I really think that we lost this culture and political battle to the teachers, teachers union, education. I know the media\u2019s a major factor as well. But there are far more people, kids, human beings in mandatory classrooms starting in grade school and then middle school and high school and college than watch the media every day. I mean, schools have become, the education system, the public schools have become the propagandization and indoctrination center for the American people.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-291542\" src=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/APP-110818-Rush-College-School.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/APP-110818-Rush-College-School.jpg 640w, https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/APP-110818-Rush-College-School-300x169.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/>We have two generations of this. It\u2019s why we\u2019ve lost so much of our country. It\u2019s why you have so many educated, quote, unquote, people that have no idea what the founding of this country is. They\u2019ve been taught that the country is villainous, racist, sexist, bigoted, homophobic, we don\u2019t deserve any of our power, we don\u2019t deserve any of the status as a superpower, and I believe it\u2019s education where we\u2019ve lost. I know it is.<\/p>\n<p>And we weren\u2019t on the field. We weren\u2019t on the field in Hollywood, obviously, pop culture. All of these areas that we ended up losing this public battle for the mind and heart of the average American and the ability for the average American to have great pride and understanding of the country and how it came be to be, how unique, how special, how blessed it is. They haven\u2019t been taught for two generations, figure 40 years, unless they have been homeschooled or gone to certain private schools.<\/p>\n<p>And the Democrats have owned it. The American left has owned it. And I\u2019ll tell you when it began. It began with the multiculturalism curriculum. That\u2019s where it began, the tear-down of the distinct and unique American culture that was the envy of the world, that everybody in the world wanted to live in and be part of. The multicultural curriculum is where the tear-down of America began. And it continues to this day.<\/p>\n<p>Now, there is, because of all this, there is a potential bright side, ladies and gentlemen. If the Democrats are gonna keep the schools closed, and if they succeed in keeping the schools closed because of the virus or what have you, they are willingly not taking advantage of the opportunity to continue the indoctrination and the propagandization of these kids. They\u2019re gonna have to be taught somewhere. There will be an increase in homeschooling. So there is that possibility.<\/p>\n<p>And look, if you\u2019re saying, &#8220;Rush, if you think education has caused this much trouble, why are you so insistent that schools be opened?&#8221; I hear you. I know. It does appear to be a contradiction. And that is an illustration of how easy it has been for the left to take over public education and turn it into this wildly destructive institution.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-270031\" src=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/04\/APP-Public-Schools.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/04\/APP-Public-Schools.jpg 640w, https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/04\/APP-Public-Schools-300x169.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/>Because every parent wants their kid to get the best education possible. And that means getting up every day and going to the finest, best school the parents can either afford or move into the neighborhood of or what have you. Even if what\u2019s taught in these classrooms is tear-down destructive, doesn\u2019t matter, the lure of an education and the need for a good one in order to give a person the best shot at success in life is an overwhelming, overpowering desire and motivation and something that responsible parents consider one of their primary responsibilities.<\/p>\n<p>Even if they know that their kids are being indoctrinated and propagandized, they still want them there. So in one sense it might be good that schools don\u2019t open because it could give us an opportunity to stop temporarily, for however long, the left\u2019s exclusive clutches over kids.<\/p>\n<p>But the president\u2019s out there demanding that the schools open. And for the sake of the economy, for the sake of the divorce rate, for the sake of sanity among parents, they need to open. And for the sake of the children not starving, the schools need to open. It\u2019s a fascinating thing to watch here as it plays out.<\/p>\n<p>BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: What else do I have next on this? Dah, dah, dah&#8230; (sigh) I don\u2019t know.<\/p>\n<p>This effort to keep the schools closed is just&#8230; How long is it gonna take &#8212; and maybe it\u2019s happened. How long is it going to take for the American public to realize how destructive the Democrat Party is? It\u2019s not&#8230; You know, you wouldn\u2019t have to say the American left. We don\u2019t have to say the radical Marxists. This is the Democrat Party.<\/p>\n<p>The Democrat Party has become the home of all this radical leftism. The Democrat Party is trying to destroy the U.S. economy. The Democrat Party is trying to screw up the school system. They don\u2019t want professional sports to open up and play. They\u2019re doing everything they can to literally destroy any opportunity for economic stability and growth in this country.<\/p>\n<p>Folks, there\u2019s so little pushback against it, I\u2019m scared. Where is the opposition to this? Is there any anymore, or is everybody just streaming video and tuning out, trying to find the latest horror flick on Netflix? Which, by the way, is Dark. If you\u2019re looking for the latest horror flick on Netflix, it\u2019s Dark. That\u2019s the title of it: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=cq2iTHoLrt0\" data-rel=\"lightbox-video-0\">Dark. Three seasons.<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Supposedly if you watch it, you\u2019ll never be able to have a night without nightmares again. That\u2019s the way they\u2019re promoting it. Is everybody just watching Netflix and thinking, &#8220;Eh, it\u2019s the best we can do&#8221;? It\u2019s only a matter of time and we\u2019ll find out. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nationalreview.com\/2020\/07\/destroy-public-education-system\/\">David Harsanyi, National Review has a piece, National Review Online: &#8220;Destroy the &#8216;Public\u2019 Education System.&#8221;<\/a><\/p>\n<p>That is his title.<\/p>\n<p>That\u2019s the objective.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Destroy the &#8216;Public\u2019 Education System.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.nationalreview.com\/2020\/07\/destroy-public-education-system\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-355035 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/APP-Tear-NATIONAL-REVIEW-nat-rev-070820.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/APP-Tear-NATIONAL-REVIEW-nat-rev-070820.jpg 640w, https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/APP-Tear-NATIONAL-REVIEW-nat-rev-070820-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/APP-Tear-NATIONAL-REVIEW-nat-rev-070820-480x270.jpg 480w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/a>He says, &#8220;It\u2019s largely a left-wing propaganda machine that funds Democratic politicians and entrenches racial segregation. &#8216;Public\u2019 schools have been a catastrophe for the United States. This certainly isn\u2019t an original assertion, but as we watch thousands of authoritarian brats tearing down the legacies of George Washington and Abraham Lincoln, it\u2019s more apparent than ever.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;State-run schools have undercut two fundamental conditions of a healthy tolerant society. First, they\u2019ve created millions of civic illiterates who are disconnected from long-held communal values and national identity. Second, they\u2019ve exacerbated the very inequalities that trigger the tearing apart of&#8221; our culture.<\/p>\n<p>BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Let me repeat this assertion from David Harsanyi. Again, the piece is at National Review Online. The title, the premise is, &#8220;Destroy the &#8216;Public\u2019 Education System.&#8221; It\u2019s an advocacy piece for doing that. &#8220;State-run schools have undercut two fundamental conditions of a healthy tolerant society. First, they\u2019ve created millions of civic illiterates who are disconnected from long-held communal values and national identity.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Bingo. Civic illiterates means that they\u2019ve not been taught the founding. They\u2019ve not been taught the greatness of the Founding Fathers. They\u2019ve not been taught a single thing about the truth of the founding and the existence, the greatness, the decency of the United States of America. They are illiterate on it. Yet they think they\u2019ve been told the truth. They have been taught that America\u2019s the home of racism, that it was founded in slavery and racism and bigotry, that it is the home of white supremacy and that it must be torn down.<\/p>\n<p>That\u2019s what they\u2019ve been taught. It\u2019s illiteracy. They\u2019ve been taught it, and now they\u2019re out there as they\u2019ve grown up and become adults, programmed almost like Stepford kids to act on it. Genuine mind-numbed robots who think that they are supremely educated.<\/p>\n<p>So &#8220;they\u2019ve created millions of civic illiterates who are disconnected from long-held communal values and national identity. Second, they\u2019ve exacerbated the very inequalities that trigger the tearing apart of,&#8221; a culture. They\u2019ve exacerbated the very inequalities, rather than be taught. As I said yesterday, you know what the <a href=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/daily\/2020\/07\/06\/scotus-electoral-college-voters-must-stay-faithful-to-state\/\">greatest assault on slavery in the world has been? The United States Constitution.<\/a> &#8220;What do you mean, Rush? The Constitution was written when there was slavery.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-326624\" src=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/APP-102519-Rush-Constitution.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/APP-102519-Rush-Constitution.jpg 640w, https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/APP-102519-Rush-Constitution-300x169.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/>The Constitution provided the road map for getting rid of it. Very simple. It establishes the premise that the individual citizen has primacy over the government and that everybody\u2019s equal, everybody is equal. The United States, as long as there was slavery, was not meeting its promise. The Constitution provided the route to ending slavery at the same time the opportunity to be true and devoted to the Constitution. Had the Constitution not been written, did it not stand for what it stands for, there would not have been a legal premise for ending slavery and a legal premise for the Civil War and so forth.<\/p>\n<p>Now, I realize this assertion is just gonna enrage people who have been taught that the Constitution enshrined slavery, Constitution enshrines white supremacy. Nothing could be further from the truth. And we\u2019re 50 years behind now, two generations, in having this message, having this something be taught.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;If you\u2019re interested in ferreting out &#8216;systemic racism,\u2019 go to a big-city public-school system. No institution has fought harder to preserve segregated communities than the average teachers\u2019 union. And I don\u2019t mean only in the schools.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Systemic racism, that\u2019s what they want you to believe the United States is. It was founded with slavery, systemic racism. Systemic racism is found in any institution, including a big city public school system where segregation is sought, where it is achieved, where it is maintained. And segregation is the order of the day now, by orders of the radical left.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Prosperous Americans already enjoy school choice &#8211;&#8221; If you\u2019re doing okay financially, you have access to school choice, &#8220;and not merely because they can afford private schools. Anyone who has ever tried to buy a suburban home in a major metro area can tell you how acutely school districts influence home prices. Many middle-class and working-class families are priced out of areas with good schools because of inflated home values and high property taxes.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>And you think that\u2019s an accident? It isn\u2019t. It\u2019s a way to keep certain people out. It\u2019s a way to further segregation by making really attractive, decent places unaffordable for the people you don\u2019t want living nearby. And who\u2019s doing this? White liberals with their plantation mentality. &#8220;And families who might otherwise choose to live in more diverse areas are kept out because of failing schools.&#8221; And a failing school, by the way, is you can\u2019t change it.<\/p>\n<p>A failing school is itself a weapon. A failing school is itself useful to the segregationists. It provides the only option for many Americans who are being artificially priced out of neighborhoods and schools they would prefer to send their kids to. &#8220;Even in cities where limited choice exists, most poor parents, typically black or Hispanic, are compelled to send their kids to inferior schools.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>And if you\u2019re gonna be compelled to send your kid to an inferior school, there better be an inferior school around. They have to keep up these inferior schools. They have to prop \u2019em up so as to send people somewhere. If you\u2019re not gonna let them move where they want to move, if you\u2019re not gonna let \u2019em live where they want to live, if you\u2019re not gonna let \u2019em go to the school they want to go to, you gotta have someplace for \u2019em to go.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-291685\" src=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/APP-110918-Teacher-School-Liberalism.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/APP-110918-Teacher-School-Liberalism.jpg 640w, https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/APP-110918-Teacher-School-Liberalism-300x169.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/>&#8220;More than a decade ago -&#8221; this is Mr. Harsanyi writing here. &#8220;More than a decade ago, I sat in a Denver auditorium with a single Hispanic mom who was, quite literally, praying that her kid\u2019s number would be picked in a charter-school lottery. The mother wept as her number was passed over, not because she was a partisan reactionary &#8212; she didn\u2019t care about politics &#8212; but because she knew her son would now be forced to attend a subpar and unsafe high school rather than one specifically designed to help first-generation kids assimilate.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>You know who loves charter schools? You know who loves school choice? It\u2019s African-Americans and other minorities. And guess who opposes all of that? You\u2019re damn right, their political party, the Democrat Party, the party looking out for \u2019em. The party\u2019s gonna protect \u2019em against all these evil white devils practicing racial primacy, systemic racism, and all this stuff.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s the Democrat Party that is denying upward mobility opportunity in everything, including education. Harsanyi writes, &#8220;It was a heartbreaking scene. And it\u2019s only gotten worse. Colorado has since become a blue state, and Democrats have killed or obstructed numerous school-choice initiatives once supported by moderates in their party. In Denver, schools systems have helped solidify segregated communities, and the achievement gap between white and minority students is one of the worst in the country,&#8221; under Democrat control.<\/p>\n<p>Segregation\u2019s been maintained, performance among poor minorities is getting worse because they are going to inferior schools, which are being kept open on purpose. It is a crying shame. This where I believe &#8212; if you want to talk about losing the country &#8212; and it\u2019s not final yet, of course, but this is where we\u2019ve lost so much ground is in the education system.<\/p>\n<p>A lot of people, &#8220;Nah, it\u2019s the media, Rush. If we had control of the media, we could fix it.&#8221; The media is a crucial element of it, too, I know, but education largely dominates.<\/p>\n<p>BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: I\u2019ll tell you something, folks. The truth of the matter is that the embedded nature of the left-wing Democrat Party in big school districts is now so normalized that parents don\u2019t even say a word about it. When their kids are adversely affected by it. When their kids come home and tell \u2019em, &#8220;Hey, Mom, I didn\u2019t have to take the test today because teachers gave us the answers to the test.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>When the teachers are taking history class and turning it into an anti-Republican hour, an anti-Trump or anti-George W. Bush hour, and then it\u2019s a history class so the students are given the answers to a history class that\u2019s never taught, the kids come home and tell the parents, the parents don\u2019t say a word about it \u2019cause they\u2019re afraid if they go to the school and complain that it\u2019s gonna be taken out on their kids in bad grades, and so it just happens. The embedded liberal nature of big school districts is so normalized now, people so expect it that parents don\u2019t say a word about it.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-298257\" src=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/APP-013119-School-Bus-2.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/APP-013119-School-Bus-2.jpg 640w, https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/APP-013119-School-Bus-2-300x169.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/>Look at it this way. A lot of people, a lot of parents can buy virtually anything from anywhere in the world because of worldwide economics, but they cannot use their own tax dollars to buy their kids an education that they want, an education that aligns with their values. It\u2019s a crapshoot. The one thing they ought to be able to buy with their tax dollars is the kind of education their kids get, and they can\u2019t do it. And they now just have come to accept it.<\/p>\n<p>So they look for alternatives. Rather than reforming the public school system, they look for alternatives &#8212; charter schools, private schools, taking out big-time loans to afford all of that, moving, whatever. Did you see a recent study found that 60% of Americans could not pass the U.S. citizenship test? Sixty percent, folks! Do you know how easy the citizenship test is? It\u2019s one of the easiest tests anybody could ever take. Sixty percent of people born in this country could not pass it.<\/p>\n<p>People 65 or older scored best, 74% correctly answering at least six out of the 10 questions in this test. Of those 45 and younger, only 19% passed. And the younger the test takers, the less likely they were to pass. Sixty percent of the people that took the basic citizenship test didn\u2019t know which countries their grandparents fought in World War II. Only 24% knew why American colonists had fought the British. I mean, folks, it\u2019s scary.<\/p>\n<p>Here we go, Olivia in Charleston, South Carolina, great to have you on the EIB Network.

I\u2019ll finish in December, and this class is &#8212;<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Wait a minute. So you have to take this diversity class to know how to teach women and then how to teach men and then how to teach drunks and then how to teach sober people, how to teach Hispanics, how to each African-Americans. Is that what you mean?<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: Well, the diversity class goes over white privilege. I just finished my white privilege model.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Oh, for crying out loud. Oh, for crying out loud.

I\u2019ve got a story in the Stack today. Black Lives Matter leadership person, somebody in the upper echelon says that the white race is &#8211; I gotta find it here.

And I went through and went through publication after publication about how, you know, science has proven that there\u2019s not a significant genetic difference to say that there are all of these different races. And, you know, I went through and I pulled all the melanin science &#8212;<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Of course there isn\u2019t, but you\u2019re not gonna get your master\u2019s if you run around saying that.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: Well, no. However, I feel like there are &#8212; I mean, as a public school teacher I know that we are out there, we want to teach our children truth, and we want to teach them to be American citizens and to love their country. We\u2019re a small number, and so I decided that this was gonna be something I was gonna confidently stand up against her. I was not gonna apologize for being white. I was not gonna apologize for being born with two parents. And because I don\u2019t expect that of my children &#8212;<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: You know, everybody is.

They\u2019re pushing the hate-America, hate-Trump agenda. It all starts with the schools. Every single bit of this starts with the schools.
