Time Text
And we're back on the fastest three hours in media, Rush Limbaugh and the EIB Network, the Limboy Institute for Advanced Conservative Studies.
Telephone number 800 282882 and the email address Lrushbow at EIB net.com.
Ladies and gentlemen, the uh uh the uh the attacks on me continue, but remember now the uh the the the these are attacks on all of you.
Uh this this whole business is an attack on all of conservatism.
But they are still talking about this at ESPN uh show called First Take.
They have a former player who is an analyst on the network now, Marcellus Wiley, who I've never met, and I've never spoken to.
And he was asked this morning for his reaction uh to uh my being uh removed from the potential ownership group of the Rams.
Datafield called Audible.
We're going to pass Limbaugh on you and your racist comments, your divisive comments, comments to isolate players.
70% of this league is African American.
This is racist radio that doesn't need any more attention.
This doesn't need to be on prime time on TV in the owner's box like he wants it.
Marcellus Wiley at ESPN, ESPN two, you are all racist.
They were all racist, racist radio.
Marcellus Wiley.
Don't even remember him, and I'm a football fan.
Yeah.
Some of the some that's right, some of the fan some of the fans that pay his salary are racist.
Yeah, but I'm sure a lot of people that listen to this radio show watch ESPN too.
A bunch of racists are watching ESPN too, according to Marcellus Riley.
Wiley, Marcellus Wiley.
So it's an attack on the uh on the audience, ladies and gentlemen.
The uh, let's see, what was it?
Uh oh, grab sound by 15.
This is interesting.
I mentioned earlier today that Harry Reid had let slip that the health care bill is actually going to cost two trillion dollars.
And here is how it happened.
This was on the Senate floor yesterday in Washington.
The senior center from New Hampshire.
He talked about CBO saying there could be $54 billion saved each year if we put caps on medical malpractice and put some restrictions.
Tort reform.
$54 billion.
Sounds like a lot of money, doesn't it, Mr. President?
The answer is yes.
But remember, we're talking about two trillion dollars, $54 billion compared to two trillion dollars.
You can do the math, we can all do the math.
It's a very small percent.
This is how he's going about saying no tort reform.
No, it's $54 billion.
I mean, we wouldn't even notice it.
Uh it's a rounding error.
Well, we're not gonna have Tory for a two trillion dollar bill, Mr. Tort $54 billion for no, no, no, no.
No, I'm not gonna do it.
I mean, these guys are just they're but there you have it.
I mean, the the real point of that is two trillion dollars.
Have you heard that said anywhere in any CBO report of the House bill or of the Senate bills or these five pieces of paper that are running around?
In fact, from uh Cybercast News Service, the Senate Finance Committee chaired by Max Baucus claimed that it posted the full text of its health care reform bill, America's Healthy Future Act, on its website.
But when users clicked the link to read the proposed law, they could only access a 259-page document that included summaries of both current law and the proposed legislation, or what some senators call the plain English version of the bill, the actual legislative language of the bill.
The words that would become the law of the land if the bill were enacted, is not available to the public, and it still apparently has not even been written.
A giant scam took place in the Senate Finance Committee.
There is no bill.
The CBO scored a draft estimate.
There is no legislative bill yet.
And here they're talking about merging this bill with something on the Senate floor.
The original plan, I told you this three weeks ago, folks.
The original plan was to take this finance committee bill and merge it with the uh bill that came out of the uh Harkin Committee, and then take that right over to the House and have it rubber stamp, no conference committee, and then sent on to Obama to sign.
Stenny Hoyer said uh, I think sometime last night or yesterday, might have been this morning.
Stanny Hoyer in the House said, Whoa, wait a minute.
From what we're seeing here, there's a whole lot of differences in that Senate bill and our bill, and I I do not think that there's not going to be a conference report on the meaning, he says I the idea to just sail that thing through here without uh us having a hand in it ain't gonna fly.
So he said, Yeah, we're gonna have to conference this.
Which is going to slow the whole thing down even more, and it will bring some of the process into daylight.
They'll try to hide most of it, but some of what's being negotiated in the conference will come out.
Now let's go back to um to Dingy Harry in uh in in Washington at a press conference.
He wagged his finger at the Republicans.
I appeal to the Republicans in the Senate.
Come join us.
We want health care reform.
We want to do it with you.
We're going to do it with them or without them.
You don't need them, Senator.
You just can't get 60 of your own people.
I'll tell you what, you don't know it, folks, but the left wing radical websites are livid at Harry Reed and think he's chickening out.
He keeps uh he keeps talking about needing the Republicans or doing it with the Republicans and threatening to do it without the Republicans, and they know that he doesn't need any Republicans.
He doesn't need them.
Especially if they go the reconciliation route, they don't need anything but 51 votes.
So they want to continue to try to portray the Republicans.
I mean I can't tell you the last time I heard a Republican say anything about this on television.
Now I'm not bad watching a lot of TV, but well, Olympia is super but but I mean, yeah, but that was after the vote.
I mean, I I I don't I don't I my point is I don't hear Republicans uh with any consistency opposing the thing if they're saying it, it's not getting covered.
All I hear is Democrats complaining that the Republicans are standing in the way in the Senate.
And I'm hearing the same thing in the House.
Uh, these Republicans are not wanting to partner with us here in bipartisanship and so forth.
They ought not.
There's um there's no reason for it.
Well, by the way, uh I mentioned earlier the insurance companies are the new villains uh in a long list of villains the Democrats have created in order to pass various legislation.
Yesterday, Dingy Harry at his press conference.
Just this week, the insurance lobby released a dishonest report on health care costs.
The consumer union and many others quickly discredited this report as it deserved to be discredited.
Who should be trusted on this issue?
On what's in the best interests of consumers?
The insurance industry, or an organization like Consumers Union that's been protecting consumers since 1936.
That's a pretty clear, overwhelming vote for the consumers union.
Now, this is the report that the and and by the way, Price Waterhouse did this.
Price Waterhouse was commissioned to do this, and and so far their reputation hasn't been a sale, but that's right around the corner.
Uh and the fact is they came up with, hey, you know, this this bill is gonna add four thousand dollars to the average premium cost, the family of four over whatever next period of years down the road.
Oh, no, well, if it's a false report.
Dingy Harry, what's false and illegitimate and corrupt and has no representative to the truth or representation of the truth is you and your Senate finance committee bill and everything else that you're doing in the Senate.
What you're engaging in is a is a corrupt fraud scam on the American people with virtually every bit of legislation he's coming up with.
And there are people trying to hold these people accountable.
There are people trying to get the truth out.
And look at them.
Every one that pops up, the Democrats run out with some kind of weapon to try to destroy them and clear the playing field.
And that's where we are.
No greater illustration of liberty versus tyranny than what is happening in just the past nine months since President Obama was immaculated.
Quick time out.
We'll be right back, folks.
And we go back to the phones.
I uh appreciate everybody's patience today uh being on hold for quite a while.
Flagler Beach, Florida.
This is Marie.
Great to have you on the EIB network.
Hi.
Hi, Rosh.
Um I was just listening and I it's funny that you should mention the NFL ticket.
Because I've had it like since the first year was offered what I guess about sixteen, seventeen years ago.
Well yesterday I mean emailed the NFL and I I heard how they were treating you I said this is it.
I will not subscribe to the NFL ticket anymore.
I'm 61.
I've been a fan of football forever.
You know this brings up an interesting point.
This Marcellus Wiley fool and all of these other race baiters that are discussing this keep talking about how 70% of the league is African American.
And as such somebody like me cannot possibly in any way shape manner or form be involved.
Seventy percent of the league is African American three things about this A, I know that.
B, the 70% African Americans make big books.
If I'm a racist, I want to get into that game?
Doesn't make sense.
The second thing is, who do these 70% African-American players think is paying their salaries?
Is every white person that attends a National Football League game or buys the NFL Sunday ticket like you do a racist?
What does that have to do?
What does it have to do with the fact that 70% of the league is African-American?
That's another one of these little statistics that they throw up there to make it look like no conservative can get anywhere to go.
near this league because 70% of the players are African American and that means 70% of the players are liberal.
Well I happen to personally know that that is not true.
But these people are just fools I I I I did s the um they keep saying tell me tell me what percentage of the fans buy this racist crap.
None that I mean you don't even think about the color of the skin when you're watching the game if you love the game and that's it.
I love the game.
Exactly precisely right it's these guys that have that on their mind.
Yeah I've been I've been a Bills fan so you know I must love football I'm still a fan well that's why you have to have the uh NFL Sunday ticket yeah I moved away forty years ago I had to have the ticket it was the best thing but it's over now do you uh you have the high definition version of it?
Yes.
Yeah it is great.
Oh yeah I gotta tell you the red zone I love that well that's gonna be that's gonna be tough for you to not subscribe anymore.
I know but I'm not doing it.
I'm not doing it.
That's it.
I've had it.
I mean I I can't believe you know it's funny the other day uh well actually it was a couple weeks ago my husband and I were talking and we're going something's wrong with the NFL it's just not the same not the same because we're getting more into college football.
I thought, you know, you're right.
There's something weird.
You know, Sunday nights I had to hold my nose to watch NBC football with those guys.
But anyway.
Wait a minute.
Wait a minute.
What guys?
Bob Costas.
Oh, yeah.
You know, give me a break.
But anyway.
Bob Costas is a very unhappy little diva.
I guess that's one way to put it.
He doesn't understand why everybody doesn't love him and respect him like they love and respect Obama.
I think you got that right.
Well, we could give him an earful, but we won't.
All right.
Look, I appreciate the call, Marie.
Thanks much.
Barney in Huntington Beach, California.
Welcome to the EIB Network.
Hello.
Hello, and it is an honor to speak to you, sir.
Thank you very much.
And you never have been in any way anti-black or anti-Semitic or anything else, unlike Reverend Sharpton.
It's quite the opposite.
Yeah.
I'm pro-American.
I know.
I'm pro-prosperity.
You stand up for the traditional, honorable, free United States of America.
Now, Reverend Sharpton, however, and you probably already have this information, but I have to say it.
He led a spirited attack on the Orthodox Jewish community in Crown Heights, New York.
I was living in New York at the time for about 30 years.
forty years.
And um it started off that well, it was an accident with a car, and all of this can easily be brought out.
The the I I don't remember the year.
Well, it had to be it had to be it had to be from 1998 to 1997, when they're because I was I lived there when that happened.
I remember the Crown Heights thing.
There was uh you two.
Yeah, there were two of them, and and uh the the Sharpton uh rounded up a posse went after a Jewish guy who was driving a car who that one member, one uh youthful ignorant lad uh stopped the uh vehicle, pulled a guy out, and it was a visiting uh Bible scholar from Australia.
I think his name was Yankel uh Rosenblower.
I remember the Yankle, I didn't remember the Rosenberg.
It might not be Rosenberg, but I do remember his Yankle.
So do I. Rosenbaum, Yankel Rosenbaum is a name.
Yes.
He was the Reginald Denny of his time.
Yes.
And I also uh remember Tulana Brawley, and we you know spend time on that one, but uh he's a creep.
And it's as far as the Reverend Jackson is concerned.
There was a book written, and I never got to read it, but it was it was shown to me where uh he listed all of the blackmailing he did.
Or most of it to collect funding.
We've got the story at Rushlembog.com.
It's in the New York Post, the shakedowns of all these corporations, the hiring of Al Sharpton as a consultant because he threatens boycotts or worse.
Absolutely right.
Like I said, these guys could not be held, these guys could not survive 30 minutes of the scrutiny that they hand out to me or anybody else that they're trying to take down.
They couldn't handle it, and they'll never get it because you know they're a chosen and annoyed.
Let me tell you the Democrat Party works, folks.
This is I've I've done this before, but uh and this I I told this story in explaining why they went after Clarence Thomas, who by the way, I now have I'm very honored, I have something in common with Justice Thomas.
I too have had my high-tech lynching.
Just as he had remembered the whole Anita thing that was all that was made up.
It was totally Trump, none of it was true.
Pewy Care on a Coke can, all that sort of stuff, all these witnesses that they've run.
Judge Hirschner, Judge Susan Hirchner, who looked to me like she had never had a bowel movement puffed up so much and her lips are puckered so much.
The reason they had to destroy Clarence Thomas, the Democrat Party is made up, as you now know, of a bunch of disparate coalitions.
And some of them are at war with each other, but they do have two things in common, regardless of differences.
One is they hate Republicans and conservatives, and two, they love government and being close to government and government power and government money.
The Democrat Party has to keep this coalition alive for votes.
Now, the role of the leaders of the black coalition, the Democrat Party, their only responsibility is to generate ninety percent of the vote for the Democrat presidential candidate every year.
That's the job that Sharpton and Jackson have.
And as long as they come through, as long as they keep that large voting block voting Democrat, then the Democrat Party gives them a seat at the big Democrat Party table of power.
And it's the same thing with Ralph Nees and People for the American Way and all these these these uh misnamed like Ralph people for the American Way is people for the un American way in in its operation.
Uh ACLU, all these so you have the civil rights coalition as as one subset of the coalitions of Democrat Party, and they all have their jobs to do.
And the uh Sharpton and Jackson turn out the vote, walking around cash money, all whatever it takes.
Now, the only thing the only thing that keeps this coalition uh glued together is the media.
The media, for my entire life, has never scrutinized any of these groups or the people who run them.
Quite the opposite.
They lionized them.
They puff peace profile them.
In the real world, Al Sharpton and Jesse Jackson are discredited race baiters, racists themselves, and and and just they're corrupt.
But they will never be portrayed that way in the media.
They will never be portrayed that way at all.
Even when their corruption is exposed.
It is excused.
Or it's explained by saying, well, they're look at, I mean, there's the racist history of this country, what do you expect?
And you have to understand it.
People like Sharpton and Jackson are very mad.
We have to understand their rage.
After all, they're trying to help poor people get their civil rights.
Trust me, without the the media is just another part of the coalition of the Democrat Party.
That's how you have to look at them.
Which is why I've always gotten frustrated with people who say, uh Rush, we're never we're never really gonna make any progress until the media starts reporting the truth about us.
Uh that's like saying we're never gonna make any progress until Obama becomes a conservative.
Ain't gonna happen.
And they are not, as you've seen in this episode.
It's gotten to the point now, if they can't, if they can't do the hit piece with real quotes, they'll make them up.
Or they'll report made-up quotes.
The stories of Jesse Jackson and Al Sharpton and uh their corruption is Legion.
And they do get out there, but there's no echo chamber on it.
And nobody ever holds them accountable for it.
Ha, how are you folks?
Great to have you back, Rush Limbaugh.
And the onward and growing, constantly expanding excellence in broadcasting network, right?
I had a staffer look it up for me.
And as best we can tell, the percentage of the audience that attends NFL games that's black is 12.
Now, I wanna I want to hold that number in reserve because I don't I don't know if that is just in stadium or if that is the combined television and in stadium number, and I want to research it a little further further, but but the at right now that's what we found that the only so the players are out there saying Marcellus, whatever, something saying players are 70% African American.
We can't have a guy like Limbo on here, racist radio.
We get we can't get a permanent he doesn't know what he's talking about.
Nobody cares.
The only the only people throwing that number around are people like Marcellus, whatever, and the in the and and the race baiters.
So maybe we ought to ask old Marcellus, buddy, uh, what percentage of the fans of the NFL are white since you're into this, since racial makeup is what all of you people are obsessed with in this, you tell yourself, why don't you go out and find out what percentage of the NFL audience is white and what percentage is black.
And when you spout this 70% number, Marcellus, whatever, of the players being African American, are you saying that conservatives or or you are more broadly, are you are you saying that those who don't share your race baiting views can only pay the salaries of the players, but you won't allow them to go any further?
Is that is that what it is, panel?
You'll allow race baiters, you'll allow these white racists to go to the games and buy tickets, buy the license, merchandise, buy the NFL Sunday ticket, all that sort of stuff and pay your salary, but you're not gonna let them in the league.
Is that what is that what you people say?
Tony Dungey has weighed in on this.
Dan Patrick radio show this morning.
Dan Patrick asked for his uh thoughts on the whole thing.
You know, I guess it bothered a lot of people, and it really didn't bother me.
I think anybody can have a right to pursue whatever they want.
We could go through the process just like anyone else, and there would be 28 owners that would vote, and I think the process should be able to go forth.
I don't like it when people say because of this he shouldn't be allowed to do that.
We don't have any minority ownership in the NFL right now, and I I think, you know, that just strikes me as the same thing because of the way this guy looks, because of the way he sounds, because of his political bent that he shouldn't be allowed to own a team.
I think that's something that the 28 owners should decide and and not the general public.
Brilliant man there, Tony Dungey.
Uh well, you he puts it on the owners, but but uh uh the the he's actually very uh brilliant about this.
Uh but the owners never it didn't get to the owners.
And the general public didn't determine this.
Three people, four people determined.
Well, five people Sharpton and Jackson, De Maurice Smith, the executive director of the players association, Roger Goodell, the commissioner, and Dave Checkets, my partner.
Uh those those are the five people.
It never got to the owners.
I mean, I don't they don't even know if their bid's going to be uh the the winning bid.
I'll tell you something else, folks.
There we we were told that there are two other groups that have uh made qualified non-binding bids.
Now, have you heard anybody's names in those two groups?
And have you heard anybody's name other than me in check it's in check it's group.
And no, Don, Jamie Gangel has nothing to do with this.
Whoever leaked this, and only the only groups that knew the NFL office knew, people at the Rams, of course, knew, and Goldman Sachs.
Because Goldman Sachs is the broker handling the sale, the potential sale.
So I find it fascinating.
We don't know who the other two groups are.
We don't even know if there are two other groups.
We were just told that.
But we're not allowed to know who they are, and uh the confidentiality clause that we couldn't tell everybody who was in our group.
That's why I Reuters yesterday afternoon after this program says that George Soros is in the checkage group, which I was not told.
I don't know if it's true or not.
Uh maybe uh maybe could be a Dubai group.
Shut out of the ports deal.
Maybe they want to buy the St. Louis Rams as a river there.
Uh the Mississippi River.
Hey, folks, listen to this.
U.S. and Egyptian authorities have charged nearly 100 people with helping an identity theft ring steal money from thousands of bank accounts.
An FBI statement says an indictment unsealed uh uh last week in Los Angeles charges more than 50 people in the U.S. with running the fishing scheme.
Egyptian authorities have uh charged under 47.
The FBI says that it's the largest number of defendants ever charged in a cybercrime case, and there's another one here.
Uh the FBI is uh arresting dozens more people in the U.S. and overseas to crack an identity theft ring that's victimized another thousand people.
The AP reported that a former branch manager at an RBC bank in Mobile has been indicted on allegations that she stole more than 800 grand through a complicated series of transactions.
Uh federal grand jury indicted her on charges of bank fraud.
This identity theft is uh all over the place, and it's not just happening in the drive-by media.
By the way, with this this whole thing with the NFL is a great illustration of what I mean by drive-by media.
But you know, they tried to steal my identity with fake quotes and so forth, but they also are losing their actual identity in financial transactions.
And nobody is gonna stop all of it.
When I read articles like this, the first I I think about is life lock.
I write life lock at the top of each one of these articles.
I can't believe that there are people that still don't have it.
I mean, why why would you risk taking chances with your money, your time, your reputation, when you can have life lock for just 10 bucks a month.
Actually, life lock is less than that because if you mention my name, you're gonna save an additional ten percent.
So here's a phone number, 800-440-4833.
Just use the uh promo code rush.
800 440-4833.
There are lots of people trying to steal your identity, and this can go a long way to prevent it from happening.
Matt Novahaw, welcome to the EIB network.
Hello.
Mr. Lincoln, thank you for taking my call.
Thank you, sir.
I was disappointed but not surprised to hear of a quote unquote powers that be are able to control the free market to the point that they are able to prevent you from investing your money that the way that you want to invest it.
But you were speaking earlier about uh the possible silver lining about that investment flowing through, and I have an investment opportunity for you.
And I got a couple of selling points.
One will be that uh you will be able to save your fellow taxpayers money because this investment opportunity is too big to fail.
It'll probably be cheaper than what you were gonna spend it trying to buy the Rams.
You will be able to restore journalism to its rightful place.
You'll probably drive the libs over the brink, and I suggest that you try to buy the New York Times.
Well, that would uh require a hostile takeover.
It's uh publicly held in the course of the Pinch Schultzberger family has a whole bunch of uh I forget what is class B shares that that nobody really can control what happens to the New York Times other than the family.
I mean, a lot of people have looked into into doing such a thing.
Hank Greenberg, the former guy who ran AIG at one point looked into it.
That would be a tough I I don't I don't know that I want to go into the newspaper business.
Uh have you seen what's happening to that business?
No, I know the newspaper business is on the way out, but if it had a reputable owner such as yourself, maybe the newspaper business could actually get back to what they're supposed to do and be a reputable journalism organization.
Well, I know I it's it's uh so many people have a desire to something be done about this.
Uh it's just it's it's deteriorating, it's becoming more and more corrupt, and it's pervasive.
It's uh it's everywhere.
It's not there's no integrity professionalism uh in it at all.
And it's there are people uh a lot of conservatives who own publications, newspapers and so forth, Washington Examiner, Washington Times, uh to name uh to name a couple that come to mind, and there are others uh that are a little smaller out there, but people are making the effort.
They really are.
I gotta I gotta go here, folks, a brief timeout.
Sit tight, we'll be right back.
And back to the phone, Chagrin Falls, Ohio.
This is Therese, and welcome to the EIB network.
Hi, Rush.
Um I'm 45.
I've listened to you for 24 years.
That's for that's a pretty long time.
That is.
Um I just wanted to say that there's a positive way we could support you.
And is it a it's a capitalist thing, it's uh support the economy thing.
And what we could do is we could support your advertisers.
I t this is a message message to your listeners to go out and buy Zycamp.
Go out and get carbonite, go get life locked, go get go buy a select comfort bed if you can afford it.
And I've listened to you for so long, I've bought the products that you've advertised.
I bought Life Lock a ha a year and a half ago.
I bought a select comfort bed ten years ago.
And when I moved from point A to point B in Central Ohio, there was something wrong with my select comfort bed, and I called them up and they said, Don't worry, Han, it's taken care of.
We'll we'll we'll replace the whole thing.
And I said, I don't need the whole thing.
I just need the guts inside of it.
And that's what they did.
And all I need to do is get carbonate and I'm covered.
And I I should have bought you started using Zycam four days ago because I got a cold.
Yeah, yeah, you should have listened to me.
Sometimes people just don't listen to me.
I try to tell 'em.
Yeah, I I got it, but I didn't take it every two or three years, every two or three hours, and now I sound like a oh, I don't know what I sound like on that.
I don't definitely don't sound like somebody that needs to be on the radio.
But you don't you don't you don't sound bad.
But but I just want to say that not only do you have your family and you have your friends, and you got pumpkin and you got your dog, you have twenty million friends in this United States.
And I know you are set for life, but if they came and wipe you out, you have a home to go to.
You have twenty million homes that will support you.
And so help me God, if they ever come out after you any harder than what they have, watch out.
We will make the tea parties look like nothing.
Wow.
Wow.
I'm serious as a heart attack.
They don't want to mess with people like me.
They already have.
Well, yeah, I know they have.
And you know what?
I'm not giving up.
I'm not I'm I'm not gonna.
Well, I want to tell you, I'm not either.
I'm not either.
I I uh I'm I'm inspired by all of you in the audience, things like you've uh uh such as you've said to me.
But it's it's in my nature as well.
The the the competitive aspect of this, uh plus I'm so blessed I'm doing what I was born to do.
Uh and I I've I'm uh what I do here is I don't consider it a job or d or work at all.
But that that is um that's such a great call.
That Theresa, I I uh by the way, I can't agree with you more about things that the audio while they're canceling all their NFL stuff.
Take the money and put it in this thing like Carbonite.
Or else it like comfort bed.
Anyway, Teresa, thanks very much.
I uh appreciate that's the phone line we still have problems on, right?
That's that's that static was not on our carbonite, you you may be wondering what it is.
Carbonite is a online off site backup for your computer hard drive.
And if you have not had your computer hard drive fry or fail, or if uh something's you know, your computer stolen, something is gonna happen, and that data on your hard drive, some or all of it, is gonna vanish.
And if you don't have it backed up, you are never going to be able to restore it.
And more and more people are putting more and more crucially important things, and not just pictures, but they're scanning documents, making PDF files out of putting them on the computer, because it doesn't take any space to store them.
But if you lose that hard drive, you're you're cooked.
Now, Carbonite backs up your hard drive every time you're connected to the internet.
It does it in the background, you don't see it, and if you ever lose your data, it's simple steps to restore what you've uh what what's been backed up, it's there, and you will be so happy.

Hi.
How are you doing, Russ?

How are you doing, sir?
Fine, sir.
Thanks very much.
Um I I'm about tired of these lives playing the race card.
The one that upset me the most was uh Sheila Jackson Lee in Congress on the floor using our taxpayer money to bring up private citizens.
What would what you should be she should not be saying that in Congress about you.
You should be able to spend your money the way you want to spend it.
I thought this was America.
I thought we were supposed to be free to be able to do what we we want to do with our own money.
But obviously, somewhere along the line that has changed.
And I'm so I'm just I'm fed up to here with it, Rush.
And I'm just so glad that we have you and other people out there that are speaking the truth every day.
Because we are getting lied to constantly.
Constantly, every day.
Well, you're you are so right about that.
You're being lied to from the White House on down.
I'm so sorry they did what they did to you, Rush, and I know you're gonna stand up, and I know you're gonna fight.
And my sentiments exactly with the last lady that talked to you.
We are here for you, Rush.
One hundred and ten minutes.
You know, I've I've learned that over the twenty-one years, and that's why these things don't bother me.
Because they've, you know, they didn't they didn't make the show, the media didn't make it, they can't break it.
They can try all they want.
But uh I've I've in all my years of radio, and then when I was younger and wanted to get into it, I I never dreamed of what this kind of a bond with an audience would be like.
I never understood it.
And I don't think I could have understood it until it actually happened.
But I do.
I'm I'm I I love all of you, as I said yesterday, and I say it frequently.
Thank you, um Thanks El Musho.
I gotta go.
Quick timeout.
back after this.
