This is happening on C-SPAN or it did happen moments ago. The House immigration committee was having a hearing, and the secretary of Homeland Security was being grilled, was being interrogated, Kirstjen Nielsen.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-295294\" src=\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/12\/APP-122018-Luis-Gutierrez-77.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/12\/APP-122018-Luis-Gutierrez-77.jpg 640w, https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/12\/APP-122018-Luis-Gutierrez-77-300x169.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/>Apparently from my spies who have been watching C-SPAN on this, Democrat representative from Illinois Luis Gutierrez started making fun of and ridiculing people who say &#8220;Christmas&#8221; instead of &#8220;holiday season.&#8221; It used to be the other way around. It used to be &#8220;Merry Christmas.&#8221; It used to be the Christmas season. It used to be Christmas this, Christmas that, and then the politically correct crowd got in gear and said, &#8220;That\u2019s discriminatory! Not everybody believes in Christmas. You\u2019re insulting people by saying Christmas.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>So it became &#8220;the holiday season&#8221; and became &#8220;happy holidays,&#8221; and if you said, &#8220;Merry Christmas,&#8221; somebody climbed in your chili, got mad at you claimed you\u2019re being selfish and discriminatory and you\u2019re bringing other people down, being exclusionary, all these horrible, rotten things. So everybody dutifully started wishing everybody, &#8220;Happy holidays&#8221; instead of &#8220;Merry Christmas,&#8221; and it got to the point when you saw somebody or heard somebody say Merry Christmas, it was unique, when it used to be standard operating procedure.<\/p>\n<p>So now Luis Gutierrez for some reason at this hearing started mocking people who say &#8220;Christmas&#8221; instead of &#8220;holiday season.&#8221; And then he said that Donald Trump &#8220;would share responsibility for killing Baby Jesus because Baby Jesus had to flee.&#8221; It\u2019s a reference to open borders. And then he said, &#8220;Thank God there was no wall when Mary and Joseph needed to go to Bethlehem.&#8221; For crying out loud!<\/p>\n<p>Just <a href=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/daily\/2018\/12\/19\/new-york-magazine-says-trump-hates-christmas-parties\/\">yesterday this nutcase at New York Magazine, Olivia Nuzzi<\/a> reported that people in the White House, she\u2019s hearing from people in the White House that Donald Trump doesn\u2019t like Christmas parties. You know why Donald Trump doesn\u2019t like Christmas parties? &#8216;Cause he\u2019s jealous. He\u2019s jealous that all the attention\u2019s focused on Jesus instead of him. Yeah. Donald Trump jealous of Jesus. And that\u2019s why Trump doesn\u2019t like Christmas parties.<\/p>\n<p>That\u2019s actually reported and it was actually discussed on CNN. The infobabe that she was telling this to, the anchor, believed it. (summarized) &#8220;Well, we\u2019ve heard some stories about Trump\u2019s ego. I guess, yeah, he could be jealous of Jesus. It\u2019s a strange thing to hear, but, yeah, I guess it\u2019s not outside the bounds of possibility.&#8221; Come on. This is just. (laughing) So now Luis Gutierrez says Donald Trump &#8220;would share responsibility for killing Baby Jesus.&#8221; Immigration didn\u2019t kill Baby Jesus.<\/p>\n<p>What\u2019s he talking about here? Jesus had to flee? Thank God there was no wall? And then he accused Kirstjen Nielsen of lying on the policy of separating mothers from their children at the border, which is another made up lie by the Democrats that the media dutifully report as though it\u2019s common practice every day. And that\u2019s worked too. I\u2019ve had, I can\u2019t tell you the number of Republicans say, &#8220;The pictures are really bad, Rush.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/-_53uVBzfdc\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>&#8220;What do you mean, pictures?

Don\u2019t you understand, Albert? It\u2019s not happening.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I don\u2019t care, Rush.

You gotta admit the pictures look bad.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Whatever happened to, &#8220;It isn\u2019t happening?&#8221; Why can\u2019t you &#8212; when people start complaining about the pictures tell them the pictures are lies? Some people don\u2019t want to fight the battles. Anyway, it was on C-SPAN within the past hour. The way these people invoke Jesus&#8230; I couldn\u2019t believe it when I heard the Democrats were singing Christmas carols on the floor of the House last night, celebrating their apparent victory at shutting down any attempt at a wall or any attempt at border security.<\/p>\n<p>BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Jay in Dallas. You\u2019re next. I\u2019m glad you waited. Hi.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: Hi, Rush. I\u2019d like to address that idiotic comment the guy made about if Trump would have been in control, he would have built the wall in Israel and kept Jesus out of Bethlehem?<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Right.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: The difference is Mary and Joseph were legal Israelites! That\u2019s it. That\u2019s the difference &#8212; and they were obeying the Roman law. So these guys that quote scripture and don\u2019t know what they\u2019re talking about, they drive me nuts, and he\u2019s wrong.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Mary and Joseph were obeying tax law. They had to show up and be counted and pay taxes &#8212; and when they got where they were going, there wasn\u2019t any room. Here\u2019s the sound bite, by the way. We have it. It\u2019s Luis Gutierrez and it\u2019s at a House Judiciary Committee oversight on the Department of Homeland Security, and they\u2019re grilling Secretary Kirstjen Nielsen.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-295260\" src=\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/12\/APP-122018-Luis-Gutierrez-strip.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"264\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/12\/APP-122018-Luis-Gutierrez-strip.jpg 640w, https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/12\/APP-122018-Luis-Gutierrez-strip-300x124.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/>GUTIERREZ: Have to call \u2019em &#8220;the holiday seasons&#8221; to be inclusive. But during Christmas &#8212; \u2019cause the majority always wants to just call it Christmas. But during Christmas, a time in which we celebrate the birth of Jesus Christ &#8212; a Jesus Christ who has to flee for his life with Mary and Joseph. Thank God there wasn\u2019t a wall that stopped him from seeking refuge in Egypt. (sic) Thank God that wall wasn\u2019t there, and thank God there wasn\u2019t an administration like this or he would have, too, have perished on the 28th, on the Day of Innocence (sic) when Herod ordered the murder of every child under two years of age. Thank God.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Luis, uh, Jesus did not travel with Mary and Joseph. Mary was pregnant. Thank God you weren\u2019t around then or that wouldn\u2019t even have been the case. There wasn\u2019t a wall involved here, but, &#8220;Jesus Christ who had to flee for his life with Mary&#8221;? Jesus was just unviable tissue mass at the time this happened, Luis, in your world. I mean, these people started misappropriating stories and details. It used to be Mary and Joseph were homeless, and that\u2019s why we had to extend every benefit for the homeless \u2019cause you never know.
