RUSH:\u00a0 Now, at the California Democrat convention… This was a prelude of things to come.\u00a0 In addition to Hickenlooper being booed practically offstage for saying socialism doesn\u2019t work, and with the assembled multitudes demanding that Pelosi impeach Trump and just be done with it, they also — the candidates that were there — tore into Biden.\u00a0 They ripped Biden a new one.\u00a0 One reason: For not being there.\u00a0 They also went after him because Biden is being positioned as a “centrist,” i.e., not a raging, leftist, socialist lunatic.\u00a0 So they just…<\/p>\n

This is within the context of the California state convention<\/a>, but wait \u2019til it starts happening campaign-wide.\u00a0 Biden has come out of nowhere as the unquestioned frontrunner.\u00a0 He has supplanted and replaced Crazy Bernie.\u00a0 Crazy Bernie\u2019s still trying to figure out what happened.\u00a0 He doesn\u2019t know what happened.\u00a0 He\u2019s running the same campaign as he did.\u00a0 The difference for Crazy Bernie… I mean, there are many things.\u00a0 I think the problem Crazy Bernie has is the Trump economy has improved things for Bernie\u2019s support base, and so Bernie\u2019s promise to give everything away is now seen differently and not as necessary.<\/p>\n

Bernie has not adapted.\u00a0 As far as Bernie is concerned, the country\u2019s still where it was back during the 2016 campaign.\u00a0 Of course, no matter what the Democrats want to say, it\u2019s better. Economically it\u2019s better for a significant number of people, particularly in the parts of the country where it had to be ravaged.\u00a0 Now a lot of Bernie\u2019s people that were in their pajamas and the basements of their parents\u2019 homes are now out working and doing things, and it\u2019s just a different set of circumstances.\u00a0 Bernie has not “adapted.”\u00a0 It\u2019s a key word.<\/p>\n

But “[t]he liberal wing of the Democratic Party launched … attacks against [Joe Bite Me] and his allies over the weekend… Some of the most scathing … admonitions came Sunday from [Crazy Bernie], who repeatedly condemned ‘middle ground\u2019 policy ideas and appeared to criticize Biden for not attending a Democratic gathering” in California.\u00a0 Fauxcahontas “delivered a fierce rebuke of Biden\u2019s professed faith that Republicans will be more cooperative once President Trump is out of office. The crowd showered her with loud cheers” when she ripped Republicans.\u00a0 They don\u2019t want to hear about cooperation with Republicans!<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

They don\u2019t want to hear about crossing the aisle, reaching across, getting along.\u00a0 They don\u2019t want to hear about that.\u00a0 They want Republicans gone!\u00a0 They want Republicans ended.\u00a0 They don\u2019t want any opposition, and here is Elizabeth Warren saying that Biden is trying to forge areas where that kind of existence can take place — and this crowd just savaged Biden.\u00a0 Now, where was Biden when this happened?\u00a0 Do you know where Biden was?\u00a0 Biden was in Iowa.\u00a0 He was not on the couch somewhere, and he was not at a 7-Eleven chewing up, you know, some of the snacks you get there at the cash register.<\/p>\n

He was actually at an LGBTQ event, a human rights event somewhere — a human rights convention, whatever it was.\u00a0 So it is not as though Biden was just wasting his time and didn\u2019t show up.\u00a0 He\u2019s actually cultivating a very premier, left-wing Democrat group by appearing at one of their gatherings.\u00a0 I think this is gonna backfired on them in time.\u00a0 If Biden had been somewhere just taking the weekend off and had chosen not to go to San Francisco… But why didn\u2019t Biden not go to San Francisco?\u00a0 Why didn\u2019t he want to go?\u00a0 Why didn\u2019t he want to go out there? (interruption)<\/p>\n

Well, you can say, “Because he knows they\u2019re nuts,” but let me tell you something.\u00a0 That is the Democrat Party.\u00a0 You can say they\u2019re nuts, but that\u2019s who they are.\u00a0 But then that\u2019s contraindicated by saying, “Here\u2019s Biden leading the Democrat primary by a significant number,” and he is not considered a New Age, current-era socialist like the Democrat Party is being portrayed as.\u00a0 So which is the case?\u00a0 Is it that Biden knows that they are a subset of the party and are wacko, nuts and crazy, and he doesn\u2019t want even get cheers from them for fear of how that will look?<\/p>\n

Or are they the party? Are they the majority of the base and is he in trouble if he gets the nomination, because some of Crazy Bernie\u2019s voters have said that if Crazy Bernie doesn\u2019t get it, they are voting for Trump.\u00a0 We don\u2019t know the answers to any of that, but we\u2019re gonna know in not too long a time because it\u2019s all gonna start shaking out, because the Democrat debates are coming up. It\u2019s almost summertime.\u00a0 Folks, it is June.\u00a0 It is June the 3rd.\u00a0 It\u2019s not officially summer yet, but for all intents and purposes… It\u2019s June.\u00a0 I can\u2019t…<\/p>\n

You know, time is a crazy.\u00a0 Some days it just appears to be dragging and dragging, and one day, you\u2019re in June already?\u00a0 And that means these Democrat debates are gonna be starting soon.\u00a0 Everybody\u2019s in the first one but making the cut after the first one that\u2019s gonna be a big cut in how they\u2019re gonna do it.\u00a0 When those start is when all those delicious fireworks are gonna begin, and we\u2019ll have a better idea what we\u2019re up against.\u00a0 Now, the Breitbart story I referred to, headline: “Biden Present at Russia Collusion Briefing Documented in ‘Odd\u2019 Susan Rice Email.<\/a>”<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>Susan Rice sent a long-after-the-fact email out that attempted to establish a set of norms that would explain why the administration was unmasking a bunch of people like Flynn that were being overheard in wiretaps.\u00a0 She wrote an email that was supposed to be a memo of the time to try to establish it as normal.\u00a0 “Vice President Joe Biden was documented as being present in the Oval Office for a conversation about the [Russia investigation] between President Obama, disgraced ex-FBI chief James Comey, Deputy Attorney General Sally Yates and other senior officials including Obama\u2019s national security advisor Susan Rice.<\/p>\n

“In an action characterized as ‘odd\u2019 last year by then-Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Chuck Grassley, Rice memorialized the [meeting] in an email to herself describing Obama as starting ‘the conversation by stressing his continued commitment to ensuring that every aspect of this issue is handled by the intelligence and law enforcement communities “by the book.”‘”<\/p>\n

She wrote this memo months after this meeting and then postdated it to make it look like she had written the memo\/the letter at the time.\u00a0 So two months after everybody is starting to wonder, “What the hell is this administration doing in this investigation?” Rice writes this memo to make it look like Obama had told all these guys (impression), “Hey, you play this by the book.\u00a0 I don\u2019t want any funny business.\u00a0 I don\u2019t want any violations of the human rights, civil rights, whatever.\u00a0 You do it by the book.”<\/p>\n

Well, it was like writing a memo saying, “We\u2019re not gonna rob the bank and it\u2019s a bad idea,” after you\u2019ve robbed the bank. That is essentially what she did.\u00a0 Grassley, in his letter to her, said, “It strikes us as odd that, among your activities in the final moments on the final day of the Obama administration, you would feel the need to send yourself such an unusual email purporting to document a conversation involving President Obama and his interactions with the FBI regarding the Trump\/Russia investigation.” It was clearly meant to provide cover because it was…<\/p>\n

This was never supposed to happen. Trump was never supposed to win. Hillary was supposed to win. Nobody was supposed to ever know any of this haf happened. So she writes this memo. In the memo she notes that Biden was there. Biden has escaped, up \u2019til now, any ties to this investigation, folks.<\/p>\n

As far as the investigation and the Drive-By Media reporting on it is concerned, he\u2019s clean and pure as the wind-driven snow. He was nowhere near any of it. Have you ever heard Biden\u2019s name associated with it? No. But now people have gone back and looked at her memo. He was in this meeting that she memorialized with Comey — folks, this is the meeting Comey, Clapper, Brennan, they\u2019re discussing how to tell Trump about the golden showers story.<\/p>\n

Let me be clear. It\u2019s this meeting in early January, and it was the next day that Comey and Clapper and Brennan went up to meet Trump at Trump Tower. And then after that meeting, Comey asked to speak to Trump alone, and Clapper and Brennan leave, and Comey tells Trump about the golden showers. And then after the meeting, Comey calls Brennan on the phone, says, “Mission accomplished.”<\/p>\n

\"\"And then Clapper called CNN and reported it, and we are off to the races. Susan Rice\u2019s memo is to say that that meeting went by the book and that Obama was telling everybody don\u2019t play any funny games here, don\u2019t do anything out of bounds or any of that. Because nobody was supposed to know any of this. But the point about it is that Biden was in the meeting.<\/p>\n

Now, in the email, Susan Rice used the “by the book” phraseology a second time. She wrote, “President Obama began the conversation by stressing his continued commitment to ensuring that every aspect of this issue \u2013” the Russian-Trump investigation, \u201c– is handled by the Intelligence and law enforcement communities \u2018by the book\u2019. The president stressed that he is not asking about, initiating or instructing anything from a law enforcement perspective. He reiterated that our law enforcement team needs to proceed as it normally would by the book.\u201d<\/p>\n

After that, she discussed the possibility of issues sharing classified information with the incoming Trump administration, referring to alleged concerns the Trump campaign had been colluding with Russia. That part of her email reads, “The president asked Comey to inform him if anything changes in the next few weeks that should affect how we share classified information with the incoming team.\u201d<\/p>\n

Now, point of this is the detail about Biden being present at the meeting with Rice and Comey is newly relevant because of questions about Biden\u2019s possible role in all of this now. This is all about, \u201cHow much should we share with Trump? How much of what we\u2019re learning about the Russians attempting to affect the election \u2013”folks, none of this was real.<\/p>\n

It was all structured and made up. And her memo after the date that it happened was meant to be a memo written on the day of the event memorializing it so that nobody could claim it was something other than what it was. But the upshot of it is that Biden\u2019s name is in it now, and that\u2019s relevant for whatever might happen investigation-wise with Barr and Durham and with Biden\u2019s presidential campaign, \u2019cause he\u2019s gotten a free ride on all of this stuff by remaining in the background for so much of it.<\/p>\n

But now running for president as is the case with anybody who does, everything that you do — well, not for Democrats, but for the most part everything that you do comes under a microscope.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
