Time Text
Okay, grab those Colin Capernick sound bites.
I'm gonna I'm gonna play these before we get on to other stuff here.
I've got stuff here I want to get into that has nothing to do with the campaign, too.
There's all kinds of great crazy stuff happening out there, folks.
That and by the way, there's now.
I just want to mention this because this is one of those things that if something comes of it, I don't want it said that I didn't mention it.
But I'm not gonna make a big deal of it.
I'm just telling there is a website out there that claims Hillary was sending signals to Lester Holt by virtue of scratching her face with her finger during the debate.
Now these things always happen.
There are also stories, I've seen them that she was wearing something under her jacket that you'll only see from behind that looked like it would have been a power supply with a cable running up the back to maybe an earpiece.
These things.
Well, what back brace, I think it maybe it might have been, if it was anything, it was medicine that was being injected now and then to keep her vertical.
Hey, look, if any if if they're gonna do this, I'm gonna get in on a game.
But seriously, there is a I mean, even some leftists, from what I'm told, are acknowledging that Hillary was sending Lester Holt hand signals.
Now, I don't know any more it I imagine that when she really wanted Holt to zero in on Trump on something, she would start scratching her face.
Apparently the video shows her scratching her face quite a lot.
The observation I have about this is all this stuff, there's none none of this stuff is being accused of Trump.
Trump is not being accused of any of this stuff, but Hillary's being accused of a lot of it.
I don't know, there's a part of me is if this happens to be true, I just don't want you to say that you didn't hear about it here.
But I'm not gonna say any more than that.
And I'm not advocating it, I'm not promoting it, I'm not endorsing it, I'm not confirming it because I don't know.
I just it's it's a website that a lot of you read, probably.
It's claiming to interpret the video.
I really didn't even spend much time looking at it.
Um but I wanted to mention it.
Uh, what else is there?
One other thing about nope, that's it.
That's it.
Okay, Colin Capernick.
We just had a lengthy discussion here about the NFL and their uniform police.
I'm I don't know how many of you people were not aware of that, by the way.
I gather from my email that I checked during the break that a lot of people were not aware of how strictly the NFL polices the uniform and its proper display, but they do.
I mean, they they ride herd on this.
And they find players that threaten them, and the story is Antonio Brown, number 84, the Pittsburgh Steelers, was told he can't play the second half if he didn't change shoes.
So a caller said, Imagine that.
Here we got him telling a player for the Steelers he can't play if he didn't change his shoes, and then when Capernick comes out and does whatever he does, there's nobody says he can't do it.
Well, one of them is a pregame thing that doesn't involve the field of play and the game, and the other one does.
It's probably how the NFL would explain it.
But I still think the the real point here is that while everybody in the NFL says we can't we can't tell these players what to do.
We can't tell them to stand for the anthem or not.
We can't tell them to not put their fists in the ear.
We can't tell them not to take any.
We can't, I mean, that's personal.
We can't wear.
But you let them have their socks at the wrong height, and the NFL will tell them what for and threaten them with fines and who knows what.
They tell them what time they gotta go to bed during training camp.
They tell them what kind of drugs they can and can't take, steroids, PEDs, human growth hormone.
They got all kinds of cants that you can't do in the NFL.
But when it comes to what some people think is trashing the country, oh, we can't interfere.
We can't even.
So Kaepernick, the second string quarterback for the San Francisco Fortnitors got all this started, as you know.
And once you start, he's on the cover of Time Magazine.
Well, once that happens to you, you gotta stay on a roll.
He's a second string quarterback.
He's still not starting.
It hasn't, it hasn't helped him moved up the depth chart, uh depth chart on the Fordiners, but now he's got to keep it going.
And here is how.
This was yesterday at the Fordiner Practice Facility in Santa Clara.
Capernick spoke with reporters about the uh do we have what he said about the let's see.
Yeah, we do.
It's the second bite, what he said about the debate.
But here is Capernick soundbite number one.
He always says, make America great again.
Well, America's never been great for people of color.
And you know, that's something that needs to be addressed.
Let's make America great for the first time.
Okay, so there you have it.
I mean, this this is the left point of view.
I have gotten hoarse over the course of many years attempting to explain to people how the left views this country.
Obama's one of these guys.
America, America's America's never been great.
Look, even now at protests, Ferguson uh in Baltimore in Charlotte.
If you look carefully, you'll see a bunch of people carrying signs.
America has never been great.
America's not great, America isn't great, America's never been great.
So here now, the second string quarterback for the San Francisco Fordiners ripping Trump who says, Let's make America great again.
Well, America's never been great.
Never been great for black people.
We got a start on that.
People of color, he said.
It's never been great.
Do you think that's disgraceful?
Denegrates the memory of and the achievement of every black person who has ever achieved anything.
Oh, you can't say he's ignorant.
You can't, you can't criticize he's entitled not to know the history of this country.
He's an American.
He's entitled to his ignorance.
And he's entitled to have his views rooted in his ignorance.
He's entitled by virtue of the First Amendment to say and do whatever he wants, is what people think.
No, you can't say that either.
You can't say that Colin Kaepernick is an ingrate, and you can't say that he's disgraceful.
I mean, that the popular consensus is you can't say that.
Well, here's the next bite.
Again, at the Fordiner Practice Facility in Santa Clara, speaking with reporters about the presidential debate.
To me, it was embarrassing to watch that these are two candidates.
Both are proven liars, and you know, it almost seems like they're trying to debate who's less racist.
And no, at this point, uh talking with one of my friends.
You have to pick the lesser of two evils, but in the end is still evil.
So there you have it, Colin Capernick of the San Francisco Fordiners, the latest expert on American culture.
Uh now analyzing, hey, you can't be critical of him.
He's a First Amendment.
He can think whatever he wants to think about the debate, and he can say whatever he wants.
Nobody's saying he can't.
People, I'm sure.
In fact, I saw this comment.
I first saw about this, saw this on a sports blog.
And I decided I'm gonna read the comments here.
I'm gonna go to the sewer.
Because that's what the comments section at websites is a sewer.
So I went there.
And there were a surprising number of people in the comments of this particular website was uh NBC Sports Talk, I think, that say, hey, you know, this is the smartest thing, the guy said yet.
That neither one of these two are worth anything.
Trump, Hillary, they're both lacking.
He had a lot of support for that statement in the comments section of the blog that uh, Mr. Snerdley has just officially announced, and I'm passing it on for him since there's no microphone in there, that um he's not gonna be watching the Fordiners as long as Capernick is on a team.
Do you think, since I have your attention, Mr. Snerdley, and you're taking a break from screening calls, do you think that this may be a contributing factor to the ratings problem NFLs that you do?
No question about it.
And 9-11 and more and more teams have started doing their own versions of what Capernick did, taking a knee, sitting.
On the Monday night game that nobody saw because of the debate was the Atlanta Falcons and the New Orleans Saints.
And after the anthem, both teams went on the field and formed a giant circle, linked arm in arm.
They didn't take a knee, they weren't sitting.
There was supposedly a unified display of something.
But now it's happening in high schools, junior high schools.
I read that it's even happening in a 12-year-old football league.
That players are deciding to do this.
Well, we shall see.
Okay, uh news that has nothing to do with the campaign.
I've just got to get some of these things in.
First off, your astrological sign just changed according to NASA.
NASA, for the first time in 3,000 years, decided to update the astrological signs, which means that the majority of people are about to find out that they are a different sign.
Apparently these changes are due to the fact that the constellations are not in the same position in the sky that they once were.
And the star signs are about a month off now, as a result.
And to further confuse things, there's now a new sign, the 13th sign.
For those born between November 29th and December 17th, a lot of those used to be Sagittarius, but no more.
The uh the new sign, the new 13th sign, is Ophiucus.
It's OPHIUCHUS.
Aphiukis rhymes with Mucus.
Capricorn.
So I am January 12th, so the name's uh all my life I've been a Capricorn, but but but I'm I'm not anymore.
Capricorn's now January 20th to February 16th.
So that makes me a Sagittarius.
Which is a problem because Capricorns and Sagittarians are not supposed to get along with each other, which means I am not going to get along with myself now.
I'm just saying I'm I'm not making this up.
There's two different stories on this out there now, and it's all because of NASA.
Dating website is from the UK Sun.
A it's actually about Los Angeles.
The dating website named Beautiful People is going to open a Los Angeles club where guests are vetted to ensure they are attractive enough.
A dating website opening an exclusive new club where you get adult beverages and stuff.
Every guest is going to be vetted to ensure they are attractive enough to enter.
Beautifulpeople.com.
Am I prescient or what?
Who was it long ago who first sounded the alarms about the attempts to ban the ugly from public places in the daytime.
And now it's even happening at night.
A dating website opening an exclusive new club, every guest is going to be vetted.
The membership committee, the people who will decide which of the applicants are good looking enough to be allowed in, are celebrity trainers, models, actors, and directors based in Los Angeles.
And many of the members will have to be recommended by these people.
If you happen to want to join this club, related to beautifulpeople.com, if you just walk in off the street, you are going to have to be vetted as to whether you're attractive or not, or too ugly to be allowed to join.
And I'm just, I just want to remind you, it was I who warned every way back in the 1980s about this.
And then finally, from the Los Angeles, no, it's a Hollywood reporter.
A story about the super rich on the left coast, primarily in Los Angeles.
Oscar winners, sports stars, tech billionaires like Bill Gates, are now building lavish underground bunkers with amenities ranging from swimming pools to bowling alleys as anxiety over climate change fuels people's concern over whether or not the surface of the earth will be habitable.
I am not kidding.
People are spending millions of dollars effectively building new houses underground because of the potential destructive aspects of climate change.
Oh, and nuclear Holocaust.
They throw that in there too.
And it's a long story, and it details some of the people doing this and what they're doing and how much they're spending, and how they are working hard to keep it secret so that nobody will know they have this, so that nobody will try to get in.
At the moment, climate change renders the earth uninhabitable.
I'm telling you folks, and you couple this with this guy, Elon Musk.
I know he's a hero to people.
But you realize now how many of these clowns think, and Stephen Hawking is one of them, the only hope that civilization has, the only hope, because of climate change, is colonizing Mars.
Or an asteroid, or the moon.
Whatever it is, we have got to get out of here.
We have got to get off this planet.
And of course, as the sun comes up in the morning and goes down in the evening, there are people signing up and buying into this, hook line, and checkbook.
Climate change.
Yep, we've got to escape.
We've got to go to Mars.
Where there isn't a climate, by the way.
And there's a warning.
I think this is Elon Musk, but I'm not sure.
He's the Tesla inventor.
Mr. Subsidy.
Not supposed to say that.
Some one of these guys is saying that the first explorers on their way to Mars had better be prepared to die.
Because the first people to make a trip are going to die.
It's part of the plan.
It's part there's there will not be a way to survive.
That is part of the pioneering aspect of this.
Now, by the way, NASA on this on this astrological sign business, in this story, NASA assured everybody that astrology is not real science.
And not to be concerned about this.
But, of course, climate change is.
It is.
There's a consensus out there.
Here's Christopher in San Francisco.
Christopher, it's great to have you.
Welcome to the program.
Hey, thanks, Rush.
I had heard that Hillary's team had developed a psychological profile of Trump before the debate.
And I'd heard that there had been trigger words used, you know, talk about his father.
But I got interested in that.
And I think she referred to it as manhood during the discussion of nuclear weapons.
Using trigger words like fingers, tweet, and hands.
I can quote the section if you'd like.
Fingers, tweet, and hands.
You think that she was uh she was uh trying to signal that uh Trump has not got a nice package.
Well, doing the doing the thing that uh went back and forth with uh Rubio.
Right.
Because he apparently back in the 90s, uh New York magazine wrote an article calling him a short-fingered Sengali.
And uh I guess it's uh it's an issue with him.
She said, so a man who could be provoked by a tweet should not have his fingers anywhere near the nuclear code.
Right.
Well, maybe, although it look, you could be right about this.
I I didn't notice any of this, because it's not a problem.
So I uh I'm not sensitive to this kind of thing.
But the it it was always said of Reagan that we don't want to let his finger nick nick next to the nuclear button either.
So it it could well be uh that she was just trying to make a comment about his lack of uh preparedness or maturity or what have you.
I I don't you may actually be right.
I mean, if anybody would know about these kind of it'd be Hillary, she's the one with the testicle lockbox.
So which has been documented, by the way.
We joke about it, but uh that's the effect that uh she has a nurse ratchet type effect.
I don't think it worked on Trump, obviously.
But I appreciate the uh call, Christopher.
Thanks much.
Okay, folks, we got one half hour left, and there's still tons to try to get in here, plus your phone calls.
So stay there.
Serving humanity simply by showing up and having more fun than a human being should be allowed to have.
Great to have you with us, Rush Limboy here behind the golden EIB microphone.
Apparently Obama is livid over this Senate override of his veto.
He's saying that this is the uh most embarrassing thing the Senate's done in 20 or 30 years, overriding his veto.
This is the bill that would prevent lawsuits against the Saudis by families of victims of 9-11.
And Obama apparently has taken this as a major diss.
A major sign of disrespect now.
You know what happens when certain people get dissed and the way they lash out.
This is something to keep a sharp eye on.
Okay, I've I've got a whole stack.
I mentioned this at the top of the program.
I I'm I'm fascinated that this has become the centerpiece today, or at least it was this morning, of the presidential campaign.
This former Miss Universe, this Alicia Merchado, apparently has been on the Hillary staff, apparently been part of the campaign, and providing comments on Trump.
He owned the Miss Universe pageant.
She was a Miss Universe.
He called her uh little piggy or Miss Piggy because she gained sixty pounds after she won the crown.
And she apparently is uh not a nice person, and she'd been insulting Melania Trump and Donald Trump at any number of things, and Hillary has this babe.
She's also a porn star, has this babe on her staff.
Uh Alicia Machado's films are indeed pornography, and the Clinton campaign is putting her in an online fundraising appeal.
And Hillary herself is tweeting about Alicia Machado.
Now you talk about lousy judgment.
You know, they they want to try to portray Trump as having no judgment, lousy judgment.
Uh it's so bad.
We can't dare have Trump in the Oval Office with his finger next to the nuclear button or anything like that.
We just we just can't do it.
Can you imagine in our usual reversal example?
You imagine if Trump had hired A porn star and was using the porn star for source material and dirt on Hillary and was tweeting about her.
Can you imagine?
The questions that would be asked and the accusations that would be thrown out about Trump's lack of judgment.
The news stories on this, I it is a huge stack.
Let me just give you some headlines here.
Daily caller, porn star campaigns for Hillary Clinton.
AP and Reuters via the Daily Mail.
Miss Universe, fat shamed by Donald Trump, was accused of threatening to kill a judge and being an accomplice to a murder bid in her native Venezuela.
A former Miss Universe at the center of a bitter exchange in Monday's presidential debate was accused of aiding a would-be murderer and threatening to kill a judge, it has emerged.
On Tuesday, Alicia Machado launched her own attack on Trump, accusing him of abuse and stupid things.
But there are two associated press reports back in 1998.
And they reveal that Alicia Machato was accused of aiding attempted murder and threats to kill in Venezuela.
The DailyMail.com has asked the Clinton campaign whether they knew about these allegations, which do not appear to have uh ended in conviction before the candidate spoke about her at the debate.
Hillary brought this woman up, a porn star to use her as a way of going after Trump.
He's called women pigs, he's called women this, he's called women that.
I'm saying she I still maintain that she doesn't have anything.
If that's Michelle Obama out there today, uh pitching Hillary in in Philadelphia by essentially saying you've got to elect her because of Trump.
You've got to elect her because of Trump, and you got to elect her because she's a woman, and that's all they have.
They pulled out of Ohio, although now I'm making a big deal of it.
Don't be surprised if they go back into Ohio with a little ad by.
Don't be surprised.
They kind of snuck out of Ohio.
Ohio, the Hillary campaign snuck out of, as though they think it's irretrievable.
You're having trouble with African American polling in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, and in Florida.
That's why they had to send Michelle Obama out there to help drum up black vote support for Hillary because she can't do it on her own.
Obviously.
And now they're using this Machado babe, this former Miss Universe, as a way to go after Trump.
I don't know.
I there are things that happen in every campaign that I I just I say to myself, this is never going to work.
And I'm often wrong about.
They do.
I thought, to give you an example of what I'm talking about in 2000, the Friday before the election, the big so-called October surprise, the news that George W. Bush had a DWI, or a DUI would have been.
thought, that's not going to matter for crying out loud.
And it might have.
There were a lot of people who said that George Bush had a sizable, comfortable lead.
And when that news leaked, a lot of people abandoned him.
I...
I have trouble understanding that, but they say it did.
Daily Mail.
Now Miss Piggy says Donald Trump used racist slurs when talking about African Americans and that she can speak better English than Melania.
Alicia Machato said in an interview with Natalie Morales, if Donald Trump used racial slurs while speaking about African Americans, the 38-year-old would not repeat what Trump said.
He said she explained because it's too much rude for the black community, and I respect a lot of things.
She also said about Trump's feelings about the black community, he don't like that people.
Come on.
And this woman is a Hillary Clinton source authority.
Alicia Machato has said in the past that Trump called her Miss Piggy, Miss Housekeeping and Miss Eating Machine.
She also revealed that she had no idea that Clinton would be sharing her story during Monday night's debate.
Machado criticized Melania Trump in an interview today saying, or Tuesday yesterday, saying, I think I speak more English than her.
Trump didn't deny the Miss Piggy thing, right?
He said she gained 60 pounds.
She got fat.
Isn't that what he said?
Pretty much, did you say?
Yeah, I I I'm not I don't think he denied it.
I hey it was it was his pageant, and she was blowing it sky high.
The reputation, I mean.
New York Times, shamed and angry.
Alicia Machado, a Miss Universe mocked by Donald Trump.
On Monday night, Hillary Clinton turned Ms. Machado's pain into a potent political weapon on the biggest stage.
That's just that's the New York.
That's why I can't stand this paper.
It's just it's rot gut BS.
The New York Times has one of the most partisan readerships.
Everybody talks about the New York Times as a newspaper of record.
It's it's its reader base is 99% leftist extremist.
Ex Ms. Universe accused of threat.
This is the threat on the judge.
Porn Star campaigns for Hillary Clinton, the Daily Caller.
It's just a it's a huge stack of news here about this.
Anyway, uh we need to take another brief obscene profit break.
We'll do that and we'll come back and resume with you on the phones.
So don't go away.
This is Kathy in Columbus, Ohio.
Great to have you on the EIB network.
Hello.
Hey, Rush.
How are you doing today?
Doing great, thank you.
Great, great.
Um so I've been wanting to give you a call for a few months, um, just with a funny family story.
Okay.
Um earlier this summer, we had a left coast loose state relative visit the family, and she seemed to have a personal mission to suppress our votes um in the upcoming election.
Um she encouraged us all to to sit this one out, um, not to vote at all.
Um she also told my 18-year-old daughter who will be a first-time voter that she was too young to understand the issues and that she should sit it out as well.
Wait a minute.
Who who who who was this?
What what family relation was this?
Uh, this was an aunt.
An aunt.
Yes.
So the sister of uh Well, okay, so this aunt shows up from the left coast and starts dictating to your family about how they should vote, whether they should vote, and then tells your 18-year-old daughter that she's too stupid yet to vote.
Pretty much, yes.
What did you do?
You know, she's the type of person you just kind of nod and go along with and then you know, do what you were going to do anyway.
You don't in other words, you do not engage, don't argue with her because it's pointless.
Right, pretty much, yes.
So what happened?
You know, we just you know waited a few days for her visit to conclude.
And you know, we all, of course, plan to vote and not sit out of uh.
Okay, so she's she she decamped, but she failed in her effort to suppress your votes.
She will not suppress our votes.
I can't.
I actually can.
I mean, I I know people like this.
The arrogance and conceit to bop in from the left coast, that already makes her better than you.
I mean, here you are, you're in the heartland, you're Columbus.
And she bops in for the left coast and starts commanding all of you plebes to sit it out because your lack of knowledge and intelligence is too dangerous for the country right now.
So the best thing you could do is just not vote.
Right.
Is she the only family member of the leftist persuasion?
No, we have a few others.
Um and quite honestly, my father will swing back and forth from party to party depending on how he's feeling that particular election cycle.
Yeah.
How old was this uh the aunt?
How old was she?
Um she is in her sixties.
In her sixties.
Okay.
And so you didn't argue with her.
You didn't you didn't even engage her.
You just let her flap her gums and then let her leave town thinking that she'd been persuasive.
I think so.
That's a very that's a very wise way of dealing with this.
Uh if you if you don't want to engage her and she's not gonna change your mind, it's family, it's not worth the potential friction by telling her to pound sand.
Correct.
But it was interesting.
I I did resent, you know, being told to sit it out.
Oh hell yes, I'm sure you resented it.
Was she let me ask this.
Is she in any way persuasive?
Was she in any way persuasive?
No, not at all.
Good.
Good.
And it doesn't surprise me at all, these kind of people out there.
But look at scared.
Scared.
Afraid.
And she knows the importance of Ohio.
Imagine what your aunt thought when she found out, if she knows, that Hillary has pulled out of Ohio.
Okay, folks, that's it for today.
Another exciting excursion to broadcast excellence.
Unfortunately has come to a screeching halt.
But we are back tomorrow.
I really appreciate your being with us today and every day.
Look forward to it like you can't believe, and am doing the same for tomorrow.
