It’s Tax Cut Tuesday and Nobody Is Happy?
RUSH: Now, you might think that this bill's so unpopular, the Drive-Bys have driven up opposition to this tax cut, the Drive-Bys have driven up opposition to people keeping more of their money. Stop and think about that. Nearly half the country is objecting to keeping more of their own money.
Rich Lowry Discovers Trump’s First Year Was a Huge Success
RUSH: No previous president has been targeted for destruction by what we call the "deep state," the administrative, unelected bureaucracy of this country — staffed by career leftists, socialists, liberals, you name it — working in consort with simpaticos at the Drive-By Media. There isn't a single president in our lifetimes you could name who could have withstood and overcome and triumphed on so much against this kind of opposition, and some are now begrudgingly beginning to recognize it and acknowledge it.
You’ll Be Dazzled by Darkest Hour
RUSH: This gets as close to bringing Churchill to life as anything that I have seen, including John Lithgow in The Crown. This is an entirely different portrayal.
The Latest Developments in the Strzok Affair
RUSH: The Drive-Bys are claiming that the Wall Street Journal piece shows that what Strzok was texting about wasn't so bad after all. They claim he wasn't talking about stopping Trump from winning. No, he was just talking about if Trump wins, we're gonna have to really investigate this clown afterwards. Come on. How stupid do they think we are?
NFL Rolls Out the Red Carpet for Diddy
RUSH: Do you think any NFL owner is gonna stand up and say, "We don't want people like that in our league," like they did with me? You think any of 'em are gonna do that? No. Most of them are gonna fall all over themselves in public talking about how much they love Diddy, they love hanging with Diddy, love Diddying with Diddy, they love going to Jay Z's sports bar with Diddy, they love Diddy's music, they love Diddy's halftime show, they love Diddy. They love Diddy so much they might give him a team.
Tax Cuts Explained
RUSH: There's no such thing as a tax loophole. There are tax provisions. There are tax laws. When you start throwing around the term "tax loophole," you're trying to make people think that people are escaping the tax code, that they're finding a way around the tax code, that they're able to break the law! That's not what tax "loopholes" are.
Caller Doesn’t Want to Defend Trump’s Tweets
RUSH: What it boils down to is that people remain intimidated by liberals, and it's understandable. Liberals destroy property. Liberals get in your face. Liberals are bullies.
Insane CNN Thinks I’m Sending Secret Signals to Trump
RUSH: Hold it a second! Hold it a second! Wait a second! What did he say there?
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: Everyone Knows!
RUSH: Now with the individual mandate on the chopping block, blue-state liberal Democrats are afraid that forcing people to buy Obamacare in their states could cost them their jobs? What does that tell you? It tells you Obamacare has been a disaster from Day 1 and everybody knew it and still knows it!
Mueller and His Team Are Discrediting Themselves
RUSH: Trump isn't discrediting Mueller. Trump doesn't have to discredit Mueller. Mueller is discrediting Mueller and all the people that work for him are discrediting this investigation.
Meanwhile, Donald Trump Is Turning America Around
RUSH: Let me just run some other things by you real quickly. None of this — none of this — is reported in the media, but this is real on-the-ground news, despite what you are hearing from propaganda media.
Politico Bombshell Nobody Will Read: Obama Let Hezbollah Run Cocaine Into the U.S.
RUSH: The headline: "Obama Let Hezbollah Run Cocaine into the U.S. in Order to Facilitate the Iran Deal Getting Done." I'm gonna tell you, the damage this man and his administration have done to this country is still largely unknown, and it will continue to dribble out, and we will have more revelations of it.
Amtrak Train Derails South of Tacoma
RUSH: It happened right in the heat of the morning rush hour out there, and it's a devastating circumstance.
The Steelers Lost That Game Before the Jesse James Play
RUSH: Jesse James, No. 81, tight end for the Steelers caught the pass untouched. He went to his knees. He was down. He had not been touched. He lunged over the goal line; the ball crosses the plane. As he touches the ground, the ball jostled a bit and they said, "No touchdown." That is the rule, and it's only in the NFL that's not a touchdown. But, folks, that's not where the Steelers lost that game, I'm sorry to tell you.
Do You Still Have the Internet?
RUSH: By this time, major conglomerates were supposed to have taken over the internet and either charged you more than you could afford, and if you couldn't pay it, your service would be canceled and you'd be frozen out. But you're still able to go online, aren't you? Just a little reminder.
Dems Defend the Blue-State Rich Against Tax Increases
RUSH: "State And Local Taxes," known as SALT. I heard the caller mention it, told him it was ironic. Dianne Feinstein is defending the wealthy against tax increases in the Trump tax reform bill.
Ali Velshi Schooled on Net Neutrality
RUSH: He's interviewing Robert McDowell on PMSNBC, the former FCC commissioner, who is just making mincemeat of this guy Velshi. Velshi knows it but he doesn't think anybody else does, and so he's trying to cover up for that. More in a moment.
My Instinctive Reaction to Trump’s America First Speech
RUSH: This speech, it sounds to me — just on these little one-line excerpts I'm seeing — was just fabulous. He said, "We're leaving an unfair climate accord. We're not getting into bad trade deals." But he focused on the great things that happen as a result of America getting wealthier, in terms of worldwide leadership and inspiration.
Rumor: Trump Says Mueller Will Write Letter to Exonerate Him
RUSH: If Trump believes the public opinion polls, and Mueller's not doing well in these public opinion polls, this investigation is not polling well. If Trump believes that whatever this investigation produces that 45, 48% of the American people are not gonna believe it, why tamper with that?
