Media Is Desperate for a Scalp, and Bannon’s Will Do
RUSH: This is the kind of stuff that Bannon supporters should not be saying. This is not cool. This is positioning Bannon as the reason Trump's who he is. This positions Bannon as the guy who makes Trump possible.
Drive-Bys Credit Obama for Failed Nork Missile
RUSH: The ChiComs were supposed to make mincemeat of Trump. And it turns out that the Norks are losing patronage from the ChiComs because the ChiComs told the Norks not to do another nuke test, and the Norks didn’t. They didn’t do another nuke test, as they had promised. Instead, they launched one of their medium range, a new medium range ballistic missile in celebration of this gigantic parade the little potbellied dictator presided over. And that’s the missile that blew up within seconds of launching.
Rush 24/7 Stack of Stuff
RUSH: No longer is this just gonna be a long list of stories that I might mention on the program. Now, you will get specifically the stories that I talk about on the program and a select list of a few others that I intended to get to but ran out of time. It's going to be more of a real-time base feature rather than just a generic list of places that I go to prep the show.
Rush 24/7 Morning Update: Extra Security
RUSH: The danger is real. The vicious left is exploding in unhinged fury and the Drive-By Media continues to help foment the hate.
Peace Through Desalinization?
RUSH: This is a fascinating premise, but the desalinization of saltwater, you know, this is now done by nuclear reactor on our nuclear subs.
Democrats Turn Introspective
RUSH: The Democrats are being introspective for the first time in a long time about why they keep losing. And man, oh, man, Andrew Sullivan has a piece asking: Why does everybody feel so sorry for Hillary Clinton?
Young Listener Seeks Advice on Standing Up to Conventional Wisdom
RUSH: My instincts have always been conservative. I have never wavered from them in any way. My core beliefs are what they've always been, and they've never been negotiable or up for grabs. I've never been tempted. I've never believed I was wrong. Meaning, I've never believed that I made the wrong choice in matters of ideology.
Trump’s Policies Are Popular
CALLER: A quick observation and a very short prediction. You astutely pointed out in November that Barack Obama was very popular, had high personal approval ratings, yet his policies were unpopular. And my observation is, I think Trump, although his personal approval ratings are slightly improving, it doesn't really matter. People like his policies.
Where Were All the Stories on Obama’s Aides?
RUSH: How much did we know about Barack Obama and all the influence? They tried to hide the influence of Bill Ayers. They tried to hide the influence of Bernardine Dohrn. They tried to hide the influence of Rashid Khalidi. The LA Times still will not release a tape of Khalidi endorsing Obama back in 2008 at a luncheon, and this was one of the biggest anti-Israeli screeds that somebody supposedly made.
My Brother’s New Book: The True Jesus
RUSH: My brother has become devotedly Christian and religious, and he's fascinated by it in the scholarship sense. He has, like my father, read the Bible numerous times and is constantly seeking to understand it so as to be able to explain it to others and to answer other people's questions. And he's desperately desirous that as many people as possible try to learn the story of Christ and the gospels, as would anybody be who is passionate about anything.
Palace Intrigue at the White House
RUSH: I have never seen a presidential aide or adviser so focused on, so often reported on, as Steve Bannon. I've never seen it. I can't think of any presidential adviser who, by the way, when the subject of the reporting is, "Will this guy last? Can we get rid of this guy? Is this guy losing the power struggle?"
New York Times Bases Story on Our Thursday Show
RUSH: Remember, I opened the program asking a number of you Trump supporters if you're starting to feel betrayed over Trump flip-flopping, apparently, on the Export-Import Bank and what you think he said about not intervening militarily in other countries like Syria and the ChiComs and currency manipulation. The New York Times obviously was listening, because they based a story around the whole premise.
Deep State Environmentalist Wackos at EPA Resist Trump Policies
RUSH: At some point, after 30 years of following all these silly guidelines, you would expect there to be a noticeable reduction in the warming of the planet.
Rush 24/7 Stack of Stuff
RUSH: No longer is this just gonna be a long list of stories that I might mention on the program. Now, you will get specifically the stories that I talk about on the program and a select list of a few others that I intended to get to but ran out of time. It's going to be more of a real-time base feature rather than just a generic list of places that I go to prep the show.
Judge Napolitano Was Right! The World Was Spying on Donald Trump
RUSH: What has now been established, the world was spying on Donald Trump. Obama had seen to it after the Brits clued him in I guess is the timeline this story wants to advance. The world was spying on Trump. And even with all of that Hillary couldn’t win. Even with the establishment of the world aligned against Donald Trump and in support of Hillary Clinton, she couldn’t win.
Rush 24/7 Morning Update: Free Stuff!
RUSH: How can it be that students need ID to get free college money while liberals argue they don’t need ID to vote? Hmmm?
GOP Blogger: Trump’s Flip-Flopping
CALLER: I am a blogger — I'm a political blogger — and I wrote over 200 blogs for this man, for President Trump, in favor of him, on what he campaigned on. And what I'm seeing these past couple weeks, you know, I voted for Team Bannon. I did not vote for the president's daughter; I did not vote for Jared Kushner — two Democrats.
What’s Jen Psaki Trying to Say About Me?
RUSH: It's insider-outsider. I'm not establishment, therefore I don't rate, I don't count in her world. That's what that means. Pure and simple. It's a badge of honor for me, don't misunderstand.
Why the Media Loves the United Story
RUSH: This story has many of the knee-jerk ingredients that make the media breathless with excitement. And so they can't let it go, because it offers an opportunity to characterize certain aspects of America that they politically oppose or disagree with. But, again, this is not to exonerate United. United did what it did and they ordered what happened to happen and so forth. There are consequences to that.
