Sponsors like Tax Network USA.
So let me ask you guys, frankly, are you receiving letters right now from the IRS claiming you owe back taxes?
Because every day, the IRS is sending out thousands of lien notices to hard-working Americans like yourself.
Remember, they didn't just bring in those 85,000 new IRS agents, the ones that are armed, right?
They didn't do that to go after the billionaires, folks.
There's not enough billionaires on the planet, let alone in America.
They're doing it to go after people like yourselves.
So, as penalties and interest fees pile up, the IRS gives you no clear path to resolution.
Don't speak to them, folks.
They are not your friends.
Ask me how I know.
I've had my fair share of dealings with these three ledger agencies and government.
They aren't your friends.
So, to reach a team of licensed tax professionals that can help you reduce
And guys, while we're at it, with the stock market uncertainty, inflation through the roof, absolute insanity across the board, don't forget to protect yourself from the
Abject ridiculousness of this world with the Birch Gold Group.
Look, you see the markets.
You see the volatility.
You know the Fed is just printing more and more money.
That means that your costs go up and your quality of life goes down.

Make the right informed decision.
Check it out today.
And now guys, let's take a look at some of the top headlines from the week.
This whole week at the DNC, they're trying to create a fake image of who Kamala Harris really is.
They're telling you she's some hardened prosecutor.
But in fact, she was named the most liberal prosecutor in all of California.
She was also named the most liberal senator in the United States Senate in 2019.
And she even expunged the criminal record of several illegal immigrant drug dealers.
Just got rid of it.
Like, it never happened.
I mean, come on.
These are great people.
We want them in our streets, I guess, according to Democrats and Kamala Harris.
But it turns out that Kamala doesn't just want to defund the police.
She doesn't want any police at all.
Well, on the issue of militarization of police, I have a longstanding record of saying we need to demilitarize police and we really need to get to a point where communities, frankly, don't need a law enforcement response to what's happening in their communities because they are safe communities.
Did you guys catch that?
She said, and I quote, we really need to get to a point where communities frankly don't need a law enforcement response to what's happening in their communities, end of quote.
I mean, you seriously?
This week, some speakers have talked about Kamala Harris's Back on Track program.
That program actually allowed an illegal immigrant to avoid prison.
What did that illegal end up doing?
He ended up assaulting a woman, because of course they did.
Check it out.
I was robbed.
They tried to run me over with a getaway car.
He almost killed me right over here.
He was laughing as he fractured my skull.
Amanda's attacker was an illegal immigrant drug dealer, arrested twice before, but released by San Francisco D.A., Kamala Harris.
If Kamala Harris hadn't let him out, this never would have happened to me.
Kamala put violent illegals, convicted felons, back on the streets.
Kamala just doesn't care about protecting people like me.
Make America Great Again Inc.
is responsible for the content of this advertising.
One speaker at the DNC basically let their plans be known.
They have to pretend to be normal now, and then they can act all crazy.
Seriously, that's actually what he said.
We got 70 days to act right, y'all.
That's right.
After 70 days, we can go back to acting crazy.
Right?
Can you believe this?
And this is exactly what the media is doing, right?
They're gaslighting Americans, they're telling us Kamala's a moderate, they're telling us she's gonna do crackdown on the border and she's gonna fix inflation and do all of the things she literally could have been doing for the last three and a half, three and three quarters years, but didn't.
Because they have no intention of ever doing any of those things.
They're trying to act normal to win the Midwest vote and get people that would never otherwise vote for Kamala Harris to believe that she's gonna be normal.
But she's not.
And they're saying it out loud.
Don't fall for it.
Don't let yourself be gaslit.
What else is going on at the DNC?
It's a convention about the hatred of one man.
They don't have any ideas to fix the economy.
They don't even address the problems.
During the first night of the DNC, for example, they said the word Trump 147 times.
But strangely enough, they said inflation just three times and crime just six times.
They don't want to talk about their policies because their policies are trash.
They don't want to talk about inflation because they caused it.
They don't want to talk about crime because they wanted to defund the police and are soft on crime and criminals and illegals and the fentanyl coming across our border and the human trafficking and child sex trafficking happening on a daily basis.
What's their plan on the border?
The DNC's 2024 platform, which mentions Biden's second term 19 different times, endorses a bill to create a pathway to citizenship for the millions of illegal aliens in the country today.
Their comprehensive immigration plan is to open the floodgates to millions and give them all access to Social Security and Medicare.
Those systems are already struggling.
They're almost broken.
They want to now add millions who've never paid into those systems onto the roster.
What do you think that does for you?
What do you think that does for the future benefits you are actually entitled to receive?
Let's just say it's not good, folks.
But when they try to make a difference between Kamala Harris and Joe Biden, even though she's part of this administration, even though this administration's own press secretary said there is no light between Joe Biden and Kamala Harris on the issues,
They're trying to tell you that now she's magically gonna change.
She's not pushing Joe to do any of these things now, again, because she has no intention of actually doing any of them.
She just will tell you whatever it takes to get your vote.
Kamala, the chameleon.
She's whatever she needs to be to get that vote, and then she'll go and be the radical that she's always been.
Guys, this isn't all, though.
The bill Kamala Harris supports, the U.S.
Citizenship Act, would allow illegal immigrants deported during the Trump administration to come back into the U.S.
and become citizens.
I mean, how crazy is this stuff?
It's not like we're a little bit off here.
This is radical stuff.
They want to flood our country.
In many cases, tens of millions of people who, in many cases, may not have any education, may not add any value, but they will be reliable Democrat voters because they will be dependent on your taxpayer dollars to survive.
And as long as you have dependents, you have people that will vote for Democrats.
What about the economy?
Well, Kamala Harris wants to start a second Great Depression.
She's supporting a proposal to tax unrealized gains.
Okay, think about it.
Unrealized gains.
You buy a house for $100,000, you hold on to it for 30 years, it's now worth a million dollars.
Okay?
30 years is a long time.
Unrealized gains is the $900,000, but you don't have any cash to pay it off.
You don't have any cash to pay it off.
You just still own the house that you live in.
But now she wants to tax the $900,000 that it went up, even though you didn't sell it, even if you have no way of paying it.
Okay, again, this means people would have to pay a tax on assets they have not even sold yet.
That would completely destroy investment in this country.
People would literally flee.
People wouldn't buy homes.
There'd be no reason to.
And get this, the Labor Department this week announced that the nation's economy added far fewer jobs last year and earlier this year than previously reported.
Huh!
I'm shocked to hear this, folks.
It's almost like every report, and I think all but one, maybe two, were all redacted later and changed and lowered because they're lying to you.
They'll tell you whatever it is to make it seem like it's great, and then they give you the actual numbers a couple months later.
Then they give you the glowing report, and the actual numbers come out a couple months later.
To the average person, it looks like things are going great, but they're not.
In fact, so we are clear, monthly payroll statistics overstated new jobs by over 800,000 during the 12-month period.
That's a lot of jobs to be overstated by.
Right?
That's insane.
That's a downward revision of nearly 30%.
30%.
A third.
They revised things downward a third from what they were telling you.
You know, Biodynamics.
It's working.
We should probably play the clip of Kamala Harris talking about just how great Biodynamics really is.
But over the year, they revised things down nearly 30%.
Why is no one talking about that?
Why won't the media point that out?
Because they're all in it for Kamala Harris and the Democrats, despite the fact that those people are objectively failing Americans on a daily basis.
Are they just cooking the books at this point?
How can that happen?
Just by clerical error?
How can it happen each and every quarter, each and every reporting period?
Here's my father laying it all out in North Carolina yesterday.
Before we begin, I want to address the massive scandal around the revised job numbers that were just announced this morning, a little while ago, just before I came up, I got to see them.
And it really isn't a revision, it's a total lie.
Total lie.
There's never been any revision like this.
They wanted it to come out after the election, but somehow it got leaked.
It got leaked.
Government leaks, too.
The Harris-Biden administration has been caught fraudulently manipulating job statistics to hide the true extent of the economic ruin that they've inflicted on America.
The new data from the Bureau of Labor Statistics shows that the administration padded the numbers with an extra, listen to this one, 818,000 jobs that don't exist.
So they said they existed.
And they never did exist.
They built them up so that they could say what a wonderful job they're doing.
No, we've never had numbers like this.
And guys, furthermore, Kamala's vision for the country is quite literally taking your money and giving it to illegal immigrants.
Luckily for her, the media isn't covering it.
Analysis from the Media Research Center shows that the legacy media's coverage of Kamala Harris has been 84% positive.
While it has been 89% negative for my father.
Do you think that's fair?
Do you think that's right?
Given her history, given her policies, given that she's hiding from them, given that she won't even answer their questions or do a press conference, something that's not on a teleprompter, do you think that she should get that much positive coverage while my father, who's willing to go out there, who actually have policies that work, they've worked in the past, they will work again, gets 89% negative coverage?
Shouldn't they be looking at the mainstream media and maybe, I don't know, have the Federal Election Commission go after them for an in-kind contribution to the Democrat Party?
That's trillions of dollars of free advertising pretending the Democrats are doing a great job.
The Democrats are relying solely on good media coverage and so-called vibes and cheap applause lines, right?
It's a joyful campaign, Kamala Harris.
It's one filled with joy.
I don't see a lot of joy at the supermarket checkout lines.
I don't see a lot of joy, people at the pump.
I certainly don't see a lot of joy in the Middle East or in Russia, Ukraine.
Where wars are going all over the place.
I certainly don't see a lot of joy in Taiwan when they're wondering when they're going to get invaded because America's weak leadership under the Harris-Biden administration has allowed for these things to happen.
It's not joy.
That's just the DNC talking points that the media is gladly and willing to run with.
For example,
Here's an interesting clip from Michelle Obama's speech, which is a perfect example of the outright delusion of the so-called political elite.
Check this out for yourself.
You see, my mom, in her steady, quiet way, lived out that striving sense of hope every single day of her life.
She believed that all children, all people have value.
That anyone can succeed if given the opportunity.
She and my father didn't aspire to be wealthy.
In fact, they were suspicious of folks who took more than they needed.
So, this is funny.
I mean, Michelle Obama is literally telling everyone that her parents didn't trust rich people.
Okay.
Didn't trust them, you know?
They earn more than they deserve.
They earn more than their share, their fair share.
They have more than their fair share.
So, I'm just curious.
What would Michelle Obama's parents think of her today?
She has several homes worth tens of millions of dollars from Hawaii to Martha's Vineyard.
I think the Martha's Vineyard one, what, 18 million?
Waterfront property while preaching about climate change and rising sea levels, you know.
These people are so phony.
They're so fake.
Someone worth tens of millions, if not hundreds of millions of dollars, can tell you that her parents wouldn't trust anyone that has more than their fair share.
What exactly did Michelle Obama and Barack Obama do for those tens or hundreds of millions of dollars?
Wasn't exactly toiling.
It wasn't exactly a lot of hard work.
I mean, give me a break.
But they can do that with a straight face, without any appreciation of the abject insanity and irony of what they're talking about.
These people are so phony and would rather listen to what they say than how they actually live their lives.
They expect you just to go along blindly, do as I say, not as I do.
That should be the party mantra of the Democrats, especially Michelle Obama, because that one's truly, truly special.
And speaking of phony, on Tuesday, Kamala Harris made Air Force Two fly in circles for 15 minutes so she can finish watching Doug's speech.
Guys, remember, you don't get to have plastic straws, but they can burn.
All that fuel that they want, as much as they want.
And trust me, Air Force Two, I've been in it.
It's 757.
You know, burns quite a bit of fuel for the climate change activists.
And just to keep it in the air for another 15 minutes, just so you can watch the end of a speech.
I don't know.
Kind of ridiculous.
Again, do as I say, not as I do.
And lastly, guys, we saw perhaps one of the worst cases of TDS in real time at the DNC in Chicago.
Where a trans member of the New Jersey delegation had a bizarre moment during the roll call.
Check this out.
My name is Dr. Joey Perella, pronouns she, her, hers.
I'm a proud resident of the Garden State.
I'm proud to stand with Kamala Harris and Tim Walz because they stand with the LGBTQ community.
It's time to turn the page on Trump.
Thank you.
Now, if you're suffering from TDS, I urge you to consult your doctor or maybe just look at the border crisis.
Look at actual inflation.
Look at the actual job numbers, not the one they tell you when they publish, but the ones where they always revise it down a couple of weeks later or a couple of months later.
And then try to get a grip on reality.
And guys, this is one more that you have to check out, because I literally feel like I'm Jim Carrey in the Truman Show on this one.
A speaker, I think it was Monday night, the DNC, it was maybe Tuesday, literally got on a stage and said, if Donald Trump gets elected, he may weaponize the DOJ against his political rivals.
He may actually have the FBI come knocking on their doors.
Trump may actually do that.
That's the biggest threat to democracy ever.
They said that with a straight face.
Honestly, guys, I'm not even sure if they know.
I don't even know if they know what's happening.
I don't even know that they know that they've literally been doing it.
Who's weaponized the DOJ more than the Harris-Biden administration?
The FBI has come knocking on our door.
A lot of conservatives have gotten that knock, not a lot of liberals.
How many people has the left thrown in jail because they're the political opposition?
How many people has this DOJ under the Biden-Harris regime gone after?
And they're worried about us doing it to them?
They're literally doing it with impunity.
And I'm not even sure they know it.
That's how deranged they truly are.
Check this out and see for yourself.
Donald Trump would be able to weaponize the Department of Justice to go after his political opponents.
He could even turn the FBI into his own personal police force.
That is not how it works in America!
That's how it works in dictatorships!
And guys, with that, we're gonna go to our exclusive interview with the great David Limbaugh.
All right guys, joining me now, best-selling author, legendary columnist, lawyer, David Limbaugh.
David, thank you so much for being here.
Thank you so much for having me on, Don.
I appreciate it.
Well, we appreciate you taking the time.
I mean, but I guess to get into everything, first off, I'd love to get your thoughts on the big picture view right now on this moment in American political history.
I mean, you predicted a lot of stuff in your book, Guilty by Reason of Insanity, of where the Democrat Party was going.
And honestly, I say it all the time.
I feel like I wake up some days like I'm the star of The Truman Show, like the world must be messing with me.
It can't be real.
But the level of corruption on the left is more vicious, the level of insanity than perhaps even you could have imagined.
What do you think?
Where do we go from here?
I totally agree, and I don't pretend to have been prescient in that book, but just a realist.
And Russ used to describe himself as a mayor of Reelville.
Well, I'm one of its citizens.
I'm in the real world, and we are experiencing what is a
We're good to go.
Through Biden, through puppeteering Biden, he has been able to get away with it during these last three and a half years.
And so they're out of the closet now.
And the question is whether our culture has changed so much that we're now in the minority and they can win even without cheating.
I don't believe that.
I do not believe we've gone that crazy that fast in terms of the populace.
And I think we'll beat them back with your dad at the helm.
But the left has been telling us for decades who they are, so it should be no surprise.
One of the main problems I see is that our side, we have too many wimps and beta males on our side who are unwilling to call evil for what it is.
Your dad came along and called it for what he is, and so he's depicted as a terrible guy for having recognized and called these people out.
But it is true and they are evil and going along to get along and this idea of bipartisanship.
You can't compromise with the left.
They want to defeat you.
Therefore, we have to battle them as hard as they're battling us to try to take over the culture.
We have to preserve the culture and be aggressive about it.
That is what your dad's doing.
That's why he's resonating and has resonated.
I contend that Donald Trump and his movement were not born in a vacuum.
The left
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah, we all ought to be civil and nice, but we foremost ought to save the country, and that is what your dad is doing.
The left subscribes to the philosophy, the Marxist philosophy, that the end justifies the means.
That means it's okay to lie.
They're godless people, for the most part, not all of them, and they're attacking us in every way.
Your dad is standing up, and I'm not just
I don't know.
Yeah, you touched on something that is really interesting, because I've actually said it a lot and people, you know, some people get it, some people sort of, you know, poo-poo it, but that Biden has actually been incredibly effective for the sort of the Obama Marxist agenda.
I always said that Obama, to your point, would have done much more had he been able to get away with it without, you know, destroying his legacy, without being criticized.
You know, they like their, you know, the mansion on the water in Martha's Vineyard.
I mean, it's beautiful.
They want to be able to do that.
But they've used Joe Biden as sort of the useful idiot.
You know, no one believes he's ever probably been in charge since he took over the presidency.
It's not just the last couple of weeks that magically everyone figured it out.
I wrote about it in my book, Liberal Privilege.
I mean, you ask any, you know, neuropsych specialist, any brain surgeon, any of this, you know,
If you had two of the traumatic brain injuries, the aneurysms that he has had, like it's statistically almost literally impossible to not have, you know, cognitive decline.
Certainly, you know, you could be a nice grandfather, but you probably couldn't run the free world.
But it didn't matter because they'd stick in whatever they wanted in front of him.
So in terms of the radical left movement, he's actually been an incredibly effective, I don't want to say leader because he's not the guy leading, but a mechanism, a crudgel
For pushing the Marxist agenda.
And I think that's only going to be furthered, obviously, by Kamala Harris.
But I'd like to hear your thoughts first on Biden, and obviously we'll get into Kamala in the media shortly.
Yeah, well, interestingly, you said you wrote about it in your book.
When did your book come out?
I remember the book, I just don't remember the year.
Summer 2020, and I'm not a journalist, I'm not, you know, I'm just like, I had time on my hands, I started looking into it, I'm like, wait a second, like, there has to be a problem with this.
Like, you know, if you have that kind of, one aneurysm, just statistically speaking, over time, it adds up.
These are problematic things.
He's had two
Yeah.
Like, almost to the point of death.
Like, of course it's going to do that.
You interview Ronnie Jackson, the White House doctor, you interview a couple, you know, neurosurgeons, and, you know, not one of them would tell you, like, there's literally almost a zero percent chance that you don't have severe cognitive issues in the future from that.
And that happened years ago.
And not only that, we observed it with our own eyes.
And there was a reason he campaigned from the basement.
That is to say, he didn't campaign.
And I went back to see, because I kept saying, we're acting like this is a revelation, we're having an epiphany after the debate.
Are you kidding me?
I did a Google search of my own columns.
I quit writing columns a few years ago.
I found one immediately that I'd written in October of 2020, I think.
Yes, almost four years ago, where I said it was a big scandal that the media is covering up his cognitive decline.
Then, we all knew.
So, in addition to your objective evidence,
That he had to have suffered mental decline.
We saw it.
But I think Biden also is a nasty man.
I watched him way before he became incompetent.
He's nasty.
He's dishonest.
He's a plagiarist.
He's a political opportunist and demagogue.
Reagan called him a demagogue.
He was, I remember when he went after Judge Bork and Clarence Thomas in those hearings, just a smarmy, self-righteous, smug idiot.
He thinks he's smart and he acts like he's smart.
But he's not.
Well, he was known, you know, and my dad, you know, obviously had a lot of political connections, frankly, on the other side of the aisle prior to getting into politics and from the 80s and 90s.
And I mean, he was literally known as the dumbest man in the United States Congress, not just the Senate.
And this is not me being like, hey, you're beating up an old man.
Like this was literally known.
Now, you know, again, often wrong, never in doubt.
But yeah.
They have this thing where, you know, he's the nice guy from Pennsylvania.
He's from Scranton.
He's a blue-collar guy.
Like, he's not.
Like, I've spent more time in Pennsylvania in my life than Joe Biden has.
I went to school there for nine years.
Like, it's an amazing thing, but he was able to get away with it.
I think he's probably good at marketing, probably good at selling the nonsense, but there's nothing nice about him.
He's never been a nice guy.
He's been a vicious guy who's able to play that nice card pretty well, and people have bought into the lie.
But I have no patience for the way he was characterized during the campaign when the Never Trumpers went on our side, went to support him, actually support him, and they wrote columns in the Atlantic of how he was a gentle, kind, humane, empathetic person.
He is the opposite, and anybody that says that has no discernment.
And I don't trust their judgment.
And they've proven themselves to be wrong.
Have they apologized?
No.
They've dug in deeper.
We've got the David French's now actually writing and claiming to be a Christian for Christian reasons.
He's going to support a person, Kamala Harris, who is a godless Marxist.
And somehow they justify it.
I don't know what it is about your dad that drives these people
Absolutely insane.
Trump derangement syndrome is real.
Yeah, Trump derangement syndrome is real.
You know, I don't know that there's a cure other than maybe more Trump.
It's like more cowbell from the old SNL skit.
But, you know, I guess, David, let's let's get to the media then for a second, you know, because, you know, from the the lawfare, Russia, Russia, Russia, the assassination attempt, you know, the media's push for censorship
I mean, it literally feels like we are living in dystopian times, but it also has all the tenets of actual Marxism, right?
Russia, Russia, Russia.
There was no evidence, but it was the gospel for four years.
There are some that are still pretending like it's real.
You had an assassination attempt of a former president, at the time the presumptive nominee, now the nominee of one of the two major parties, the person who was leading in the polls at the time.
And it's as though it didn't happen.
This is a month ago.
It basically didn't happen.
What is going on?
I mean, how are they able to get away with this?
They have the presumptive nominee Kamala Harris.
It's been a couple of weeks.
For almost a month, she did no interviews, took no questions.
How is it possible?
How are they able to get away with it?
How are regular citizens not up in arms?
It's like they don't even know what's going on right now.
It's scary.
Well, I think part of it is we are so divided, clearly divided, and no matter what they do, they're going to vote against us because they think we're pure evil.
It's interesting because their policies are pure evil, and they characterize your dad and the rest of us.
By the way, it's not just about your dad.
They hate every one of us that supports him.
Yeah, that's right.
And when he said that- Tough but fair.
They haven't talked about this forever, not that I have a platform, but
That this isn't just about your dad.
They're furious at him because he's marshaled the rest of us against them and against their insanity.
But the media is the most shameless, disgraceful institution I have ever seen.
They are no longer reporters.
They attempt to influence what's going on.
You can see the montages.
Russ used to play him, now Sean Hannity and the rest, Jesse, they all play these montages where they say the exact same words.
As if they got in a meeting together.
By the way, they do.
You know they meet.
Well, the DNC sends out the talking points and they just go lockstep, right?
They just follow them in line.
They have no pride, except again they don't care because the end justifies the means.
Lying is justified.
Our side doesn't do that.
I don't care if your dad exaggerates and if he goes off on hyperbole or whatever, he's an authentic, honest person.
What you see is what you get from him.
And people instinctively know that.
And those of us on the right, like that interview he did with Elon Musk.
My gosh, those two guys talking, how authentic and organic that conversation was.
The liberals, the left, criticized it because it was not an interview.
No!
These interviews are contrived.
It was so much better at getting at the truth and the real Donald Trump and the real Elon Musk than if it were a staged, canned interview.
It was a conversation.
And boy, I think if that continues to go viral, that alone will counter what the media is doing.
But here's the thing, Don.
They're lying about everything.
They're creating this fantasy world about Kamala being some sensational woman and distorting her record.
And she can change on a dime.
It's not just she changed her mind.
She doesn't even admit she changed her mind.
She acted like she never had this record that we have.
No, she wants to do no tax on tips, stealing Trump's policy, when she was literally deciding to vote to expand the rules to allow the IRS to go after those same wage earners that made tips.
It's like it never happened.
She was never the Borders are, even though there's 30 articles.
I had a guy criticize me, try to get me fact-checked for calling her the Borders are.
It was at Axios.
The exact reporter, not just the publication, that exact reporter at the same publication two years ago wrote an article about her being, and I quote, the barter czar.
It's mind-numbing, but they're going back and they're editing years-old articles to change facts as though they're recreating history.
I've never seen anything like it.
I thought it was bad under Trump, and I had to deal with a lot of that.
I did 50 hours of congressional testimony for Russia, Russia, Russia for treason, which, as I always say, is a crime punishable by death.
Minor details.
For me, that's like an average Wednesday morning at this point.
I know.
It's insane and it's happening and they get away with it each and every time and the elections are still closed because not enough people care to learn.
It's more Orwellian than Orwell could have ever predicted.
We're talking about Kamala going from the least popular person who couldn't get one vote in the 2020 primary
And now she's just been anointed, not just appointed, but anointed in complete contravention of democratic processes, and they always hail their own protection of democracy, which is another whole subject we could destroy.
I'm not buying it.
I don't want to call it the sugar high everybody's talking about.
I think this is a deliberate, strategic conspiracy on the part of the media to create some alternate reality.
David, 100%!
There's no, there's literally, there's no other plausible solution, right?
We've been lied to a lot in the last few years.
We've called it out.
Many of us, you know, probably you as well, you know, I know I did.
The things I got, you know, when I said, you know, years ago, like, of course, like, the Wuhan lab leak, like, happened from the lab that studies the exact virus.
Like, of course it did.
Like, what are you talking about there?
Don, you don't know what you're talking about.
You're not a virologist.
I'm like, you don't have
You don't have to be a virologist.
You just have to have a functioning brain.
Like, of course, like, no, no, no, it didn't come from there.
It came from three feet outside of the exact place that studies, like, no, it didn't.
Like, it can't have.
And so they're, they're taking the thing.
They're trying to tell you that the Ockman's razor, the, you know, the most plausible answer is not anywhere remotely near the truth.
And I just, I can't imagine they get away with it that much longer.
And yet they seem to each and every day.
But they are never, as you alluded to a minute ago, held accountable.
This Russia thing?
I marvel.
They have been caught with their pants down on that so overwhelmingly, and they have never apologized.
And in fact, they continue to act as if it's true.
Schiff and those guys?
I cannot believe it.
This is not the real world we're living in.
But I still say there's enough of us in realville
That and the majority of Americans still are.
And when we get when Kamala is forced out, even in a biased debate, she'll never go on Fox.
She hadn't agreed to go on Fox, has she?
No.
So it's going to be a slanted debate.
But your dad will still kick her butt and he'll expose her for who she is.
He wouldn't even have to prepare.
He's shown himself so good at what he does and so conversant with the fact.
And by the way, I tweeted that the other day that
When you watch that interview with Elon Musk, or listen to it as I did it live, he's so intimately familiar with the facts.
He has a great memory.
He's engaged in all of that stuff, in every issue they talked about, and in stuff that doesn't even intersect politics.
He's such a businessman with such knowledge.
And he's a generalist, but he's also a specific guy with attention to detail.
And when people see that, and they see he's the real guy in that conversation, as opposed to this caricature the left paints, they're going to gravitate toward him, and they're going to gravitate against Kamala.
I have to believe that God has not given up on the United States yet.
God preserved your dad with that miraculous missing of the shot.
Yeah.
The assassination attempt.
And he's not done with us yet.
Therefore, she's going to be exposed.
And America's not done yet.
And we're going to fight back with your dad at the helm in another six months, in my opinion.
Yeah.
By the way, you mentioned your social handle.
Give us your Twitter handle.
You have a great social feed.
You know, sort of, you get in depth on a lot of issues.
Really good, well-reasoned type of stuff.
You know, a lot of stuff out there is firebrand.
I think you do a great job of that.
Will you just give us your handle so that everyone following can check it out as well?
That's my name, at David Limbaugh, real original.
Yeah, hey, listen, hey, sometimes simple is best.
You know, David, when we talk about America first, when we say, you know, making America great again, you know, what does that mean to you?
Obviously, there's things like border security and lowering costs and safety, security, but, you know, on a philosophical level, what should we be striving to achieve for long-lasting prosperity as a nation?
You know, I think there's been a deliberate distortion of this issue.
What they try to do is... I think this is what gets under the craw of the Never Trumpers.
A lot of them are neocons.
And by the way, I reject the idea that neocon is an underhanded slap at Jews.
Your dad has been the most pro-Semitic, pro-Israel president ever.
His son-in-law is a Jew.
Evangelical Christians are the strongest friends of Israel and of Judaism and Jews, and so the idea that we are—I just used a Biden—the idea that America First is somehow a tricky way to go after neocons and neocons of some—no.
America First simply puts America's interests at the forefront.
It's not to the exclusion of other countries.
In fact, we are the leader of freedom for the world and always have been.
And if we don't preserve America, the rest of the country, the rest of the world and its liberty implodes.
But I totally disagree with all these ideas that there's somehow that we want to help ourselves and the hell with the rest of the world.
No, we want to help ourselves first.
And to the extent that we have resources left over, we send them to other people, to other nations to the extent we can.
But, we gotta guard the border, we have to protect our sovereignty, which is what your dad is trying to do, because if we don't protect our sovereignty, we don't have a nation.
I mean, that's cliché, but the left obviously doesn't believe it.
And they don't love America as founded.
We love America as founded, so we have to continue to advocate America's constitutional tradition, and we allow our worldview
I don't know.
I mean, David, you're more of an academic than I am.
You've studied all these things.
Has there ever been a civilization, you know, I don't want to say empire because somehow empire will be contrived as, you know, racist or whatever it may be, subjugating of others.
But has there ever been a civilization that hasn't put itself first that has actually managed to survive?
No, but America has been... not at all.
It's impossible.
It's like the principle in an airplane where you get your own seatbelt, your own oxygen mask on before you take care of the kids.
You have to be a vibrant nation with robust and liberty and the rule of law in order to
To protect yourself, to preserve the freedom of your citizens.
We're all for immigration provided it's orderly and the immigrants can come in at a time under color of law and rule of law so that they will orderly assimilate in the United States and embrace our values.
But the left rejects our values.
That's why they don't even care about that.
It's not just for votes.
They don't believe in America as founded anymore.
I don't care if somebody says I'm radical.
You can look at their policies.
Elon, Omar, they're all, you can say, oh, there's a moderate Democrat.
Name me one moderate Democrat.
Yeah, there may be a moderate Democrat living somewhere in Iowa.
They don't have any representation in the United States Congress because you can't win.
You need the radical California money, you need the radical Soros money, you need, you know, it's impossible.
I'm sure there are definitely, you know, moderate Democrat Americans
You know, maybe they differ, you know, with the conservative side on, you know, the abortion issue or a couple other things, but, like, there are reasonable people out there, hard-working blue-collar Democrats, and they just don't have any representation because it's physically impossible to win.
You can maybe win a local school board seat, although I think the radical left has taken most of those over, too, but it's almost impossible to get to
You know, a national platform in the Democrat Party without adapting those radical rules.
You know, if you do, you'll get you'll get thrown out in one term.
In addition to that, though, the moderate Democrats won't vote for anybody but the extreme Democrats, because that's all that there are that are running and prevail.
And but they wouldn't be able to do that if they didn't successfully demonize your dad.
Uh, and, and divert us from real policy to personality and make us all, and by the way, again, it's not about your dad.
We are all racist.
What, how am I, what's the evidence that I'm a racist?
That I'm a Republican.
That's all.
No, David, that you exist.
That you're Rush Limbaugh's brother.
That's it.
But I, I have one of my good
Black friends in high school wouldn't come to the reunion, our high school 50th reunion, I heard, because I was going and another guy was going and why, even though we were really good friends, because we're racist.
Why are we racist?
Because we conspicuously support Trump.
It's heartbreaking.
I called him and challenged him on the phone.
Didn't do any good.
He says it's not just me.
He's fallen out with so many people.
My point is, the left has evilly demonized Republicans and they've destroyed race relations.
They've gone so far to reversing the strides we've made by painting half the population as race.
If you're black and you're told that half the people hate you, how would that make you feel?
We're good to go.
Who, you know, did not earn it.
You know, that's what I sort of stand with DEI in these positions.
And then they fail in those positions, and then their lives are worse off, and then you reaffirm some of the nonsense that goes along with all of this.
But that clearly happened under Obama.
I mean, have you looked into that in detail?
How that started?
How it went?
Was that by design?
Because it feels like...
That everything the left does is designed to destroy the progress that was made.
Because without that strife, without that hatred, they don't really have much to stand on.
Because it's not like people are better off.
You look at Kamala Harris, you look at Joe Biden right now, no one's better off today than they were four years ago.
But if you still feel like you're a victim, maybe that's how they get you, to vote for them.
That's it.
And you just said it.
I was going to say it a minute ago.
If you AB our policies—our side on A, their side on B—they can't support any of their policies.
They're all failures.
Socialism killed 100 million people in the 20th century.
Capitalism produces prosperity.
Capitalism, therefore, is more compassionate than socialism.
But they paint us as evil, uncompassionate, racist people.
We believe, by the way, in the equality of all people, equality of opportunity, and the equal dignity of every person created by God, in God's image.
And yet the left patronizes and condescends to blacks, treats them like they're inferior, they gotta be protected, and they do this to all these groups, these political identity groups.
I mean, they can't get an ID, David.
I mean, that's way too complicated to get an ID.
How can they possibly do that?
I mean, it's really disgusting, actually.
It's so racist and then yet you call them out on it and you're the racist.
I never understand it.
It's such a, you know, the mental gymnastics that it takes for them to get to their conclusions as well as to justify their own is truly spectacular.
It's spectacular, and they're geniuses at strategy and patience.
And they have been doing this, getting back to your original question there, they've been doing this for decades.
And again, I don't, I'm not a big conspiracy theorist, but it's now to the point where there's so many things that are coming true that I can't help it to believe these things are actually, I actually think that the Marxists, the global Marxists, whatever you want to call them, fascists, they're also fascists,
They're tyrants.
They're tyrannical.
They're anti-democracy.
They're anti-constitutional republic.
They're all about power and telling people what to do and eliminating our freedoms through the administrative state, through global coercion, through this environmentalist hoax.
But they sow chaos.
And you can look at Soros and these other people globally, the World Economic Forum,
This is real stuff where they want us to quit making babies.
They're anti-life across the board, whether it's abortion or not reproducing and killing our domestic energy so that we can't have prosperity and our lifestyle and prosperity are destroyed.
These people are so corrupt, so they're sowing chaos through the funding, international funding, their own funding,
Because it undermines these calls of racism and this promotion of DEI and all the rest.
The 72 genders.
This is abject insanity and anybody with half a brain and half a moral compass knows how crazy this stuff is.
David, 72 genders.
There's like 4,976 since I last checked.
Come on, not 72.
Don't be crazy.
I can't believe you haven't acknowledged the other
You know, 4,900 of them.
But we have to call it for what it is now.
No more.
We can't just let Donald Trump be the guy that calls things out.
We all have to call this out.
And be unafraid.
You notice how many people, even on our side, are still tiptoeing around things?
I think we're getting away from that.
I'm so glad you said that.
You used the word that I always use, which is, we got to become unafraid.
I see it.
I mean, the cancel culture thing, it doesn't exist the same way.
You know, words that were verboten, that were part of our, you know, I mean, we're maybe a little different in age, but that would have been common parts of our vernacular.
I guess two years ago you wouldn't be able to be seen in polite society if you said them.
Now they're being used in everyday language, in discourse again, because they didn't mean, again, the thing that they're interpreted to mean for convenience.
I think people are largely over that.
And yet, to your point about being unafraid, they've shown that even the most powerful man in the world, my father as President of the United States, they can cancel him.
They can, you know, they channel all their arrows, all their slings on one guy and they can cancel him.
If they get reasonable Americans, I'm not saying right or left, but you get, you know, certainly all the conservatives get it.
I imagine there's a bunch of independents that are also sick of this stuff and there's probably some of those moderate Dems, you know, in Iowa and Michigan and Wisconsin that are like,
You know, is the party of, you know, the squad, you know, are those really my Democrat values?
And if those people band together and call this stuff out and become unafraid, I think there's no stopping us.
It just has to happen.
I agree with that, and I want to repeat something or reiterate something I said a minute ago.
It's not just that there are a lot of people who realize that insanity is insanity and what they're doing is not normal.
When Sarah Huckabee Sanders gave her speech in response to the State of the Union a few years ago, and she talked about crazy versus normal.
That's exactly it.
We've all been talking about it.
But I want to repeat this because I don't want us to underestimate the force of it.
They are able to have these people accept, I mean their people, accept this insanity because they've been trained, indoctrinated to believe that the alternative is even worse than the evil they're promoting.
And the alternative is Donald Trump and they've depicted him as so evil.
Such a threat.
He's gonna create a bloodbath.
The way they have lied to take his quotes out of context and to make him look like the crazy tyrant that he is not is abhorrent.
But I'm saying we need to counter that.
Not affirmatively, but by letting your dad keep being who he is and keep exposing his real, unthreatening self.
He's not a threatening guy.
All he wants to do is restore prosperity and preserve the United States, protect the United States.
We're good.
He's protecting, he's doing his best to stand in the breach for the values we all share, for the country we love.
And he's not the ogre they're depicting him as.
As long as they've depicted him as the racist that they have, we're gonna have trouble.
And maybe I'm just too idealistic, but I think- No, I think you're right.
I mean, listen, I've seen it myself.
I've opened, you know, now multiple sort of hate mail, white powder envelopes at my house.
Uh, with that, you know, the party of, you know, tolerance, not so tolerant, uh, the depiction of my father, you know, you said it, oh my God, he used the word bloodbath.
It's like, I used the word bloodbath the other day when, you know, when a hockey game was 1-5-1.
Like that, that's a bloodbath.
It's not, it's, it's literally common vernacular.
He's using it to sow violence.
You know, I'd like to get your opinion on this, because to me, there's no question that it was the media, the gaslighting of the American citizen, especially the Democrats, the lies about my father.
He's a Nazi.
He's literally worse than Hitler.
Literally worse, according to, you know, everyone on CNN for five years.
Of course that led to violence.
Of course that led to an assassination attempt.
You know, magically a 20 year old kid with no social media platform decides to shoot the president.
Like, that didn't happen in a vacuum.
That didn't happen by accident.
I mean, I could see a lot of people, you know,
A lot of sane people say, you know, hey, well, if I had the chance to go back and literally kill Hitler, like before he did the unspeakable things that he did, like, I have a moral obligation to do that, don't I?
Yeah.
Of course they caused that, but no one's learned from that.
No one cares.
There's been no accountability.
There's been no even acknowledgement that, of course, they did that.
And again, that all of the things that they've been gaslighting the American public with for the last decade have actually just been all lies.
It's not like there's been any truth to it.
The reality is, I don't think anyone could, with a straight face, say that they're better off now than they were four years ago under Trump.
It's almost an impossibility.
But it's even worse than that.
It's not just that they did what they did to your dad.
Demonized him to the point where a guy tried to assassinate him.
And I do believe there's a causal relationship there.
I do think that's why.
That's the primary reason why.
They demonized him to that point.
But don't forget the left.
That's been their excuse to suppress and censor speech.
That it could lead to violence.
And yet that's what they're doing.
Exactly.
So they can just lie, not censor the lies, and let it lead to violence.
That's OK because it's coming from them and in their minds.
But I guess in their minds, the means justify the ends.
It's OK.
I mean, I hear them for years.
You know, we're fascists.
I'm like, wait, you mean we're fascists for wanting freedom?
Like, we're not censoring people.
We're not throwing them off social media platforms.
We're certainly not jailing our political opposition or shooting at them.
We're not doing those things and yet the people screaming most about fascism...
I mean, they're acting kind of like the brownshirts back in the day.
I mean, it doesn't seem like there's much light between, you know, the fascists of the, let's call it, you know, the late 30s in Germany and today's left.
It's, you know, it sort of feels like they're one in the same.
Like, they keep using that word fascism, but it's as though they don't even know what it means because the irony that their behavior exemplifies that of the fascists shouldn't be lost on anyone.
I mean, it's insane.
You said there's not a lot of light.
They're in any light.
This is what they are.
They're fascists and communists at the same time.
And I know these pseudo-intellectuals.
You don't know the difference between fascism and communism.
No, no.
Look at Bo.
They're autocrats.
They don't believe in liberty.
They're godless people.
Well, anyway.
I have another Biden, anyway.
So I want to make a connection with you on one thing, and it kind of relates to the point you made a minute ago.
Donald Trump, the reason I can relate to him a little bit on a first-hand level is, Rush kind of preceded him.
As the tip of the spear.
Rush took their crap for 30 years because he had the guts to stand up.
He was called a racist.
We weren't raised to be racist.
That's the most ridiculous thing I've ever seen.
He's a nice guy.
If you listen to him on the radio, he was the more, he was courteous to people.
He had a cutting edge sense of humor and all that stuff.
And yeah, after 15 hours a week for 35 years, he's going to say some offensive things.
Sue me.
But he's genuinely a great guy, and he resonated with his audience.
I can tell you this, Don, after he died.
I've probably gotten 100,000.
I bet you.
Well, maybe that's a Trump exaggeration.
Okay, so 50,000.
You know, we're all hyperbole people.
But I mean, I'm not even sure it's an exaggeration of people who've expressed their love for Rush, and they feel like he's part of their family, and therefore I'm, by derivation, part of their family.
You can't believe the love.
Oh, there's a lot of hate, but I block a lot of those people.
My point is, Rush, early on, saw something in your dad, and he said it a million times, and I think that's why he gravitated toward him so early.
He could relate to him because
Your dad has a bond with his supporters that is unbreakable.
The only way he could break it is if he voluntarily broke it.
That's what Rush used to say.
And Rush had that same bond with his audience, and I've seen it.
And there's something unique and special about that.
And that's one of the main reasons nobody, there were some good opponents he had in the primary, they didn't stand a chance.
And that didn't mean they're bad.
Some of them are great.
But there's no way they had a chance because he has a family of supporters among tens of millions.
And we believe that he's going to do what he says he's going to do.
And not in every case, but more than any politician I've seen.
Yeah, no, and you're 100% right about Rush.
I mean, I saw that.
I mean, I know there were a bunch of events that Rush did with my father, and the amount of people that reached out to me that just wanted to get there with me so that they could have a chance to meet, you know, their hero, Rush Limbaugh.
So my dad's right there.
He's like, no, I met your dad.
It's fine.
I gotta go meet Rush.
So, no, they had a similar connection, and they spoke a similar way, which is sort of a, you know, tough but fair.
You may not always like it, but it's sort of hard to argue with it.
I liken my father, some of the policies, some of his commentary.
In life, sometimes you always needed the disciplinarian parent to kind of kick you in the ass and get you back on track.
And maybe it wasn't nice, maybe it hurt your feelings a little bit, but in the end, it was like, oh no, we needed that.
We needed that boot in the ass, you know, to get back on the right track.
And I think they both sort of spoke that way, which was they can be compassionate.
I think, you know, I will say perhaps one of my father's biggest political liabilities is he's not willing to actually pander with empathy, which he actually has, because there's a reason that people have worked for him for
Four decades.
So he has that thing, but he thinks it's hard to then go negotiate with Kim Jong-un or whatever it may be if he's being overly friendly on TV.
It's an old school mentality, but he has those things.
But he's also willing to have those hard conversations that he's not just going to pander to you.
He's going to tell you the truth.
You may not like it, but in the end, he's usually probably right.
You know, ironically, something that Elon Musk conversation revealed about your dad's authenticity.
He's sitting there, he's been criticized for becoming friends with these dictators, Putin and Kim Jong Un, and oh yeah, so he's obviously in bed with them.
He knows he's been accused of that, and yet he's willing to say it right to our faces and say, but that doesn't keep me from holding them accountable.
Correct.
And so that shows that he's real.
He can't even help it.
People say, well, censor himself.
He can't help it.
He's just real.
No, David, that one, and I know my dad, right?
He's a deal guy, right?
So, you know, when he's like, you know, I remember, I guess it was, what was it?
Helsinki or whatever.
They're like, oh my God, Trump didn't call Putin a piece of shit on the world stage in front of millions of TV cameras.
He had the opportunity and he said,
We had a great conversation.
We respect each other.
How dare he?
It's like, you know, guess what, guys?
Like, you can do that.
You can ridicule him.
The morons in our press that wouldn't know the first thing about, you know, actual, you know, statesmanship or making a deal or like that understanding, you know, they'd happily blow it up on a world stage.
They'd get all the credit in the world.
And yet, when something actually goes wrong,
When the proverbial shit hits the fan, you have to be able to make that phone call.
And if you're just the guy that's going to lie for the quick little soundbite, for the little blurb, for the Trump dunks on Putin on world stage,
That's gone.
That access is cut off.
So instead he says, hey, I respect the guy.
It doesn't mean he doesn't understand that the guy's got dictatorial tendencies.
It doesn't mean he thinks he's a good guy.
He understands him.
And he knows it serves him no purpose to crap on him on a world stage, because when things do ultimately go wrong, as they have in the last few years, we see that right now,
That line of communication is severed forever, so instead, he does the right thing, the hard thing to do, which is to get crapped on by his own people, but to get crapped on by the world, to be crapped on by the press, to make sure that for the remaining, whatever it was, two years, year and a half of his term, that lifeline, if things ever went really wrong, was ready and available.
And that's
Magnanimous.
That's being an actual leader, you know, kowtowing to, you know, a bunch of low IQ morons in the press who just, you know, at this point they're, you know, propagandists for the regime, incapable of, you know, original thought.
Just giving them what they want, that does no one any good whatsoever.
But there's a consequence to not doing that.
And he was willing to face those consequences.
He was willing to take that ridicule and the hate and the this to make sure he was doing what was right for the American people.
And I think that's the ultimate form of statesmanship.
It is, and I can relate to this too in a way, because some of what I do for a living is negotiate contracts, and some clients want you to be a hard-ass.
They think that this posturing is what equals good negotiation, and I think what equals good negotiation is two things.
One, having a level of discernment where you can, an insight where you can read what the other side's thinking, and that comes with being a real person like your dad is, and the second thing is
Building up their trust in you by being authentic.
And you can be friendly and you should be friendly.
I'm friendly with all the lawyers I deal with.
If I weren't friendly, I wouldn't even get, they would hurt my clients despite me.
So I'm making your point on a firsthand level, not about me, but just because I can understand that.
Saying you like the other side, the representative of the other side, doesn't mean you'll sell your client out.
Quite the opposite.
It's an avenue to getting what's best for your client or your country.
To change tracks a little bit, David, you've mentioned God and godlessness a few times in this talk.
I guess you've written several books obviously recently on Christianity and faith.
How do politics and faith, how do they intersect with you?
I know my father's been attacked again by the media for having
You know, strong evangelical support because they say, well, how could, you know, the brash billionaire from New York, how could he resonate or connect with evangelicals?
But, you know, in places like Missouri and Iowa and stuff, why do you think he's able to connect so well with those guys?
And I get it.
You know, in 16, if you were an evangelical and you were skeptical of Trump, I would totally understand it, actually.
I'm sort of like, you know, I get it.
And yet today,
That connection, I imagine, is even stronger.
What do you think that is?
I evolved myself on your dad and my opinion of him.
I didn't think, when he first came out, I thought he would be more of a New York liberal and that he really wasn't that much into politics and all that, although I'd heard him speak about politics before.
I think what happened to him, and I could be wrong and you don't have to confirm it or not, but I think that once he got out of his business mode and started campaigning and interacting with people, he realized that the New York liberals weren't the good guys.
I'm not sure he thought they were in the first place, but he certainly learned early on in his campaigning
That the conservative Christians were actually the good guys.
He may not have been exposed to them that much, and they were loyal, and they cared about things, and they cared about the country, and he'd been, I think, misled by some of this indoctrination about liberalism before.
I could be wrong, but my point is, if he wasn't a conservative before, as strong a conservative as he is now, he became one, and it was authentic.
It's no faking to get votes.
He actually, I think, transformed into
And it had a transformation in terms of his feelings for people and his belief in people in different sides.
But I think part of it, though, is America, to your question, America is founded on Christian principles.
I don't care what the naysayers, the secular humanists say, it was.
And we have to promote, vigorously promote Christian values and religious liberty to restore the liberties we have, the ordered liberty we have in America.
Evangelical Christians realize that.
They realize that Donald Trump supports the values.
Even if they don't think, even if some of them believe he did some of those terrible things he's accused of, they believe he authentically supports evangelical values and the values that, the things that have made America the greatest nation in the history of the world, and they can sense that he's real.
I keep going back to the authenticity.
I wrote a book
Early on, like 2004-2005, called Persecution, about how the left, this is 2004-2005, was going after Christianity and demonizing Christians and going after our religious liberty.
By the way, this is interesting, J.D.
Vance cited my book.
He said he read that book in his Hillbilly Elegy.
That's in there.
I don't know if it was a negative
I love the book.
I read it at the time and I was like, I don't remember that, but I'll have to go check it out.
I'll talk to him.
I'm so proud of that.
I got a cite by the upcoming VP.
So even if it was not support, I think it was, but I don't know.
But anyway, they're trying to outlaw
Christian speech right now.
Don't think it's just happening in Britain.
No, of course not.
Or Canada.
They're doing it today.
They're jailing people for praying at abortion clinics.
This is a horrifying time we're living in.
Donald Trump, again, supports religious liberty.
By the way, not just for Christians.
For all faiths.
Evangelicals support him because he's advocating the policies they believe in.
It's that simple.
And by the way, I want to make a point here.
The left tries to say that if Christians allow their worldview to inform their policies, they're somehow theocrats.
No, I don't want religious liberty.
I don't want the government to impose our faith on anybody else.
By the way, the left does.
They want to impose their secular humanist values on us by force.
And they do have a religion.
It's a godless religion.
Environmentalism and the rest of it.
They're all eaten up.
Donald Trump stands against these institutions that are going after all of us and our values.
Secular humanism is now dominant in our culture because they've systematically taken over our education system, Hollywood, the media, big tech.
Trump, really, I'm not saying he's some kind of savior or hero, but we need a leader that'll stand up, unafraid, to your term again, unapologetically, against those things and for the things we believe in.
If we don't fight, we're done.
We are done if we don't fight, and he's the guy that's going.
And by the way, he promised to stand up against them, and he's one of the few presidents that's ever done what he said he was going to do on so many issues like Israel and on and on.
Yeah, you don't have to believe him.
He actually did it.
And that's what's sort of unique.
You have one administration that you've already lived under, and you had another administration that you've already lived under, and they're both running again.
So Kamala Harris is flip-flopping on all of her policies.
So which one are you actually going to get?
Does anyone actually think
You know, when she's praising biodynamics and she's praising everything, does anyone think she's going to actually change and do the opposite of everything that she's done and she's taken credit for for the last few years?
I don't think so.
But your point's an interesting one, because, you know, prior to COVID, I used to think, you know, America and the UK and Ireland and Australia and Canada and New Zealand, like, we're all sort of, you know, freedom countries.
And, you know, it's still
You know, and yet I'm looking at people in the UK now, you know, getting two-year jail sentences for misgendering someone.
I saw that crazy thing, you know, a week or two ago from, you know, the head of the, you know, London, you know, or UK, you know, law enforcement.
They're going to try to extradite Americans who violate their, you know, and I don't mean hate speech.
I mean, like,
Common social media diatribe.
I'm seeing, you know, people in England, you know, cops breaking into people's homes for a Facebook post because, well, you know, I said I don't like these roving migrant gangs beating the shit out of the people in my hometown.
I think it's terrible.
You know, those people go to jail for two years and the people who are actually doing the beating in the streets and curb stomping people, well, you know, they're immune from anything because, you know, God forbid we offend them.
It's scary because if we don't think we're going there as a country in America, we have not been paying attention, David.
And that's really scary because it's like we're not just allowing it to happen, but we seem to be welcoming our own demise, or at least the demise of everything we believed in as a country, our liberties, our freedoms, our constitution, and the future of our children.
Not just welcoming it, orchestrating it.
That's what's happening at the border.
They're bringing in foreign criminals, terrorists, fentanyl, killing people and knowing it's happening, and then flying people over who have nothing.
But hey, how many Chinese nationals who probably work for the CCP are there in this country now?
A lot.
Yeah, and you think they mean us good?
Are you kidding me?
And right in front of our eyes, they're doing all these things.
They're burning down cities.
Walt got nominated, or is about to get nominated as VP, and he let his city burn, cities burn.
That's unthinkable.
And so it's here.
It's happening.
Our cities are lawless and you can't, we're letting people out, no bail.
The homeless are going crazy.
Gavin Newsom now finally comes around and acts like he's had an epiphany.
They're all liars.
They're all destructive.
I just, I cannot believe what they're doing to this country.
And people know it.
And I don't know.
I don't want to be smug about this or stupid.
No, but you're right.
It's obvious.
I mean, listen, first of all, you're talking about, you are a lawyer.
I mean, you come from a family of lawyers.
I think your grandfather, I think, practiced law until he was over 100 years old.
Is that right?
Yeah.
Yes, correct.
Okay, so as a lawyer, can our legal system even recover from the endless abuses we've seen in the courtroom?
You know, when you have prosecutors literally just openly admitting that they're prosecuting for political purposes.
You've seen, you know, I'm not just talking about the stuff, you know, they've done to my family and my father where, you know, we get a half a billion dollar fine for paying back a loan on time with interest and the alleged victim is testifying on our behalf.
How do you recover from that?
Because I feel like it's sort of like democracy.
It's sort of like election integrity.
A big part of the whole thing is that people actually have to believe
That they have a chance.
That it's fair.
And I don't think the left even cares anymore that people have any faith in the systems or the institutions themselves.
And so, you know, as a lawyer, what do you make of this?
Because there comes a point where, you know, why obey the law if it's going to only be enforced one way?
It's a great question.
Your dad has done two things.
One is he stood up.
He stood up to their abuses of the judicial system against him.
The other thing he's done is, unlike anyone else, he has appointed a sufficient number of originalist justices
Who actually reversed a 50-year precedent, albeit how terrible it was, Roe v. Wade, in the Dobbs case.
I never thought that would get reversed.
And boy, we're seeing the left going absolutely crazy as a result of the ballot.
But he's right.
The prerogative has now been restored to the states.
That's what everybody wanted, other than the left.
They wanted to mandate the legality of abortion nationally, and that's what they tried to do judicially.
Our system
Depends on a vigorous, impartial judicial branch.
We have to be, blind justice has to be the case.
The left views the third branch as another political branch to legislate laws they can't get done through democratically elected branches of government.
The executive and the
Legislative.
So they get justices to contort the Constitution to allow them to implement policies that they can't get voted on and enacted by the people.
So that's what they do.
The judiciary is another legislative body for this.
There's no magic solutions in response to your question.
But we have to keep appointing originalist justices and judges who believe in the rule of law, who believe in the Constitution as written, who believe in its original meaning, original intent.
And your dad has been unapologetic in doing that.
And we also have to have a president, a chief executive, who will send a signal to the courts and to the executive branch
We're good to go.
Well, they're buying a vote temporarily.
It got overturned.
The people owe their money, but they bought the vote already in the meantime.
So it's a short-term fix.
And again, with the media stacked against us, we're not just up against the Democrat machine, David, but also the media machine.
I think, honestly, your brother Rush was probably the best voice and warrior against them for
Arguably decades.
I think you recently tweeted that Rush was the most important figure in the last 40 years to stand up against this liberal insanity.
He was honestly the tip of the spear.
If you have any ideas, the abuse he endured for America, and I know that Rush would appreciate Elon Musk.
For standing in the breach.
I mean, you know, talk about that a little bit because there is sort of an interesting new alliance on the right standing up against censorship.
I mean, Elon Musk himself said that he's like, I'm not.
I was probably a moderate liberal most of my life, a moderate Democrat.
And yet I see where the party is going.
He's the guy that's figured it out.
Now, I think he's probably one of the great minds.
You know, he's the Einstein of our era.
Um, but he's figuring it out.
Hopefully others will follow and they'll get it because he understands where this is all going.
Yeah, and I totally agree with that, and I've written about that, as you said, I've tweeted about it, that Rush did, for 30-some-odd years, say what he believed, and he took unbelievable heat from the media, and they lied!
Media matters, they lied about him, and everybody lied, had all these things demonizing him, and he never quit.
He never quit, and it's so, again, analogous to what your dad has done.
Who could have, including myself, who would not have folded?
Who would not have caved after being prosecuted criminally by all these who can put you literally in jail?
They're still going to try to do that.
And he never backed down and he continues to fight.
I don't know.
He's got a constitution.
I can't believe it.
Rush never did either.
Rush never backed down.
But we now see a
A transformation, a radical transformation in the media landscape.
Cable TV is on the way out.
Terrestrial radio is on the way out.
We've got a big splintering.
We've got all these podcasts.
We've got various other outlets, social media, Twitter, Facebook, Instagram.
And so there's so many people out there trying to get the message out.
But I think one thing that concerns me, I think, you know, the free press is a disinfectant.
You put a light on falsehood and on the truth, and people will go for the truth.
And that's why the left wants to suppress the truth, because they know if the truth comes out, specifically about communist policies contrasted with your dad's, we'll win in a landslide.
So they've got to suppress the truth.
They've got to manipulate and censor using big tech.
And Google search engines?
Oh yeah.
Google's the worst offender.
Wikipedia.
I mean, Google's by far the worst offender, but a lot of the social media platforms are a disaster.
So maybe that's an interesting question, right?
Obviously, you know, Rush sort of brought talk radio, made it a relevant force out there.
Can platforms like X, Rumble, Truth Social, can they be disruptive in the same way that, say, talk radio was in the 90s?
Uh, and where, you know, and be the place where conservative media is getting it right and where enough people are tuning in to actually move the needle.
Uh, and where do you think, if not, or if we're maybe partially there, uh, where's there work to be done, uh, to be able to get out that same way?
I mean, talk radio was dominated by conservatives.
It really, it changed a lot of the landscape.
You didn't have traditional media, but you were able to do things there.
Uh, what do you think about that, David?
I mean, as someone who was just close to it from the beginning.
I do think that's happening with Social Media X, Truth Social, the rest, where they're able in real time to call BS on the media's fact-checking, which of course means just bias implementation.
And instantly report the news, and we see it in real time.
And then I keep, I harken back to this, but it's so important that Elon was able to bring a conversation with your dad to millions upon, maybe hundreds of millions of viewers after the tape, the video is played.
And that's got to be, you're able to reach more people through that than you are through the traditional means of media.
So I think that's a big thing.
But I think one thing in terms of what we have to look out for, and you may or may not agree with this, as being along my brother's side for all those years, all those decades, and watching what he did to pioneer all this and literally create a new genre, conservative talk radio, which has been instrumental in
In so much of preserving so much of America's values and even giving rise to the possibility that somebody like your dad could do what he's done for us.
But I think there's a danger in egotism on our side.
I see a lot of these people, a lot of conservative stars,
Yeah.
He's in this to make a profit.
By that, he was just saying.
He's not trying to fool anybody.
He wants to make money.
I think that's full disclosure, actually.
That's quite honest.
Yeah, but he didn't say that he would therefore say anything that he didn't believe.
He always said what he believed in, and I'm so annoyed when people don't know that.
He totally said what he believed in, except when he was doing parody or being sarcastic.
Yeah.
And I think that's exactly the same way with your dad.
But some of these people, I hate the term grifters, but we do have some grifters.
And to your point, I think Rush did great because regardless of what he was saying, he was authentic.
Authenticity is everything.
And whether you like what my father's saying or not, you're like, okay, he believes what he's saying.
That's the same guy.
It doesn't matter if it's, you know, behind the closed doors, it doesn't matter if it's, you know, they got him on a hot mic.
It's like, eh, he'd probably say that anyway.
And I think that's so critical.
And to the point of annoying people, because they think he's saying things that are going to hurt him.
Well, maybe a little bit.
Some things he says hurts him, but it proves that he's authentic, because he knows it might hurt him, but he's going to be who he is.
And hearkening back to an earlier question, too, to kind of dovetail this, you asked about the evangelicals supporting your dad.
I think most evangelicals intuit
That what is going on is spiritual warfare in this country.
The level of evil is so extreme now.
That it cannot be anything other than spiritual level, almost demonic, where you've got people not just reluctantly saying, I want abortion in these three extreme circumstances or these exceptions, but we're glorifying the murder of babies.
We're glorifying it, and we create anything we can do to destroy
The truth of the Bible, God created man and woman.
He didn't create 70 genders, 200, 300,000 genders.
Anything they can do to undermine God's created order, they're doing it.
And I believe that is a conspiracy.
I think it's a satanic conspiracy.
And I think that regardless of what people think about Donald Trump and whether he does things that bother them, he is championing values.
Yeah.
Yeah. 100%.
Well, your dad's pushed it back.
He's pushing it back.
And if we don't stop it, honestly, if they're elected, we've got a $35 trillion debt.
We've got a military in decline.
We've got no borders.
I don't see how you salvage it.
I don't know.
And you're right about sort of, you know, demonic presence.
You don't have to look any further than, you know, half the stuff that comes out on TV these days or the opening and closing ceremonies of the Olympics.
I mean, they're not even hiding it anymore.
They're just right in your face about it.
And you know, again,
I don't think that gets better from here.
It's not like, OK, we allowed that to happen.
We're just it's going to get better.
No, they keep pushing that boundary.
They keep moving that ball forward.
And, you know, it's a death by a thousand cuts.
There's no stopping that unless we really put an end to it.
But one yes.
But one good thing about this, back to the ironies of our times, Satan profits by deceiving people as to who he is.
Just like you said, he's now come out into the open.
His
Proselytes have now come out in the open in the French Olympics and the rest of all the gender insanity in the lawlessness in the city that in people we see these videos going through and are allowing people to steal up to $1,000 before their rent.
Insane evil stuff and we gotta call it out.
But the fact that the left has exposed itself like I I didn't hope it would do, but I thought was inevitable when I wrote that the last book political book and rush has been predicting it forever.
The fact that they've exposed themselves, I think, is ironically causing the sleeping giant to wake up.
And I think you feel it.
When people wave these Trump signs, it's not because they idolize your dad.
See, that's where the people think we're an adult.
No!
He's our agent.
He's our leader to take back the country that we love.
That's what it is.
David, as a closing thought, I'd like to hear more about your thoughts simply on the 2024 race.
What do you think the most effective messages and strategies are there?
What are the things we've got to keep going on?
What are the things perhaps we're not doing?
What advice would you give to my father to ultimately deliver a victory in November?
Well, I disagree with these people who say you can't walk and chew gum at the same time, and that when he goes after people, that he's getting off message.
If you listen to his speech, or if you listen to his conversation with Elon Musk, that was policy-rich.
And he remembered his own record, and he talked about it prospectively.
The one thing he shouldn't do too much of is talk too much about 2020 anymore.
We should look forward, because everybody that needs to know now knows about it.
We want to be forward-looking.
I don't blame him.
He's going to be pissed until he dies about how screwed we were.
I agree with you, but you can't teach an old dog new tricks.
You've got to take the good and the bad with Trump, but he's the guy that can also fix it.
Fruitless to ask me what, but I wish you would do a little less of that, except to the extent to alert us to implement these things, safeguards against it happening in 2024.
So we, I know Laura's doing a great job at the RNC and doing what she's doing.
But we have to, all of us out here are scared to death that this election can be stolen.
Now, I know a lot of people think it's outrageous to even talk about a stolen election.
I believe, I believe it was stolen.
I don't know that you can prove it ever legally.
You know how you can prove it though, David?
You can prove it by, again, plausibility.
Does anyone believe
That Joe Biden miraculously outperformed Barack Obama in 08, like before the 12th disaster, like you know, like in 08.
In Atlanta, Milwaukee, Philadelphia, Detroit, and lost all the major bellwethers, I guess other than one.
18 of 19 bellwethers he lost.
Like, no one believes that that's real, right?
Like, no, like, you can't.
It literally defies the laws of probability.
It defies the laws of statistics.
I mean, it's literally, it's impossible.
And yet, you know, you know, the media, it's a convenient, you know, it's what they want, so they'll tell you that it is, and they'll tell you it's the safest and securest election in history.
They can't give you a reason why.
Like, why?
You've mailed millions of ballots to unknown addresses.
So much of that has proven to be false, but it's the safest and securest.
You know, to your point earlier, the media, the DNC sends that out, that becomes the talking point, everyone runs with it, doesn't mean there's any truth to it, they just say it.
And, you know, you say it enough, and people who aren't paying attention, and people who get a couple minutes of news a day, because they're busy trying to feed their families, understandably, oh well, I guess there must be something to it, but like, there's no way, it's impossible.
Well, and there's some things that are undeniable, no matter who you are.
They manipulated big tech.
I mean, big tech manipulated things.
We know what they did to censor conservative thought and conservative speech and conservative people and your dad.
They changed laws unconstitutionally to allow ballot harvesting.
They continue to do it today in front of our faces.
They're creating new citizens.
Have you read the latest where they're expediting citizenship for people?
Of course they are.
As long as they're dependent.
Now, if someone can bring value and, you know, or came from, you know, a communist country like, you know, Cuba or Venezuela, you know, those people don't get expedited citizenship because they won't vote for what they escape from.
But, you know, if you come here and you're going to be a permanent, you know, government dependent, you'll vote Democrat.
And so they'll make sure that those are expedited and they get to the front of the line and you get to pay for them and you have the privilege of paying for yourself, your children, and theirs.
It's a wonderful privilege.
Anybody against voter ID is not for election integrity.
That's the first thing you need.
Of course they have the mindset they're going to cheat.
They have a mindset that they'll do anything they can to break the laws to get their end result.
But I want to ask you this, and you obviously don't want to reveal any confidential stuff,
I see this stuff on Twitter.
These people wringing their hands about, we don't have a ground game.
We don't have a good ground game.
We're not doing enough.
We don't have ad buys in these states.
You know, these marginal states where we need to have ad buys better than the Democrats.
Your dad is no longer talking.
I don't believe it.
I believe he's doing what he's doing.
I can explain a lot of that.
Because of some of the rules changes, we're working with other groups that are picking up some of that slack that would have normally come from the RNC.
So there are people doing it.
They are funded.
They are doing it.
The people who are actually making the most noise about that, frankly, are back to the grifters.
They're the grifters on the conservative side that don't have a part of this campaign.
And so what they're doing, they're either not good, they've either proven to be leakers or disloyal or whatever it may be.
But they're the people that want to profit off of this.
These are the people that, you know, take 90 cents of an ad buy and 10 cents actually goes to the cause.
So those are the people making a lot of noise.
They want to sow discord because they're either, you know, they either want a role or they want to be able to continue their grift.
So I see where it's coming from because, you know, I'm just intimately involved in all of these things.
So I just want to show, like, this is by far, as far as I'm concerned, and I was there probably more than anyone in 16,
As much as anyone in 20.
And now, I mean, I think as far as I'm concerned, this is by far the best overall operation.
It's just being done differently because you're able to do it differently.
We have those connections.
We have it figured out.
You know, in 16, I used to joke, you know, when they were like, well, you colluded with Russia while running.
I colluded.
Like, we couldn't collude to order a cheeseburger because we didn't know what the hell was going on.
Like, we were just like, I was like, I don't know.
Give me a mic.
I got a good line of shit.
I'll talk for a little while.
Like, I don't know what to do.
And people got it.
So, you know, I think it's noise.
I think it's all nonsense.
I think it's caused by sort of a lot of those people, the rhinos that we would not want to actually be a part of this movement anyway.
They're being sidelined.
They would love the America First movement to die because they want to go back to the old ways because that's the only place that they can kind of perpetuate their grift.
And so I see that.
Now, of course, it gets a lot of undue coverage because the media, their lackeys, big tech, they're more than happy to cover, you know, fake discord and, you know, it's a crisis.
They're more than happy to cover that as a negative way of, you know, effectively hurting Trump.
I don't, there's, as far as I'm concerned, there's nothing to it.
Does that mean everything's perfect?
No, nothing's ever perfect.
It's a campaign.
It's a, it's a total shit show.
That's how campaigns work.
But the reality is, as far as I'm concerned, the operation now, you know, the overall ground game.
Again, maybe not what you see from that, but the other people that have stepped into various roles, doing things in those various swing states.
Like, it is out there, it is getting done, as far as I'm concerned, and it's getting done at a level that is far greater than anything I'd seen in the prior two presidential election cycles that I've been a part of.
That's reassuring.
I appreciate you filling us in on that.
There's one thing, I think, in answer to your question,
The most common sense thing we can do, and it's so common sense it goes without saying, is
Let your dad be himself and let him be seen like he was of the elements more and more and during the debate.
Yeah.
And then expose Kamala for who she is and who Biden is and make her own who she is.
And there are several ways to do that.
One will be the debate.
And another is to flush out the media, which is protecting her.
This media might pretend to be irritated that she won't go.
All they would have to do is demand she come out and ridicule her for being absent.
And she would have to come out.
We've been trying.
It's not working because they're giving her the air cover.
But I agree with you.
I agree with you totally, David.
I'm talking about all of us.
We can't.
We've got to shame a bit.
But run the videos of Kamala.
They are devastating.
And so the more we can expose that, the better.
Because she is who she is.
She's our best campaigner.
Well, David, thank you so much for doing this.
That was actually a great conversation.
I really enjoyed it.
We should certainly do this again in a couple of weeks, because I'm sure there will be no shortage of new material.
So I look forward to it.
Thank you for your time, guys.
Check out David Limbaugh on social, just his name.
Great insight into so much.
David, really appreciate it.
And we look forward to seeing you soon.
It's a great honor.
Thanks for having me.
Enjoy.
Be well.
