Welcome to today's edition of the Rush 24 7 podcast.
Buck Sexton here on the EIB today.
Very pleased as always to get a chance to sit in for the one and only rush.
Thank you for joining me.
It's late in the summer.
I hope you've had a good summer.
Summer almost coming to an end.
Usually this time of year things slow down a bit in the news cycle, but not today.
We've actually got a bunch of things to talk about.
You know, the journalists disappear all of a sudden.
They go to Nantucket and the Vineyard.
Head out east, which, if you're from the coast here, is a cool way of saying the the Hamptons.
They also go out to, I don't know, the Maryland shore, if you're in DC area.
I don't know where the journalists are on there hang out.
Something like that.
So I've I have no idea where everybody else in the DC area goes.
But they go to fancy places.
But the news cycle such as it is continuing on.
Big thing today, Donald Trump going down to Mexico.
He is going to go hang out.
He's going to have a sit-down with President Enrique Peña Nieto.
Apologies if any of my Spanish pronunciation is off.
I somehow managed to take French, German, and Arabic in school and not a day of Spanish.
I don't know how that went down.
I I I didn't want to I guess I didn't want to be in a French restaurant and be ordering these steak freights.
But short of that, there's really not a whole lot you can do with French in this country.
You can sell the bit fancy sometime, maybe perhaps a little bit, but it's not the most useful.
Probably would have been more useful to learn some Spanish.
So President Enrique Pinonietu, uh he is going to sit down with Trump.
They're going to talk about a whole whole host of issues.
Um something that I always think about when we look at uh when we look at Mexico in the context of what the Democrats are trying to achieve here.
Because I know first everybody's talking about well, how outrageous this is for Trump.
That's a first part of this we have to go through a bit.
Uh there's outrage in Mexico.
You can even do a quick look through the headlines if you want.
You'll see it yourself.
Mexico is outraged collectively that Donald Trump would go down and speak to them.
The media is outraged collectively that Donald Trump would go down to Mexico and speak to the president.
It's fascinating to watch regardless of where you fall on the political spectrum.
You've noticed something.
No matter what Donald Trump does, it's terrible and hateful when the media reports on it.
No matter what he does.
He's either uh too extreme or he's unprincipled.
He's either uh not pivoting as he said he would, or he's pivoting.
Um or he's he's crazy, he's he's racist, or when he does outreach to minorities, it's uh not in good faith, it's not effective, they don't listen to him.
So I so then he shouldn't do outreach.
It doesn't matter what he does.
They they hate him.
And and maybe you don't like him.
Maybe you're a never Trumper, maybe you're a stalwart constitutional conservative who wants to vote Evan McMullen or something.
I don't know what whatever the case may be, or do a write-in.
Maybe you want to write in Buck Sexton.
I don't know.
That could be kind of fun.
I get like two or three votes.
I can get my mom to vote for me.
That would be cool.
And this in this election year, crazier things have happened.
Uh but you'll notice that no matter what Trump does, it I think to put the Mexico visit in context.
I want to talk a bit about the Mexico policy uh here, or rather policies of of immigration that Trump is going to be discussing.
And it's also trade and a whole bunch of other issues that get piled on to this.
Um but Trump acts like a calculating politician on this one.
All right, you could say opportunistic.
And somehow the media always finds a way to bash him.
He was too hard he was too hard line on immigration, and then he started to shift on immigration, and then he's a liar.
You'll notice Hillary doesn't lie, she misremembers, she evolves, she shifts, she but never lies.
It's never cynical, it's never pandering, it's never just anything to stand with her or I'm with her, or whatever the slogan is.
I don't know.
Be re be ready for Hillary.
Um but if you want to know why the Democrats care so much about immigration, all you have to do is look at the the data, such as it is on how Democrats, or rather how um newly arrived immigrants or recent immigrants tend to vote.
And they vote overwhelmingly, overwhelmingly for the Democratic Party.
And there are very clearly efforts underway to change the electoral map in this country by giving the vote to as many illegals as possible.
Now I know people say, oh no, they're not talking about permanent legal status, not necessarily citizenship.
I hope nobody believes that that's what the Democrats will that they'll stop there.
They clearly won't.
They want a permanent majority.
That's what's at stake here, and that's why, as you've seen, President Obama has tried to sort of move the football down the field with uh deferred action for childhood arrivals and with with DACA and with DAPA, um, I believe are the two acronyms.
That's right.
Uh and he's tried to do what he can as an executive, overreaching, I mean really usurping legislative authority, deciding the Congress is kind of this anachronistic boring old thing with the bunch of boring old dudes in it who don't really matter anymore.
All we need is a president who knows how to get things done, has a pen and a phone.
If they get the amnesty that they want, and make no mistake about it, that is what they want.
There's no way that you can have a Republican in the next few elections, perhaps the next couple of generations, win a national election.
It's all over.
They know that.
If we're talking about what the stakes are, these are the stakes.
Democrats clearly understand that.
And as Donald Trump's down there talking to uh Pena President Pena Nieto, uh keep in mind that the the PRI, the pre, the revolutionary, institutional revolutionary party of Mexico was the only party that won an election, only national level party that won election of Mexico for I think it was about seventy years.
You see, we tend to think of power in this country as transferring back and forth between both sides, right?
One side messes up for a while, the other side comes in.
One side isn't doing a good enough job, at least the other side is a legitimate opposition, but in plenty of places that do have elections that have either parliament or some version of their own Congress, or in plenty of places where there's a form of democracy or they have their own version of democracy going on, there's really only one choice.
And in Mexico, historically, the choice was the revolutionary party, now called the institutional revolutionary party, originally the National Revolutionary Party.
Point here being the Democrats can look to the South and see a model for what they would like to achieve with one party rule in this country.
So as we sit here and talk about and think about the implications of Donald Trump, what he's saying on immigration, his ideas, building the wall.
The wall's crazy, they say.
We'll talk about how crazy it is.
As we discuss that, understand that the Democrats' plan here is to overw to essentially overwhelm the system, or to take the map such as it is of uh registered voters and add a few million to the Democratic side of the ledger, and that's ballgame.
That's it.
Look at the last few elections and look at what the differences have been in terms of what uh what victory was versus defeat, and you'll see that if you legalize, oh, keep in mind, by the way, with legalization, of course, comes chain migration.
So it's not even just the eleven million that they officially say are here.
I think the number is obviously higher than that.
I don't know what it is.
I do know that it's been eleven million for about a decade now.
I also know that people who think themselves quite fancy will go and say, well, net migration from Mexico has been zero because the economy has slowed down, and this is over the last few years or whatever the case may be.
And then you can always point out to them, well, yeah, but then there's that whole issue of other illegal immigrants coming through Mexico, specifically from Central America.
We saw that surge happening, tens of thousands that we that we knew about.
I actually just had a conversation recently with a veteran border patrol officer, and it was just off it it was an off-handed comment and sort of a I got kind of a laugh out of him.
I just asked.
I said, you know, you we're We're friends.
Uh, what's what's going on?
What's been going on down there at the southern border?
You've been stationed down there.
Are they are they accurate on the numbers?
He laughs.
Of course not.
First of all, they don't know what the real numbers are.
And second of all, they change the way they count the numbers to make it look better.
This administration, very clever, by the way, on that, deciding that a deportation is, oh, we just caught you at the border.
Now go back to the other side and try again.
Under the Obama administration, that's counted as a deportation.
You think that's a deportation?
I don't think so.
So they've been lying to you about this issue a lot.
They've been misrepresenting their stances on it.
All you have to do, by the way, is is go to, if you can stomach it, uh go to Hillary Clinton's official campaign website and see what the Democrats' position on immigration is.
And it's very it's just a lot of it just it's just hugs and rainbows and unicorns and wonderfulness.
They just want to just keep all the families together and everything's humane and cuddly.
But we're gonna uphold the rule of law, she says on this page.
They're gonna uphold the rule of law by ignoring existing immigration law and by creating a system through their so-called immigration reform that means that everybody can stay.
Now, not only can everybody stay, but at that point the constituency for a clo close to a de facto open border status will be larger than ever before.
Do you think at that point, do you think after a mass legalization, the conversation is going to turn more towards border security or border openness?
I think we all know the answer.
Now the Trump campaign is saying that they're not necessarily pivoting on this.
I don't know.
It changes day in and day out.
It's tough for me to defend it or criticize it one way or the other because it changes with the news cycle.
He's giving a speech in Phoenix after he visits Mexico.
One would think that this kind of outreach to Mexico is exactly the sort of thing that would get members of the media kind of excited.
Oh, he's doing outreach.
He's pivoting.
He said he would, and on this issue, he's pivoting.
Um of course, the primary reason to vote against Trump that the media's offered to you is that he's a racist.
Um I I do not believe Donald Trump is a racist.
I don't think that anybody who uh knows him or his family thinks that he is a racist.
He may say things that fall outside the boundaries of acceptable discourse on issues like immigration.
That doesn't make him a racist.
And in some cases, it just makes him more honest than Hillary Clinton is willing to be about how he feels about immigration issues.
Because she's of course lying.
Go back and watch the debate if you well, you won't do this, but I'll just tell you about it, and you can check me on this if you want.
If you watch the debates between Bernie Sanders and Hillary Clinton, that whenever immigration would come up, there was never any sense whatsoever that enforcement was going to happen, that anybody was going to be sent home, and really that they wanted to stop anyone from coming here.
They just kind of want to register them.
They want to register them to vote Democrat and register them from Obamacare.
Oh, by the way, that is on Hillary Clinton's campaign website.
They want to sign people up.
They want to let families, quote, we should let families, regardless of immigration status, buy into Affordable Care Act exchanges.
Illegals buying into Obamacare means illegals getting Obamacare subsidies, and oh yeah, that's right, Obamacare is collapsing in a lot of states, but that's perhaps a conversation that we'll have to hold off on for now.
We were promised that would not be the case when they were initially ramming through Obamacare without a single Republican vote.
We were promised that.
And yet here we are.
Hillary Clinton saying no, in fact, that will be our policy.
Illegals will get Obamacare, which is subsidized taxpayer-funded health care.
That's right.
That's how they're holding this whole thing up by funneling taxpayer dollars to it.
You don't think they're gonna get the vote if they legalize all the millions of illegals who are here?
You know they will.
You know it.
Buck Sexton and Farush Limbaugh, much more coming back in a few.
Buck Sexton here in for rush, 800-282-2882.
Kevin in Orange County, what's up, my friend?
You're on the Rush Limbaugh Show.
Hey, Buck, it's great to be on your show to stop.
from the beginning listener, first time caller.
Thank you for taking Russia's place today.
It's an honor.
Thank you.
Are you there?
Yes, Kevin.
We're waiting for you to just shed light on the world for us.
Go ahead.
I'm gonna okay.
I live in the the OC, but I have a I'm a surfer.
I have a house down in Mexico.
I'll go surfing down there.
So I have lots of friends.
Nice.
Hang 10.
Well, I saw the Santi Fox on TV this morning.
I I couldn't help.
I couldn't stand it.
They hate him down.
They hate that guy down there.
Nobody supports that guy.
Because he threw everybody down the bus.
But anyway, long story short.
All these politicos down there, and the PI is the original cartel.
That's where the cartels learned the cartel at.
That was cartel school.
The PRI.
But anyway, they want they're scared to death with a wall.
They're terrifying the wall because it cuts off the gravy.
We don't care about whether illegals up here get to beat system or not.
You know, so long as they send money gram money back from Walmart, you know, billions back to Walmart that never no cashes were paid on.
You know.
Oh, they well, the the remittances is something that's very rarely talked about.
I think it's about fifteen to twenty billion dollars a year is the estimate of just just U.S. cash getting sent south the border.
It's a huge wall.
This is real easy.
Here's how Mexico pays for the wall.
Oh, you guys didn't pay any money on that cash you got paid on that construction job that you that you sent through a wall back to Mexico.
Oh, you can't you can't write a check for it?
You have no proof of funds?
Oh, there's a 10% tax now on that.
Totally fair, right?
By the way, when you take a refrigerator down to your cousin or your nephew in in Tijuana or Entenada, they they hit you for 16%.
Fair is fair, right?
Yeah, look, look, I've I've read on on the Trump website, he talks about this uh on his official campaign website.
And uh Kevin, thanks for calling in from uh Orange County.
I hope you catch some wicked Is it a curl?
Is that when you're on the wave with the I I've never I know nothing about surfing.
Uh I know that Kawabunga, which the teenage mutant ninja turtles used to say is a surfing term, I believe, but that's all that I know.
Um look, the the Trump campaign.
We're talking about five, I think they say five billion is what they think the fence will cost, which I'm pretty sure you know the Pentagon spends that on pencils every year, so it you know, it's not really Yeah, that's right.
I'll go there.
This is a lot of five billion for this government, five billion is not a not a big deal.
I think the the estimate for Medicare and Medicaid fraud every year.
Fraud is in the sixty to eighty billion range, so there's so there's that.
Five billion, this is all about optics.
This is uh uh an issue of of a gesture from Mexico.
Could we raise the funds by uh tax doing something to sort of stop remittances or tax remittances?
Could we have some sort of uh you know import export tax?
Is there a way that you could raise five billion dollars?
Yeah, you probably could.
Does it really matter?
No.
Is it saying it's saying that Trump Mexico is gonna build a wall more about getting the base fired up than the economics of of building walls?
Yes, I think it I think it I think it is.
Um but walls are not crazy.
Uh walls actually do work, and we could if we want to go the historical route, we could talk about the Great Wall of China.
It's a rather large wall meant to keep out invading forces.
That was a while ago, though.
You could say, Buck, technology's gotten better now.
Now people can fly over walls.
They can overstay visas.
But huge problem.
About a half a million uh visa overstays last year, which is why that has to be addressed.
How do you address that?
Well, e-verify is a very good start.
But a wall would certainly be effective in some regard.
It would be useful, and people who think that a wall is crazy should probably stop and explain that to countries that are built.
When I say wall, I mean a barrier of some kind.
A fence, a wall, something that stops people from just walking or driving across.
And there are, of course, there's the U.S. unfinished U.S. uh Mexico border wall slash fence slash nothing.
Um but some European countries recently, because of the migrant crisis have started to build some walls.
Uh the Saudis to keep out the Yemenis and the problem uh problems there on the Arabian Peninsula.
Uh they're building walls.
There's quite a bit of uh wall that's been popping up all over the world.
The economist actually has a pretty uh interesting infographic on this.
There's a fence slash DMZ wall area between North and South Korea.
Not easy to get between India and Pakistan because of barriers and fences and things.
Uh and they will enforce that, of course, with uh lethal measures as well.
The Greeks have been building fences and walls because of the migrant crisis.
Hungary's built a fence.
I believe even one of the Scandinavian countries recently has started to be like, you know, maybe a fence isn't such a bad idea.
The Western Sahara has had a fence for a long time.
Uzbekistan trying to keep out Kyrgyzstan and Afghanistan is like, yo, you know what?
We've got a fence.
A lot of places have fences.
Good fences make good names.
Buck Saxon in for Rush.
More coming.
Buck Sexton here in for Rush on the Rush Limbaugh Show.
We are joined now by my friend John Schindler.
He is formerly of the National Security Agency, the NSA, currently.
He is a writer with the Observer, the New York Observer.
You can go to Observer.com to read his latest.
We're talking about Hillary and Russia.
John, great to have you as always.
What's up, John?
John.
Do we have John?
We had John.
I think we lost John, which means that we'll probably get John back in a second.
This is live radio.
Crazy th crazy things happen in this world that we live in.
I mean, I'm not going to say that the Russians may have hacked into our phone lines and and kicked Schindler off, but it's definitely a dis it's definitely a distinct possibility.
But for some reason, I can't I can't hear Mr. Schindler, so I don't know what to say about that, other than he's not.
John, are you there, buddy?
I am right here.
There we go.
Hey, party time.
What's up, John?
I I am in the middle of a uh Florida hurricane, but go ahead.
Oh, gosh.
Sorry to Well, not exactly hurricane, you know, bad weather.
Okay, bad weather.
Fair enough.
All right.
Well, we lost you for a second.
I was happy to blame the Kremlin, but you're telling me that it's actually Mother Nature instead of these days.
Instead of Putin.
Although maybe Putin controls Mother Nature.
Everyone's been talking, John, about how Trump has all these Russia connections.
We've even had seen former uh senior government figures out there saying that they think that um he's an unwitting agent of the Russians and all that.
But the Hillary Russia connections are fascinating and are getting much less attention.
Walk us through some of those.
Yeah, I mean, look, uh, Trump's connections to the Russians are kind of overt.
I mean, he's not really bothering to hide them.
Hillary has them too, and the Clintons, as they're Clintons, are a little better at hiding them, but we really do need to talk about them.
Um, of course, there's been the Clinton, the nexus with Moscow is about money, fundamentally.
Um we've known for a while that John Podesta, her campaign chairman, has had some strange ties with Russian corporations, the pedestrian group, the lobbying firm, high-powered democratic lobbying firm in DC.
He found it with his brother, um, has taken money from Kremlin sources, uh, other guys who are doing lobbying work.
Um, but it's actually a lot worse than that.
We we now know.
No Clinton cash.
We now know um some of the Clinton Inc.
links to the Skolkov Foundation.
And this is really important.
Skolkovo is a high-tech complex west of Moscow, established back in two thousand nine to be sort of Russia's Silicon Valley.
And unlike our Silicon Valley, Skolkovo is actually basically a government enterprise.
Putin has massively funded it to develop high technology.
And it has close connections with the Russian military and the Russian intelligence services.
Unfortunately, Clinton the Clinton Foundation seems to have been basically laundering money from corporations, US and other corporations giving money to Skolkov that wound up giving the Clinton Foundation many millions of dollars.
Um how many is not clear?
At least six million, maybe much more.
We're just not sure.
And the problem is the FBI had already warned American businesses not to deal with Skolkovo because it was basically a front for Russian intelligence.
So why is the Clinton Foundation encouraging FISCO, among many other Google U.S. corporations to invest in Kolkovo when these are actually also donors to Clinton Foundation.
It's a real mess.
Yeah, I I think generally speaking, the public is much less focused on uh corporate uh uh corporate espionage than they are on sort of military and and the classic uh intel uh intel espionage that that's been going on for well as long as people have been trying to gain advantages over their adversaries,
but from the r from the Russian point of view, from the Chinese point of view, from really any uh adversarial country's point of view, if they can get our trade secrets, that that that's in some cases more valuable, certainly in a dollar and cents uh sense of the word there or sense of it than uh than anything that they could get necessarily on the other side.
And so this seems like it was a huge opportunity for Russian corporations with ties to Russian intelligence to get access to sensitive U.S. commercial information.
And oh, by the way, the whole time the Clinton Foundation is getting cash from those same entities.
Russians have been stealing American high technology for a very long time.
This is not new.
What is new is in the Cold War, they actually had to recruit agents.
So-called private firms just reach out to American counterparts and say, let's do a deal.
Well, the problem is the high tech owners on the Russian side are at least sharing information with Russian intelligence and may actually be Russian intelligence.
And Americans are just not very sensitive to all this, whereas Russians are.
Now, the the uranium concession, by the way, this comes up a lot when people talk about the Clinton Foundation's shady dealings.
What can you tell us about this about the uranium mining uh concession that the Clinton Foundation, you know, what what's the tie-in there?
Oh.
Yeah, there we go.
And he's back.
And he's back.
This is what happens.
Phone lines.
Are we gone?
We're gonna have to try to call him again.
It was just getting it was just getting good, too.
It was just getting just getting exciting there.
We're about to talk uranium.
I mean, this is you know, eight eighty-eight miles per hour, plutonium reactor, going back in time.
We were talking about all kinds of fun stuff, and then and then Schindler disappeared.
I guess it must be very, very heavy rain down in uh down in Florida.
Also, if we're gonna steal some technology, maybe we should steal technology to make the phone companies actually work even when it's raining.
That would be kind of cool.
You would think you would think that we would be at that point in time.
Um but why why don't we uh Oh wait, hold on.
Oh, we're back with Schindler.
I don't hear Schindler, but apparently you can hear Schindler.
John, tell us about tell us about the uranium mining.
Oh, this is bad stuff too.
Um look, the Clinton Foundation uh was doing deals with Russian firms to sell something like twenty percent of uh U.S. uranium to companies uh that are indirectly directly controlled by the Kremlin.
Remember, in sane countries that have nuclear weapons, uranium is treated like a strategic industry.
Certainly the Russians treat it that way.
We used to treat it that way.
In Bill and Hillary Clinton's America, uranium into something that you sell to the Russians.
This is crazy.
This is stuff that during the Cold War would have considered essentially treasonous, but this is going on too.
Why there aren't congressional investigations about this?
Uh John.
I think why there aren't congressional investigations?
Yeah, why aren't there?
I mean, this is these are vital nuclear strategic materials that we are letting the Russians have for profit, by the way.
Why is that?
Who who is benefiting from this and why?
Yes.
Qui Quibono, right?
Well, and of course it's the Clinton, so you know what the Kibono is.
It's ultimately about cash and power.
Uh Trump's ties to the Kremlin are about his ego as much as anything else, I think.
Whereas the Clintons are very easy to understand what's going on here.
Right.
Trump's ties are more along the lines of isn't Steven Segal pretty close with Putin just because he doesn't get a lot of big deals these days here.
So he hangs out in Russia.
Like it's like Gerard Depardieu, the semi-washed up famous French actor who's taken Russian citizenship and hangs out with Putin.
Putin is collecting all these sort of strange uh washed up Western kind of action stars.
I I joke like the movie Expendables 37 is gonna be set in Crimea.
Uh but you know, I I mean this is yeah, Steven Segal is is one of the many people who has nowhere else to go.
All right.
Well, keep an eye on all those Hillary Russia connections for us, John.
John will for you, Buck.
Great.

Go check it out, everybody.
Let's take some calls here on the EIB.
Kelly in Melbourne, Florida.
What's up?
Hello.
How are you doing?
I'm great, thank you.
How are you?
Oh, well, I'm doing fantastic.
Listen, I am I uh I I really want to talk about uh immigration.
Yes, ma'am.
Uh I am for I am a Latina.
I am from Colombia and I came here illegally.
It really hurts me uh economically too, you know, is it's not hurting me now, but it's gonna be it's gonna hurt me in the future.
Right?
Because uh the more illegals, the more refugees we have, the more money and the more taxes we have to pay, correct?
Yes.
Okay.
So I I came here legally and and I'm and I'm a painter, I just get out of work and and I'm I and I and I am thinking to bring my mom to United States legally.
I just sent her the money to do the visa process.
I I want to send a message to all of those people and then Latinos that are here legally and illegally.
I wanna we are a hard workers and we came to United States with a purpose.
With a purpose to to do it to grow, not to go back, not to to not to do a one step and and back for you know what I mean.
Yeah, of course.
I mean, coming here legally shows a a willingness to work with it within the system and and it's a first your first steps with the United States as you when you come as a legal immigrant, as you as you have, um, are positive and respectful of the rule of law and are are all moving in exactly the right direction.
I mean, yes when you and and also uh last week I was working for a veteran, which I think pretty much I think then he's a democrat.
But and and and he saw my Trump speaker in my car, and he said, you know, you know then Trump wants you out of here.
I say, No, you're wrong.
Because he now won me out of here.
He won me here legally and paying taxes, like they all like the rest of the Americans.
All the Americans pay taxes.
What I shouldn't why shouldn't I, right?
Yeah, look, uh I I I think that this is uh a message that the Republicans uh in general and and Trump I I wish would uh well, I mean, it's he's got a lot of headwinds for the media in general.
Kelly, thank you very much for for calling in.
I appreciate hearing your perspective.
Um Republicans are the party of leg of legal immigration.
I mean, Hillary and and the Democrats can't have it both ways.
She can't say, and I I see right now she's giving a speech in uh in Cincinnati, although I'm not listening to her because we're doing live radio.
Um Hillary can't say they want to respect the rule of law, but they also uh refuse to break up any families or refuse to deport anybody because current federal law on immigration says that if you're here illegally, you're not supposed to stay.
Um so she can't have it both ways.
And to all of the people who have spent a lot of time and gone through all sorts have to j jump through all kinds of hoops and dealt with tremendous difficulties to come to the country legally, uh, what does it say to them that those who skip that whole process is also can be very expensive.
I know people have to deal with the immigration lawyers and you know, but they pay for them themselves, by the way.
That that tends to be at least the experience that I've when I speak to legal immigrants as they're going through the process, you know, uh there aren't it doesn't seem to me there are as many groups that are sort of clamoring, you know, sort of these leftist groups to to pay their uh their legal fees as there are for illegals.
There are illegals out there who now get invited to State of the Union address, get invited to the DNC to speak on stage.
There is a celebration of illegality occurring within the Democratic Party on immigration, and yet they also say they want to uphold the rule of law.
Hillary Clinton louds Barack Obama's uh centralization of power in the executive branch going around the uh Congress to try to say that uh uh laws essentially are no longer laws because I say so.
And she says she supports that, the Democrats support that as well.
Um because, well, for one, you know, Hillary can pivot, she can shift, she can change, she can lie, and none of that ever really matters.
Uh but the moment that Donald does any of that stuff, we have to hear about it from everyone.
And I know some of you probably are not uh not big fans of the Donald.
I get some get some sense of that from the social media interaction that I have when I uh get to sit here on the on the EIB.
But look, I have a very basic principle as a as a conservative and as a Republican.
I refuse to do the enemy's work for them.
So that's I start with that, and uh I oppose the Democrats.
That's that's where I sit.
That's where I stand.
Bruce in Indiana.
You're on the Rush Limbaugh show, you're speaking to Buck.
How are you doing today, Buck?
Good, sir.
Hey, I think uh you're kind of missing a point on this visit.
Uh oh.
And I think the reason that the media and Vicente Fox are so upset about the visit is that it validates uh how false the polls are, and it validates that, you know, when Hillary's got cannot basically fill a high school gym and Trump is filling arena after arena with thousands and thousands of people,
that you know, it just goes to show that uh President Nieto kind of looks past these fake polls and says, you know what, this is somebody we're gonna have to deal with, and so bringing Trump there now kind of, you know, it it throws a uh you know, because his his whole candidacy was a big joke in the media, you know what I mean?
He was supposed to be somebody who is just uh some figure who is just too far out there and nobody validated and nobody really appreciated, but that's not the case.
And so his visit kind of highlights that.
That's my opinion on it.
Well we'll have to see what he we'll have to see what uh uh uh Peña Nieto says after this as well.
Uh I do think that there's a possible there's sort of a a win for the president of Mexico and he says, see, the presidential candidate, this this right wing Republican had to come to me, you know, ha had to had to sort of kiss the ring and come down here and talk to me in order to appeal to Latino Hispanic voters in the United States.
We'll s we'll see what the president of Mexico says.
I'm I'm sort of withholding judgment on and also, by the way, we have to see what what Trump says in his immigration speech.
I uh uh you know, it's funny.
I've already seen some people saying, oh, well, he's stepping on one with the other.
And I'm like, uh under any under any non-Trump circumstances, meeting with the president of Mexico before you have a ma before you give a major speech on immigration would be seen as savvy statecraft.
But be but when Trump does it, it's like poor messaging, his campaigns in disarray.
Oh my gosh, did you know he's a racist?
I mean, it's just all it all gets piled on top of it right away.
No one ever thinks about this.
I mean, if Hillary did this, let me ask if Hillary went down to Mexico before she was going to go give an open borders speech on immigration somewhere.
Do you think the media would be saying that it's it just shows uh how how poorly run her campaign is?
I mean, every look, Trump does some things that I think aren't very aren't very wise and says some things that I I think are not particularly uh astute.
Uh but I don't think everything he does that he says and does is bad, and that's where the media is there.
I mean, I actually support some of his uh major positions.
So Bruce, that's where we are, my friend.
All right.
Bruce, it's been real.
Thank you, sir.
Um yeah, we're gonna go into a break here.
Buck Sexton in for rush.
We've got a lot more show.
Don't go anywhere.
Back in a few.
Ah, I see some old names on the political scene have held on.
We have the election that uh the primary, I should say, from Tuesday night.
Rubio, McCain, and Wasserman Schultz all rack up some victories.
Debbie Wasserman Schultz able to uh able to hang on despite all that uh all that uh nonsense or it's not nonsense, I should say, all the malarkey about the DNC trying to do everything they can to make sure that Bernie isn't actually the nominee.
Because America's not really ready to vote for a Democrat socialist just yet.
Hillary may share a lot of Bernie's policies, but she's not gonna go out there and call herself a Democrat socialist.
She won't do that.
But anyway, Rubio, who managed To uh to pull off that primary victory despite getting uh trounced in his home state by Trump.
That was a rough one.
And uh McCain, I mean I feel like the media was pretending, right?
Media was pretending that McCain was gonna have a tough go of this, but that's that's just them trying to make a horse race off it.
It's late in the summer, you know.
Now's when you start seeing the news stories about you know the mama duck that's reunited with the baby ducks in the pond, you know, and everyone's oh, because there's nothing else they can talk about.
But we've got a lot of stuff to talk about here.
I got 30 Benghazi-related emails recovered from Hillary's server.
Oh, wait, wait, what?
I thought she turned over all the emails.
My mind is blown.
How is this possible?
So we got Hillary emails to discuss.
We got Clinton Foundation Business, Clinton Incorporated, a whole lot more.
