It is amazing to watch this.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-344969\" src=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/APP-041720-Cuomo.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/APP-041720-Cuomo.jpg 640w, https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/APP-041720-Cuomo-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/APP-041720-Cuomo-480x270.jpg 480w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/>I\u2019m asking myself, do they have no common sense? What are they gonna have left if they succeed with this? Governor Cuomo just said the most incredible thing, and I\u2019ll bet you this is gonna be true of Illinois. Governor Cuomo at his briefing just said that the state budget of New York is totally dependent on what the federal government gives them. Stop and think about that. And I\u2019ll bet you who\u2019s gonna be next in line is this guy who &#8212; you know, I get the mayors and the governors in Illinois confused because the mayor of Chicago actually runs that state. J. B. Pritzker, whoever, they\u2019re gonna be next, and both of these states have pension plans that are in big trouble and they\u2019re gonna use federal money to bail that stuff out.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-full wp-image-345179 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/PRITZKER-e1587404392478.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\"><\/p>\n<p>But for Cuomo to come along and say that the state budget of &#8212; and this guy\u2019s gonna run for president? The Democrats think this is their savior nominee? Ho. So he\u2019s sending basically the news that we\u2019re gonna need a bailout after all of this. No wonder he\u2019s being so nice to Trump. No wonder he\u2019s being complimentary of Trump. No wonder Trump\u2019s playing these audio sound bites of Cuomo complimenting him, calling Trump phenomenal. It really irritates the Drive-Bys, by the way.<\/p>\n<p>Folks, I can\u2019t tell you how this depresses me to watch this. I mean, I know that there are people in this country that don\u2019t like it. And I know that there are people in this country who think capitalism is a mistake and so forth, but if these people succeed, there\u2019s not gonna be anything left to govern, which maybe is the objective. Put it back together in their own dream. But we\u2019re heading down a path of utter destruction here, and the evidence continues to mount that it has not been necessary. And that\u2019s what I want to start with today.<\/p>\n<p>How many of you have some of the news about testicles may make men more vulnerable to coronavirus. Have you seen that story? (interruption) Testicles. The coronavirus could linger in the testicles, making men prone to longer, more severe cases of the illness, according to a new study.<\/p>\n<p>Okay. So we have all of these studies on chloroquine, can\u2019t pay any attention to those, we don\u2019t have enough anecdotal evidence. We can\u2019t rely on that study. We can\u2019t rely on \u2019em. Somebody comes along and says it may linger in testicles and man, it makes big news. If I were the Democrats I\u2019d kind of be happy. The Democrat men, all of their testicles are in lockboxes. So they may not even have a problem with this.<\/p>\n<p>It may just be Republican men and their testicles who suffer. &#8216;Cause Democrat men gave theirs up I can\u2019t tell you how long ago. Just watch any Drive-By Media newscast and you can see testicle-less men all over the place, they\u2019re all over the Democrat Party. And because they put their testicles in lockboxes back during the Hillary era, they may be inadvertently be protected here.<\/p>\n<p>The obligatory Dr. Fauci headlines. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.mediaite.com\/news\/dr-fauci-condemns-protesters-clamoring-for-end-to-lockdown-premature-reopening-will-backfire\/\">&#8220;Dr. Fauci Condemns Protesters Clamoring for End to Lockdown: Premature Reopening Will &#8216;Backfire,'&#8221;<\/a> says Dr. Fauci. But then Dr. Birx praised what\u2019s about to go in Florida.<\/p>\n<p>Grab sound bite nobody 24. This happened at the briefing yesterday at the White House. A reporter said to the Scarf Queen, &#8220;You again praise the American people for doing their bit over the past few weeks. What goes through your mind when you see photographs of crowded beaches in Florida? Is that of concern for when we start seeing some of these restrictions being lifted?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>BIRX: We go metro by metro, county by county. And so I\u2019d have to link that with a specific county and look at their case rates. I believe the governor and the public health system that Florida has, they have some of the best county public health individuals I have ever had to deal with. They are amazing, because I had to work with them under HIV\/AIDS.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-344872\" src=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/APP-041720-COVID-WH-09.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/APP-041720-COVID-WH-09.jpg 640w, https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/APP-041720-COVID-WH-09-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/APP-041720-COVID-WH-09-480x270.jpg 480w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>RUSH: So she\u2019s praising, hey, if they\u2019re opening the beaches in Florida, I gotta trust the health people there, totally knocking the media guy down a peg or two. Now, you could also say that Dr. Birx, she\u2019s not gonna run down any medical or health expert no matter where they are. Even if they\u2019re in Tanzania, she\u2019s not gonna run \u2019em down. She\u2019s gonna stay loyal to the industry, to the business of health expertise. But it sounds to me like she knows some of these things personally. It totally messed everybody up. They thought Dr. Birx was going to savage the mayor of Jacksonville. And they thought the Scarf Queen was gonna savage the governor, Ron DeSantis, and she didn\u2019t.<\/p>\n<p>Speaking of media &#8212; which, as you know, they aren\u2019t media, and here\u2019s another bit of evidence. The Miami Herald, the newspaper, has a &#8220;metro columnist,&#8221; meaning she writes columns on the local scene in the Miami Herald. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/news\/miami-herald-columnist-says-reopening-florida-beaches-will-work-nicely-to-thin-the-ranks-of-trump-supporters\">Her name is Fabiola Santiago. She tweeted yesterday that Florida residents<\/a> on &#8220;packed beaches should work nicely to thin the ranks of&#8221; supporters of Trump and DeSantis.<\/p>\n<p>She\u2019s hoping that crowded beaches lead to more people getting COVID-19 and dying, and she\u2019s assuming most of the people going to the beaches are gonna be Trump supporters and DeSantis supporters. So let\u2019s just hope they spread the disease and die! That\u2019s one&#8230; (interruption) &#8220;Was she fired?&#8221; (laughing) I don\u2019t even think she\u2019s reprimanded. &#8220;Santiago tweeted that &#8216;packed beaches should work nicely to thin the ranks of Trump\/DeSantis&#8230; supporters in #Florida who value money over health.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-295140\" src=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/12\/APP-040918-Americas-Anchorman-ADJUSTED.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/12\/APP-040918-Americas-Anchorman-ADJUSTED.jpg 640w, https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/12\/APP-040918-Americas-Anchorman-ADJUSTED-300x169.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/>Somebody pointed out that Fabiola Santiago had nothing to say about the decision by three Democrat governors &#8212; Murphy, New Jersey; Cuomo, New York; Lamont, Connecticut &#8212; to reopen marinas and boatyards under social distancing rules. On Friday they said&#8230; (interruption) No, the story here has no reporting on what reaction the paper, her employer, had to this. Nothing\u2019s gonna happen to her. They might go public that she\u2019s been reprimanded and has to do 10 minutes of community service or some such thing.<\/p>\n<p>She may have to go to the beach and stand next to a Trump supporter. Who knows? But this is who they are. See, she will never be called a hatemonger. She will never, ever be thought of as anything as other than compassionate and thoughtful and caring because she\u2019s a liberal Democrat and a member of the media. This is just unadulterated hate. Now, she might say, &#8220;I\u2019m just joking.&#8221; Yeah, well, we don\u2019t get to joke about things like this.<\/p>\n<p>We don\u2019t get to joke about you people dying. If that happens, they come after us. So I just hope beyond hope that massive numbers of Americans are seeing this, because they\u2019ve got nothing to do but spend time watching the news and the media looking for the latest updates. I hope that there are gazillions of people finally seeing some of this, some of these examples.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>RUSH: I swear, I don&#039;t know how much more I can take of a political party and its governors actually attempting to extend this damage, to prolong the harm that is occurring to average, ordinary people.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":49,"featured_media":295140,"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 -
