The Rush Limbaugh program, most listened to radio talk show in America.
Telephone numbers 800-282-2882.
Great to have you here.
I'm going to get back to Ron in Greedy, Colorado here in just a minute.
I uh I'm already getting snerdily.
I'm getting allegations here that I purposely took that call with only five seconds remaining because I don't want to expose the Jesse Ventura conspiracy theories that everybody knows are true.
I didn't know there were any Jesse Ventura conspiracy theories.
So I we're gonna get back here to Iran just a second.
But folks, this this AP story on the Iranian deal.
I have to tell you about this.
You you should know this.
It is a it's a real story, and it turns out that what it really is about is one of these two side deals that we learned about that the IAEA made with Iran above and beyond any deal that we and the the plus five plus six, whatever nations uh that are part of the primary Iranian nuclear deal.
The headline in this APC, and they they're all happy about this.
They're trumpeting, they have an exclusive.
UN to let Iran inspect alleged nuclear work site.
I know it it sounds preposterous, but yet it sounds totally typical of the way things are going.
And it sounds as full of it as everything else in the world today does.
But here are the details.
Iran, in an unusual arrangement, this is from the story.
Iran, in an unusual arrangement, will be allowed to use its own experts to inspect a site that it allegedly used to develop nuclear arms under a secret agreement with the UN agency that normally carries out such work.
According to a document seen by the AP, the investigation of the Parchin nuclear site by the International Atomic Energy Agency is linked to a broader probe of allegations that Iran has worked on atomic weapons.
That investigation is part of the overarching nuclear deal.
The Parchon deal is a separate side agreement worked out between the International Atomic Energy Agency and Iran.
So this is about the side deal.
The AP has finally gotten to see it, and it is confirmation of what we have been saying for some time that Iran is going to inspect itself.
We do not have independent verification.
We do not have the opera.
We cannot go in and inspect.
They were out there touting any time anywhere.
That doesn't exist.
At best, Iran has 24 days.
After a request for an inspection is made, they have 24 days to respond to it.
Now, this is it this is asinine.
This is ridiculous.
Iran gets to inspect its own violation.
What do you think they're gonna do?
You think Iran's gonna call a press conference after investigation and say, you know what, we found out that we have indeed violated the agreement.
Why why does they why do they even need to do an investigation?
Period.
They either know or they don't know that they violated.
It's it's asinine.
The original thing we were told was that Iran was gonna supply samples of the material from the site to the International Atomic Energy Agency, and they were going to inspect.
Which was bad enough.
But this is even worse.
The IAEA is just washing its hands.
Is an alleged violation here, and they're just telling Iran, you guys look into it yourself.
Will you get back to us?
Let us know what you find.
More from this article.
The side deal allows Tehran to employ its own experts and its own equipment in the search for evidence for activities that it has.
This isn't this is absurd.
Listen to this.
They they're they're right.
They think they're on to something.
They got a big exclusive.
They think this is big news.
The side deal allows Tehran to employ its own experts and its own equipment in the search for evidence for activities that it has consistently denied trying to develop a nuclear weapon.
Well, what the hell's bells do we think is going to happen?
The Ayatollah hominy after the inspection is going to say, you know what?
We did try to get a nuclear weapon.
We just found out that we were trying to get a nuclear weapon.
We did not know that we were looking at developing a nuclear weapon.
It was alleged.
We investigated it, and you know what?
We found out that we were.
Now what are you going to do about it?
If it sounds as absurd and ridiculous to you as it is.
It is senseless.
It's so senseless that you can't, it's a parody in and of itself.
It's its own caricature and satire.
Now back to Ron and Greeley, Iowa.
Ron, I really, you know, I got caught.
I looked at the second hand, not the minute hand, and I thought I had much more time than I had.
I didn't mean to be rude like that.
And I'm glad you were able to hold on so you can uh make the point that you wanted to make about Jesse Ventura.
It is your show, Rush.
I'll wait.
Um I just wanted to say that the phenomenon of Trump uh isn't all hundred percent new because of Jesse, and what made Jesse was the debates when they had the Rhino and the Democrat and him, the question asked was about educational spending.
And the Republican guy was going to spend this much on education, and the re and the Democrat was going to spend this much on education.
And they came to Jesse and he said, Well, they spent this much education last year.
I'm gonna find out what they did with that.
And that changed the game right there.
Boom.
They were all scrambling, and for the rest of the debate, it was it was trying to cover um pop no more politics as usual.
You it was on your show.
I there's that never made the the national media.
I remember hearing that on your show.
How long ago was that?
Well, I don't know when Jesse ran, but we did we had him on the show.
I remember the reason we had him on this show.
He was he was confronted by some student.
He was standing in the door of some university doing a James Maddox impersonation or Lester Maddox impersonated.
Some student standing out there demanding this and demanding that, and he said, Why should we pay for it?
If you want to go to school, why don't you pay for it yourself?
And everybody erupted in applause.
And everybody said, Yeah, where's this?
Yeah, so I went, I made a call, we had him on the air the next day, and and uh yeah, he was he was he was who he was, and I told him, I told him we were gonna be watching.
We're gonna be watching, and he you know, he eventually.
He did.
He he eventually I I I it all got to him.
I don't I don't know that Jesse the body actually ever thought he would win.
I yeah, I thought he was cartoonish, and I do think Trump is cartoonish.
And I don't think that our next president's gonna be the man who comments on the menstrual cycle of a of a moderator in a in a debate.
I just don't.
I'm glad for what he's saying.
I'm glad he's coming out there and bringing issues up.
Well, but you but but but Trump said that that's not what he was talking about.
Well, yeah.
Well, okay.
Well, he did.
I'm just telling you what he said.
He said that would that you said that that that's what he called deviant, deviant to think that.
There was people thinking that were deviants, like you.
I guess in Trump's world, you're a deviant out there.
Yeah.
Well, it's just it's just uh um I like I like the political uncorrectness.
I mean, we we need that.
We really need that now.
And and he's not the only one, though.
I I'm a firm Ted Cruz supporter, and and he's been on the cuss of it too.
And but he doesn't get the glory and and the grandiose that Trump does.
Um, nobody does.
Ben Carson, there are a lot of good candidates that are speaking out and speaking their mind, but they just don't get the media attention that Trump does.
Uh what are you saying here?
Are are you are you saying that you are seeing some candidates that are starting to uh sound like Trump or that they're just No no these guys are up front with it early on too but they weren't as as they're not as as as grandiose or how do you want to say it uh in your face.
Yeah.
Yeah.
You know and and they they but they're they're brunt I mean they come back with with what what needs to be said.
They're not being politically correct about anything.
And and but they just don't get the attention that Trump gets.
You think Trump's going to implode like Jesse the Bobby did.
I think Trump's too smooth for that.
He's pretty high on himself already.
Jesse was good with himself when he won.
I don't know if he got too high on himself, but I don't think the governorship is really for him.
Did he win two terms?
Who, Jesse?
Yeah.
I can't remember.
I can't either, so it must not be that memorable.
But he did some great things, and
it was politically uncorrect he he went off for a while but you know what happened let me tell you when the beginning of the end was for Jesse the Bonyventura you have a point I mean you you're saying that that you in effect don't want to elect a showman you want somebody substantive and serious and not somebody's gonna be flying off the handle with what you think are you know kind of questionable comments.
Now, what happened to Jesse DiBatti Ventura, the word leaked out that after he was elected, he was serving in office, that basically what was going on in the governor's mansion was a bunch of pizza parties every night.
And it wasn't being taken very seriously.
The job wasn't.
It was pizza parties here, pizza parties there.
And the voters said, wait a minute now.
We elected this guy.
We expected him to actually do some things based on his campaign.
And he at first tried to, tried to implement some things.
But I ran into him at a golf tournament out in Lake Tahoe some years after he had left office.
And I was on the putting green.
I was talking to Michael Wilbon, who had welcomed me.
It was the year I started ESPN.
I was going to start.
It was the summer.
It was July of whatever that year was.
And I was on the putting green with Michael Wilbon, who came up and welcomed me to ESPN.
But it was good.
Ventura walks out of some building and comes to the putting green and and literally storms up to me and starts asking me some question about government spending rush do you think and I I don't even remember what the question was and I wasn't there for that so I just no no I I don't think that's the case at all.
Well I do I do and he and he started in on something I've I I wish I could remember what it was.
I have one of the greatest memories in the world and I just can't remember this though.
Yeah.
But he was still into it then.
It was not a conspiracy thing.
He was just, I forget what it was.
But, you know, I love all these guys.
I mean, these people, they're funny in their own right.
They're personalities in their own right.
And the fact that occasionally now and then one of them can upset the political apple cart, you just have to love.
Hi, how are you?
Welcome back.
Ladies and gentlemen, the viewers view.
Babes are back.
These are the African-American ladies for now.
for Trump uh Lynette Hardaway and Rochelle Richardson and they have reacted to Trump's immigration plan on their YouTube channel.
He said you know what?
We're gonna have to deport these illegals and I said you know what?
I said, "Now that's how you leave, baby.
We won't have to see Americans holding up signs talking about we'll work for food." That's right.
"Because now there'll be jobs available.
Those people that gets out of prison, they will have jobs to go to.
Those people that don't have a job, they will have jobs to go to." So it sounds like the viewers view African American babes are very excited about Trump's immigration plan because it's going to reopen the American job market for American convicts.
There are going to be jobs to go to when people in prison get out.
Right now there aren't any jobs because they're being taken by...
you just you may doing at the RNC of the DNC they can't believe they're it's the It's the most fun thing to contemplate.
They just can't believe.
Meanwhile, on the Hill.com, there's a story about Jeb's donors are not panicking dash yet.
Oh, we've had a development here, uh, folks.
Um, and let me, we've got audio to support this too, and I need to find this.
We broke the story for you that this uh little community, Huntington Park near Los Angeles had put two illegal aliens on its city council.
We broke that story.
We did a morning update about it.
Here is the uh the latest that Breitbart from yesterday, Francisco Rivera, is a legal immigrant who delivered an impassioned speech to the Huntington Park City Council on Monday night, joining other residents in protest against the decision to appoint two illegal aliens to city commissions.
Francisco Rivera, who is originally from Jalisco, Mexico, told Breitbart News that he is opposed to honoring people who have broken the laws of this country.
He said you shouldn't get special treatment or get rewarded if you break federal law by coming here ille illegally.
We have audio sound bites of all kinds of people upset at what happened.
Citizens outraged that Huntington Park, California has illegal aliens on the city council.
Here is the first.
This is an African American woman bringing up Trump.
Do you know why Donald Trump is popular?
It's because of people like you.
We the people implies we the citizens, not we, the illegal aliens.
They're outraged out there in Huntington Park, California.
They're outraged.
Here's an African American woman saying, You really want to know why Trump's popular?
It's because of people like you putting illegals on the city council.
Here is Francisco Rivera, who is a resident there, who is also upset about it.
I don't think it's fair for the people that come to this country legally and they go through all the process and the paperwork and you know all the things that they gotta do to make, you know, to be legal here in this country, for somebody just to come in illegally and uh, you know, and be in the position that this young man is in, it's kind of like when somebody cuts in line in front of you, it's just not right.
You know, we are a country of immigrants, but do we really want to be a country of illegal immigrants?
See, this is not I'm telling you folks, it isn't, we're not talking about illegal immigration.
I'll tell you what is happening here.
These people at Huntington Park on the city council, I don't know if it was one person that made this decision or a couple of them that put the illegals on on a couple of sub-councils.
But in order to do it, they think that the illegals are victims.
This is what's really upside down about all this.
I mean, there's a lot of this that's upside down.
But because of the anti illegal immigration chatter in this country, a lot of bleeding hearts think that the illegals have become victims.
And there is a lot of sympathy for them.
They are considered to be under assault, and so we're gonna be nice.
We're gonna show that we care, and we're gonna show we have compassion.
So we're gonna put them on the city council.
And they're getting a taste of what the citizens out there think about it.
It's outrageous.
It's ridiculous.
It doesn't make it first place, they're not victims of anything.
And all of this sympathy is not really warranted here.
But I this is just another example of many that are happening here all over the country, serving to illustrate what actually is a majority point of view in this country.
And it is not what we are treated to in the news every day.
It's not what the Democrat Party tells us.
We are being governed.
We are being bullied by a genuine minority that does not believe in anything but laws to force people to conform and behave the way they want them.
They don't believe in trying to reach people's hearts and minds and persuade them.
They don't want to have to convince people that their way is the best.
They want to force people into behaving the way they want.
And what we're seeing is that there is a big majority of people who are not happy with this, and it's a positive, folks.
It means we've not lost the country.
And I never have thought we've lost it, by the way.
Here's one more sound bite from Francisco Rivera.
You know what?
I could honestly say I think it was about time that somebody literally would stand up and say that because I feel I have seen totally entire Latino communities going down the drain because people that come to this country illegally, they have no passion for their communities.
I mean, they spray paint graffiti, and it's just very, very sad.
I think it was about time that somebody literally say that.
I guess this will really wake us up.
He's talking about Trump.
He's talking about Trump's immigration plan.
He's in favor of it.
Now, what is Hispanic?
We're told a Republicans have to pander.
We're told Republicans have to pander to the illegals in order to win the presidency, get the Hispanic vote.
Who is it showing up in opposition to this?
Hispanics showing support for Trump.
Once again, teachable moments.
A man, a legend, a way of life.
Ladies and gentlemen, there's a story out there that is incorrect.
You may have seen it.
Ned Yost is the manager of the Kansas City Royals.
He was given a gift by MLB.com, Major League Baseball, for managing the American League team in the All-Star Game.
They gave him an Apple Watch.
And they caught him wearing it last night during the game, and a report surfaced from the Kansas City SCAR that he was not allowed to wear the Apple Watch during the game.
And it was it was the report didn't actually say that, but it was easy to conclude that the way it was reported.
It was a series of tweets.
And the reason that the Major League Baseball, the NFL, none of them allow you to use a smartphone during games because it's a communications device where you could get secret signals.
You could have somebody in the stands looking at the other team, texting the manager to do things.
They prohibit the use.
In fact, the general manager for the Cleveland Browns has been suspended for first four games of the season for texting the head coach.
From the press box last season.
His name is Ray Farmer.
Well, it turns out Ned Yost said, wait a minute.
This watch is worthless unless it's in contact with my phone.
And my phone is back in the locker room of my office.
This watch is nothing but a clock.
I can't do anything with this watch because it is a total slave to the phone, which is true for now.
When they come out with the Watch OS 2, which is going to be either next month or October, then that's going to change a little bit.
The watch will have its own independence.
It'll be able to have its own Wi-Fi connections, and then certain apps will be able to run independently being tethered to the iPhone.
But right now, the Apple Watch can't do much without it can't receive messages.
It can't basically can't do anything other than tell time.
The heart rate monitor works and this kind of thing, but nothing that would violate any law or rule in the NFL or the Major League Baseball.
So he's going to be able to continue to wear his Apple Watch for now.
But it was, it was reported that he wasn't permitted to.
And I just I just wanted to correct that.
Also, I got an email out of the clear blue.
Somebody asking me when I think college tuition is going to become cheaper and more in line with uh families' ability to afford it.
And let I hate to be the bearer of bad news For those of you interested in this, because it is that time where tuition is due at many universities and colleges all across the fruited plain.
And I'm I'm folks, I'm just going to tell you, as long as there is a student loan program, there is no need for tuition to ever do anything other than go up.
Particularly with the student loan program run by the federal government.
The Obama administration took it over early on in Obama's first term.
So the f for all intents and purposes, the federal government runs the student loan program.
The left is is not going to this is, I think, very hypocritical on their part.
They run around again.
They say they stand up for the little guy.
They're looking out for the little guy.
And they think everybody should get an education.
Everybody.
It's the requirement, everybody must have.
You can't expect to get ahead in life unless you get an education.
They pump it, they promote it.
Everybody thinks it.
Every family, every parent wants their kid to go to college, wants them to graduate.
Without that, their future is considered dim and limited.
Well, that's fine and dandy, but the very people pushing college are the people profiting from it.
And universities are the indoctrination camps for the Democrat Party.
As such, the people who work there are valued employees.
University presidents, the faculty, the uh the uh student assistants, teacher assistance and all this, these people they're they're not gonna have their tenure cut, they're not gonna have their salaries cut.
It isn't gonna get cheaper to go to college.
Again, look at it as a as a as a very, very loosely structured financial scheme.
The left wants their valued employees to be paid a lot so that they stay there.
They give them tenure so that they will stay there.
They pay them decently so they will stay there.
Where do they get the money for this?
Federal government.
Student loan program.
The federal government is sponsoring and paying for higher education via the student loan program.
Oh, and the athletic programs.
For all the talk about student athletes, the hell's bells with that.
Just get the best players in there.
Who cares if they're criminals or not, as long as the stadium sells out every Saturday.
College basketball and football programs are responsible for who knows what percentage of the annual operating budget of every major university.
So nothing's gonna change.
Tuition is going to continue to rise either with inflation or even at uh at a higher rate.
Because there's always going to be the money to pay for it.
Student loan program.
And you are ultimately paying for it the rest of your life.
If you graduate or not, you have to repay the loans at some point.
And Obama may come along and forgive your loan.
The Democrat Party may forgive your loan if you do things the right way, like vote for them or what have you.
It's pernicious.
Along the same lines, Janet Yellen, I think, whoever it is that's running the Federal Reserve these days, they're starting to say that they're out of weapons.
They're out of ammo.
They've had zero interest rates for all these years, and now there's a Fed governor, a member of the board, the Federal Reserve, the St. Louis Bank, who says that quantitative easing cannot be said to have had any positive impact on the economy.
I don't know how long this guy is going to have his job at the Fed Bank in St. Louis.
There has been a total of 4.5 trillion dollars printed and funneled essentially to Wall Street in the quantitative easing program.
Quantitative easing is printing money and cycling it through the securities markets.
Four and a half trillion dollars, and we still have a horse manure economy.
And now they're saying it didn't have any effect on the economy at all.
No question about it.
In fact, it may have had a negative impact on the economy.
You can't, I mean, the flooding of the money supply like that.
I'll tell you, it's asinine.
So much of what's happened in the last eight years is just as I think people know it.
I think so many more people, general public know all of this and are fed up with all of it.
And they're fed up with their intelligence being insulted, they're fed up being lied to, they're fed up with protected favored interests, somehow being guaranteed against economic calamities, such as four and a half trillion dollars funneled into the securities markets, which is a broad-based market.
It's more than just stocks, it's uh any number of things that happen on on Wall Street.
So the the outrage that people are expressing and that everybody's seeing it, the establishment is befuddled by their lack of understanding it is rooted in a total ignorance of just what the American people have figured out and have been watching happen all these years, and none of it making any sense.
From TARP to the bailouts, emergency status have to do it in 24 hours, or the world's financial crisis blows up, or the financial system blows up and it didn't.
You see this story?
This is this is the uh the New York Post.
I love the headline.
Third world diplomats say New York City is grosser than the third world.
Diplomats from third world countries say the area around the United Nations is crawling with more vagrants than in their own impoverished countries in the third world.
America is one of the richest countries in the world, and New York is one of the richest cities, but there are more homeless people here than there are in Gambia, said that nation's attache, whose African nation ranks 182nd out of 194 global economies.
Back with more after this.
Seriously, folks, how bad do things have to be to have members of the United Nations embarrassed about your city.
I mean, my goodness.
And here's folks, you're not gonna hear this on the nightly news.
You're not gonna hear it on the evening news.
You're not gonna hear about it on the morning news, you're not gonna hear it about it on the noon news, you're not gonna hear about it on the internet.
Imbuso Mandela, a grandson of Nelson Mandela, was charged with the rape of a 15-year-old girl in Johannesburg, South Africa.
Imbuso Mandela is 24, allegedly raped the victim in a restaurant restroom, and made a brief appearance in Johannesburg magistrate's court earlier this week.
He has not entered a plea.
He'll remain in custody until Friday when a bail application will be made.
The reason you won't hear about it is it did not happen on a college campus.
Here's Jack in San Francisco.
Jack, welcome to the EIB network.
Great to have you with us.
Hello.
Hello, Russia.
I've been listening to you since the 90s, and I want to thank you for what you've been doing for America.
I appreciate that.
Thank you very much, sir.
I'm 100% with you on this invasion issue.
Uh I've been watching Trump be hammered over the legal entanglement that he would uh suffer uh in trying to uh deport the illegals.
Uh they keep saying it'll be a long due process problem.
The fact is is that I know for sure that 15 or 20 years ago, the IRS used to send out no match letters when somebody uh with an employer sent in uh Social Security contributions with a social security number that didn't match the uh person who claimed to be working.
Uh they'd have not done nothing about that so far.
Uh but it'd be very simple.
Uh if an employer got a no-match letter uh with uh because some somebody's Social Security number did not match uh their name, uh the IRS could tell them that uh if they didn't if they failed to re rectify the situation, uh that they would be fined.
And if they did it a second time, they'd go to jail.
If they did that, employers all across this country would stop hiring and they would let fire illegals would wouldn't would simply deport themselves.
We wouldn't.
Well, if maybe.
But remember there's a big hammock out there.
It's called a safety net, but it's a hammock.
And if for anybody look, we have ninety-four million Americans not working, and they're all eating, and many of them have a cell phone and plan, and a lot of them are watching streaming video.
But I get I get your point.
And even now, there are occasionally, you know, the government will make a big show of finding an employer and deporting 10, 15 people or whatever, to make it look like this is an ongoing thing.
But yeah.
That's that's why I asked he's he's relating, he's he's dealing with a question I posed earlier.
Can you imagine what America would look like if we had not had this invasion since 1986?
If there were not the 20 million or whatever the real number is illegals here.
Can you imagine how different California would look?
The overall job market, the overall economy.
Try looking at it that way sometime.
Just in your spare moments, just stop and think about how things would be different.
And it's big.
It's substantially different is the way things would be.
Ah, my friends, it's more fun than a human being should be allowed to have.
It really is.
We live in exciting times.
And despite what everybody may think or may think we uh we're I think on the cusp here of a profound opportunity.
Anything can change overnight.
Make me change my opinion on that, but as we sit here today, it's uh exciting times.
I'm glad to have a chance to be here with you each and every day to discuss all this with you and have a chance to change your mind and heart.
