolute truth.

Everyone knows it – even the folks who LIKE it. Google represents a monopoly in filtering the news you see. Again, as I mentioned a month ago, you can't detect it in a single search. But where Google's partisan, leftist political stripes are revealed is on its news presentation page, "Google News." You don't have to go any further than that. That's where they taunt, deride, flog and fillet Trump mercilessly 24/7 – any time you want to check. Take particular note of the right-hand column where Google's favorite "truth police," like the leftist nobodies at Snopes.com and Politifact, tell you why Trump is wrong about everything he says and does.

It doesn't end there: Go to the top of the page and see which news agencies get the top billings on the stories of the day – the New York Times, Jeff Bezos' Washington Post, CNN and of course the far-left Huffington Post and Daily Beast for good measure. Where's the indy, alternative media? You'll have to go to page 12 or 44 or 97 to find any stories by WND.com, Breitbart.com or the DailyCaller.

It's a scam. It's rigged. Google is the biggest offender of all. And it's high time people recognized it. It is the de facto filter of what Americans see when it comes to politics and government.

The first objective of Google, YouTube, Facebook, Twitter, Amazon and Apple is to destroy the independent, alternative media, ensuring Americans get only a one-sided, partisan, leftist, fake, unbalanced presentation of information. The second goal is to make sure America never again has another election like 2016.

But you can stop their plan from succeeding. How? By supporting the independent, alternative media they are trying to strangle and starve.
