The Drive-Bys won\u2019t stop asking about it. I guess Trump last night made some reference again to all of the illegals who voted, and the Drive-Bys just keep going back to it today. And Spicer says (paraphrasing), &#8220;Look, there\u2019s no investigation. We\u2019re thinking of having one. There\u2019s nothing new here, you people. The president has said that he believed a number of illegal people voted for a long time. He referenced it again last night, and you\u2019re acting like it\u2019s something new. It isn\u2019t anything new.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>And they are acting like it\u2019s something new. They will not let go of it. They are demanding evidence. They are demanding an investigation. They\u2019re demanding that Trump back it up. They\u2019re demanding that Spicer back it up. (laughing) You know what? There\u2019s even a couple of Russian journalists that are in the briefing today. (laughing) Russian journalists, folks! With the Drive-Bys thinking the Russians hacked the election and Trump\u2019s team has welcomed Russian journalists.<\/p>\n<p>Everybody knows Russia doesn\u2019t have journalists; they have hacks. (laughing) This is in their face. At least that\u2019s what it appears to me. I haven\u2019t had a chance to watch the whole thing here. But that\u2019s what it seems to me to be.<\/p>\n<p>BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: I have a couple sound bites. I\u2019ve been talking about the press briefing with Sean Spicer and the Drive-Bys here. It turns out the woman I thought was Julie Pace AP was actually, what\u2019s her name, Cecilia Vega, and she\u2019s with ABC. We have two sound bites on this, and this is Cecilia Vega bringing up the subject of Trump believing that a bunch of illegals voted in the last election.<\/p>\n<p>VEGA: Does the president believe that millions voted illegally in this election, and what evidence do you have of widespread voter fraud in this election, if that\u2019s the case?<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/edv7pVkZ2VI\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>SPICER: The president does believe that. He\u2019s stated that before. I think he stated his concerns of voter fraud and people voting illegally during the campaign. He continues to maintain that belief based on studies and evidence that people have presented to him.<\/p>\n<p>VEGA: But exactly what evidence? Speaker Ryan today says there\u2019s no evidence. The National Association of Secretaries of State say that they don\u2019t agree with the president\u2019s assessment. What evidence do you have?<\/p>\n<p>SPICER: As I said, I think the president has believed that for a while based on studies and information he has.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: All right. So then they went off on other things and Mara Liasson had her turn. She asked about the VA hiring freeze. Then she got back to this claim &#8212; you can tell the Drive-Bys don\u2019t believe it happened and they\u2019ve got all this other evidence, the National Association of Secretaries of State, transgender and otherwise, all say it didn\u2019t happen. Paul Ryan says it didn\u2019t.<\/p>\n<p>Look, there is voter fraud out there and it\u2019s been documented time and time again and the reason that the Democrats are opposed to voter ID is so they can continue to engage in voter fraud. It is simple. Voter fraud occurs. And voter ID, a photo ID proving you are who you are and that you\u2019re registered, the Democrats oppose that, \u2019cause it\u2019s one of the greatest techniques of preventing voter fraud there is. Anyway, Mara Liasson got back to it later on in her questioning.<\/p>\n<p>LIASSON: Just to follow up on Cecilia.<\/p>\n<p>SPICER: Yeah.<\/p>\n<p>LIASSON: If three to five million people voted illegally, that is a scandal of astronomical proportions. Doesn\u2019t he want to restore American\u2019s faith in their ballot system? Wouldn\u2019t he want an investigation of this?<\/p>\n<p>SPICER: Well, you know, but, Mara, as I noted several times now, he\u2019s believed this for a long time. And I think he won fairly overwhelmingly, so he\u2019s not &#8212; (crosstalk)<\/p>\n<p>LIASSON: I\u2019m asking you why not investigate something &#8212;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/01\/DriveByMedia-GENERIC.jpg\" data-rel=\"lightbox-image-0\" data-rl_title=\"\" data-rl_caption=\"\" title=\"\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-218918\" src=\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/01\/DriveByMedia-GENERIC.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"585\" height=\"275\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/01\/DriveByMedia-GENERIC.jpg 585w, https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/01\/DriveByMedia-GENERIC-300x141.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 585px) 100vw, 585px\" \/><\/a>SPICER: Maybe we will.<\/p>\n<p>LIASSON: This is the biggest scandal in American electoral history, three to five million people voting illegally?<\/p>\n<p>SPICER: And I think we\u2019ll see where we go from here, but right now the focus that the president has is on putting Americans back to work. It\u2019s a comment he made on a long-standing belief.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: You find it ironic that (imitating Liasson) &#8220;Well, that would be the biggest scandal in the world, three and a half million people voting illegally.&#8221; Wait a minute, I thought the Russians hacking the election was the big scandal? And all of a sudden the Drive-Bys are out there saying it\u2019s this? That would be the biggest scandal? By the way, Trump\u2019s never said three to five million. I think the number was two million. It\u2019s never been three to five million.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>RUSH: They will not let go of it. They are demanding evidence.
