Time Text
Now, why in the world would this be happening?
The White House has just announced, folks, that the Department of Justice is investigating the Afghanistan hospital attack.
Well, Afghanistan didn't attack, we did.
We attacked the hospital.
We killed some people, and the DOJ is going to investigate this.
What are you looking for?
Signs of hate crimes or racism?
Why is the DOJ looking up?
Well, why wouldn't the Department of Defense look into this?
The DOJ is looking into this.
Does this mean I know what it is?
I know what it is.
In five months, Afghanistan's gonna have to make a deal with the DOJ, and we're gonna run their police force.
Just like we did in Ferguson.
Just that's what it is.
The DOJ is gonna find Afghanistan guilty of our bombing them.
That's exactly what a DOJ is gonna say.
Afghanistan doesn't know what they're doing, and they need us to come in and run the Afghan police department.
Except there aren't any African Americans there, so I I but I can think of nothing else.
The DOJ.
Anyway, greetings and welcome back, folks.
Great to have you, Rush Limbaugh, the EIB network at Limbaugh Institute, the telephone number.
800 282882.
Do you remember there is a a literal a lunatic disguised as a college professor at uh where is this babe?
Is it Penn State?
we're just, uh, come on.
It's an Ivy League school.
It's University of Penn.
And the woman's name is Anthea Butler.
We have uh we've we've uh talked about this woman before.
She doesn't believe in God Christianity.
She's uh she she's just a lunatic.
I mean, little lunatic.
And uh she slandered this show once because of some criticisms we offered of what she teaches.
Anyway, the woman's in the news, Anthea Butler, because she has called Ben Carson a coon.
University of Pennsylvania professor Anthea Butler called presidential candidate Ben Carson a coon for claiming that people have the right to display Confederate flags on private property.
If there, if only there was a coon of the year award, Professor Butler tweeted in response to another tweet linking to a sports illustrated article in which Carson was quoted defending the right of NASCAR fans to fly Confederate flags during races.
So Butler's tweet insinuated that Carson is a metaphorical slave who belongs in a wooden shed.
The word coon is an offensive term to slander Africans deriving from the Portuguese word barracus, which is a hut-like dwelling used to store slaves during auctions.
That's where the that's the root of the word coon, I guess.
Anyway, she's black.
So she can say, I guess, whatever whatever she wants to uh say.
And this is, I say she's she's a religious studies professor.
And this is not the first time that she has made an outrageous tweet or statement like this.
And Thea Butler believes that God is a white racist carrying a gun and stalking young men.
That's a quote.
And she said that because George Zimmerman was found not guilty in the Trayvon Martin case.
She is she also made similar bizarre remarks during the uh death of the gentle giant uh in Ferguson referring to it as a a blood sacrifice.
And uh she she has tenure.
She once bragged that she can't get fired over criticisms from the right, people like me uh and Sean Hannity and the college fix.
This is a campus reform website, hasn't we have we've we've posted the contre-temps we've had with this woman at Rushlimbaud.com back on July 22nd of 2013?
And uh she just is insane.
And she's a tenured Ivy League professor.
Religious studies.
Here you have it.
I mean, here you have a woman on campus that's actually advocating against Christianity and so forth.
Nothing can be done about it.
But how many other people you think get away with calling an African American in this country a coon?
And nothing is going to happen to her.
Nobody's going to say a word to her about it.
In fact, the people that criticize her are going to end up being targets.
By the way, by the way, there's something here about the American flag and the Confederate.
Get this, folks.
This is the Media Research Center, Brent Bozell and the boys.
Here's the headline NPR, National Public Radio, uses taxpayer dollars to create a replacement for the Confederate flag.
In the wake of the nationwide effort to remove the Confederate flag, NPR has decided to spend some of its money, which is taxpayer money.
NPR exists on the basis of government grants.
They're going to spend some of that money to commission a design company to come up with a replacement for the Confederate flag.
The design group or the branding group is called 70 KFT.
That's 70 KFT.
And they came up with this design as an alternative for Southerners who wish to display their regional pride, but shouldn't use the Confederate flag anymore because it symbolizes racism and bigotry and sexism and homophobia and all of that.
Gus Granger is the founder of 70 KFT, the design company.
He said the South is unique as a region in that it already has an informal definition.
The problem is that obviously this community that people feel so passionate about has uh out-of-date visual assets to help define its identity.
So here you have a bunch of northerners that are going to sit around and redesign the Confederate flag for people in the South and say, here, use this.
This is better for you.
Assets that you have now, i.e.
the Confederate flag, that's no good.
It's unacceptable to us.
So here, we're going to redraw your flag for you and some other symbols for you.
And uh, and then we're gonna leave where we live.
We're gonna move to where you live, and we're gonna start voting liberal democrat, and we're gonna corrupt where you live.
We're gonna bring our pro-tax big government beliefs that have forced us out of the East because we can't afford to live there anymore.
We're gonna move to where you live, and we're gonna do the same thing to you that's happened to us.
Because we're gonna come move where you are, but we're not gonna become you.
We're gonna continue to vote Liberal Democrat, and someday we're gonna have to leave this place and go someplace else.
This is a story in the Washington Times, and this one is so under the radar, and it ought not be.
It's a really long and detailed article.
It's 2300 words, but I don't need nearly that many to tell you what this story is.
John Solomon, the editor of the Washington Times has the byline.
The headline is Bill Clinton White House suppressed evidence of Iran's terrorism.
Bill Clinton's administration gathered enough evidence to send a top-secret communique accusing Iran of the deadly 1996 Cobar Towers terrorist bombing.
But the Clinton administration suppressed that evidence and kept it from the American public and some elements of U.S. intelligence for fear it would lead to an outcry for reprisal, and Clinton had no desire to counterattack Tehran.
Bill Clinton did not want to have to confront Tehran.
He had evidence that Iran was instrumental in the Cobar Towers attack.
A lot of Americans died in that attack.
That was Saudi Arabia.
Before Clinton left Orifus, the intelligence pointing toward Iran's involvement in the terror attack in Saudi Arabia that killed 19 servicemen and wounded hundreds was deemed both extensive and credible, according to the memos that John Solomon saw here.
It included FBI interviews with a half dozen Saudi co-conspirators who revealed they got their passports from the Iranian embassy in Damascus, i.e., Syria, for those of you in Rio Linda, reported to a top Iranian general and were trained by Iran's revolutionary guard, according to the Washington Times.
And basically, that's all you need to know about the story.
It's 2300 words, but the Clinton administration gathered enough evidence to send a top secret communique accusing Iran of facilitating the Cobar Towers attack, 1996 in Saudi Arabia, knew it was Tehran and suppressed it.
By the way, all of this has been corroborated by the former head of the FBI, Louis Free, who says the Clinton administration had decided they wanted to improve relations with Iran.
And so there was no release of this evidence to the American people that the Iranians were behind the thought it was bin Laden or Al Qaeda or the you know a precursor.
They were right about that.
It was just nobody thought it was Iran.
Clinton knew that it was Iran, didn't tell anybody because didn't want the pressure of having to retaliate.
The revelations about what the Clinton administration knew are taking on new significance with the recent capture of the accused mastermind of the attack, which has occurred in the shadows of the U.S. nuclear deal with Iran, which is something the media ignored because they didn't want any hard feelings toward Iran while Obama was paving the way for them to get a nuclear.
So the last two Democrat presidents have played FTSI with Iran while publicly stating policy initiatives that were not true.
Meaning Clinton and Obama both spoken tough about Iran, but they haven't meant it.
This is incredible.
And this is like black hawk down all over again, except we knew about that.
Cobar Towers, 19 Americans, there's a huge terror attack in Saudi Arabia, 1996.
Clinton knew from the get-go the Iranians and suppressed the evidence.
And it was he knew probably, you know, it's not mentioned here, but but it wasn't long after this that the Lewinsky thing happened, and that had to be some people inside the Clinton administration who had to think that that might pop too.
So anyway.
Two Democrat presidents, both looking the other way, as Iran behaves as it is.
Just incredible.
We have some audio sound bites here, folks, about the Clinton campaign, the Hillary Clinton campaign.
We talked about it earlier in the program.
We'll start here.
Last night, Bloomberg TV, all due respect.
This is uh the show hosted by Mark Halperin and John Heileman.
And they had Jennifer Palmeri on.
She's a Clinton campaign spokeswoman, and Halpern said, Look, is uh is Hillary a normal candidate?
Well, what kind of question is it?
You know, these are people in the tank for Hillary.
Is Hillary a normal candidate?
What's the basis for the question?
Anyway, here's what Jennifer Palmieri said.
The elements are all there campaigning like a normal person.
A lot of contact with voters, a lot of one-on-one time with voters, big town halls.
You see here answering a lot of questions.
She loves all that.
Um, a lot of interviews as well, a lot of uh local and national.
Sorry, we don't see any of that.
You know, we had a call here on Friday that uh Hillary had an event down at Broward College, some university in Broward County, and she was running late.
C-SPAN was covering it.
She turned out to be an hour, hour and a half late.
Nobody showed up at this thing, and in fact, the few people it did began to trickle out when she was late.
She's habitually late like Obama is.
She shows disrespect, but she doesn't do a lot of interviews.
She doesn't draw big crowds.
She doesn't have a lot of contact with voters.
She doesn't do a lot of one on one time with voters.
She doesn't do big town halls because nobody shows up at them.
Now, Trump is leading in every poll.
Yet they have him dropping out of the race.
Hillary is losing to Bernie Sanders everywhere.
And in some places, she's not losing to Bernie Sanders, she's losing to Trump.
She's in Iowa, New Hampshire.
She's losing to Carly Fiorina.
She's losing to Jeb Bush.
And yet, Andrea Mitchell, NBC News, Washington says that she is on fire.
Hillary Clinton was on fire today.
Lashing out at the House Benghazi committee, never a good front runner.
Clinton is now an underdog in New Hampshire trailing Bernie Sanders, who drew 20,000 people in Boston Saturday.
And with Biden in, she falls farther behind.
Clinton didn't shy away from her emotional side, proposing new gun controls.
Yeah, she's on fire.
She's on fire.
She's a kind of fire.
Somebody needs to get a fire extinguisher because it isn't good.
Bernie Sanders beating her, outdrawing her, all this other she's on fire and barely staying alive.
And now Biden getting she's on fire, man.
She really all that means is Hillary came alive.
Hillary the robot disappeared, and it appeared she got angry.
It's a new strategy for Hillary to get mad out there.
And then there's a second phase, and that's to start crying and get all choked up.
And that's what happened.
Yesterday morning she was angry.
By the evening, she was emotional.
Two nights before she was laughing on Saturday Night Live.
So she's trying to run the full gamut of the Hillary Clinton emotional curve.
Here she is in Manchester, New Hampshire yesterday.
So many of the parents of these precious children who were murdered have taken the unimaginable grief that they have been bearing, and have tried to be the voices that we need to hear.
It was a video that killed people in Benghazi.
It's the gun that killed the students in Oregon.
Got that?
The video killed Americans in Benghazi, not the guns, not the terrorists, the video.
In Oregon, it's the gun.
Even the shooter is a victim.
A guy that we need to pity.
Excuse me a minute.
What do you mean?
Am I impressed by how since that sounded sincere?
Wait a minute, play play that again.
I didn't hear sincere.
Maybe I wasn't listening for it.
Play sound bite number was an eight?
Yeah, number eight.
Play it again, Friday.
So many of the parents of these precious children who were murdered have taken the unimaginable grief that they have been bearing, and have tried to be the voices that we need to hear.
Huh?
It's all calculated.
I don't even what did you say it was?
Genu.
Almost sincere.
Okay.
Well, good for her.
That's how you hear it.
Fine and Andy.
Who am I to say?
Okay, folks, the Ditto Cam's not on because I'm going to turn it on in a minute because what I've got here, I've got a drawing of the new Confederate flag drawn designed by Northerners for you people in the South who can't use a Confederate flag anymore because it stands for racism, sexism, bigotry, hatred, murder, lynching, and you know whatever else they say it is in the north.
At the left.
So these uh this group 70 KFTS, whatever it is, the uh group that NPR hired with your tax dollars to design a new Confederate flag.
You ready for it?
Okay, here we go.
There is the new Confederate flag as designed and commissioned by NPR.
That is the new flag that's supposed to remind you of your unique culture in the South.
I'm sorry for you if you don't have the Ditto Camp, you're not listening, streaming the program on the uh app or the website.
You have to be a member to get the ditto cam.
But we'll have this at rushled naught.com later.
The actual graphic.
That's just a printed copy of it.
The text underneath this says the result is a symbol a symbol that is patriotic, energetic, modern, and tells a positive and relevant visual story about the South.
Okay, now that you've heard, I would put it back up there.
Underneath this flag, what the text says that you you you saw it a moment ago.
This the result is a symbol that is patriotic, energetic, modern, and tells a positive and relevant visual story about the South.
Okay, so what is that positive, relevant visual story about the South that you see in that flag?
Does that flag say anything about the South to you, Mr. Snerdley?
If you saw that flag, Rachel, would you know, wow, wow, what a great way to represent the South.
No bars, no well, there's bars, there's no stars.
There's no, there's there's nothing.
I mean, there's nothing in this flag that would make you think that it is a descendant of the Confederate flag of the South at all.
And again, the name of the design, 70 KFT.
Hired by NPR, commissioned, a design firm and marketing firm to a bunch of Northerners, basically, and Northeastern liberals, I I guess they're Northeastern NPR.
Design your new Confederate flag to show the relevant visual story, positive relevant visual story of the South.
Hubba Tubba.
Elizabeth in Washington, D.C., you're next.
I'm glad you waited and hello.
Hi, it's an honor to speak with you.
Thank you very much.
Um yesterday you had a caller mention the traction that Bernie Sandberg is gaining in the polls.
And you said that if the Clintons or the Democratic Party really wanted to take him out, they could, and they probably would.
And I was wondering if you thought the GOP establishment had the same type of power to take out Donald Trump.
Well, uh it wouldn't be as easy.
And the reason is that that Bernie is an active daily voting with uh Democrat who is seeking the presidency under normal circumstances, Democrat Party with fundraising and and this kind of thing.
And it's it's a it's a fine line.
I mean, any powerful group can exert pressure on anybody, including the GOP against Trump and the RNC against Trump.
Um in the case of Bernie Sanders, what I mean by that is there the Democrat Party's content right now with Bernie to be doing what he's doing because he's generating enthusiasm among Democrat voters.
But the problem with Bernie is that he really means all this anti-corporate stuff.
And the Democrats are in bed with corporate America now.
The Democrats are in bed with Wall Street, they're in bed with high finance, they are in bed with big money people.
The old saw that it's the Republican Party and big businesses that are tied together is gone.
The Democrat Party owns that.
All those donors and and all those CEOs at the high finance houses and the banks, they all vote and raise money for the Democrat Party.
And Democrats know that Hillary or that Bernie Sanders means it.
If he ever got to the Oval Office, he would genuinely launch an attack on them.
And that's what the Democrats will not permit.
So when I say they won't let him, they'll do something they would monkey with convention rules or do something that would deny Bernie the nomination on the Republican side.
The Republicans have been trying to take Trump out since the first debate.
And since you know Trump is not accepting any donations, he's not running under the uh umbrella of the Republican National Committee.
He's really an independent candidate.
I know Bernie Sanders is not a registered Democrat either, he's an independent, but he uh I falls much more under the purview of the Democrat Party than Trump does under the Republican Party right now.
Bernie does not have any independent power, resources.
He's a pauper.
You know, he he he's he's he can't sustain himself.
He needs uh a lot of allies and assistance.
Trump is an entirely different uh in in that regard.
Plus, you know, you'd have to get who is the Clinton equivalent on the Republican side that would have an army and a uh group of people that when the time comes, cut Bernie off of the knees.
You know, who who is the Hillary on the Republican side that could do that to Trump.
I mean, can you name anybody?
The Jeb Bush organization.
Who is it?
That's who I would think comes to mind.
Wasn't Jeb Bush.
Yeah, I tell you, um, let me find it here because there's I mentioned it earlier in the program.
There's a daily beast story today about Jeb and how he ought to just cash it in, just get out.
It's over.
He's dragging the whole party down.
And I must have put it in a in a different stack here.
I'll find it before the program ends.
But it's making the point here that he's dragging everybody down, he's wasting a bunch of money, he's fixing it so there's no way that he can win.
Uh, and he would be doing the country such a great favor if he were to just back out of the out of the race.
It's the first place I've seen it, even though it is a left-wing website.
Um, I just off the top of my head, Elizabeth, I don't I don't think that the Republican apparatus would have the same open season on Trump as the Democrats have on Bernie.
I mean, at the end of the day, and I look, folks, I I might be wrong about this Bernie Sanders phenomenon.
I might be totally misreading it.
But there are plenty of people in the Democrat Party that, if it becomes necessary, can knock on the door that Bernie Sanders answers, and essentially ask him if he likes living.
Uh I just don't associate that with the Republican side.
I mean, even if they have somebody like that, they don't use it on anybody except us conservatives, but they certainly don't use it on Democrats.
So, but there's plenty of people.
I mean, look, Bob Torreselli, Andrew Cuomo was forced out of politics for a while.
Bill Clinton was the architect of both of those.
Um but Bernie, if that happened, I mean, Bernie would go on TV and say, you know, Lula's left, Bill Clinton just left through and threatened, you know, he threatened to fit me for cement swimsuit.
The crowd would go bonkers and Clinton would deny it and so forth.
And it'd be.
But then the talk would be I don't even think, to be honest with you, people on the left are taking Burnie.
In the Democrat Party, they're not even taking his candidacy seriously.
So he may sneak up on them.
I don't know.
Elizabeth, I appreciate the call.
Thanks uh much.
There's a couple other things here in the stack.
One is the Fox News story that the murder rate in Baltimore just continues and is just roaring out of sight here, even after all of the reforms that have taken place post Freddie Gray.
Uh Obama's going to this Oregon town, and nobody wants him to show up out there.
The parents don't want him to show up, the mayor, the city fathers of this town and don't want don't want Obama.
They don't want anybody there.
And yet Obama is going to go.
They don't want him to come politicize what happened there.
They're grieving.
It's a real tragedy, and they don't want somebody showing up that's going to try to turn it into an event about him.
And a fascinating story here from Forbes, and I may have to save this.
This is a fascinating story about millennials and how what everything we think about them is wrong.
That they are no different from their parents.
How many of you have heard, and you've heard me say it, that millennials are not interested in owning anything?
They're into the sharing community, that they don't care about cars and homes, none of the traditional things that their parents and grandparents wanted, or you and I wanted.
None of that interests them.
Well, it turns out that may be all wrong.
In fact, it may be.
It's a Forbes story.
Here's how the story begins.
This is the year that the millennial population surpasses the number of baby boomers in America.
And it goes on to say that these Millennial generation people are just like their baby boomer parents.
What's made them seem different is the Obama economy and the way they've adapted to it.
There aren't any jobs, there aren't any careers, they don't have any money to own a house or own a car, and so it's just been assumed that they have different values.
But what the Forbes story says is the exact opposite.
They are dying to own homes.
They're dying to own cars.
And it makes the point again that millennials do not associate, or very many of them do not associate the current status of the American economy with Obama.
Frustratingly and stupidly, they think it's just the country somehow is faded and it's not what it used to be.
I don't know how you don't connect what's happening in the country to the policies of the current president.
It's never happened in my life before, but apparently these millennials do not make that connection.
Some reason.
And we are back.
What happened?
What happened to the um what was that woman that just you just took her off the board?
She was what was she going to talk about?
No.
Is that what it was?
No, it was something else.
It was something that was um.
And I wish she hadn't gone away.
I should have said she was coming up next.
It wasn't fast and furious.
It was it was uh because I've got a story here in the snack that was going to relate to what it was she was going to talk about.
Anyway, well, David in Santa Barbara, we'll go to you.
How are you doing, sir?
Welcome to the program.
Uh, thanks, Rosh.
And Megadiddles from the liberal bastion of the left.
Yeah, great to have you with us.
Hi.
Thank you.
Um my point is that I think what should happen next with that canceling the America Day is that the parents should go to the school board and demand that the principal or whoever else was involved in canceling this be terminate it because there's nothing that scares a politician more than thinking that they're consistently.
You know what?
I totally agree with you, but let me tell you it's not going to happen.
And this is one of the problems.
I I have told this story I don't know how many times.
The reason it's not going to happen is because the parents are afraid that when they leave that the teacher or the parents is going to give their kid a bad grade and ruin their future.
That's the leverage and control the schools have over the parents.
I've told you all about this.
A woman who told me often that her daughter went to a school that had a I guess it was American history, and there was no history taught.
This course every day was nothing more than this teacher, a woman bashing George W. Bush.
It was current events right from NBC, ABC, CBS.
It was nothing but bashing conservatives, bashing Bush.
There was no history.
It was nothing but current events.
And the teacher, in order to disguise what was going on, gave the students.
She had to give history exams because there have to be tests and so forth.
She gave them the answers to every history exam that supposedly was given.
The students didn't complain because hell they were given the test.
All they wanted was to get the A and get out of there.
I mean, this is outrageous.
What's happening?
You've got an activist that's taken over a history court.
Why don't you do something about I don't want my daughter penalized?
Parents said nothing's gonna happen to that teacher.
All of us parents could go in there.
Nothing's gonna happen to that teacher.
The school board's gonna defend, the principal's gonna defend, all that's gonna happen is that my daughter's gonna get Fs.
So nothing's done about it.
A lot of people complain.
That's not the only story.
I hear countless examples of this kind of thing happening in schools.
And why the parents don't your example here out in Wyoming, that what needs to happen, so many go and tell the principal X, Y, and Z, if this doesn't stop, they're not gonna do it because they think their kids are gonna get harmed.
Which is ironic because their kids already are being harmed by what's going on in a classroom.
But grades are everything.
Grades is how you get into Harvard or whatever college you want.
Grades is how you end up impressing other people in town.
My student gets a my kid gets A's or whatever, and they're afraid of grade punishment, so they just don't say anything.
And the leftists continue to get away with it all.
Well, even if even if parents go to the school board members who are elected, you still the school board then tells the administration and principal you gotta stop this.
The kid whose parents show up is still gonna get punished.
That's what the parents think.
That's why they don't do anything.
