Just earlier this week it was <a href=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/daily\/2018\/03\/08\/mueller-and-pencil-neck-sojourn-to-the-seychelles\/\">Erik Prince and the Seychelles that was gonna nail Trump, right<\/a>? And then before that, it was something else. It was Nunberg was gonna nail Trump, and then George Nader was gonna nail Trump, and he was setting up Trump for a back channel to talk with Russia a week before the inauguration. Wait a minute! Why would they need a back channel if they\u2019d been colluding with Russia for a year and a half?<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignright size-full wp-image-229398\" src=\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/RIH-DontDoubtMe.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"334\" height=\"222\">You know, everything that they have told us that they were gonna use to get rid of Trump has come and gone and Trump is still there. And, by the way, don\u2019t doubt me on this. I\u2019ve been told by people that are in a position to know that the original objective on this whole Trump collusion thing was to have him gone by the summer of 2017, by six months in. That was what everybody involved in it thought was gonna happen. That\u2019s why so many of the people were willing to compromise their integrity.<\/p>\n<p>Look, the media allowed themselves to be used every which way you can be used by the intelligence community. The media simply repeated what they were told. They didn\u2019t fact-check anything, didn\u2019t corroborate anything. They literally became mouthpieces. The media became the mouthpiece for the intelligence community and the deep state. They ran whatever they told \u2019em &#8212; and you know who was doing the ordering? It was the Obama administration.<\/p>\n<p>The Obama administration, we now know, was in charge of all this. The Obama administration was spying on Americans during their efforts to get a deal done with Iran over nukes. The Obama administration was spying on domestic Americans &#8212; Republicans &#8212; who opposed them. And since they got away with it, the media didn\u2019t call Obama on it. The Obama administration are not dumb. &#8220;Hey, if we can get away with spying on domestic opponents, why stop after the Iranian deal?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>So they kept it up on the Trump campaign, and the way they did it was exactly how we know they did it. They issued surveillance on the Russian ambassador and any number of other foreign agents that they knew members of the Trump campaign and the Republican Party would be talking to. One of them was the Russian ambassador. So not only did they get Michael Flynn this way, that\u2019s how they got Sessions recused. They leaked!<\/p>\n<p>The Obama administration through the media &#8212; the media acting as mouthpieces for the government, for the intelligence community, for Obama. They\u2019re surveilling Kislyak. Kislyak has a couple meetings with Sessions. They unmask Sessions (which is a felony), violating his privacy; then they leak within this heightened period and atmosphere. &#8220;Not only was Flynn talking to the Russians, so was Sessions!&#8221; They did this leak after Sessions was in the running for attorney general. That\u2019s how he recused himself.<\/p>\n<p>They engineered Sessions\u2019 recusal by unmasking him as a person the Russian ambassador was talking to. It was the media that was fulfilling this. One of the lead media actors here is a reporter that worked during this time for the New Yorker and for the Washington Post, a guy named Adam Entous. Adam Entous (E-n-t-o-u-s) is at the forefront of this simply acting as a mouthpiece for whatever James Clapper told him, whatever John Brennan\/CIA told him, whatever unnamed CIA or intelligence agents were telling him.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-full wp-image-265183 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/APP-022018-Swamp-Strikes-Back.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/APP-022018-Swamp-Strikes-Back.jpg 640w, https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/APP-022018-Swamp-Strikes-Back-300x169.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>He just ran with it, including a story&#8230; Do you remember this? They ran a story in this Trump business that the Russians had successfully shut down the electrical grid in Vermont. So they gave that story to Entous. He ran with it! He didn\u2019t check it. He didn\u2019t call people in Vermont at a grid or at the dam that was shut down. He just ran with it, and it turned out to be totally, 100% false. The electric grid not only wasn\u2019t taken down. It wasn\u2019t taken down by the Russians, and a gigantic dam in Vermont didn\u2019t stop, and yet it was reported.<\/p>\n<p>Well, when people like who these sources are &#8212; the intelligence agencies or Obama. When they see that they\u2019ve got a sponge and a mouthpiece like this, they keep using it, and that\u2019s basically how this happened. Now, one of the things to keep in mind is that the reporters &#8212; and Adam Entous is not the only one. There\u2019s all of them. But he really was at the top of the list in terms of people the Obama administration thought could do their bidding and not question them, not double-check them, not fact check them, not report them.<\/p>\n<p>Just repeat it. They did all this &#8212; people compromising their integrity in their jobs &#8212; because it was so important to get rid of Trump. It just was requirement A, B, C. They had to get rid of Trump, for all the reasons we\u2019ve been through: outsider, establishment, all this stuff. But the point is, they expected it to be done in six months. They expected that after six months of this that Trump would cry uncle or people would demand Trump go, and then everybody could go back to behaving like they were before Obama started spying on the media and others during the Iran negotiations, which was happening.<\/p>\n<p>We know this was happening. Obama was spying on the AP. Obama was spying on James Rosen of Fox News. He was spying on all kinds of people opposed to the Iran deal. But once they figured they got rid of Trump, then they could go back to just being sycophants rather than mouthpieces. Well, they haven\u2019t gotten rid of Trump, so they haven\u2019t stopped any of this. They haven\u2019t gotten rid of Trump.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-264774\" src=\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/APP-Deep-State.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/APP-Deep-State.jpg 640w, https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/APP-Deep-State-300x169.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/>So the same bastardization of media that happened with the Obama administration and the Iran deal is now continuing, and it may end up being something permanent. And what\u2019s ironic about this is, it\u2019s always been the Democrats that want to shut the intelligence community down. It\u2019s always the Democrats that hate the CIA. Frank Church from Indiana wanted to deal all kinds of negative blows to the CIA because of things they were doing around the world, upsetting duly elected countries and so forth.<\/p>\n<p>The fact that liberals are now acting as mouthpieces for the intelligence community is kind of staggering when you realize that these people genuinely have been suspicious and hated, the intelligence community. Now they\u2019re running whatever they say without question; they\u2019re leaking whatever they get; they\u2019re not reporting names of the sources or any of this &#8212; and it may become a permanent fixture of the way the media and the so-called deep state do business.<\/p>\n<p>Because what\u2019s happening now is not reporting.<\/p>\n<p>There isn\u2019t any journalism going on.<\/p>\n<p>We simply have elements of the establishment joining forces &#8212; in this case, the intelligence community, the Obama administration, and the media &#8212; to use brute force to achieve their objectives even if those objectives are overturning a duly constituted and legal election, which 2016 was. That\u2019s what we are still in the throes of, and the fact that they were unable to get rid of Trump in six months? That was a key element of this. They really believed they would be able to do this. Hell, Jimmy Kimmel!<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-264826\" src=\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/APP-021618-Kimmel-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/APP-021618-Kimmel-1.jpg 640w, https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/APP-021618-Kimmel-1-300x169.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/>Jimmy Kimmel last night after the North Korea talks were announced said (paraphrased), &#8220;It doesn\u2019t matter. It won\u2019t matter. Trump\u2019s not gonna be president by May so we don\u2019t have to worry about this meeting \u2019cause it isn\u2019t gonna happen, \u2019cause Trump\u2019s not gonna be president by then.&#8221; Why would Jimmy Kimmel, who\u2019s a genuinely beclowned himself guy now, be saying this? Who\u2019s telling him this? Well, we know he\u2019s got a pipeline to Chuck Schumer\u2019s office, but now who else? But they have totally corrupted themselves, and they\u2019ve done it willingly.<\/p>\n<p>The media has allowed itself to become pawns and tools of the CIA, the FBI, the National Security Agency. The media is now the exact opposite of what their sacred constitutional requirement is. They\u2019re supposed to be there holding truthful and powerful people accountable. Instead, they have been suborned. They have been subordinated. They have been controlled. They have been taken over and subsumed by the very people they\u2019re supposed to be looking out for. It\u2019s an amazing thing.<\/p>\n<p>The media has been rendered a bunch of sycophants, willingly. They did it willingly. Now the question is, can they roll back clock, turn back time, and once again assume&#8230; I mean, once you have gone down the path for a year and a half of reporting whatever the intel community and the Obama administration people want you to report, how do you turn tail and run? How do you now&#8230;? How do you stop what you\u2019re doing and all of a sudden report truthfully on \u2019em &#8212; the Democrats, I mean.<\/p>\n<p>Some in the media are very worried about what I just said because they know it. They\u2019re very concerned. They can\u2019t&#8230; Leftist reporters who are not buying into any of this relationship with the intelligence community and so forth &#8212; and they\u2019re pretty radical leftists. Glenn Greenwald. Steven Cohen of The Nation. There\u2019s a bunch of them out there that are not at all happening with what Chuck Todd and the CNN people have allowed to happen to them at the major networks. There is gonna be a breaking point to this.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>RUSH: Everything that they have told us that they were gonna use to get rid of Trump has come and gone and Trump is still there. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":49,"featured_media":265183,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_et_pb_use_builder":"","_et_pb_old_content":"","_et_gb_content_width":"","ngg_post_thumbnail":0},"categories":[12,1],"tags":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v17.6 -
