RUSH: You know, folks, it\u2019s like the libs\u2019 real purpose behind something is often obscured and camouflaged. If you look, for example, this latest attempt here to boycott advertisers at Fox News. They\u2019ve tried that with Sean Hannity. They tried it with Ted Baxter, and they got rid of Baxter. They were able to get rid of Bill O\u2019Reilly. And this latest one is about Laura Ingraham and her supposed unserious taunting apology to David Camera Hogg, Parkland, Florida, high school fame. And so the response is, “Hey, she apologized.”<\/p>\n

\"\"“Well, it wasn\u2019t good enough. Well, she didn\u2019t mean it,” blah, blah. At some point it obfuscates what really is happening here. These things happen like clockwork. There is an entire left-wing apparatus set up to run these operations. And the ultimate objective for all of these — and Bill Jacobson, William Jacobson, Legal Insurrection, writes about this today, and he has a great term for what this actually is, and it is the attempt to deplatform American conservatives, take away conservative platforms, take away Fox News, not just a couple of hosts, but just get rid of the whole entity.<\/p>\n

Get rid of the EIB Network. The EIB Network is one person. That is me. But wherever the platforms are, be they social media, be they Fox News, cable news, be they radio, podcasts, whatever, the objective, the long-term objective is not to debate conservatives and it\u2019s really not to force conservatives to behave the right way. That\u2019s not what this is about. I mean, if it were about that, for example, at some point Camera Hogg would be satisfied with whatever apology and attention he\u2019s getting and going away.<\/p>\n

That\u2019s what Camera Hogg\u2019s doing, or his advisers, whoever is telling him to do this, because with every conservative response to every complaint Camera Hogg has he doubles down to the intensity and on the allegations and nothing\u2019s good enough for him. Just like with Rubio. Rubio, the one Republican that showed up at the CNN town hall, the one Republican who\u2019s tried to meet these kids and their adult sponsors halfway, to come up with some kind of compromise on guns and schools, look what happens!<\/p>\n

They target Rubio like he\u2019s the most obstinate opponent they\u2019ve got<\/a>. They don\u2019t want any part of any compromise. And they have to kill, in a political since, they\u2019ve gotta kill any Republican that offers compromise. The last thing in the world these people are gonna do is accept a half measure or a compromise. That\u2019s not what they want. They want total absolution, and that means the confiscation of guns.<\/p>\n

They want the end of Fox News, not just a couple of hosts to get fired. And that\u2019s what all of this is about, and it always has been. It\u2019s not about crossing the aisle, meeting them halfway or finding areas in common where we can work together, bipartisanship, all of that. That\u2019s just the cover for it. It\u2019s the long-term objective to just eliminate conservatism as any kind of competitor.<\/p>\n

\"\"And if you keep that perspective in mind every time you follow one of these stories about some supposed conservative who said something outrageous and needs to apologize for it or this or that, keep in mind what the real objective is. It\u2019s not to straighten that conservative out, not to make that conservative fly right, straighten up and fly right, not to make that conservative apologize. It\u2019s to get rid of. And this is what\u2019s always amazed me when these things happen. The whole of the conservative movement does not arise to defend those under assault.<\/p>\n

I\u2019ll just tell you, many in the conservative movement say to themselves, “Wow, thank God it\u2019s not me” and shut up and hope they don\u2019t become targets. And if other conservatives are lost in the battle, fine, as long as it\u2019s not them. But you will not see a robust movement-wide defense of anybody under assault. And in fact the weakest conservatives will join the critics trying to gain favor with the critics, trying to be exempted from the target area of the critics!<\/p>\n

And it is what we are in the midst of now, and illegal immigration, guns, whatever the issue is, that is the ultimate objective, is the elimination of, in this case, conservatives and platforms, in the case of immigration, the destruction of the distinct, unique American culture, \u2019cause they\u2019re people that don\u2019t like this country. It\u2019s not that they want to reform it. Reform, in my book, means to improve, and that\u2019s not what these people have in mind.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
