This is Tim. You\u2019re up first today with us. And it\u2019s great to have you, sir. Hello.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: Yes. Rush, Schiff accidentally out Ciaramella as the whistleblower yesterday. His staff left it in the William Taylor transcript, and it\u2019s posted all over the mainstream media. Schiff posted it on the House website, realized that he screwed up yesterday, and pulled it down last night. But it\u2019s still all over NBC, CNN &#8212;<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-327926\" src=\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/SchiffTranscript.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/SchiffTranscript.png 640w, https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/SchiffTranscript-300x169.png 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Wait. Wait. Now, I knew this. I knew that Schiff\u2019s staff failed to redact Ciaramella\u2019s name in one of the transcripts they released with the testimony of Bill Taylor. I had not heard they pulled it down. Last I heard was they hadn\u2019t changed it, it was still up there. He pulled it down last night?<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: He pulled it down off the House website last night. I\u2019m not sure exactly what time. But it\u2019s still up on all the mainstream media websites, the PDF, during Mark Meadows\u2019 questioning. It\u2019s still there. They all outed it. Nobody should be hiding this name anymore. They all outed him, every single one of them.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Now, when I first heard about this, and this is hours old, this is earlier this morning when I was smack-dab in the middle of show prep. The last I heard on this until your call was that the staff had outed the name and had not redacted it and still it was there. So people were speculating maybe he\u2019s not the whistleblower if Schiff didn\u2019t pull the name down. But you\u2019re saying he\u2019s pulled it down?<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: Last night when this first broke, yes, they absolutely 100 percent pulled it off the House website.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: All right. So what is your take? What\u2019s your interpretation of this?<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: They screwed up, like, they are so arrogant, rushed to put the transcript out there, and they just flat-out made a mistake. If they didn\u2019t make a mistake, why pull the transcript off the House website?<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: It\u2019s a sign. I hate to keep bringing it back to things I said \u2019cause I really don\u2019t like making the program about me, but, folks, there\u2019s a pattern here. When the Democrats have the cloak of secrecy, when nobody but them knows what\u2019s going on, like the Mueller report, there weren\u2019t any leaks from the Mueller report. So everybody was allowed to build up expectations. &#8220;Mueller\u2019s got the goods. Trump\u2019s gone. He\u2019s gonna prove that Trump colluded and Trump stole the election.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Of course, the report comes out, and it was dead, it was a dud. So then they immediately moved over to obstruction. And they couldn\u2019t get anything on that. So then they brought Mueller out in public. They just couldn\u2019t accept that Mueller found nothing. When it turned public, it was a disaster.<\/p>\n<p>Mueller was a doddering old man who didn\u2019t know what was in his own report. Because he didn\u2019t write it. A guy named Andrew Weissmann and the rest of the staff wrote it. Mueller was a figurehead from the get-go to give it credibility and an unassailable reputation and all of that.<\/p>\n<p>But the point is when they went public, it was a disaster. And that\u2019s the trend. Now, Schiff is getting ready to go public now, and all of this is starting to implode. So what Schiff\u2019s doing? Well, they got the whistleblower\u2019s name out &#8212; uh-oh. And now we are learning that Schiff is not even gonna use the whistleblower, not even gonna use Vindman because quid pro quo may not have any teeth. So now they\u2019re gonna go to bribery. It\u2019s an exact replay of what happened with the Mueller investigation and report. And their problem is they don\u2019t have anything.<\/p>\n<p>They are lying. They are manufacturing an ongoing illusion. And they add to the illusion at every step or phase of this with a new allegation. Like the phone call just happens to fall into their lap, oh, we\u2019re gonna impeach someone with a phone call. That\u2019s because collusion with Russia bombed out. This is gonna implode on them. It is starting to. May even be ahead of the game on that. Tim, thanks for the call.<\/p>\n<p>BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Here is the transcript that Schiff released that identified the name of the whistleblower. Actually, Schiff didn\u2019t do it. It came in the form of a question from one of the Republicans, and I don\u2019t know who the Republican was. I think the witness here is Bill Taylor, but I\u2019m not even sure of that. But this has since been taken down. &#8220;Question: Okay. Does a person by the name of Eric Ciaramella ring a bell for you? Answer: It doesn\u2019t. Question: So to your knowledge, you never had any communications with somebody by that name? Answer: Correct.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>I think it was Taylor, and I think it\u2019s Mark Meadows asking, but I\u2019m not sure. Anyway, Schiff didn\u2019t release it or ask it. It was a Republican questioning Taylor, and that was part of the transcript. His name, Eric Ciaramella, was released by Schiff. Now this is no longer there. It\u2019s been pulled down.<\/p>\n<p>BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Bradenton, Florida. Jane, welcome to the EIB Network. Hello.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: Hi. What an honor to speak to you.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Great to have you here with us.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: Thank you. My question is, is there any accountability? From the beginning, the whistleblower, there were representations that were made to the IG that allowed everything to go forward, and it just&#8230; Everything is so turned around now. Is there any accountability?<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: You mean is the whistleblower gonna get in trouble for doing anything the way he\u2019s done it?<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: Exactly.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: No.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: (groans)<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-324057\" src=\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/APP-100219-Schiff-eyes.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/APP-100219-Schiff-eyes.jpg 640w, https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/APP-100219-Schiff-eyes-300x169.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>RUSH: This is a Democrat-media run operation. The whistleblower was told things that he did not hear &#8212; by Vindman, we think, but we\u2019re not sure about that, either. The whistleblower then called Adam Schiff. Right there\u2019s the violation. The whistleblower, if he\u2019s really blowing a whistle, has to go to the inspector general. She didn\u2019t do that. He went to Schiff. Schiff then examined &#8212; and Schiff knew this was coming. It\u2019s all a setup. Every bit of this is a setup, and now that that\u2019s been learned&#8230; Remember, the key to this, Jane, is that Trump released the transcript.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: You\u2019re right.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: That is what blew this up. This was gonna be something entirely different if Trump had not released transcript. They were gonna be able to say that it was whatever it was, characterize it however they wanted to characterize it. They wanted to be able to say that Trump was obstructing; he was covering up. He releases the transcript. That made the whistleblower irrelevant because the whistleblower never heard the call. All he had was secondhand knowledge.<\/p>\n<p>The transcript of the phone call is the transcript of the phone call. It\u2019s everything in it. It doesn\u2019t matter what anybody says about it, and all anybody was saying about it was their opinion. So now it\u2019s gone. So your question is, &#8220;Will the whistleblower ever be held accountable for participating in an obvious political scam?&#8221; I don\u2019t know. But all I can tell you is, how many Democrats get in trouble for doing stuff like this? Nobody\u2019s gotten in trouble yet for the entire Russian collusion hoax, and we hope that happens at some point down the line.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>RUSH: Here is the transcript that Schiff released that identified the name of the whistleblower.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":49,"featured_media":324057,"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 -
