It\u2019s been somewhat gratifying, if I may explain. My lovely wife, Kathryn, had an observation last night, and some members of the staff today had a similar observation. She said, &#8220;You know, it\u2019s uncanny. Here you are, you\u2019re aware of for three days. You\u2019re not here Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday. Where are you? You are getting treatment for stage 4 advanced lung cancer. You don\u2019t even know if you\u2019re gonna be feeling well enough to show up on Thursday or Friday. It turns out that you are. You show up on Thursday, you haven\u2019t been there Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday, and you end up dominating the analysis of the big financial story of the week.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-287433\" src=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/ZZ-APP-BIG-VOICE.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/ZZ-APP-BIG-VOICE.jpg 640w, https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/ZZ-APP-BIG-VOICE-300x169.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>And then one of the staff members here said, &#8220;In addition to that -&#8221; that\u2019s a great compliment, by the way, and I am very grateful for it. But one of the staff members here said, &#8220;You know, you are your own best PR person.&#8221; And, you know, that\u2019s true, but it\u2019s a bummer, that in 30 years there isn\u2019t anybody but me who can explain what I do. There\u2019s nobody but me who can explain how I do it.<\/p>\n<p>I remember when I first entertained the idea of hiring a PR firm, \u2019cause that\u2019s what you did. So I went through the motions and I was interviewing these guys, various companies, and I noticed that every one of them said, &#8220;What you need to do, you need to call such-and-such at the New York Times and explain who you are and how you do what you do. And then you need to call the Washington Post.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Well, what are you gonna do?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I just did it. I\u2019ve just advised you what you gotta do.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>I said, &#8220;Why do I have to make the call? Why do I have to call the New York Times? Why do I have to call the Washington Post? Why don\u2019t you do it?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Well, you\u2019re seeking our advice, you want to hire us as your PR firm. We\u2019re telling you what you need to do.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;So what you\u2019re telling me is, I don\u2019t need you. If you\u2019re just gonna add to my workload, I don\u2019t need you.&#8221; And so I\u2019ve never had a PR firm. I\u2019ve never had had an agent. I\u2019ve never had, quote, unquote, representation, because there isn\u2019t anybody out there who can explain what I do and how I do it, even after 31 years or however many it is. And it\u2019s probably a good thing, all-in-all. I guess it\u2019s one of the reasons why I\u2019m still doing it and still unique after 31 years, that there\u2019s not a soul out there that can explain what I\u2019m doing.<\/p>\n<p>And, I tell you what. This GameStop story, I\u2019ll give you an example, there is a piece here by <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bizpacreview.com\/2021\/01\/29\/rush-gamestop-phenomenon-is-reflection-of-politics-everything-is-rigged-in-favor-of-the-elites-1022876\/\">Frieda Powers at BizPacReview.com<\/a>. And this story is basically nothing but quotes of what I said yesterday. The first paragraph explains what the story is and then every paragraph after that &#8212; well, the next four, five paragraphs, six paragraphs are what I said. They didn\u2019t even try to rework it in their own words. And I need to thank Frieda Powers because I have never been this accurately quoted in this long a story that I can remember.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s uncanny. Normally in a story this long that quotes me they\u2019re gonna get a bunch of things wrong. They\u2019re gonna misinterpret, they\u2019re gonna misanalyze, or they\u2019re gonna misquote. This thing, none of that. It is accurate from beginning to end.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.bizpacreview.com\/2021\/01\/29\/rush-gamestop-phenomenon-is-reflection-of-politics-everything-is-rigged-in-favor-of-the-elites-1022876\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-380543 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/APP-BPR-TEARAWAY-012921-x.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/APP-BPR-TEARAWAY-012921-x.jpg 640w, https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/APP-BPR-TEARAWAY-012921-x-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/APP-BPR-TEARAWAY-012921-x-480x270.jpg 480w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/a>&#8220;Radio host Rush Limbaugh compared the surging GameStop shares and the latest frenzy on Wall Street to the political battles between the establishment and everyday Americans,&#8221; in politics. &#8220;The host told his listeners Thursday that the surge in trading volume in GameStop\u2019s stock price that skyrocketed thanks to a group of Reddit users was &#8216;the most fascinating thing\u2019 to occur in a while, noting the similarities between today\u2019s political landscape and the way platforms such as Robinhood and Interactive Brokers stepped in to restrict trading.<\/p>\n<p>And then they quote me accurately, &#8220;Folks, it\u2019s not just political now. The elites are bent out of shape that a bunch of average, ordinary users have figured out how to make themselves billionaires.&#8221; And that quote shows up all over cable news last night and this morning.<\/p>\n<p>Now, what\u2019s the latest on this? Well, it all depends on how deeply you want to go. I was watching Charles Payne today. Charles Payne goes back and forth between the Fox Business Network and the Fox News network. And I think I saw him being interviewed by Bill Hemmer. I think it was on Fox News. And he was talking about, as an example, the financial crisis in 2008.<\/p>\n<p>Does everybody remember that? I mean, that\u2019s 12 years ago now. That was a central, seminal event that led to the election of Barack Obama. Because you remember what McCain did. McCain canceled his campaign. And it wasn\u2019t blazing any trails anyway. But McCain suspends his campaign to go back to Washington to monitor events. Suspend his campaign. The financial crisis is more important than his campaign. No. Your campaign is how you\u2019re gonna fix this. But he suspended the campaign. And Obama didn\u2019t. And Obama was left to own the issue.<\/p>\n<p>And, of course, the financial crisis of 2008&#8230; When Charles Payne was discussing it today, he used it as one of the examples of why people today are so ticked off still at the elites in finance. Now, remember, what\u2019s going on here in all this GameStop story from my standpoint is&#8230; I mean, the financial aspects of it are fascinating, and the idea that people can do this.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-380564\" src=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/APP-012921-Daily-Mail-Robinhood-GameStop-DAILY-MAIL-xx.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/APP-012921-Daily-Mail-Robinhood-GameStop-DAILY-MAIL-xx.jpg 640w, https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/APP-012921-Daily-Mail-Robinhood-GameStop-DAILY-MAIL-xx-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/APP-012921-Daily-Mail-Robinhood-GameStop-DAILY-MAIL-xx-480x270.jpg 480w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>For example, the people that knew what they were doing in one day earned their kids\u2019 college education &#8212; in one day. This has not been possible. Well, it\u2019s been possible, but it\u2019s not been as accessible as it is now. In one day, a lot of people trading in this stock were able to earn enough money to pay their kids\u2019 college education, four years, in one day.<\/p>\n<p>Which will lead me to further analysis of this here in just a second. But Charles Payne was talking about how people with memories of the financial crisis in 2008 &#8212; and he was right about this. He said (summarized), &#8220;The reason why there\u2019s still a lot of noses bent out of joint, is if you go back to the financial crisis in 2008, the people who got us in trouble are the people who got the bailout money,&#8221; and everybody knew it.<\/p>\n<p>The big banks who overextended on the subprime mortgage crisis, who had continued to underwrite worthless paper. The subprime mortgage crisis was the foundational, not building block, but it was the foundational cause for the 2008 financial crisis, and these banks &#8212; substitute &#8220;hedge funds&#8221; in the GameStop story. The banks in 2008 were gonna be wiped out, and so the treasury secretary, Hank Paulson, went in there.<\/p>\n<p>He gathered them all in a room at 3 o\u2019clock one afternoon and told them what they\u2019re gonna have to do if they want the bailout money, and they got their bailout money. The people that caused the problem, who got us in trouble, are the same people that got the bailout money &#8212; and Americans knew it and recognized it and were livid about it.<\/p>\n<p>It was one of the things that led to the creation, the organic creation of the Tea Party two years later in 2010, along with Obama and his stimulus plan and Obamacare. And the continuing slap in the face it was that Washington continued to make sure that the people who think they\u2019re smarter than everybody else got in trouble because they\u2019re not smarter than anybody else or everybody else. But they are in the establishment.<\/p>\n<p>They are in the elites, the deep state, whatever you want to call \u2019em, and they got bailed out, and people remembered it. But these people at GameStop and Robinhood and all the Reddit users, they\u2019re too young to remember. They might remember it. They\u2019re Millennials now. They\u2019d probably be around 30. So they might remember.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-380486\" src=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/APP-012821-GameStop-Robinhood-2.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/APP-012821-GameStop-Robinhood-2.jpg 640w, https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/APP-012821-GameStop-Robinhood-2-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/APP-012821-GameStop-Robinhood-2-480x270.jpg 480w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>They might be old enough depending on their parents. Their parents might have been running around talking about how unfair it was and how rigged the game was. But it remains a big reason why people are mad. It remains a big reason why, when you explain to people what the GameStop story is really all about, it resonates.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s why when you explain that it\u2019s nothing more than the same kind of elite behavior in politics where if you don\u2019t agree with them, you\u2019re gonna be shut up &#8212; you\u2019re gonna be relegated to insignificance and irrelevance. The same thing\u2019s gonna happen to you. You\u2019re gonna assume you\u2019re not smart enough to do the right thing with your money by people who think they\u2019re smarter than you who actually aren\u2019t.<\/p>\n<p>So this is an area where there\u2019s been a pent-up frustration, and it was just one of the many things that led to the election of Donald Trump in 2016. It\u2019s not a mystery at all why Trump was elected. But I\u2019m gonna tell you at the same time, these people were not&#8230; It just wasn\u2019t gonna happen. Trump was not gonna win in 2020. No matter what, it wasn\u2019t gonna happen.<\/p>\n<p>No matter what.<\/p>\n<p>They spent four years with this phony hoax and this coup attempt. Four years. It didn\u2019t matter. They didn\u2019t care whatever it took. He was not going to get reelected, and now that he has not been reelected, what are they doing? They are reversing everything he did. They are tearing down the wall at the border and building a wall around the United States Capitol.<\/p>\n<p>Have you heard that? They\u2019re building a restraining wall around the U.S. Capitol like there is around the White House, but they\u2019re tearing down the wall at the U.S. border. What\u2019s the message? The message is that illegal immigrants are far safer, far more dependable, far less of a threat to our country and to our culture, to our society than conservative right-wingers and Republicans are.<\/p>\n<p>We need a wall bit around the Capitol to keep them away from their own government\u2019s number one building. So on the GameStop story, folks, there are still so many layers to this. One thing to keep in mind is Robinhood and the other brokerage platforms decided to allow traders to buy GameStop again on their platforms today when they opened. They stopped trading of shares yesterday.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-380367\" src=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/APP-012821-GameStop-2.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/APP-012821-GameStop-2.jpg 640w, https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/APP-012821-GameStop-2-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/APP-012821-GameStop-2-480x270.jpg 480w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Well, they really only prevented buy orders. Selling of the stock was still permitted because that drives the shares down and helps save their hedge fund buddies, which is what this story became: How to bail out and save their hedge fund friends, just like bailing out the banks in 2008 was the number one objective.<\/p>\n<p>So in some cases, Robinhood forcibly sold GameStop shares owned by account holders to drive the share price down even lower. Now, Robinhood and other firms are gonna try to save face today, and it\u2019s already underway. They claim that they halted buying because it was unprecedented and they needed to make sure that they were able to handle the sort of volume.<\/p>\n<p>Meaning they had to make sure they had enough capital on hand to handle whatever was gonna happen. But now they\u2019re back open, and they are here to serve the little guy again. The little guy is winning again in this story. Now, all they needed to do was to stop buy orders for just one day. That would cause the stock to plummet, which is what their hedge fund buddies wanted to happen in the first place.<\/p>\n<p>So what\u2019s basically taken place overnight &#8212; and this is where the layers get deep, and I\u2019m not gonna explain to you how.<\/p>\n<p>So the market opened today. The price of GameStop goes up; the hedge funds won\u2019t get hurt &#8212; or at least not as much &#8212; because they got out of their short positions. The machinations were taken overnight to allow them to extricate themselves from their short positions, and so the Robinhood app and other brokers may have saved Wall Street and screwed Main Street today.<\/p>\n<p>We\u2019ll just have to wait and see how it plays out, and if that is what happens, it\u2019s because pressure was brought to bear. Think of Robinhood as Trump in a way. Sort of, not totally, but think of Robinhood and these other apps as Trump or MAGA under deep pressure from the elites and threats and so forth &#8212; and so that\u2019s basically where we are.<\/p>\n<p>But there\u2019s another way to look at this that I want to share with you when we get back.<\/p>\n<p>BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: So wherever the GameStop story ends up, what it is (and the way it should be seen) is as the ultimate illustration &#8212; and you might even go so far as to say endorsement &#8212; of the free enterprise conservatism over liberalism or progressivism, and let me explain why. The guys on Reddit who did all of this &#8212; the &#8220;normalish people,&#8221; as they were referred to in the Drive-By Tech Media.<\/p>\n<p>The tech media is part of the media elites as well, folks. My little tech bloggers, they think that they are special and smarter than everybody else. They fashion themselves as being part of the elites, and they\u2019re referring to these Reddit guys as &#8220;normalish people.&#8221; They talk about people in terms like this: Normal people, special people, elites.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-380485\" src=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/APP-012821-GameStop-Reddit.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/APP-012821-GameStop-Reddit.jpg 640w, https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/APP-012821-GameStop-Reddit-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/APP-012821-GameStop-Reddit-480x270.jpg 480w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>So these normal people on Reddit, they saw an imbalance, an inequity in the market. Hedge funds were selling a stock they didn\u2019t own. Now, this is key. This is what short selling is in addition to everything else. It\u2019s selling a stock you don\u2019t even own. In this instance, their objective was to drive the price down. They were perfectly willing to destroy this company and then reap a profit at the same time because of their own actions.<\/p>\n<p>None of what they were going to get rich off of was of any innate value of the company underlying the stock. The company involved, GameStop, was actually immaterial. They just saw a target that if they could short sell and drive its value down and be the reason the value went down, then they could score amazing, billion-dollar profits. Folks, they were literally making their own weather. This is how hedge funds have been making money for a long time.<\/p>\n<p>Not only this way, but you pick out a company, and you drive its price down. You sell short. You\u2019re not brilliant. You\u2019re not seeing a company with incredible growth value and trying to get on that gravy train. No! You\u2019re trying to manufacture a market event by creating a company that is going to lose its value because you are gonna make that happen. And that\u2019s why you\u2019re smarter than everybody else. And these guys at Reddit saw what was happening and saw an opportunity to thwart the smartest guys in the room.<\/p>\n<p>BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Looky here. Maxine Waters has announced that she\u2019s gonna have hearings on GameStop. She gonna investigate the GameStop scandal. She gonna rein in the corrupt practices of hedge funds. It will never happen, folks. She doesn\u2019t even know what they do. Maxine Waters &#8212; do you think she can explain to you what a hedge fund does? Do you think she could explain why a hedge fund is different than a brokerage? But she gonna investigate \u2019em.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-357502\" src=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/APP-Maxine-Waters.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/APP-Maxine-Waters.jpg 640w, https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/APP-Maxine-Waters-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/APP-Maxine-Waters-480x270.jpg 480w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Now, don\u2019t forget. Her husband is named Sidney. Sidney used to play for the Oakland Raiders. And he was a banker. Yeah, Sidney, her husband, got bailout money during the TARP business his bank was never entitled to, that no similar bank got, all because he was Mr. Maxine Waters. &#8220;Hedge funds have a long history of predatory conduct, and that conduct\u2019s entirely indefensible,&#8221; said Maxine Waters.<\/p>\n<p>Here\u2019s this, speaking of the swamp, Janet Yellin, who is the Treasury secretary in the Biden administration, received $810,000 in speaking fees from the hedge funds that bailed out one of the primary losers in the GameStop story. Her financial disclosure forms showed that she made $337,500 for multiple days in October 2020 from Citadel. She also made $292,000 in October of 2019 and $180,000 in December of 2019. The Senate confirmed Yellin on Monday &#8212; she\u2019s the first female secretary of the Treasury &#8212; and Jennifer Psaki, the White House press secretary, was asked if Yellin is gonna recuse herself from any investigation involving GameStop, and Psaki dodged the question.<\/p>\n<p>It was a Reuters infobabe who asked Psaki if Yellin\u2019s connection to Robinhood would cause her to have to recuse herself from the administration\u2019s response to all this. Psaki said, &#8220;Obviously, we have a broad economic team. The SEC put out a statement yesterday.&#8221; No, she probably won\u2019t have to have her recuse herself. Yet she was paid off $800,000 from one of the hedge funds in the GameStop scandal.
