There's an email going around, purporting to be a nude photo of Hillary Clinton.
Do not open it.
It is a nude photo of Hillary Clinton.
Yeah, I think I got it.
Great to have you back here, folks.
It's uh Rush Limbaugh.
And uh new new week of broadcast excellence here behind the uh Golden Mike at the Limbaugh Institute.
800-282-288-2 if you want to be on the program.
Here is David Clark again.
I'm just gonna uh jam all three of these bites here together.
Not back to back, Mike, but consecutively here, replaying the first one because he was on Fox this morning, and he really just cuts to the chase.
He's African American, he's the sheriff Milwaukee County, David Clark's his name.
He gave a great speech at the Republican convention in Cleveland, and the question that got him going was how are things going in Milwaukee now?
And what do you think about how all of this has happened?
How did it all evolve?
Saturday night, the social order totally collapsed in a uh part of the city of Milwaukee, and when that happens, tribal behavior takes over, and tribal behavior leads to the law of the jungle replacing the rule of law.
Here's what causes riots.
We have inescapable poverty in the city of Milwaukee.
Milwaukee's like the sixth poorest city in America.
You have massive black unemployment.
I think it's at 32%.
You have a failing K-12 public education system, it's one of the worst in the nation.
You have questionable lifestyle choices.
Some of this is self-inflicted.
All these kids with no fathers around.
Father absent homes.
When fathers aren't around to shape the behavior of young men, they oftentimes grow up to be unmanageable misfits.
Those are the ingredients Milwaukee has all of them.
And again, there hasn't been a Republican in sight there since I don't know, 1916, something like that.
I'm not kidding.
It has been 70 or more years since a Republican has been mayor in Milwaukee.
There might be one or two exceptions in there, but I mean the Democrats own this city and they own the culture.
They own everything about it.
And Clark is exactly right.
Here's the here's the next bite.
He was asked, Well, what are you personally?
I mean, you live there.
I mean, you see this happening.
And it's happened in Dallas, it's happened in Baton Rouge, it's it's happening in a number of places.
But now it's happening where you live.
What do you think of all this?
There are millions of young men across the country who are in that same situation.
You know what encourages this?
The growth of the welfare state.
These are underclass behaviors.
70% of the kids born in Milwaukee, at least for the last decade or so, are born without an engaged father in their life.
So I look at the progressive policies that have marginalized black dads.
They push them to the side, said you're not needed.
Uncle Sam is going to be the dad, he's gonna provide for the kids, he's going to feed the kids, so on and so forth.
But Uncle Sam's been a horrible father.
Uncle Sam does not love these kids, might keep a little food in their mouth, and that is about it.
But we all know the importance of an intact family, what it can do to shape the behavior of kids.
And when you have the situation like we have here in Milwaukee, it's in Chicago, it's in Baltimore, it's in New York and some other areas.
This has been a total collapse, a disaster.
These progressive policies have hit the black community like a nuclear blast.
And until we reverse this, this government dependency, that's what creates all of this, and it encourages it, by the way, along with some questionable lifestyle choices.
But until the black community does a self-evaluation, and until they begin to self-criticize about some of the lifestyle choices they're making, this stuff's gonna continue to fester and it's gonna continue.
Now, this guy is going to be just lamb basted as an Uncle Tom, as a traitor, as a sellout, as a tool for everything he has just said here.
But he's right on the money, and it's nothing new.
This has been the result of two things.
Lyndon Johnson's Great Society, which led to the war on poverty.
And of course, it was uh greeted with massive fanfare, total applause.
Look at all the caring that we're gonna do.
Look at all the compassion we have.
Look at what good people we are.
We're gonna get people out of poverty, and they've done nothing of the sort.
All they have done is convince people that the government is Santa Claus.
And as the Republican Party is finding, Santa Claus is tough to beat.
Now, Santa Claus may not bring a whole bunch of stuff, but he brings just enough.
And these people, there's an there's another ingredient to this that Sheriff Clark alludes to here when he talks about how the federal government has assumed the role of father.
He is dead on right about that.
But then he talks about the importance of an intact family, and what an intact family can do to shape the behavior of kids.
Guess what else is under assault in this country and being redefined?
You got it, the family.
And the nuclear family is coming under attack, and families being redefined to become normal with whatever anybody wants their family to be.
And as a result, it's disintegrating.
One of the most fundamental building blocks of an ordered, mannered, cultured society.
And it's also being done on purpose.
And the way it was going about was the way the left goes about everything.
You focus on the disadvantaged, you blame their plight on everybody else.
It's got nothing to do with it.
Let's say you have in a town, just gonna make up some numbers here.
You got a town of 10,000 people, and 9500 of them live in families of four, six, eight, mom and dad at home, kids get up every morning and go to school.
Five hundred families, dad's not there, mom's not there, kids don't go to school.
The 9500 are blamed.
The 9500 are focused on and said it's not fair that they should have the opportunity to live in family circumstances like that.
Look at these other 500 families who don't, and the and the 9500 intact families are targeted and blamed as examples of the disparity and the inequality and the discrimination and what have you.
And so the 9500 families are told you better accept whatever these other 500 families are doing.
You better accept it, you better embrace it, otherwise you're a racist or a bigot.
Instead of the Democrat Party going to those 500 families and trying to convert them and reorder their family life so it's productive.
They embrace the disaffection.
They embrace the chaos and attempt to capitalize on it.
And I think it's reprehensible.
And so it's there's multi-facets to this.
The dissolution of the American family in certain neighbors just didn't happen.
It's like economics.
This is not just cyclical.
We're not just in a bad time for families in America.
This is the result of specific policies being implemented.
Just like the current economics, economics or economy of the country is the direct result of specific policies being implemented.
is the condition of the American family.
It is the result of specific policies implemented by the Democrat Party.
That's what I find most frustrating is that people know there's all kinds of things wrong.
People know that it's just not right, that this is not the way we've always done things in America.
This is but they don't have the ability to hold anybody accountable for it.
They just chalk it up to, well, you know, I guess America's best days happened before I was born, damn it.
Or maybe even find a way to blame it on Republicans for not caring.
But it isn't that.
Specific policies being ampled, like the War on poverty, like the Great Society, like AFDC.
And the result is, and this is the compassionate take, by the way.
The result is the people that Sheriff Clark's talking about, they've had their humanity robbed.
They've had it stolen from them under the false promise and a false premise of economic stability, fairness, equality, and discrimination, all kinds of glorious things have been promised.
None of them happened.
Because they can't happen given current policy implementation.
So the compassion way to look at this is the way we look at it.
My gosh, what can we do to change this?
The Democrat solution is to find somebody to blame that's usually their political opponent, then make the government grow and grow and grow, and talk about how you're taking more from the rich and you're gonna give it to the downtrodden or whatever, create the notion of Santa Claus.
And after enough time goes by, you have destroyed the whole concept of work, you've delegitimized that, you've stigmatized the combination the concept of work, you've even stigmatized achievement in school.
Get good grades and you're selling out.
Get good grades and you're you're uh you're falling in with the man or whatever.
You're not enough of a rebel.
And it matters.
You know what we were talking about last week, too.
Uh that the real divide in this country is that you have your elites and the members of the establishment, and now they want no part of the rest of the population.
And that is new, and it's relatively new.
And it explains how it is that all of these elites and all these establishment types can openly welcome open borders and illegal immigration and a flood of people that can't speak English and have no skills whatsoever, they're not employable, other than at cheap minimum wage rate labor.
If that influx of people were going to live next door to these elites and a stash of people, it wouldn't happen.
But because they're not affected by what they do, only you are, it's no big deal.
It's the same way with Hollywood.
It's the same way with Hollywood and the music industry.
They can produce all this filth for your kids to consume.
They can produce all this questionable content for your kids and for your family to get but their kids are not going to see it.
Maybe.
But it's the divide has always been there.
We've always had economic divisions, but what's different now is that those at the top have no concept of belonging to a country.
And so they have no concept of fellow citizens.
Their interests go beyond patriotic things or nation-oriented things.
It's not, it's not enough to call them globalists, although that may be what they are, but that doesn't accurately describe the destructive nature of what they do.
When you have no desire to associate with your country, i.e., well, my company's not specifically American.
My beliefs are not specifically American.
No, I've got nothing in common with those people having burgers on the 4th of July.
No, no, no, no.
I'm playing tennis or polo out here with my charity group or whatever, when when there's no desire, when there's no ability to commingle, when there's no respect, which is where we are.
So they can write and produce filth and trash for your kids and your family to consume.
And they can have political policies that run roughshod and wreak havoc in your town in your life, but it doesn't happen where they live.
And that's what's different.
There used to be a national sense of community.
And now some people are opting out.
For whatever reasons.
Here's the final David Clark bite, audio sound bite number 23.
He points out, yeah, this is it.
Who has run Milwaukee since 198?
And the political answer really is for these progressive Democrats.
They've ruled this city for 50, 60 years.
We haven't had a Republican mayor in the city of Milwaukee since 1908.
Okay, so this is all on them.
But the political class is also going to have to be honest and say, look, we set up this government dependency.
It has backfired on us.
Let's slowly you can't pull the rug out from under people all at once.
Let's slowly start to reverse this and make people make people reach for self-sufficiency.
Over time you can reverse this.
You can't do it all at once.
But right now this is about political power.
The progressives want votes, black votes, and they do it how keeping black people hooked on the high of handouts.
Well that's true, but it's I think it's even worse than that.
I think there's it's more than just handouts.
They've created hatred.
They've created resentment.
They have stigmatized.
I mean he wants self-sufficiency and I do too, but they've even stigmatized that you talk about you you want to put that in action next time you're with somebody and you happen to see a homeless guy, just say to your friend, you know really get a job and you'll be called insensitive and you'll be called names, unfeeling, uncaring.
Oh, easy for you to say they've stigmatized self-sufficiency.
They routinely you you say rugged individualist to a liberal and they go bonkers.
They despise the concept they think rugged individualism and self-reliance is nothing more than greed and selfishness.
So the left has done more than just promise handouts and turned it into an addiction.
They have stigmatized the solutions and have made them popularly unacceptable, uncool.
Quick time out my friends we're going to get started with you on the phones when we get back okay let's get started on the phones.
And we're going to go to Baltimore Dan, great to have you on the EIB network sir.
Hello.
Hey Rush Happy Monday.
Thank you, sir very much.
I wanted to call to say that I'm not discouraged at how the Republicans are treating Trump and I think I finally understand it.
Um I'm a why person and I've I've been thinking about it and I've the definition of conservative while it has many facets uh one facet is you know your political and your religious beliefs and values but the other facet is slow to change, likes the status quo.
So it started to make sense why some of my family members and friends may not like Trump, you know, and most of them are still going to vote for him but some aren't and that frustrates me but you know there's been so many changes the past eight years to worse in you know Baltimore where I live and Milwaukee and the Democrats and the Obama all these changes we need somebody that's going to change back quickly.
So while Trump I think there's two boxes Trump checks off the box for values and beliefs you know he believes the same conservatives do but his avenue of action meaning the way he does things is more aggressive or progressive so I think that's why people don't like him but I think he's exactly what we need to make these changes more quickly than what I think David Clark is saying.
You know, we we have to do some slow but I just feel like we need to make so many changes so fast that the media spins they don't know how to keep up with it and I just want to see change fast.
Well a lot of people do but but I want to make sure I understand what you're saying.
You you are you saying that you have not lost faith in Trump that all this media coverage and criticism I mean it's bad.
I mean today the Wall Street Journal Trump get out by Labor Day or else the New York Times the Washington Post I mean it is brutal.
I mean they they're talking about Trump may get 10 electoral votes.
I mean they're doing everything they can to totally demoralize anybody and everybody as they can do with Trump including run stories about how he's depressed and sullen and is simply looking for laughs now at his rallies but that's all he wants anymore.
Correct I'm not discouraged.
I mean that's obvious to me that the media and even politicians are doing everything they can because they're scared they're running around pulling their hair out but it brings me joy to see that because I think that's exactly what we need and I think no no are are they scared now, or are they really cocky, feeling their oats and thinking that they have just even before Labor Day, they have destroyed Trump, they've destroyed the Republican Party.
It's just a matter of time to wait till November.
You think they're really scared?
I think so.
I mean, they're of course they're a little cocky, but I think they're I think they're scared because you know, traditional conservatives are, you know, way in on they take consideration for what the media thinks.
Trump doesn't care what the media thinks, nor do I. And I think he's got 50, 60 million people on his side that's a very good thing.
Well, no, I'm I'm happy to I'm happy to hear that you're still all in and unaffected by it.
Um, what they're trying to do is that they don't want anybody talking the way you are.
They they want people like you to be the biggest rarity in politics right now.
Are you ill rushboard?
Half my brain tied behind my back just to make it fair.
I haven't had a chance to send this up to Cookie.
I just got a note about a video, Milwaukee rioters to police.
We want blood.
We cannot cohabitate with white people anymore.
Um, I I can't watch this stuff during the program.
This is one of the problems.
I get this stuff submitted to me, and I can't I can't watch it and send it up.
It's 17 minutes long.
So I just want I just want to make you aware of this because it dovetails with the story I have been saving since last week.
Now hang on.
I'll give you a poll quote here at the 35-second mark of this 17-minute video.
It's a this video, by the way, has emerged.
And this video appears to show the beginning of the Milwaukee riots.
This is as the rioters were initially threatening the cops who were trying to keep the peace during the afternoon after everybody thought that they had once again white cops shot an unarmed black.
Wasn't the case.
It was an armed black fleeing the scene of a crime shot by an African American cop, but the community lied to about it by media and by community organizers.
And so this video purports to be at the beginning of the Milwaukee riots and at the 35-second mark of the 17-minute video, a rioter can be heard yelling to the officers, we do not want justice or peace anymore.
We are done with that excrement.
We want blood.
We want blood.
We want the same excrement y'all want.
Eye for an eye, no more peace, F bomb all that.
Ain't no more peace.
Ain't no more peace.
We done.
We cannot cohabitate with white people, one of us have to go, black or white, all you have to go.
Now, before you say, well, that's the heat of the moment, and we can't we can't react to crazily to this.
I'm not reacting to it at all.
I'm just telling you about it.
I don't doubt that these people mean it.
Now, I don't know how many people they represent.
But let me ask you a question.
Are you aware?
No.
Let me rephrase the question.
How aware are you of the predominance of white privilege being taught in a condemnatory way on American college campuses today.
It is huge, folks, from the Ivy League to the upper Midwest to the West Coast to even conservative, supposedly conservative type colleges.
The concept of white privilege and how that is the root of all social ill in America, or the majority of them.
White privilege is taught as something that is real.
It is discriminatory.
It's something to shed, it's something to feel legitimately guilty about.
I have seen an increasing number of stories of white college students running around bemoaning the white privilege that got them where they are, and saying how they don't deserve it.
They have unfairly benefited from a patriarchal white privilege culture.
This stuff is not insignificant.
You know, these are the kinds of things that we would see that I would see during this program 25 years ago, 20 years ago.
We'd make a joke about it.
We'd produce a funny parody about it.
We would laugh at it because we thought it was fringe.
We thought it was fringe, and it was uproarious.
It was hilarious.
Nobody's going to believe this.
It is amazing what kind of kooks they're breeding on college.
Well, here we are 25 years later, and this stuff's becoming mainstream.
Maybe not even becoming mainstream.
It has become mainstream on a lot of college campuses.
Well, the story that I've been holding dates back to uh August 10th, five days ago.
Claremont.
Do you know who used to Claremont?
Think of not quite, but think of Hillsdale College when you think of Claremont.
I was once given an award by uh a Claremont Institute of Think Tank.
But Claremont is a is a school, it's an independent school, but it's it's always enjoyed a very prestigious liberal arts education and uh and reputation.
Claremont students refuse to live with whites, but wait.
These are white students refusing to live with whites.
A group of students at the Claremont colleges are in search of a roommate, but insist the roommate not be white.
Two of the students defending the decision are resident advisors at Pittser College for the 2016-2017 year.
A group of students at the Claremont colleges in search of a roommate, insists the roommate not be white.
A student posted on Facebook that non-white students in need of housing arrangements should reach out to either her or two other students with whom she plans to live in an off-campus house.
The post states that people of color only will be considered for this living opportunity.
I don't want to live with any white folks.
This woman is named uh Karey Urinha.
So she's Hispanic Latin of some kind.
But in some cases, it's even white students who don't want to live with other white students because it stunts their gr.
And it encourages their racism.
They want to live with people of color to learn how their white privilege has harmed America.
And they can only do this by living with people who have the grievance as victims of white privilege.
And again, this is not just isolated.
This is more widespread than you than you think.
So the point of all this is why David Clark is exactly right, but we're so far beyond the debate over big government versus little government and government intrusion versus government leaving you alone and self-reliance versus government uh subsistence and so forth.
We're so far beyond that.
That that debate is almost incidental now.
And what's replaced it is the debate over just how unjust is the United States.
How immoral is the United States as it was founded.
How guilty is the United States.
Well, the answers are very guilty, very unjust, very immoral, and now why?
And one of the reasons why is white privilege.
And of course, all of this discrimination is applauded because it's seen as fixing something.
Yes, fixing decades, centuries of racism and discrimination.
So this reverse racism, reverse discrimination is called for, promoted, tolerated, not called out at all.
And I submit to you that it's these kind of things that we've seen sporadically in the news in recent years.
We look at it, think it's so extreme, so loco, we, these college kids, you know, it takes all kinds.
who knows where they're gonna come up with next.
It's becoming mainstream, all this stuff that we used to compartmentalize over here is kooky.
Here's uh here's Tom in Detroit.
Tom, you're next.
Great to have you to Rush Limbaugh program.
Hello, sir.
Rush, uh, thank you for taking my call and giving me the opportunity campaign because I know they listen to you.
Well, you're breaking up, I think.
Could you st what what campaign's listening to me?
Uh hopefully the Trump campaign.
Can you hear me now, sir?
Yeah, I hear you.
Yeah.
Try again.
Perfect.
Perfect.
Hopefully the Trump campaign's listening.
Okay.
Potentially, this is the greatest piece of political advice that has ever been given to anyone on this show.
And here it goes.
This is how Trump wins the election.
Um right now, his biggest enemy is the media, and this is how he's going to turn the media into his greatest friend and biggest weapon against Clinton.
Um, he's got to hold a press conference for the big campaign announcement and say the media is covering nonsensical things about me and ignoring blaring scandals and corruption from Clinton.
So from now until November, I will only be reading things that are from this piece of paper.
Pull out a piece of paper from his pocket, and on that paper are written uh vetted Clinton facts that are being ignored by the media and scandals that are being swept under the rug.
And that's it.
Um then the only other thing he'll do is hype the debate.
The reporters will say, hey, you're uh you're not talking about the issues.
I already talked about the issues.
Um you can go back and look at the tape.
You're not reporting on that anyways.
Did you know Clinton took so and so amount of money for her foundation and so on?
So the media has to report on Trump.
It's their biggest weakness.
And if Trump only says things that the media doesn't want to cover, they'll have no choice to switch from attacking Trump to defending Hillary.
So long as he doesn't break character, he can hype the debates to infinity because she does poorly in debate and put her in media scrutiny where she also does poorly.
That's my advice to the Trump campaign.
Okay, just so I understand it, because you're on a cell call and you're breaking up a little bit.
You want Trump to write down some things on a piece of paper that he never deviates from.
And you want that piece of paper to include uh things about policy where Hillary's wrong, where she's been bad, made mistakes, and has caused the country trouble, and you want Trump to focus on all of her scandals, the email and everything else.
No matter what it is, focus on it.
Right.
And makes it amazing.
Interviews, campaign rallies.
Well, wait a minute, wait, and you want all of this is going to make give the media no excuse but to report what Trump is saying.
Correct.
And they won't want to do this, so they're gonna start defending Hillary.
Correct.
Well, no, they have to report on Trump.
That's my point.
They have to report on Trump, and right now they're reporting on everything that Trump says that they can find silly.
So if he says nothing except Clinton facts and scandals, they'll have only one thing to report on about him.
That was the type of.
I know, I know it it sounds good.
It sounds good, but I like your thinking.
I do, but I I think it's a mistake to say there's only one thing the media could report.
I think that's where you may be missing this a little bit.
There's nothing stopping them from reporting anything.
Donald Trump today looking increasingly insane, once again made the baseless claim that Hillary Clinton's emails matter to anybody.
Trump appears to be losing it before our very eyes.
And they've done what you said, they've reported what Trump said, but they can I I I don't think as long as the media remains Trump's focus in any way, he's not gonna gain ground.
If the media is the target, he's not gonna gain ground.
If the media is the objective, he's not gonna gain ground.
He needs to go back to talking to the American people.
And you're right, he needs to tell the American people what is wrong with America today and why.
This is even during Trump's primary days, he didn't explain why all these problems he correctly identified exist.
Oh yeah, he claimed that the immigration because our immigration system is out of control.
But why is it out of control?
My point is that you can take everything in this country that 70% of the American people think this country's on the wrong track.
You can take every bit of evidence that leads people to think that and blame it on the Democrats and Hillary.
You can do that because it happens to be true.
But if you choose to do this by talking about the media, or if the way you do it has in mind the media as the target, it isn't gonna work.
You gotta forget the media.
You've got to forget the media as you just have to acknowledge that they're an obstacle, acknowledge they're an enemy, but you've got to talk to the American people.
And it can't be about how the media isn't fair.
It can't be about how the media is crooked.
It isn't gonna all the you no candidate ever won beans trying to make people feel sorry for him.
And Trump is no exception.
And even if it's not that he's trying to make them feel sorry, nobody ever won beans complaining about the media.
Everybody complains about the media like everybody complained about the electric bill.
Now they complain about the cable bill.
But it doesn't change a cable bill, does it?
Cable bill steep keeps going up, doesn't it?
Where are we going next?
I like this.
You never know what's behind the blinking lights on the phones, even though it says what they're gonna talk about.
These last two callers haven't said one thing that I thought they were gonna say, which means I have to constantly be on my toes.
Now these guys didn't, they didn't lie.
They didn't mislead.
It's just when they got on the air, they thought they would say it differently than the way it was written up, which is one guy's phone line was chopping out on me there, so I had to correct him.
Uh but the last guy's point is is good in the sense that Trump's got to focus on Hillary, but not the media.
If he just focuses on Hillary, and they're still gonna characterize him as a loony-toon wacko, as I so adroitly illustrated.
Two callers ago, the guy, I think some people might have misunderstood what he was saying.
What he's really the people he's saying are really scared are Republican conservative pundits.
They are scared.
They are scared that Trump is redefining the party.
They are scared of what's gonna what what the Republican Party's gonna be once this is over.
Even if Trump loses, they're scared to death that their place in the party may be gone up for grabs or what have you.
And it may be, and I think the sooner Trump can be made to get out of this, the sooner they can humiliate him the better.
And I'm talking about like these 50 clowns that sign this letter, these former NSA guys that say Trump is just unacceptable as president, and these other Republicans.
I mean, they that's not the media.
He was he was talking about those people being scared.
And that's it's purely personal with them.
I mean, it's all they've got.
You know, I it's i anybody coming after you trying to take away all you've got, you're kind of be defensive too.
Here's here's Kathy in Orangeboro, Kentucky.
Great to have you on the program.
Hello.
Hey, Rush.
I've listened to you since 1992.
Uh, and thoroughly enjoy you.
Thank you.
Thank you very much.
And I wanted to touch a little bit on what David Clark said.
I couldn't agree more.
I think the family unit, or rather the destruction, the demise of the family unit is so heavily part of the problem here, and while we are economically where we are.
No question about it.
Absolutely.
And um, you know, when people belly ache and say that, you know, they they don't have money or they can't get money or whatever.
Uh work a little harder.
Not everybody can be top dog, and not everybody can make it big.
Well, now wait a minute.
See, even that's been that's been roasted.
That's been stigma working and working hard, that's been stigmatized.
That's that's not even used as an inspirational bit of advice.
No, but as as a person that started out 42 years ago with my husband with no money, and now we have we are what I would consider quite successful, and we didn't do it working eight to four, or excuse me, seven to four or eight to five.
But you're white, right?
You're white.
Yes, I am white.
Well, that explains how it happened to you.
That's what they that's what they're being told.
I know that.
And that's why what works for you Won't work for them because white privilege, people like you, people like me, have rigged the system against them, and we're lying to them, trying to keep them down by telling them to work hard.
Democrat Party owns that, folks.
