RUSH: There\u2019s a guy writing from the U.K. Guardian. His name is Fintan O\u2019Toole<\/a>, and I want to read just an excerpt from what he wrote yesterday. This guy is a classic hate-filled, radical leftist. “If Biden were to write this now, it would read as a heavy-handed political metaphor. He is about to fulfill an ambition that has driven him for half a century by assuming the presidency of the United States.”<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>So you see, we\u2019re to believe that what is going to be happen to Biden is he\u2019s gonna be inaugurated as president, and it is a lifelong dream. It\u2019s a passion. It is something that Biden has devoted himself to. It\u2019s an honorable thing. It\u2019s a great thing. Joe Biden is about to accomplish… This is not true! Biden has never thought this was possible.<\/p>\n

He ran for the presidency twice because it was the next thing to do, but he has never really believed that he was gonna be elected, including this time, I don\u2019t believe, unless they advised him on the methods that they were going to employ to secure his election. But the guy didn\u2019t campaign like he thought he was gonna win.<\/p>\n

He didn\u2019t do anything that made anybody believe that he literally even thought he was a serious candidate in all of this. So that\u2019s the first thing this guy, Fintan O\u2019Toole, tries to make us think is that Biden is the result of a lifelong dream, which, of course, legitimizes a lifelong passion, something that Biden has devoted his political life to, sacrifice and everything, blah, blah, blah.<\/p>\n

“Donald Trump\u2019s demented last days have washed away the illusion of the U.S. as a stable, settled democracy.” The illusion. “Donald Trump\u2019s demented last days have washed away the illusion of the U.S. as a stable, settled democracy.” We\u2019re none of this. We never have been. And now the world can see the truth as it\u2019s always been. We are not “a stable, settled democracy.” It took Trump to prove it.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

And then this: “On 6 January, a date that will live long in American infamy, all the entitled rage of the white nativism that Trump has channeled finally burst through the seawalls that protected the illusion of a healthy, functioning republic.” So, in other words, you Trump supporters are white supremacists, you\u2019re white nativists, and everything you\u2019re doing in support of Trump is because you are white supremacists first.<\/p>\n

You are white nativists. In other words, you hate people of color, and you don\u2019t want people of color anywhere in your country, and you are doing what you can to take this country back from all of the people who are not white that you hate and can\u2019t stand. Folks, this is so beyond the pale. I don\u2019t know about you, but I know a lot of Republicans.<\/p>\n

I do not know a single one of them who is informed by, motivated by, inspired by anything sort of like white supremacism, supremacy, white nativism. I don\u2019t know anybody who believes any of this. It\u2019s made up. To the extent there might be some people, they are such a small number, it\u2019s not even worth paying them any attention. They have to be lied about in daily news reports to get people to even be frightened of it.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s simply not a factor in defining the Republican Party or Trump supporters or the MAGA movement. It\u2019s not even a factor. And yet here\u2019s this guy, Fintan O\u2019Toole, “all the entitled rage of the white nativism that Trump has channeled finally burst through the seawalls that protected the illusion of a healthy, functioning –” All that happened on the 6th of January when there was, of course, the protest at the Capitol.<\/p>\n

And the protest at the Capitol, which we now know was organized by leftists and promoted by leftists, that supposedly was nothing but a bunch of you people, you white supremacists tried to take your country back. This is sick. But it gets reported unchallenged at most places. It\u2019s just allowed to sit out there and stew a pot of hate and fear which otherwise would not exist were it not for the lies in these kinds of reports.<\/p>\n

I think it\u2019s sick. It is absolutely sick that there are people who look at traditional American patriots as white supremacists, as white nativists. Nothing could be further from the truth. Anyway, I\u2019m sorry to sound so irritated by it, but I literally can\u2019t pretend that it doesn\u2019t bother me. Here\u2019s Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez. Audio sound bite number 22. This is back on Friday. She had a virtual town hall talking about Trump supporters.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

OCASIO-CORTEZ: There are people who are radicalized right now, and it is going to take a very long time, um, and it\u2019s going to take a long time and a lot of effort, um, to deradicalize those people.<\/p>\n

RUSH: Yeah. See? See?<\/p>\n

OCASIO-CORTEZ: Now, that is not to say that all hope is lost.<\/p>\n

RUSH: Oh, good.<\/p>\n

OCASIO-CORTEZ: We probably need to —<\/p>\n

RUSH: Good.<\/p>\n

OCASIO-CORTEZ: — double, triple, quadruple, um, or increase funding for these —<\/p>\n

RUSH: Oh.<\/p>\n

OCASIO-CORTEZ: — deradicalization programs.<\/p>\n

RUSH: We need more money. We need to increase funding. The magic words for every Democrat idea, we need to increase funding, we need to spend more money, we need to be given more money. It\u2019s gonna take a very long time, a lot of effort to deradicalize. She\u2019s talking about white supremacy here, folks. She\u2019s talking about white nativism, the same people that this Fintan O\u2019Toole of the U.K. Guardian\u2019s talking about.<\/p>\n

This is just an abjectly sick bunch of garbage these people are putting out there, and it\u2019s designed to scare Millennial kids, predominantly Millennial women who have been hijacked and have bought this notion that white America is guilty, that white America needs to pay a price, that white America is white supremacy and white nativism. It\u2019s the ultimate playing of the race card. Nothing could be further from the truth than all this.<\/p>\n

Let me get started on the phones. I meant to get to phones in the previous hour. Didn\u2019t happen so gonna make up for that now. Carolyn in Mayfield, Kentucky, great to have you. You are up first today. Hello.<\/p>\n

CALLER: Hello. Thank you for taking me on the phones today. And you were talking about the fear. As a more conservative person, I find that these people are causing a lot of fear. And the fear is something I\u2019m feeling because I see where the country is going. Between the media given the one side, the freedom of speech going out the window. And people are forgetting what actual patriotism is. People are forgetting what our country was meant to be. And if the Democrats had worked with President Trump, we would have been —<\/p>\n

\"\"RUSH: Wait, wait, wait. Let me correct you on one thing, Carolyn. They\u2019re not forgetting anything. It\u2019s taken them two generations to get us to this point, and they have done it in the public education system as well as the American higher education system. There has been almost a plodding, patient effort to propagandize young people, starting in middle school, even earlier than that. You could even say back into kindergarten.<\/p>\n

But there\u2019s been an effort to reprogram them into thinking America is a racist hellhole, that it always has been, and that white people present the greatest problem in an ongoing America. And they have succeeded. Millennials today are the first group of generational people to actually sign on to this in majority numbers. But it\u2019s not that people are forgetting anything. They\u2019re being taught this, and they\u2019re accepting it. They\u2019re believing it.<\/p>\n

CALLER: I know teachers that are afraid to teach or even speak to their fellow teachers about any conservative
\nviewpoint —<\/p>\n

RUSH: Yep.<\/p>\n

CALLER: — because they will lose their jobs. They will get called out on social media.<\/p>\n

RUSH: That\u2019s right. No, that\u2019s exactly right. That\u2019s a form of intimidation, to silence people. They\u2019ve done the same thing with teachers and parents. They\u2019ve got parents afraid to complain. And this is not new. Parents are afraid to complain about anything being done to their kids in school. They\u2019re afraid that their grades will be hijacked, their grades will be damaged, they won\u2019t be able to get into college.<\/p>\n

And so parents are just standing idly by and letting this propagandizing happen because they\u2019re deciding that “better that than my kid not being able to get an education.” Which, of course, is counterintuitive, but that\u2019s how they look at it. It\u2019s not a nitpick. It\u2019s not that people are forgetting anything. It\u2019s that they\u2019re being lied to, Carolyn. They are being propagandized into believing something totally untrue about their country. And that\u2019s something they\u2019ve been, as I say, plodding patiently toward for 50 years and it\u2019s ongoing.<\/p>\n

BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n

RUSH: Here is James in Edison, New Jersey. Great to have you on the program. Hello.<\/p>\n

CALLER: Okay, thank you. And I\u2019d just like to comment on what happened on January 6th in the morning. And since I\u2019ve been listening, I have my son and all his friends, you know, they\u2019re all homeschooling. And they found you live streaming; so they\u2019re all listening in a room, listening to me speak to you. They do have your book<\/a>. I hope they read them, or if they haven\u2019t yet, maybe, guys, you can read them. ‘Cause they\u2019ve been listening to you for part of their homeschooling day.<\/p>\n

RUSH: Well, I appreciate that. I really do. That\u2019s cool.<\/p>\n

CALLER: Well, you can buy his books and —<\/p>\n

RUSH: Let me jump forward here because I\u2019m the pro and you\u2019re the amateur in this arrangement. I mistakenly misread the clock. I\u2019m down to 15 seconds left, and what James is calling about here is what happened on January 6th. He\u2019s very worried of the long-term stain that this is going to put on the Republican Party, on us, and he wants to know where the movement is going as a result of this. He doesn\u2019t think that there\u2019s anything good in this. And James, I\u2019m gonna answer this on tomorrow\u2019s program. I\u2019ll make myself a reminder and a note. I\u2019m glad you called. Thank you very, very much.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
