I did. The news that the bounty on American troops that the Russians were paying to the Taliban? That\u2019s been outed. Shocker. I know you\u2019re stunned. &#8220;What? The mockingbird media members, they&#8230; they lied to us? No! I &#8212; I can\u2019t believe it.

So you\u2019re saying the Taliban only kill Americans because the Russians pay them?&#8221; Rush saw this in a completely different way. Now, do this. Try to remove yourself from being a lifelong lover of this program.<\/p>\n<p>Just consider this as an observer. The archives of Rush Limbaugh\u2019s work are literally more accurate sources of news than the entire daily regurgitations of the mockingbird media. If you doubt that, <a href=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/daily\/2020\/06\/29\/you-have-to-doubt-the-russia-taliban-bounty-story\/\">listen here as Rush told all of us that this Russian bounty story was a hoax. <\/a><\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Now, this Taliban story. Folks, I\u2019m gonna go out on a limb here. I really think this so-called news about Russia offering to pay the Taliban &#8212; you know, this bounty story out there that Trump says he didn\u2019t know anything about. I really think that&#8230; There\u2019s nothing in the news media that\u2019s true anymore. You have to constantly remember this. There\u2019s nothing that\u2019s true.<\/p>\n<div id=\"zype_607dbb281de2e100018a73eb\"><\/div>\n<p><script src=\"https:\/\/player.zype.com\/embed\/607dbb281de2e100018a73eb.js?api_key=6yUf3WZePk78GtpC3BXdZSqZ5ma_gYmV_rEJ8OYJZ0wq3AlDKM2RFnOcBN0xiMco&amp;controls=true\" type=\"text\/javascript\"><\/script><\/p>\n<p>You cannot rely on the first take of anything you see in the Washington Post, New York Times, thus CNN, and so I don\u2019t. And my suspicion is aroused at every one of these stories that has supposedly bombshell, end-of-the-road news for Trump. So this news about Russia offering to pay the Taliban a bounty? I think it\u2019s a leak. I think it comes from Democrat political operatives to hurt Trump.<\/p>\n<p>In fact, I wouldn\u2019t suspect&#8230; What\u2019s this news doing out here now? None of these figures are in the news. I think this news goes way, way back to March. They didn\u2019t want this news to be buried by the coronavirus news when it was new, and the shutdown was new, and the lockdown was new, \u2019cause this doesn\u2019t make any sense at all.<\/p>\n<p>Now Pelosi is right back at it. If there is any doubt now, Pelosi is using this fake story to revive the Russia conspiracy story again, the theories that the Trump campaign &#8220;meddled in the election,&#8221; that Trump is &#8220;an agent&#8221; of Putin. She\u2019s using this to say, &#8220;Trump says he didn\u2019t know anything about it. He said he didn\u2019t know anything about it.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>So if Putin wants to pay a bounty for killing American soldiers and Trump looks the other way, this fits right in with the fact that they will not give up on this meddling and conspiracy story. She said she didn\u2019t believe Trump\u2019s denial that he was briefed on the plot. Instead, he wasn\u2019t briefed. She said she believed that Russia is blackmailing Trump. (impression) &#8220;This is as bad as it gets.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-393001\" src=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/APP-20201-041921-Taliban.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/APP-20201-041921-Taliban.jpg 640w, https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/APP-20201-041921-Taliban-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/APP-20201-041921-Taliban-480x270.jpg 480w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/>&#8220;And yet the president will not confront the Russians on this score. Denies being briefed.&#8221; She added, &#8220;With him, all roads lead to Putin.&#8221; They won\u2019t give this up! This whole thing, this whole bounty story that he says he knew nothing about, I\u2019m sure it\u2019s a leak from Democrat operatives &#8212; with the willing participation the Drive-By Media &#8212; to carry forth this coup attempt.<\/p>\n<p>This entire Taliban bounty-paying, Trump ignoring it, not knowing about it &#8212; he\u2019s a traitor, he\u2019s being blackmailed &#8212; is fake news! It\u2019s all made up! It\u2019s got everything the Democrats need to continue their coup. It\u2019s got the Taliban; it\u2019s got Russia. It\u2019s got the U.K. involved &#8212; which is heavily involved in the effort to get rid of Trump, their intelligence communities were.<\/p>\n<p>It probably is a fake intelligence report, just like the golden showers story, all these prostitutes who Trump hired to urinate on a bed because Obama and Michelle (My Belle) Obama had slept on it in Moscow. Now, unlike the Obama Regime, the adults in the Trump administration don\u2019t brief the president on unverified intelligence.<\/p>\n<p>TODD: There it is!
