TODD: If you hear the mockingbird media refer to this bill, this attempt of Biden, this budget as “an infrastructure plan,” it\u2019s not. That would be like referring to (laughing) a Big Mac as cheese. “What\u2019d you have for lunch?” “Cheese.” It\u2019s worse than the percentage. It\u2019s more than half of this doesn\u2019t have anything to do with infrastructure and it\u2019s $2 trillion price tag, or more. But what\u2019s in it is a complete and utter shell game. Let me give you one bullet point.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Legal Insurrection has a great article about this. This plan calls for $85 billion to modernize existing transit systems and help agencies expand to meet retired demand. So let\u2019s keep track of this. You live in Dubuque, Iowa. Your bus is gonna get federal money taken from Dubuque, Iowa, with a rake — a percentage of that — taken by federal workers for the pleasure of counting it and collecting it and spending it, and then sending you some back but with a bunch of rules attached to it.<\/p>\n

It is a shell game. Furthermore, did you notice during the covid flu… Well, I mean we still have the flu around. But during the height of the Democrats\u2019 medically useless, deadly, politically advantageous lockdowns, that the buses kept running. Want to know why? I talked to an expert about transits on this guy named Mark Harmsworth from Washington state. When the wheels are rolling, the bus people are getting paid federal monies.<\/p>\n

So when no one was going to work, the buses kept rolling because they kept soaking up money from us. There\u2019s this: There is going to be a bunch of money to cap wells. The plan has $16 billion toward hundreds of thousands of jobs plugging oil and gas wells and reclaiming abandoned coal, hard rock, and uranium mines. Okay.<\/p>\n

What about the money that we could spend actually getting access to the oil under our own land? Of course, that\u2019s verboten, absolutely verboten. Joe Biden\u2019s dementia read from Barack Obama\u2019s teleprompter an indictment of the wealth of the very people his party has made 30% more wealthy with their covid lockdowns.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

BIDEN: (echo) Even before the crisis we\u2019re now facing, those at the very top in America were doing very well, which is fine. They were doing great. But everyone else was falling behind. The pandemic only made the divisions so much worse and more obvious. Millions of Americans lost their jobs last year while the wealthiest 1% of Americans saw their net worth increase by $4 trillion. Just goes to show you how distorted and unfair our economy has become. It wasn\u2019t always this way.<\/p>\n

TODD: So let\u2019s speak of distortions. The pandemic did none of that. None of it. The medically useless, deadly, selective, politically advantageous lockdowns did that. Mark Zuckerberg\u2019s wealth went up. Jeff Bezos\u2019 wealth went up. Bill Gates\u2019 wealth went up. Jack Dorsey\u2019s wealth went up. Big Business soaked it in during this period of time. And he speaks of unfairness as, to this day, you have small business owners being crushed for daring to open their businesses.<\/p>\n

Speaking of unfairness, some illegal immigrants are getting up to $27,000 to not work in a country where it is illegal for them to work. New York so-called lawmakers want to give billions of dollars to former inmates and illegal immigrants. When you speak of unfairness in infrastructure, a 14-foot wall — infrastructure — was where two coyotes, human smugglers, dropped two toddlers from a 14-foot fence into the United States, mocking us and potentially killing these kids — and it\u2019s on video.<\/p>\n

But Biden\u2019s got that under control. His dementia\u2019s perfectly in control of that. Now, just as the fake environmentalists give China a total pass for their carbon output, the mockingbirds give Mexico a pass for the role in flooding America with illegal immigrants as Rush says.<\/a><\/p>\n

RUSH: I\u2019m sure that most of you know this, but the way asylum works, in a legal sense, if you\u2019re say, from El Salvador or Guatemala and you want to flee and seek political asylum elsewhere, guess what? The law says you must apply in the first country you reach after fleeing your own.<\/p>\n

Well, that\u2019s Mexico. But Mexico has been acting as a pass-through. Mexico has not been stopping the people or the caravans. Mexico has been facilitating their trek northward. And so when they get to the United States, then they seek asylum, and the other loophole for that is that once you seek asylum, it\u2019s different than coming in and being an illegal immigrant.<\/p>\n

When you seek asylum, well, that\u2019s when you get detained and that\u2019s when you get separated from your family, and that\u2019s when you get released after time with an order to come back and have your asylum request processed in court. But guess what happens? They never come back. They just disappear into the framework of the country.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

It\u2019s a scam! It has been a scam, and it\u2019s been a scam, allowed to be a scam because nobody\u2019s had the guts to enforce the law. And they said, “Well, we can\u2019t, Rush, because we can\u2019t track every one of these people. Once, you know, we detain them and they leave and don\u2019t come back for their hearing, what are we supposed to do?”<\/p>\n

Well, it would seem to me maybe the solution is to not let \u2019em in and apply in the first place because that\u2019s first step of the illegality here.<\/p>\n

TODD: Opportunity to take the information we learn from Rush\u2019s enduring wisdom in today\u2019s headlines show the video: Show the kids being dropped 14 feet into this country. And we\u2019re empowering this. Show this. Team EIB just sent this to me. This is from September of last year. I was just talking about the bus scam. In Fairfax County, Virginia, they wanted to keep paying school bus drivers even though schools were online.<\/p>\n

You\u2019ve seen it in your community, the buses keep rolling, the wheels keep rolling. That\u2019s federal money, and it\u2019s an utter scam taking out of your pocket during a lockdown. They\u2019re going to retrofit homes for green energy. They intend to spend billions of dollars on this. Do the people want them retrofitted? Are we going to pretend that solar is sustainable in this retrofitting? We\u2019re going to install charging stations for cars around the country.<\/p>\n

Is there enough energy for this?<\/p>\n

Elon Musk says there\u2019s not enough energy, electrical energy for any of this. Lastly, why us? Why are we paying for that, not the car companies? The liberals pretend to hate Big Business, until it\u2019s installing their donors in our pocketbooks. And lastly, with all of this, highways are federal infrastructure. Federal buildings are federal infrastructure. None of this, none of the rest of this has anything to do with federal infrastructure. It is pay-to-play walking-around-money time. Share that with any of your leftist friends who still are not a member of the full leftist cult.<\/p>\n
