Nick, glad you waited. Welcome to our program. Hi.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: (garbled cell) Hello, Mr. Limbaugh. Mega dittos from Houston, Texas.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Thank you, sir.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: I am&#8230; (unintelligible) I am a TSA officer here in Houston, and two days we heard rumblings of why they want to reopen the government temporarily. If I may, can I just lead you to the answer real quick or do you want me to give you the answer?<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Okay, go. I\u2019ve got about a minute and a half here so, yeah, tell me what you know.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: Okay. All right. I\u2019ll hurry up. Atlanta is the airport where they\u2019re having a shortage issue and the wait times are around two hours plus. But what\u2019s happening next month, early next month in Atlanta? The Super Bowl. They just want us to open so we can process the Super Bowl passengers back and forth and then close it down.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: A-ha. A-ha! That\u2019s right. The teams arrive at the Super Bowl on Sunday and Monday, and then the fan base overpaying for everything will start arriving on Monday and through the week and they gotta get Atlanta open and operating with full TSA to be able to process all those people getting into Atlanta. There\u2019s stories today that LaGuardia is pulling back on flights because of shortages of personnel and air traffic control.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-297721\" src=\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/APP-012519-Super-Bowl-x.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/APP-012519-Super-Bowl-x.jpg 640w, https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/APP-012519-Super-Bowl-x-300x169.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>And the way CNN\u2019s reporting that is, &#8220;Yeah, if you had your own jet like a lot of these rich Trump supporters do and you\u2019re unable to get into New York, you\u2019re damn well gonna demand that the shutdown end.&#8221; You may be on to something out there, Nick. So we reopen things and we pay people long enough to get people into the Super Bowl (laughing) and then we shut down again until it\u2019s time to get \u2019em out of Atlanta. We\u2019ll see. We\u2019re gonna know here in a few short minutes.
