Time Text
Welcome to today's edition of the Rush 24-7 Podcast.
Hey folks, great to be back with you here, back on the very day I promised that I would be here.
And remember Jeb Bush announcing today, I always told you the Bushes, whatever else you think of them, they're polite, they are mannered, they're well bred.
Jeb Bush waited until today.
My return to make his announcement.
Greetings, great to have you back with us, folks as well.
800-282-2882 if you want to be on the program of the email address, L Rushbow at EIBNet.com.
Have you seen the box office success of this this this new Jurassic Park movie, Jurassic World?
I I mean it's just like the second biggest opening weekend of a movie anywhere, any time in a history of movies.
And you know who the happiest person about that has to be is Hillary.
Because she's from there.
Do you know Hillary's even out there saying she doesn't know if people want to watch her age?
Folks, I'm I'm s I have to tell you here, I am I I I remain always surprised by this.
I have a gigantic audio soundbite roster.
By the way, I'm just gonna tell you up front, it will be impossible for me to get to everything I want to get to today.
And some of it is gonna require in-depth.
For example, I've got this audio soundbite roster here.
Do you realize they're they they make things up about me when I'm gone so that they can bounce things off of other people.
They make up things I haven't said and ask other people about them on these TV talk shows.
I mean, even when I'm not here and I'm not saying anything, they make up things I'm saying and then ask their guests about it, or comment on it.
And one of the things that apparently, and I didn't have any news on last week.
I l I uh I've I've started doing this when I'm actually away, I actually go away from the news from from any I mean I didn't have on any cable news, I didn't read any news websites until I guess Saturday, when I started trying to get back in the mood and the mindset for this.
And apparently all last week, one of the big things that that was discussed was of course Caitlin Jenner.
And my observation that what was really being attempted here by the left is a redefinition of normal and normalcy.
And that little soundbite of mine, that that that quip of mine last week, was all over the place last week in in uh in well, my comment on it two weeks ago was all over the place last week, uh, while I was out, and I ran across uh a couple of posts at a website called The Federalist,
which have taken up this entire concept of who are the new kooks and who are the new weirdos, and how it is massive propaganda creating delusion in the minds of so many of really great how is it possible that in just the last ten years all of these things which were taboo throughout our culture,
throughout the culture, things that were taboo are now not only normal but celebrated.
And the people who are not really supportive of the or are called kooks and and and the new weirdos.
So I want to spend a little time on that when we get to it.
Um we also to talk about cutting edge.
So we've got this this woman in Spokane by the name of Rachel Dolezal, who says she's black.
She's not.
But she says she's black.
Her parents say she's not.
Well, that's not we have the first transracial person in the country on this program before I left.
We had a guy call here said he identifies as black.
You remember it?
It was it was on it was on June the what was the date here, June the third.
Grabbed soundbite number one.
This is just a setup.
I've got the whole call coming up, later that we're gonna excerpt it and start and stop it because it was uh mind blowing and and it was uh call I can't say a number of people commented to me about it, but this is how it began back on June 3rd of this year.
Let me grab a quick call, chilla coffee, Missouri, Steve, great to have you on the EIB network, sir, you're up first today, and welcome.
Thank you.
Hey Rush.
I'm a little nervous because I've never come out of the closet in any way before, but I wanted you to know, be the first to know in your audience to know that I am actually an African American.
I've been an African American my entire life.
It's been bottled up inside me, and as of today, I'm no longer going to be Caucasian.
And that call went on, but again, June 3rd, and we're gonna have the whole call rolled off here in just a second for you, but the uh in case you didn't hear it, if you did hear it, it's a greatest hits call.
You're gonna want to hear it again.
Uh but here we Rachel Dolazal's not the first.
It all happened here on the Rush Limbaugh program.
Now, this this dolazol, babe.
How best to get into this?
Let me try this.
One of the things that was awaiting me in my show prep email account when I got back was a Wall Street Journal story.
And the headline is Wall Street is getting tired of funding socially conservative Republicans running for president.
There's a picture of Ted Cruz here.
And here's how this story begins.
For years, when it came to presidential candidates, Wall Street made huge compromises in order to support the Republican Party.
The money men in New York City set aside their socially liberal views in order to support fiscally conservative candidates because that was the only way to get on the same page as the Republican base.
The result has been a series of candidates, Wall Street's big donors did not really want.
It seems those donors are getting tired of that outcome.
Edge funded billionaire Leon Cooperman recently vetted his frustration with his arrangement, this arrangement on an episode of Wall Street Weeks.
And I tend to be more Republican in my views, but socially very liberal.
And I'm going to have trouble with any Republican that does not disavow a fixation with social issues.
This irritates me to no end.
I've had, as I've reported to you on several occasions here, Many of my uh Republican friends over the course of the years have also said the same thing to me, as though somehow I'm the leader of the social movement aspect of Republican Party.
They come up to me and they practically wag their fingers at me.
We just can't win.
We've got to get rid of these social issues.
And if you don't lead the peck on this, we're never going to win anything.
The social issues are dragging us down.
I said, What social will?
Well, you know, abortion.
Okay, fine.
And I I saw this headline finally something clicked.
It is not Republicans who push social issues.
It is not conservatives who push social issues.
And I realize now that many things, wait, just a second, Rush.
Ladies and gentlemen, would you agree with the statement that our culture is rotting?
Would you partially agree?
Would you somewhat agree?
Would you totally agree?
Would you totally disagree?
My my thought is that most people on our side would agree to one extent or another that our culture is rotting.
Now who is responsible for this?
Who actually is injecting social issues into politics?
And has been from practically the beginning.
If you think it's the Republicans, and if you think it's the Christian right, the moral majority, or what have you, you are wrong.
They are defenders.
As is the usual case, it is the left that establishes the agenda on practically everything because they're relentless.
What is A demand that everybody agree to and accept and support and agree with and love gay marriage.
Is that not a social issue?
And now what is it and who is it that is demanding that we open up and embrace transgenderism?
Is it not the left demanding all of this?
Who is it that has watered down all of these social institutions that are rooted in morality?
It's not us, it's the left.
And so when conservatives respond in a way that is actually an attempt to defend tradition in institutions, particularly social and moral institutions, that's exactly what it is.
It's a defense, it's a reaction to what we see as an aggressive attempt on the part of the left to transform our culture into something that it hasn't been.
And that's how we get to the idea that, well, if what used to be weird or kooky is now the new norm, then of course, who are the new cooks and weirdos?
Which I think is part of the agenda is to have Republicans and conservatives thought of as uncool, unhipped kooks and weirdos.
To the point now that when Caitlin Jenner or transgenderism itself comes up in the context of a political debate, question, interview, or what have you, the odds are every Republican you see is going to pump the issue by saying, Oh, we support human beings.
And we love human beings.
And if a human being thinks he's a woman is again as a man, fine with me.
That to me is an attempt on the part of any Republican does that to appear to be hip, to appear to be cool, to avoid being thought of as the new weirdo.
But in the process, the culture ruts because nobody's willing to stand up and stop or oppose this thing.
Folks, I saw one thing, I don't remember how I saw it, but it did made me abandon my sabbatical and head to the web to try to find this.
This notion, I thought it was a joke at first.
It didn't take me long to realize it wasn't a joke.
That the term you guys represents sexism now.
That you guys is discriminatory.
You guys, as an inclusive of all of humanity is a slight to women.
And women who call each other, hey, you guys, they are betraying the sisterhood.
I mean, this is getting absurd.
It has been getting absurd, it has been absurd getting absurd for years now.
And nobody stands up and says, stop.
Nobody stands up and says, just this is this is stupid, this is silly, stop it.
Instead, everybody reacts in a way, or I say everybody, a vast majority of people react in ways that they will not be tagged as the new weirdos or kooks.
And in that way the left wins in their effort to transform the culture, which is rooted in a desire that actually destroys the culture and re-establishes a new one that is not going to do anybody any good in the long term.
And I believe one of the fundamental problems we have in our country is not just political, it's hard to separate the two, but the cultural rot that we are all witnessing.
And you who have kids growing up, you're growing up into this.
I have, I don't know, no matter what you're willing to say publicly, I know you're scared to death of what your kids are growing into.
This Rachel Doldezall, how does this happen, for example?
How does how does how does a apparently a perfectly normal appearing white woman end up thinking she's black?
Well, it's clear that this had to start somewhere in the education system.
It has its roots there, I'm doubtless about this.
And also it has its roots in victimology.
This country and the left has made it profitable to become a victim of something.
Primarily a victim of an evil, faceless majority.
If you become a member of a minority, you're automatically a victim, and the victim gets goodies.
The victim gets special consideration, gets special treatment.
The victim is pardoned.
The victim gets excused for all kinds of aberrant weirdo behavior, and instead is the recipient of sympathy.
So it's clear that this is a this is a purposeful and studied move that this woman made.
And she I think she signals it by saying, no, no, no, I am not African American.
Do not tell me that I'm I'm not African American.
I don't identify as African American, I identify as black.
Because she knows she can't pull off African American.
The blood just isn't there.
And have you noticed the same people who are commanding us, demanding of us that we not only embrace, but that we love and support Caitlin Jenner are the same people telling Rachel Dozel would have to go to hell.
Very same people.
Why?
If some guy wants to identify as a woman and we're supposed, yeah, man, or dude, or whatever, right on.
And a woman comes along and says, Yeah, well, I identify as black.
No, you don't, and no, you can't, because you you you can't.
Why not?
I mean, once you change the definition, once you open the door, what what gives you the right to say no to one woman's self-identification crusade and support another guy's self-identification crusade when she becomes a woman, but still has a penis.
As the famous blogger Ace of Spades asked, all of you leftists who are supporting Caitlin Jenner's right to become a woman, would you go out and have sex with her?
Would all you guys go out and have sex with her?
And the answer is, of course not, because you're having sex with another guy.
So is she a woman or not?
No, not there's anything wrong with it, of course.
That's the quality.
Not that there's anything wrong with this, of course.
Of course, not that there's anything wrong with me.
Oh no, there's nothing wrong with anything, you see.
The only thing wrong is he damn Republicans and he won't give up the social issues.
And I'm telling you, the Republicans, conservatives willing to talk about social issues on the last line of defense in the cultural rot that's happening all around us, right in front of our eyes.
I get so sick and tired of the Republicans being accused of social issues.
I've had it happen to me, I've told you the stories.
You gotta take a break here, folks, up against it on time.
Be back after this.
Welcome back.
It's Rush Limbaugh, the cutting edge of societal evolution.
We have a news flash.
Civil rights activist and black role model Rachel Dolezal has resigned her position with the Spokane campaign.
NAA L C P. She announced it on Facebook, according to the Washington Post.
Now you talk about a convoluted thing.
A microcosm.
If anybody cares, if anybody's a little if anybody's curious, a microcosm of some of the genuine screwy, dangerously wrong things happening in American culture today.
I've got everything that you could possibly want to know about this woman.
And how in the world she pulled this off.
It's not, it's not.
Tell you what, the NAA LCP's not in the middle of a shining hour here, folks.
I mean, to be so easily scammed as they were.
So there's nobody with any glory in this.
And of course, Mrs. Clinton.
Mrs. Clinton goes out, reannoces her campaign, re-launches, because the first one nobody noticed what she was doing.
She goes to Roosevelt Island in Manhattan.
Sounds like a robot making this speech with the weird emphasis on weird words in every sense.
It just really did not sound human.
And I mean that.
It sounded robotic.
It sounded, it sounded digital and electronic.
And the idea that Hillary Clinton represents the best.
Do you realize how many no matter where you look, I see time dwindling here.
In the Democrat Party, everybody prominent in that party's a fraud of one thing or another.
I'll explain when we get back.
Oh, yeah, exactly.
I know exactly what's going to happen here.
Just after this first half hour, I know exactly what's going to happen.
What's going to happen is this.
Somewhere on cable news or on some blog, the comments that I have made in my opening half hour today are going to be positioned as extreme and insensitive and cold hearted and all of that, and not compassionate and showing a lack of understanding because I dared break from the orthodoxy of political correctness and conventional wisdom.
You see, you know, Orwell wrote about this.
The consensus opinion can be something that's literally insane.
A consensus opinion can be make it up.
Whatever you want to have a consensus opinion about.
Somebody comes along and via his own eyes looks at us.
This is absurd.
That's not real.
Here's reality.
The one person, courageous and gutless, courageous and gutsy to point out what is real will be branded insane by all the people who have adopted the conventional wisdom on whatever it is we're talking about.
And this is how mass delusion takes place.
This is a fascinating piece I found on this at uh at the Federalist, which I'm I'm gonna find a way to get into before the program ends today, because it's it explains if if you're like me, you've been wondering how in the hell in the last five to ten years has everything been turned upside down in terms of morality, culture, normal, acceptability, and so forth.
It's all upside down.
In ten years, what was it brewing out there for 50 and then it exploded?
Well, this article that I came across attempts to explain it.
And one example I just gave you is uh uh a manifestation of how it works.
The consensus can form on anything.
And if the thing that consensus agrees with is literally wrong and insane doesn't matter, if the consensus, like the drive-by media and the entertainment media and whoever all agree that something's okay and fine and normal, when it isn't, one or two people come along.
No, no, no, no, that's not they are the oddballs, kooks, and weirdos.
And that's exactly what is happening.
This is how uh people who do see reality and who are not swept up in this conventional wisdom, this delusional conventional wisdom.
It's how they are marginalized and portrayed as the oddballs and cooks.
Orwell wrote about it.
It's a studied, practiced technique of statists or party people, people who want to dominate and control everybody else.
And the crazy thing about it is that all these people that are part of the conventional wisdom don't have any idea what's happening to them.
They have no idea that they're actually being controlled and taken over, their freedom is gone.
What they don't realize is they'd better conform or they're not free.
Freedom is defined as agreeing with what everybody demands you agree with, and if you don't, that's when you're in trouble.
And that's where we are.
This is exactly where we are in our culture right now.
So I'm gonna spend some time on this, getting into it as the program unfolds today.
But I have the full call that happened on June 3rd on this program, doesn't take long, goes by lickety split.
This program, not the Spokane NAACP.
This program blew the lid on the fact that there are people out there who self-identify as black.
Let me grab a quick call, chill a coffee, Missouri, Steve.
Great to have you on the EIB network, sir.
You're up first today, and welcome.
Thank you.
Hey, Rush.
Um I'm a little nervous because I've never come out of the closet in any way before, but I wanted you to know, be the first to know in your audience to know that I am actually an African American.
I've been an African American my entire life.
It's been bottled up inside me, and and as of today, I'm no longer going to be Caucasian.
Really?
How old are you?
I'm 38.
38.
You've been living in this prison for well, how old were you when you first learned that you weren't really white?
Must have been about ten.
Ten years old.
Ten years old, you just you knew you weren't white, even though you were.
You weren't white.
You knew you were African American or or black.
So you've lived twenty-eight years in a prison, right?
You haven't been able to be who you are.
Right.
It's just it's been horrible because every day I wake up and I know I'm black and everyone around me is white, and I'm living here in flyover country, and everybody's my small town is basically white.
Well, this has got to be this has to be hell because here you are, you're Caucasian, but you know you're black, but nobody can see that you're black, so nobody can see who you really are.
And you're desperate to be seeing who you really are.
You're desperate to be known for who you really are.
You're not an actor.
You ought to be known for who you are.
You know you're black, but nobody can tell it.
And you go tell people you're black and they think you're nuts, right?
Right.
I mean, I've signed up for like minority grants and that sort of thing, and um you know, they all just laugh at me.
Why?
What's wrong with minor oh because oh, I get it, because yeah, yeah, yeah.
This is very courageous act on your part, I mean, too to be to be African American trapped in a in a in a white body.
That's cruel.
That height of cruelty.
What who could do something like that to another person?
And that's gotta be tough.
I mean, you're signing up for benefits that are available to African Americans, and you're telling them you are one.
You've you knew when you were ten that you were, and and they're denying you, right?
Right.
So what are you doing about it?
Well, I I'm trying to start a movement.
I'm calling you, and I'm I'm telling thirty million people that I'm actually black.
Are you gonna do it on Twitter?
You're gonna have a uh Facebook campaign.
I mean, how are you gonna you're gonna post your I haven't got that far yet?
I'm gonna use thirty million people, you gotta get going.
You're reaching twenty million here, but uh, I imagine a number of them are gonna be kind of skeptical of this.
I'm sure you're gonna face people that that aren't gonna believe you, be skeptical, and think you're just trying to get on a financial gravy train, because they're gonna look at you and they're gonna see, Caucasian, what color's your hair?
Blonde.
Blonde.
And yet you're African American.
In your heart, in your mind.
You know you're black.
Apparently, that's that's the way I felt since I was ten.
You felt African what uh I how what kind what what does it feel like to be African American?
I I can't understand.
It's it's just hard to explain.
I just I I just am not white.
I don't I don't fit in with my family.
I you know, it's um it's do you hate the cops?
Do you have an you have an animus against police officers?
Well, that's been building lately, as I as I see what how other people of my color treat the cops and are and are um and feel towards them.
That's kind of been building in me.
So yeah.
Taking it personally.
Well, you know, you're you're gonna have to prove you're you're gonna have to prove this to people.
I mean, you just can't go out there and say this.
You're gonna have to prove you're black by doing all of the stereotypes like like like Bruce Jenner is doing with women.
I mean, you're gonna you know, Bruce Jenner just didn't say, hey, I'm a woman.
He had to go do the whole whatever to convince people of it.
You're gonna have to.
You can't just say it.
Yeah, and there's it'd be much easier for you if you say you knew you were gay when you were ten, but man, you're really bitten off a big one here now when you say you knew you were black at age ten when you're a blonde-haired Caucasian.
Yeah, and also now I'm in a biracial marriage and my kids are biracial, so I don't know what to do.
What you you're bi you you're married to a white woman.
Married to a white woman.
You're Caucasian, but you're African Americans, your kids are biracial.
You do have a problem.
See, see, we we were first on this.
And that was just a random uh over the transom call that came in again on June 3rd from uh Steve in Chilla Coffee, Missouri.
So I mean Rachel Dolazal's Rachel Dozu Dolezole.
But we had Steve from Chilla Coffee before Rachel Dolazole even thought about making news.
Having more fun than a human being should be allowed to have.
My name's Rush Limbaugh, this the most listened to radio talk show in America.
It's the eponymous Rush Limbaugh program at 800 28282, the email address L Rushmore at EIBnet.com.
Clinton campaign denies access to pool reporter.
It's a political story.
Hillary Clinton campaign denied access to the print pool reporter on Monday, re-igniting reporters' longstanding concerns about the Clinton campaign's commitment to running an open and transparent campaign.
What who in the world thought it was ever going to be that?
What Dunderhead ever believed that it was going to be an open and transparent case.
We're talking about the Clintons here.
It's obvious what the pool reporter needs to do.
Make a donation to one of the many Clinton foundations.
Turns out there may be more of those than we've even heard of, folks.
David Mar Tuscoe, the U.S. political editor for London's Daily Mail, reported showing up at the Hillary campaign's breakfast stop in New Hampshire, only to be told that he would not be allowed to uh pool report the day's event.
For those of you in Rio Linda, this has nothing to do with that story in in McKinney, Texas, a pool down there.
In journalism, when it when they let one reporter in to cover it for every reporter, it's called a pool.
One reporter reports and covers the news for everybody in the in the uh in the press party.
And the person the one reporter let in is called a pool reporter, because he's reporting for the pool, i.e.
the rest of the journalists not allowed in.
And the Clinton campaign didn't let the pool reporter in, which means they didn't let the press in.
If you don't let the pool reporter in, the print pool, then you're not letting anybody in on the on the print side, as it even says here, pool reporters are responsible for sending reports from the trail to the rest of the press corps.
And it's obvious what reporters are going to have to do is pay.
That's how you get access to the Clintons.
They've made it abundantly clear.
Hell's bells, folks.
You see this from the Washington Free Beacon.
Headline from uh June 7th.
This is uh Yeah, I'm split scene.
Clinton donated 100,000 to the New York Times group the same year the paper endorsed her.
I mean, it's in it's incestuous.
I have, by the way, I have a technique.
I have an idea, I have a suggestion for reporters and the media covering the Clintons.
There's a line.
There's a line that could be said after most everything Hillary pledges or claims or states in a campaign speech, a single line that could be used.
I'll demonstrate.
Hillary, in her campaign relaunch, reset, rewind speech yesterday, said that her candidacy was in the name of everyone who has ever been knocked down, but refused to be knocked out.
Ambassador Stevens could not be reached for comment.
Let me give you another example.
Hillary said, You're also not going to see me shrink from a fight.
Ambassador Stevens could not be reached for comment.
If you'll give me the chance, I will wage and win four fights for you.
Ambassador Stevens could not be reached for comment.
We're talking about the presidency here.
We're talking about the next commander in chief.
She's out there making all of these claims, bravery, problem solving and so forth.
Meanwhile, one of her own ambassadors could not be reached for comment because Hillary didn't do any of those things to try to help her save him.
Thank you.
And now, by the looks, it looks like every federal employee has been stripped of every ounce of their privacy because of Obama's fight on their behalf with these Chinese uh the Chinese hackers.
And you know what the danger of that is.
I mean, the Chinese are not going to run identity thefts.
Folks, I mean, I'd love to turn that into a lifelot commercial, but that's the Chicom's are not going to be assuming you're American Expressville running up charges.
They're going to find you and blackmail you.
They're going to find federal employees.
They're going to blackmail or recruit as spies.
That's what the reason they wanted all that information of federal employees is.
They're not a the ChaiComs have more money than you can throw a stick.
They don't need access to Europe.
Visa card or whatever.
That's not why they wanted that data.
They want to recruit spies.
They want to be able to blackmail people.
That's why they hacked in.
Let me grab a quick call here before we uh conclude our first barn storming hour.
It's Vanessa in Vernon, Connecticut.
Uh hi, Vanessa, I'm glad you called.
It's great to have you with us.
Hello.
Well, Mr. Limbaugh, uh, we you said we are relentless in our pursuit of the of the youth.
Uh we got it from you.
You're relentless in your pursuit of the truth.
And so what we've done is we've co-opted the nation by co-opting the youth.
And we we owe a lot to you for that because you were our symbol of persistence and relentless pursuit.
And now what we've done is we've got every mind corrupted through our means that uh uh we've adopted from early on, according to your 35 undeniable truths of life, and your relentless pursuit of the truth.
This is rich.
Come on, we we've got you because we got the youth, Mr. Limbois, and there's no turning this youth around.
Have you looked at them lately?
What you have led by the uh militant uh lesbian movement, and I am one of the uh ladies of the left.
You're familiar with the ladies of the left as the LOL group.
Ladies of the left, right.
Yeah, I know I'm very familiar with that group.
And you are vanquished.
And and we have your youth.
We've c we've co-operated.
You do not yet get them.
You do not yet have the youth.
You might you might no no, you you might think that you do, but you do not have the youth in Toto yet.
But uh really, am I supposed to say am I supposed to be flattered here that you are used me as your model of relentlessness and tenaciousness and unstoppable person?
You're a worthy adversary, and you have been for how many years now?
Well, I don't know.
We've learned from you.
Why does Christina Hoff Summers respect Camille Paglia?
Camille Paglia is a lesbian, is she not?
She is, yes.
Christine Hoff Summers is authored The War Against Boys.
And she has nailed it.
Because that's how we have destroyed you.
We have destroyed the male youth of your country through things like the cuddle puddle.
Google it.
Cuddle puddle, Stuyvesant High School, New York Magazine.
Cuddle January 30, 06 edition.
Sounds vaguely obscene, the cuddle puddle.
Well, you have a young lady who was a uh a true journalist.
You know what true journalists are.
There aren't any anymore.
That's right.
And she took her pad and her her camera and went to Stuyvesant High School in New York City, wrote the cover story on New York magazine in which every teacher and every administrator sent every child to the cuddle puddle with a member of their own sex to disrobe and explore each other anatomically.
Can you hear me now?
Yeah, I hear you.
I've I've been hearing you from the get-go here.
Yes.
Well, that's how we got you.
And now what you have is a whole generation of people like me who are women trapped in men's bodies, and we go through the surgeries that are necessary.
And the hormonal treatments, right?
Sure.
So Bruce Jenner is nothing more than an individual who uh capitalized on it, as you so rightly pointed out last week.
You're not so sure it's not a publicity stunt.
Well, of course it is with him, but with me, I'm the genuine article.
Yeah.
