KEN: So much happening, and Joe Biden and the Biden family, they\u2019re at the eye of the storm. And what makes it so frightening is the news media is intentionally running interference for the Bidens. They always have. Just like with Hillary, just like with Obama, just like with Bill, just like with a number of people, if they like you, they\u2019re there to cover for you or cover up for you.<\/p>\n

And right now, we have so many things going on with Joe Biden. And yesterday was such a horrific, horrific performance, I mean, mentally, physically, leadership-wise in that press conference. And the best the news media could do is say, “Oh, he was so real,” or whatever. But what really bothered me — and I\u2019m sure you\u2019re in the same boat…<\/p>\n

\"\"President Trump, the cornerstone of his initial campaign was making America safer, especially at the border, and yesterday over and over, Joe Biden sat there and told lie after lie about what\u2019s happening at the border, the statistics and everything else white the news media just sat there and once again Rush has gotta explain it. Here it is.<\/a><\/p>\n

RUSH: I believe — and I think I\u2019m a thousand percent correct about this — the purpose of this budget deal…There is limit on how much of border and fence can be built. There\u2019s a limit on what kind can be built. There\u2019s a limit on modernization. This bill is filled with congressional edicts telling the president of the United States what he cannot do.<\/p>\n

Now, it authorizes $23 billion for Homeland Security, but it specifies $1.375 billion for fencing and bordering. But there are so many limits on this as to make this practically irrelevant — by design and on purpose, because I firmly believe that what members of Congress (both parties) actually want with this bill is to send a message that nothing is ever gonna happen as long as Donald Trump is president.<\/p>\n

The attempt in this budget deal is to send a message to you Trump voters that it\u2019s worthless voting for him, that it is a waste of time supporting him, because they are demonstrating that he can\u2019t get anything done. They are not gonna let him get anything done. They\u2019re gonna put obstacles in the way and they\u2019re gonna make sure, as best they can, he can\u2019t get anything done.<\/p>\n

For the most part, the Republicans and Democrats are for open borders. There are exceptions on the Republican side. But there are a lot of Republicans that don\u2019t want Trump to succeed even now. There are a lot of Republicans just after he was inaugurated who don\u2019t want him to succeed. So they come up with a piece of legislation here that is outrageous.<\/p>\n

It is outrageous in its denial of the existence of a genuine emergency at the border. They don\u2019t care. They will deal with whatever mess they create. They don\u2019t care how bad it gets because in their world, the only mess is Donald Trump — and since the Russian effort and the Mueller effort and everything else related to that has failed to get his approval numbers down (and that has been the objective from the get-go), this is the latest effort, and it won\u2019t be long…<\/p>\n

\"\"You mark my words on this. So drug cartels can deliver unaccompanied kids to the border, and we are making it possible for unaccompanied alien children to be picked up by their parents later when they arrive, and we are establishing an actual route for this, reopening the joint cartel-to-agency smuggling route that was in existence during the Obama administration!<\/p>\n

There is divided government, and on the issue of illegal immigration, we don\u2019t have two parties. We\u2019ve got one. We have almost a unitarian purpose when it comes to illegal immigration, and that should not surprise anybody. That\u2019s not new. That\u2019s been the case since the George W. Bush administration all the way through the Obama years.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s always been you, the American people, who have put the brakes on this. All of the faxes, the emails, the letters, the tweets, whatever you have done to let your people in Washington know. What they\u2019re really hoping is you\u2019ll just get so frustrated, you\u2019ll just stop being involved in politics. And that means you\u2019ll stop being an opponent to them.<\/p>\n

KEN: Exactly, and what Rush just said hits it on the head again. It\u2019s up to us, we the people. Every day we talk about citizen journalists. Every day you turn on the news, and you\u2019re like, “Where is the news?” So people are just going out by themselves and getting information, because it\u2019s your right, whether it\u2019s the Freedom of Information Act or you take your own video out.<\/p>\n

In fact, I just posted Ted Cruz, all of his videos from the border. And I can tell you this: You haven\u2019t seen those on the news, and there\u2019s a reason. But what Rush just said is exactly correct. The majority of both parties, as far as the leadership goes, they don\u2019t have a problem with open borders. And, you know, if people want to stop something, they will.<\/p>\n

If people have the power to stop something, they will. If they have the power to stop it but they don\u2019t want to, they won\u2019t. So if you\u2019re thinking, “Are you trying to say that they don\u2019t care that the border?” Exactly. That\u2019s exactly what I\u2019m trying to say. I\u2019m trying to say that the Pat Toomeys of the world and the Chuck Schumers and the Mitch McConnells and the Mitt Romneys — and I could go on.<\/p>\n

\"\"If it\u2019s really something that matters to them, they\u2019ll lose sleep over it and get it done. But if they have bigger things to do, bigger fish to fry like their own future. Irregardless of America First, nothing\u2019s gonna get done. That\u2019s why it took prison reform is such a great example. Everybody talks such a great game about that.<\/p>\n

We heard George Bush talk about it, when he read Bill Clinton talk about it, we heard Barack Obama talk about it. Who does it? President Donald J. Trump. The same thing with black colleges. I could go on through the list. America sees this now. We know the border is a ridiculous crisis right now. It shouldn\u2019t even be happening.<\/p>\n

And we know that our Congress could have stopped it over and over and over and over again. But instead, it\u2019s like any other crisis. Once the Democrats get near it, it becomes their tool. “How do we keep it going? How do we lever it? How do we hang it around someone else\u2019s neck?<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

“We could milk this forever,” kind of like racism. I think that\u2019s one of the reasons that the Democrats like to keep racism alive, in the classroom, in the business, in the media. Because they can milk it, because it was a crisis, one of many crises that they use.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
