RUSH: This from The Daily Caller<\/a>. This is Chatsworth Osborne Jr.\u2019s website that he has now taken a leave from since he\u2019s doing his Fox show. “Nearly half of the country believes the news media poses an equal or greater threat to the nation as white supremacists, according to a new Fox News poll out Wednesday. The poll found that 47 percent of registered voters think white supremacists are a greater threat, 40 percent think the news media is, and nine percent believe both are equal threats.”<\/p>\n

I\u2019ll tell you what this shows. It shows the power of the fake news media to create a crisis out of literally nothing because there is no threat to America from white supremacists. The number of white supremacists, in relation to voters, wouldn\u2019t fill a bathtub. That\u2019s why this whole thing at Charlottesville was so blown out of proportion. There aren\u2019t enough neo-Nazis, there aren\u2019t enough members of the Klan, and there aren\u2019t enough white supremacists to elect anybody.<\/p>\n

\"\"They are not growing. They are not attracting new members. They did not elect Donald Trump. They are not Donald Trump\u2019s base. They\u2019re not the Republican Party\u2019s base. There is no Alt-Right. It\u2019s all made up. For a Fox poll to suggest that nearly half the country thinks that white supremacists are doing more damage than the media? This is a testament to how the media can create fake news and then expand it and balloon it and blow it up way beyond proportion.<\/p>\n

The point is that the white supremacists and the Nazis and the KKK don\u2019t have any power. They don\u2019t have a single thing that they can do. Not true of these madmen on the left because they are the militarized wing of the American left, which is the Democrat Party and the media. And they are intimidating people, and they are bullying people. These people, Antifa, they\u2019re college professors. They\u2019re professors\u2019 assistants. They\u2019ve got like-minded people running the media, running various aspects of it.<\/p>\n

So it\u2019s silly. So you look at this on one hand, “Wow, nation split over whether media or white supremacists doing more damage.” The white supremacists, there\u2019s not enough of them to do any damage. And certainly not any electoral damage.<\/p>\n

From TheHill.com. “Trump\u2019s Growing Economy Faces Fall Obstacles.<\/a>” So now here the media are back to their fearmongering about a government shutdown and a debt ceiling crisis going back to their playbook. This is a reaction to Trump\u2019s speech on taxes, tax reform in Springfield.<\/p>\n

“President Trump on Wednesday touted the U.S. economy\u2019s 3 percent growth in the second quarter and boasted that the best is yet to come. In a speech meant to sell his tax-reform plan, Trump said the latest statistics highlight how he\u2019s fulfilling his promise to strengthen the U.S. economy.”<\/p>\n

“Whether the economy continues to grow may depend on how Trump and Congress navigate a series of thorny political issues in the next month that include measures to prevent a government shutdown and raise the nation\u2019s borrowing limit.”<\/p>\n

Well, you know where I come down. Borrowing limit needs to not be expanded, and who cares if there\u2019s a shutdown. But that\u2019s just me. But the bottom line is, Trump\u2019s growing economy. They can\u2019t deny it. The Washington Post tried to put the 3% economic growth on page A-18. TheHill.com is dealing with it here, and they admit that Trump\u2019s economy is growing, but it faces obstacles.<\/p>\n

\"\"Do you think poor Obama\u2019s piddling little economic recovery ever was said to face obstacles? No. Obama\u2019s tiddlywink little recovery was portrayed as one of the strongest, one of the greatest postwar recoveries ever. And I don\u2019t think they ever characterized Obama as boasting about it, no, because he was so smart, and he was so humble. Just a wonderful guy.<\/p>\n

This next story, I saw this and it ticked me off, and it probably will you too. It\u2019s from Breitbart. “A spokeswoman for Speaker of the House Paul Ryan condemned the radical left-wing protest group Antifa on Thursday evening, describing them as ‘left-wing thugs.\u2019 In a statement provided to The Daily Caller, Ryan\u2019s spokeswoman AshLee Strong said: ‘Speaker Ryan believes, as is obvious, these individuals are left-wing thugs, and those who are committing violence need to be arrested and prosecuted. Antifa is a scourge on our country.'”<\/p>\n

Okay, fine. Well, where was this last week in Charlottesville? The group hasn\u2019t changed between now and then. But Speaker Ryan was just one of a number of Republicans that wouldn\u2019t go anywhere near condemning Antifa. Instead, they had to condemn Trump for not properly praising Antifa by claiming that Antifa had violence on its side, by claiming that Antifa shared in the blame. Really raked Trump over the coals.<\/p>\n

And we now find out the media was totally changing, lying about what Trump had said. And the thing that bothers me about this, the Republicans are well versed in how the media does this. The media lies and has been lying about Republicans for as long as Paul Ryan\u2019s been old enough to remember. He knows of their lies about his own plans as speaker. He knows how they lied about George W. Bush. He knows how they lied about Mitt Romney not paying his taxes, because he was his running mate.<\/p>\n

He knows all that and yet when the media comes out and starts condemning Trump for not specifically criticizing only one side of the protest group, where is the doubt? Where is the experience? Where are Republicans saying, “Slow down here.” Where are the Republicans, “Wait a minute. Did Trump really say that? We know the media makes it up. We know the media lies.” Why the automatic, slavish belief and then piling on with the media.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>And then you learn a week later that the media was correcting themselves in the New York Times<\/a>, making it up, and a week later you have to go out as a Republican, “You know what? I was wrong. They\u2019re thugs. They\u2019re bad people.” Why couldn\u2019t you say that at the time? ‘Cause everybody knew it. You know, Nancy Pelosi too. Pelosi said the same thing through a spokeswoman.<\/p>\n

So Pelosi and Paul Ryan have now admitted that Trump\u2019s post-Charlottesville comments were accurate. That\u2019s what this really means. A spokeswoman for Speaker of the House Ryan condemned the radical left-wing protest group Antifa. That\u2019s what Trump did about a week and a half, two weeks ago, they were all over Trump. He\u2019s insensitive, it\u2019s embarrassing, and he doesn\u2019t speak for me and this is boorish. Now they\u2019re admitting that Trump was right.<\/p>\n

Will they apologize to Trump? Will Gary Cohn apologize to Trump? Will Rex Tillerson apologize to Trump? Will all of these people who believed the lying, stinking media, will they apologize to Trump now that everybody for some reason has seen the truth about this group, and not just this group but every other violent left-wing group. Because, again, Trump has been proven right. Trump makes a statement on Antifa, he made three statements on Antifa. The Drive-Bys, the Democrats, the Never Trumpers rushed to the microphones and Twitter to condemn Trump and lie about what he said.<\/p>\n

After a certain passage of time, reality sets in, Antifa goes on to prove it\u2019s a bunch of lawless thugs at other protests like in Berkeley. They just couldn\u2019t help themselves. I mean, Antifa shows up when there wasn\u2019t any opposition and started beating heads, lighting firecrackers and doing general mayhem. The Democrat Party\u2019s got no control over \u2019em. And why do you think Pelosi\u2019s speaking out? Pelosi\u2019s speaking out, I told you yesterday, there are a slew of Democrats that are actually worried about this.<\/p>\n

You know what\u2019s happened here? This is like the kids have believed it too much. The Democrats, through their universities, their professors, and the media, have been filling these kids with nothing but raw hatred. Republicans are gonna kill you. Republicans are gonna starve your children. Republicans are gonna push grandma over the cliff. Well, a bunch of these young whippersnapper Democrats from kids on saw that crap, and they believed it, and now they are filled with overflowing rage and hatred.<\/p>\n

And the Democrat Party did this. And the media did this. And their professors did this, because this is the kind of garbage that\u2019s been taught. This is the kind of political language that they have heard and they have believed it. They believe Republicans want to starve their kids. They believe the Republicans want to kill people, because that\u2019s what the Democrats and the media have been saying.<\/p>\n

So now these kids are grown up, they\u2019ve become these anarchists, Antifa, whatever they are. Many of them are bought and paid for just looking for action. And they believe it, and the Democrats now are get a little worried \u2019cause the kids are going a little overboard. And the reason the Democrats are getting worried is because this kind of stuff — you know, the media loves it.<\/p>\n
