Welcome to today's edition of the Rush Limbaugh Show podcast and greetings, folks. I tell you, if there was ever a day for making the complex understandable, this is it. This day is going to be a challenge for your guiding light is going to be a challenge for your beloved host. There's going to be a challenge for me. Yeah. Yeah. All this Biden stuff and all this Biden stuff in the censorship and what's going on, what's causing it.

[00:00:28]

It's it's it's breathtaking. It is voter suppression. It's election interference. It's it's it's it's so much worse than what was even alleged about Trump having done with the Russians. And you need to try to understand this. It's not sexy, but you need to try to understand it. Know a lot of people. I find that when when political complaints of Democrats are made, they they kind of go.

[00:00:59]

They get bored. They don't think Democrats are ever going to be held accountable to anything, so it just goes in one ear and out the other and it's it's the result of conditioning. This is different what Biden and his son, Hunter, have been up to here to think Hillary Clinton on steroids with the emails and even that they had a tough time making that sexy or understandable. That is my job today. It's a job I've given myself. It's a job I've assigned myself.

[00:01:32]

And I will take some time doing it, you know? Ladies and gentlemen, great to have you. By the way, the telephone number is 800 202 eight eight.

[00:01:41]

And the email address, L Rush Rushville at I.B. Net Dot USA. The Senate Judiciary Committee hearings today continued on Judge Barat. And today, it was basically the Democrats whining and moaning about how unfair it is that they can't stop her. And how the Republicans want to stop it, you just stop this till after the election, it is not fair. It just isn't fair. And this is not what the Constitution meant and blah, blah, just a bunch of bleeding and complaining and whining.

[00:02:14]

Or she going to kill health care for everybody. She's going to kill abortion for everybody. You guys are horrible. You guys are right. And the Republicans just sat there and let them bleed.

[00:02:25]

Which they did. Now it's a bunch of character witnesses, pro and con, coming up. As the part of the process that we the test, I mean, the opponents here get their shot. And destroying the character and the reputation of a fine woman. Who's never done anything to anybody? She's just a brilliant, brilliant woman of the law.

[00:02:52]

And I have to share with you a oh, you know what happened to me? I mean, I got a phone call today. From an elite member of the drive, by media, I mean a top tier. Elite member of the drive by me, actually, I got a phone call from the office saying that this elite member of the drive by media needed five minutes of my time, could be off the record if I wanted.

[00:03:21]

I said, what about? On a personal well, I don't know why would you find out I don't. I don't want to take a phone call without knowing what the hell so what it was. What it was, the the elitist member of the drive by media wants to ask me, I didn't didn't talk to her. She she has a question for me. Will I urge my listeners to remain calm? While the vote returns are being counted on election night.

[00:04:09]

She is. Assuming that the. Results might not be available on election night or in the first few days because the drive bys have gotten themselves believing that the results are not going to be counted because all the mail in ballots, because of all of a. Absentees and so forth, they've got themselves convinced that Trump is going to on election night, may end up winning in a landslide. By the time they count all these other things, Trump's going to lose.

[00:04:40]

So she wants to talk to me about whether or not I'm going to urge you to be adults. Whether I'm going to urge you to remain calm. And to not raise hell. Like I've done so many times, like like when is the last time I urged any mass behavior on the part of anybody in this audience answer? It doesn't happen. I don't do it. Now, this elite member of the drive by media obviously doesn't know this because I'm being lumped in with whatever they think.

[00:05:26]

The alternative so-called conservative talk radio media is. I mean, one, an insulting question, will you urge your listeners to remain calm? How about you? What the hell are you doing to keep people calm now you people are raising holy hell out there right now in the drive by media, you guys are doing more to keep this country at a fever pitch of unrest than any time I've ever seen. You guys are zeroing in on the Trump campaign on Donald Trump personally.

[00:06:01]

You have got a search and destroy mission underway. You have shown you're not going to let up on this. And yet you call and ask me if I am going to ask my listeners to remain calm, as though, by the way, my listeners are a bunch of mind numbed robots.

[00:06:21]

Who take actual life behavior, marching orders from me. As you well know, I don't look at you all this way. I don't have the slightest. Intent of cautioning you how to behave, ladies and gentlemen, let's remain calm, let's make sure we don't embarrass ourselves. Let's make sure that we don't raise hell about the election. I would never even occur to me. And I don't they have no idea how insulting the. The question actually is, no, no, no, I'm not going to it doesn't it doesn't matter who it is, you can take your pick.

[00:07:06]

It could be any of them out there. Now back to the Senate Judiciary Committee hearings, have audio, somebody standing, a number 14 standing by. The Democrats are whining and moaning about how unfair it all is because they can't stop Judge Barritt. They think it's a travesty of a constitution. This is going forward. It's an absolute disservice to the Senate. It's one of the most embarrassing moments in the Senate's history. How dare you Republicans be doing all this?

[00:07:34]

And at one point, Senator Graham, the chairman of the committee, I guess, had had his fill of this.

[00:07:41]

He's speaking to Senator Meehan, Amy Klobuchar. About the nomination of Amy CONI Barrett, this is how it sounded. Listen, Republicans generally look at people of a disposition like Judge Barrett. Democrats generally look at people of a disposition like Justice Sotomayor and Kagan. You all have a good chance of winning the White House. I don't know where the polls are going to be.

[00:08:07]

Thank you for acknowledging that. Yeah, I think I think it's true. So he just he just this morning, he just told them. He is told to try to calm them down, don't worry, you guys are going to win the White House. And Amy Klobuchar, you heard her say thank you for acknowledging that.

[00:08:25]

What? What's the problem with acknowledging it just kind of feeds into the argument that they shouldn't be confirming her? If the Democrat this is their whole argument, their whole argument is that this nomination shouldn't be going forward, that it ought to be the next president making the nomination. And that's because they think Biden's going to win, but it's also because they don't want Amy CONI buried anywhere near the Supreme Court. So, no, I don't think they're going to change anything, it's just it's just.

[00:09:04]

He's given them fuel for the fire here. Y'all have a good chance of winning the White House. I don't know where the polls are going to be. Thank you for acknowledging that. Yeah.

[00:09:15]

Yeah, I think it's true, said Chairman Graham. I think it's true you all have a good chance of winning the White House. Well, when they hear of that. They say that involved then, shouldn't you bring a screeching halt to these proceedings if you acknowledge that the president who nominated her is not going to win, that that's going to be a repudiation of him and everything he's done, that's where they're going. That's how they're going to use this if they do.

[00:09:46]

But the Constitution is clear, Trump is the guy who makes the choice, Trump is the guy constitutionally who makes the choice. The controlling election on this nomination is 2016. It's not the election in 20 days or however many days. It is the controlling election for judicial nominees like Amy CONI Barrett is the one in 2016. Trump was elected by the people twenty sixteen president served for four years during that four year term. Ruth Bader Ginsburg passed away, creating an opening the president of the United States.

[00:10:22]

Donald Trump is empowered, in fact, duly constitutionally required. To choose a replacement and the Senate's role is just to advise and consent, and that's it. There's nothing about waiting for the next election if it happens, if it's real close. Nothing like that at all. That's just a Democrat made argument. By the way, polling data shows that the people are just. Really jumping in favor of her public support for Barrett's confirmation has shot up. New survey data shows public support for Jamie coni Barron's confirmation of Supreme Court steadily rising.

[00:11:10]

A morning consult, political poll released. Yesterday found 48 percent of respondents favor her conversation, a confirmation, just 31 percent oppose. That's up 11 points.

[00:11:27]

From the announcement of her nomination on September 26. So Americans watched. The legalized abuse of an extraordinarily qualified judge and extraordinary women woman, they rejected the abusers, they have embraced the victim of the Democrat abuse, Amy CONI Barritt. But look at who applauded the abuse, opposition to her nomination is strongest among Democrat women at 59 percent. Women overall favor Amy Connie Barrett, 40 to 35.

[00:12:08]

You break it down by party. 59 percent of Democrat women opposed her nomination. Democrat women, I'd love to know. How many of them attended college, how many were indoctrinated with hate? And believe me, they have been and they they are being. It's sad, it's sad, so many people, young people being indoctrinated with full fledged hate. They're given very little choice. I mean, they're being told that America is a nation of systemic racism.

[00:12:48]

I mean, systemic means it's built in means there's nothing you can do to get rid of it means it's there from the very first day. And there's nothing good about racism. So these young people have been taught this garbage. And if they believe it, then they think they're supporting a racist nation and they don't want to have to do that and end up hating it, and that's that's that's where they are.

[00:13:18]

We've seen this women all summer. They can't think clearly they're so consumed with this, hey, it's not just women either. They've got hold of a bunch of young men as well. But they are so consumed with hate. They can't see a stellar candidate for the Supreme Court when she's on television knocking every exchange out of the park.

[00:13:43]

Now, by the way, these are not these are not feminists who hate. Amy, Connie Barrett, these are fascists, I'm sorry, but it's true they are mind numbed robots. Now, folks, you and I know that President Trump. Is up against a lot of opposition. He's up against quite a lot of unfair. Opposition, he's being opposed by tech, oligarchy's, tech monopolies that are aligned with the communist Chinese government.

[00:14:22]

He's opposed by the Democrat Party, which is aligned with the communist government in China. By association is opposed by unilaterally people in the mainstream media, according to the mainstream media, does not cover a single amazing accomplishment of Donald Trump.

[00:14:46]

In fact, they ridicule and berate the man continually. The average ordinary American. Who does it really pay attention to politics or listen to shows like this one may only hear headlines like, Wow, I don't like this guy. This guy's a reprobate man. This guy's sick. Oh, my God, I can't stand this guy.

[00:15:09]

We all need to constantly fight back against this.

[00:15:16]

We all need to fight for President Trump because in so doing. We are fighting for the concept. That our nation is good, that our nation is decent. We are opposing the concept that America is bad. That America is systemically bad, we have to oppose this, we have to stand against it. We have to fight for President Trump is the only way we can fight for our country, it is the only way we can preserve the American way of life and is the only way.

[00:16:00]

That we can hold on to the country we were given when we grew up, the only way we can hold on.

[00:16:10]

To the greatest country and the last great hope. On Earth, so get out in your communities and get the older population turned out, get them out there to vote, take them to voting booths, help them with mail in ballots, rock the oldies vote. Older populations know the vital importance of preserving the America we all know. They need to know the stakes. Now, take a break. We'll be back. We will continue right after this. Don't go away.

[00:16:41]

All right. The Democrats have a little half baked podcast out there. They think the greatest thing under the sun, it's called God Save America. One of the causes is radical leftist little guy named Tommy Vietor. And he's got former President Barack Hussein o- on.

[00:17:02]

As a guest, here's the question, there's this debate about whether Trump is an aberration or whether he's the next phase of a Republican Party that's been built on racial grievance, built on cruelty to immigrants and Fox News conspiracy theories. And we all hope the Republican fever would break after the 2012 re-election. Clearly, it didn't. Things have gotten worse. Do you, Mr. Obama, have a view on this debate about whether Trump is an aberration?

[00:17:30]

I did well in a bunch of white evangelical counties, rural counties that I think is fair to say there's no way right now that I could get those votes right. And the reason is because they see me only through the filter of Fox News, Rush Limbaugh, those folks right now are just being fed. What's coming through that filter? If they were watching Walter Cronkite, then you could, in fact, have just the normal debates. And in that circumstance, a democracy works.

[00:18:03]

Trump is expressing or mirroring and in some ways explicitly exploited and took on the crazy that was being pumped out through these venues each and every day.

[00:18:18]

So there's crazy here on this program. And Trump has kind of taken it on. And if we just had Walter Cronkite, you said Walter Cronkite back then, none of this would matter when Walter Cronkite back then, we would have a media monopoly as well. If we had Walter Cronkite back, there wouldn't be Rush Limbaugh. There wouldn't be anybody criticize us. There wouldn't be Fox News out there criticizing us. This is what they want. Fox they're telegraphing what they're going to do if they win.

[00:18:48]

They're setting up a one party, everything. Go out and buy individual liberty and freedom on everything. This is drastic.

[00:19:00]

Well, I urge my listeners to remain calm while the votes are being counted on election night. How insulting but how unsurprising it is. Look at look at what they're already preparing to run with out there. The election is two weeks away, two and a half weeks away. And they're already preparing stories. How if there's any unrest out there, it's going to be because of me. It's going to be because of shows like this.

[00:19:28]

It's going to be because of conservative media urging all of you mind numbed robots to go out and raise hell when in fact, who is raising hell? It's the left. It's the Black Lives Matter wing of the Democrat Party, the antifa wing of the Democrat Party, who is it that's burning down Democrat cities? Who is it that's looting Democrat owned and operated businesses? Who is it that is destroying the private property of citizens in their own cities and towns?

[00:20:02]

It's Democrats, it's Democrat mayors encouraging it. It's Democrat governors. You are not engaging in any of this. You're not on the protest march, you're not carrying Molotov cocktails, you're not throwing smokers' bombs at anybody. You're trying to stay out of their way, but this is the look at who is actually doing all this stuff and they the elites and the drive by media, they're sitting out already prepping stories on whatever social unrest there is.

[00:20:39]

Is because of you. Well, because of me.

[00:20:44]

And others like me encouraging lawless behavior by, you know, I'm not going to get to the Biden stuff and I've got to do this, it's it's 80 percent of the news today.

[00:21:02]

And I would be tempted to kind of let it go in and out, it's just forget about it. It's it's a it's one of the biggest challenges I've had to my commitment and promise to you to make the complex understandable. Those of you up to speed on it, you might say Rush is not hard at all once you start it is. But I think I think I've got a good stab at it here. But before we get to that. And I keep hearing.

[00:21:34]

People complain to me. And by the way, this is not a new complaint, I've had people complain to me about George W. Bush. Along the same route, what the complaint is, it's from suburban women or it's about suburban women and the argument takes many forms, but there's always a consistency to it.

[00:21:58]

And the argument used to be, were you going to get rid of abortion? I can we. Sorry for the stuttering. Just can't tell you the number of times ever after we have won an election or lost one. People who think that I have and I'm going this is covering 20 years now, people who think I have some say so over what Republican Party policy is that will come to me. When are you going to get them to stop abortion?

[00:22:27]

When are you going to get the Christians to shut up? When are you going to get the Christians to get kicked out of the party? They're killing us. Abortion is killing us. We're never going to win the women. You've got to get emotional about it. That's basically been. What I've had to put up with after every Republican defeat, particularly among elite wealthy Republican women and their husbands, because their husbands don't like being nagged about it. Said her husband has come up to me.

[00:22:56]

What are we going to do about you? You got to do something about this. You got to get them to stop talking about abortion. You got to get them to stop worrying about prayer in school stuff you got. And I've told them every time you can't win another election. If you do that, they are minimum 24 million votes. You don't have a chance of winning, Jack. If you get rid of them. But now the way it manifests itself is people come up to me complaining to me about Trump turning off suburban women.

[00:23:37]

Does that happen to you, Mr. Snootily? It happens to me usually driven by a news story. And the news story will be the drive bys reporting on whatever the event is, and then they will conclude that suburban women are the one most disturbed by the president's debate performance, or the suburban women are the one most disturbed by the president's tweets of suburban women are the ones most bothered by the president's orange hair or whatever it is.

[00:24:14]

Suburban women. Suburban, educated. White women. And I have a different take see see, I'm not a naturally defensive person, if somebody comes to me and they're echoing a drive by media report, then to me the answer is not what's wrong with Trump, what's wrong with these suburban women?

[00:24:43]

Why do you want to follow the mantra of the media for crying out loud? This is something else that bugs me to no end people in our own party who go by the media. And if the media destroys one of us, they sit by and let it happen. A claim there's nothing we can do. Rush, we have to nominate people the media are not going to kill. The only way to go for what we have to nominate people, meaning candidates, judges.

[00:25:09]

We have to have candidates that the mainstream media. Isn't it like Sarah Palin? And I have a different take on what what why should we be listening as those suburban women or gospel will rush, you better pay attention because they end up voting and they talked a lot people. I know, but. Why are they hands off? Why can't we go trying to talk to them and tell them maybe they're looking at this the wrong way? Maybe they're listening to the media on these things and maybe they're believing a bunch of things about Trump that aren't true.

[00:25:43]

Oh, that's too hard. I couldn't do that. Oh, so you just want to cave. So suburban women. This is what I'm told. Suburban women are their sensitivity is offended. By Trump's coarseness. Or his frankness. Or his tweeting. Or other aspects of his personality. But at the same time, you know what bothers me? They've got no problem with Joe Biden's rudeness. They've got no problem with Joe Biden hiding in the basement. They've got no problem with Joe Biden not telling a single person who or what he's for.

[00:26:39]

Now, all we hear about is what suburban women think of Trump now it tells me they may not even be Republican women. I think with the drive by, media are involved. My instinctive reaction is to not believe what I'm hearing from the sample of people they're talking to. Why is it that suburban women don't have any trouble with Marxism? Why is it suburban women don't have any trouble with the Democrats destroying their own cities and states? Why is it suburban women are totally cool with Black Lives Matter rolling into town and firebombing this business or that?

[00:27:22]

Looting this business or that. Running people off the road, creating general mayhem, why do suburban women not care about any of that? Why do suburban women why are they not offended? By the outright misbehavior of the Democrat Party and there noted allies. We're just supposed to sit here and assume that suburban women are perfectly fine with Marxism.

[00:27:52]

They're perfectly fine with Black Lives Matter as a communist organization, and they don't care about that. There's nothing to be concerned about their. But, man, when it comes to Trump's tweets, when it comes to Trump's debate, whatever. Oh, we can't have that. No, we can't. But we can certainly stand idly by and watch Portland be burned to the ground.

[00:28:19]

We can watch the same thing happen in Seattle. We can watch it happen in Minneapolis. We can watch shotgunned death after this gun death over and over and over again in Chicago of young black youth. And apparently suburban women don't care about any of that. They don't care who is responsible for it.

[00:28:40]

Now, all they care about is the. Reprobate nature of Donald Trump's behavior is character, I say, wait a minute. Time to call a halt to the proceedings. It doesn't make any sense. Suburban women of any other group, they're not infallible. Well, they are rooker's, you need them. That's why this matters, Rush, you Republicans are need those suburban women and you're losing them or we're losing them because of you were losing them because the lies that you're telling and the cover ups you're engaging in, you are not telling the people of this country what is being done to this country by agents of the Democrat Party.

[00:29:27]

You are not framing this election in the proper way. You're not telling people that this election is about whether the United States is founded, survives or not. You don't dare tell them that because you don't support the United States is founded. You support the overthrow, you support the revolution that is the Democrat Party. Black Lives Matter is the revolution wing of the Democrat Party. And you support it. So you don't even frame the election the right way, media?

[00:29:56]

No, you come along and you tell us suburban women have a big problem with Trump. That guy trying to save this country so that these women we're talking about will have liberty and freedom and a future that they have mistakenly assumed is just going to be there no matter who wins elections. We got people thinking this election is about Donald Trump tweeting. About Donald Trump's hair, Donald Trump's coarseness or whatever, they have been totally dissed, serviced and misled about what this election is really about.

[00:30:37]

I got to take a brief break. We'll come back after this.

[00:30:41]

Greetings and welcome back. Rush Limbaugh here behind the Golden EIB microphone meeting and surpassing all audience expectations every day with talent on loan from God.

[00:30:59]

And we're going to start in El Paso as we head to the phones. This is Victor. Great to have you, sir. Hi. Hi, Mr. Limbaugh, I'm 26 years old and I've been listening to you since I was about 15 years old, and I want to thank you for helping shape my beliefs and my and my love for America. And I think I speak for for most of the people across the country. And when we say we think God, every time we hear your voice.

[00:31:24]

Well, thank you. Thank you, Victor. I appreciate it. And I'm just as equally thankful that people like you were out there.

[00:31:32]

Yes. You had mentioned something about reaching out to your Democratic friends to try to flip them. And I decided to do that. The other day, I reached out to a college educated millennial suburban woman and I told her if she had, she had already went to vote. She was scheduled to vote today. And then I started saying, well, wait, before you vote, let me tell you this. She despises Trump. After about 40 minutes of talking her ear off, she stayed quiet.

[00:32:06]

I was ready for her to hang up on me. And she says, you know what? I've changed my mind. Wow.

[00:32:11]

Victor, wait, wait. Whoa ho ho ho. Hold on here a minute. So you engaged in the operation, turn a Democrat, turn a Democrat.

[00:32:20]

You did.

[00:32:21]

You had her on the phone. Why was it on the phone? Just just this curiosity here?

[00:32:26]

Well, because, I mean, I just called out to reach out to her. She's a good friend of mine.

[00:32:30]

OK, OK, so, you know, she's a good friend. She decided to try this on the phone rather than in person. Yes. And it took you 40 minutes. And she committed to you, she told you that she was going to vote for Trump after you finished trying to persuade her, right?

[00:32:49]

I mean, I told her I mean, Trump has President Trump has done so much. So it takes a while to talk about all of his accomplishments. When I told her speak about Joe Biden, in a way he had, she stayed quiet for ten seconds and she told me, I'm going to change my vote.

[00:33:04]

Well, do you believe her?

[00:33:08]

I do. I do. She's a she's been she's been a good friend of mine for years. And I take her at her word. Oh, you take her.

[00:33:16]

So why did she tell you that she was for Biden in the first place? I mean, what kind of what kind of arguments did you have to make to her? What kind of opposition in her did you have to overcome?

[00:33:31]

Well, I think like most Democrats, she doesn't know why she wanted to vote for Joe Biden. I think in the case why we were Hispanics on the Hispanic community. You see that? Did you go vote? You put your vote for the person with the letter D next to their name?

[00:33:45]

Yeah, that's it. The D next to the name. That's 90 percent of it.

[00:33:51]

And her hatred was toward Trump. And I said she she was telling me he's so divisive. I said, what's so divisive about wanting everybody in this country to prosper? About making America great and keeping America great and building up our military and putting Hispanics.

[00:34:06]

You actually said that to her. What is so divisive about wanting everybody to prosper? Exactly. Brilliant.

[00:34:13]

Brilliant. And I'm just I would love to have heard the conversation on some peppering you with questions, which I imagine you you you made her stop and think a bunch of times here with your questions. Yeah, no, and it's fine and, you know, I that's what I said in the beginning, I thank you for what you know, all the experience and everything you've taught us. And I think that one thing that the media is not talking about is the Hispanic vote.

[00:34:40]

I think that Trump is resonating a lot with Hispanics because we believe in the core values of this country. And I told her, you know what, you're a conservative and you don't even know it because you believe in life. You believe in liberty. We believe in happiness. You believe in religious freedoms, and that those principles run deep in the Hispanic community. And she said, I do believe in all those things. And I said, well, the Democratic Party is everything the opposite of that.

[00:35:04]

Victor, had anybody in your estimation ever spoken to her the way you were?

[00:35:11]

No, no, absolutely not. I don't think so.

[00:35:15]

It's not it it's important question, because most people I would assume most people have not spoken to her that she's going to vote for just accept it. That's the same thing about the way other people are going to vote.

[00:35:29]

But you actually cared enough about her vote and her.

[00:35:36]

To get her to think that you were serious about it, you were you were you cared about this for her, and that's what it sounds like to me anyway. And it sounds like that's how you were able to reach her. Well, you know what you need to do. You need to stay in touch, Victor, because her mind could go back, it could already be back. Plus, Biden, you've got to stay in touch with her, you've got this it never ends.

[00:36:00]

You've got to I'm not trying to pour a bunch of work on you, but every now and then stay in touch with her. Ask her if she's still feeling good about voting Trump if she says no, because Trump's going to do things that ticked people off here in the next 20 days. You got to stick with her and you've got to make sure she was able to keep these things in context and understand them and then report back to it, because this is a first known, successful Operation Turn, a Democrat, very proud of you out there.

[00:36:30]

Very proud of you.

[00:36:33]

Cronkite's going and going, what? Forty nine years, would you say?

[00:36:37]

Thirty nine and a half years water and hey, everybody is Jarno Cauldwell, you may know me as a national political analyst, but today I'm here to tell you about my new podcast series OutLoud with General Caldwell, the sworn enemy of PC culture. I'll interview national guests from all walks of life and real people discussing issues on culture and politics, as well as the controversies that have social media blazing.

[00:37:01]

Listen to OutLoud with General Caldwell every Monday on the I Heart radio app, Apple podcast or wherever you get your podcast.

[00:37:08]

Hi, everybody. Great to have you with us. It's great to have you back with us.

[00:37:13]

If you've been with us since the beginning, it's Rush Limbaugh when half my brain tied behind my back, as always, to make everything fair while you're here at the one and only EIB Network telephone number 800 to eight two two eight eight two.

[00:37:30]

So we've got we've got some competing television. I got Thursday Night Football tonight and we have two political town halls tonight. And NBC is facing a huge backlash. For booking Donald Trump in a town hall against Joe Biden on ABC. I'm here to tell you, the left is so mad at NBC for scheduling Trump against Biden. I don't think I've seen anybody on either side saying, you know, the thing about this conflict, they're worried about it.

[00:38:10]

For some, I don't know, but. This is this is potentially fascinating here, and there's a there's a companion story, Don Lemon Rips is a CNN reporter, Don Lemon Ribs NBC for rewarding Trump with town hall. So here's the here's the upshot here, calling it the story of the day, CNN anchor, our anchor Don Lemon told his colleague, Fredo Cuomo. That people were outraged about the dueling town halls. Don Lemon said, why on earth would NBC agree to do that?

[00:38:52]

You can do equal time on a different night, you can do equal time at a different time. You don't have to do it at the same time and divide the country further by having them choose. Lemon accused NBC of learning nothing from 2016 in allowing a man who made all the wrong decisions regarding the president's handling of the coronavirus and rewarding him with prime time. How does it help the American people? How does that help the electorate by putting these two people on at the same time and making people choose from one to the other?

[00:39:32]

They don't like competition, do they? They just don't like it. So according to Don Lemon. ABC should do their their town hall with plugs and NBC, if they want to do one with Trump, they actually shouldn't. But if they want to do one, that should not be at the same time that ABC is doing one. You know what they're afraid of. What do you think they're afraid of, Mr. Snod? They're afraid that NBC is going to be the most watched town hall tonight because that's where Trump is and at the ABC Town Hall is going to be trounced.

[00:40:11]

And that there it's going to look like Trump is so much more popular than Biden. Now, that'll be a fascinating. Juxtaposition. So you got two competing town halls here tonight, NBC, ABC Trumps NBC. And if Trump's NBC town hall draws far more audience than Biden's on ABC. And the Democrats are going to be scared, Democrats going, oh, no, they're they're polling is going to be challenged. They're they're they're baked in the cake.

[00:40:50]

Beliefs are going to be challenged. Insiders told the New York Post Page six. The last minute decision causing a great deal of internal consternation at NBC, people saw the backlash coming. The bosses went ahead with the scheduling anyway because they thought it would get the best ratings. NBC pushing back on claims a Trump town hall is an aggressive ratings ploy. NBC's in a ratings were the last. And a long list of concerns after public health and public responsibility to inform the viewers.

[00:41:30]

The events taking place on Thursday because that night is available for both candidates. NBC offered eight p.m. because it's the same time slot that was offered to Joe Biden last week.

[00:41:44]

Former NBC News VP slams network's decision to air Donald Trump town hall, I mean, Cheryl Gould is the former vice president of NBC News, has publicly criticized the network for agreeing to host Trump's town hall. Cheryl Gould said, I am dismayed, more like disgusted by NBC's decision. Is this is this with the new leadership? And NBC thinks it's the right thing to do to be complicit in Trump's tantrum. A shameless grab for ratings. I wouldn't be shocked if this were Fox News, but NBC, my former home, I've never been happier to say former.

[00:42:27]

You believe how upset these people are. This is just about. Ravings, this is just about their man at NBC for undermining ABC. No, no, no, no. It's far more than that, they really don't want the specter of a look at they're out there promoting Plug's is winning in a landslide. They're out there promoting Plug's is owning. It is up by double digits. Trump's chances of victory are in the single digits. Plug's in ninety one percent chance of winning.

[00:43:01]

And now they're going to do a town hall with them head to head. And Plug's is barely going to get any viewers. On top of that, most Americans blame Pelosi for failure to pass a stimulus bill to help people with covid-19 problems. Just like the attacks on Amy call me Barrett, the Democrat efforts to blame Trump. Forestalled covid relief bill is backfiring, a YouGov poll of registered voters found that 43 percent believe Pelosi is to blame for the failure to pass a coronavirus stimulus package.

[00:43:41]

Forty percent blame Trump. How about them apples, folks?

[00:43:46]

OK, now I want to I got to get started here on the. Hunter, Biden, Joe Biden situation that's been uncovered in the past two days by the New York Post, a story that's being ignored.

[00:44:02]

Outside of The New York Post and places like this show, but not only that, it's a story that is being suppressed. By Facebook and Twitter. Kayleigh McEnany. The official press secretary for the White House. Retweeted the New York Post story on yesterday about. Hunter, Biden and this laptop that's been found, which. Confirms a number of allegations of his being in bed with the Chinese earning Ill-Gotten funds. They have closed her account. They have closed another I think James Woods had his account shut down or deactivated, whatever the term is.

[00:44:58]

For simply passing the story on so Twitter and Facebook. Are suppressing the story, these are two American. Tech companies who have taken it upon themselves. To censor a legitimate news story. Because they do not want people to know it, they don't want people to see it. They don't want people to be able to read it or to learn about it, and so they are neither to the Chinese. So they are suppressing the story and they are punishing anybody.

[00:45:37]

Who happens to tweet it or put it on their Facebook page? Now I want to explain. I try to, because this is it's so massively intertwined. The details of this story. But the American people need to know. Because this is this is about serious political criminal corruption. Biden family corruption, it's about. Tech industry corruption involving Facebook and Twitter and the American people need to know about this. Before they vote. Now, there are a number of stories out there concerning the Biden family, you probably have seen them.

[00:46:28]

It's not the first time the Bidens have been in the news for shady deals. But what we're learning must impact the November elections. It must have an impact. This cannot be suppressed. This we cannot let the tech industry and others get away with suppressing or hiding or basically disappearing these stories. The past 36 hours of news and news suppression confirms. What most political observers have already known, that Joe Biden, like Hillary Clinton, sold his office. For millions of dollars, he's no different than Hillary Clinton.

[00:47:14]

It's just he doesn't have that image. Hillary does. He doesn't it's just old Joe. He's just an amusing old guy, is a walking gaffe machine, but old Joe neither either don't even know enough about what's going on to be corrupt.

[00:47:32]

Come on. That's just Joe. Hillary Clinton did. Much. The same thing. When she was secretary of state, when it was discovered that then Secretary of State Clinton had a secret email server the entire time she was secretary of state. Many people, including those in the Democrat Party in the Clinton campaign, thought literally that that would be the end of her bid to become the nominee. This was criminal activity she was engaging in. They thought it was over for her.

[00:48:09]

They they immediately embarked on a massive. Effort to cover it up, and that led to the Trump colluding with Russian story, Hillary Clinton hatched the campaign. With the Steele dossier to distract everybody's attention for her from her email story, because what she had done.

[00:48:31]

Was serious violations of United States statutory law. She was trading in U.S. government secrets in public on an unsecured server that was in her home in Chappaqua, Chappaqua, New York, and in other places, she was making no effort to secure them. When it was discovered that she had made this stuff widely available, she started Bletch bidding and hammering and destroying the servers and trying to. Get rid of 60000 emails. And this is when James Comey rode to her rescue on July 5th.

[00:49:10]

Of 2016 and proclaim that she had not done anything anybody would prosecute. Today, another massive scandal has been confirmed by emails. These are e-mails from the laptop of Hunter Biden. These are e-mails from the laptop of Joe Biden's son. Now, this scandal, it honestly is, folks, this scandal is. So big. And so dangerous like it was with Hillary that an enormous cover up is underway to save Biden's presidential bid. That's nothing less than an effort to save Biden's campaign is underway.

[00:49:59]

That's why the story is being suppressed. It's why people that trade in the story are being.

[00:50:07]

Well, there being the recounts are being closed, they're being boxed. The FBI. Had in their position. Or possession. The FBI had in their possession and controlled Hillary's emails. And because of that, the Obama deep state never allowed the details of Hillary's violations of the Espionage Act or her grotesque abuses of power to see the light of day. The FBI had in their possession. And they controlled Hillary's emails. It was a massive government run cover up led by the FBI, led by James Comey.

[00:51:04]

Maybe we'll get full details someday that can wait because Hillary's scandal is different. From Biden's. The FBI does not control the evidence of Biden's corruption, but. The FBI. Head Hunter Biden's laptop the entire time. When they were trying to impeach Trump, they had all this, the FBI had his laptop, his laptop had been turned over his laptop. It turned into a computer repair shop in Delaware. They knew what they had. They chose not to act on it.

[00:51:51]

So whereas you could say the FBI does not control the evidence of Biden's corruption, a computer shop owner made copies of Hunter Biden's abandoned laptop and gave them to the FBI and to the media.

[00:52:06]

Well, The New York Post. If the shop owner had given this this hard drive to The New York Times, we would never know about it. It would be suppressed. It would be buried. It'd probably be erased and destroyed.

[00:52:24]

Not the shop owner ended up giving it to The New York Post, and that is key. Stories in The New York Post have triggered a nongovernmental response from Biden's protectors. Social media giants Twitter and Facebook are trying to suppress the dissemination of evidence of Joe Biden's unfitness for office. In a manner this country has never seen it, and that is the story. The evidence contained in Biden's laptop of financial malfeasance, of government payoffs, of blackmail events makes what Hillary Clinton was trafficking in really small stuff.

[00:53:09]

Joe Biden is no different than Hillary Clinton in that he was selling access. To his family and to him for huge amounts of money and for the enrichment of his son, Hunter. I got to take a break as we approach the unwaivering break at the bottom of the hour here, sit tight. We'll continue here with more after this.

[00:53:37]

Let me let me interrupt this with a with a phone call. Pam in Hurricane, West Virginia. I'm glad that you waited. Welcome to the EIB Network.

[00:53:44]

Hello, Delaroche. I'm a first time caller. Well, great. Glad you're here. I was calling because I was thinking the same thing. You were at the FBI. The computer store owner says that the FBI first did a forensics on that laptop, which would have validated all the emails and messages on there. And then they returned weeks later with the grand jury subpoena. I saw that online this morning dated December 9th. And you're right, that means they have that computer and all that information during the impeachment.

[00:54:22]

Right, they had the Biden computer information during the campaign, during the impeachment of Trump, yes.

[00:54:29]

Which means that they had they had there was no reason to impeach Trump. Everybody knew there was no reason. Nothing happened in that phone call. In fact, that phone call was simply the result of Joe Biden admitting that he had gotten the prosecutor fired who was investigating his son. And Trump wanted the new president of Ukraine to confirm that he wanted to look into that. How did this all happen? Because Biden had been at the Council on Foreign Relations.

[00:54:59]

We've played you this audio. I don't know how many times bragging about how he got the prosecutor who was looking into his son's malfeasance fired. And he did it by threatening to withhold one billion dollars in aid. The U.S. government had promised Ukraine and he said to the Ukraine president, who was reluctant to do this, oh, you don't believe me? Call a big dog called Barack. Barack will tell you. You got six hours, you got six hours.

[00:55:35]

And then Biden tells his audience at the Council on Foreign Relations, a six hours go by some bitch. The guy got fired. They fired the son of a bitch and he's laughing about it and he's bragging about it, and the audience at the Council on Foreign Relations is applauding this. That's what Trump was asking the president of Ukraine to confirm. But Rush but Rush, Trump knew that Biden might be his opponent. Yeah, so what? If Biden ends up being his opponent, isn't that something people should know?

[00:56:16]

Trump wanted to make sure he knew about it. He doubted the media would make a big saw of it, and they still haven't. The media with Facebook and Twitter are still trying to hide it and punish anybody who traffics it, distributes it, retreats it, what have you. So everything about, you know, the impeachment was unnecessary and the FBI knew it. They had the the Biden laptop the whole time.

[00:56:52]

So what we're looking at here is the merging of the mindset of the Communist Chinese Party and that of a major American political party, b, the Democrat Party. And this merging also includes Twitter and Facebook and much of American social media. Now, that's the big picture. I want to go back and look at what's being suppressed. And try to tie it together. Remember several months ago when Biden said in response to a question from the media, I have never spoken to my son about his overseas business dealings.

[00:57:30]

Remember that?

[00:57:32]

What was so important to cause Biden to lie? That's I mean, it would be quite natural that he would talk to his son about overseas business dealings if the family had some. But he found it necessary to lie about that. Why, what was so important? Joe Biden lied about his knowledge of his son's corrupt dealings, the way Clinton lied about his carnal knowledge, shall we say, of Monica Lewinsky. It was a lie to protect himself from scrutiny that could do great damage to him and his political party, that's why he lied.

[00:58:16]

It's common knowledge, folks, this is not arguable now it's not in dispute, Hunter Biden got eighty thousand dollars a month to sit on the board of Charisma. A corrupt well, the guy that ran a Ukrainian oligarch, it's an energy company in Ukraine. And that happened when Obama put Joe Biden in charge of Ukraine, so. Biden gets the Ukraine portfolio, the Ukraine desk immediately installs his son on the board of an energy company there for 80 grand a month, and his son doesn't know anything about natural gas or any other aspect of energy.

[00:58:58]

And we know that Joe Biden bragged about blackmailing a Ukraine official. That resulted in protecting Biden and his family from any scrutiny. This is where Biden brags about getting the prosecutor looking into Karisma. And thus his son fired. Biden lied because some might conclude that he and his son are very black, malleable. He lied because some people might conclude that he was using his power. As vice president, to arrange very cozy and secure financial arrangements you and I can't engage in that are in violation of big time law.

[00:59:41]

Joe Biden lied because. Well, couldn't have this be discovered, it would embarrass him to embarrass Obama. It would it would cause embarrassment out the why they might even demand Biden's tax returns, folks, if they got wind of any of this.

[01:00:02]

Some might ask, where did this money come from? Joe Biden's kid is being paid eighty thousand dollars a month by an energy company in Ukraine, we can't find any knowledge he has. Of energy, so. Where does money come from and why were the Bidens paid that money? Well, what were they getting for it or what were they doing for it?

[01:00:28]

So we're three weeks away from the most important election of our lives. The stakes are huge. Joe Biden has a town hall tonight. Do you think this is going to come up? If so, how much time is going to be devoted to it? I'll bet you it doesn't come up. He's going to be on ABC. It isn't going to come up because as far as ABC's concerned, the story is not out there. It's been suppressed by Twitter.

[01:00:54]

And Facebook, the only place it's run is The New York Post. They're doing their best to pretend that story does not exist. Remember that what Twitter and Facebook are doing to suppress this? No different from the fake news media. They just have. The difference is that. Unlike the fake news media, Twitter and Facebook have the ability to censor you, they have the power to punish you. Hunter Biden sold access. To the office of the vice president, the vice president, his dad was a knowing and willing participant, this has been confirmed by everything on this laptop.

[01:01:44]

We've known it to be true, it's something every voter should know, but more important, every voter should be fully aware of the effort underway. Take away your basic freedoms. We all saw what the Senate Democrats did to Kavanaugh. We see what they think of the brilliant Amy CONI Barrett. We know what Obama, Hillary and Biden did to Donald Trump. They set him up for treason. Both the fake news media and social media support as folks look around, you are targets of lockdown's censorship, cover ups and lies all perpetrated by the Democrat Party.

[01:02:25]

And it's Black Lives Matter revolutionary wing, it's unprecedented what is happening. The tactics that we face are the tactics of totalitarians. Joe Biden says that voters don't deserve to know about his plans to pack the Supreme Court. Now, don't tell me Joe Biden's court packing won't result in the end of free speech, because that's what Democrats are. That's exactly where this is headed. Now we have evidence of his breathtaking corruption. Now, some of you might say Rush, so what, Biden's like a mall and no big deal corrupt.

[01:03:05]

Right, no. Facebook and Twitter give away the game, folks. Facebook and Twitter give away the game. Their hysterical reaction tells us everything we need to know about the veracity and the seriousness of the Hunter Biden story, it's got to be suppressed. It's got to be made invisible. It's got to disappear. It's a big deal. We'll see. If conservative media can overcome the efforts of fake news media and social media to suppress. Game changing information on a man running for the most powerful office in the world.

[01:03:58]

Make no mistake, countered Biden's emails, create a dangerous situation for Joe Biden. As hard as it is, I'm going to make every effort to make sure the word gets out, the American people have to know who they're voting for. They have to know what the stakes are because they've never been bigger. Constitution is on the line. Biden is all but promised court packing. President Trump will make sure the word gets out and rallies and possibly through his Twitter account.

[01:04:33]

This election isn't over, I don't care what you think about it, I don't care what your impressions are. I've told you countless times the events shaping this election are still happening. The events that will determine the outcome of this election are still happening. Joe Biden is a corrupt liar. Joe Biden's son is now the star witness in a case against him. They're going to try to bury the story, they are trying to bury the story. They should not get away with it.

[01:05:08]

Try this. American greatness, members of the Biden family were expected to give half of their earnings to pop. Hunter Biden text reveals. Forget all this other stuff, if that's too convoluted, try this. Forget all the other garbage about Hunter and Joe. What is Joe Biden? According to this story, he is the equivalent. Of the head of a little mob family, he gets half of all the money the family makes in their dirty deals.

[01:05:51]

Giuliani held up a text from Hunter Biden to Joe Biden's granddaughter, Naomi Biden, discussing money, claimed that Hunter made a big mistake because it revealed the distribution scheme the Biden crime families had for years. Hunter Biden wrote, I love you all, but I don't receive any respect, that's fine, I guess works for you apparently. I hope you all can do what I did and pay for everything for this entire family for 30 years. It's really hard, but don't worry.

[01:06:20]

Unlike Pop, I won't make you give me half your salary. Giuliani explained that the younger Biden was paying for everything in the family because he was getting the money. They were keeping it from George so he wouldn't have to report it. They were keeping it from Joe so that he would stay clean. You ever wonder why I've been in Washington forty seven years, doesn't have any more money now than he did when he showed up when everybody else in that town is a multimillionaire.

[01:06:51]

Ever wonder why Joe Biden still lives in that cheap little a frame house of his that he's lived in all these years? It's like Vincent the Chin Gigante. Creates a public image of average ordinary income. No scandal with me, Joe Biden, the money never got to him directly.

[01:07:14]

It's one of the reasons why the Biden kids were put into these positions. They were the recipients. Of all the money Joe Biden was arranging for himself when he was a senator, when he was vice president for Obama. It was so he wouldn't have to report it. His tax returns would be clean. His family members were the ones being paid off. They had to send half the money to dad. The route the money take their took was was such that it would not be categorized as income, thus wouldn't need to be reported.

[01:07:58]

I'm telling you, folks, the Biden family is as scandalous as the Corleone bunch. They're just not looked at this way because Biden doesn't look like a guy with half the brains to set something like this up, he comes across as your average ordinary, avuncular little granddad, kind of not. Now he's now he's got dementia. Don't even know what he's doing, wandering the neighborhood with a bathrobe on like Vincent Chin. But I'm telling you. Hunter Biden's taxi was livid.

[01:08:35]

He was getting all the money he had to pay all the family off. And half of all the money that came in. They made sure I went to Pop. So Hunter Biden goes to China with his dad, his dad arranges a job at a Chinese government. He gets paid three billion. There are three million here, whatever.

[01:08:57]

Then over to Ukraine. Eighty thousand dollars a month. This is how the Bidens did it. This is what all of these stories lead to, it's what all these stories add up to. It's why the Chinese and tech media, Facebook and Twitter are doing their best to suppress these stories. I have to take a brief time out, we'll do that, be back and continue right after this. I want to read one more thing that welcome back to the phones.

[01:09:27]

This is this is from the American Greatness website.

[01:09:31]

And it is from today, according to a smoking gun text on the Hunter Biden, hard drive on this computer found in Delaware, members of the Biden family.

[01:09:46]

We're expected to give half of their profits to pop, a.k.a. Joe Biden, several members of the Biden family, including his brother, James Biden, his sister in law, Sarah, and his son Hunter, landed lucrative positions or contracts with foreign countries while Biden was a U.S. senator, as well as when he served vice president to Fox. This goes back much farther than when he was just. Obama's vice president. He had his family installed in these positions with various governments and businesses and the entities for decades in Washington.

[01:10:32]

Forty seven years they got the money. His family members were the recipients of the payoffs or the deals they had to give pop half of it. In giving pop half of it, it came in not as income didn't have to be reported, Pop was not in the pipeline with the companies. Pop was not in the pipeline with the government's.

[01:11:01]

His kids were his brother and sister in law, were they were the ones legally exposed. Imagine that. Plug's put them in the line of fire, they're the ones that got paid off, they're the ones that were. It's how it's how these entities paid Biden off for his influence and help. Put his family on the board of directors or high up in these companies. It is it again, for how long was this going on before we knew about this stuff in Ukraine and China, it's been going on for much of his Senate career.

[01:11:46]

Here's Maria in Winfield, West Virginia, great to have you on the EIB Network. Hi.

[01:11:52]

Hi. It's an honor to talk to you. Thank you. I am a white, educated, suburban woman and I support the president 100 percent. And while I do know other women like me, I think that the issue is just that many of these other women who say they don't like his tweets or how his rhetoric and how he says things that they're looking for someone that's just going to make them feel better. They're much more self-centered and looking at their life alone.

[01:12:25]

And they don't like the way Trump says things. Instead, they need to be looking at what Trump is actually doing. The old saying of actions speak louder than words. Trump is he? He absolutely is a person where you can look and see what he has done more than what he says.

[01:12:47]

So right on the money, what he's done is not hidden. You don't need it translated for you.

[01:12:55]

No, not at all. Not at all. And I you know, I was not a supporter of Trump to start with. I didn't I thought he was kind of pompous and I didn't particularly care for him. But as the debates were going on in the primary, my husband and I kept saying, oh, my gosh, we agree with Trump more than anyone now that he's been in office for so long, you know, for the past three and a half years, the things that he has done, it's just been incredible.

[01:13:21]

He has just I mean, we are in a much better position now as a family than we were before he was elected. Our taxes have gone down and we are considered upper middle class. So, you know, Joe Biden saying that, you know, that we are taxes. We're not going our taxes will go up under him. Yes, they will, because it's got a tax cut.

[01:13:43]

They're going to go up. I mean, the tremendous a tremendous amount you need to tell these these other women that you run into if you do that. There are a lot of people that are voting for Trump that in normal times wouldn't. But they're not normal times, Maria, which, you know, they're not normal times, Trump may be the only guy who can save this country from the onslaught from within that we face.

[01:14:14]

New York Post has an email that shows that within days of hiring Hunter Biden Ba'athism, I asked him to use his influence to stop the Ukraine government's investigation of Ourisman. It's right there in right. My friends, fastest three hours and me, there's only one left today. We'll get right to it.

[01:14:36]

Yeah, you know what I want to do and show me. Sound number 21 first, I got a lot of sound bites coming up here, and I just told the broadcast engineer what in what order and now I'm changing it, but we will get it.

[01:14:51]

Trump's doing a rally right now. You know, he is doing a rally right now because he's going unconscious tonight. That's what he calls Comcast, they own NBC, he's got a rally on the NBC tonight. At the same time, Biden has a rally on ABC and they are livid. Well, the drive by media is so mad at NBC for doing this. Oh, they are fit to be tied. Carl Bernstein can't see straight over. He's so mad.

[01:15:23]

All of them are ticked off out there because they know that Trump ratings wise is just going to skunk plugs and they are afraid that that's going to lead people to believe that Trump is so much more popular than Biden and it could affect the way people vote and all that.

[01:15:46]

So we'll get to this in a minute. There's something I want to share with you today from the hearings. Amy Connie Barrett hearings. This was the day the Democrats got to whine and moan about how unfair things are when everything happening is the epitome of fairness. And they got to bring in their witnesses. To alternately praise and savage Jamie Connie Barrett, so Dick Durbin, who is, I guess, third in command, in power on the Democrat side.

[01:16:22]

Had this to say about the concept of originalism, she's Amy CONI Barrett is said to be an originalist. In the interpretation of the Constitution, Scalia was an originalist. This is a Clarence Thomas, these are. Considered to be find things, to be an originalist as a Rick, as you examine the original document. What did it mean? Well, that's what's important. So determined today.

[01:16:50]

Wanted to take issue with it. Termine wanted to try to demonstrate how originalism is just a waste of time. And so he was quoted that noted constitutional expert Chicago Mayor Laurie Lightweight and this one he said, let me read to you what the mayor of Chicago, Lori Lightfoot, who's a friend, said a couple of days ago in a news conference, asked her if she was an originalist.

[01:17:21]

Here's what she said. You ask a gay black woman if she's an originalist. No, ma'am, I'm not. That Constitution didn't consider me a person in any way, shape or form because I'm a woman, because I'm black and because I'm gay. I'm not an originalist now.

[01:17:40]

On a surface level. I understand that. Surface is how shallow this is. MWS lightweight is essentially saying that this country. Is not anything special because it wouldn't even acknowledge my existence, this country had nothing to say about me. It didn't want to protect me, it didn't want to give me any rights. It didn't want to do anything because I didn't fit the mold. I wasn't a rich white man. I know a lot of people I've heard this from a lot of African-Americans my whole life, and I remember the first time I heard it, it moved me.

[01:18:27]

I said, I totally understand this, this time went on. Like everything else I believe in, I began to create rejoinders ways to come back at this. Because whereas Laurie, lightweight. Doesn't think the Constitution was anything for her. What is she now? The mayor of Chicago. But how did it happen? How did how did a woman who thinks that the Constitution didn't even consider her a person? In any way. How she ended up being the mayor of Chicago.

[01:19:18]

And the answer is the very document that she thinks. Left her out of everything. Was the document that permitted? Maybe the wrong word that. Contained within its. Writings, the ability to change, to amend it, to evolve. And by the consent of the governed, by the consent of the people. She is now considered a full fledged person. Because the Constitution was malleable, it was. Adaptable. I think it is a testament to the brilliance of the Constitution.

[01:20:12]

The Constitution was. Really etched in stone is like these people want you to believe it, because it was so bad that we got to get rid of it. Then what's happened to Lori Lightfoot should never have happened. She should still be. Persona non grata, she should still be invisible, she should still be somebody that is. Unnoticed. But she's the mayor of Chicago. A lot of people. And to engage in a lot of fights for that to happen, but it still did.

[01:20:54]

But Russia is not objecting Constitution, objecting to the notion of originalism. Yeah, it was originalism. It was originalists. Who structured the document in such a way that it remained intact? While accommodating these changes that it remained. It retained its form, it retained its purpose. The people that wrote the Constitution, the same people wrote the declaration in a sense, and they knew that the founding of the country had to go through this over and over and over again, but.

[01:21:30]

It was necessary to form a union in order to rebel against. Great Britain. And the union forming was key, and back in those days, there was slavery in some of the 13 colonies. Deals had to be made. If you go back and read some of the things written and debated. There was not massive support at the founding days of this country for slavery. In fact, most of the. Heretofore, white founding fathers were repulsed by it.

[01:22:10]

And knew it couldn't survive, knew the country wouldn't survive with that. Aspect of it point is. That an originalist document was not rigid at all. It was not. Incapable of change. No reason to hate. The Constitution, it's not reason to hate originalism. She's now the mayor of Chicago. She may think that. That all happened despite the Constitution. Constitution that have a role in it disagreed. But even so, she's a smart woman.

[01:22:57]

The fact that you can't see that anybody can't see. The genuine brilliance that is the United States Constitution troubles me anyway, because take away your personal stake and things, take away the idea that you think government's there for you.

[01:23:17]

Take away the fact that the purpose of government is to give you this and give you that, make sure this happens to you if you if you take that away from everything. And have a healthy understanding. Of the political formations. That comprise the United States, it is one of the most timeless, brilliant. Documents ever conceived by humanity. Inability to see that because of personal grievance, I just it's a shame I wish it weren't the case. I wish people like Lori Lightfoot had the ability to see it a different way rather than carry around 200 years worth of grudges that.

[01:24:02]

Not productive. Anyway, in this case, it was simply used to oppose Amy CONI Barrett, so that's probably the extent of it. Here's Carl Bernstein. This audio sound bite number 22 this afternoon, CNN's NEWSROOM. He's talking to the info, babe. Brianna Keilar. Who said NBC says that if they move the event to a different time, I the Trump rally, they move it to a different time slot, they'd be violating their agreement to give both candidates the same platform.

[01:24:35]

And I know you see it differently. So explain to us how you see this nonsense.

[01:24:40]

What NBC has done here is indefensible, what they have chosen to do and which is to be conned by Donald Trump. And that is what has really raised the most serious journalistic questions and the reason that so many people who work at NBC and MSNBC are so upset by what NBC has done here, capitulating to Donald Trump's demands that will allow him to cut into Joe Biden's audience, essentially because MSNBC, CNBC, these cable channels, ABC, which is broadcasting Biden, has no similar cable channels.

[01:25:20]

So obviously Trump will get the larger audience.

[01:25:23]

Hey, Carl. Trump's got the larger audience if he's on a pair of tin cans and a piece of string. Now you can sit there and moan and whine all you want. But don't you love the fact that these people think NBC capitulated? To Trump Boya, NBC capitulated to Trump. Does anybody know the time, the actual time of these things with somebody? Find out what the times of these. I don't have any I don't even have any idea.

[01:25:59]

I also need to correct myself. There is no Thursday Night Football tonight. And I guess this is because of the covid-19 circumstance. It was to be the the the the Buffalo Bills and the Kansas City Chiefs. But the Buffalo Bills play on Tuesday. And they got creamed who they lost in the Tennessee Titans. So the the chiefs and the Buffalo Bills will play on Monday night at five o'clock.

[01:26:30]

Eight eight p.m. Eastern for both of these. I thought there was a one half hour overlap, is one of them an hour long and one of an hour and a half. They both the same time frame. Do we know? Now, when you when you when you find that, when you find out, let me know. Here we go with ABC soundbytes 23 and 24. These are from back in 2000 19. We've aired these. The purpose here, ABC knows the Hunter Biden story.

[01:27:12]

The story I spent an hour breaking down for you today. Concluding with the fact that Biden over the years has put his family in positions of influence, corruption with various foreign countries and foreign businesses using his power as a senator and as vice president. And it was his family who received the payments and the family were required to send pop half of every payment they got. That kept pop, i.e., Joe Biden out of the loop. They were getting the money, not him.

[01:27:55]

So any money that showed up in Pop's account, why look at this devoted family, why these family members are saying thank you to pop.

[01:28:05]

But he was out of the lineup as brilliantly conceived corruption setup point is ABC News has known about this since 2000 19. Good Morning America. Tom Yamas reporting about Hunter Biden's business dealings in Ukraine and China, was Hunter Biden profiting off his dad's work as vice president? And did Joe Biden allow it? We're talking about millions of dollars in at least two countries. Mr. Vice President Tom Yamas with ABC News. How are you doing? Got a quick question for you.

[01:28:41]

It's a question we tried to ask repeatedly. Can we ask you about Ukraine and China, but kept getting blocked? One person who did not want to talk about it, Joe Biden. Mr. Vice President, what's your take on that? Was there a conflict of interest there? Was there a clear conflict of interest? Wow. All right, so that's Tom Thomas asking Biden, Hey, Tommy, buddy, old buddy, how are you doing? Biden says, Got a quick question for you, old buddy.

[01:29:08]

Old pal. Tried to ask you repeatedly, can we ask you about Ukraine? And China kept getting blocked. One person didn't want to talk about it.

[01:29:15]

Joe Biden, they knew about it. ABC cannot ignore this. Here's the next byte.

[01:29:23]

Tomiyama We went to Kiev and found even among Joe Biden supporters in Ukraine, hunters hiring was troubling.

[01:29:30]

How do you judge what Hunter Biden was doing? I think that Hunter Biden did a very bad thing and he was very well. He allowed his name to be abused.

[01:29:41]

And Ukraine wasn't the only country where Hunter Biden's business and his father's diplomacy as vice president intersected. It also happened in China. This video shows Chinese diplomats greeting Vice President Biden as he arrived in Beijing in December of 2013 right by his side, his son, Hunter. Less than two weeks later, Hunters Firm had new business creating an investment fund in China involving the government controlled Bank of China, with reports they hope to raise one point five billion dollars a year.

[01:30:10]

The five one and a half billion dollars plug's makes it possible for his son to get in on this deal.

[01:30:18]

What a great dad, what a great dad and a wonderful.

[01:30:23]

And then Hunter's job is to send half of whatever goes through his office to pop.

[01:30:31]

What a scheme Fox keeps Biden clean and clean, it exposes his family. It exposes his family, it makes them go out, be on the front lines, they're the ones accepting questionable payments.

[01:30:49]

But old plugs, he just sits around and waits for half of it. To be diverted to him by his son, Hunter, the town halls are both at 8:00 p.m. tonight, my friends will take a brief time out.

[01:31:05]

We will continue in just a moment. Don't go away.

[01:31:10]

Ladies and gentlemen, TV crime shows give you a clear depiction of robberies, breaking and entering crimes, all kinds of crimes that are physically committed. But rarely do we see online crimes or crimes committed by cyber criminals because those are silent crimes.

[01:31:30]

They must be harder to portray and still hold the interest of a TV viewer. But those kinds of crimes exist every day. We just don't hear about them as much. And they're certainly not portrayed in TV shows or movies, at least not often. Sometimes they are. Thing is, cyber thieves will park themselves online, say, on public Wi-Fi, where you happen to be if you're there and they'll look for unprotected devices.

[01:31:58]

They use malware to gain access to your phone and your laptop. Actually plant the stuff on your device.

[01:32:03]

You have no idea if they can see you. They can do this. They use phishing emails, deceptive e-mails to get you to click on something you shouldn't click on, but they make it sexy or urgent, emergency related, they suck you in.

[01:32:22]

[01:34:04]

Kamala Harris has suspended all travel after a staffer has tested positive for covid-19. That's not why.

[01:34:14]

Welcome back, folks. Rush Limbaugh, the EIB Network. Julia Louis-Dreyfus. Has called for a boycott of the network that helped make her famous and wealthy, Julia Louis-Dreyfus took to Twitter this afternoon calling for her millions of followers to boycott NBC. Because they're doing the Trump Town Hall at the same time ABC is doing Biden's.

[01:34:44]

Now, here's the thing. The Trump town hall is 60 Minutes. The Biden town hall on the ABC is 90 minutes. And one of the things is going to see, as will Biden make it through his 90 minutes, you know, it's going to be fast.

[01:35:04]

Is this going to hold up?

[01:35:05]

There's so much excrement being thrown at NBC.

[01:35:12]

Right now that I. I know the media, I know how these people there think, I know they don't like criticism, they don't like this. They don't like the insinuations, they certainly they certainly don't like the allegation they're on Trump's side.

[01:35:30]

Oh, oh, humiliation. You're accusing us of trying to help Trump your feeling that something's got to give here. We'll patiently wait and see in the meantime, here's Gretchen in Easton, Maryland. Welcome. It's great to have you here.

[01:35:46]

It is great to be on with you. I want you to know two things. I pray for you and I hope that everything is going to turn out OK for you. Thank you very, very much. I appreciate that. You're very welcome. And my friends who are also white, suburban women, most of them, you know, we are all part of the silent majority and we are going to be heard. And while I doubt sometimes, you know, I get this terrified feeling because of where this could go and but then in my gut, I I think it's coming.

[01:36:22]

I think is going to happen. You think what elected you think what's going to happen that time will get re-elected?

[01:36:33]

Oh, you've had some doubts about that, you mean? No doubt.

[01:36:36]

But just like, oh, my God, you know, it'd be OK to have doubts of me be perfectly natural.

[01:36:42]

Yeah, I mean, I do. And but then I know that it's like we don't have signs in our yards. We swedo because we don't want to put up with a bunch of crap. I know about it, but I have a flag in my backyard that I love. So I don't you know, I don't women don't need to like him. Women don't need to want to have him over for dinner. You know, what has he done?

[01:37:10]

He's done what he said he was going to do. He is doing so many good things that when I look at people, he just flat out, well, let me tell you something.

[01:37:20]

I just Gretchen, this stuff is the stuff is real and it's not exclusive to Trump. I have faced it my entire career.

[01:37:32]

I have I have been told that this is probably about 10 years ago that young college aged women just. Just hated it, the more confident I sounded. They hated it. Nobody supposed to be that sure of themselves and nobody is. It's a sign of a closed minded blowhard, is what I was told by. A mother who had a 20 year old daughter who despise me. And I said, why would. You're so sure yourself, you're so confident and you'll laugh at other people.

[01:38:16]

Well, OK, I have to be who I am if I if I start I've said this forever, if I start trying to change who I am based on every bit of criticism, I'm going to stop being whoever I am.

[01:38:31]

But my point is that I have been told myself. That a certain type of woman does not like me at all. If it's if it's if it's not that I'm too sure myself and too confident, I it's that I'm too loud.

[01:38:55]

That women do not like that age, woman does not like the it's not the yelling or screaming, it's it's the it's the it's the certitude.

[01:39:09]

That accompanies. Confident. So when I hear that suburban and suburban women. A particularly college educated white women don't like Trump because of his mannerisms. It doesn't surprise me. I've heard it. I've been there, done that. And what I've learned is there's no changing it. There's nothing Trump could do. I don't think that's going to change their minds because what they're what they're thinking is not. It's got to be very careful. I don't think it's rational to begin with, but it is.

[01:39:45]

Real in the sense that's what they think and feel and that's how they're reacting, and that's why it's what they say is the reason for their reacting. So in that sense, you do have to. Gretchen, thanks very much.

[01:39:56]

By the way, if you noticed that the Biden campaign is not denying anything in The New York Post stories. They're not denying a thing. In fact, what they're doing, the Biden team, the Democrats are praising Twitter and Facebook for suppressing and banning the stories because they're not true. They're not true. And this is the only responsible thing to do. But, you know, that's not how media works. You know, maybe it doesn't pick sides, except we know that it does media doesn't ban stories it thinks are not.

[01:40:40]

God bless us, for four years, we had to put up with abject drivel made up cock and bull from NBC, ABC, CBS and The New York Times about Trump colluding with Russia.

[01:40:57]

Literally made up B. S as often as four times a day. There has yet to be an apology to their readers. There has yet to be a request from the Pulitzer organization for the prizes back. Anyway, you know the drill in that it's just. The media does not do what they're doing with the Biden story. They don't look at a story that's not true. We're not publishing. That's not true, that's no, we're not. That's what they do when they're trying to protect and save somebody.

[01:41:33]

Here's Dave Dave in Orlando, Florida. Welcome. Great to have you, sir. Hi.

[01:41:37]

Hi. First to you, sir. Thank you. I was calling about the concern that you brought up on the phone the other day about Mazie Hirono questioning on the sexual assault and harassment that she had brought up during the hearing. And I know I saw that a number of the networks as well. I was just calling to let you know that I've watched a number of the appellate judge hearings that they have on the Web. And she asked that question of everybody.

[01:42:02]

So it's nothing special that came out for Amy. It kind of. Oh, she does. Yes. Yes, she does. Yes. Out of everybody that I don't know if it's a method of getting them on the record or not, but she does ask that of everybody.

[01:42:15]

So it doesn't necessarily mean that she is ready to spring some sort of Kavanagh's surprise, you know, and like I said, she's she's asked it.

[01:42:25]

And every hearing I've watched on the appellate and I probably watched 15, 20 of the hearings.

[01:42:30]

I got you. OK, well, that is, I guess is some somewhat of a relief.

[01:42:37]

I did not know that. What we're talking about here, Mazie Hirono, the senator from Hawaii who's famous for telling male senators on the Judiciary Committee to shut up. I asked Amy CONI Barrett, since you became an adult. Has anybody ever accused you of making unwanted sexual advances or advances on them or have you done it?

[01:43:02]

Something I'm paraphrasing, something along the lines that since you became an adult, have you have you ever demanded sexual favors or performed by people that we're not comfortable with them and didn't want them as a senator and no senator.

[01:43:20]

And just on the surface, this sounds like a gigantic setup. All she would have to have is some disgruntled student of Amy CONI Barret's. Waiting in the wings to be trotted out like Christine Baldie Ford was. For Kavanaugh's, so your your comment is somewhat a relief, I appreciate it, Dave, very much.

[01:43:45]

Hey, folks, give Hillsdale College a little credit this week. They have long recognized the importance of everyone.

[01:43:53]

Understanding the meaning and values found in our Constitution, news events. Underscore that notion, Hillsdale College created an online video series called Constitution 101 several years ago and made it available free of charge for everybody to see. And you know, who could really benefit from it? Be Laurie Lightweight, the mayor of Chicago. She really could.

[01:44:19]

It's video on demand presented as a series of 10 college lectures, and it is unlike any online college level course, the video production levels are high. The passion of the professors teaching the course make it captivating. Each episode's about 40 to 45 minutes. There are no test to take. And most importantly, you finish watching this course and you were all that much more informed on one of the most important documents in world history, certainly in our nation's history.

[01:44:57]

But I think in world history, if not the most important document and I'm serious at Lawrence-Lightfoot could learn a lot from this document that I'm not saying this insultingly.

[01:45:10]

It could it could have her look at the Constitution in a totally different perspective, which would be helpful. Hillsdale still makes this course available to watch online, they've added some three dozen additional online video series since then. The latest is a portrayal of our nation's history called The Great American Story A Story of Hope. It's a captivating look at our nation's history and highlights the challenges and how we have grown from them.

[01:45:42]

And you can see each and every Hillsdale College video series creation free of charge, and there are no strings attached. They are all found at the website Rush for Hillsdale Dotcom. No strings. It is not a hidden little trick to get you to donate. Nothing like they just love teaching. They love spreading the word. They love succeeding in advancing knowledge of things they are passionate about.

[01:46:13]

Rush for Hillsdale Dotcom.

[01:46:17]

Back to the phones we go and we got we got Sue in Tampa. I'm glad you waited. Welcome to the EIB Network.

[01:46:26]

Hey, Rush, thank you so much for still being our word. And we just want to say, my husband and I are longtime listeners of yours and we're strong supporters of our president. And I just wanted to give you the shout out and ask you tonight, if the numbers don't show, you know, overwhelmingly everybody's tuned in to NBC to listen to our president. I think that we know what our president is going to do for us. And what I think a lot of us might do is turning to the other station just so that Biden nails his coffin shut.

[01:47:00]

We're waiting for the you know, for the finally for the public to get to see that's you.

[01:47:05]

What, you want people to watch Biden?

[01:47:09]

Well, what I think is people will watch Biden to watch him finally screw up nationally. OK, that's what I think. You don't want people to watch Trump because you think they know Trump's going to do well. You want him to watch Biden to watch him screw up.

[01:47:25]

I think that's what's going to happen. I think I think they're going to have George. George Stephanopoulos is going to be protecting this guy like you haven't seen anybody protected.

[01:47:37]

You know, he can only be protected so long. You know, at some point he's going to stumble and we need to be able to witness this as a country. And I think a lot of people are tuning in to hope that this is finally he's finally revealed. And I just feel strongly that if the numbers don't show a lot of people watching Trump tonight, it's not because we don't support him. We we know what he's representing. He tells us and he's told us.

[01:48:07]

And I think that you're going to find people that may tune in to at least part of it to hopefully this will this will come to an end tonight. Well, we'll see Biden's Biden's event, I'm getting competing information, I'm getting his event is 90 minutes. I just was told that no, it's two hours. Trumps is one hour. So you can actually do both. You can watch Trump's first hour, then turn over to ABC for the last either half hour or a full hour of Biden, because probably more likely the screw up.

[01:48:42]

Well, I just think that if the numbers don't go the way, you know, I don't think the numbers are necessarily going to reveal, you know, that this is if Trump doesn't get this high viewership, it's not because he's not well supported. We know where he is. You know, he he has made a point of telling.

[01:49:02]

Wait a minute. I finally figured out what you're afraid of. I know what you want people to watch Biden because you're afraid they're going to anyway. You're afraid that Trump's numbers are not going to be what they would normally be. And you don't want anybody saying it's because Trump is losing interest with people. That's right. I don't think Trump is losing interest of people at all. I think he's done a good job of telling us already what he believes and what he represents.

[01:49:32]

I just think that people are looking for Biden to mess up people. I mean, that's what I'm trying to say. We know what Trump represents.

[01:49:40]

Know what I'm saying is you are afraid people aren't going to watch Trump and when the Trump numbers are no good, that they're going to say, look at this. Trump's popularity is fading. Biden.

[01:49:54]

I'm afraid that's what I'm afraid of, that they're going to misread the numbers. And so as a preemptive measure, you want people to go out and watch Biden anyway so they can say, no, we never were going to watch Trump, we wanted to watch Biden implode. That's exactly right. All right. OK, OK, I just I just wanted to make sure that I well, let me just tell you something. There is no way. I don't have time to say what I wanted to say, so I'm just going to stop.

[01:50:27]

Trump has a rally going North Carolina, he's still going I think he's over 90 minutes now. And he's got another one tonight is doubling up, two of them today here, got rallies all week. Yeah, the town hall tonight on Comcast opposite plug's at 8:00 and we'll see you here tomorrow to make sense of it all.

[01:50:53]

Hey, everybody. Is Giono Cauldwell? You may know me as a national political analyst, but today I'm here to tell you about my new podcast series OutLoud with General Caldwell, the sworn enemy of PC culture.
