RUSH: Here we go to Greensburg, Pennsylvania. This is Susie. You\u2019re up first today, and it\u2019s great to have you with us. Hi.<\/p>\n

CALLER: Hi, Rush. I want you to know that we\u2019re saying prayers for you during your medical battles. That\u2019s first off.<\/p>\n

RUSH: Thank you very much. I\u2019m convinced that they work.<\/p>\n

CALLER: Great. Having a sister that passed away from ovarian cancer or colon cancer, they never knew which, it was traumatic. So that\u2019s why I\u2019m really, really pulling for you.<\/p>\n

RUSH: Thank you very much.<\/p>\n

CALLER: Thank you. And what I wanted to ask you and sort of talk about is from what I\u2019m looking at on Facebook and some other places, not all the Proud Boys are white. I mean, they look like they have some black people. How can that be a white supremacist group?<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>RUSH: They aren\u2019t. I\u2019m glad you brought that up. I\u2019ve got the story on the Proud Boys in The Stack<\/a> here, and I am glad that you reminded me of this because the Proud Boys are not a white supremacist group. “Black Professor Insists that Proud Boys Aren\u2019t White Supremacists.”<\/a> Trump didn\u2019t even know who they are. He never heard of \u2019em.<\/p>\n

“Wilfred Reilly, associate professor of political science at Kentucky State University, said Wednesday that ‘the Proud Boys aren\u2019t white supremacists,\u2019 … and noting that their international chairman, Enrique Tarrio, is Black. … 10% to 20% of Proud Boys activists are people of color, a diverse racial composition that is “extremely well-known in law . … Others have confirmed his research on social media.” It\u2019s in the Washington Times. So if they aren\u2019t white supremacists and if there are people of color and if the international grand pooh-bah is black, then how can they be a white supremacist group?<\/p>\n

CALLER: That just doesn\u2019t make sense to me. And I don\u2019t understand why they keep trying to spin this web to capture him into saying something that, “Oh, see, we gotcha! We knew it, we knew it,” and it\u2019s like they\u2019re all lawyers in there waiting for the word. I watched that press conference today, and it really started to make my blood boil. I mean, I just went, “What? I can\u2019t believe this.” And they\u2019re all in tune with each other. And they\u2019re just saying the same thing. They just go to a different face. And it\u2019s starting to really get monotonous.<\/p>\n

And I said, “They\u2019ve really lost their status, this press.” You know, they don\u2019t have the gala events. I used to watch them. I mean, I admit, I used to watch the gala events when they used to have Christmas at the White House, and they would announce Mr. and Mrs. Brian Williams, and they\u2019d walk across the stage all smiling and everything. And they don\u2019t have any of that now. So I guess this is their format. But it\u2019s just, the entrapment, that\u2019s what this feels like to me, that —<\/p>\n

RUSH: What do you mean, Christmas at the White House with Mr. and Mrs. Brian Williams? I missed that show.<\/p>\n

CALLER: Oh, it wasn\u2019t just them. They parade celebrities across. Do you remember back in the nineties, back in those, you know, older days —<\/p>\n

RUSH: Well, I —<\/p>\n

\"\"CALLER: — they used to have gala events —<\/p>\n

RUSH: Maybe a little. I don\u2019t remember full length TV shows about it, but I know what you\u2019re talking about. I do. Anyway, thank you, Susie.<\/p>\n

BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n

RUSH: Yeah. It looks like the overall leader, international leader of the Proud Boys, Enrique Tarrio, is a black Cuban guy. A black professor named Wilfred Reilly in the Washington Times (summarized), “If you\u2019re calling a group of people with more than 10% people of color — headed by an Afro-Latino guy — ‘white supremacist,\u2019 that doesn\u2019t make any sense. It\u2019s not what they are.”<\/p>\n

BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n

RUSH: We have an audio sound bite from Enrique Tarrio, Enrique Tarrio, a black Cuban dude who is the international chairman of the Proud Boys. And this is yesterday in the U.K., Sky News television channel, talking about Trump telling his organization to stand back and stand by.<\/p>\n

TARRIO: I don\u2019t say this as an endorsement from the president at all, by any means. I think he was asked a very pointed question. The president was asked to disavow white supremacy, which he did two times within the scope of that question. Biden made a crucial mistake by naming our organization for him to disavow. We\u2019ve been called many names, and probably the most inaccurate name that you can call us is white supremacist. As you can see, as your viewers can see.<\/p>\n

\"\"RUSH: Because Enrique Tarrio ain\u2019t white. He\u2019s a black dude. He\u2019s Cuban.<\/p>\n

Up next, Robert Johnson. Now, Mr. Snerdley, this goes along with I\u2019m beginning to think that there may be some bleeding of black support in internal Biden polling data, \u2019cause this hysteria on CNN today about Trump not denouncing white supremacy, they\u2019re doing everything to try to convince everybody watching CNN that Trump\u2019s a racist, white supremacist pig.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
