Time Text
Welcome to today's edition of the Rush 24-7 podcast.
Greetings, folks.
Great to have you with us.
Rush Limbaugh, the EIB network.
You believe it's already October 1st.
You know why it's hard for us here, folks, to believe it's October?
Because the heat index every day is still 95-97 degrees.
And it just doesn't jive with October the first.
I mean, it's tough to believe we've already had three weeks of the NFL.
Anyway, Steelers Ravens and I just checked the forecast for Pittsburgh.
It's 57 degrees there now, and it's going to be around 60, 64 for game time.
Michael Vick, Michael Vick playing tonight for the Pittsburgh Steelers.
The Ravens are going to unleash the dogs, and they're going to try to bury this guy in the pocket, keep him in the pocket.
He doesn't get out of the pocket as much as uh as he used to because he's gotten older out there.
But three Raven starters are down tonight, too.
So it's it's this this is not the rivalry it used to be Rothless Burger Nut playing, but still it's the NFL, still the Steelers.
It's still Thursday night, still October 1st.
Unbelievable.
Great to have you.
Telephone number 800-282-2882 and the email address Lrushbo at EIBNet.com.
So we have a real hurricane out there, folks.
Yes, sir, we have a real hurricane.
And from uh, I guess yesterday, maybe the night before yesterday, all day yesterday, and then up until 11 o'clock today.
Just a little over an hour ago, the excitement was palpable in the drive-by media.
The drive-by media would bring in on their weather experts during what would normally be standard news broadcast time.
And there was the track.
And the track had it hitting right there at Washington, D.C., maybe somewhere off Maryland somewhere, but it was gonna be a disaster.
Ten inches of rain minimum.
Not to mention the winds, it'll be a category three hurricane before it gets to the east coast.
And they were gearing up for yet another man-made global warming disaster, and then the National Hurricane Center issued their 11 a.m. track, and it looks like it's going to stay offshore.
Foiled again, ladies and gentlemen.
The global warming crowd foiled yet again, as our official climatologist here at the EIB network, Roy Spencer observed.
Yet and this is true.
This is that if the hurricane had hit the East Coast, we would hear nothing about it.
Global warming, that's all we would hear about.
But now that it doesn't hit the East Coast, if it doesn't, if it just stays out to sea, we won't hear a thing about anything.
We won't hear a thing about the hurricane, we won't hear a thing about global warming.
Only if it hit land, and only if it caused some damage.
Only if there were well, what'd you get with hurricanes?
Lots of rain, lots of wind.
That's standard operating procedure for hurricanes.
If that had happened, global warming, global warming, climate change, climate change.
It might have been enough to launch Al Gore's presidential campaign.
You know, he's teetering back and forth.
Latest polling data on that says that Joe Biden would beat everybody.
Have you seen that?
Biden would beat everybody.
I mean, not just in the Democrat primary, but beat everybody.
Which it's just it's getting absurd, folks.
The whole keeping track of this stuff on a daily basis is an exercise in staying sane.
Give you an example.
Here's the headline from Breitbart.
White House promotes a safe place to pee for transgender community.
Meanwhile, we've got whatever is going on is going on in Syria and in the Middle East.
And Obamacare exchanges are having trouble, co-ops falling apart left and right.
The jobs situation in this country is a disaster.
The immigration system is a disaster.
The latest controversy is over refugees pouring into the country.
Donald Trump, by the way, is weighed in on this, as has Dr. Carson.
The soundbites of that coming up.
Trump is back to being on fire over this.
And what do we get from the White House?
The White House is reaching out to the transgender community for a list of things that its members want as they follow their lifestyle choices.
Well, it's obvious here, ladies and gentlemen, this White House has their priorities in order.
The initiative is launched with the help of White House chief data scientist, DJ Patel, who expressed concern that there is very little data of what the transgender community needs from the government.
Why does the transgender community need anything from the government?
I mean, why does anybody need, I mean, like this places to pee?
Pattil helped launch the initiative in order to quantify the desires from the transgender community so that the federal government could reach out with assistance.
Now you have to ask yourself something.
What percentage of the population is transgendered?
Anybody want to take a wild guess just a stab in the dark at this?
I think it is so small you can't even assign it a number.
You can't even assign it one-tenth of one percent.
It's that tiny.
So what's going on here?
I mean, if you're gonna reach out to the transgender community, oh, speaking of which, the drive-by's are fit to be tied over the Pulp meeting with Kim Day.
I told you this was gonna happen.
It has happened, and the Vatican, the story from the Venice is that they're not denying it.
Not that they're confirming it, but they're not denying it.
Why would the Vatican have problems admitting that they met with somebody to discuss religious freedom?
Okay, so in the same vein here, whatever the percentage of the country that's transgender is, what in the name of Sam Hill's going on?
If you want to do something with the transgender community, do it, but why make a big hullabaloo press release, something that engenders an entire news story about it?
What could you possibly be hoping to achieve?
I mean, there's an answer to this.
I have the answer to every question I ask for the most part.
I'm just throwing it out there to kind of share with you my train of thought on this.
Well, yeah, inven it's it's more than inventing a crisis, though.
Uh legacy points, yeah, but but it's yeah, it's it's inventing a crisis, it's legacy points as Obama wanted to be the first president to ever focus on transgenders and where they can urinate and defecate.
I mean, that's what we're talking about here.
Asking them, where do you people want to urinate and defecate?
Your government's here to help.
The uh let's see, this is this is uh this this is uh this is from an actual tweet.
It's an announcement of this historic outreach posted on Twitter.
The Trans Needs Project grew out of the 2015 White House LGBTQ Tech Summit, as well as conversations with federal officials on just how little data there is about the transgender transgender community and its needs.
Why do you think there's so little data?
There's so few of them.
Anyway, moving on.
The project's current focus is a needs assessment and a listening campaign to understand how the federal government can better serve the transgender community, and aims to provide the White House with recommendations as well as directions for further study.
How can the federal government better serve transgender people?
Discrimination, health, justice, documents, education, employment, speak your needs, trans needs, and we are here to help.
The next message from the account reads, this jobs health care housing a safe place to pee.
It's your time to be heard.
Share your trans needs, reads a message on the Twitter account calling for everybody to weigh in.
White House promoting this is this is from a growing list of things we once would have made up to illustrate absurdity by being absurd.
This is something we used to make up and laugh about and joke about, and now here it has become a rabbity.
And you might be saying, come on, Russia, this kind of odd stuff happens all the time.
Why are you spending so much time on it?
There's a reason for this, and it goes back to the question why in the world, even if you're gonna have this transgender outreach, why ballyhoo it like this?
Look, can I give you the real answer?
It is indeed about crisis invention and it's about legacy, but it's in your face is what this is.
This is Obama himself, basically flipping the bird to Middle America and to fly over country and the bitter clingers.
This is Obama basically just getting in everybody's face and saying, screw you.
This is exactly what this is.
This is as in your face as anything else that this man has done and his administration.
No question about it.
Now another companion story here from Breitbart headline video of mom giving first hormone shot to transgender teen goes viral.
The video of a mother giving her young teenager the first doses of hormones needed to continue a transgender transformation has gone viral.
The video first posted on YouTube explained that the teen has been waiting two and a half years for doctors to approve the hormone treatments and has been waiting months for a readiness letter to be sent to doctors in Chicago.
This boy is now 14.
They have been trying to transgender this kid for two and a half years.
That is to say, since he was only 11 and a half.
They have been trying.
His mother has been trying to transgender him.
The mother went on to note that the teenager had no idea on a timeline of when it would actually happen.
Mom picked up the hormone medicine when the teen was at school and sprang the news later that evening while recording the teen's reactions.
The mother wrote, Sorry, I had to stop recording because we were the blubbering, sobbing fools.
The video was picked up by Buzzfeed, soon went viral.
Over two million people have seen it in three days.
This mother told Buzzfeed the incident was the most pivotal turning point in the child's life, and we both knew it.
She also said that if there's any negative backlash, it'd be worth it to help even one child.
The world has gone mad.
It is official.
So you what do you think happened here?
I don't know specifically in this case, but take a look at social media and all of media.
And there's one thing that has, well, there's more than one.
Something has become patently obvious over recent years, and that is this singular quest for fame that everybody in this country has.
And particularly young people, particularly teenagers, preteens, on into late teenager and the early 20s, they're obsessed with becoming famous.
They visit these social websites and they they they vomit everything about themselves.
They want everybody to know who they are.
They want to have followers, they want fame.
They think life is what they see on entertainment tonight in the red carpet.
And the parties on the yachts in the Mediterranean or wherever they take place.
And most recently, what has been big in the news?
Caitlin Jenner.
Caitlin Jenner and the whole process of transgender, and how has it been portrayed?
With applause?
Accolades.
If you're somebody out there that desperately seeks fame, and we have a copycat society, who's to know?
Some mother out there watching all this, hey, you know what?
My kid could get famous.
All I've got to do is turn him into a transgender.
Or what have you?
Anything like this could could happen.
This is the danger of this kind of stuff with media as omnipresent as it is.
But even at all that still, the White House is now promoting safe place to pee campaign for the transgender community.
What does that even mean?
Are regular restrooms not safe?
Can't believe even discussing this.
And then here's one more story that may dovetail with this.
UK Mirror, Stephen Hawking, the brilliant physicist, says that advanced aliens could conquer and colonize our planet.
If aliens visit us, the outcome could be much like when Columbus landed in America, which didn't turn out well for the Native Americans.
Are you kidding me?
This guy reputed to be one of the smartest people ever to have lived.
He's a Brit, and he's sitting there warning that aliens visiting us from outer space would be akin to the discovery of America by Columbus.
Such advanced aliens would perhaps become nomads looking to conquer and colonize whatever planets they can reach.
Based on the news just so far today, I'm convinced the aliens are already here, folks.
Benjamin Netanyahu at this moment addressing the General Assembly of the United Nations, saying that Israel will not allow Iran to go nuclear.
Not gonna stand there any longer and put up with it.
We are not gonna allow, he says his word, we are not gonna allow a genocidal regime, a free and clear path to weapons to wipe out Israel.
We're not gonna now that might awaken Obama from whatever he's focused on here on where transgenders urinate and defecate.
Which seems to be the White House focus of the day, which is why I am convinced that aliens have already landed here and are living amongst us.
Aliens have a place to pee.
Aliens don't need to pee.
See, this is the thing, people don't aliens don't need to do anything to humans.
Aliens are so much smarter.
The aliens are so advanced.
We are we are mere singular organisms compared to the superiority of the aliens.
That's why they can disguise themselves among us.
Yeah.
So that's going to arouse Obama.
That's uh Obama's gonna so I have a theory about the Middle East.
I think all this stuff in Syria.
I think he sends Kerry out there to huff and puff and act like it it matters, but I don't think he really cares.
I think I think Obama has one singular focus in the Middle East, and that's Iran.
And I I hate to say this, but I'm just basing it on what I observe combined with my intelligence, guided by experience, and I'm I'm sadly convinced that what Obama's mission is here is to make sure that Iran does indeed go nuclear and is able to dominate that region.
I d I I don't know how you can conclude otherwise.
Uh we've gone out of our way to accommodate this regime since Obama assumed office.
It's and again, I think that's more than legacy building.
There's something um I don't know, it's it's frightening to me.
Something scarier than that going on.
Anyway, folks, welcome back.
It's great to have you, Rush Limbaugh here with the three-hour broadcast excellence excursion.
The uh Hillary Clinton email, I got a note from a friend of mine last night, reeking of frustration.
I mean, I could smell the frustration in the guy's email.
Because every day, and today is no different.
We have story after story of all of the so-called undoubtedly classified emails that she was just passing on.
My friend used to be in the Navy.
He used to have a security clearance, sufficient to come in contact and see and deal with classified documents.
And he said, anybody in the world knows what's classified by virtue of the contents.
They don't need to be marked.
He said, When's the indictment coming?
When's something gonna happen?
I mean, how long can this go on?
And my answer was she's a Democrat, and nothing ever happens to Democrats.
The Democrats don't go after their own, and the Republicans stopped going after Democrats sometime in the 1990s.
So what do you want to call it just the system has been corrupted or taken over or what have you?
I think if you want to get Hillary, if you hope Hillary is held accountable, then you better hope Biden gets in the race.
If Biden gets in the race, then that might trigger action from Obama's DOJ to stop this drip, drip, drip, drip, drip, and lower the boom on her.
We'll have to wait and see.
Time will tell it, it won't be long.
Happy to make the complex understandable.
It's what we do every day here at the EIB network.
Happy to have you with us, my friends.
Just moments ago at the United Nations, Benjamin Netanyahu was tearing into the UN for not objecting to giving Iran the nuclear bomb.
Now half of the UN is boycotting his speech.
Half the place is not even there.
I'm a little surprised Obama's letting U.S. delegates attend, but they're there.
And uh Netanyahu just put on his diplomat cap and praised Obama and talked about the common ground that we share and the objectives that we have.
And at that moment, the camera cut the three members of the U.S. delegation sitting there, and they were staring.
They didn't look happy, they didn't look unhappy.
They just looked like they had to be there.
Netanyahu did what he did.
He said what he had to say, but he this was after he had assured everybody that no matter what else, Israel is not going to just sit idly by any longer while genocidal regimes ramp up with uh with nuclear weapons.
Now, this is going to have an impact.
Netanyahu's words are going to have an impact, and my guess is, I don't know how soon we'll see evidence of it, but Russia.
Putin is now going to have to, I think, take Netanyahu at his word.
And if he does, he's going to be sending more anti-aircraft batteries and anti-missile defenses to Iran, just like they've done in Syria.
Even though ISIS doesn't have any planes or missiles, we still have sent those kinds of weapons and deterrents into Syria.
And by the way, there's all kinds of controversy over what we reported yesterday here on this program that Putin did not bomb ISIS targets, but instead bombed militant, well, I should say moderate Syrian rebels who are our allies.
The uh uh Russia's denying it, the U.S. is denying it, everybody's denying it, but if you look closely, you can find that it did indeed happen.
And it continues to play out this way, with the administration just not appearing to be in the game, where all of this is concerned.
And we go to Mrs. Clinton and the email scandal, so many people continue to be frustrated.
When is something gonna happen?
How can there be no indictment?
The woman has obviously trafficked in classified documents.
One of the stories here from an unfazed associated press, emails, Russia-linked hackers tried to access Clinton's server.
You know how they did it?
They tried to do it via a phishing attack.
PH, ISHING.
Russian-linked hackers tried at least five times to get into Hillary Clinton's private email account while she was Secretary of State.
This according to some emails that were released uh yesterday.
Now it's not known if she fell for the attacks.
You know, a lot of people do.
Uh, I'll give you a good example of what a fishing attack is.
Let's say that you have uh, let's say you have an Apple ID and you buy things on the Apple store.
The hacker will put together what looks to be like an official email from Apple.
It won't be, but to the casual observer, It'll look like it's from Apple.
And it will say that something has happened to their data file, and they need to click on the link in the email to confirm their identity so that everything remains okay.
And when you click on that link, you are not sending anything to Apple.
You are allowing the hackers access to your computer and potentially access to your data.
Now it depends on Mrs. Clinton's sophistication in this stuff, whether she knows what a fishing attack is.
The attempt that was made against Mrs. Clinton, are you ready for this?
The hackers tried to convince Hillary that she had some speeding tickets outstanding.
And that she had to click on a link in the email to make the problem go away.
Here's the details in the story from the AP.
Russia linked hackers tried at least five times to pry into Hillary's private email account while she was Secretary of State.
Now, the headline of this story is emails.
Russia linked hackers tried to access Clinton's server.
The earlier headline for this same story was AP can is is changing the headline here.
The earlier headline was Russian hackers tried five times to break into Hillary's email server.
And then they decided to dial that back a little bit.
And the people at Slate.com tried to spin the story for their readers, low information Hillary voters, lazy hackers was the headline at Slate.
Lazy hackers tried to crack Hillary Clinton's email using poorly crafted speeding ticket gambit.
It was just a phishing attack.
I suspect that there have been Mrs. Clinton is not going to fall for a speeding ticket.
She doesn't drive.
She's not going to fall for a speeding ticket trick.
She's not going to fall for a parking ticket trick.
She probably would fall for some kind of fishing attack.
Some of them are very seductive.
And if the if the hacker happens to touch on a subject that's really important, like let's say you have uh one American Express card, and a hacker puts together a very, very authentic looking email from American Express, and the email tells you that they're about to close your account because something is is uh is is a mess and you haven't responded.
And the last thing you want is for your Amex card to be canceled.
So you click on that link and you have no idea what you're doing.
If you here there's a way to find out real quickly, folks, whether you're a victim of a phishing attack or whether somebody's trying it on you.
Just go to the email address from the sender and click on it.
And find out what the real sending email address is.
Another thing to do, like if you have uh multiple email addresses, and your credit cards are mixed in terms of which email address make sure the phishing or or the uh apparently authentic looking email is sent to the right account, the right email address.
I mean, there's any number of ways to find these things.
You get to the point where you eventually you believe none of it, because you quickly learn that nobody you do business with sends emails like this.
They don't tell you you need to click this link to save your account, to save your data, or what have you, or we can't find you, we're missing a crucial piece of information about you.
Please click this link and solve the people fall for it left and right, though.
That's why they continue to happen.
And they tried this with Mrs. Clinton, supposedly in parking tickets, and I don't believe that, because anybody in their right mind would know she doesn't drive.
She's not going to get moved by parking tickets, but they could find something.
I don't know what it would be, but they could find something.
What are the odds?
You know, Mrs. Clinton does not strike me as a sophisticated high-tech gizmo person.
She's out there saying, Well, you know, I didn't know I could have more than one account and one device.
I didn't know.
I don't know whether that's true or not, but I can just tell you, you know, we tech wizards can spot neophytes.
We tech wizards, we know when people aren't tech wizards.
Like, for example, in my case, the Apple Watch.
Very few of my friends would I even recommend it to.
They don't care enough about the tech to take the time to learn it.
And I don't want to have to take the time to teach them.
We wizards just know this stuff.
And so when you look at Mrs. Clinton and you hear her talk about this, it's clear, Isabel, she's a neophyte.
She has people in the background that take care of all the stuff.
She's one of the people, she'll get an iPhone and two or three people will set it up.
She doesn't care.
She's not interested in how it works.
She doesn't know about backing up or restoring any of that.
She doesn't know how her pictures stay on the phone or where they go.
She just wants the phone to work.
So other people do this.
But when she's sitting down at her email account and she's looking at incoming emails, a phishing attack, she's the exact kind of person that the right phishing attack could work on.
The bottom line is I don't think there's any question she's been hacked, and I don't think there's any question that it's happened.
Major American enemies have been able to hack her system.
And now all this classified data going back and forth that she, well, it wasn't marked, I didn't know.
BS.
She knew, and as the Clintons always do, you roll the dice on not getting caught.
And if you're the Clintons and the Democrats, you roll the dice, even if you do get caught, you're pretty confident nobody's going to do anything about it.
It's a whole different thing for Republicans.
If there were a Republican former Secretary of State when all this was swirling around, we'd already be talking jail time.
We would have had an indictment long ago.
There would have been an in-depth investigation over just what secrets were learned by which government, by which country.
The person would have been humiliated and destroyed, no future remaining because every ounce of credibility and integrity would have been destroyed.
With Hillary, we get this never ending drip drip drip drip every week, every day, a new revelation, but no action taken whatsoever on the criminal side.
No effort that's public anyway to find out just what kind of compromises there have been in our national security because of what she did, because she's a Democrat.
She gets a pass.
They just don't throw themselves under the bus.
They don't indict each other unless there's always exceptions.
Bob Menendez.
Bob Menendez, what is he?
He's not a he's not a big amnesty guy, right?
And they caught him uh doing some things with a donor down in the Dominican Republic.
So they indicted him, even though he's a Democrat.
It happened, Bob Torricelli, it happens, but it's rare.
The Democrats know that they are not going to be held accountable on things like this.
They know the media is not going to go after them.
They know the Department of Justice.
In fact, it's not just that they know that nobody's going to go after them.
They also know the circle is going to be built around them.
The wagons are going to be circled, they're going to be protected.
Because the last thing that's going to be allowed to happen is for the Republicans to succeed in embarrassing, humiliating, and perhaps even forcing out of public life any prominent Democrat.
They will never allow that to happen.
Now these phishing emails, they're also called spam.
And we know that Hillary didn't delete them because they're part of what she sent to the State Department.
And we know that because they're part of what the State Department has released.
She would have deleted these emails if she thought it was spam or worse.
Instead, her staff even sent these emails, these phishing, these these call it spam, even sent these to the State Department.
So she thought they were real.
Or if she didn't think they were real, she wasn't alarmed enough by them to get rid of them.
Even the AP is admitting if Hillary's server had even had commercially available antivirus software, she wouldn't have seen those phishing.
Your average spam filter will get those.
She probably didn't even turn on a junk filter.
Otherwise, that stuff would not have shown up.
You can train an application, your program to trash all that stuff before you even see it.
Folks, just to give you an idea, my system here gets rid of 3,000 on average spam emails during the show.
I have an app.
I'm not going to tell you what it is.
I don't want to, but it it just hoovers every bit of spam coming into every email account I get it racks up 3,000 every show.
And over the course of the day, it's probably 5,000 total.
That's how much of the stuff in she didn't delete it.
It was on her server.
And she didn't have a program that deleted it, which meant that the security that she had on this server and her email program was negligible.
She didn't even know how to use a fax machine.
But because that spam was on her server that got sent to the State Department that was released, which is why we know it's there, she didn't even have any antivirus software.
I I just I there's there's no indication whatsoever.
This woman or anybody working with her had any idea what they were doing.
And that's, I think maybe she's trying to hide behind the fact.
Well, the emails weren't marked as class fine, so I didn't know.
You know that's what I think Hillary does really well.
When she finds herself in the middle of a mess, she plays girl 101.
Innocent damsel.
Yeah, I didn't know.
I just I just I just want to hint and reply and take care of business.
I didn't know.
I didn't know that you can have more than one device and one account at the same time.
And don't you feminazes get mad at me because everybody knows what I'm talking about.
And Trump, you know, Trump's getting a little frustrated on this too.
He for weeks has been thinking, saying, that he doesn't think she's gonna survive the campaign because she's gonna be indicted.
Anyone else would have been.
And if not indicted, charged with something.
This is deadly serious stuff that's happened here.
Former Secretary of State trafficking in all of this that was not protected, and the evidence keeps mounting up from the Hill.com Trump Clinton email controversy terrible for the country.
He says it's hard to believe this on Fox and Friends uh this morning.
It's hard to believe she's even talking about running for president, Trump said.
You wouldn't believe it's possible after what she's done.
What she did's totally illegal.
The whole thing is terrible for our country.
And then he repeated that he thinks they probably will not indict her.
Talking about the FBI investigation of the server.
He said the attorney generals from New York, and I believe the attorney general's a good friend of Hillary's.
It's pure politics and it's Democrats, and he is exactly right.
My point exactly, they're Democrats.
Nothing's gonna happen to her.
Precisely because of that.
It's impossible for them to break the law.
That's how corrupted our whole system has become with these people in power.
Grab audio soundbite number two.
Here's the drive-by media, finally themselves maybe getting a little frustrated because now they are incorporating the phrase popularized by me on this program.
Do you see the latest round of emails as sort of another trip trip?
This is the drip-drip.
We're gonna see a drip-trip trip.
It just feels like drip drip drip.
It keeps dripping.
The slow drip of emails.
You've had this drip-drip trip.
You're gonna have a drip drip trip.
This is a drip-drip-drip.
Is a drip drip drip that will not let us.
Is it amazing how this happens?
Everyone, everybody in the drive-bys, no matter what it is, whether it's gravitas or whatever, they all end up seemingly get a memo with the approved drive-by media descriptive phrase or sentence of the day that's to be used.
In this case, it's been stolen from me.
And I realize that many of you are probably saying, well, you stole it from somebody else, because I saw drip drip drip long before you yes, but nobody said it the way I did.
I mean, there were a lot of people out there with a drip drip, but nobody said drip drip drip drip drip drip drip dip drip and made a big show of it.
And it was only that that has caused now people to emulate it.
Don't doubt me on this, folks.
Okay, so I'm sitting here thinking, the uh White House, as we speak, is in is engaged in a uh a new outreach campaign for transgenders on where to pee.
They're asking transgenders for you know, whatever you need.
List your needs, and we here at the White House, we and the government will help you.
And one of those, well, where to pee.
Uh if they come up with an answer to this, is there going to be a sign?
You know, if you run in a men's room, there's a ladies' room, there's a sign.
What's what's the transgender restroom sign?
Does anybody What is it?
Anybody have any idea?
Did they A family sign?
Oh, it's a family?
It's a family s oh, is that right?
