He\u2019s saying that victims of hate crimes going forward are never gonna be believed anymore, this is a travesty. It is the exact opposite of what our caller from the south side of Chicago was saying.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-full wp-image-303947 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/APP-032619-Emanuel-Johnson-CNN.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/APP-032619-Emanuel-Johnson-CNN.jpg 640w, https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/APP-032619-Emanuel-Johnson-CNN-300x169.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>He is livid, Eddie Johnson is livid, and we\u2019re gonna have the audio for all of this, I guarantee you, but I am not going to be distracted by it, folks. I have some things I intend to say about this. I\u2019m not gonna let the whole Mueller story be erased and be taken off of everybody\u2019s front page by this story today, which I think may also be a factor going on.<\/p>\n<p>BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: And now fulfilling a promise. We\u2019ll go back to Chicago. And here are the audio sound bites of a very upset Eddie Johnson, police superintendent of Chicago, and the mayor, Rahm Emanuel. And, as I said, there are a bunch of law enforcement people from all kinds of spectrums &#8212; defense lawyers, prosecutors, they\u2019re all saying they\u2019ve not seen anything like this.<\/p>\n<p>A slam dunk case. I mean, who does Smollett think he is, Hillary Clinton? She\u2019s the only one that gets away with stuff like this. She\u2019s covered up for, she\u2019s not charged, she\u2019s exonerated before she\u2019s even interviewed. They let people come in and act as her lawyers who were nothing more than her hack PR people.<\/p>\n<p>They proclaim her innocent because she didn\u2019t intend to break the law by having an illegal private email server where she was trafficking in classified documents. And Obama knew it because he was emailing her on that address to her private server.<\/p>\n<p>So 16 counts just have disappeared against Jussie Smollett! They never happened. His record\u2019s gonna be expunged. It never took place. Here is Eddie Johnson, the superintendent of police earlier this afternoon in Chicago.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/7E45gPnqnCA\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>JOHNSON: You all know where I stand on this. Do I think justice was served? No. Where do I think justice is? I think this city is still owed an apology. I\u2019ve been a cop now for about 31 years. When I came on the job, I came on with my honor, my integrity, and my reputation. If someone accused me of doing anything that would circumvent that, I would want my day in court, period, to clear my name. I\u2019ve heard that they wanted their day in court with TV cameras so America could know the truth, but no, they chose to hide behind secrecy and broker a deal to circumvent the judicial system.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Here is the mayor of Chicago, Rahm Emanuel, who is livid. And I\u2019m shocked to say, many of the things I\u2019ve heard him say I have to agree with. I never thought that day would happen, either.<\/p>\n<p>EMANUEL:\u00a0\u00a0He did this all in the name of self-promotion, and he used the laws of hate crime legislation that all of us collectively, over years, have put on the books to stand up to be the values that embody what we believe in.\u00a0\u00a0This is a whitewash of justice.\u00a0\u00a0The grand jury could not have been clearer.\u00a0\u00a0You cannot have, because of a person\u2019s position, one set of rules apply to them and another set of rules apply to everybody else.<\/p>\n<p>In another way, you\u2019re seeing this play out in the universities, where people pay extra to get the their kids a special position in universities.\u00a0\u00a0Now you have a person, because of their position and background, who\u2019s getting treated in a way that nobody else would ever get close to this type of treatment.\u00a0\u00a0This without a doubt a whitewash of justice and sends a clear message that if you\u2019re in a position of influence and power, you\u2019ll get treated one way; other people will be treated another way.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:\u00a0\u00a0Well, he ought to know.\u00a0\u00a0He worked for the Clintons for a while, and they regularly were able to take advantage of this duel system.\u00a0\u00a0Mrs. Clinton is still the kingpin in getting away with it &#8212; and that\u2019s what needs to stop.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>RUSH: Here are the audio sound bites of a very upset Eddie Johnson, police superintendent of Chicago, and the mayor, Rahm Emanuel.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":49,"featured_media":303947,"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 -
