I get the sense that you\u2019re holding back today.&#8221; Holding back, huh? Uh, no, my friends. I\u2019m not holding back. I\u2019m waiting to hear what is said at the upcoming press conference. The media is eagerly anticipating. And it\u2019s upcoming. They\u2019re seated at the Department of Justice waiting for whoever\u2019s gonna conduct this to explain how they found the guy, who the guy is, if they found anybody else working with the guy.<\/p>\n<p>Are there co-conspirators? Are there accomplices? Is there somebody that has been working on this guy for some period of time, inspiring him, motivating him, revving him up? I mean, there\u2019s so much that we don\u2019t know yet, and we don\u2019t know what we\u2019re gonna be told. We don\u2019t know how credible what we\u2019re gonna be told is. Despite all of that, there is enough information to glean simply by exposing yourself to that which is reported so far today.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-290128\" src=\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/APP-102618-Intelligence.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/APP-102618-Intelligence.jpg 640w, https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/APP-102618-Intelligence-300x169.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/>When you add that to what you know or think you know about all of the various political players involved here and do you think, for example, that the deep state&#8230; Not just the Democrat Party. See, I can\u2019t ever put out of my head what has been done these past two years on this totally bogus investigation to prove Trump colluded with Russia.<\/p>\n<p>That is so big, that is so outrageous, what has been done in these past two years. Ignoring the real collusion and the real criminality and not even investigating it. Planting spies in the Trump campaign. Lying to the president about whether he\u2019s a target or not. Literally trying to set up Trump employees, staffers and so forth &#8212; set them up so that they behave in certain ways as to give the impression that Trump is colluding with Russia, that Russia was involved, that somehow that election was illegitimate.<\/p>\n<p>That project is still ongoing! It\u2019s ongoing in the form of the Mueller investigation, and along that line, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.politico.com\/story\/2018\/10\/26\/papadopolous-plea-deal-942346\">George Papadopoulos<\/a> &#8212; who at one time was the guy the FBI told us was the reason this investigation began? George Papadopoulos is now claiming that what he has learned in these past two years, he\u2019s thinking of withdrawing his plea agreement with Mueller. Just briefly to recall: Papadopoulos was a young, eager beaver so-called foreign policy adviser on the Trump campaign.<\/p>\n<p>He never met Trump. He never gave him any advice. But he was hired early because the media was hounding Trump, &#8220;Who are your advisers? Who\u2019s on the&#8230;?&#8221; So he fills out these positions. Papadopoulos was set up. He was invited to London by one of the spies the FBI embedded the Trump campaign, guy named Stefan Halper. He was then introduced to a professor from Malta named Joseph Mifsud who planted in his mind the idea, &#8220;Hey, George, do you know this? Do you know this? Do you know the Russians have a whole lot of Hillary\u2019s emails?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;No, I didn\u2019t know that!&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Papadopoulos is a 24-year-old kid. He thinks he\u2019s being told something really big. So they tell him this. Then he finds himself having adult beverages with the ambassador from Australia at a bar in London, and the ambassador to Papadopoulos says, &#8220;You know, we know that the Russians have a lot of Hillary email.&#8221; So this ambassador goes back and reports to the FBI what Papadopoulos told him. Well, they planted it in his head!<\/p>\n<p>He didn\u2019t know it independently because it probably isn\u2019t even true. So Papadopoulos is spreading the word that the Trump campaign knew that the Russians had Hillary emails? At one point that\u2019s what they told us was the starting point for the investigation to go get the FISA warrants. It\u2019s all bogus! That was not when the investigation started. It started way before that. My point is, how much the deep state wants their government back, we don\u2019t even really understand.<\/p>\n<p>We think we do, but we don\u2019t have any idea. These people have an entitlement to our government &#8212; the strings, the levers of power, their positions in it &#8212; that you and I cannot relate to. We can do our best to try to understand it, but they think they own it. It\u2019s theirs. They are scared to death that the actions that I just described, the Mueller investigation, this whole two-year silent coup&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>They are hell-bent that none of what they\u2019ve done ever really see the light of day, that nobody ever find out. And the fastest way to making sure that nobody ever finds out is to make sure the Democrats win control of the House and eventually get the Senate and the White House back and then everything\u2019s cool. The cover-up will continue. Nobody will ever know what really happened. These people who might be facing jail time or other serious criminal problems will be spared.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-287524\" src=\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/APP-100818-Trump-Miss-Rally.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/APP-100818-Trump-Miss-Rally.jpg 640w, https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/APP-100818-Trump-Miss-Rally-300x169.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>That\u2019s another reason why Hillary had to win &#8212; and the Mueller investigation, I believe, is an attempt to distract everybody and be a cover-up for the real conspiracy and the real coup and the real collusion that went on. Well, if I believe all of that to be true &#8212; and I do, and I know it is true. I have no doubts about it. Those people are capable of anything to get what they want. I have no doubt about it, and I\u2019m sorry; it\u2019s not my fault for being suspicious.<\/p>\n<p>They have made me suspicious, and all of you. That attempt, this ongoing attempt to destroy Donald Trump, to overturn the election results of 2016 &#8212; and it was codified (epitomized, if you will) in what they\u2019ve tried to do to Brett Kavanaugh. It\u2019s no different. And they aren\u2019t going to stop. I don\u2019t need to be told or reminded how fit-to-be-tied enraged they are over their failure to get rid of Trump.<\/p>\n<p>I know their psychology. I know these people in the media, and I know that these democrats, folks, they are just beside themselves that everything they\u2019ve got in their arsenal of weapons hasn\u2019t worked. So given that &#8212; this is the sum total of intelligence guided by experience &#8212; I don\u2019t believe&#8230; I\u2019m not gonna believe just because I\u2019m told than that happened the way it did. And that\u2019s a shame.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s a shame that the highest levels of our government have gotten to the point where distrusting them is a common-sensical thing to do. But they\u2019ve brought this on. All of these nameless, faceless, anonymous sources with all of this utter BS. &#8220;Every day for two years, New York Times, CNN (impression), &#8220;Intelligence community sources and former American intelligence officials tell the New York Times that&#8221; blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.<\/p>\n<p>Every day, sometimes many times a day for a year, two years. Stuff made up out of whole cloth &#8212; news stories literally made up &#8212; all to advance the agenda of essentially canceling the election results from 2016 and finding a way to get Donald Trump out of office. There\u2019s a list of people &#8212; Democrats, Republican, moderates, independents, Never Trumpers on the conservative side &#8212; the whole of the Washington establishment.<\/p>\n<p>So here we are two weeks before the midterm elections. The Democrats have to win! They have to win it. They\u2019ve told everybody that the American people are tired of Trump, and they want to get rid of him. They realize their mistake. They\u2019ve been telling everybody there\u2019s gonna be a blue wave. It\u2019s a fait accompli. Nate Silver: 85% chance!<\/p>\n<p>Two weeks out a bunch of bombs start showing up in places that the media can then say that they are being received by &#8220;Trump targets&#8221;? I\u2019m sorry. I didn\u2019t fall off the turnip truck ever, and certainly not yesterday, and the world of October Surprises coupled with all the other realities I just exposed, and I think it only makes sense to be suspicious and demanding of proof for whatever we\u2019re gonna be told.<\/p>\n<p>BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: It\u2019s just <a href=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/daily\/2018\/10\/25\/two-shameful-despicable-stories-from-the-new-york-times\/\">like that news that Trump is using an unsecured phone to talk to the ChiCom<\/a>s. Does anybody really believe that, that Trump knowingly uses an secure phone, knowingly lets ChiComs listen to what Trump is saying, that\u2019s how stupid Trump is? Do we believe that? Hell, no, as they say.<\/p>\n<p>BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Yes, my friends, the Democrats have to win the House. If they don\u2019t, the Mueller investigation wraps; the GOP can finally see every document involved here. The biggest scandal in our lifetimes will unfold. An attempt to rig an election, and then an ongoing effort to undo that election &#8212; and then to overthrow a duly elected president &#8212; will be exposed. That\u2019s what must continue to be covered up. That\u2019s why the Democrats, among other things, have to win the House.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>RUSH: So here we are two weeks before the midterm elections.
