Time Text
And we are back.
Great to have you, folks, Rush Limbaugh, the EIB Network and the Limbaugh Institute for Advanced Conservative Studies, having more fun than human beings should be allowed to have, and we are here in Los Angeles.
And we'll be here all week.
It's great to have you.
Telephone number if you want to be on the program 800-282-288-2 and the email address L Rushbow at EIB net com.
Now, I just noticed something.
This this piece that I mentioned a couple times in the previous hour, the uh Los Angeles Times, this guy David Horsey shut down as proof one thing, government's vital to us all.
Turns out this guy's a rancher.
And it is in this piece that he says, sure political entertainers like me.
Just a second.
And Sean Hannity have built very lucrative careers by bashing government day in and day out.
Well, that's not what we do.
But nevertheless.
But in their pampered lives.
Pampered lives.
You know who's pampered is Barack Obama.
Barack Obama leads a pampered life.
Barack Obama's living off everybody else.
Barack Obama is the guy living a life he would not have if he had to earn it and produce it for himself.
Not even close.
I'm not living off of anybody, including the government.
Purposefully by design.
So it's just it's another example of achievers being the problem.
Achievers.
People that succeed somehow are insensitive and uncaring.
And somehow are pampered.
But in their pampered lives, they have never had to see crops wither in a drought or farmland swamped by a flood.
I grew up on the Mississippi River.
What does this guy think I haven't seen?
My family are attorneys.
Their clients contain lists and lists of agricultural people who've had to deal with this kind of thing.
Thought all my life growing up.
To this day it still happens, of course.
Farmland swamped by a flood, a herd of cattle perish in a snowstorm.
And but he begins his piece here.
Ranchers in western South Dakota are busy with the grim work of gathering the carcasses of more than 75,000 cattle killed in a freak wind and snowstorm last week.
They could use some help, but none is coming from a shutdown federal government.
That's the opening paragraph.
Now, I have a question for you.
How many of you knew that there was a massive winter storm in South Dakota last week?
I didn't know.
Here are the details.
This is uh uh weather.com story from October the 7th.
A record breaking storm that dumped four feet of snow in parts of western South Dakota, left ranchers dealing with heavy losses, in some cases, perhaps up to half their herds, as they assess how many of their cattle died during the unseasonably early blizzard.
So what we have here, for we had a horrific winter storm that hit South Dakota a week ago.
Total 20 inches of snow, massive cattle losses.
And of course, that's got a lot of consequences.
They now think up to a hundred thousand head of cattle, fifty to seventy-five percent of the herds.
The people have still not dug out of this thing.
FEMA is still not there.
Obama still hasn't mentioned it.
Now, Mr. Horsey here in the LA Times assumes this is because of the shutdown.
Pampered Republicans have shut down the government, and therefore FEMA and Obama, oh, they would love to be in South Dakota.
Oh, they would love to be helping these ranchers.
Oh yeah.
They would love to be there for money and assistance and everything they could.
But those damn pampered Republicans have shut the government down.
They haven't gotten any help outside their state governments.
But it isn't because of any government shutdown.
It isn't because the Republicans are pampered, Mr. Horsey.
The reason why you and your fellow ranchers haven't gotten any help is because Obama and the boys cannot afford for the people to find out that in the middle of their global warming catastrophe, there's a major blizzard that was two months early.
Because a major blizzard two months early doesn't fit the bill of climate change and global warming caused by evil Republicans living their lives driving big SUVs.
This thing has been totally ignored.
Why are they ignoring them?
Is there mostly majority white people affected?
Who knows?
But it did not get any coverage whatsoever, and there hasn't been any government outreach.
And of course, look at even this.
The government can't prevent the snowstorm.
The government can't prevent droughts or floods, and Obama doesn't know anything about them.
But even in the midst of this blizzard with all of this damage to crops and to cattle, this guy writes a piece blaming me and others for the government shutdown when in fact, and I know he's not going to believe this, but the reason there isn't any assistance up there is because the left in this country can't admit that it happened.
Why has there not been one story on this outside of the local media?
Why?
Look at the damage here.
If this had been New Orleans, or if this had been New York and New Jersey and a hurricane, you'd have heard about it, particularly in the middle of a government shutdown, because the media would have taken the occasion to blame the Republicans for this.
But here you've got South Dakota, where there might be a little bit of a oil boom going on as well.
Here you have, well, at least in that region.
Here you have a major blizzard, 20 inches, four feet of snow.
Four feet of snow, hundred thousand head of cattle gone.
And not even a mention of it.
And I will guarantee you, hard as some of you might find this to believe.
I'll guarantee you the reason it wasn't mentioned is because it doesn't go well.
I mean, not one story in the so-called mainstream media, not one.
This is at weather.com on October 7th.
And now Mr. Horsey's writing about it here.
The rancher, Western South Dakota, busy with the grim work.
He has a freak storm, freak storm.
And uh, but none is coming from Washington.
No help because the government shutdown.
And he ends his piece this way.
Yes, sometimes government can be like a friend who gets on our nerves, it gets a little bossy, does things we don't agree with, but particularly in times of crisis like the disaster in South Dakota, we need that friend to be standing by our side.
Where are they?
Mr. Horsey.
I don't have the power to keep him out of there.
I don't have the power, neither does Sean Hannity.
We don't have the power to keep Obama.
Who's an expert on cattle?
Obama's an expert on floods.
He's an expert on blizzards.
This is an expert on everything.
We don't have the power to keep him out of there.
What has been harmed by the shutdown?
Because the USDA farm services offices are closed, so ranchers can't begin the process of applying for relief from losses.
Couple days going to make that much of a difference.
I bet the USDA takes weeks, if not months, to process these loss applications, the best of times.
At any rate, I uh I just had to go back because I'd missed when I first perused his piece that he himself is a rancher.
I thought he was a columnist for the newspaper.
Turns out he's a rancher, and he's blaming the Republicans for the shutdown, which is the way this is supposed to go.
This is an example of the media in the Democrat Party back pocket.
Okay.
Uh over the uh weekend, there was this massive rally at the World War II Memorial, and Sarah Palin showed up, Ted Cruz showed up, uh, Rand Paul showed up.
There were people that they clashed with the cops, they took down barricades blocking the World War II memorial, and they dumped them outside the White House.
Now, this group was upset with the closure of memorials in Washington due to the shutdown stalemate, and it was organized by something called a Million Vet March, but it soon took on a more political tone.
According to NBC News, the president was in the White House at the time the protesters arrived.
Video from cameras of the White House lawn showed people carrying barricades.
You know, the the realybody's asking, what were Ted Cruz and Palin doing showing up over there?
The real question is how in the name of Sam Hill does this happen in the United States of how in the world does the National Mall get shut down to World War II vets, but opened to illegal aliens to have an amnesty rally.
The big news is that American veterans sought to protest this and did take it to the White House.
That is the news.
Now they're being excoriated for being kooks and freaks.
And uh so are Palin and Cruz.
First the audio sound bites.
We have Palin, we have Mike Lee, we have Cruz.
This is Sunday afternoon.
Um Sarah Palin was interviewed by Greta Van Susteren uh about all this, and she said, Why are you down here on the memorial this morning?
What in the world are you doing?
I'm here to uh hopefully help uh show the veterans that America's heart for our veterans is immeasurable, and we think it's atrocious that our military is being used as political pawns and a political game, and uh we're gonna change that.
And we appreciate these guys who are the good guys in the Senate picking up the fight for us.
But uh there are a few things that we can do to show our support, and that's why I'm here.
Senator Lee, what about you?
Why are you belongs to the people?
We're here to show our solidarity with them.
This is not a tool to be used against them in a political fight.
This is theirs.
Senator Cruz, what about you?
Why did you show up here?
Our veterans should be above politics.
It is shameful that the administration is barricading and trying to shut down the memorials.
Weeks ago, the House of Representatives passed funding to open every memorial in this country, and President Obama and the Democrats are blocking it.
They're trying to play games, and and the American people know they're trying to play games.
They need to come together and fix this problem and stop holding our veterans hostage.
So on MSNBC this morning on the famous Morning Joe show, F. Chuck Todd showed up, the former political director for NBC.
And he um he described it as odd.
The decision that Cruz and Palin made to attend this rally on Sunday.
He said, yesterday was Cruz and Palin doing this odd protest, and you're you're just sitting there going, What what planet are you got?
What planet are you living on?
F. Chuck's talking about himself.
He says, I'm sitting there watching this.
What planet are these people on?
Now stop at that.
Chuck Todd thinks it's odd that a former governor and a sitting senator would join World War II vets protesting the fact that their memorial is closed.
Can't understand what in the world they would be doing.
It says what what plan he can't for the life of him understand it.
So what what does this mean?
Lending lending your support to World War II veterans is odd.
In whose mind.
Fascinating.
All right, I'm gonna take a brief time out.
We'll come back and we will get to your calls.
Wait eight hundred two eight two two eight eight two.
Don't go away.
Back before you know it, folks.
And we are back.
El Rushball, half my brain tied behind my back, just to make it fair.
We're gonna start in Indianapolis.
Julie, uh, great to have you on the program.
Hi.
Hi, Rush.
It's great to be on your show.
Uh, thank you very much.
Appreciate that.
Calling in about the housing market.
I'm a Remax owner in the Pendleton area in Indiana.
Yeah, go ahead, keep talking.
I'm I'm trying to hear you.
Okay.
Over the past five years, as we watched our community lose their jobs and their homes due to the recession, we are now seeing a small improvement In the housing market, and now the USDA is shut down, and twenty to twenty-five percent of our loans in our area are um using this USDA program, and so we have buyers who cannot close on their houses and sellers who are walking away from them.
And you attribute that to what?
Well, right now the USDA is such a uh loan program, it's a no money down government program for rural areas in about the city.
Wait a minute, you wait wait a second.
You're saying USDA?
USDA.
It's a rural development loan.
So the government again has gotten involved in the mortgage business.
So now that they're involved, it's a no money down families up to about a seventy-three thousand dollar a year income with a combined income of about seventy-three thousand a year, can qualify for a no money-down loan that allows them to purchase a home in these rural areas, which my area qualifies for.
It's a hundred percent um financing, and it's a fixed rate, and it's a conventional loan product.
Uh so you you you're saying that the government shutdown is killing you.
Is that is that your point?
I'm saying that we have we have many, many loans.
We've got about 25 to 30 percent of our personal loans are USDA.
And the USDA takes about 30 to 45 days to approve these loans, and so now these loans are stopped, and our sellers are walking away from the transactions because they don't want to wait on the USDA to open and they're looking for a new buyer.
Okay, so what you're I I think I get it.
What you're saying is that the government is purposely delaying all of this using the shutdown as an excuse to hurt people.
I I can't speak for the government, but I can't understand why we finally have a slight increase in our housing market, and then the government will not open USDA so these loans can go through.
I would say definitely a pain put on the what they what what they want to happen here, Julie, is for you to blame the Republicans for this.
It's absolutely not the Republicans' fault.
Well, but they they want you to think they want whoever's being denied the right to buy the house, the mortgage, whatever you you said, they want Republicans getting blamed because they want the shutdown being blamed for this.
The objective here is to make sure the Republicans get that blame.
That's all this is about.
That's all this is about.
Well, I am surprised that nobody is talking about the housing issue.
Nobody even I've walked, you know, of course I'm big fan of yours and Sean Hannity and all the Fox uh people that we watch, and nobody has even seen how this has impacted our housing.
The other thing, Rush, that's interesting, and I don't know if it's changed yet, but all new loans now.
The mortgage company has to c get from the IRS directly a copy of someone's transcript for their um tax returns to make sure there's no fraud.
Well, they don't know if they're open now, but at the beginning of this, they couldn't get transcripts, so they couldn't write any new loans because you can't get a transcript from the IRS.
Well, it just sounds horrible.
It's ridiculous.
We're finally getting a small amount of steam.
You know, our appraisals are an issue.
Well, I hadn't even heard that.
I hadn't heard the housing market was rebounding.
That's even news to me.
Well, we're not rebounding.
I didn't say I didn't use the word rebound.
I said we're starting to get a little bit of steam.
We're starting to slowly come forward, and people have this false impression from the media that the housing market has recovered.
The housing market has not recovered.
The housing market is trying to get some steam and move forward.
Well, uh look, I hate that I I I know this is an area of specific interest to you because you're in it.
But there's nothing in this economy is rebounding.
Nothing is going right.
Nothing's going.
That's that's the whole point.
There isn't any economic recovery going on.
And Barack Obama is not miraculously helping people.
He's not lifting people out of doldrums.
Obama and the Democrats are not about that.
There's none of that.
I I think this is all of this is a myth.
There's there is no economic rec recovery.
People are losing their ability to buy homes, and when they have the ability, you have a situation like you described where the government walks away from it and takes away the opportunity.
They're not about improving opportunity for people, particularly right now, Julie, because there's a golden opportunity to blame the Republicans for this.
Maybe you don't, but they want the people affected by this, just like this guy in the LA Times, this rancher who got hit by this blizzard.
It's the Republicans' fault for shutting down the government.
That FEMA hadn't been up there to rescue him.
And see, the the way this works is liberalism is this giant utopian place where Nirvana exists.
And when anything goes wrong, the government is in there immediately to fix it.
Except it doesn't work that way.
Here you have real life, a real-life blizzard, a real-life disaster happening to South Dakota ranchers, and the government can't do anything about it.
And if there weren't a shutdown, they wouldn't be able to do anything about it.
They weren't able to rebuild New Orleans.
They still haven't rebuilt parts of New Jersey and New York with the hurricane there.
They just can't.
And look at Obamacare.
It's an utter disaster.
The government does not do these wonderful things.
They cannot make these wonderful things happen.
And yet all of these people have this blind investment in it.
As though utopia is right around the corner.
But the real look at Obamacare.
The reality is it is an outright disaster.
So is your program.
And yet the government's supposed to be making sure this doesn't happen when in fact they're taking the occasion of this shutdown to make it happen, so the Republicans get blamed.
Okay.
Great to have you here, folks.
Rush Limbaugh and the Excellence and Broadcasting Network, Limbaugh Institute for Advanced Conservative Studies.
You know, I um I I don't want to appear insensitive here, folks, but one of the reasons that I had problems with our previous caller is the USDA is the U.S. Department of Agriculture, right?
I did I had no idea that the USDA had a no-down payment home buying plan.
And it just it didn't compute with Matthew.
No, what there's got a USDA has got to mean something other than U.S. Department of Agriculture.
But no, lo and behold, there is this USDA rural loan program.
And I, for the life of me, did not know that the USDA is giving out loans with no money down for houses in rural areas.
I guess this is after we pay taxes for them to have telephone service and then internet service.
I I I was I was sitting here, I it was I was literally stumped trying to figure out what in the world the this woman was talking about.
And now that I've finally figured it out, makes total sense.
Any pain that the regime can inflict, they're going to do it.
They're the ones inflicting the pain because they know they've got the media in their back pocket, and they know that the media is going to blame the Republicans for it.
And this is why the Republicans cave, folks.
They don't want to be blamed for this.
Here, grab somebody 21.
This is Obama this afternoon at Martha's Table Food Pantry.
You ever heard of that?
I had neither.
Obama's at Martha's Table Food Pantry.
It's uh he what he volunteered to make sandwiches for the homeless.
So he's making sandwiches for the homeless at Martha's table food pantry.
I mean, actually, it's Martha's table, food pantry, is what it is.
It's another thing I've never heard of.
I never heard of a USDA no money down by a house program, and I'd never heard of Martha's table.
But Martha's table in caps a food pantry.
And so the reporters were there, obviously, to document Obama's compassion and his caring and his concern for the downtrodden.
And he spoke to reporters about the shutdown, and this is what he said.
Uh, to try to extract extreme or partisan concessions.
There are going to be differences between the parties.
There are going to be differences in terms of budget priorities.
But we don't need to inflict pain on the American people or risk the possibility that America's full faith and credit is damaged just because one side is not getting its way.
It's Obama not getting his way.
But here he just admits it.
We don't need to inflict pain on the American people.
He's the one that's doing it.
Because he's the one that holds the power in Washington.
He determines what's opened and closed during this shutdown in which most is open.
There's only 17% of it that's uh that shut down.
So let's grab somebody number one.
I was going to play these three earlier.
This is an example of how the entire Washington press corps is just totally caught up now, totally swept up in this global catastrophe that is just awaiting us right around the corner.
Up first, good morning America Today, Jonathan Carrell.
The lack of any apparent urgency around here is just plain bizarre.
There is nothing scheduled at the White House.
The Senate doesn't come back in till two o'clock this afternoon.
There are no meetings scheduled, at least not yet, between the major players.
Oh my God, they're not even talking.
Oh no!
It's a catastrophe.
The leaders in Washington are not even talking.
And of course, people in America cannot go through the day without the government.
People outside the beltway, they can't live unless people in Washington are talking to each other.
They can't live, they can't get through the day unless people are negotiating with each other.
And there's no sense of urgency, which is the way it is in negotiations until the last minute.
Here's Robin Roberts also in Good Morning America today.
And she's uh she's talking with their economics correspondent, Rebecca Jarvis, about how the stock market is expected to react to Washington.
Now, this is interesting.
The regime expected the market to plunge today.
They wanted the market to plunge today.
The market didn't plunge today.
They are a little discombobulated over this.
The market actually came out opened up.
The regime thought it was going to plummet because there's no urgency, because there are no talks, because there are no negotiations, because the Republicans aren't talking to anybody, and Obama can't get them to talk, and that the market didn't panic.
But here's Robin Roberts and Rebecca Jarvis before the market opened, I believe, talking about what they expect to happen.
How will the markets react?
It could be an ugly day for your 401k.
ABC's Rebecca Jarvis is live there on the floor of the New York Stock Exchange.
This morning, the International Monetary Fund is warning of an international global catastrophe.
Massive worldwide disruptions with consequences for all if the U.S. were to default on its debt as we wade into this unprecedented territory.
As we speak, the Dow Jones industrial average is up 20.29.
It's up was up a little higher than that.
But they really see Christine Lagarde, a cadaverous-looking IMF babe.
She comes out, well, she got the George Hamilton tan and wrinkles and the white hair.
You know, when you look at it, she reminds me of Ma Richards.
When I looked at Ann Richards, I said, iron your face.
Do something.
You're on television.
And I think the same way when I look at this babe, iron your face.
Anyway, she's out predicting total catastrophe.
A total collapse because of the United States might blow through its debt limit.
And all of this, folks, again, I'm blue in the face.
I don't know what good it does, but I'm just going to keep telling you.
There is no way that we will Default on paying our bills unless Obama simply refuses to.
Because we have the money coming in.
The service on the debt every month is about $18 billion.
And there is, on average, it changes every month, tax revenue income changes every month, but on average it's $200 to $225 billion a month of tax revenue coming in.
A lot.
We've got more than enough.
Thomas Sowell has even written about this.
We have more than enough to pay off the interest on the debt every month.
There's no reason for a default unless Obama directs the Treasury Secretary not to make the payments.
But there is constitutional law, I think even statutory law, that the president must make the monthly debt payment on the interest of the national debt.
That is a law.
Not that that matters much to this regime, but the money is there.
So they set it all up.
I think it's funny is Robin Roberts and Rebecca Jarvis.
Oh no, the IMF is warning of an international global catastrophe.
They're bracing for an ugly day for your 401k.
And the stock market is up.
Let me see what it is now.
Up 2480s, up four points since I began this brief little monologue.
It didn't plummet.
It didn't crash.
There's no panic.
They can't believe it.
Brett Bayer, Fox News this morning on Fox and Friends, Steve Deuce.
Said, give us an update, Brett.
Where are we right now?
Because it looked like the House had something, looked like the president might go along with it.
And then he said, Nope, not interested.
What's going on out there?
When we left Friday, you all know the markets had soared.
There was this sense in the city that uh things were headed in the right direction, even for a short-term deal that kind of disappeared over the weekend as the Senate went back and forth and the negotiations stalled.
I'll tell you, for all of the people who think that there's just going to be some solution automatically, uh, there are more people in the camp of, wow, this may actually happen.
It may actually not go expand the dead limit.
Wow, it may actually happen.
I um I don't quite know how to express this.
And I but it's to me, I don't care who they are, I don't I don't care whether they're nominally conservative or full boat conservative or full boat liberal democrat.
Everybody that lives and breathes inside the beltway, of course, that's the center of their universe, and whatever happens there is the only thing that's happening.
It's the only thing of any importance.
And so, as far as those people are concerned, whether or not the Senate, House Republicans end up talking to Obama, that's it.
That's all that matters today.
And of course, for real people, ordinary average people outside the beltway all over this country, that is not the concern that they're facing.
They're scared to death and angry over Obamacare.
They look an economy that's shutting down and doesn't provide them jobs.
They look at the housing market not rebounding.
There is no economic recovery.
And all that's going on in Washington is this reporting on a horse race about who will win.
Will Obama finally get his way?
Will the U.S. default?
We're not gonna default on our payments.
It simply isn't gonna happen.
That everything taking place in that town right now is designed to inflict pain on certain people, doesn't matter who, just certain groups of people, so that the table is set for Republicans to get blamed for it.
But the fact of the matter remains that the people in charge, the people who've been elected, have shown in almost five years now that they are incompetent.
They do not know how to grow an economy if they're even trying.
They do not know what steps to take to open up the job market if they even care.
They don't even know how to implement their prized program, Obamacare.
They are just glaringly incompetent.
And yet the left looks at them and wants to cut them all kinds of slack because of their good intentions and their big hearts and the fact that they help people.
How are they helping people?
How is Obama helping anybody?
He's not helping the ranchers in the blizzard.
He's not helping people unemployed.
And we've got a day of food stamp, thirteen hours, food stamp cards not working, and a near national panic.
It's just mind boggling.
Take a quick time out, folks, and be back and continue after this.
Back to the phones we go.
Claire, Wilmington, Delaware.
Great to have you on the EIB number.
Glad you waited.
Hi.
Hi, Rush.
I just want to make a few points.
Um the first one is Orson Wells once said, I'll paraphrase it, that the further people get from the truth, the more they will hate the people who actually speak it.
And I think that's what we can say is happening right now with Ted Cruz, uh, Mike Lee, Rand Paul, and I want to make another point that's uh of irony.
Last week there was eight senators who were arrested at the immigration alley rally, and they wore that as a badge of honor.
I mean, they were proud, it was almost a photo op for them.
But there's this constant demon demonization of the uh Tea Party and the people like Mike Lee, who have never been arrested.
We've never done anything wrong other than, you know, won our country the way it was founded.
And I was just thinking this as I was waiting uh for you on hold in you know, the um I'm trying to think how to say this right.
When it came to occupy Wall Street and the immigration rally, the police and the um the law enforcement were not sent out in drove the way they were with what happened yesterday.
And I have to guess that the reason that would be is because if it's orchestrated by a certain group and everybody knows what the parameters are, you don't have to send the police out.
You already know who the players are, you already know what's going to happen.
But if you have a group like the Vets yesterday where they didn't know what was going to happen, because these people truly were representing their rights.
Well, then you might be more inclined because you're not in control of those people to send out the forces to come against them.
And I think the Democrats, uh I mean, I know a lot of them here in Delaware and they're good people, but if this isn't enough, last week when the Democratic Party vowed with the illegal immigrants and allowed them to enter our parks, but did not stand with our veterans.
If that isn't enough to sway the three or four percent that voted against Romney, if that isn't enough to wake up the the democratic, the true good democratic people to say, hey, wait a minute, what's going on?
I don't know what will.
Well, I've been asking myself that about various events in the news for years, for five years.
I've I've been asking if this doesn't wake people up, if that doesn't wake people up, what will?
You talk about these Democrats that got arrested with honor.
I mean, they did.
I mean, because they're reliving their past.
If you look at the people that got arrested, they've been previously been arrested in their youth during the civil rights marches or during the uh the 60s anti-war days, it's a badge of honor to be arrested by the quote unquote establishment, even though they're it now.
But it was all for show.
It's it it's it's to show solidarity with the downtrodden, solidarity with the people who are taking it on the chin, solidarity, the people being victimized by the rich and the heartless, and so forth.
The veterans, of course, we know there were Republican and Democratic veterans, and these are people that have actually done something for our country, and every darn one of us ought to pay these people homage for what they gave.
And if that's how they're going to treat the people that have done for us, everyone should be quite frightened for their children if the illegals are more important than the people that have actually done for us.
Well, here's the thing.
I I don't know that they're not.
I I in fact I tend to think that, and I I will admit that there's a lot of uh wishful thinking in this and maybe even a little hope.
But I'm I'm of the belief that people all over this country are outraged by this.
They're outraged to the extent they know it, to the extent they know about it, which is another factor here.
To the extent they know about it, the fact that the National Mall was closed to World War II veterans, but opened for illegals to march in protest of this oppressive government for not letting them become citizens.
And then for Nancy Pelosi to show up and thank Obama personally for making that happen.
I think there are millions of people out there livid about this who don't have any outlet for it, so you don't know about it.
And they don't have the media covering them, and the media is not outraged by it, so there aren't any stories about it.
So you think it's all happening in a vacuum, and you think, well, what's gonna wake people up?
And frankly, I think all kinds of people are waking up.
And that's why Cruz and Mike Lee, frankly, are still doing what they're doing.
It's why they haven't been shut down yet.
So I happen to mention last week that I I sensed the country dying.
Gary Bauer at the Values Voters Summit said he disagreed with me.
He thinks the country is being killed.
