1
00:00:00,160 --> 00:00:04,440
Speaker 1: Welcome to today's edition of the Rush Limbos Show podcast.

2
00:00:04,840 --> 00:00:09,440
Speaker 1: Welcome to today's edition of the Rush twenty four seventh podcast.

3
00:00:09,920 --> 00:00:12,520
Speaker 1: Hey gang, did you see this? In honor of the

4
00:00:12,720 --> 00:00:18,440
Speaker 1: one hundredth anniversary of the Chinese Communist Party, that country

5
00:00:18,640 --> 00:00:22,480
Speaker 1: is now rewriting its history to make the party look better.

6
00:00:23,320 --> 00:00:26,760
Speaker 1: And in a related story, last year, CNN celebrated forty

7
00:00:26,800 --> 00:00:28,760
Speaker 1: years on the air. I don't know if they're related.

8
00:00:28,800 --> 00:00:30,680
Speaker 1: I'm just I don't know what it is with people

9
00:00:30,680 --> 00:00:34,760
Speaker 1: rewriting history. They all have anniversaries the last couple of years. Hi, everybody,

10
00:00:34,840 --> 00:00:38,880
Speaker 1: Jason Lewis here. It's another edition of excellence in broadcasting,

11
00:00:38,960 --> 00:00:42,760
Speaker 1: another excursion into broadcast excellence with me as your guide,

12
00:00:42,800 --> 00:00:46,080
Speaker 1: your host, the talk show host formerly known as Congressman

13
00:00:46,200 --> 00:00:48,800
Speaker 1: Jason Lewis and l Rushbo will be with us the

14
00:00:48,840 --> 00:00:52,159
Speaker 1: whole three hours as we get his wit and wisdom

15
00:00:52,680 --> 00:00:57,000
Speaker 1: from years gone by but yet applicable to today. You know,

16
00:00:57,040 --> 00:00:59,560
Speaker 1: you've seen these summits time and time again, and the

17
00:00:59,600 --> 00:01:04,280
Speaker 1: press loves to make a huge deal about them. You know,

18
00:01:04,319 --> 00:01:07,760
Speaker 1: it doesn't matter whether it's Reagan and Gorbushawf or anybody else.

19
00:01:08,000 --> 00:01:11,280
Speaker 1: So now Biden is meeting with Putin, and the only

20
00:01:11,400 --> 00:01:14,240
Speaker 1: difference here is he doesn't know it. But other than that,

21
00:01:14,360 --> 00:01:16,760
Speaker 1: I think it. You know, no big news. Nothing was

22
00:01:16,800 --> 00:01:19,800
Speaker 1: going to happen except that Biden dug himself in a

23
00:01:19,840 --> 00:01:24,320
Speaker 1: hole and he calls his foreign adversary a killer and

24
00:01:24,360 --> 00:01:26,679
Speaker 1: then expects and then he's asked the question, well do

25
00:01:26,720 --> 00:01:29,000
Speaker 1: you trust him? And he goes, oh, sure, nads has said, yeah,

26
00:01:29,000 --> 00:01:32,880
Speaker 1: I trust him. You trust all killers. He's really out

27
00:01:32,920 --> 00:01:35,120
Speaker 1: of his league. He doesn't know what he's doing, but

28
00:01:35,280 --> 00:01:39,360
Speaker 1: you know, you knew that. Nevertheless, one interesting development did

29
00:01:39,360 --> 00:01:45,679
Speaker 1: occur depress who thinks they have a right a right

30
00:01:45,800 --> 00:01:48,880
Speaker 1: to cover anything they want, including sticking a camera in

31
00:01:48,960 --> 00:01:53,400
Speaker 1: your face, trespassing on your property, because the First Amendment

32
00:01:53,400 --> 00:01:55,960
Speaker 1: means they have a right to know right, No, it doesn't.

33
00:01:56,640 --> 00:01:59,080
Speaker 1: First Amendment simply means they have a right to try

34
00:01:59,080 --> 00:02:02,320
Speaker 1: to find out. They don't have a right to unveil

35
00:02:02,520 --> 00:02:08,120
Speaker 1: state secrets and leak and spy on domestic political opponents.

36
00:02:08,160 --> 00:02:10,080
Speaker 1: And the press doesn't have a right to do any

37
00:02:10,080 --> 00:02:14,040
Speaker 1: of that stuff. Their rights are circumscribed by your rights.

38
00:02:15,000 --> 00:02:18,399
Speaker 1: So they gather at this Putin Biden's summit and they're

39
00:02:18,560 --> 00:02:24,919
Speaker 1: they're demanding demanding that they fill more, they cover more.

40
00:02:24,960 --> 00:02:29,160
Speaker 1: They don't want to leave the room. And apparently they

41
00:02:29,200 --> 00:02:33,840
Speaker 1: were man handled by Russian security agents, tugging at their coats,

42
00:02:34,040 --> 00:02:36,080
Speaker 1: pushing them out of the way. You know they're not

43
00:02:36,200 --> 00:02:40,480
Speaker 1: used to this. And think about Jim Acosta. Okay, I

44
00:02:40,560 --> 00:02:44,519
Speaker 1: mentioned reporters and Acosta in one sentence. That obviously is

45
00:02:44,520 --> 00:02:48,800
Speaker 1: a conflict of interest, not a conflicts it's an oxymoron.

46
00:02:49,120 --> 00:02:52,520
Speaker 1: But remember when he wouldn't leave the East room. President

47
00:02:52,520 --> 00:02:54,799
Speaker 1: Trump is holding the press conference, and Trump's look, I'm

48
00:02:54,840 --> 00:02:57,080
Speaker 1: not going on with this. If you don't shut up

49
00:02:57,080 --> 00:02:59,840
Speaker 1: and sit down, other people want to ask questions. Your

50
00:03:00,280 --> 00:03:03,959
Speaker 1: your intransigence is impeding the right of other people to

51
00:03:03,960 --> 00:03:06,280
Speaker 1: ask questions. And but a Costa wouldn't do it. He's

52
00:03:06,400 --> 00:03:08,920
Speaker 1: from CNN. He has a job to do, just like

53
00:03:08,919 --> 00:03:12,160
Speaker 1: the Chinese Communist Party has a job to do rewrite history.

54
00:03:13,200 --> 00:03:18,280
Speaker 1: And in fact, now the Ruskies darn't putting up with

55
00:03:18,320 --> 00:03:20,040
Speaker 1: any of that. And they said, you guys, get the

56
00:03:20,080 --> 00:03:22,959
Speaker 1: hell out of here. Biden and Putin are gonna talk.

57
00:03:23,240 --> 00:03:25,799
Speaker 1: You've had your your photo op, you've had your time

58
00:03:25,840 --> 00:03:28,240
Speaker 1: to ask questions. Leave. Oh my gosh, you would have

59
00:03:28,280 --> 00:03:31,239
Speaker 1: thought it was the end of the world. It was

60
00:03:31,280 --> 00:03:33,720
Speaker 1: really something to see. I gotta say, By the way,

61
00:03:33,760 --> 00:03:37,080
Speaker 1: speaking of the media and leaks, you heard about this,

62
00:03:37,280 --> 00:03:39,360
Speaker 1: remember some of us tried to warn you. And I

63
00:03:39,360 --> 00:03:40,880
Speaker 1: want to get you know what, before I get into that,

64
00:03:40,920 --> 00:03:43,200
Speaker 1: I do want to get Russia's take. By the way,

65
00:03:43,280 --> 00:03:47,920
Speaker 1: on Putin and what Putin's real aims were seem here's

66
00:03:47,920 --> 00:03:51,600
Speaker 1: the deal. Putin is laughing all the way back to

67
00:03:51,600 --> 00:03:56,520
Speaker 1: to Moscow dealing with Biden. He knows that Biden's weak,

68
00:03:56,560 --> 00:03:58,600
Speaker 1: and he's just gonna get what he wants. Trump was

69
00:03:58,640 --> 00:04:03,480
Speaker 1: not contractor all of the media spin. Trump was actually

70
00:04:03,520 --> 00:04:07,360
Speaker 1: tough on foreign adversaries, extremely tough on Russia. You never

71
00:04:07,440 --> 00:04:10,080
Speaker 1: know it by you know, watching CNN. But nevertheless, that

72
00:04:10,160 --> 00:04:14,080
Speaker 1: was the truth. No one, no one actually put more

73
00:04:14,120 --> 00:04:17,719
Speaker 1: sanctions on the former Soviet Union. And by the way,

74
00:04:17,720 --> 00:04:20,640
Speaker 1: it is the former Soviet Union, it is Russia now,

75
00:04:20,839 --> 00:04:27,080
Speaker 1: not the former communist behemoth. But Putin didn't want Trump

76
00:04:27,120 --> 00:04:31,320
Speaker 1: in there anymore. So maybe by saying, oh, Trump's my friend, um,

77
00:04:31,360 --> 00:04:35,240
Speaker 1: he could have you know, expedited Trump's exit. Perhaps. Here's

78
00:04:35,279 --> 00:04:36,839
Speaker 1: what Rush had to say about this a couple of

79
00:04:36,880 --> 00:04:41,320
Speaker 1: years ago. This is Larry and Pine River, Wisconsin. Hi, Hey,

80
00:04:41,680 --> 00:04:44,640
Speaker 1: I have a question for you. What is it. I

81
00:04:44,800 --> 00:04:48,919
Speaker 1: just heard on the news that Putin came out in

82
00:04:49,040 --> 00:04:57,479
Speaker 1: defense of Donald Trump O'donald Trump. Would you actually characterize

83
00:04:57,480 --> 00:04:59,240
Speaker 1: it as Putin came out in defense of Trump? What

84
00:04:59,240 --> 00:05:02,880
Speaker 1: did Putin sat Well? According to the news, he was

85
00:05:03,040 --> 00:05:06,640
Speaker 1: defending the fact that this impeachment was, you know, not

86
00:05:06,760 --> 00:05:09,480
Speaker 1: a good face, right. He didn't defend Trump. He went

87
00:05:09,480 --> 00:05:14,479
Speaker 1: on the tag Congress. I left my ass off, Larry,

88
00:05:14,720 --> 00:05:17,159
Speaker 1: I left my ass off, and put He's goose at them.

89
00:05:17,800 --> 00:05:22,000
Speaker 1: He's going he's driving them crazy. He's keeping them believing

90
00:05:22,120 --> 00:05:25,920
Speaker 1: that Trump and Putin her buddies and are sabotaging the Democrats.

91
00:05:26,240 --> 00:05:28,680
Speaker 1: I think it was hilarious. This is on a par

92
00:05:28,960 --> 00:05:33,040
Speaker 1: of Trump asking Putin to find Hillary's emails. Here's Putin

93
00:05:33,600 --> 00:05:36,440
Speaker 1: ripping the US Congress for not having the slightest night

94
00:05:36,480 --> 00:05:39,120
Speaker 1: are what they're doing, making a big mistake. He can't

95
00:05:39,200 --> 00:05:45,880
Speaker 1: believe how stupid they are. This is fantastic. He's goosing them, Larry.

96
00:05:46,160 --> 00:05:50,919
Speaker 1: Was the fact that he's doing this simply because he

97
00:05:51,080 --> 00:05:53,880
Speaker 1: wants to set up don Old Trump in the media

98
00:05:54,279 --> 00:05:57,919
Speaker 1: and on the left, to give them a reason to say, see,

99
00:05:57,960 --> 00:06:01,200
Speaker 1: I told you he's out there doing it. Oh maybe

100
00:06:01,800 --> 00:06:06,039
Speaker 1: maybe what Putin wants to do is exactly what he's doing,

101
00:06:06,200 --> 00:06:09,440
Speaker 1: thanks to the Democrats falling for it all Vladimir Putting.

102
00:06:09,440 --> 00:06:12,080
Speaker 1: The Democrats want you to believe that Putin wanted Trump

103
00:06:12,120 --> 00:06:15,360
Speaker 1: and win, and so Trump and Putin are buddies and

104
00:06:15,480 --> 00:06:18,320
Speaker 1: they colluded and they found a way to make it happen. Well,

105
00:06:18,600 --> 00:06:22,000
Speaker 1: that's not what Putin can't control who wins. All he

106
00:06:22,080 --> 00:06:25,640
Speaker 1: wants is the United States in a state of disarray.

107
00:06:26,040 --> 00:06:29,760
Speaker 1: He wants the United States focusing on internal battles, paying

108
00:06:29,839 --> 00:06:34,760
Speaker 1: less attention to him. In truth, Donald Trump may be

109
00:06:34,880 --> 00:06:37,800
Speaker 1: the worst thing that ever happened to Vladimir Putin. Trump

110
00:06:37,920 --> 00:06:43,400
Speaker 1: is by no means a Russian ally, So there could

111
00:06:43,480 --> 00:06:46,359
Speaker 1: be an element of this Putin trying to keep the

112
00:06:46,440 --> 00:06:50,359
Speaker 1: Democrats going after Trump alive by claiming they're doing it

113
00:06:50,440 --> 00:06:54,240
Speaker 1: the wrong way, claiming they're making a mistake. But if

114
00:06:54,279 --> 00:06:56,839
Speaker 1: that's true, then all Putin is doing is simply trying

115
00:06:56,839 --> 00:07:01,520
Speaker 1: to further their belief that at Russia and Trump are

116
00:07:01,560 --> 00:07:05,400
Speaker 1: buddies and are colluding. I'm just saying that they are

117
00:07:05,480 --> 00:07:11,880
Speaker 1: so absent and distant from reality here that Putin coming

118
00:07:11,880 --> 00:07:15,160
Speaker 1: out and chastising them for doing it the wrong way.

119
00:07:15,680 --> 00:07:18,720
Speaker 1: It could be that Putin wants to further the idea

120
00:07:18,920 --> 00:07:23,720
Speaker 1: that he's on Trump's side, which could then keep the

121
00:07:23,800 --> 00:07:29,880
Speaker 1: Democrats further engaged and enraged in their effort to get Trump. Yeah,

122
00:07:29,920 --> 00:07:32,559
Speaker 1: that's exactly right. I mean, Putin really doesn't care about

123
00:07:32,560 --> 00:07:35,560
Speaker 1: a lot of this geopolitics, accept the stuff that affects him.

124
00:07:35,560 --> 00:07:39,440
Speaker 1: In Ukraine, they have shrunk, They've been hollowed out. They're

125
00:07:39,480 --> 00:07:42,800
Speaker 1: going back to quote unquote Mother Russia. This is not

126
00:07:42,880 --> 00:07:46,040
Speaker 1: the former Soviet Union. So Putin, every time he's pressed

127
00:07:46,120 --> 00:07:49,000
Speaker 1: on something, and I'm not saying he's a great liberal Democrat.

128
00:07:49,360 --> 00:07:52,760
Speaker 1: What I'm saying is that every time he's pressed on something,

129
00:07:52,880 --> 00:07:55,880
Speaker 1: he just throws it right back into Biden's faces, right

130
00:07:55,920 --> 00:07:58,440
Speaker 1: back into the media's face. And so, yeah, you got

131
00:07:58,440 --> 00:08:02,920
Speaker 1: a problem with what about your Jane six episode? You

132
00:08:02,960 --> 00:08:05,360
Speaker 1: think you got a problem with me? How come the

133
00:08:05,400 --> 00:08:08,480
Speaker 1: Capitol Police aren't releasing this or that? How can we

134
00:08:08,520 --> 00:08:11,240
Speaker 1: haven't gotten to the bottom of this investigation or that investigation?

135
00:08:11,280 --> 00:08:14,720
Speaker 1: So Biden calling him a killer was absolutely counterproductive, and

136
00:08:14,800 --> 00:08:17,000
Speaker 1: Putin knows it, and he will hold his own as

137
00:08:17,040 --> 00:08:20,040
Speaker 1: we see the details from this meeting come out. But

138
00:08:20,240 --> 00:08:21,880
Speaker 1: here's the thing I was going to get you before

139
00:08:21,960 --> 00:08:25,320
Speaker 1: Russia's take and that is this on the day when

140
00:08:25,600 --> 00:08:30,280
Speaker 1: Biden's meeting with Putin or just right before yesterday, we

141
00:08:30,400 --> 00:08:35,200
Speaker 1: now know. We now know that China may have committed

142
00:08:35,240 --> 00:08:38,680
Speaker 1: an act of war if indeed the evidence continues to

143
00:08:38,760 --> 00:08:42,160
Speaker 1: mount that this was an engineered virus coming out of Luhan.

144
00:08:42,360 --> 00:08:44,680
Speaker 1: But don't take my word for it, just take John Stewart's.

145
00:08:45,600 --> 00:08:48,120
Speaker 1: But if that proves to be as true as I

146
00:08:48,160 --> 00:08:51,240
Speaker 1: think it will be, in years gone by, that would

147
00:08:51,240 --> 00:08:53,840
Speaker 1: have been considered an act of war. You're engineering a virus,

148
00:08:54,080 --> 00:08:59,920
Speaker 1: you either through incompetence or deliberately let it go. Either way,

149
00:09:00,720 --> 00:09:03,320
Speaker 1: nobody would be talking about more trade with China in

150
00:09:03,360 --> 00:09:06,880
Speaker 1: their right mind, they'd be talking about going after China.

151
00:09:06,920 --> 00:09:09,160
Speaker 1: And then you've got the meeting with Putin, who is,

152
00:09:09,240 --> 00:09:12,160
Speaker 1: by Biden's own description, a killer. But what is the

153
00:09:12,360 --> 00:09:17,880
Speaker 1: number one threat to domestic security according to Attorney General

154
00:09:17,920 --> 00:09:21,920
Speaker 1: Merrick Garland, who's turning out to be an absolute Biden

155
00:09:22,000 --> 00:09:26,000
Speaker 1: two point oh, he's a puppet, He's a prop for

156
00:09:26,080 --> 00:09:34,080
Speaker 1: the squad. The top domestic threat in America. White supremacist groups.

157
00:09:34,760 --> 00:09:36,360
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, I was taking a walk the other day

158
00:09:36,360 --> 00:09:40,520
Speaker 1: and a band of him drove right by. And just seriously,

159
00:09:40,600 --> 00:09:42,480
Speaker 1: what is this guy talking about. If you look at

160
00:09:42,520 --> 00:09:47,880
Speaker 1: the Bureau of Justice statistics from Garland's own Department of Justice,

161
00:09:47,880 --> 00:09:54,040
Speaker 1: the BJS statistics, there is zero evidence, zero evidence of

162
00:09:54,080 --> 00:09:58,920
Speaker 1: an epidemic or the top domestic threat of white on hispanic,

163
00:09:59,280 --> 00:10:02,280
Speaker 1: white on fee email, white on gay, white on black crime.

164
00:10:03,080 --> 00:10:08,120
Speaker 1: In fact, the data proportionately is lopsided in the other direction.

165
00:10:09,920 --> 00:10:13,400
Speaker 1: But the point is, why are they doing this when

166
00:10:13,800 --> 00:10:16,400
Speaker 1: China may have committed an act of war? When Putin's

167
00:10:16,400 --> 00:10:20,760
Speaker 1: a killer by Biden's own admission, and you're talking about that.

168
00:10:20,800 --> 00:10:23,000
Speaker 1: This is in the wake of a I think it

169
00:10:23,040 --> 00:10:26,120
Speaker 1: was a Georgia man, but the shooting occurred in Georgia

170
00:10:26,240 --> 00:10:31,480
Speaker 1: and Alabama in the southeast. He had this fellow who

171
00:10:31,559 --> 00:10:34,800
Speaker 1: decided to target white people. Now why did he decide

172
00:10:34,840 --> 00:10:37,480
Speaker 1: to target white people? I think he shot to five

173
00:10:37,559 --> 00:10:39,400
Speaker 1: people and I shot one guy in the back. Came

174
00:10:39,480 --> 00:10:41,640
Speaker 1: up to him, didn't know him. He's white. I'm gonna

175
00:10:41,640 --> 00:10:44,520
Speaker 1: shoot you in the back. The media just absolutely spiked

176
00:10:44,520 --> 00:10:48,800
Speaker 1: the story because he said, in so many words, well,

177
00:10:48,880 --> 00:10:53,200
Speaker 1: I was told white people are the devil incarnate, They're

178
00:10:53,200 --> 00:10:58,000
Speaker 1: the top domestic threat. We gotta go after him. Now,

179
00:10:58,080 --> 00:11:02,640
Speaker 1: this sort of sewing of Asian and deliberately targeting people

180
00:11:02,679 --> 00:11:08,040
Speaker 1: on the basis of skin color is is about as

181
00:11:08,240 --> 00:11:11,080
Speaker 1: racist as you could possibly imagine. And there you have

182
00:11:11,200 --> 00:11:15,720
Speaker 1: the Attorney General and his allies in the press encouraging it. Now,

183
00:11:15,800 --> 00:11:17,600
Speaker 1: let me, I want to be clear about that by

184
00:11:17,800 --> 00:11:25,200
Speaker 1: lying about this, they are encouraging encouraging interracial crime. And

185
00:11:25,320 --> 00:11:28,240
Speaker 1: the same thing happened during the Jim Crow in reverse

186
00:11:29,120 --> 00:11:31,280
Speaker 1: when you had the government looking the other way with

187
00:11:31,400 --> 00:11:35,240
Speaker 1: white on black crime. Are are we going to the

188
00:11:35,280 --> 00:11:38,960
Speaker 1: other direction now? A Merrick Garland is turning out to

189
00:11:39,000 --> 00:11:41,080
Speaker 1: be every bit as bad as I thought he would be.

190
00:11:41,160 --> 00:11:44,840
Speaker 1: I'm Jason Lewis in for well In for the guest host. Today.

191
00:11:45,320 --> 00:11:48,720
Speaker 1: We're doing the Rush Limbaugh program and more of El

192
00:11:48,840 --> 00:11:52,240
Speaker 1: Rush Bow when we come back on EIB. You know,

193
00:11:52,320 --> 00:11:55,520
Speaker 1: this whole Merrick Garland thing has a white supremacy being

194
00:11:55,520 --> 00:11:59,600
Speaker 1: the top domestic threat reminds me of the conundrum that

195
00:11:59,640 --> 00:12:02,120
Speaker 1: I've been thinking about for quite some time and really

196
00:12:02,160 --> 00:12:04,840
Speaker 1: goes back to when I was in Congress and I

197
00:12:04,880 --> 00:12:08,040
Speaker 1: had an opportunity to go down to the Capitol Visitor

198
00:12:08,080 --> 00:12:10,600
Speaker 1: Center of the Intelligence Committee and read all of the

199
00:12:10,640 --> 00:12:14,440
Speaker 1: intelligence data on Russia. Obviously, I can't tell you what

200
00:12:14,559 --> 00:12:19,840
Speaker 1: was there, but I can tell you this, I read

201
00:12:19,880 --> 00:12:23,599
Speaker 1: most of it in the media beforehand. The leaks were everywhere.

202
00:12:24,559 --> 00:12:27,960
Speaker 1: You had Swallowell and Adam Schiff working hand in hand

203
00:12:28,000 --> 00:12:31,439
Speaker 1: with the media. We knew that, but they were also

204
00:12:31,480 --> 00:12:34,800
Speaker 1: working hand in hand with our own government out to

205
00:12:34,920 --> 00:12:38,120
Speaker 1: unseat a duly elected president. They were not only spine

206
00:12:38,200 --> 00:12:42,160
Speaker 1: on Trump and spine on a whole host of Trump

207
00:12:42,280 --> 00:12:47,480
Speaker 1: aids that we now know. They were conjuring up false

208
00:12:47,559 --> 00:12:52,040
Speaker 1: Russian collusion. They were falsifying data or documents like the

209
00:12:52,120 --> 00:12:55,640
Speaker 1: Russian dossier, the Steel Dossier, to a FISA court which

210
00:12:55,679 --> 00:13:00,120
Speaker 1: to this day has shamefully, shamefully done nothing about it.

211
00:13:00,360 --> 00:13:04,160
Speaker 1: That's why I voted against reauthorization of FAISA, including seven

212
00:13:04,200 --> 00:13:07,760
Speaker 1: O two. But the point is we shouldn't be engaged

213
00:13:07,760 --> 00:13:10,920
Speaker 1: in spine on fellow Americans, period. We shouldn't just be

214
00:13:10,960 --> 00:13:12,720
Speaker 1: doing that, period. It's a matter shouldn't not be a

215
00:13:12,760 --> 00:13:16,360
Speaker 1: secret court allowing that, especially with a substandard level of

216
00:13:16,400 --> 00:13:19,440
Speaker 1: probable cause. No public court could ever get away with that.

217
00:13:20,160 --> 00:13:23,400
Speaker 1: But what happens when you've got your own government leaking

218
00:13:23,480 --> 00:13:28,640
Speaker 1: and working with one political party. Well, you say, Jayson,

219
00:13:28,720 --> 00:13:32,320
Speaker 1: you're just being a partisan. You're not thinking about you

220
00:13:32,400 --> 00:13:36,680
Speaker 1: know all of this, all of the threat that Trump proposed.

221
00:13:36,720 --> 00:13:41,319
Speaker 1: He was so authoritarian, why we had to do something? Well, really, well,

222
00:13:41,360 --> 00:13:46,120
Speaker 1: let me tell you what's happened now. Pro Publica has

223
00:13:46,200 --> 00:13:51,280
Speaker 1: apparently worked with someone we don't know who, but somehow

224
00:13:51,960 --> 00:13:56,160
Speaker 1: they got private tax return info, not on just Jeff

225
00:13:56,200 --> 00:13:58,760
Speaker 1: Bezos or Warren Buffett. I don't give a damn about

226
00:13:58,760 --> 00:14:00,800
Speaker 1: those guys. I'd like to see their taxes go up.

227
00:14:01,080 --> 00:14:04,640
Speaker 1: But the fact is what their story was or not

228
00:14:04,720 --> 00:14:08,520
Speaker 1: paying enough of their wealth was totally totally a non story.

229
00:14:08,640 --> 00:14:12,040
Speaker 1: We don't tax people's wealth accumulation. We tax their income

230
00:14:12,320 --> 00:14:15,720
Speaker 1: because when you're accumulating wealth, your lifestyle hasn't gone up.

231
00:14:16,040 --> 00:14:18,280
Speaker 1: Your lifestyle doesn't go up until you sell the stock.

232
00:14:18,480 --> 00:14:20,400
Speaker 1: Then you've got the money to buy things. That's what

233
00:14:20,440 --> 00:14:22,640
Speaker 1: we tax. That's the way it should be, so we

234
00:14:22,720 --> 00:14:26,480
Speaker 1: encourage people to invest and accumulate wealth. Far be it

235
00:14:26,480 --> 00:14:29,720
Speaker 1: for me to defend those two to what liberal democrats.

236
00:14:29,800 --> 00:14:32,760
Speaker 1: But I've got to do what I must. Right the

237
00:14:32,880 --> 00:14:36,800
Speaker 1: point is, the question is how did Pro Publica get

238
00:14:37,040 --> 00:14:42,240
Speaker 1: thousands of returns? It's not just buffet in bezos. By

239
00:14:42,280 --> 00:14:46,000
Speaker 1: every account they have thousands of returns. Was someone at

240
00:14:46,040 --> 00:14:50,920
Speaker 1: the IRS leaking it to them? Somebody at the IRS

241
00:14:51,040 --> 00:14:55,080
Speaker 1: actually doing the left wings dirty work. Well, let me

242
00:14:55,160 --> 00:14:57,960
Speaker 1: remind you, friends, and I don't think anybody's mentioned this.

243
00:14:58,880 --> 00:15:03,520
Speaker 1: Pro Publica was absolutely involved back in December of twenty

244
00:15:03,680 --> 00:15:10,000
Speaker 1: twelve when the liberal media outlet received a conservative five

245
00:15:10,160 --> 00:15:15,240
Speaker 1: H one C four's returns or application for tax exempt

246
00:15:15,280 --> 00:15:19,120
Speaker 1: status from the IRS. They were getting data from the

247
00:15:19,160 --> 00:15:25,800
Speaker 1: IRS in the Obama IRS scandal. So you've got ostensibly

248
00:15:26,360 --> 00:15:30,520
Speaker 1: government actors working with a left wing media outlet to

249
00:15:30,640 --> 00:15:32,880
Speaker 1: get what they want, in this case raised taxes. In

250
00:15:32,920 --> 00:15:36,000
Speaker 1: the other case, back in the Obama IRS scandal, which

251
00:15:36,040 --> 00:15:41,160
Speaker 1: nothing never came of, to go after conservative organizations. This

252
00:15:41,200 --> 00:15:44,920
Speaker 1: is what we face with the swamp. The swamp has

253
00:15:45,000 --> 00:15:47,280
Speaker 1: taken side one of the things we were going to do,

254
00:15:47,480 --> 00:15:50,040
Speaker 1: had I won the US Senate race, had President Trump

255
00:15:50,200 --> 00:15:53,360
Speaker 1: that had his second term, go after civil service reform.

256
00:15:53,680 --> 00:15:57,200
Speaker 1: You have a permanent bureaucracy. Politicians come and go, schedule

257
00:15:57,280 --> 00:16:00,320
Speaker 1: sea appointees come and go. Political appointments come and go,

258
00:16:00,360 --> 00:16:03,440
Speaker 1: but the bureaucracy stays there. We better do something about

259
00:16:03,440 --> 00:16:07,360
Speaker 1: that before we have a one party rule in this country.

260
00:16:08,080 --> 00:16:10,840
Speaker 1: And this one party rule now is pulling out all

261
00:16:10,840 --> 00:16:14,920
Speaker 1: the stops for an infrastructure bill, and five Republicans are

262
00:16:14,920 --> 00:16:18,680
Speaker 1: helping the Democrats get a trillion dollars infrastructure bill passed

263
00:16:18,760 --> 00:16:21,440
Speaker 1: when the country's bankrupt with a thirty trillion dollar debt.

264
00:16:22,160 --> 00:16:24,920
Speaker 1: What on earth are they thinking about? The Democrats are

265
00:16:24,920 --> 00:16:27,480
Speaker 1: going to use reconciliation to try to get this passed,

266
00:16:27,640 --> 00:16:29,800
Speaker 1: but they've got a little problem with the bird rule.

267
00:16:30,280 --> 00:16:32,920
Speaker 1: The Senate parliamentarian has already said no, no, no, no,

268
00:16:33,120 --> 00:16:35,920
Speaker 1: this is for a budget resolution, a one time deal.

269
00:16:36,120 --> 00:16:38,920
Speaker 1: She's right. I served on the Budget committee. We passed

270
00:16:38,920 --> 00:16:42,760
Speaker 1: three budget resolutions. They were an all encompassing macro budget.

271
00:16:42,920 --> 00:16:46,240
Speaker 1: You can't just blow out spending and call it reconciliation.

272
00:16:46,760 --> 00:16:49,840
Speaker 1: Here's what Rush had to say about this infrastructure stuff.

273
00:16:49,920 --> 00:16:52,880
Speaker 1: The Democrats are measuring and drapes in the Oval Office.

274
00:16:52,920 --> 00:16:55,480
Speaker 1: They're already plotting how they're going to spend your money.

275
00:16:56,000 --> 00:16:59,840
Speaker 1: Political reports and Democrats are eyeing aggressive budget and spend

276
00:16:59,840 --> 00:17:02,840
Speaker 1: the plans. If they sweep in November, they plan to

277
00:17:03,040 --> 00:17:07,520
Speaker 1: deploy every tool at their disposal, and Democrats are sick

278
00:17:07,560 --> 00:17:11,200
Speaker 1: and tired of strict budget caps the threat of automatic

279
00:17:11,240 --> 00:17:14,720
Speaker 1: spending cuts. So if they pull off a trieffective winning

280
00:17:14,720 --> 00:17:17,760
Speaker 1: the White House, Senate, in the House, all bets are off.

281
00:17:17,800 --> 00:17:21,800
Speaker 1: They'll use budget reconciliation to get around to Senate filibusters

282
00:17:21,800 --> 00:17:26,240
Speaker 1: so they can spend big on infrastructure, clean energy, the

283
00:17:26,280 --> 00:17:31,600
Speaker 1: Green New Deal, government paid childcare, and other leftist big

284
00:17:31,640 --> 00:17:35,440
Speaker 1: ticket items. Senior Democrats are not hiding it. They plan

285
00:17:35,520 --> 00:17:40,160
Speaker 1: to disperse trillions of dollars on their budget fantasies. Democrat

286
00:17:40,200 --> 00:17:43,960
Speaker 1: Congressman John Yarmouth, who would head the House Budget Committee, said,

287
00:17:44,320 --> 00:17:49,439
Speaker 1: the possibilities are endless, so we'll get endless spending on

288
00:17:49,480 --> 00:17:53,639
Speaker 1: the Democrat agenda, plus Joe Biden's promise to raise taxes

289
00:17:53,680 --> 00:17:56,640
Speaker 1: on businesses and get rid of the Trump tax cuts.

290
00:17:57,440 --> 00:17:59,840
Speaker 1: Add it all up, and here's what we've got. Business

291
00:18:00,119 --> 00:18:04,440
Speaker 1: is fleeing the country again, massive recessions again, low economic

292
00:18:04,480 --> 00:18:07,960
Speaker 1: growth again, millions of jobs down to drain again. Prosperity

293
00:18:08,040 --> 00:18:12,360
Speaker 1: out the window, the American dream destroyed. This is what

294
00:18:12,440 --> 00:18:15,119
Speaker 1: Democrats have to offer. It's what they want to offer.

295
00:18:15,400 --> 00:18:18,120
Speaker 1: It's what they do best. Do not doubt me, folks,

296
00:18:19,000 --> 00:18:21,480
Speaker 1: do not doubt l Rushbo. He's right, of course, and

297
00:18:21,640 --> 00:18:24,959
Speaker 1: this infrastructure bill should be going nowhere. The thought that

298
00:18:25,000 --> 00:18:28,240
Speaker 1: five Republicans, the usual suspects, are trying to work to

299
00:18:28,280 --> 00:18:31,080
Speaker 1: get this done is a gift to Biden. But the

300
00:18:31,200 --> 00:18:34,800
Speaker 1: real danger is if they get infrastructure out of the way,

301
00:18:35,200 --> 00:18:38,119
Speaker 1: what the Biden administration really plans to do is to

302
00:18:38,119 --> 00:18:42,320
Speaker 1: wrap everything else up four or five six trillion dollars

303
00:18:42,359 --> 00:18:45,520
Speaker 1: into a reconciliation bill that's going to be a total

304
00:18:45,680 --> 00:18:48,600
Speaker 1: abuse of the nineteen seventy four budget law that says

305
00:18:48,680 --> 00:18:52,960
Speaker 1: budget reconciliation passes a budget, it's got to be germane.

306
00:18:53,080 --> 00:18:56,640
Speaker 1: It's usually used once, not for endless revisions. And that's

307
00:18:56,640 --> 00:19:01,240
Speaker 1: what the Senate parliamentarian has already said. So naturally, what

308
00:19:01,359 --> 00:19:05,240
Speaker 1: did ilan Omar say? Fire her and we'll just cram

309
00:19:05,280 --> 00:19:07,520
Speaker 1: this down the throats of the American people because we

310
00:19:07,520 --> 00:19:14,159
Speaker 1: want to end up just like Venezuela bankrupt. I don't understand,

311
00:19:14,400 --> 00:19:17,560
Speaker 1: I really don't understand why these Republicans are trying to

312
00:19:17,600 --> 00:19:21,800
Speaker 1: help Biden get an infrastructure bill. It's a little bit

313
00:19:21,880 --> 00:19:26,920
Speaker 1: like opposing closing the border because Donald Trump has now

314
00:19:26,960 --> 00:19:29,879
Speaker 1: said he's going to go to the border to emphasize

315
00:19:29,880 --> 00:19:34,320
Speaker 1: the contrast between controlling our sovereignty and letting it go

316
00:19:34,640 --> 00:19:37,280
Speaker 1: straight to hell the way the Biden administration is done.

317
00:19:38,040 --> 00:19:40,119
Speaker 1: We're gonna talk about that coming up next segment. And

318
00:19:40,200 --> 00:19:42,600
Speaker 1: Russia has got a great point on how a legal

319
00:19:42,600 --> 00:19:47,120
Speaker 1: immigration is indeed a national emergency, and it is right

320
00:19:47,160 --> 00:19:49,760
Speaker 1: now a national emergency. We better get a handle on that,

321
00:19:49,800 --> 00:19:51,840
Speaker 1: so we'll get to the border stuff coming up. More

322
00:19:51,920 --> 00:19:55,240
Speaker 1: Rush clips stick around. I am former Congressman Jason Lewis

323
00:19:55,240 --> 00:19:59,720
Speaker 1: your guide today on the Excellence and Broadcasting Network. Oh yes,

324
00:20:00,320 --> 00:20:03,400
Speaker 1: remembering America's real anchor, Man Rush Limbaugh on the Excellence

325
00:20:03,400 --> 00:20:07,400
Speaker 1: in Broadcasting Network. Still the fastest three hours in radio. Look,

326
00:20:07,440 --> 00:20:09,119
Speaker 1: here's the plan here, game. We've got so much to

327
00:20:09,160 --> 00:20:13,359
Speaker 1: talk about Biden versus Putin. We've got Merrick Garland accusing

328
00:20:13,880 --> 00:20:17,240
Speaker 1: you know, well basically people by skin color of being

329
00:20:17,440 --> 00:20:21,960
Speaker 1: the top domestic threat. We have Pro Publica, the left

330
00:20:21,960 --> 00:20:25,800
Speaker 1: wing organization, getting data from the IRS just like it's

331
00:20:25,840 --> 00:20:29,040
Speaker 1: twenty twelve. People forget that this is the same Pro

332
00:20:29,160 --> 00:20:33,320
Speaker 1: Publica that was involved in the Obama IRS scandal when

333
00:20:33,320 --> 00:20:37,000
Speaker 1: they were targeting conservative five O, one C four groups

334
00:20:37,200 --> 00:20:41,920
Speaker 1: like Crossroads USA and others, and now they're back. This

335
00:20:42,000 --> 00:20:47,639
Speaker 1: is the same government that leaks to Adam Shift in Swallowell,

336
00:20:49,480 --> 00:20:52,879
Speaker 1: and then they're upset because the Trump administration wanted to

337
00:20:52,920 --> 00:20:58,080
Speaker 1: find out who's leaking to them. We have a permanent class,

338
00:20:58,160 --> 00:21:03,960
Speaker 1: a permanent bureaucracy embedded not just in dj and the FBI,

339
00:21:04,119 --> 00:21:07,680
Speaker 1: which is now getting to the point of being borderline corrupt.

340
00:21:08,880 --> 00:21:11,440
Speaker 1: Remember during the Trump campaign and all of the violence

341
00:21:11,440 --> 00:21:14,640
Speaker 1: of the campaign, some of that was instigated by left

342
00:21:14,680 --> 00:21:20,960
Speaker 1: wing groups. Obviously they do this deliberately. So you've got

343
00:21:20,960 --> 00:21:27,000
Speaker 1: a situation here where like Peru or Venezuela or else Saliva,

344
00:21:27,040 --> 00:21:31,080
Speaker 1: pick your favorite country where you've got one party rule

345
00:21:31,240 --> 00:21:35,439
Speaker 1: and when anybody challenges them, they wind up being prosecuted

346
00:21:35,440 --> 00:21:42,000
Speaker 1: and put in jail. The apparatus of government goes after them. Now,

347
00:21:42,080 --> 00:21:44,480
Speaker 1: you can describe that as anything you want, but the

348
00:21:44,520 --> 00:21:48,439
Speaker 1: closest word is tyrannical. The closest word is losing our

349
00:21:48,480 --> 00:21:53,520
Speaker 1: constitutional republic, losing self government, and we are right up

350
00:21:53,560 --> 00:21:56,399
Speaker 1: against it. Take a look at the border. Got a

351
00:21:56,440 --> 00:22:01,240
Speaker 1: caller here from from Wisconsin, Saint Jason's there's no comparison

352
00:22:01,320 --> 00:22:03,720
Speaker 1: between Biden and Carter. By the way, we'll get to

353
00:22:03,760 --> 00:22:06,960
Speaker 1: Call's next break. But there's no comparison to Biden and

354
00:22:07,040 --> 00:22:12,040
Speaker 1: Carter because Carter was just incompetent. Biden is doing this

355
00:22:12,160 --> 00:22:14,840
Speaker 1: on purpose, and I actually think that's probably true to

356
00:22:14,920 --> 00:22:17,000
Speaker 1: a large degree. Biden may not know he's doing it

357
00:22:17,080 --> 00:22:19,879
Speaker 1: on purpose, just like Merrick Garland may not know. But

358
00:22:19,920 --> 00:22:22,440
Speaker 1: they are being manipulated by the squad and the left

359
00:22:22,440 --> 00:22:27,600
Speaker 1: wing indivisible radicals that have taken over the Democrat Party.

360
00:22:29,240 --> 00:22:33,840
Speaker 1: They are globalist collectivists who believe in the almighty power

361
00:22:34,280 --> 00:22:39,040
Speaker 1: that would make Mao blush. I keep going back to

362
00:22:39,080 --> 00:22:42,520
Speaker 1: the old great John Lennon line in Revolution where he

363
00:22:42,640 --> 00:22:46,000
Speaker 1: mocked the left wingers. Yeah, yeah, that's right, mister Marxist.

364
00:22:46,119 --> 00:22:49,439
Speaker 1: John Lennon mocked the revolutionaries when he said, if you

365
00:22:49,520 --> 00:22:52,520
Speaker 1: go carrying pitchers of Chairman Mao, you ain't gonna make

366
00:22:52,520 --> 00:22:55,080
Speaker 1: it with anyone anyhow. That's all these people are doing.

367
00:22:55,160 --> 00:23:02,120
Speaker 1: They're celebrating Maoism. They're defenders of Chinese communism, and if

368
00:23:02,119 --> 00:23:03,919
Speaker 1: you look at what's going on at the border, the

369
00:23:03,960 --> 00:23:08,960
Speaker 1: best way they can expedite the overthrow the revolution now

370
00:23:09,160 --> 00:23:11,280
Speaker 1: nineteen forty seven, the best way they can get to

371
00:23:11,359 --> 00:23:13,960
Speaker 1: there is about having a flood of illegals come in

372
00:23:14,240 --> 00:23:17,400
Speaker 1: and create a national emergency, and of course, of course

373
00:23:17,520 --> 00:23:19,679
Speaker 1: vote for them. Here's how Rush described it back in

374
00:23:19,720 --> 00:23:22,959
Speaker 1: twenty nineteen. But I like the idea of a national

375
00:23:23,000 --> 00:23:26,040
Speaker 1: address by the president from the oval orifice on this

376
00:23:26,800 --> 00:23:31,040
Speaker 1: crisis at the southern border involving drugs, illegal immigration, and

377
00:23:31,200 --> 00:23:33,840
Speaker 1: they all out assault on the United States of America.

378
00:23:33,840 --> 00:23:36,360
Speaker 1: I said, I like the idea of a national address.

379
00:23:36,400 --> 00:23:38,479
Speaker 1: I don't know the networks would give him the time,

380
00:23:39,359 --> 00:23:41,600
Speaker 1: you know, they don't have to, but a national address

381
00:23:41,680 --> 00:23:44,960
Speaker 1: that's written and promptered could explain what's going on and why.

382
00:23:45,200 --> 00:23:48,480
Speaker 1: There's going to be an official Democrat response. It'll be

383
00:23:48,520 --> 00:23:52,840
Speaker 1: a joint response. Chuck and Nancy are going to join

384
00:23:53,000 --> 00:23:59,400
Speaker 1: together to do a coordinated universal response to President Trump.

385
00:24:00,080 --> 00:24:02,840
Speaker 1: And it's going to be fascinating to me to see

386
00:24:03,240 --> 00:24:06,720
Speaker 1: their attitude. Is it going to be arrogance, Is it

387
00:24:06,800 --> 00:24:10,400
Speaker 1: going to be condescending? Is it going to be insulting?

388
00:24:10,440 --> 00:24:14,159
Speaker 1: If Trump, like Gavin Newsom was in his inaugural addresses

389
00:24:14,240 --> 00:24:18,840
Speaker 1: the governor of California, all he did was takeout after Trump.

390
00:24:18,880 --> 00:24:21,040
Speaker 1: We got details of this coming up There's lots of

391
00:24:21,080 --> 00:24:23,520
Speaker 1: stuff I want to get to today, including a debate

392
00:24:23,640 --> 00:24:27,840
Speaker 1: has ensued over whether or not the president can actually

393
00:24:28,040 --> 00:24:31,840
Speaker 1: invoke emergency powers to build a wall or to shut

394
00:24:31,880 --> 00:24:36,439
Speaker 1: it down. And the consensus among legal minds that I

395
00:24:36,480 --> 00:24:39,399
Speaker 1: respect is that it's a no brainer that there is

396
00:24:39,440 --> 00:24:42,480
Speaker 1: an Act of Congress from nineteen seventy six that permits

397
00:24:42,560 --> 00:24:46,240
Speaker 1: him to do just that, and it's a pretty damn

398
00:24:46,280 --> 00:24:52,400
Speaker 1: broad power. It's the Executive Emergencies Act nineteen seventy six,

399
00:24:52,760 --> 00:24:56,320
Speaker 1: the Congress did in nineteen seventy six. And it's really

400
00:24:56,320 --> 00:25:00,720
Speaker 1: strange when you consider that it's post Watergate and the Democrats,

401
00:25:00,800 --> 00:25:03,040
Speaker 1: i'm sure, thought that there was never going to be

402
00:25:03,119 --> 00:25:06,640
Speaker 1: another Republican president again, and Nixon had destroyed in their

403
00:25:06,640 --> 00:25:09,480
Speaker 1: minds a Republican party, and so they're passing laws that

404
00:25:09,520 --> 00:25:13,960
Speaker 1: are expanding the powers of the executive branch like mad

405
00:25:13,960 --> 00:25:17,320
Speaker 1: because they think they're going to be occupying it in perpetuity.

406
00:25:18,000 --> 00:25:20,240
Speaker 1: And now it's one of these things that's come back

407
00:25:20,280 --> 00:25:23,600
Speaker 1: to bite them. So this is a debate that's raging

408
00:25:23,880 --> 00:25:26,840
Speaker 1: and it doesn't seem to me to be much of

409
00:25:26,880 --> 00:25:31,479
Speaker 1: a question legally, and precisely because of that, the media

410
00:25:31,800 --> 00:25:35,840
Speaker 1: and the Democrats are attempting to muddy the waters here

411
00:25:36,480 --> 00:25:38,919
Speaker 1: and make it look like the law doesn't exist and

412
00:25:39,000 --> 00:25:45,879
Speaker 1: that Trump is a power mad, dictatorial, incompetent buffoon who's

413
00:25:45,920 --> 00:25:50,879
Speaker 1: putting the nation at great risk. But is what's happening

414
00:25:51,080 --> 00:25:54,480
Speaker 1: at the southern border and emergency? This is a question

415
00:25:54,920 --> 00:25:58,040
Speaker 1: that I think is a microcosm of the overall question

416
00:25:58,080 --> 00:26:00,439
Speaker 1: that we face regarding the country at large. Are we

417
00:26:00,520 --> 00:26:04,040
Speaker 1: in a crisis? And part of the reason for this

418
00:26:04,080 --> 00:26:09,200
Speaker 1: crisis is precisely what's happening on the southern border. How

419
00:26:09,200 --> 00:26:12,040
Speaker 1: About there have been two hundred thirty five thousand arrests

420
00:26:12,040 --> 00:26:14,600
Speaker 1: of illegal aliens by ICE in the last year alone.

421
00:26:15,280 --> 00:26:19,600
Speaker 1: That number includes four thousand arrests for homicide, thirty thousand

422
00:26:19,760 --> 00:26:24,920
Speaker 1: arrests for sex crimes, and over one hundred thousand arrests

423
00:26:25,000 --> 00:26:27,960
Speaker 1: for assault. How can anybody look at those numbers and

424
00:26:28,040 --> 00:26:33,359
Speaker 1: say this isn't a crisis? Then the overall invasion aspect

425
00:26:33,480 --> 00:26:36,160
Speaker 1: of the sheer numbers of people who are coming, who

426
00:26:36,200 --> 00:26:40,760
Speaker 1: have no desire to assimilate, have no desire to become

427
00:26:40,840 --> 00:26:46,639
Speaker 1: part of what is and has been a distinct American culture. Rather,

428
00:26:46,960 --> 00:26:50,479
Speaker 1: they come here and become pawns of a Democrat party

429
00:26:50,960 --> 00:26:54,679
Speaker 1: seeking to undermine that very culture. Although there is some

430
00:26:54,760 --> 00:26:58,639
Speaker 1: surprising polling data something in the neighborhood of thirty percent

431
00:26:58,720 --> 00:27:01,960
Speaker 1: of Hispanic voters approve of the job Trump is doing.

432
00:27:02,000 --> 00:27:06,480
Speaker 1: So some of the conventional wisdom is wrong about what

433
00:27:06,600 --> 00:27:09,280
Speaker 1: happens to people eventually come here. But the objective of

434
00:27:09,320 --> 00:27:11,840
Speaker 1: the Democrats is very clear. To convert every one of

435
00:27:11,840 --> 00:27:15,159
Speaker 1: them to a ward of the state, to keep them

436
00:27:15,840 --> 00:27:19,560
Speaker 1: with meager incomes, to keep them uneducated, to keep in

437
00:27:19,680 --> 00:27:25,320
Speaker 1: totally dependent. The overall impact of that on the culture,

438
00:27:25,520 --> 00:27:28,560
Speaker 1: on our morality, on the whole concept of guardrails and

439
00:27:28,640 --> 00:27:32,639
Speaker 1: right and wrong itself is a crisis, and it's an

440
00:27:32,680 --> 00:27:34,919
Speaker 1: even larger one if you consider the assaults in the

441
00:27:34,960 --> 00:27:37,600
Speaker 1: country made by the Democrats and their mad cap left.

442
00:27:37,640 --> 00:27:40,199
Speaker 1: But back to the border, look at the drug situation.

443
00:27:40,320 --> 00:27:45,080
Speaker 1: Just the drug problem that an open border is causing

444
00:27:45,160 --> 00:27:48,240
Speaker 1: should be enough to be considered a national emergency. Get this,

445
00:27:48,359 --> 00:27:50,800
Speaker 1: more than ninety percent of the drugs coming into the

446
00:27:50,840 --> 00:27:54,199
Speaker 1: country are coming across the southern border, ninety percent of

447
00:27:54,200 --> 00:27:57,639
Speaker 1: the illegal drugs, and when the number of overdoses on

448
00:27:57,800 --> 00:28:02,040
Speaker 1: heroin and meth and Chris Myth have cost three times

449
00:28:02,080 --> 00:28:05,320
Speaker 1: the number of American deaths than the number of Americans

450
00:28:05,400 --> 00:28:07,800
Speaker 1: killed during the entire war in Vietnam. How can you

451
00:28:07,880 --> 00:28:12,680
Speaker 1: say with a different crisis, Bingo, And don't forget fentanyl

452
00:28:13,320 --> 00:28:18,560
Speaker 1: being imported through Mexico in many cases into the United

453
00:28:18,600 --> 00:28:22,159
Speaker 1: States and through the border. It's just out of control.

454
00:28:22,240 --> 00:28:24,160
Speaker 1: And that was a couple of years ago. We all

455
00:28:24,200 --> 00:28:27,720
Speaker 1: know it's much much worse right now. How often do

456
00:28:27,760 --> 00:28:30,920
Speaker 1: you rely on your cell phone? For some it's all day,

457
00:28:30,960 --> 00:28:34,080
Speaker 1: every day. That kind of cell phone usage can become

458
00:28:34,080 --> 00:28:37,320
Speaker 1: expensive unless you switch to peer talk with a flat

459
00:28:37,359 --> 00:28:40,560
Speaker 1: thirty dollars a month fee for unlimited talk, text and

460
00:28:40,640 --> 00:28:43,800
Speaker 1: six gigs of data. When Rush discovered pier talk last year,

461
00:28:43,840 --> 00:28:46,320
Speaker 1: he detailed it all out for us and it went

462
00:28:46,400 --> 00:28:48,680
Speaker 1: like this, your shop for the best price you can

463
00:28:48,720 --> 00:28:53,360
Speaker 1: find on insurance, on home mortgages, on vacation travel, maybe

464
00:28:53,400 --> 00:28:56,680
Speaker 1: even cheeseburgers. I don't know. So why not do the

465
00:28:56,760 --> 00:29:00,400
Speaker 1: same thing with cellular phone service? Your cell phone number

466
00:29:00,880 --> 00:29:04,600
Speaker 1: is your own, and who you choose for cellular services

467
00:29:04,720 --> 00:29:08,000
Speaker 1: all up to you. One company makes such a compelling

468
00:29:08,040 --> 00:29:10,960
Speaker 1: offer it's worth thinking about. It's pure Talk. They offer

469
00:29:11,000 --> 00:29:14,800
Speaker 1: you unlimited talk text and six gigs of data for

470
00:29:14,880 --> 00:29:17,920
Speaker 1: just thirty dollars a month. And guess what if you

471
00:29:18,040 --> 00:29:21,240
Speaker 1: go over on the data, they don't charge you for it.

472
00:29:21,360 --> 00:29:25,880
Speaker 1: Pure Talk. Compare that monthly price thirty dollars a month

473
00:29:26,040 --> 00:29:28,800
Speaker 1: to your current cell phone bill and you'll see why

474
00:29:28,840 --> 00:29:31,280
Speaker 1: it makes sense to change. Now. I don't know what

475
00:29:31,360 --> 00:29:34,760
Speaker 1: your cell phone bill is, but I would wager you

476
00:29:35,240 --> 00:29:40,160
Speaker 1: that it's sixty bucks or more, maybe a hundred and twenty,

477
00:29:40,320 --> 00:29:44,280
Speaker 1: maybe seventy five or more. This outfit, pure Talk, is

478
00:29:44,360 --> 00:29:49,560
Speaker 1: offering you on limited talk, on limited text, and six

479
00:29:49,600 --> 00:29:52,760
Speaker 1: gigs of data for thirty dollars a month. Now, pure

480
00:29:52,760 --> 00:29:55,360
Speaker 1: Talk knows they're in the same business with the likes

481
00:29:55,360 --> 00:29:59,200
Speaker 1: of AT and T and Verizon and T Mobile. In fact,

482
00:29:59,480 --> 00:30:03,560
Speaker 1: get this, they use the same cell towers of one

483
00:30:03,720 --> 00:30:06,560
Speaker 1: of the big companies that covers ninety nine percent a country.

484
00:30:06,600 --> 00:30:10,520
Speaker 1: They offer superior service. One hundred percent of the Pure

485
00:30:10,560 --> 00:30:14,160
Speaker 1: Talk customer support team is right here in America. So

486
00:30:14,280 --> 00:30:16,600
Speaker 1: you make one phone call to them today, you can

487
00:30:16,640 --> 00:30:19,480
Speaker 1: start to save money by switching to pure Talk. All

488
00:30:19,480 --> 00:30:22,080
Speaker 1: you do is get your cell phone and dial pound

489
00:30:22,240 --> 00:30:25,760
Speaker 1: two fifty next you say pure Talk. It's that simple.

490
00:30:25,960 --> 00:30:29,360
Speaker 1: You'll say fifty percent off your first month. That's pound

491
00:30:29,520 --> 00:30:32,080
Speaker 1: two five zero, and then say Pure Talk. One of

492
00:30:32,120 --> 00:30:34,680
Speaker 1: the Pure Talk customer service people be right there on

493
00:30:34,720 --> 00:30:37,640
Speaker 1: the phone to help you. And by the way, it's

494
00:30:37,760 --> 00:30:41,320
Speaker 1: legit thirty dollars a month on limited Talk text and

495
00:30:41,560 --> 00:30:45,360
Speaker 1: six gigs of David. You don't have to admit it.

496
00:30:45,480 --> 00:30:47,080
Speaker 1: I don't like to admit it, but I have to

497
00:30:47,080 --> 00:30:49,840
Speaker 1: admit it. I didn't know who Roger Waters was. Now

498
00:30:49,840 --> 00:30:52,840
Speaker 1: I've never been a huge Pink Floyd fan, but I'm

499
00:30:52,840 --> 00:30:55,400
Speaker 1: becoming one. Will you hear what he had to say

500
00:30:55,440 --> 00:30:58,400
Speaker 1: about Facebook and big tech? Coming up next hour on

501
00:30:58,400 --> 00:31:00,520
Speaker 1: the Rush Limbaugh Program. I am j Some Louis, the

502
00:31:00,600 --> 00:31:03,840
Speaker 1: talk show host formerly known as a Representative Lewis from

503
00:31:03,880 --> 00:31:08,520
Speaker 1: the Great State of Minnesota, otherwise known today has occupied territory.

504
00:31:08,840 --> 00:31:10,920
Speaker 1: Let's queen in a call at one eight hundred two

505
00:31:11,000 --> 00:31:13,040
Speaker 1: A two to eight eight two. Before we get to

506
00:31:13,120 --> 00:31:15,960
Speaker 1: Russia's take on these rising oil prices, we talked a

507
00:31:15,960 --> 00:31:18,520
Speaker 1: lot about that yesterday. I'll revisit it in a second,

508
00:31:18,760 --> 00:31:22,640
Speaker 1: but first, Watmo, Wisconsin. Edward, You're on the Russia Limbos

509
00:31:22,720 --> 00:31:28,760
Speaker 1: Show with me Jason Lewis. Good morning, Jason, say, I

510
00:31:28,800 --> 00:31:31,280
Speaker 1: hopefully I have enough time. I'd like to go into

511
00:31:31,280 --> 00:31:33,800
Speaker 1: the weeds a little bit with you, because you're such

512
00:31:33,800 --> 00:31:37,480
Speaker 1: a smart guy. It has to do with the budget

513
00:31:37,800 --> 00:31:41,640
Speaker 1: and budget reconciliation and all the games that the Democrats

514
00:31:41,680 --> 00:31:46,120
Speaker 1: are playing. I think that the Republicans now and in

515
00:31:46,160 --> 00:31:50,200
Speaker 1: the future have an opportunity in that they've always been

516
00:31:50,280 --> 00:31:54,800
Speaker 1: so timid about government shutdowns, and you know that you

517
00:31:54,960 --> 00:31:59,680
Speaker 1: make them look bad. My point is, I think that

518
00:31:59,720 --> 00:32:02,920
Speaker 1: we could start playing hardball with the Democrats, and with

519
00:32:03,080 --> 00:32:06,600
Speaker 1: such I won't list all the examples, but one in particular,

520
00:32:07,000 --> 00:32:11,720
Speaker 1: like stop defunding, defund planned parenthood, let them shut the

521
00:32:11,760 --> 00:32:15,880
Speaker 1: government down, because do you really think the average American

522
00:32:16,320 --> 00:32:20,160
Speaker 1: is going to care anymore that the government shuts down

523
00:32:20,360 --> 00:32:23,000
Speaker 1: after what we've gone through in the last the average

524
00:32:23,000 --> 00:32:27,840
Speaker 1: American doesn't care about infrastructure, especially when it's for green initiatives.

525
00:32:28,520 --> 00:32:32,000
Speaker 1: You're one hundred percent correct. There's a debt ceiling vote

526
00:32:32,000 --> 00:32:34,959
Speaker 1: coming up this summer. The Republicans should look back at

527
00:32:35,000 --> 00:32:37,720
Speaker 1: the Budget Control Act of twenty eleven and say, unless

528
00:32:37,840 --> 00:32:40,080
Speaker 1: you give us a plan to cut the deficit and

529
00:32:40,120 --> 00:32:42,520
Speaker 1: the debt, we are not going to raise the debt ceiling.

530
00:32:42,840 --> 00:32:45,400
Speaker 1: That's how you got c questration, which I voted to

531
00:32:45,480 --> 00:32:49,120
Speaker 1: keep when I was in Congress. The reconciliation debate is

532
00:32:49,160 --> 00:32:52,080
Speaker 1: all about getting around the filibuster. Now there's a fifty

533
00:32:52,160 --> 00:32:54,480
Speaker 1: fifty split. You got to have sixty votes to invoke

534
00:32:54,560 --> 00:32:57,800
Speaker 1: cloture to in debate. So the Democrats don't have that

535
00:32:57,920 --> 00:33:01,440
Speaker 1: for this radicalism. So they figure, well, we'll just put

536
00:33:01,480 --> 00:33:05,280
Speaker 1: everything in budget reconciliation, which is a mechanism in the

537
00:33:05,360 --> 00:33:09,160
Speaker 1: nineteen seventy four Budget and Empowerment Act to get a

538
00:33:09,280 --> 00:33:12,560
Speaker 1: budget passed. But it's not for minimum wage, it's not

539
00:33:12,640 --> 00:33:16,160
Speaker 1: for infrastructure. It's for a budget and a budget resolution.

540
00:33:16,240 --> 00:33:18,000
Speaker 1: I know, I served on the Budget committee and we

541
00:33:18,080 --> 00:33:22,080
Speaker 1: passed three budget resolutions when I was in Congress. So

542
00:33:22,640 --> 00:33:26,920
Speaker 1: the idea that they could use reconciliation to wrap everything

543
00:33:27,000 --> 00:33:29,800
Speaker 1: in there and have a fifty one forty nine vote

544
00:33:30,320 --> 00:33:33,720
Speaker 1: is fantasy because the Senate parliamentarian said, you can't do it. Now.

545
00:33:33,760 --> 00:33:36,080
Speaker 1: Here's where your point is really good, and that is

546
00:33:36,240 --> 00:33:39,000
Speaker 1: what in the hell are these Republicans doing to try

547
00:33:39,040 --> 00:33:42,760
Speaker 1: to make that easier. The five Republicans, you know, the Romney's,

548
00:33:42,800 --> 00:33:46,160
Speaker 1: the Sasses, the usual never Trumpers, the Portman's, you name it,

549
00:33:46,680 --> 00:33:50,360
Speaker 1: they're helping Biden get an infrastructure bill passed, and that way,

550
00:33:50,600 --> 00:33:54,000
Speaker 1: passing a budget resolution later with all the goodies in

551
00:33:54,040 --> 00:33:56,920
Speaker 1: the Christmas tree ornaments will be easier for the Democrats.

552
00:33:57,000 --> 00:34:01,520
Speaker 1: Why would they do that? Oh, so correct, You are

553
00:34:01,560 --> 00:34:05,160
Speaker 1: so correct. It makes no sense, but it just shows

554
00:34:05,200 --> 00:34:09,359
Speaker 1: you that in order to defeat socialists, you can't have defectors.

555
00:34:09,440 --> 00:34:13,040
Speaker 1: And the Republican Party has about twenty thirty forty percent

556
00:34:13,239 --> 00:34:16,160
Speaker 1: defection right now, and that's got to stop, or we

557
00:34:16,239 --> 00:34:18,359
Speaker 1: got to show them the door and say why don't

558
00:34:18,400 --> 00:34:21,920
Speaker 1: you join the party you've been helping ed, Thanks so much,

559
00:34:21,960 --> 00:34:24,640
Speaker 1: appreciate the call. Now, Rush talked a little bit about

560
00:34:24,640 --> 00:34:27,799
Speaker 1: oil prices, and we hit this hard yesterday. And when

561
00:34:27,800 --> 00:34:31,640
Speaker 1: it comes to these green energy nonsense, understand this. The

562
00:34:32,040 --> 00:34:36,759
Speaker 1: Democrats are pushing electric vehicles on America. Now, you can't

563
00:34:36,760 --> 00:34:39,320
Speaker 1: afford them. But if you're wealthy and you're a trust

564
00:34:39,320 --> 00:34:41,839
Speaker 1: fund brat out in San Francisco, you can afford them.

565
00:34:42,000 --> 00:34:45,360
Speaker 1: But you can't. But here you understand this. The Highway

566
00:34:45,400 --> 00:34:48,520
Speaker 1: Trust Fund, I was on transportation and infrastructure as well,

567
00:34:48,880 --> 00:34:53,480
Speaker 1: is broke. They don't have enough user fee revenue, so

568
00:34:53,520 --> 00:34:56,600
Speaker 1: they got to steal from general revenues to do something

569
00:34:56,600 --> 00:35:00,719
Speaker 1: that should be a user pay system. Guess who's getting

570
00:35:00,719 --> 00:35:04,640
Speaker 1: a free ride on this. The electric vehicles. They pay

571
00:35:04,719 --> 00:35:08,120
Speaker 1: no gasoline tax the primary funder. They get a seventy

572
00:35:08,160 --> 00:35:11,839
Speaker 1: five hundred dollars subsidy when folks buy them. And that's

573
00:35:11,840 --> 00:35:16,400
Speaker 1: what they want to expand, well, they want to. The

574
00:35:16,480 --> 00:35:18,239
Speaker 1: reason that they say that, the reason I bring this

575
00:35:18,320 --> 00:35:21,320
Speaker 1: up is every time oil prices spiked because we're basically

576
00:35:21,400 --> 00:35:25,200
Speaker 1: banning energy production, they say, we'll just drive an electric vehicle.

577
00:35:26,280 --> 00:35:29,320
Speaker 1: You'll have no roads then, folks. But here's why oil

578
00:35:29,360 --> 00:35:32,520
Speaker 1: prices didn't skyrocket, has of a couple of years ago

579
00:35:33,040 --> 00:35:36,360
Speaker 1: when Rush talked about it, the free flow of oil.

580
00:35:36,480 --> 00:35:41,000
Speaker 1: But market prices is the number one factor in a

581
00:35:41,160 --> 00:35:46,000
Speaker 1: stable economy in this country and most of the Western democracies.

582
00:35:46,640 --> 00:35:50,359
Speaker 1: You might not like hearing that, but it is. It's

583
00:35:50,440 --> 00:35:55,239
Speaker 1: why when Saddam Hossain went into Kuwait threatened to shut

584
00:35:55,280 --> 00:35:58,440
Speaker 1: down the oil, take it all over. We didn't waste

585
00:35:58,440 --> 00:36:02,800
Speaker 1: any time. George H. W. Bush dispatched troops. We could

586
00:36:02,840 --> 00:36:05,920
Speaker 1: not allow that to happen. The free flow of what.

587
00:36:06,080 --> 00:36:09,440
Speaker 1: I don't care what the climate change ninnies say. I

588
00:36:09,480 --> 00:36:13,160
Speaker 1: don't care what the anti fossil fuel crowd says. The

589
00:36:13,360 --> 00:36:18,600
Speaker 1: world functions on the free flow of oil at market prices.

590
00:36:19,200 --> 00:36:24,600
Speaker 1: Any interruption is a potential disaster. Any oversupply depresses prices.

591
00:36:24,640 --> 00:36:28,560
Speaker 1: It's a delicate balance. There's tons of it. The challenge

592
00:36:28,600 --> 00:36:32,800
Speaker 1: with the supply of oil is meeting the demand without

593
00:36:32,880 --> 00:36:36,360
Speaker 1: creating a whole bunch of surplus. It's a logistics problem.

594
00:36:36,400 --> 00:36:40,320
Speaker 1: It's a pleasant one to have. So with the United

595
00:36:40,360 --> 00:36:44,840
Speaker 1: States production rising, the Saudi production OPEC production is going

596
00:36:44,920 --> 00:36:47,640
Speaker 1: to have to be cut because the world supply is

597
00:36:47,640 --> 00:36:49,719
Speaker 1: what it is, the world demand is what it is.

598
00:36:50,200 --> 00:36:53,400
Speaker 1: If the US, because of the dominant position we have,

599
00:36:53,440 --> 00:36:56,200
Speaker 1: sets the price, the Saudis are going to have to accommodate.

600
00:36:56,239 --> 00:36:58,359
Speaker 1: So they might have been looking forward to cutting back

601
00:36:58,360 --> 00:37:02,239
Speaker 1: production anyway. If they didn't, priceless would collapse because there

602
00:37:02,239 --> 00:37:06,680
Speaker 1: would be way more supply than the world needed. Okay,

603
00:37:06,760 --> 00:37:08,680
Speaker 1: running a little late. Let's take a pause, come back,

604
00:37:08,719 --> 00:37:11,960
Speaker 1: wrap up our one tons more coming up on eib

605
00:37:13,680 --> 00:37:16,880
Speaker 1: Okay has promised. Wait till you hear what Pink Floyd's

606
00:37:17,040 --> 00:37:22,280
Speaker 1: Roger Waters said about Mark Zuckerberg and the Facebook, big tech,

607
00:37:22,960 --> 00:37:26,279
Speaker 1: you name it. Monopolies that are censoring Americans with whom

608
00:37:26,320 --> 00:37:30,279
Speaker 1: they disagree. This is absolutely choice. That's coming up next hour.

609
00:37:30,400 --> 00:37:33,040
Speaker 1: Also your calls as we continue on on the excellence

610
00:37:33,040 --> 00:37:38,040
Speaker 1: in broadcasting networks stick around now. I have to say, Gang,

611
00:37:38,160 --> 00:37:43,680
Speaker 1: it's not official. I can't verify this with one certainty,

612
00:37:43,760 --> 00:37:46,840
Speaker 1: but word has it that when Biden and Putin met,

613
00:37:47,080 --> 00:37:50,400
Speaker 1: the first words Joe Biden uttered were hey killer, And

614
00:37:50,560 --> 00:37:52,920
Speaker 1: that just seems odd. But I don't know. He already

615
00:37:52,920 --> 00:37:54,680
Speaker 1: called him that, so why not, Hey killer? How are

616
00:37:54,680 --> 00:37:59,080
Speaker 1: you doing? Come on, man, welcome back our two underway.

617
00:37:59,120 --> 00:38:01,400
Speaker 1: I've got good news and bad news. The good news

618
00:38:01,520 --> 00:38:04,759
Speaker 1: is the Biden Putin's summit didn't do any damage. The

619
00:38:04,800 --> 00:38:08,520
Speaker 1: bad news is Joe Biden plans to come back. I'd

620
00:38:08,560 --> 00:38:10,839
Speaker 1: tell you this is much ado about nothing. These these

621
00:38:10,840 --> 00:38:14,520
Speaker 1: things never never. I mean, I guess if you're talking about, um,

622
00:38:15,080 --> 00:38:18,560
Speaker 1: you know Kruscheff and Kennedy at Vienna that had a

623
00:38:18,640 --> 00:38:23,000
Speaker 1: huge impact on the future, Reagan and Gorbischoff, I suppose

624
00:38:23,920 --> 00:38:28,280
Speaker 1: at Raikovic or elsewhere. But these sorts of things usually

625
00:38:28,320 --> 00:38:31,360
Speaker 1: don't produce much in the media of them. But that's

626
00:38:31,360 --> 00:38:34,400
Speaker 1: that's really about it. But we'll keep you up to

627
00:38:34,480 --> 00:38:37,560
Speaker 1: date on all of that. Hey, remember when Lois Lerner,

628
00:38:37,600 --> 00:38:41,399
Speaker 1: who ran the tax exempt department for the IRS during

629
00:38:41,400 --> 00:38:47,040
Speaker 1: the Obama years, was targeting conservative organizations, So they had

630
00:38:47,080 --> 00:38:50,920
Speaker 1: weaponized the IRS sort of the way the FBI had

631
00:38:50,920 --> 00:38:55,680
Speaker 1: been weaponized against Trump and was illegally wire tapping political opponents.

632
00:38:56,800 --> 00:38:59,960
Speaker 1: Even though who Attorney John Durham is nowhere to be

633
00:39:00,040 --> 00:39:02,319
Speaker 1: found anymore? I don't know. I mentioned that yesterday. Where

634
00:39:02,360 --> 00:39:04,800
Speaker 1: the hell is this guy? The US attorney that's supposed

635
00:39:04,800 --> 00:39:10,760
Speaker 1: to be investigating and bringing charges on this anyway? December fourteenth,

636
00:39:10,760 --> 00:39:17,680
Speaker 1: twenty twelve, a liberal media outlet received Crossroads GPS. I

637
00:39:17,680 --> 00:39:22,240
Speaker 1: think that's Robe's outfit their application for tax exempt status.

638
00:39:24,040 --> 00:39:28,320
Speaker 1: Now why did a liberal media outlet receive this? Well,

639
00:39:28,360 --> 00:39:32,240
Speaker 1: the whole scandal was the IRS was targeting conservative organizations.

640
00:39:33,520 --> 00:39:38,960
Speaker 1: Guess who that liberal media outlet was? Pro Publica. Fast

641
00:39:39,000 --> 00:39:42,719
Speaker 1: forward twenty twenty one. Pro Publica receives thousands of IRS

642
00:39:42,840 --> 00:39:46,759
Speaker 1: returns publishing the wealthier ones, but they still have thousands

643
00:39:46,840 --> 00:39:50,839
Speaker 1: more has Apparently they've got a mole inside the IRS,

644
00:39:52,719 --> 00:39:57,160
Speaker 1: the same outfit I've been telling you, if we don't

645
00:39:57,200 --> 00:40:00,880
Speaker 1: do something about the permanent bureaucracy and the constant leaks,

646
00:40:01,080 --> 00:40:04,480
Speaker 1: and more importantly, the takings of sides in all of this.

647
00:40:06,480 --> 00:40:10,080
Speaker 1: At the behest of liberalism, we're not going to be

648
00:40:10,080 --> 00:40:13,880
Speaker 1: living in a free country much longer. And one of

649
00:40:13,880 --> 00:40:19,840
Speaker 1: the first hallmarks of freedom is the free press. Well, unfortunately,

650
00:40:20,640 --> 00:40:24,319
Speaker 1: we've never seen a move towards censorship the way we

651
00:40:24,360 --> 00:40:26,680
Speaker 1: have recently. And it's not just big tech, and I

652
00:40:26,680 --> 00:40:29,399
Speaker 1: want to get to that in a moment, but it's

653
00:40:29,480 --> 00:40:33,560
Speaker 1: also when it comes to book publishing. This is actually

654
00:40:33,600 --> 00:40:36,000
Speaker 1: a pretty big deal and nobody's talking about it, but

655
00:40:36,080 --> 00:40:41,360
Speaker 1: two veteran book publishing executives have now decided to launch

656
00:40:41,440 --> 00:40:45,879
Speaker 1: their own conservative publishing house called All Seasons Press. Now,

657
00:40:46,160 --> 00:40:49,799
Speaker 1: here's the deal on this. If the liberal left the

658
00:40:49,880 --> 00:40:53,359
Speaker 1: media is say, oh gosh, critical race theory and censorship

659
00:40:53,560 --> 00:40:58,640
Speaker 1: is just a figment of talk radio's imagination, why is

660
00:40:58,719 --> 00:41:03,120
Speaker 1: the former president and publisher of Simon and Schusters Gallery

661
00:41:03,200 --> 00:41:10,200
Speaker 1: Books and a former executive from Hatchet Book Group. Why

662
00:41:10,200 --> 00:41:14,840
Speaker 1: are they forming another publishing outfit to get conservative thoughts published?

663
00:41:15,040 --> 00:41:19,480
Speaker 1: If there isn't a problem with censorship. This is how

664
00:41:19,560 --> 00:41:28,160
Speaker 1: democracies die. Social media platforms, the universities, the media, publishers,

665
00:41:28,560 --> 00:41:32,640
Speaker 1: you name it. There is a move towards censoring ideas

666
00:41:32,719 --> 00:41:35,480
Speaker 1: we don't like, and it becomes very, very dangerous, and

667
00:41:35,520 --> 00:41:39,239
Speaker 1: it becomes ever more dangerous when you have monopolies doing it.

668
00:41:40,920 --> 00:41:45,040
Speaker 1: That's why in Ohio there's a lawsuit demanding that Google

669
00:41:45,200 --> 00:41:50,239
Speaker 1: be classified as a public utility and become regulated. Let

670
00:41:50,239 --> 00:41:52,320
Speaker 1: me tell you something, the same people that were bemoaning

671
00:41:52,400 --> 00:41:56,040
Speaker 1: Exxonmobile a few years ago for their market share are

672
00:41:56,080 --> 00:42:03,879
Speaker 1: strangely silent over Google's ninety six percent search engine market share.

673
00:42:03,960 --> 00:42:08,680
Speaker 1: Whatever it might be. Facebook and Instagram and Twitter and

674
00:42:08,719 --> 00:42:11,799
Speaker 1: all the rest of these These left wing trolls have

675
00:42:11,920 --> 00:42:15,359
Speaker 1: a control over what we say and do, and they

676
00:42:15,360 --> 00:42:19,239
Speaker 1: are common carriers, and they ought to be regulator. At

677
00:42:19,280 --> 00:42:22,040
Speaker 1: the very least Section two thirty ought to be repealed.

678
00:42:22,080 --> 00:42:24,879
Speaker 1: The Republicans could have done that in the NDAA bill,

679
00:42:25,040 --> 00:42:28,359
Speaker 1: but they chickened out during the president last president's lame

680
00:42:28,440 --> 00:42:32,120
Speaker 1: duck session. And don't think this is a figment of

681
00:42:32,160 --> 00:42:38,839
Speaker 1: the conservative's imagination. Get this from Pink Floyd's Roger waters Now.

682
00:42:38,880 --> 00:42:41,520
Speaker 1: Apparently last week in New York City, during a stand

683
00:42:41,560 --> 00:42:45,640
Speaker 1: with Julian Assange event calling for the release of Julian

684
00:42:45,680 --> 00:42:50,839
Speaker 1: Assange from prison, Pink Floyd co founder Roger Waters described

685
00:42:50,960 --> 00:42:54,439
Speaker 1: how he was asked, well, basically how he told Mark

686
00:42:54,560 --> 00:42:57,319
Speaker 1: Zuckerberg to go take a flying leap. Here's how it went.

687
00:42:57,719 --> 00:43:01,720
Speaker 1: It's a request for the rights to use my song

688
00:43:01,960 --> 00:43:05,080
Speaker 1: another brick in the world too, in the making of

689
00:43:05,120 --> 00:43:10,160
Speaker 1: a film to promote Instagram. So it's a missive from

690
00:43:10,200 --> 00:43:15,160
Speaker 1: Mark Zuckerberg to me with an offer of a huge,

691
00:43:15,760 --> 00:43:21,719
Speaker 1: huge amount of money. And the answer is few, no way.

692
00:43:23,480 --> 00:43:28,200
Speaker 1: And I only mentioned that because this is an insidious

693
00:43:28,640 --> 00:43:33,840
Speaker 1: it's the insidious movement of them to take over absolutely

694
00:43:33,920 --> 00:43:36,760
Speaker 1: everything you know, So I will not be a party

695
00:43:37,160 --> 00:43:41,880
Speaker 1: to this bullshit Zuckerberg. They want to use it to

696
00:43:42,040 --> 00:43:46,440
Speaker 1: make Facebook and Instagram even bigger and more powerful than

697
00:43:46,480 --> 00:43:50,040
Speaker 1: it already is, so that it can continue to censor

698
00:43:50,440 --> 00:43:55,480
Speaker 1: all of us in this room. Okay, Roger, don't sugarcoat it.

699
00:43:55,600 --> 00:43:58,520
Speaker 1: Give it to a straight and that's hilarious. And I

700
00:43:58,600 --> 00:44:01,000
Speaker 1: think there is an under you're starting to see it

701
00:44:01,040 --> 00:44:04,640
Speaker 1: from a few comedians John Stewart and Kevin Hart and others,

702
00:44:05,040 --> 00:44:10,399
Speaker 1: and now Roger Waters, who clearly believes in maybe even

703
00:44:10,400 --> 00:44:13,240
Speaker 1: a purist form of freedom. I mean, all the wiki

704
00:44:13,280 --> 00:44:16,400
Speaker 1: leaks data land on Julian Assange's desk he wants to

705
00:44:16,400 --> 00:44:20,080
Speaker 1: publish it. Now they put him in jail. So Water says, no,

706
00:44:20,200 --> 00:44:23,000
Speaker 1: you can't do that. So the guy's a purist when

707
00:44:23,000 --> 00:44:26,319
Speaker 1: it comes to liberty, and he sees a threat with

708
00:44:26,440 --> 00:44:31,080
Speaker 1: big tech because of what they're trying to do, and

709
00:44:31,239 --> 00:44:34,240
Speaker 1: what they are trying to do is monopolize the free

710
00:44:34,239 --> 00:44:39,799
Speaker 1: flow of ideas on behalf of state run media. They

711
00:44:39,800 --> 00:44:44,759
Speaker 1: are getting favors from the government for acting has their enforcer.

712
00:44:46,560 --> 00:44:50,840
Speaker 1: Every publisher out there can be sued for what they published,

713
00:44:50,920 --> 00:44:55,359
Speaker 1: not what they say. What they publish. So if they

714
00:44:55,360 --> 00:44:58,560
Speaker 1: publish my op ed and I slander somebody, not only

715
00:44:58,560 --> 00:45:02,160
Speaker 1: can I be sued, but the publisher the newspaper can

716
00:45:02,200 --> 00:45:08,000
Speaker 1: be sued, except if your Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, you name it.

717
00:45:08,680 --> 00:45:11,880
Speaker 1: They got an exemption in the Telecommunications Act of nineteen

718
00:45:11,960 --> 00:45:15,520
Speaker 1: ninety six called Section two thirty, which gave them immunity

719
00:45:15,840 --> 00:45:20,360
Speaker 1: because they were a neutral platform, taking on all commerce,

720
00:45:20,600 --> 00:45:24,439
Speaker 1: printing everything that came their way except their liars. They

721
00:45:24,480 --> 00:45:29,160
Speaker 1: now censor. They're censoring anybody that doesn't think the right way.

722
00:45:29,239 --> 00:45:31,759
Speaker 1: For instance, people that say, oh, I don't know the

723
00:45:31,800 --> 00:45:34,440
Speaker 1: coronavirus escape from a lab that was censored. Now they

724
00:45:34,440 --> 00:45:39,800
Speaker 1: happened to be wrong, but they don't care. Power corrupts,

725
00:45:39,800 --> 00:45:44,560
Speaker 1: and absolute power corrupts. Absolutely. This is Lord acton in progress,

726
00:45:45,640 --> 00:45:50,160
Speaker 1: so they're getting this favor from the government. The Republicans

727
00:45:50,200 --> 00:45:53,200
Speaker 1: in the National Defense Authorization Act had an opportunity to

728
00:45:53,320 --> 00:45:58,400
Speaker 1: repeal to thirty and they chickened out because they cared

729
00:45:58,440 --> 00:46:01,680
Speaker 1: more about plussing up the EOD, which is turning into

730
00:46:01,760 --> 00:46:04,880
Speaker 1: a politically correct version of the Department of Housing and

731
00:46:05,000 --> 00:46:10,680
Speaker 1: Urban Development, and spending more money for defense contractors than

732
00:46:10,800 --> 00:46:16,200
Speaker 1: they did in rectifying free speech. This is the Liz

733
00:46:16,320 --> 00:46:19,120
Speaker 1: Janey Ben Sassy wing of the Republican Party. All they

734
00:46:19,120 --> 00:46:21,840
Speaker 1: care about is tripling the Pentagon. Everything else can go

735
00:46:21,840 --> 00:46:24,560
Speaker 1: to hell in a hand basket. They don't care about debt.

736
00:46:25,080 --> 00:46:27,160
Speaker 1: I can tell you a famous member of Congress who

737
00:46:27,200 --> 00:46:29,160
Speaker 1: told me when I was in the halls of Congress,

738
00:46:29,280 --> 00:46:30,880
Speaker 1: I don't care about the debt as long as I

739
00:46:30,880 --> 00:46:34,400
Speaker 1: can get my increases for the Pentagon. And what's the

740
00:46:34,400 --> 00:46:37,879
Speaker 1: Pentagon doing now? The National Security Apparatus is not looking

741
00:46:37,880 --> 00:46:43,280
Speaker 1: out for national security. They're looking after you. Rush obviously

742
00:46:43,360 --> 00:46:46,480
Speaker 1: had this right when he talked about Facebook's problem not

743
00:46:46,560 --> 00:46:51,440
Speaker 1: long ago. Facebook is got a problem, and you know

744
00:46:51,600 --> 00:46:55,919
Speaker 1: any company that offers its services free. It means only

745
00:46:55,920 --> 00:47:00,319
Speaker 1: one thing. Means you are the customer. You're the product actually,

746
00:47:00,840 --> 00:47:04,160
Speaker 1: and you're the one being bought and sold. And that's

747
00:47:04,200 --> 00:47:08,400
Speaker 1: exactly how Facebook is structured. When it comes to Facebook.

748
00:47:08,880 --> 00:47:13,440
Speaker 1: We've had the soundbites here where Obama campaign people brag

749
00:47:14,400 --> 00:47:19,280
Speaker 1: about sucking of hoovering up all of the Facebook data

750
00:47:19,440 --> 00:47:22,880
Speaker 1: for Obama's reelection campaign in twenty twelve. And we've had

751
00:47:22,920 --> 00:47:26,480
Speaker 1: the New York Times stories talking about the geniuses in

752
00:47:26,600 --> 00:47:29,880
Speaker 1: the Obama campaign that maximize the usage of all this

753
00:47:30,000 --> 00:47:34,160
Speaker 1: Facebook data. Cambridge Analytica comes along and gets a measly

754
00:47:34,760 --> 00:47:37,720
Speaker 1: fifty million people worth of data and all of a sudden,

755
00:47:37,760 --> 00:47:44,320
Speaker 1: it's a crime. Whereas Zuckerberg openly, willingly worked with Obama

756
00:47:44,760 --> 00:47:48,239
Speaker 1: to provide all of the user data for all of

757
00:47:48,320 --> 00:47:51,400
Speaker 1: Facebook's users to the Obama campaign, and there was no

758
00:47:51,480 --> 00:47:53,640
Speaker 1: thought of it being criminal, There was no thought of

759
00:47:53,640 --> 00:47:59,239
Speaker 1: it violating federal election law, campaign finance, none of that.

760
00:47:59,440 --> 00:48:03,759
Speaker 1: It was pure genius. Did you see that Facebook, with

761
00:48:03,800 --> 00:48:06,720
Speaker 1: some of their apps has even found a way to

762
00:48:06,840 --> 00:48:10,040
Speaker 1: listen to you in your home. I've had people telling

763
00:48:10,080 --> 00:48:11,360
Speaker 1: me I don't know if this is true. I'm just

764
00:48:11,520 --> 00:48:13,560
Speaker 1: I've had people tell me they've been on the phone

765
00:48:13,600 --> 00:48:16,440
Speaker 1: talking with a friend and in the conversation they talked

766
00:48:16,440 --> 00:48:18,560
Speaker 1: about a place they might want to go to vacation,

767
00:48:19,200 --> 00:48:23,680
Speaker 1: and within hours on their phone, there's an ad for

768
00:48:23,840 --> 00:48:27,319
Speaker 1: that place. And they were talking on the phone, they

769
00:48:27,320 --> 00:48:31,360
Speaker 1: were not emailing or texting, and they didn't think anything

770
00:48:31,360 --> 00:48:34,480
Speaker 1: about it until they heard that Facebook might have been

771
00:48:34,520 --> 00:48:39,520
Speaker 1: able to listen to people through Facebook apps. No, your

772
00:48:39,560 --> 00:48:45,080
Speaker 1: phone has a microphone obviously, and your computer has a microphone. Now, Facebook,

773
00:48:45,560 --> 00:48:50,480
Speaker 1: the customers are the product. Facebook would sell everything they

774
00:48:50,600 --> 00:48:55,680
Speaker 1: learned about you to advertisers. Now, in politics, that is

775
00:48:55,719 --> 00:48:59,319
Speaker 1: a gold mine, there's no question. So here, this kid

776
00:48:59,600 --> 00:49:03,799
Speaker 1: goes goes to Harvard and creates as an advocation Facebook.

777
00:49:03,880 --> 00:49:07,520
Speaker 1: He's trying to meet girls. That the age old quest

778
00:49:07,560 --> 00:49:11,400
Speaker 1: of every guy meet girls. So he creates something called

779
00:49:11,480 --> 00:49:15,080
Speaker 1: the Facebook, and he's putting it together while he's a student,

780
00:49:15,120 --> 00:49:19,560
Speaker 1: and it grows and grows. Long before he had thirty,

781
00:49:19,680 --> 00:49:24,440
Speaker 1: he figured out that the real gold mine he had

782
00:49:25,760 --> 00:49:31,000
Speaker 1: was collecting every bit of information on every user he could.

783
00:49:31,560 --> 00:49:35,880
Speaker 1: He was himself hoovering up information. He wasn't providing anything

784
00:49:36,040 --> 00:49:39,839
Speaker 1: other than an opportunity for other people to connect with

785
00:49:39,880 --> 00:49:44,440
Speaker 1: each other. But he was did he have this idea

786
00:49:44,480 --> 00:49:47,720
Speaker 1: on his own or did one of his early investors

787
00:49:48,000 --> 00:49:52,160
Speaker 1: or did one of his friendsmen? But to me, it's

788
00:49:52,280 --> 00:49:56,040
Speaker 1: it's it's it's amazing. I know we have prodigies and

789
00:49:56,160 --> 00:49:59,439
Speaker 1: special people and people that are advanced way beyond their years.

790
00:50:00,000 --> 00:50:02,640
Speaker 1: But what Facebook has become, it's a just take away

791
00:50:02,680 --> 00:50:06,960
Speaker 1: the politics of it for a moment and the momentary controversies.

792
00:50:07,000 --> 00:50:11,319
Speaker 1: It's a massively successful, out of this world successful thing

793
00:50:11,480 --> 00:50:16,160
Speaker 1: creating an audience of two billion. Look at it that way,

794
00:50:16,800 --> 00:50:19,720
Speaker 1: an audience or two is nobody that's done that. Nobody

795
00:50:19,800 --> 00:50:23,759
Speaker 1: has that. CNN doesn't even have a million. And if

796
00:50:23,760 --> 00:50:26,040
Speaker 1: you take away the monopoly they have in the airports,

797
00:50:26,320 --> 00:50:29,600
Speaker 1: take away the pornographic star interviews, you practly have nothing

798
00:50:29,640 --> 00:50:34,520
Speaker 1: over there. And they're seasoned experts. You've got that right.

799
00:50:34,760 --> 00:50:37,960
Speaker 1: I'm Jason Lewis your guy today on the Russia Limbaugh Program.

Speaker 1: show hosts formerly No Has Congressman Lewis. Let's try to

807
00:51:02,000 --> 00:51:05,799
Speaker 1: squeeze in a call or two. Careers South Carolina, Dan,

808
00:51:06,000 --> 00:51:10,359
Speaker 1: you're on the Excellence and Broadcasting Network. Hey, Jason, how

809
00:51:10,360 --> 00:51:14,319
Speaker 1: are you doing? Good man? How are you good? So?

810
00:51:14,480 --> 00:51:16,719
Speaker 1: I'm twenty one years old. I'm I was born and

811
00:51:16,760 --> 00:51:19,600
Speaker 1: raised a Rush baby. So I had my parents back

812
00:51:19,600 --> 00:51:22,160
Speaker 1: in Ohio to thank for that. And if there's anything

813
00:51:22,200 --> 00:51:24,480
Speaker 1: Rush taught me, it's to, you know, think about how

814
00:51:24,520 --> 00:51:27,400
Speaker 1: current events today we'll play into my life in the

815
00:51:27,400 --> 00:51:30,600
Speaker 1: long run, right, how to think critically about that? So

816
00:51:30,680 --> 00:51:35,120
Speaker 1: I'm calling to talk about how our government really needs

817
00:51:35,120 --> 00:51:38,160
Speaker 1: to stop this frivolous spending so that the younger generation

818
00:51:38,239 --> 00:51:41,439
Speaker 1: like myself can afford houses. Would you like freestf doesn't

819
00:51:41,480 --> 00:51:46,920
Speaker 1: come from I'm sorry, don't you like freestuff? Yeah? But

820
00:51:47,040 --> 00:51:49,680
Speaker 1: not when I'm paying for it right for other people's

821
00:51:49,680 --> 00:51:53,480
Speaker 1: free stuff. Yeah. It really is amazing, isn't it. You

822
00:51:53,520 --> 00:51:56,520
Speaker 1: can't tax your way out of six trillion dollars. And

823
00:51:56,600 --> 00:51:59,799
Speaker 1: this is the problem for the Biden administration for liberalism

824
00:51:59,800 --> 00:52:03,480
Speaker 1: in general. For instance, the top one percent of income earners.

825
00:52:03,520 --> 00:52:05,720
Speaker 1: These are people closing in on half a million dollars

826
00:52:05,719 --> 00:52:08,759
Speaker 1: a year. Right, they make about twenty percent of the

827
00:52:08,840 --> 00:52:11,680
Speaker 1: nation's income, but pay forty percent of all the taxes.

828
00:52:12,080 --> 00:52:15,240
Speaker 1: If you were to confiscate all their wealth, you could

829
00:52:15,280 --> 00:52:18,720
Speaker 1: not balance the budget. And in fact, the top fifty

830
00:52:18,800 --> 00:52:21,319
Speaker 1: percent of income earners today in this country, the top

831
00:52:21,400 --> 00:52:25,880
Speaker 1: fifty percent pay ninety seven percent of all income taxes,

832
00:52:25,880 --> 00:52:28,520
Speaker 1: so the bottom fifty percent are paying about two point

833
00:52:28,560 --> 00:52:32,560
Speaker 1: eight percent, almost three percent. So literally, if they're going

834
00:52:32,600 --> 00:52:35,120
Speaker 1: to exempt all these people from taxes and just tax

835
00:52:35,160 --> 00:52:37,839
Speaker 1: the rest, it's not enough money to fund what they

836
00:52:37,880 --> 00:52:40,160
Speaker 1: want to fund. When you're looking at a blowout of

837
00:52:40,200 --> 00:52:43,760
Speaker 1: thirty trillion dollars in national debt six seven trillion dollars.

838
00:52:43,800 --> 00:52:45,840
Speaker 1: You when I was in Congress, the budget was four trillion.

839
00:52:46,320 --> 00:52:48,640
Speaker 1: Now it's six trillion. You can't keep this up. So

840
00:52:48,680 --> 00:52:51,360
Speaker 1: what they do is they say, we will tax, but

841
00:52:51,480 --> 00:52:55,520
Speaker 1: we won't tell Dan from Greer, South Carolina that we're

842
00:52:55,560 --> 00:52:59,040
Speaker 1: taxing him and his girlfriend or whatever. And here's how

843
00:52:59,080 --> 00:53:02,080
Speaker 1: they do it. They have the FED write a credit

844
00:53:02,200 --> 00:53:06,120
Speaker 1: on the Treasury's checkbook by monetizing the debt. So instead

845
00:53:06,160 --> 00:53:09,720
Speaker 1: of borrowing, which would which literally there isn't enough money.

846
00:53:10,000 --> 00:53:12,160
Speaker 1: Corporate debt is up. There's not enough people that could

847
00:53:12,200 --> 00:53:15,440
Speaker 1: lend the government this much money, even foreigners, without raising

848
00:53:15,480 --> 00:53:19,280
Speaker 1: interest rates. They monetize that. They print money. It's fiat money.

849
00:53:19,560 --> 00:53:23,319
Speaker 1: The Fed basically buys one hundred billion dollars worth of

850
00:53:23,400 --> 00:53:27,200
Speaker 1: government bonds, mortgage bonds, you name it, every month. And

851
00:53:27,280 --> 00:53:30,319
Speaker 1: when they do this poof money is created in thin air.

852
00:53:30,360 --> 00:53:33,719
Speaker 1: They financed all this spending. Where does the money go, Dan,

853
00:53:37,920 --> 00:53:41,399
Speaker 1: It's me, Well, it goes to bid up houses, goes

854
00:53:41,440 --> 00:53:43,879
Speaker 1: to bid up the price of gasoline, goes to bid

855
00:53:43,960 --> 00:53:46,759
Speaker 1: up grocery, lumber, you name it. We are in the

856
00:53:46,840 --> 00:53:49,000
Speaker 1: midst of a housing bubble. I think we're in the

857
00:53:49,000 --> 00:53:51,440
Speaker 1: midst of a stop market bubble and a bond bubble.

858
00:53:51,800 --> 00:53:54,440
Speaker 1: We are in the midst of prices going up faster

859
00:53:54,520 --> 00:53:58,440
Speaker 1: than they have core prices in thirty years. You are

860
00:53:58,480 --> 00:54:02,000
Speaker 1: being priced out of healthcare, of education, and of your

861
00:54:02,040 --> 00:54:06,960
Speaker 1: first house. That is a tax. Yeah. So the more

862
00:54:07,000 --> 00:54:10,000
Speaker 1: we spend, the higher, uh, the more expensive it's going

863
00:54:10,000 --> 00:54:13,400
Speaker 1: to be for um, myself and the rest of the

864
00:54:13,480 --> 00:54:16,799
Speaker 1: younger generation. To buy houses, and I don't think you know,

865
00:54:16,880 --> 00:54:20,120
Speaker 1: people my age really understand that. They don't. They don't.

866
00:54:20,120 --> 00:54:22,480
Speaker 1: In fact, this is the great disconnect in the media.

867
00:54:22,600 --> 00:54:25,839
Speaker 1: The media will report on the FED monetizing the debt

868
00:54:25,920 --> 00:54:29,000
Speaker 1: and federal reserve policy, but they will not report that

869
00:54:29,080 --> 00:54:33,840
Speaker 1: it is a direct consequence of spending. Every dollar the

870
00:54:33,920 --> 00:54:38,640
Speaker 1: government spends right now is an inflation tax because it's

871
00:54:38,680 --> 00:54:43,479
Speaker 1: funded through monetizing the deficit. So you are smarter than most.

872
00:54:43,560 --> 00:54:48,400
Speaker 1: You're connecting the two um the government can can can tax,

873
00:54:48,520 --> 00:54:50,440
Speaker 1: they can borrow, or they can print money. They're doing

874
00:54:50,480 --> 00:54:55,839
Speaker 1: a ladder, but that's still attacks. It's all attacks, right,

875
00:54:55,880 --> 00:54:57,759
Speaker 1: And I think this is just another way that the

876
00:54:57,840 --> 00:55:01,320
Speaker 1: Left is gonna end up ruining the American dream because

877
00:55:01,320 --> 00:55:04,000
Speaker 1: everyone you know, I was born and raised. I want

878
00:55:04,000 --> 00:55:05,960
Speaker 1: to buy a house. I want to live with my

879
00:55:06,000 --> 00:55:07,759
Speaker 1: family in that house. And I'm not going to be

880
00:55:07,800 --> 00:55:09,239
Speaker 1: able to do that, or it's going to be a

881
00:55:09,239 --> 00:55:11,520
Speaker 1: hell of a lot more expensive to do that in

882
00:55:11,560 --> 00:55:14,439
Speaker 1: the future because of their actions in Congress. I would

883
00:55:14,440 --> 00:55:17,880
Speaker 1: tell you what I think the Left as engineered the

884
00:55:17,960 --> 00:55:22,120
Speaker 1: greatest assault on young people in my lifetime. One point

885
00:55:22,160 --> 00:55:25,680
Speaker 1: six training and student loans for what for a college

886
00:55:25,719 --> 00:55:28,719
Speaker 1: degree that doesn't teach you how to operate a cash register.

887
00:55:29,680 --> 00:55:32,839
Speaker 1: These degrees are worthless in critical race theory and all

888
00:55:32,880 --> 00:55:37,160
Speaker 1: the other attendant social science degrees they can get. It

889
00:55:37,280 --> 00:55:40,240
Speaker 1: is a grand rip off for the benefit of people

890
00:55:40,360 --> 00:55:45,719
Speaker 1: working at the university, the deans, the professors, the diversity coordinators,

891
00:55:45,760 --> 00:55:48,120
Speaker 1: you name it. It is a and now they want

892
00:55:48,120 --> 00:55:50,759
Speaker 1: the taxpayer to pay off the bill. But you're still

893
00:55:50,760 --> 00:55:53,600
Speaker 1: stuck with a student loan for now. Healthcare and the

894
00:55:53,680 --> 00:55:56,120
Speaker 1: lack of real healthcare reform has priced you out of

895
00:55:56,160 --> 00:55:58,600
Speaker 1: buying insurance. You can't do it without a subsidy, and

896
00:55:58,680 --> 00:56:01,759
Speaker 1: even that doesn't keep up the price of gasoline and

897
00:56:01,800 --> 00:56:05,239
Speaker 1: the cost of an automobile. Second you, secondhand cars are

898
00:56:05,280 --> 00:56:08,960
Speaker 1: now skyrocketing and value because nobody can afford the first one,

899
00:56:09,040 --> 00:56:11,400
Speaker 1: and the chip shortage is driving up the price of

900
00:56:11,520 --> 00:56:17,359
Speaker 1: used cars. Groceries are going up, gasoline and housing. The

901
00:56:17,400 --> 00:56:20,880
Speaker 1: American dream for young people is simply out of reach

902
00:56:21,320 --> 00:56:24,719
Speaker 1: for anyone under thirty years old in America. This is

903
00:56:24,719 --> 00:56:29,200
Speaker 1: a direct consequence of a profligate government spending too much money,

904
00:56:29,560 --> 00:56:34,880
Speaker 1: and nobody admits it except you. Yeah, and it's just

905
00:56:35,160 --> 00:56:39,000
Speaker 1: totally devaluing the dollar and it's it just makes me.

906
00:56:39,080 --> 00:56:41,759
Speaker 1: It just it's just sad. See a country that I

907
00:56:41,800 --> 00:56:45,319
Speaker 1: grew up with that I love and stuff, just you know, well,

908
00:56:45,320 --> 00:56:47,960
Speaker 1: how come? How? Why is it? Then? Millennials don't get it.

909
00:56:50,880 --> 00:56:53,359
Speaker 1: I'll tell you a lot of people just don't want

910
00:56:53,360 --> 00:56:55,400
Speaker 1: to hear it. I'll try to talk to some of

911
00:56:55,440 --> 00:56:57,200
Speaker 1: my friends about it and they're like, oh, yeah, that's

912
00:56:57,200 --> 00:57:01,400
Speaker 1: just all that political craft, and I like, this affects

913
00:57:01,400 --> 00:57:04,680
Speaker 1: your life. Now, next time somebody says that in they're

914
00:57:04,719 --> 00:57:08,000
Speaker 1: advocating in some program, ask them where are you going

915
00:57:08,080 --> 00:57:10,840
Speaker 1: to get the money. This is a question every American

916
00:57:10,920 --> 00:57:14,160
Speaker 1: ought to ask, every politician and every liberal hack out

917
00:57:14,160 --> 00:57:16,320
Speaker 1: there in the news media. Okay, we're gonna spend money

918
00:57:16,360 --> 00:57:18,800
Speaker 1: on infrastructure at one point two trillion dollars is the

919
00:57:18,840 --> 00:57:21,520
Speaker 1: latest compromise? Great, were you going to get it? Where

920
00:57:21,520 --> 00:57:26,400
Speaker 1: are you gonna get it? They have not a clue.

921
00:57:27,320 --> 00:57:30,640
Speaker 1: We roll on for more broadcast excellence on the Excellence

922
00:57:30,640 --> 00:57:33,200
Speaker 1: in Broadcasting Network. I am Jason those guiding you through

923
00:57:33,240 --> 00:57:37,480
Speaker 1: another edition of the Rush Limbaugh Program. You know, we

924
00:57:37,560 --> 00:57:40,480
Speaker 1: got to get to the COVID lockdowns, which more and

925
00:57:40,560 --> 00:57:44,920
Speaker 1: more now are are seeing for what they were taking

926
00:57:44,960 --> 00:57:49,600
Speaker 1: a public health challenge and exploiting it for political expediency,

927
00:57:49,680 --> 00:57:53,640
Speaker 1: which culminated by the way in the in the revising

928
00:57:53,760 --> 00:57:57,360
Speaker 1: of state election law by officials who had no business

929
00:57:57,440 --> 00:58:01,800
Speaker 1: doing that, primarily secretaries of State, is especially acute. In Minnesota.

930
00:58:02,000 --> 00:58:04,600
Speaker 1: No one did anything about it, and it resulted in

931
00:58:05,760 --> 00:58:09,439
Speaker 1: this is gonna shock you is this is it doesn't

932
00:58:09,440 --> 00:58:14,440
Speaker 1: matter where you live in an urban area, but in Minneapolis,

933
00:58:14,440 --> 00:58:19,000
Speaker 1: Saint Paul Minneapolis sits in Hennepin County, Saint Paul sits

934
00:58:19,000 --> 00:58:22,600
Speaker 1: in Ramsey County. Shockingly, it's the counties are just filled

935
00:58:22,600 --> 00:58:26,400
Speaker 1: with patriots. I mean, you think ellen Omar's district hates America,

936
00:58:26,440 --> 00:58:30,680
Speaker 1: o contraire, they're patriots. Why they had an eighty three

937
00:58:30,840 --> 00:58:35,840
Speaker 1: percent turnout in the twenty twenty elections, ditto for Ramsey County.

938
00:58:36,240 --> 00:58:39,959
Speaker 1: Record turnouts didn't have anything to do with the fact

939
00:58:40,400 --> 00:58:45,200
Speaker 1: that Secretary of State Steve Simon illegally redid election law,

940
00:58:45,640 --> 00:58:50,600
Speaker 1: extended deadlines, ended witness signatures so that we could identify people,

941
00:58:51,760 --> 00:58:54,000
Speaker 1: and they looked the other way. All of the officials

942
00:58:54,000 --> 00:58:56,480
Speaker 1: looked the other way as ballad harvesting was going on.

943
00:58:57,320 --> 00:59:01,920
Speaker 1: And this all came about, by the way, because we

944
00:59:02,000 --> 00:59:03,800
Speaker 1: just had to do something in the face of the

945
00:59:03,840 --> 00:59:06,640
Speaker 1: lockdowns and the coronavirus to allow people to vote without

946
00:59:06,680 --> 00:59:09,560
Speaker 1: actually proving who they were and getting to the polls

947
00:59:09,600 --> 00:59:13,560
Speaker 1: like normal Americans would. It used to be had to

948
00:59:13,600 --> 00:59:15,640
Speaker 1: jump through a hoop or two to vote, because it

949
00:59:15,760 --> 00:59:18,120
Speaker 1: wasn't only a right, it was also seen as a privilege.

950
00:59:19,360 --> 00:59:24,000
Speaker 1: Now it's like, you know, have ballot, will travel well.

951
00:59:24,080 --> 00:59:28,960
Speaker 1: The other the other hit from the lockdown was, of

952
00:59:29,000 --> 00:59:32,760
Speaker 1: course the economic calamity, and there was a fellow I

953
00:59:32,760 --> 00:59:38,600
Speaker 1: think it was Andy Purdzer, excuse me, Pudzer, former CEO

954
00:59:38,640 --> 00:59:42,200
Speaker 1: of c k A Restaurants c k E Restaurants, writing

955
00:59:42,400 --> 00:59:47,640
Speaker 1: in his book The Capitalists Comeback. I think no, that

956
00:59:47,680 --> 00:59:50,040
Speaker 1: was an old book. This was in the Journal, I believe, regardless.

957
00:59:50,400 --> 00:59:53,680
Speaker 1: He writes, from March one through August thirty first, nearly

958
00:59:53,720 --> 00:59:58,080
Speaker 1: one hundred thousand businesses listed on Yelp had closed permanently

959
00:59:58,400 --> 01:00:01,880
Speaker 1: due to the lockdowns. That's five hundred a day. The

960
01:00:01,960 --> 01:00:05,560
Speaker 1: National Restaurant Association one hundred and ten thousand restaurants have

961
01:00:05,680 --> 01:00:11,160
Speaker 1: permanently closed. We devastated this country, but they locked down.

962
01:00:11,240 --> 01:00:15,600
Speaker 1: That was there for political expediency by the power hungry

963
01:00:15,680 --> 01:00:18,200
Speaker 1: left and their allies in the media and on big tech.

964
01:00:18,280 --> 01:00:21,520
Speaker 1: By the way, some companies did very very well, Amazon

965
01:00:23,920 --> 01:00:26,760
Speaker 1: online companies, they did very well. Just so happens they

966
01:00:26,760 --> 01:00:30,120
Speaker 1: support democrats. I happened to be a coincidence. Well, it

967
01:00:30,200 --> 01:00:34,160
Speaker 1: wasn't just these restaurants and small mom and pop businesses.

968
01:00:34,160 --> 01:00:36,280
Speaker 1: And this is why I sued the governor of Minnesota

969
01:00:36,400 --> 01:00:39,080
Speaker 1: when I was running for the Senate to reopen. This

970
01:00:39,200 --> 01:00:42,320
Speaker 1: is why I defied the lockdown and campaigned anyway when

971
01:00:42,320 --> 01:00:47,600
Speaker 1: I was running for the Senate, because it was basically

972
01:00:47,560 --> 01:00:51,560
Speaker 1: I had the boot on every small businessman or woman's throat.

973
01:00:52,840 --> 01:00:56,000
Speaker 1: And it happened all over the country, and malls, shopping

974
01:00:56,080 --> 01:01:00,919
Speaker 1: malls took a massive hit because nobody could go back.

975
01:01:00,920 --> 01:01:03,520
Speaker 1: In April of last year, here's how Rush described that.

976
01:01:03,960 --> 01:01:08,920
Speaker 1: So Catherine and I were chatting about the Daily Brief

977
01:01:09,200 --> 01:01:16,000
Speaker 1: yesterday after the President announced the phased reopening plan for

978
01:01:16,040 --> 01:01:20,840
Speaker 1: the country. And it has to happen, folks, there is

979
01:01:21,280 --> 01:01:25,600
Speaker 1: no delaying this any further. And you see all over

980
01:01:25,640 --> 01:01:30,240
Speaker 1: the country now people are revolting against certain state governors

981
01:01:30,240 --> 01:01:35,520
Speaker 1: who want to maintain lockdown. It can't go on. This

982
01:01:36,320 --> 01:01:42,480
Speaker 1: forced shutdown, the forced ruination of the United States economy

983
01:01:42,960 --> 01:01:47,600
Speaker 1: must end. And I can't tell you I was longing

984
01:01:48,360 --> 01:01:52,880
Speaker 1: for that day yesterday. I've tried, during the course of

985
01:01:53,000 --> 01:01:59,280
Speaker 1: every day's busy broadcast, I have tried to convey my

986
01:01:59,440 --> 01:02:06,640
Speaker 1: concern and fear for you, for all of us, for everybody,

987
01:02:06,760 --> 01:02:09,840
Speaker 1: And I've been there. I don't know how many of

988
01:02:09,880 --> 01:02:15,080
Speaker 1: the people who are among our experts setting politics, I

989
01:02:15,080 --> 01:02:17,640
Speaker 1: don't know how many of them have been broke. I

990
01:02:17,680 --> 01:02:20,800
Speaker 1: don't know how many of them have been where twenty

991
01:02:20,840 --> 01:02:25,200
Speaker 1: two million Americans are without a job, without any income

992
01:02:25,800 --> 01:02:28,920
Speaker 1: and unemployment compensation. That just will not get it done.

993
01:02:28,960 --> 01:02:31,400
Speaker 1: I don't know how many there may be. I'm sure

994
01:02:31,920 --> 01:02:34,280
Speaker 1: that the law of averages would dictate some have been there,

995
01:02:34,840 --> 01:02:37,800
Speaker 1: and I think that way too many people in some

996
01:02:37,880 --> 01:02:42,840
Speaker 1: positions of authority and power really don't face dire economic

997
01:02:42,880 --> 01:02:45,840
Speaker 1: circumstances like an increasing number of the American people do.

998
01:02:46,400 --> 01:02:50,760
Speaker 1: There may be great risk in reopening the country in phases.

999
01:02:51,280 --> 01:02:54,720
Speaker 1: There may be great risk in sending people back out

1000
01:02:54,800 --> 01:02:58,320
Speaker 1: to start working. Even under the guidelines. There are risks

1001
01:02:58,360 --> 01:03:03,760
Speaker 1: that have to be taken, making risks, entrepreneurism, fearlessness, it's

1002
01:03:03,760 --> 01:03:08,280
Speaker 1: a hallmark of the American identity and of the American culture,

1003
01:03:08,320 --> 01:03:12,960
Speaker 1: and this shutdown and hunkering down in total fear is

1004
01:03:13,080 --> 01:03:18,960
Speaker 1: not a hallmark of American history or of American culture.

1005
01:03:19,440 --> 01:03:21,920
Speaker 1: I know that some governors are pushing back on Trump's

1006
01:03:21,920 --> 01:03:25,840
Speaker 1: guidelines to reopen the economy. Some governors are not pushing back.

1007
01:03:25,840 --> 01:03:28,200
Speaker 1: I'm gonna tell you what's going to happen here because

1008
01:03:28,200 --> 01:03:30,920
Speaker 1: I saw it. I noticed it yesterday. We needed to

1009
01:03:30,960 --> 01:03:34,919
Speaker 1: start talking about reopening the economy. The most abnormal thing

1010
01:03:34,960 --> 01:03:37,880
Speaker 1: in the world is to have the US economy shut

1011
01:03:38,040 --> 01:03:41,480
Speaker 1: down to the tune of losing. I mean, we took

1012
01:03:41,480 --> 01:03:45,479
Speaker 1: a twenty two trillion dollar economy and inside of four

1013
01:03:45,560 --> 01:03:48,840
Speaker 1: weeks we put twenty two million people out of work.

1014
01:03:49,760 --> 01:03:53,680
Speaker 1: You talk about abnormal, and it was running the risk

1015
01:03:53,840 --> 01:03:57,720
Speaker 1: the longer it went on, shutting down the economy, having

1016
01:03:57,760 --> 01:04:02,600
Speaker 1: people stay at home, have cities b ghost. You know,

1017
01:04:03,120 --> 01:04:08,520
Speaker 1: never before, to Russia's point, had any government done this. Yes,

1018
01:04:08,560 --> 01:04:11,880
Speaker 1: and that includes the Spanish flu of nineteen seventeen, nineteen eighteen.

1019
01:04:12,200 --> 01:04:14,760
Speaker 1: Had you had tens of thousands of people still going

1020
01:04:14,800 --> 01:04:19,520
Speaker 1: to football games during the Spanish flu epidemic. Eisenhower's I

1021
01:04:19,560 --> 01:04:23,000
Speaker 1: mentioned yesterday, went through a horrible, horrible flu season in

1022
01:04:23,120 --> 01:04:26,160
Speaker 1: nineteen fifty seven, there was I believe, what was it,

1023
01:04:26,240 --> 01:04:29,520
Speaker 1: the Hong Kong flu in sixty eight. All of those

1024
01:04:29,560 --> 01:04:33,520
Speaker 1: strains are still with us. In fact, when you take

1025
01:04:33,560 --> 01:04:37,040
Speaker 1: a look at all of the flu deaths worldwide every

1026
01:04:37,040 --> 01:04:43,000
Speaker 1: single year, it's every bit has many who died of corona.

1027
01:04:43,200 --> 01:04:45,400
Speaker 1: This is going to be with us in various forms,

1028
01:04:45,440 --> 01:04:48,160
Speaker 1: although I think it's going to be they're gonna be mitigated.

1029
01:04:48,560 --> 01:04:52,680
Speaker 1: The variance will be less lethal, but not at one

1030
01:04:52,840 --> 01:04:55,640
Speaker 1: including H one N one a few years ago. But

1031
01:04:55,760 --> 01:04:58,400
Speaker 1: not in sixty eight, fifty seven, nineteen eighteen did we

1032
01:04:58,440 --> 01:05:01,479
Speaker 1: ever lock down the economy. What we did are three

1033
01:05:01,600 --> 01:05:05,800
Speaker 1: fundamental things that we departed from in this particular agenda

1034
01:05:05,880 --> 01:05:09,160
Speaker 1: because they wanted to exploit this for political gain. They

1035
01:05:09,160 --> 01:05:11,520
Speaker 1: wanted to blame Trump, they wanted to punish the enemies

1036
01:05:11,520 --> 01:05:13,560
Speaker 1: with a lockdown, and they wanted to win the election.

1037
01:05:15,240 --> 01:05:19,440
Speaker 1: If you look at history, number one, they make public

1038
01:05:19,520 --> 01:05:25,160
Speaker 1: health recommendations, they don't make mandates. Number two, they protect

1039
01:05:25,240 --> 01:05:28,640
Speaker 1: the vulnerable, they don't infect them in nursing homes. And

1040
01:05:28,840 --> 01:05:33,080
Speaker 1: number three, they let everybody else, including young kids, go

1041
01:05:33,160 --> 01:05:38,600
Speaker 1: about their lives. We did the opposite this time. God

1042
01:05:38,640 --> 01:05:42,680
Speaker 1: may forgive these people that infected nursing homes, these governors,

1043
01:05:42,680 --> 01:05:47,200
Speaker 1: these liberal governors. God may forgive these people that tormented

1044
01:05:47,280 --> 01:05:51,880
Speaker 1: children for a year and ruined their last year in

1045
01:05:51,960 --> 01:05:56,840
Speaker 1: high school, their first grade. There is an epidemic of

1046
01:05:57,000 --> 01:06:03,000
Speaker 1: depression amongst adolescents today directly result of these lockdowns. It

1047
01:06:03,040 --> 01:06:05,360
Speaker 1: was a form of child abuse. Let me be clear.

1048
01:06:05,440 --> 01:06:07,120
Speaker 1: I'll repeat it just in case you didn't hear me.

1049
01:06:07,280 --> 01:06:10,160
Speaker 1: It was a form of child abuse. And none of

1050
01:06:10,160 --> 01:06:12,920
Speaker 1: it was necessary. We were going to flatten the curve

1051
01:06:13,120 --> 01:06:17,160
Speaker 1: for fifteen, maybe thirty days, so that hospital capacity, which

1052
01:06:17,280 --> 01:06:22,040
Speaker 1: was never in danger of running thin, wouldn't do so.

1053
01:06:23,000 --> 01:06:25,640
Speaker 1: Once that was done, this economy should have been opened

1054
01:06:25,640 --> 01:06:27,840
Speaker 1: a year ago, as I said on the campaign trail,

1055
01:06:28,120 --> 01:06:32,600
Speaker 1: as the President said, as Rush said. Instead, they have tormented,

1056
01:06:32,760 --> 01:06:37,120
Speaker 1: they have punished, they have violated every damn civil liberty

1057
01:06:37,160 --> 01:06:40,720
Speaker 1: that we've come to expect in the name of power.

1058
01:06:42,640 --> 01:06:45,920
Speaker 1: This is a scandal of untold proportion. History will not

1059
01:06:46,000 --> 01:06:50,560
Speaker 1: be kind to these Democrat governors, the Biden administration, and

1060
01:06:50,680 --> 01:06:54,200
Speaker 1: the news media who basically served as their enforcers. I'm

1061
01:06:54,280 --> 01:06:57,240
Speaker 1: Jason Lewis guiding you through another edition of the Russia

1062
01:06:57,280 --> 01:07:02,720
Speaker 1: limbab program. Oh and before we continue, let me remind

1063
01:07:02,760 --> 01:07:06,040
Speaker 1: you that you can start saving right now if you're

1064
01:07:06,080 --> 01:07:08,760
Speaker 1: refinancing your mortgage. Now, let me tell you something. Rush

1065
01:07:08,880 --> 01:07:13,200
Speaker 1: recommended this to us. American Financing. This is the company

1066
01:07:13,240 --> 01:07:17,080
Speaker 1: that puts your needs first. American Financing is the family

Speaker 1: As a homeowner, one of the activities you don't want

1071
01:07:31,480 --> 01:07:34,680
Speaker 1: to miss out on is accessing lower interest mortgage rates

1072
01:07:35,120 --> 01:07:37,720

1087
01:08:34,680 --> 01:08:38,080
Speaker 1: The press is going gaga, but Putin is pushing back

1088
01:08:38,120 --> 01:08:41,280
Speaker 1: as good as he gets, not from Biden, from the medium.

1089
01:08:41,600 --> 01:08:43,400
Speaker 1: They've got to carry the water for Joe, you see.

1090
01:08:43,680 --> 01:08:46,839
Speaker 1: But it is fascinating every time. As I mentioned earlier,

1091
01:08:46,920 --> 01:08:50,040
Speaker 1: Putin gets pushed on are you a killer? As Joe

1092
01:08:50,040 --> 01:08:52,800
Speaker 1: Biden says, are you knocking off your political opponents? What

1093
01:08:52,840 --> 01:08:56,920
Speaker 1: about this assassination or this assassination? He pushes right back,

1094
01:08:56,920 --> 01:08:59,840
Speaker 1: and at a press conference he had a really interesting

1095
01:09:00,040 --> 01:09:02,519
Speaker 1: answer to this notion that are you knocking off your

1096
01:09:02,560 --> 01:09:06,720
Speaker 1: political opponents? On the question of who is murdering whom?

1097
01:09:06,920 --> 01:09:11,040
Speaker 1: People riot it and went into the Congress in the

1098
01:09:11,160 --> 01:09:17,400
Speaker 1: US with political demands, and many people were decayed as criminals,

1099
01:09:17,400 --> 01:09:22,400
Speaker 1: and they are threatened with imprisonment from twenty to twenty

1100
01:09:22,439 --> 01:09:27,439
Speaker 1: five years on what grounds. We don't know. One of

1101
01:09:27,520 --> 01:09:34,240
Speaker 1: the but we're just shot on the spot. I'm unarmed

1102
01:09:34,280 --> 01:09:38,160
Speaker 1: as well. Now this is fascinating because you have to

1103
01:09:38,160 --> 01:09:42,000
Speaker 1: take a look at this somewhat objectively, something impossible for

1104
01:09:42,080 --> 01:09:46,760
Speaker 1: today's Democrat media complex, and that is this. Imagine you

1105
01:09:46,840 --> 01:09:50,040
Speaker 1: had a January sixth, oh, I don't know, in Tenement Square,

1106
01:09:51,000 --> 01:09:54,639
Speaker 1: or imagine you had it in Moscow and you had

1107
01:09:54,720 --> 01:09:58,320
Speaker 1: a group of people and no one's condoning breaking the law.

1108
01:09:58,400 --> 01:10:01,559
Speaker 1: I don't want to traumatize anybody, but just to say,

1109
01:10:01,600 --> 01:10:03,719
Speaker 1: you've got a group of people that have been fed

1110
01:10:03,840 --> 01:10:07,400
Speaker 1: up with a government not being responsive to their needs,

1111
01:10:07,720 --> 01:10:11,320
Speaker 1: or half of half the country not being represented. At

1112
01:10:11,360 --> 01:10:13,880
Speaker 1: least that's how they feel, and so they go overboard.

1113
01:10:14,920 --> 01:10:19,160
Speaker 1: They demonstrate, they knocked down a few doors. They don't

1114
01:10:19,200 --> 01:10:22,559
Speaker 1: have any weapons, They look kind of goofy in these

1115
01:10:22,560 --> 01:10:25,800
Speaker 1: funny hats, but that's what they do. And you don't

1116
01:10:25,880 --> 01:10:28,120
Speaker 1: have to justify breaking a lot. I wouldn't do it.

1117
01:10:28,200 --> 01:10:30,800
Speaker 1: I served in Congress. I wouldn't want people rushing onto

1118
01:10:30,840 --> 01:10:33,559
Speaker 1: the floor. But I have to say, watching what I saw,

1119
01:10:33,640 --> 01:10:36,800
Speaker 1: I also wouldn't have been cowering under the desk. But

1120
01:10:36,840 --> 01:10:41,679
Speaker 1: the point is, had that happened in Moscow, and someone

1121
01:10:41,840 --> 01:10:45,479
Speaker 1: was shot by the wouldn't have been the KGB but

1122
01:10:45,560 --> 01:10:50,519
Speaker 1: the security forces in Moscow, and then people were charged

1123
01:10:50,520 --> 01:10:57,360
Speaker 1: and imprisoned without due process in Moscow. What do you

1124
01:10:57,360 --> 01:11:01,720
Speaker 1: think our response would be over what Putin did? This

1125
01:11:01,800 --> 01:11:03,559
Speaker 1: is not a defense of Putin. This is trying to

1126
01:11:03,600 --> 01:11:07,760
Speaker 1: get people to look objectively on another country or on

1127
01:11:07,800 --> 01:11:11,320
Speaker 1: another politician the way they look on ours. We've become

1128
01:11:11,400 --> 01:11:16,640
Speaker 1: so distorted by this anti Trump hysteria that's infected the

1129
01:11:16,680 --> 01:11:20,160
Speaker 1: bloodstream of American politics that we can't see things for

1130
01:11:20,240 --> 01:11:25,880
Speaker 1: what they are. You would. I mean, I'm telling you

1131
01:11:25,920 --> 01:11:28,679
Speaker 1: the very people that are calling for the heads of

1132
01:11:28,720 --> 01:11:31,840
Speaker 1: every protest or convicted of trust passing, where are the

1133
01:11:31,880 --> 01:11:36,639
Speaker 1: insurrection charges? Why is it that some people are being

1134
01:11:36,720 --> 01:11:40,600
Speaker 1: charged and others who are at that event on January

1135
01:11:40,640 --> 01:11:43,800
Speaker 1: sixth are not being charged. Why is it we can't

1136
01:11:43,800 --> 01:11:47,920
Speaker 1: get the videotapes who shot the woman that died the

1137
01:11:47,960 --> 01:11:52,960
Speaker 1: Air Force veteran. If this were to happen in Beijing

1138
01:11:53,160 --> 01:11:56,240
Speaker 1: or Hong Kong, if it were to happen in Moscow,

1139
01:11:56,760 --> 01:11:59,639
Speaker 1: the same people calling for the heads of the January

1140
01:11:59,720 --> 01:12:07,439
Speaker 1: sixth insurrectionists would be absolutely defending them. And that's what

1141
01:12:07,520 --> 01:12:10,559
Speaker 1: Putin is saying, and I think it's just very very

1142
01:12:10,600 --> 01:12:13,240
Speaker 1: interesting where he's coming from on this. We'll keep you

1143
01:12:13,320 --> 01:12:16,080
Speaker 1: up to date as to whether Joe Biden's got a

1144
01:12:16,160 --> 01:12:18,200
Speaker 1: come back to this. He's the one that called him killer,

1145
01:12:18,280 --> 01:12:20,519
Speaker 1: so that ought to be interesting. But I wouldn't hold

1146
01:12:20,560 --> 01:12:23,200
Speaker 1: your breath one eight hundred two eight two to eight

1147
01:12:23,280 --> 01:12:26,880
Speaker 1: eight two. Let's squeeze in a call from Dartmouth, Massachusetts. George,

1148
01:12:26,920 --> 01:12:30,639
Speaker 1: you're up next time. Yeah, And you're making the point

1149
01:12:30,680 --> 01:12:32,800
Speaker 1: that I want to make as well, and that is,

1150
01:12:33,040 --> 01:12:35,879
Speaker 1: to me, the crisis is the media because they continue

1151
01:12:35,920 --> 01:12:39,479
Speaker 1: with these narratives and playing up these false narratives, and

1152
01:12:39,640 --> 01:12:42,800
Speaker 1: now foreign leaders are using them just like Putin is

1153
01:12:42,880 --> 01:12:45,760
Speaker 1: using here. It's exactly what happened. A woman comes in,

1154
01:12:45,840 --> 01:12:48,040
Speaker 1: goes through the window and is killed. That's what they

1155
01:12:48,080 --> 01:12:51,000
Speaker 1: do to dissidents in other countries. And even a couple

1156
01:12:51,040 --> 01:12:54,080
Speaker 1: months ago when China was some ambassadors were talking to

1157
01:12:54,640 --> 01:12:57,040
Speaker 1: the US and the US was complaining to China about

1158
01:12:57,080 --> 01:12:59,599
Speaker 1: human rights issues, and they turn their tables right back

1159
01:12:59,600 --> 01:13:02,360
Speaker 1: on the Amans and saying, hey, aren't you the racist country?

1160
01:13:02,400 --> 01:13:05,200
Speaker 1: Aren't you the ones who can't get rid of racism?

1161
01:13:05,640 --> 01:13:08,040
Speaker 1: So and you're gonna tell us about human rights. And

1162
01:13:08,080 --> 01:13:11,280
Speaker 1: that's the media playing up these false narratives about us

1163
01:13:11,320 --> 01:13:14,519
Speaker 1: being racist about what happened at the Capitol, and now

1164
01:13:14,560 --> 01:13:17,960
Speaker 1: it's fodder for these leaders, which is extremely dangerous. You

1165
01:13:18,040 --> 01:13:21,000
Speaker 1: do not have to condone what happened at the Capitol

1166
01:13:21,040 --> 01:13:26,880
Speaker 1: on January sixth to realize any comparison to nine eleven

1167
01:13:27,640 --> 01:13:32,320
Speaker 1: is so fraught with hyperbole and bias and hand ringing

1168
01:13:32,760 --> 01:13:35,520
Speaker 1: that it ought to be laughed right out of any newsroom.

1169
01:13:35,560 --> 01:13:38,559
Speaker 1: And yet that's what they're doing. That's like Merrick Garland

1170
01:13:38,680 --> 01:13:41,920
Speaker 1: yesterday saying the top domestic threat is not killer Putin,

1171
01:13:42,280 --> 01:13:47,000
Speaker 1: it's not President g in China. It's not you know,

1172
01:13:47,120 --> 01:13:51,679
Speaker 1: cyber attack. It's white supremacist groups in America. I don't

1173
01:13:51,680 --> 01:13:53,960
Speaker 1: know about your neighborhood, but they're roaming all over mind.

1174
01:13:54,000 --> 01:13:59,200
Speaker 1: I can't go anywhere. Are you kidding me? These people

1175
01:13:59,280 --> 01:14:01,840
Speaker 1: are so out of control, And you're quite right, it

1176
01:14:02,120 --> 01:14:04,280
Speaker 1: is the media. They ought to be seen for what

1177
01:14:04,360 --> 01:14:08,880
Speaker 1: they are, just horrible hacks for state run government, for

1178
01:14:08,920 --> 01:14:11,200
Speaker 1: state run media. I should say back after this on

1179
01:14:11,320 --> 01:14:15,360
Speaker 1: the Excellence in Broadcasting Network. Okay, don't go anywhere. A

1180
01:14:15,479 --> 01:14:20,679
Speaker 1: third hour coming right up on the excellence in broadcasting network.

1181
01:14:20,760 --> 01:14:22,400
Speaker 1: I can hardly wait. I want to continue with this

1182
01:14:22,520 --> 01:14:25,880
Speaker 1: lockdown stuff and the media bias all of that. Remember

1183
01:14:26,360 --> 01:14:29,759
Speaker 1: when Georgia and a number of other states, but Georgia

1184
01:14:29,800 --> 01:14:33,360
Speaker 1: in particular in this case, decided they wouldn't lockdown completely,

1185
01:14:33,400 --> 01:14:37,200
Speaker 1: they'd have a hands off policy. The Atlantic one of

1186
01:14:37,200 --> 01:14:41,120
Speaker 1: the most scurless joke of an outfit. I mean, these

1187
01:14:41,160 --> 01:14:44,840
Speaker 1: people are just hacks. They're on their knees for big

1188
01:14:44,840 --> 01:14:48,800
Speaker 1: government at all times, wrote that Georgia was conducting an

1189
01:14:48,840 --> 01:14:54,120
Speaker 1: experiment in human sacrifice, except as usual. They weren't just wrong,

1190
01:14:54,439 --> 01:14:57,960
Speaker 1: they lied. There was no difference between the lockdown states

1191
01:14:58,040 --> 01:15:00,719
Speaker 1: or the lockdown countries and the non lock down countries.

1192
01:15:00,760 --> 01:15:03,320
Speaker 1: We'll examine this and get to Russia's take on it,

1193
01:15:03,400 --> 01:15:07,160
Speaker 1: coming right up next hour. So don't go anywhere. Hey,

1194
01:15:07,160 --> 01:15:09,200
Speaker 1: this is odd. I just got a direct message from

1195
01:15:09,280 --> 01:15:11,479
Speaker 1: Chrissy Tegan. I'm just wondering if I should answer it.

1196
01:15:11,520 --> 01:15:15,479
Speaker 1: I what, I don't know. It's consider a problem. Welcome back,

1197
01:15:15,560 --> 01:15:17,960
Speaker 1: third hour of the program underway now with the talk

1198
01:15:18,000 --> 01:15:21,320
Speaker 1: show host formerly known as Congressman Jason Lewis. This woman

1199
01:15:21,520 --> 01:15:25,439
Speaker 1: is absolutely bonkers. Now, I didn't know who the hell

1200
01:15:25,520 --> 01:15:28,040
Speaker 1: she was. To be honest with you, Chrissy Teagan apparently

1201
01:15:28,080 --> 01:15:30,519
Speaker 1: likes to go after anybody that doesn't agree with her,

1202
01:15:30,680 --> 01:15:35,400
Speaker 1: usually conservatives, and destroy their lives on social media. Other

1203
01:15:35,439 --> 01:15:38,080
Speaker 1: than that she's a force for good. I don't know

1204
01:15:38,120 --> 01:15:42,519
Speaker 1: what she does. She's married to what some singer, right, gee,

1205
01:15:42,560 --> 01:15:45,040
Speaker 1: I wonder who wears the pants in that family? Man,

1206
01:15:45,080 --> 01:15:48,720
Speaker 1: oh man. These liberals just think rules don't apply to them,

1207
01:15:48,760 --> 01:15:52,040
Speaker 1: stability doesn't apply to them. It's like the screaming mobs

1208
01:15:52,479 --> 01:15:55,360
Speaker 1: at the Trump inauguration. I was actually at the Trump

1209
01:15:55,479 --> 01:16:00,320
Speaker 1: inauguration has an incoming new freshman member of Chris and

1210
01:16:00,360 --> 01:16:04,240
Speaker 1: I will tell you the throngs of juveniles. Albeit they

1211
01:16:04,240 --> 01:16:06,639
Speaker 1: were thirty eight, forty eight, fifty eight, but they were

1212
01:16:06,680 --> 01:16:13,080
Speaker 1: nevertheless throngs of juveniles screaming at the top of their lungs, bawling, crying,

1213
01:16:14,080 --> 01:16:18,320
Speaker 1: throwing temper tantrums in the street. Was unbelievable. You're just

1214
01:16:18,360 --> 01:16:22,160
Speaker 1: looking at these people going, holy mackerel. I guess we

1215
01:16:22,200 --> 01:16:25,519
Speaker 1: haven't won the war on drugs. After all, these people

1216
01:16:25,640 --> 01:16:29,280
Speaker 1: were living proof that something was wrong with the culture.

1217
01:16:29,320 --> 01:16:32,120
Speaker 1: And now you get Chrissy Teagan. There's nothing more than

1218
01:16:32,160 --> 01:16:35,640
Speaker 1: a manifestation of them, just a spoiled brat of a

1219
01:16:36,600 --> 01:16:40,240
Speaker 1: of a person. And I know it's a John Legend,

1220
01:16:40,360 --> 01:16:42,640
Speaker 1: Is that, right guy? John Legend is who she's married to,

1221
01:16:42,760 --> 01:16:48,679
Speaker 1: Right boy. If there ever was a case of poetic justice,

1222
01:16:49,960 --> 01:16:52,120
Speaker 1: it's the idea that that guy's got to go home

1223
01:16:52,160 --> 01:16:55,520
Speaker 1: to Earth. Anyway, I want to move on speaking of comedians,

1224
01:16:55,640 --> 01:16:59,880
Speaker 1: because now they're finally getting it. Imagine for a moment,

1225
01:17:00,600 --> 01:17:04,759
Speaker 1: Imagine for a moment that oh, I don't know. Vladimir

1226
01:17:04,840 --> 01:17:11,840
Speaker 1: Putin had a lab and was fiddling around with oh viruses,

1227
01:17:12,640 --> 01:17:15,439
Speaker 1: and at his lab, bats were hanging off the hats

1228
01:17:15,520 --> 01:17:18,640
Speaker 1: of these scientists working. And when they found out they

1229
01:17:18,680 --> 01:17:24,600
Speaker 1: engineered a supervirus and they unleashed it or just incompetently,

1230
01:17:24,640 --> 01:17:27,600
Speaker 1: it escaped the lab. They said, hey, what bats? No

1231
01:17:27,760 --> 01:17:30,840
Speaker 1: bats here? And there's a picture that showed up that

1232
01:17:30,960 --> 01:17:33,560
Speaker 1: showed a bat hanging from the hat of a scientist.

1233
01:17:34,800 --> 01:17:38,320
Speaker 1: Can you imagine what the press would do? Can you

1234
01:17:38,360 --> 01:17:43,400
Speaker 1: imagine they would be clamoring along with you know, Mitt Romney,

1235
01:17:43,439 --> 01:17:47,599
Speaker 1: John McCain, Ben Sass, Liz Cheney, all the warhawks. They

1236
01:17:47,640 --> 01:17:51,400
Speaker 1: would be clamoring for a nuclear strike. Well, okay, maybe

1237
01:17:51,400 --> 01:17:53,439
Speaker 1: not a nuclear strike, but at some sort of strike

1238
01:17:53,680 --> 01:17:59,000
Speaker 1: against Russia, and yet what could be described as an

1239
01:17:59,000 --> 01:18:03,439
Speaker 1: act of war, the China fiddling with this virus, the

1240
01:18:03,520 --> 01:18:07,759
Speaker 1: gain of function research that yes, however indirectly we funded,

1241
01:18:08,160 --> 01:18:12,800
Speaker 1: thank you, doctor Fauci. That's not an issue. It's all

1242
01:18:12,920 --> 01:18:17,280
Speaker 1: Latimer putin. It's unbelievable. In fact, it's so over the

1243
01:18:17,360 --> 01:18:24,120
Speaker 1: top that you can even convince these late night comedians

1244
01:18:24,160 --> 01:18:29,599
Speaker 1: of reality anymore. Now thanks to John Stewart, some folks

1245
01:18:29,640 --> 01:18:31,960
Speaker 1: are trying. I don't know what you've heard about this, right,

1246
01:18:32,360 --> 01:18:35,280
Speaker 1: Stewart was on Stephen Colbert. I don't think I've watched

1247
01:18:35,280 --> 01:18:38,240
Speaker 1: that show ever, so I can't tell you what it's like,

1248
01:18:38,520 --> 01:18:40,960
Speaker 1: other than Colbert is more a democrat than he is

1249
01:18:41,000 --> 01:18:45,799
Speaker 1: a comedian. Right, But Stewart, you gotta give him credit,

1250
01:18:45,920 --> 01:18:48,599
Speaker 1: is seeing things for what they are. I think, of course,

1251
01:18:49,920 --> 01:18:52,639
Speaker 1: this was a Wuhan virl. You don't have to take

1252
01:18:52,640 --> 01:18:55,320
Speaker 1: it from my mouth, take it from John Stewart on

1253
01:18:55,360 --> 01:18:59,800
Speaker 1: Stephen Colbert. There's a chance that this was created a lad.

1254
01:18:59,800 --> 01:19:06,840
Speaker 1: There's investigation, a chance there's a novel respiratory coronavirus overtaking

1255
01:19:06,920 --> 01:19:09,960
Speaker 1: Wuhan China. What do we do? Oh, you know who.

1256
01:19:09,960 --> 01:19:15,479
Speaker 1: We could ask the Wuhan Novel Respiratory coronavirus lab. The

1257
01:19:15,680 --> 01:19:20,680
Speaker 1: disease is the same name as the lab. That's just

1258
01:19:20,720 --> 01:19:22,599
Speaker 1: a little too weird, don't you think? And then they

1259
01:19:22,600 --> 01:19:24,920
Speaker 1: ask scientists are like, so, wait a minute, you work

1260
01:19:24,960 --> 01:19:28,920
Speaker 1: at the Wuhan Respiratory coronavirus lab. How did this happen?

1261
01:19:28,960 --> 01:19:33,519
Speaker 1: And they're like a pangol and kiss the turtle and

1262
01:19:33,640 --> 01:19:37,439
Speaker 1: you're like, no, the name of your lab. If you

1263
01:19:37,560 --> 01:19:40,680
Speaker 1: look at the name, look at the name. Can I

1264
01:19:40,800 --> 01:19:44,920
Speaker 1: let me see your business card? Show me your business card? Oh,

1265
01:19:44,960 --> 01:19:50,960
Speaker 1: I work at the coronavirus lab in wun Oh, because

1266
01:19:50,960 --> 01:19:54,120
Speaker 1: there's a coronavirus loosen Wuhan that can very well be

1267
01:19:54,439 --> 01:19:57,439
Speaker 1: And Anthony Fauci and Frances Collins and Annie him said like,

1268
01:19:57,479 --> 01:20:01,160
Speaker 1: you should definitely be investigated. Stop with the logic and

1269
01:20:01,280 --> 01:20:04,400
Speaker 1: people and things the name of the disease. Wait a

1270
01:20:04,400 --> 01:20:10,920
Speaker 1: second second, building The only coronavirus we have is in Woohan, yes,

1271
01:20:11,280 --> 01:20:14,559
Speaker 1: where they have a lab called what's the lab called

1272
01:20:14,560 --> 01:20:18,559
Speaker 1: against the woohand novel coronavirus lab. I believe the hot

1273
01:20:18,600 --> 01:20:21,759
Speaker 1: case And how long have you worked for Senator Ron Johnson?

1274
01:20:22,840 --> 01:20:25,559
Speaker 1: It turns out Ron Johnson was right. He's been right

1275
01:20:25,600 --> 01:20:31,320
Speaker 1: all along, and Stephen Colbert just cannot stomach that because

1276
01:20:31,360 --> 01:20:34,879
Speaker 1: his number one job is to get Democrats elected. Comedy

1277
01:20:34,920 --> 01:20:37,160
Speaker 1: comes second, as though he if you know, I don't

1278
01:20:37,160 --> 01:20:39,320
Speaker 1: know that he was ever that funny, but some people

1279
01:20:39,360 --> 01:20:42,439
Speaker 1: say so. But always just a hack. He's just an

1280
01:20:42,479 --> 01:20:48,320
Speaker 1: angry juvenile screaming at the Trump inauguration hack. And nobody

1281
01:20:48,360 --> 01:20:50,680
Speaker 1: saw this more. You know, I grew up in the

1282
01:20:50,680 --> 01:20:54,200
Speaker 1: era of real late night comedians and primarily Johnny Carson.

1283
01:20:54,520 --> 01:20:56,800
Speaker 1: Now Carson was a liberal. You could tell once in

1284
01:20:56,840 --> 01:21:01,439
Speaker 1: a while, but it was never overt and you couldn't

1285
01:21:01,479 --> 01:21:04,120
Speaker 1: you didn't. He wouldn't make as many jokes about Jimmy

1286
01:21:04,160 --> 01:21:07,320
Speaker 1: Carter's he what about Reagan? Same was true of Saturday

1287
01:21:07,400 --> 01:21:11,000
Speaker 1: Night Live and It's earlier incarnation. The same is true

1288
01:21:11,000 --> 01:21:14,080
Speaker 1: of Jay Leno. Now they're going off the deep end

1289
01:21:14,120 --> 01:21:18,360
Speaker 1: and they're not funny, they're just lecturing. And nobody saw

1290
01:21:18,439 --> 01:21:22,360
Speaker 1: this more clear than Rush did. In fact, he made

1291
01:21:22,360 --> 01:21:25,719
Speaker 1: a point about the worst of them all. Jimmy Kimmel

1292
01:21:25,920 --> 01:21:29,120
Speaker 1: is just a despicable little brat. Here is David and

1293
01:21:29,240 --> 01:21:32,640
Speaker 1: Dallas Hi doing David, I'm doing good dittos, Rush, thank you.

1294
01:21:32,880 --> 01:21:35,320
Speaker 1: I'd like to know how is it possible for someone

1295
01:21:35,400 --> 01:21:39,519
Speaker 1: like Jimmy Kimmel, freaking Jimmy Kimmel go from girls on

1296
01:21:39,640 --> 01:21:43,120
Speaker 1: trampolines to the moral voice on the left. Let me

1297
01:21:43,200 --> 01:21:45,760
Speaker 1: just I'm gonna get in deep due here. You have

1298
01:21:45,760 --> 01:21:49,120
Speaker 1: to understand something about these late night comedians. They have

1299
01:21:49,280 --> 01:21:52,120
Speaker 1: a staff of writers that may in number from ten

1300
01:21:52,160 --> 01:21:56,240
Speaker 1: to twenty. So whatever Kimmel is uttering every night when

1301
01:21:56,280 --> 01:21:59,360
Speaker 1: it comes at jokes, he may not even have written it.

1302
01:22:00,360 --> 01:22:02,599
Speaker 1: I mean, you just don't know. Now it ends up

1303
01:22:02,600 --> 01:22:05,719
Speaker 1: in his name. But but there are like this show

1304
01:22:05,760 --> 01:22:10,160
Speaker 1: doesn't have any writers, never have had, But Johnny Carson

1305
01:22:10,240 --> 01:22:13,200
Speaker 1: had writers. They all Letterman let him at twenty five

1306
01:22:13,240 --> 01:22:16,200
Speaker 1: of them. I mean they work all day putting together

1307
01:22:16,280 --> 01:22:18,960
Speaker 1: a five to eight minute monologue. What you're really asking

1308
01:22:19,120 --> 01:22:23,360
Speaker 1: is why do people grant him any credibility when he

1309
01:22:23,479 --> 01:22:27,640
Speaker 1: when he makes massive shifts like this exactly why is

1310
01:22:27,680 --> 01:22:31,920
Speaker 1: he even considered as an authority that's just beyond he's

1311
01:22:31,960 --> 01:22:36,760
Speaker 1: actually not. But the people who agree with what he's

1312
01:22:36,800 --> 01:22:41,320
Speaker 1: saying grant him that status because they want to hear it,

1313
01:22:41,800 --> 01:22:44,639
Speaker 1: and they don't really care who says it. The fact

1314
01:22:44,720 --> 01:22:47,080
Speaker 1: that Kimmel is saying it means they're going to bond

1315
01:22:47,160 --> 01:22:50,840
Speaker 1: with him and support him. But to people that don't

1316
01:22:50,840 --> 01:22:53,480
Speaker 1: agree with what Kimmel say, he's not authoritied to anybody,

1317
01:22:53,520 --> 01:22:58,160
Speaker 1: He's a hack. Jimmy Kimmel has demonstrated by virtue of

1318
01:22:58,200 --> 01:23:00,960
Speaker 1: his career it comes to political thinking, he doesn't really

1319
01:23:00,960 --> 01:23:05,519
Speaker 1: have any original thought. And exactly so his bleeding on

1320
01:23:05,680 --> 01:23:09,640
Speaker 1: healthcare and now Trump. Believe me, it has been established

1321
01:23:09,640 --> 01:23:13,360
Speaker 1: that he has a lot of assistance from the staff

1322
01:23:13,400 --> 01:23:18,439
Speaker 1: of Senator Schumer. They send him talking points and other

1323
01:23:18,560 --> 01:23:23,920
Speaker 1: political things to say about Trump and about healthcare, and

1324
01:23:24,080 --> 01:23:26,720
Speaker 1: he just repeats it, is it just money, He just

1325
01:23:26,760 --> 01:23:29,160
Speaker 1: wants money. What do you mean? Is it just money?

1326
01:23:29,240 --> 01:23:33,519
Speaker 1: He just wants money? No, I just want to get paid. Okay,

1327
01:23:33,560 --> 01:23:36,559
Speaker 1: you're asking so many different things here that I'm not

1328
01:23:36,680 --> 01:23:39,240
Speaker 1: criticized you, but you're asking a lot of different questions.

1329
01:23:39,280 --> 01:23:42,520
Speaker 1: You're asking about how can he do this with credibility?

1330
01:23:42,880 --> 01:23:45,519
Speaker 1: You're asking why is he doing it? Why did he

1331
01:23:45,600 --> 01:23:48,240
Speaker 1: go from trying to be a comedian telling jokes to

1332
01:23:48,360 --> 01:23:52,000
Speaker 1: trying to be taken seriously as a political commentator. I mean,

1333
01:23:52,040 --> 01:23:55,120
Speaker 1: every one of your questions has a different answer. I

1334
01:23:55,160 --> 01:23:58,920
Speaker 1: guess my real question is I understood Jimmy Kimmel to

1335
01:23:58,960 --> 01:24:04,439
Speaker 1: be a publican, a man's man years ago because of

1336
01:24:04,479 --> 01:24:08,800
Speaker 1: the Man Because because of the Man Show, you thought

1337
01:24:08,840 --> 01:24:11,679
Speaker 1: he was a republic He was on with Adam Carolla,

1338
01:24:11,720 --> 01:24:14,880
Speaker 1: who is a conservative, right, I had no clue that

1339
01:24:14,920 --> 01:24:19,479
Speaker 1: he was a liberal whatsoever. Well it happened, and you know,

1340
01:24:19,560 --> 01:24:22,360
Speaker 1: there's there's this thing called, and I'm not being facetious,

1341
01:24:22,439 --> 01:24:29,439
Speaker 1: there is this very well tested theorem. It's called O'Sullivan's law,

1342
01:24:30,200 --> 01:24:35,120
Speaker 1: and it is this, any person or group which is

1343
01:24:35,160 --> 01:24:41,920
Speaker 1: not actively conservative every day will become liberal, meaning liberalism

1344
01:24:42,000 --> 01:24:48,519
Speaker 1: is the natural default position for unthinking people, for emotional people,

1345
01:24:48,560 --> 01:24:52,200
Speaker 1: it's the default. Conservatism, on the other hand, is I

1346
01:24:52,240 --> 01:24:55,040
Speaker 1: don't want to be misunderstood here, but it's a mental

1347
01:24:55,080 --> 01:24:58,680
Speaker 1: it's an intellectual pursuit. You may live your life as

1348
01:24:58,680 --> 01:25:03,000
Speaker 1: a conservative, and you may is a conservative, but you

1349
01:25:03,040 --> 01:25:06,240
Speaker 1: may not be able to explain why. Liberals don't have

1350
01:25:06,280 --> 01:25:08,200
Speaker 1: to explain why. All they have to do is say

1351
01:25:08,280 --> 01:25:13,719
Speaker 1: they care or notice suffering or discrimination victims or what having.

1352
01:25:13,760 --> 01:25:20,560
Speaker 1: They're automatically fetted with great compliments for courage and sensitivity,

1353
01:25:21,120 --> 01:25:26,240
Speaker 1: but nothing they ever propose fixes anything. All they do

1354
01:25:26,479 --> 01:25:31,439
Speaker 1: is further mess things up. So Kimmel going from The

1355
01:25:31,479 --> 01:25:35,160
Speaker 1: Man Show to where he is now, it could be

1356
01:25:35,200 --> 01:25:38,800
Speaker 1: as seductive as one thing. Okay, So his kid ends

1357
01:25:38,880 --> 01:25:44,280
Speaker 1: up medical condition, goes to the hospital, discovers some things

1358
01:25:44,280 --> 01:25:48,040
Speaker 1: there and decides to come out and tell the story.

1359
01:25:48,720 --> 01:25:50,920
Speaker 1: And the Schumer office heard it and got in touch

1360
01:25:50,960 --> 01:25:54,519
Speaker 1: with him, and now Kimmel can be taken seriously for

1361
01:25:54,600 --> 01:25:57,519
Speaker 1: once instead of just being a jokester. And believe me,

1362
01:25:57,760 --> 01:26:03,080
Speaker 1: actors and comedians wave to be taken seriously. And that's

1363
01:26:03,120 --> 01:26:06,759
Speaker 1: why they call it the Limbaugh Institute for Advanced Conservative Studies.

1364
01:26:06,800 --> 01:26:09,639
Speaker 1: I will give you a little additional thought, and that

1365
01:26:09,800 --> 01:26:13,200
Speaker 1: was in addition to O'Sullivan's law that liberalism is the

1366
01:26:13,240 --> 01:26:17,800
Speaker 1: default position. It's a little bit like groupthink conformity. What's

1367
01:26:17,800 --> 01:26:20,479
Speaker 1: so ironic about this is, you know, the arts, the

1368
01:26:20,560 --> 01:26:23,200
Speaker 1: creative class was supposed to be nonconformists. They are the

1369
01:26:23,200 --> 01:26:26,439
Speaker 1: biggest conformists under the sun. What's the which way is

1370
01:26:26,479 --> 01:26:28,760
Speaker 1: the wind blown? What does everybody say? That's where I'm going.

1371
01:26:29,400 --> 01:26:31,519
Speaker 1: Another word for that is cowardice. That's why you don't

1372
01:26:31,560 --> 01:26:35,360
Speaker 1: have very many leaders in the world. But Jefferson himself

1373
01:26:35,400 --> 01:26:38,680
Speaker 1: pinpointed it so many years ago, and he said, the

1374
01:26:38,880 --> 01:26:44,080
Speaker 1: natural inclination of things is for liberty to yield, liberty

1375
01:26:44,120 --> 01:26:47,720
Speaker 1: to yield, and government to grow. I'm paraphrasing, but that's

1376
01:26:47,760 --> 01:26:51,400
Speaker 1: what TJ said. And he was right back with more

1377
01:26:51,479 --> 01:26:53,880
Speaker 1: of the fastest three hours in radio. When we return,

1378
01:26:55,280 --> 01:26:57,439
Speaker 1: let's squeeze in a call or two this segment before

1379
01:26:57,439 --> 01:27:00,200
Speaker 1: we carry on here on the excellence and broadcasting work.

1380
01:27:00,280 --> 01:27:03,040
Speaker 1: The contact line one eight hundred two eight two two

1381
01:27:03,200 --> 01:27:06,200
Speaker 1: eight eight two. Let's go to Wisconsin and Jack, you're

1382
01:27:06,240 --> 01:27:10,040
Speaker 1: on with the Jason Lewis your guide house today. Hey, Jason,

1383
01:27:10,160 --> 01:27:13,719
Speaker 1: great to talk to you again, mister Daily Show. Always

1384
01:27:13,800 --> 01:27:16,960
Speaker 1: felt a little bit smarter having listened to you every day.

1385
01:27:18,000 --> 01:27:20,280
Speaker 1: I wanted to you kind of stepped on my point earlier,

1386
01:27:20,320 --> 01:27:22,080
Speaker 1: but I wanted to add to it and then bring

1387
01:27:22,080 --> 01:27:25,280
Speaker 1: it home with something Rush said. And you know, the

1388
01:27:25,320 --> 01:27:28,960
Speaker 1: point is that you know, you talked about Carter yesterday

1389
01:27:29,080 --> 01:27:32,679
Speaker 1: and I lived through Carter two. And the difference between

1390
01:27:32,760 --> 01:27:37,000
Speaker 1: Carter and Biden is Carter was incompetent. I think Biden.

1391
01:27:38,080 --> 01:27:41,080
Speaker 1: Biden's not doing this. His minions are doing. The people

1392
01:27:41,120 --> 01:27:45,479
Speaker 1: he surrounded himself with are doing this. You know, he's

1393
01:27:45,479 --> 01:27:47,760
Speaker 1: not asleep the wheel, He's not even in the car.

1394
01:27:48,680 --> 01:27:51,640
Speaker 1: And I love, I love right. I love the pretense

1395
01:27:51,720 --> 01:27:55,280
Speaker 1: in the media about Democrats have their own internessan warfare

1396
01:27:55,320 --> 01:27:59,960
Speaker 1: going on between moderates and the squad, hogwash. The Democrat

1397
01:28:00,120 --> 01:28:05,680
Speaker 1: Party is the squad. The squad is the Democrat Party absolutely,

1398
01:28:05,720 --> 01:28:09,040
Speaker 1: And I mean, you know, I think they're collapsing this

1399
01:28:09,280 --> 01:28:13,400
Speaker 1: on purpose, that the manage decline running on its own,

1400
01:28:13,600 --> 01:28:17,880
Speaker 1: isn't running fast enough with them for them. And to

1401
01:28:17,960 --> 01:28:20,120
Speaker 1: bring it back to something Rush said and that you

1402
01:28:20,200 --> 01:28:24,479
Speaker 1: said about the bureaucracy and you know, crashing the economy

1403
01:28:24,479 --> 01:28:27,719
Speaker 1: and doing all these awful things, is was did Hitler

1404
01:28:27,920 --> 01:28:35,240
Speaker 1: need to tell Briinhard, Hydrick or Mangola to do what

1405
01:28:35,320 --> 01:28:38,840
Speaker 1: they did. He didn't need to order that, he didn't

1406
01:28:38,840 --> 01:28:42,440
Speaker 1: have to have his fingerprints on it. The permanent bureaucracy

1407
01:28:42,640 --> 01:28:46,559
Speaker 1: is hired to do what they do, well, you get.

1408
01:28:46,640 --> 01:28:49,080
Speaker 1: I mean, I wouldn't make comparisons to Hitler, but I

1409
01:28:49,120 --> 01:28:53,160
Speaker 1: will say that the permanent bureaucracy now includes corporate America,

1410
01:28:53,400 --> 01:28:59,519
Speaker 1: the nonprofit community education, big tech, woke business. It's what

1411
01:28:59,600 --> 01:29:03,240
Speaker 1: I call institutional liberalism. And we are surrounded by it,

1412
01:29:03,280 --> 01:29:06,639
Speaker 1: and you're right, it is run on autopilot right now.

1413
01:29:06,880 --> 01:29:09,280
Speaker 1: And this is the biggest difference, And this is what

1414
01:29:09,360 --> 01:29:11,879
Speaker 1: I was trying to get across yesterday as well. Between

1415
01:29:11,960 --> 01:29:15,200
Speaker 1: Biden and Carter. I think the similarities are astounding. The

1416
01:29:15,280 --> 01:29:17,760
Speaker 1: Fed just announced an hour ago they would keep the

1417
01:29:17,760 --> 01:29:20,720
Speaker 1: federal funds rate the same. The market, however, looked at

1418
01:29:20,720 --> 01:29:23,639
Speaker 1: their statement said oh, someday they're going to raise rates,

1419
01:29:23,800 --> 01:29:27,840
Speaker 1: and they tanked three hundred points. By letting this monetary

1420
01:29:27,920 --> 01:29:31,519
Speaker 1: expansion get out of control, they now have backed themselves

1421
01:29:31,520 --> 01:29:33,960
Speaker 1: into a corner where they can't ring inflation out of

1422
01:29:33,960 --> 01:29:36,880
Speaker 1: the economy without the bond and stock market panicking and

1423
01:29:37,000 --> 01:29:39,720
Speaker 1: dropping in the bubble burst. So we're in a bad way,

1424
01:29:39,800 --> 01:29:42,839
Speaker 1: which is very similar to Jimmy Carter. But the difference

1425
01:29:42,920 --> 01:29:47,360
Speaker 1: between now and fifty years ago is most of America.

1426
01:29:47,400 --> 01:29:51,160
Speaker 1: If fifty years ago still believed in America. They believed

1427
01:29:51,160 --> 01:29:54,400
Speaker 1: in the rule of law, they believed in the constitutional republic,

1428
01:29:54,600 --> 01:29:57,320
Speaker 1: they believed in equal protection under the law, they believed

1429
01:29:57,320 --> 01:30:01,559
Speaker 1: in private property, they believed that the American dream was real.

1430
01:30:02,280 --> 01:30:06,000
Speaker 1: My concern today to your point is, I know the

1431
01:30:06,040 --> 01:30:09,040
Speaker 1: Democrat Party doesn't believe it anymore. But that's is that

1432
01:30:09,120 --> 01:30:12,160
Speaker 1: half the country. So the reason Reagan came along is

1433
01:30:12,200 --> 01:30:15,280
Speaker 1: people saw what Carter was doing with stagflation and many

1434
01:30:15,280 --> 01:30:17,920
Speaker 1: of the problems energy dependence that we're going through today,

1435
01:30:18,160 --> 01:30:22,200
Speaker 1: and they rejected it. They revolted and elected Reagan. When

1436
01:30:22,240 --> 01:30:28,320
Speaker 1: we see it today, half the country the institutions applauded, well,

1437
01:30:28,320 --> 01:30:31,960
Speaker 1: we like this. Socialism is good. Open borders, we like

1438
01:30:32,080 --> 01:30:36,120
Speaker 1: them wide open. And if that's the case, we've lost

1439
01:30:36,160 --> 01:30:43,960
Speaker 1: the country. I mean, that really is the sixty four

1440
01:30:44,000 --> 01:30:48,599
Speaker 1: thousand dollars question, is it not. We've gone We've gone

1441
01:30:48,600 --> 01:30:51,120
Speaker 1: through these things before, and we revolted and got the

1442
01:30:51,160 --> 01:30:54,080
Speaker 1: country back on track. What happens if half the country

1443
01:30:54,120 --> 01:30:58,120
Speaker 1: thinks they like socialism, They like chaos in the streets,

1444
01:30:58,479 --> 01:31:01,680
Speaker 1: they like violence in Buckheat and violence in North Minneapolis,

1445
01:31:01,720 --> 01:31:05,400
Speaker 1: and violence in Seattle and Portland. Portland's a basket case.

1446
01:31:06,720 --> 01:31:11,320
Speaker 1: Portland's an absolute basket case. That's why Eastern Oregon wants

1447
01:31:11,320 --> 01:31:17,439
Speaker 1: to secede. La Crimes going through the roof San Diego

1448
01:31:17,560 --> 01:31:21,200
Speaker 1: used to be a conservative paradise. I mean, everything that

1449
01:31:21,240 --> 01:31:26,600
Speaker 1: we once prided ourselves upon is now lost, and you

1450
01:31:26,640 --> 01:31:30,599
Speaker 1: have to wonder whether or not I mean, I guess

1451
01:31:30,640 --> 01:31:32,479
Speaker 1: you know. I don't want to paint too bleak a picture.

1452
01:31:33,040 --> 01:31:35,479
Speaker 1: But what I am saying is the time is now

1453
01:31:36,120 --> 01:31:38,559
Speaker 1: if you don't take the country back from this. And

1454
01:31:38,680 --> 01:31:41,360
Speaker 1: I think you're right. I do think you're right that

1455
01:31:41,479 --> 01:31:47,480
Speaker 1: this is an orchestrated attempt at chaos. Again, let me reiterate.

1456
01:31:48,600 --> 01:31:54,000
Speaker 1: We have people being shot for their skin color in

1457
01:31:54,040 --> 01:31:59,679
Speaker 1: places like Georgia. Buckhead is closing malls due to violence,

1458
01:32:01,120 --> 01:32:05,439
Speaker 1: Minneapolis has protests every night, Seattle, Portland, you name it.

1459
01:32:06,439 --> 01:32:10,200
Speaker 1: And what does Merrick Garland, the Attorney general say? The

1460
01:32:10,280 --> 01:32:17,760
Speaker 1: problem is white people, The problem is white supremacy. I

1461
01:32:17,800 --> 01:32:21,200
Speaker 1: don't know if that's the problem that caused the record

1462
01:32:21,240 --> 01:32:27,160
Speaker 1: amount of damage that we saw last summer. If you

1463
01:32:27,200 --> 01:32:29,760
Speaker 1: take a look at the Bureau of Justice statistics and

1464
01:32:29,920 --> 01:32:32,519
Speaker 1: where the crimes coming from, I don't think that supports

1465
01:32:32,520 --> 01:32:38,480
Speaker 1: what Garland said. But look, we have commandeered the institutions

1466
01:32:38,520 --> 01:32:43,040
Speaker 1: of society to go after one political viewpoint, and that's conservatism,

1467
01:32:43,080 --> 01:32:47,840
Speaker 1: more specifically Trump. Mark in Minnesota, You're up next on

1468
01:32:47,880 --> 01:32:55,840
Speaker 1: the Russia Limbaugh program. High Hello, Hello, Mark, sure Is

1469
01:32:57,280 --> 01:33:00,640
Speaker 1: se Jason. I have a question for you. When we

1470
01:33:00,680 --> 01:33:04,960
Speaker 1: get our elected officials talking to us on TV where

1471
01:33:05,160 --> 01:33:09,599
Speaker 1: they're not held to their truth. But yet when they

1472
01:33:09,640 --> 01:33:14,280
Speaker 1: go vote in private, when they're under oath, then all

1473
01:33:14,280 --> 01:33:17,360
Speaker 1: of a sudden they tend to say different things. Why

1474
01:33:17,360 --> 01:33:20,280
Speaker 1: aren't these guys held to the truth when they're speaking

1475
01:33:20,280 --> 01:33:25,400
Speaker 1: to the public. You mean, when going to Russian collusion hoax,

1476
01:33:25,920 --> 01:33:29,519
Speaker 1: when you had members of well remember members of Congress

1477
01:33:29,520 --> 01:33:32,320
Speaker 1: were saying this and Russia was a Trump was a

1478
01:33:32,360 --> 01:33:35,400
Speaker 1: Russian spy. And then when you actually had the testimony

1479
01:33:36,040 --> 01:33:39,639
Speaker 1: of Muller and Komy at all, Well did you see

1480
01:33:39,680 --> 01:33:43,240
Speaker 1: direct evidence of Well no, we really didn't see direct exactly.

1481
01:33:43,880 --> 01:33:46,400
Speaker 1: So why are they allowed to lie to the public

1482
01:33:46,560 --> 01:33:50,000
Speaker 1: in sway public opinions? Because we do not have a

1483
01:33:50,080 --> 01:33:55,000
Speaker 1: fourth estate that cares about accuracy and holding people accountable.

1484
01:33:55,160 --> 01:33:59,640
Speaker 1: We have a media cabal that cares about doing the

1485
01:33:59,680 --> 01:34:03,799
Speaker 1: government it's bidding. I mean, I know it's tiresome complaining

1486
01:34:03,840 --> 01:34:06,439
Speaker 1: about the media all the time, but it really is

1487
01:34:06,479 --> 01:34:08,439
Speaker 1: the crux of the problem. If you don't have the

1488
01:34:08,479 --> 01:34:12,000
Speaker 1: free flow of information, why do you think every single

1489
01:34:12,080 --> 01:34:19,480
Speaker 1: dictator from Mao, from Stalin, from Hitler, Castro from Ortega,

1490
01:34:19,600 --> 01:34:23,080
Speaker 1: pick your favorite dictator, Pinochet, it doesn't matter what's the

1491
01:34:23,120 --> 01:34:26,400
Speaker 1: first thing they do shut down a free press? Why

1492
01:34:26,520 --> 01:34:30,280
Speaker 1: they don't want competition from the press for their aims.

1493
01:34:31,080 --> 01:34:36,920
Speaker 1: What's happening today? Publishers are canceling Josh Holly's book, Facebook

1494
01:34:37,000 --> 01:34:41,120
Speaker 1: and YouTube. Ron Johnson said hydroxy chloro queen may actually work.

1495
01:34:41,320 --> 01:34:45,240
Speaker 1: He was kicked off of YouTube. The censorship is palpable

1496
01:34:45,520 --> 01:34:50,320
Speaker 1: and the media ought to be fighting that. Instead journalists

1497
01:34:50,320 --> 01:34:54,240
Speaker 1: are encouraging it. It is a total betrayal of their

1498
01:34:54,280 --> 01:34:59,000
Speaker 1: profession and frankly, the country and we are back ready

1499
01:34:59,000 --> 01:35:02,920
Speaker 1: to get Russia's take well on the big tech monopolies

1500
01:35:02,920 --> 01:35:05,080
Speaker 1: in a second. You know, in Ohio, by the way,

1501
01:35:05,880 --> 01:35:08,880
Speaker 1: there is a lawsuit that's trying to make Google a

1502
01:35:09,000 --> 01:35:12,080
Speaker 1: public utility. They're suggesting it's a public utility. We talked

1503
01:35:12,080 --> 01:35:15,800
Speaker 1: about this earlier. Now forget about your view on antitrust

1504
01:35:15,840 --> 01:35:18,240
Speaker 1: for a moment. If you compare the market share of

1505
01:35:18,280 --> 01:35:21,760
Speaker 1: a Google or YouTube one of the same, If you

1506
01:35:21,840 --> 01:35:24,800
Speaker 1: compare Facebook, if you compare Amazon, you get any of

1507
01:35:24,800 --> 01:35:27,519
Speaker 1: the big, big tech companies that fared so well during

1508
01:35:27,520 --> 01:35:32,200
Speaker 1: the lockdown, their market share would put Exonmobile or the

1509
01:35:32,280 --> 01:35:37,200
Speaker 1: Rockefellers to shame. So, if you believe in natural monopolies

1510
01:35:37,240 --> 01:35:40,280
Speaker 1: and antitrust law. The fact that we don't apply it.

1511
01:35:40,439 --> 01:35:45,000
Speaker 1: There is a massive exception to the rule. And the

1512
01:35:45,080 --> 01:35:48,360
Speaker 1: reason is because they are doing the government's bidding. They

1513
01:35:48,400 --> 01:35:51,920
Speaker 1: are big tech liberals, they're not companies. And just think

1514
01:35:51,920 --> 01:35:54,160
Speaker 1: about it. And even if you say, well, I don't

1515
01:35:54,200 --> 01:35:57,000
Speaker 1: you know, I'm a libertarian, I don't like natural monopolies,

1516
01:35:57,000 --> 01:36:00,679
Speaker 1: there's no such thing. Well, then how would you feel

1517
01:36:00,720 --> 01:36:04,000
Speaker 1: if a public utility decided we're not going to provide

1518
01:36:04,000 --> 01:36:09,040
Speaker 1: service during the next rolling blackout to Republicans? Hey, if

1519
01:36:09,040 --> 01:36:12,639
Speaker 1: you don't like it, don't take our business, or don't

1520
01:36:12,680 --> 01:36:18,240
Speaker 1: don't sign up with us. They can't do that. They

1521
01:36:18,320 --> 01:36:22,200
Speaker 1: are a common carrier goes back a hundred years, and

1522
01:36:22,280 --> 01:36:26,240
Speaker 1: a common carrier or someone that cannot deny service to

1523
01:36:26,360 --> 01:36:30,439
Speaker 1: people based on the need of their product, their market share,

1524
01:36:30,479 --> 01:36:33,080
Speaker 1: and all the rest. Now, again, there are some libertarians

1525
01:36:33,080 --> 01:36:35,240
Speaker 1: that don't believe in that. They say, in a perfect world,

1526
01:36:35,560 --> 01:36:38,880
Speaker 1: without barriers to entry, there would be no monopolies. But

1527
01:36:38,960 --> 01:36:43,759
Speaker 1: we don't have that now, And primarily because the government

1528
01:36:43,800 --> 01:36:46,880
Speaker 1: grants these outfits favors Section two thirty, but also because

1529
01:36:46,920 --> 01:36:51,840
Speaker 1: they're global monopolists, and when you have globalism you have

1530
01:36:51,880 --> 01:36:55,320
Speaker 1: a whole new problem with this. You can't you can't

1531
01:36:55,360 --> 01:36:59,720
Speaker 1: sacrifice national sovereignty on the back of global trade. We

1532
01:36:59,760 --> 01:37:03,680
Speaker 1: have to have America first, American sovereignty, just like we

1533
01:37:03,720 --> 01:37:06,840
Speaker 1: have to have a defense department. Defense money could be

1534
01:37:06,840 --> 01:37:09,200
Speaker 1: better spent elsewhere, but we've got to have a defense,

1535
01:37:09,240 --> 01:37:13,840
Speaker 1: so we reallocate resources. You can't eat tanks. Right. In

1536
01:37:13,880 --> 01:37:16,479
Speaker 1: a perfect world, you'd be growing more food with that money,

1537
01:37:17,520 --> 01:37:20,720
Speaker 1: more innovation elsewhere. But it's worth it because we've got

1538
01:37:20,720 --> 01:37:24,040
Speaker 1: to preserve America, the last best hope for our country.

1539
01:37:24,439 --> 01:37:29,679
Speaker 1: Same is true in this case. And yet these outfits

1540
01:37:29,680 --> 01:37:32,440
Speaker 1: are allowed to censor people based on their political affiliation.

1541
01:37:32,560 --> 01:37:35,960
Speaker 1: You wouldn't let Xcel Energy, you wouldn't let Kahn Edison,

1542
01:37:36,479 --> 01:37:39,040
Speaker 1: you wouldn't let any utility under the sun say, oh,

1543
01:37:39,080 --> 01:37:41,960
Speaker 1: we're not going to serve political conservatives. We're just going

1544
01:37:42,000 --> 01:37:44,800
Speaker 1: to ban them from our service. Yet, when Ron Johnson

1545
01:37:45,200 --> 01:37:49,719
Speaker 1: said we ought to be researching early treatments for COVID nineteen,

1546
01:37:50,600 --> 01:37:54,400
Speaker 1: when he said hydroxy chloroquint actually might work in many cases,

1547
01:37:55,400 --> 01:37:59,200
Speaker 1: YouTube didn't like and they censored him. You don't think

1548
01:37:59,240 --> 01:38:05,560
Speaker 1: that's a problem. Of course, it's a problem. And James O'Keefe,

1549
01:38:05,800 --> 01:38:08,720
Speaker 1: Project Veritas and all the rest had talked to a

1550
01:38:08,760 --> 01:38:12,240
Speaker 1: Google executive in regard to their desire to influence the

1551
01:38:12,280 --> 01:38:15,680
Speaker 1: twenty sixteen election. And this is worth hearing again a

1552
01:38:15,800 --> 01:38:18,559
Speaker 1: rural audio. Twelve yesterday after the program, I spoke with

1553
01:38:18,680 --> 01:38:21,760
Speaker 1: James O'Keefe, a Project Veritas. He has this is a

1554
01:38:21,800 --> 01:38:24,880
Speaker 1: bombshell what he discovered a year and a half in

1555
01:38:24,880 --> 01:38:30,400
Speaker 1: the making. Evidence admitted evidence from a high ranking Google

1556
01:38:30,640 --> 01:38:37,720
Speaker 1: employee that they are colluding with Democrats to shape the

1557
01:38:37,840 --> 01:38:41,720
Speaker 1: outcome of the twenty twenty election. She admits it that

1558
01:38:41,760 --> 01:38:44,400
Speaker 1: they're not going to have another Trump situation like we

1559
01:38:44,439 --> 01:38:48,400
Speaker 1: had in twenty sixteen. Here's real collusion, this is real obstruction.

1560
01:38:48,640 --> 01:38:51,599
Speaker 1: This is Google. They're going to do this with their

1561
01:38:51,600 --> 01:38:55,920
Speaker 1: search algorithms and any number of other things to diminish

1562
01:38:56,160 --> 01:39:01,639
Speaker 1: conservative presence, conservative search answers that are positive in nature,

1563
01:39:02,400 --> 01:39:04,520
Speaker 1: and by the same talk, and they're going to promote

1564
01:39:04,920 --> 01:39:09,679
Speaker 1: as much as they can Democrat issues and the eventual

1565
01:39:09,720 --> 01:39:13,679
Speaker 1: Democrat nominee. And so he releases the video a couple

1566
01:39:13,760 --> 01:39:17,320
Speaker 1: days ago, and the person he caught in the secret

1567
01:39:17,360 --> 01:39:19,920
Speaker 1: videos and oh no, no, no, no no, I was just

1568
01:39:20,080 --> 01:39:24,200
Speaker 1: I was just a conversation doesn't mean anything, and then

1569
01:39:24,439 --> 01:39:29,080
Speaker 1: she pulled down her accounts. And they also own YouTube

1570
01:39:29,120 --> 01:39:32,320
Speaker 1: though they pulled the video. They pulled the O'Keefe video

1571
01:39:32,520 --> 01:39:35,360
Speaker 1: off of YouTube when it was in the process of

1572
01:39:35,479 --> 01:39:39,240
Speaker 1: skyrocketing to a million views. They pulled it down after

1573
01:39:39,320 --> 01:39:44,160
Speaker 1: fifty thousand, pure unadulterated censorship. The whistleblowers at Google don't

1574
01:39:44,200 --> 01:39:47,839
Speaker 1: trust the drive by media. They called O'Keefe at Project Veritas,

1575
01:39:48,600 --> 01:39:51,840
Speaker 1: which is fine with him, but he's sitting there thinking,

1576
01:39:51,880 --> 01:39:54,400
Speaker 1: after this expos did the drive buys have to pick

1577
01:39:54,439 --> 01:39:56,360
Speaker 1: it up? And I kind of told him yesterday that's

1578
01:39:56,400 --> 01:39:58,320
Speaker 1: never going to happen. The drive buys or not media.

1579
01:39:58,400 --> 01:40:01,120
Speaker 1: They are now advocates. And as for the left, there's

1580
01:40:01,160 --> 01:40:04,600
Speaker 1: no difference in them and Google. So his tweet the

1581
01:40:04,640 --> 01:40:09,080
Speaker 1: greatest indictment of US journalism in a generation. Tech sources

1582
01:40:09,240 --> 01:40:13,759
Speaker 1: distrusted the drive by media came to me Project Veritas.

1583
01:40:14,680 --> 01:40:20,280
Speaker 1: Google responded twice Congress holding hearings. YouTube parent company Google

1584
01:40:20,400 --> 01:40:24,040
Speaker 1: took down our report as it was lighting up the Internet.

1585
01:40:24,560 --> 01:40:28,960
Speaker 1: And there's not a single American mainstream media journalist who

1586
01:40:28,960 --> 01:40:32,519
Speaker 1: has been assigned to the story. Of course not This

1587
01:40:32,640 --> 01:40:38,280
Speaker 1: is very, very serious thing that's happening Facebook and Google

1588
01:40:39,439 --> 01:40:44,080
Speaker 1: yah through Twitter in there too. They are systematically colluding

1589
01:40:44,280 --> 01:40:47,719
Speaker 1: with Democrats to affect the outcome of the twenty twenty election.

1590
01:40:48,000 --> 01:40:52,680
Speaker 1: And O'Keefe got a Google executive to admit it. Her

1591
01:40:52,760 --> 01:40:56,000
Speaker 1: name was jen j and I. She then had all

1592
01:40:56,040 --> 01:41:02,080
Speaker 1: of her accounts deleted Jenji and I did. And then

1593
01:41:02,120 --> 01:41:05,280
Speaker 1: the video of her that O'Keefe and his people posted

1594
01:41:05,360 --> 01:41:08,639
Speaker 1: on YouTube, which is owned by Google, was pulled down.

1595
01:41:09,160 --> 01:41:12,120
Speaker 1: They were racing, and they had people signing up and

1596
01:41:12,160 --> 01:41:14,960
Speaker 1: clicking to watch that video in droves, and after they

1597
01:41:15,000 --> 01:41:20,080
Speaker 1: had reached fifty thousand views, Google slash YouTube pulled the video.

1598
01:41:20,680 --> 01:41:24,360
Speaker 1: They were exposed. You don't think about this for a second.

1599
01:41:24,800 --> 01:41:28,040
Speaker 1: Think about and this is why this is dangerous, my friends.

1600
01:41:28,840 --> 01:41:33,439
Speaker 1: The the reason it's dangerous is because they end up

1601
01:41:33,439 --> 01:41:36,960
Speaker 1: And this is always why censorship is dangerous, not because

1602
01:41:37,160 --> 01:41:39,960
Speaker 1: the censor something that happens to be untrue. It's they

1603
01:41:40,000 --> 01:41:46,080
Speaker 1: inevitably censor something that's true. So think about the Twitter

1604
01:41:46,200 --> 01:41:50,639
Speaker 1: feeds on the Russian collusion story, the Trump the false

1605
01:41:50,680 --> 01:41:56,160
Speaker 1: Trump Tower meeting, the Covington High School kids, all of

1606
01:41:56,200 --> 01:41:58,639
Speaker 1: the things these companies have been sued over and had

1607
01:41:58,680 --> 01:42:02,840
Speaker 1: to settle with were promoted by big tech. But what

1608
01:42:03,000 --> 01:42:08,400
Speaker 1: was censored by big tech? The Wuhan lab leak hydroxy

1609
01:42:08,479 --> 01:42:14,240
Speaker 1: chloroquin actually working early treatments. We don't know the final

1610
01:42:14,280 --> 01:42:18,759
Speaker 1: story on January sixth. And this is why you can't

1611
01:42:18,800 --> 01:42:24,040
Speaker 1: countenance this from global monopolies. I want to repeat that

1612
01:42:24,640 --> 01:42:32,760
Speaker 1: global monopolies. If these companies are getting their revenue from oh,

1613
01:42:32,800 --> 01:42:36,680
Speaker 1: I don't know, let's just pick a country, communist China,

1614
01:42:36,880 --> 01:42:40,080
Speaker 1: What interest do they serve and they're allowed to censor?

1615
01:42:41,160 --> 01:42:45,200
Speaker 1: It can't be allowed. I don't care how libertarian you are.

1616
01:42:46,680 --> 01:42:50,920
Speaker 1: Global commerce stops at the water's edge when it comes

1617
01:42:50,960 --> 01:42:56,439
Speaker 1: to national sovereignty because without America, freedom ends and you'll

1618
01:42:56,439 --> 01:43:01,760
Speaker 1: get the corporate state. And that's that's where we are

1619
01:43:01,880 --> 01:43:05,600
Speaker 1: right now with this. And I don't understand why the

1620
01:43:05,680 --> 01:43:10,519
Speaker 1: Republicans have so dropped the ball on this, other than

1621
01:43:10,600 --> 01:43:14,160
Speaker 1: Johnson or Josh Howley and a few others. Why aren't

1622
01:43:14,160 --> 01:43:17,400
Speaker 1: they zeroed in on this like a laser. Why in

1623
01:43:17,439 --> 01:43:21,280
Speaker 1: the National Defense Authorization Act did they let Section two

1624
01:43:21,439 --> 01:43:24,759
Speaker 1: thirty reform slip by? What the hell you doing, Mitch?

1625
01:43:27,720 --> 01:43:31,839
Speaker 1: This is the existential threat for the freedom of ideas

1626
01:43:31,880 --> 01:43:36,240
Speaker 1: and limited government, and yet Republicans aren't focused on this,

1627
01:43:37,439 --> 01:43:43,360
Speaker 1: not at all. They got to be pushed into this. This,

1628
01:43:44,040 --> 01:43:46,400
Speaker 1: This is a great debate in the GOP. By the way,

1629
01:43:46,720 --> 01:43:52,559
Speaker 1: this sort of national security Liz Cheney, Adam Kinzinger, Ben

1630
01:43:52,680 --> 01:43:59,000
Speaker 1: sass Mitt, Romney obsession, especially over Russia, just like Democrats

1631
01:43:59,520 --> 01:44:03,640
Speaker 1: versus turning big tech and the national security apparatus and

1632
01:44:03,680 --> 01:44:08,639
Speaker 1: the DOJ on Americans. Time to choose sides here, folks,

1633
01:44:09,320 --> 01:44:12,920
Speaker 1: it really is and you better be choosing sides on

1634
01:44:12,960 --> 01:44:16,040
Speaker 1: your investments. You know. If you don't, you don't need

1635
01:44:16,080 --> 01:44:19,280
Speaker 1: to read the online financial pages to know that Jimmy

1636
01:44:19,320 --> 01:44:23,479
Speaker 1: Carter's style inflation and stagflation is back. You see it

1637
01:44:23,520 --> 01:44:26,960
Speaker 1: in the supermarket, at the lumber yard, at the gas pump.

1638
01:44:27,200 --> 01:44:30,479
Speaker 1: The value of our dollar is diminishing. It's the time

1660
01:45:42,640 --> 01:45:46,120
Speaker 1: known as Congressman Jason Lewis on the Rush Limbaugh Program.

1663
01:45:53,880 --> 01:45:56,240
Speaker 1: an impact to the great L rushbo had a one

1664
01:45:56,280 --> 01:45:59,200
Speaker 1: eight hundred two eight two two eight eight two. Let's

1665
01:45:59,200 --> 01:46:00,920
Speaker 1: squeeze in a call or two before we get to

1666
01:46:00,960 --> 01:46:04,879
Speaker 1: our EIB high note of the day and Johnson City, Texas.

1667
01:46:05,240 --> 01:46:09,519
Speaker 1: Here's Ken Hi. I just wanted to comment. You made

1668
01:46:10,400 --> 01:46:14,160
Speaker 1: a comment a little bit ago about Standard oil and

1669
01:46:14,560 --> 01:46:18,720
Speaker 1: Facebook being comparable. From an anti trust standpoint, there's a

1670
01:46:18,720 --> 01:46:22,800
Speaker 1: big difference. Standard oil was a necessary commodity and John D.

1671
01:46:23,000 --> 01:46:27,200
Speaker 1: Rockefeller was putting all other competition out of business. Facebook

1672
01:46:27,240 --> 01:46:31,320
Speaker 1: and Twitter and Amazon are not at all necessary. In fact,

1673
01:46:31,600 --> 01:46:34,720
Speaker 1: when they started censoring, I stopped using all three of them,

1674
01:46:34,800 --> 01:46:37,040
Speaker 1: sold my stock in all three of them, and I

1675
01:46:37,080 --> 01:46:40,120
Speaker 1: won't do business with them because I won't support censorship.

1676
01:46:40,520 --> 01:46:44,120
Speaker 1: I would guess the seventy percent of your listeners still

1677
01:46:44,240 --> 01:46:47,400
Speaker 1: use those companies, So seventy percent of your listeners are

1678
01:46:47,439 --> 01:46:51,240
Speaker 1: supporting censorship in this country. Let's say let's just say well,

1679
01:46:51,280 --> 01:46:54,120
Speaker 1: but let's just say you're developing an app, or you're

1680
01:46:54,160 --> 01:46:58,800
Speaker 1: trying to sell a book and incomes oh, I don't

1681
01:46:58,840 --> 01:47:01,599
Speaker 1: know Amazon on That says, if you're going to sell

1682
01:47:01,720 --> 01:47:05,920
Speaker 1: your book here, we're going to promote our own publisher first.

1683
01:47:06,640 --> 01:47:09,000
Speaker 1: Or if you're going to put your app on Google

1684
01:47:09,320 --> 01:47:12,840
Speaker 1: or Apple, or we're going to make certain that our

1685
01:47:12,920 --> 01:47:16,719
Speaker 1: own similar app that we developed from getting the data

1686
01:47:16,760 --> 01:47:19,080
Speaker 1: on your app is going to go up first. That

1687
01:47:19,200 --> 01:47:21,920
Speaker 1: isn't key to your success as a businessman or woman.

1688
01:47:23,439 --> 01:47:26,640
Speaker 1: That is key to your success. But again that censorship

1689
01:47:26,720 --> 01:47:29,479
Speaker 1: on the their part. And if you continue to do

1690
01:47:30,000 --> 01:47:33,560
Speaker 1: business with Amazon, you support them. You can shop at Walmart.

1691
01:47:33,800 --> 01:47:36,240
Speaker 1: Pretty soon amazonal they put they put them out of

1692
01:47:36,280 --> 01:47:39,040
Speaker 1: business though, well they put them out of business. The

1693
01:47:39,120 --> 01:47:41,320
Speaker 1: mom and pop stores are closing and quicker than you

1694
01:47:41,360 --> 01:47:44,880
Speaker 1: can say anti trust, but that listen to mom and

1695
01:47:44,960 --> 01:47:47,839
Speaker 1: pop stores. Everybody used to blame Walmart for the closing

1696
01:47:47,920 --> 01:47:50,840
Speaker 1: mom and pop stores. It was Walmarts that close them.

1697
01:47:50,920 --> 01:47:53,599
Speaker 1: There was the consumers that close, the consumers that wanted

1698
01:47:53,600 --> 01:47:58,320
Speaker 1: the cheaper price, but Walmart's price the losy service. So

1699
01:47:58,439 --> 01:48:00,720
Speaker 1: you're I want to get this straight here. So you

1700
01:48:00,760 --> 01:48:03,599
Speaker 1: were in favor of breaking up Standard Oil, which by

1701
01:48:03,640 --> 01:48:07,320
Speaker 1: the way, ended up dividing into other parts that became

1702
01:48:07,400 --> 01:48:11,000
Speaker 1: just as monopolistic. It didn't work, but you were in

1703
01:48:11,080 --> 01:48:14,439
Speaker 1: favor of that because you deemed it a necessary product.

1704
01:48:14,479 --> 01:48:16,960
Speaker 1: But you're not in favor of applying the same anti

1705
01:48:17,080 --> 01:48:20,400
Speaker 1: trust law to companies that have a much bigger market

1706
01:48:20,439 --> 01:48:24,840
Speaker 1: share today. Don't forget what anti trust is supposed to do.

1707
01:48:24,920 --> 01:48:28,400
Speaker 1: It's supposed to protect us. We don't need Facebook. Your point,

1708
01:48:28,439 --> 01:48:32,280
Speaker 1: you're missing is Facebook is not a necessary service. Neither

1709
01:48:32,400 --> 01:48:35,000
Speaker 1: is Twitter. Neither is the Amazon. We had whale oil

1710
01:48:35,080 --> 01:48:38,640
Speaker 1: before too, before before crewed, we had whale oil. What

1711
01:48:38,680 --> 01:48:40,080
Speaker 1: do we need? What do we need that for? You

1712
01:48:40,080 --> 01:48:42,920
Speaker 1: can make that argument about anything you can. You can,

1713
01:48:42,960 --> 01:48:46,120
Speaker 1: I think you can honestly make the argument Ken if

1714
01:48:46,160 --> 01:48:50,479
Speaker 1: you want that, you shouldn't apply anti trust law at all.

1715
01:48:50,520 --> 01:48:52,599
Speaker 1: That's sort of the libertarian argument. But then you've got

1716
01:48:52,600 --> 01:48:56,240
Speaker 1: a problem with utility. Should utilities be able to operate

1717
01:48:56,400 --> 01:48:59,639
Speaker 1: without a common carrier regulations? Should a utility be able

1718
01:48:59,800 --> 01:49:02,640
Speaker 1: in Johnson City say you know what, We're not going

1719
01:49:02,680 --> 01:49:07,040
Speaker 1: to provide service to Republicans because that's what Google was

1720
01:49:07,080 --> 01:49:14,200
Speaker 1: basically saying on youtubeation of those laws that that has

1721
01:49:14,240 --> 01:49:16,640
Speaker 1: something to do with it. In Johnson City, there is

1722
01:49:16,680 --> 01:49:20,960
Speaker 1: only one utility, so your argument here wouldn't apply. And

1723
01:49:21,000 --> 01:49:24,920
Speaker 1: there's only one Google and one Facebook and one Twitter.

1724
01:49:26,080 --> 01:49:30,760
Speaker 1: They control the platforms. It's but we don't need Facebook.

1725
01:49:30,960 --> 01:49:35,880
Speaker 1: It isn't nary. It is first of all, to disseminate

1726
01:49:35,920 --> 01:49:40,160
Speaker 1: information is absolutely crucial. That is how you mean the

1727
01:49:40,560 --> 01:49:43,519
Speaker 1: Russian meddling was a hoax when they were controlling Facebook ads.

1728
01:49:43,840 --> 01:49:45,760
Speaker 1: That isn't the eye of the beholder, and I think

1729
01:49:45,800 --> 01:49:47,840
Speaker 1: that's where you're wrong, that it's just not going to

1730
01:49:47,960 --> 01:49:49,840
Speaker 1: work that way. We got to take a break. We'll

1731
01:49:49,840 --> 01:49:51,760
Speaker 1: do it now so we can come back with the

1732
01:49:51,760 --> 01:49:54,120
Speaker 1: eib Hindh Note of the Day. Stick around. You're on

1733
01:49:54,160 --> 01:49:57,920
Speaker 1: the Excellence and Broadcasting Network, Okay. I wanted to make

1734
01:49:57,920 --> 01:50:00,639
Speaker 1: certain we had some time for the EI the high

1735
01:50:00,760 --> 01:50:02,559
Speaker 1: Note of the day. Second day in a row. We've

1736
01:50:02,600 --> 01:50:06,200
Speaker 1: been talking about dogs. Well, dogs are amazing, and this

1737
01:50:06,280 --> 01:50:09,760
Speaker 1: is a labrador named Marley saved his owner's life. Are

1738
01:50:09,760 --> 01:50:13,720
Speaker 1: you ready for this? Getting between him and a deadly rattlesnake.

1739
01:50:13,800 --> 01:50:16,800
Speaker 1: Eighteen year old Alex Laredo just stepped outside his home

1740
01:50:16,800 --> 01:50:20,240
Speaker 1: in San Diego when he heard a well the telltale rattle.

1741
01:50:20,360 --> 01:50:24,559
Speaker 1: Right Sensing danger, Marley leapt into action to protect him.

1742
01:50:24,640 --> 01:50:27,479
Speaker 1: Before I could even like turn Marley Alec already ran

1743
01:50:27,680 --> 01:50:30,280
Speaker 1: in between us, basically pushes me out of the way.

1744
01:50:30,400 --> 01:50:32,960
Speaker 1: He barks a few times at the snake. The sinc

1745
01:50:33,080 --> 01:50:35,839
Speaker 1: lunges at him and bites him right on this tongue.

1746
01:50:35,920 --> 01:50:37,680
Speaker 1: It lunch again and have been him on this lip.

1747
01:50:37,800 --> 01:50:41,080
Speaker 1: Marley is a hero. He's my best friend. I don't

1748
01:50:41,080 --> 01:50:42,559
Speaker 1: know what I would do without him. If it was

1749
01:50:42,720 --> 01:50:46,640
Speaker 1: for Marley, I would have got in bitten and it

1750
01:50:46,640 --> 01:50:50,080
Speaker 1: probably would have been really bad. That's an amazing story.

1751
01:50:50,200 --> 01:50:52,200
Speaker 1: I mean, Marley spent a couple of days at the

1752
01:50:52,240 --> 01:50:55,639
Speaker 1: animal hospital. It was a close call, but he pulled through.

1753
01:50:56,640 --> 01:50:59,040
Speaker 1: Laredo got Marley when he was just eleven years old

1754
01:50:59,080 --> 01:51:01,559
Speaker 1: to help him, to help him around the house and

1755
01:51:01,640 --> 01:51:05,000
Speaker 1: boost his confidence. Dogs are amazing at that and Marley

1756
01:51:05,080 --> 01:51:08,080
Speaker 1: helped helped him achieve all of his dreams. Really and

1757
01:51:08,200 --> 01:51:11,200
Speaker 1: now he can add saving his life to the list.

1758
01:51:12,280 --> 01:51:14,160
Speaker 1: You know, if you guy grew up with cats and dogs,

1759
01:51:14,200 --> 01:51:17,000
Speaker 1: and our family we had cats, collies and shepherds, and

1760
01:51:17,280 --> 01:51:19,439
Speaker 1: we had cats hanging around and the dogs and the

1761
01:51:19,479 --> 01:51:23,160
Speaker 1: cats actually got along pretty well. But what they bring

1762
01:51:23,200 --> 01:51:25,880
Speaker 1: to a family and what they bring to you as

1763
01:51:25,920 --> 01:51:30,200
Speaker 1: an individual is absolutely remarkable. And I know, what a

1764
01:51:30,240 --> 01:51:33,720
Speaker 1: great way to end this program. And remember how much

1765
01:51:33,800 --> 01:51:36,760
Speaker 1: Rush loved these little critters as well, So it's been

1766
01:51:36,800 --> 01:51:38,120
Speaker 1: a pleasure. We'll see it down the road.
