<\/p>\nRUSH: This guy, you know, he\u2019s a joke. He\u2019s a charlatan. He\u2019s been sending out phony data as part of his models, and that data has been used by American health experts and officials to dictate American behavior.<\/p>\n
Now, we\u2019re learning a lot more about this guy as the days go on. “The scientist whose advice prompted Boris Johnson to lock down Britain resigned from his Government advisory position on Tuesday night as The Telegraph can reveal he broke social distancing rules to meet his married lover.”<\/p>\n
The guy was having an affair! And he broke his own social distancing rules to get together with the paramour. “Professor Neil Ferguson allowed the woman to visit him at home during the lockdown while lecturing the public on the need for strict social distancing in order to reduce the spread of coronavirus.”<\/p>\n
Now, this woman lives with her husband and their children in another house, and because they\u2019re uber-leftists they have an open marriage. “On at least two occasions, Antonia Staats –” hat\u2019s her name, S-t-a-a-t. And wait \u2019til you hear what this woman does. Maybe it\u2019s Antonia. I don\u2019t know. “Antonia Staats, 38, travelled across London from her home in the south of the capital to spend time with the government scientist nicknamed Professor Lockdown.”<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
That\u2019s his nickname over there. “The 51-year-old had only just finished a two-week spell self-isolating after he tested positive for the virus. Professor Ferguson told the Telegraph, ‘I accept I made an error of judgement and took the wrong course of action. I have therefore stepped back from my involvement in SAGE.'” SAGE, by the way, is an acronym. It stands for the Scientific Advisory Group for Emergencies.<\/p>\n
The first of the paramour\u2019s visits to this clown\u2019s house in violation of social distancing was Monday, March 30th. It coincided with a public warning by Professor Ferguson that the one-week-old lockdown measures would have to remain in place until June, but not for him, see. Oh, no. Not for him. Not for his paramour. No, no, no. That\u2019s for everybody else.<\/p>\n
Now, this babe, this Antonia Staats, S-t-a-a-t-s, it\u2019s just a little added item of interest. The media, obviously, everybody focused on the hypocrisy and the titillating sex. This guy breaking his quarantine and so forth. She works, this paramour of his, works for a left-wing, an uber-left-wing group called AVAAZ, A-V-A-A-Z. I had never heard of them. I had to go out there and had to look \u2019em up. You know what their number one issue is? Climate change.<\/p>\n
My point is that this clown is not a scientist. He\u2019s a left-wing activist who has phony computer model data that he doesn\u2019t even believe in himself. He puts it out and American health experts bought into it hook, line, and sinker. They used it to set original data and behavioral practices and restrictions on the American people. This guy is out advocating social distancing while not practicing it himself.<\/p>\n
He\u2019s nothing but what everybody else in this story is, an uber-left-wing activist disguised as a scientist or disguised as a journalist or disguised as a governor or disguised at whatever other attempt they are using to hide from you who they really are. And they are unified in their objective, and that objective is the destruction of capitalism and free markets. And the keyword being “free,” as in freedom.<\/p>\n
These are people that believe you can never let a good crisis go to waste. And this one, I\u2019m telling you, folks, that everybody you think is a hero because of the media, every blue state governor, every blue state politician, every so called great journalist or whatever, every one of these leftists advocating for lockdown continuing, advocating for the shutdown continuing, these are people who think this is the greatest opportunity they have had drop into their laps.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n
Look at what they think they\u2019re gonna be able to show after this. Let me just run through some of the things. We had a lockdown. We had massive government spending. Six trillion, no end in sight. We are what? We are keeping people fed while they are not working. Government can do this, you see. We don\u2019t need capitalism. We don\u2019t need people in cutthroat competition destroying themselves and hurting other people\u2019s feelings. Government can do this. Government can take care of people. Government can eliminate suffering. Government can make sure you don\u2019t get sick. Government can handle all of this. You don\u2019t have to go out and work. You don\u2019t have to suffer.<\/p>\n
And then the climate change crowd, they\u2019re out there saying, “Look at what\u2019s happening. We\u2019ve got a good test going here, gang, we\u2019re getting rid of fossil fuels \u2019cause nobody\u2019s driving and nobody\u2019s flying, and look at the pollution that we\u2019re cleaning up.” So folks, left-wing activists who literally want to transform this country into their socialist utopia are reveling in this opportunity.<\/p>\n
This is the greatest opportunity they\u2019ve had just thrown right in their lap, if it was. “What do you mean by that, thrown in their lap?” There were some things behind this that were pushing us in this direction. We\u2019ve never shut down the U.S. economy like this for any reason. We\u2019ve never done what we did here. And now that it\u2019s shut down, can you remember either in history or in your lifetime, can you remember as many advocates for remaining shut down, for remaining in lockdown, for continuing the destruction of the American economy?<\/p>\n
Can you remember ever in your lifetime as many people as there are today advocating just that? Because that\u2019s what they\u2019re advocating. You might think they\u2019re advocating public safety and that they\u2019re advocating you not getting sick. That\u2019s not what they\u2019re advocating. They are advocating the ongoing shutdown of the United States and the destruction of the world\u2019s greatest and most prolific and powerful economy.<\/p>\n
“Why would they want to do this, Rush?” Because they\u2019re not capitalists. Because they think the United States is the destabilizing agent in the world. The United States is standing in the way of the shared dreams they have of a giant globalist community where there are no nations and there are no borders. There are people who believe in this.<\/p>\n

Madeleine Albright teaches it. Madeleine Albright, the former secretary of state for William Jefferson Clinton now teaches at Georgetown University. She teaches young skulls full of mush that come into her class, nothing special about America, America was an accident of the calendar. America was just a happenstance. All these particularly brilliant people from the U.K. — sorry, Great Britain — ended up the United States at a point in time where they wanted to do something new. But there\u2019s nothing exceptional. There\u2019s nothing special. There\u2019s nothing that sets the United States apart. She\u2019s teaching this.<\/p>\n
There are more people in this country who think that than you would ever believe, than you want to believe. And they are in the media, and they are in elective office. They are Democrats. They are leftists. And they are hell-bent on taking this opportunity and maximizing it as best they can. It makes no common sense to want to continue to advocate turning this country into a ghost country. It makes no common sense to take action, to want to take action that will essentially destroy and wipe out the United States economy.<\/p>\n
Who in the world do these people think they are? Who in the world wants to do this? And yet they\u2019re there, and they are doing it, and they\u2019re telling you each and every day by virtue of the policies they are advocating.<\/p>\n
BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n
RUSH: Don\u2019t doubt me, folks. “A host of celebrities and scientists including Madonna, Robert De Niro,” a bunch of stars are demanding that the world not go back to normal, that we transform away from a consumerist economy “to help save the planet.”<\/p>\n
BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n
RUSH: I\u2019m telling you, it is a frightening moment in America. You know what? I\u2019m talking to more people…<\/p>\n
I\u2019m just gonna tell you. I wish I could mention names, but I\u2019ve all promised these people I would not. I\u2019ve never encountered the fatalism that I\u2019m encountering in the past three weeks over the future of the country, over the future of individual liberty and freedom. I\u2019m encountering fatalism like I\u2019ve never encountered it.<\/p>\n
Meaning I\u2019m encountering people who are scared to death that it\u2019s over, scared to death that the forces arrayed against freedom are gonna prevail here and that they\u2019re going to do it by virtue of this shutdown and ongoing advocacy of the lockdown of the U.S. economy.<\/p>\n
It is how. The fear is that this is how people are going to be not conditioned; they\u2019re gonna be bludgeoned into accepting this new way of life because they\u2019re gonna be powerless. They won\u2019t have a job to go to. They won\u2019t have a career available to them. Now, I\u2019m not there yet. I\u2019m not on this fatalist…<\/p>\n
I wouldn\u2019t call it a bandwagon. It\u2019s not actually a movement. I\u2019m just… It\u2019s not a lot of people. I don\u2019t talk to a lot of people. I have a PhD in social distancing from, like, 30 years ago. I have a master\u2019s in hermit. I got that about 40 years ago. So I don\u2019t talk to a lot of people. But I\u2019m talking to people who have never been this scared before.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n
And there are people they are afraid of that they\u2019re naming to me, who they see as having a very powerful and direct role in shaping what life is gonna be post-pandemic. Look, the reason for the fatalism is all economic. If you take away from people their ability to be self-sufficient and self-reliant, and if you convert everybody — or the vast majority of people — to dependence, then you own them.<\/p>\n
That\u2019s where the fatalism and the fear lies, the fear that the advocates of shutdown are gonna prevail and that everybody is gonna end up being dependent on government or somebody\/something, because there aren\u2019t gonna be jobs to go to. There aren\u2019t gonna be places to go. There aren\u2019t gonna be airplanes to get on.<\/p>\n
And that\u2019s why… You know, normally I wouldn\u2019t tell you what a bunch of Hollywood actors and actresses think. But just in order to of impress upon you not to doubt me here about people willing to use this pandemic to forever alter the American way of life. And many of the people advocating for this are some of the people who have benefited the host from the American way of life.<\/p>\n
Logically, there\u2019s no reason why they would want to tear it down. It made them. It bestowed upon them riches they never dreamed of. It gave them power and advocacy like they have never, ever dreamed of, and they want to tear it down. It makes no sense.<\/p>\n
