This is&#8230; I don\u2019t need to prepare you for it. I don\u2019t need to lead into this. It\u2019s Nancy Pelosi on Capitol Hill during her weekly press briefing today. And a reporter said, &#8220;There are reports now, Congresswoman Pelosi, that the train in Hoboken did not have positive train control. And I know that Congress last year voted to extend the deadline for implementation of that technology. What do you think about that, and is that something that you believe should be revisited in any way?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Do you have any idea what\u2019s coming here folks? Here we go, folks&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>PELOSI: I don\u2019t think we should have extended the deadline, when the trains were still running. If you\u2019re gonna extend the deadline then stop the trains because the risk is there. It\u2019s about time&#8230; It\u2019s about time Congress faced its responsibility when it comes to the safety of the American people, when it comes to the security of their families in every way.<\/p>\n<p><img id=\"eZObject_128201\" class=\"img_middle\" align=\"middle\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/Pelosi-Blame-B.jpg\"\/><line xmlns:tmp=\"http:\/\/ez.no\/namespaces\/ezpublish3\/temporary\/\">RUSH: It\u2019s the Republicans\u2019 fault. Do these people have no shame? Here we have a train wreck, a derailment in Hoboken, and the first thing she&#8230; In fact, I bet that question was planted. I refuse to believe that a reporter has that knowledge at the top of his mind. That\u2019s so esoteric and down in the weeds. You\u2019re telling me a reporter knows that Congress didn\u2019t vote to implement some self-control program? So the Pelosi camp tips the reporter, and the reporter asked the question, so that she\u2019s not accused of just originating it.<\/line><\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I was just asked a question from an informed member of the press&#8230;&#8221; Right, and the answer gave her the opportunity to blame the Republicans for this. So we have at least one death, a hundred people injured, and the Democrats are already politicizing this and blaming it on the Republican Party. The party of open borders and who knows how much crime added to our streets because of illegal immigration that they sponsor. How about the crime that they sponsor with all of the politicization they\u2019ve engaged in in race relations in this country?<\/p>\n<p>And now Miss Pelosi wants to come along and claim the Republican Party has been lackadaisical in the security and safety of the American people. This is the party that just engineered the largest state sponsor of terrorism obtaining nuclear weapons. That\u2019d be our friends, the Iranians. And, look, I could go on and on with a list of all of the things this party has done that has put at greater risk the American people.<\/p>\n<p>But I point this out because we have a lot of Millennials out there &#8212; we have a lot of people in general &#8212; who say, &#8220;I don\u2019t like politics. I just hate it. It\u2019s always arguing and it\u2019s confrontational,&#8221; and I want you to understand who politicizes everything. You know, sadly, the Republican Party ends up being blamed for all the so-called &#8220;politics,&#8221; when it\u2019s used as a dirty word. Democrats are the corrupting agents. There is nothing sacred. There\u2019s nothing. There\u2019s no loss of life, there\u2019s no accident, there is no event that they will not exploit for political gain.<\/p>\n<p><img id=\"eZObject_128203\" class=\"img_right\" align=\"right\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/TrainCrash_large.jpg\"\/><line xmlns:tmp=\"http:\/\/ez.no\/namespaces\/ezpublish3\/temporary\/\">I haven\u2019t heard one Republican come out and try to blame this on the Democrats or on Obama or on terrorism policy or open borders or anything, \u2019cause nobody knows anything yet. But, boy, whenever one of these happens, be it a shooting&#8230; You watch. If there\u2019s a single person responsible for this, the next thing they\u2019ll try to do is show that this guy or girl, whoever did it, is a Tea Party member &#8212; or worse, a Trump supporter, or somebody who was rejected for membership at one of Trump\u2019s clubs.<\/line><\/p>\n<p>(interruption)<\/p>\n<p>Well, I don\u2019t think&#8230; If they can tag it as somebody that listens to me, sure, they would do that, but there are bigger fish right now in the presidential campaign. If they could tie something to Trump, if they could relate this to Trump&#8230; They\u2019re already relating it; they\u2019re blaming the Republicans for it. Now, you people that claim to hate politics, you Millennials and those of you who think you\u2019re apolitical &#8212; you\u2019re just going through life and you don\u2019t like all this &#8212; I want you to know who\u2019s responsible for this. You bought a whole bill of goods thinking the Republicans are the bad agents and the bad actors here.<\/p>\n<p>(chuckles) We wish that some of what your allegations are were true! (chuckling) But they\u2019re not. I mean, the Republicans aren\u2019t even&#8230; You know, there\u2019s a movement in Congress. After the override of the presidential veto on families being able to sue the Saudis, there\u2019s a group of Republicans that\u2019s already making a move to soften it, led by Lindsey Graham. There\u2019s twenty Republicans who just cannot&#8230; When they win, it\u2019s like, &#8220;Oh, my God, trouble! Now we&#8230; Oh, my God, they\u2019re gonna hate us!&#8221; It\u2019s like they think any time they win politically, that the American people are gonna hate \u2019em.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>RUSH: Just listen to this.
