TODD: So Rush was always on, of course, the cutting edge of societal evolution, and he told us, he warned us we were gonna see politics in everything, even sports. So question: Should we be waiting to find out if this Kentucky Derby horse, Medina Spirit, is MAGA?<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

RUSH: You know, I\u2019ll tell you, ladies and gentlemen.<\/a> You know me. I think if you wait long enough, you will detect politics in everything. Now, let\u2019s do a quick comparison. When Roger Clemens was accused of doping, the sports media turned on him (snaps) like that. He was guilty. He lied to Congress. They needed to throw him away and throw away the key at the same time. They were just enraged. I\u2019ll never forget it. I thought Clemens was this beloved sports figure, but when this happened, the media turned on Clemens.<\/p>\n

TODD: You\u2019ll hear more about this and Rush\u2019s analysis of this dynamic whereby maybe athletes would be turning to the Clinton-type defense of things, the Hillary Clinton-type, Benghazi-type non-excuses. I keep waiting, and I do have a call in to Dr. Fauci\u2019s office to see if this horse is covid positive? Because while we\u2019re testing things, I mean, we may as well get out a useless 35-cycle PCR test and put that in the horse\u2019s beak.<\/p>\n

Because if this thing is covid positive and it\u2019s a drug addict, I mean, they\u2019re really gonna be torn, because the left\u2019s version of drug addicts is to give them more drugs. That\u2019s the treatment vision. But if it\u2019s covid positive, why, we can have a whole set of problems here because we\u2019re not putting masks on horses but we\u2019re putting them on track athletes and they\u2019re passing out. Yes, it is a Tony Fauci update as we continue on the EIB Network.<\/p>\n

BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n

TODD: You know who warned us about the politicizing of sports really early on? Rush warned us about this. I never thought I would see the day where I would avoid sports or avoid seeing them, and I do because of what the NFL has become for me. It saddened me because I have an unbelievably strong emotional connection to football because it was something my father and I shared just in common — that and auto racing and the outdoors.<\/p>\n

But I played football and he watched me play it and he watched me play in a little, tiny role in a small college football program for a year, and he was to proud, even just with that. And it was something we could communicate about as we lived the apart. I lived in San Francisco before that was adopted and became a Third World country divorced entirely from the United States of America.<\/p>\n

\"\"It was only on the way out then, now it\u2019s gone, and he and I could visit about the game and about the personalities. My father and I didn\u2019t really disagree on politics. He wasn\u2019t a particularly a political person, and I am. But I avoid it because of what the NFL has told me. The NFL has told me, “We don\u2019t want you around, and certainly if you\u2019re around, you need to shut your hole or pretend to care about the social justice stuff that we\u2019re embracing and don\u2019t even understand.”<\/p>\n

I don\u2019t even think that the expediency with this with the NFL and social justice and backing a domestic terror group, Black Lives Matter, Inc., that doesn\u2019t… You know, I don\u2019t even know if they are aware of what they\u2019re actually causing, which is going to be the destruction of a country that can even support football (laughing), with the salaries and what we pay these talented people to do what they do to amuse us — or that used to be to amuse us.<\/p>\n

So my wife and I were at dinner yesterday, and there was sports on Fox News, and it was about the Kentucky Derby, and I\u2019m watching this almost desire for controversy. “The horse! Was the horse drugged?” Well, I assume so. It\u2019s a horse, and it\u2019s a super athletic horse. And I assume it\u2019s drugged. I didn\u2019t know that this was not a known thing. And I don\u2019t mean to decry sports.<\/p>\n

I\u2019m just right now taking a beating from one of my listeners for something I said about his sport of choice. So I certainly don\u2019t pretend to know horse racing. I don\u2019t. I have seen it. But I\u2019m watching sort of the desire for controversy about this. This horse may lose its title. The jockey may lose its title because it was apparently drugged. (laughing) Now it\u2019s a cr…? Is this like the Lance Armstrong of horses?<\/p>\n

That\u2019s what people are talking about. As you would imagine, Rush had a completely different take on this.<\/a> He was talking about Ray Lewis, and Ray Lewis was at one time accused of a brutal murder or double murder, and he was acquitted for that, as I recall. So if Rush was with us, as we all wish, he might ask us if this horse, Medina Spirit, would be able to using Hillary Clinton\u2019s infamous Benghazi shrug.<\/p>\n

RUSH: Ray Lewis at the Super Bowl under a cloud of suspicion. Did you know that one of the fastest-growing organisms, one of the fastest-growing things in all of mammaldom, in the entire mammal world, do you know what grows faster than almost anything? Deer antlers.<\/p>\n

\"\"So what\u2019s happened is, a bunch of doctors and nutritionists have been able to isolate the material, element, whatever that makes this possible and they put it in a spray that human beings use under the tongue. It\u2019s called Sublingual. For those of you in Rio Linda, Sublingual, see, the tongue is how we speak, i.e., language, lingual, sub means under. So when something is sublingual it\u2019s under the tongue and that\u2019s because things are absorbed into the bloodstream faster there than anywhere, certainly faster than gastrointestinally.<\/p>\n

So Ray Lewis with a categorical denial that he\u2019s ever used deer antler spray. He\u2019s got a triceps injury that he wanted to come back early from. It\u2019s his last year and he wanted to play in the odds that they made the Super Bowl, and they did so he wanted to make sure he could play. So the allegation is he\u2019s using deer antler spray because it\u2019s a performing-enhancing drug and human growth hormone enhances recovery. He says (paraphrasing), “I\u2019ve been tested every year, 17 years, I never failed a test.” Where have we heard that? We heard that from Lance Armstrong. We heard that from what\u2019s her name, the sprinter, Marion Jones.<\/p>\n

Here\u2019s the thing. This is the problem. Well, it\u2019s not a problem. Nothing\u2019s gonna happen. You can only, from what I have discovered, you can only detect deer antler spray — this is important for those of you young athletes out there who are gonna try this, and you know you will. You can only detect deer antler spray in the blood.<\/p>\n

You can\u2019t detect it in urine, and the NFL doesn\u2019t draw blood for tests. Everything\u2019s a urine test. So it won\u2019t show up. So even if he has been using deer antler spray, there\u2019s no way it would ever show up. This isn\u2019t gonna go anywhere because there\u2019s not gonna be any way anybody can establish, unless the deer gives up the goods.<\/p>\n

Ray Lewis has got a simple explanation or answer for all this. What difference does it make? At this point, what difference does it make? About Atlanta in 2000 and whatever happened in the nightclub — and the deer antler spray, what difference does it make? Hey, it worked for Hillary. If it worked for Hillary, it\u2019s bound to work for somebody like Ray Lewis.<\/p>\n

TODD: I was just talking with the folks at EIB about this. “What difference, at this point, does it make?” What about the people who bet on this horse? Wow! Just imagine your home counting your winnings and it turns out the horse is drug addict, and you didn\u2019t win on this. Do you have to give the money back? I\u2019d assume you\u2019d have to give the money back. That\u2019s an interesting case.<\/p>\n

Presumably you didn\u2019t drug the horse unless maybe you, as one of the fans of the horse, gave it deer antler. But let\u2019s flip what Rush just did, taking the Lewis controversy and comparing it to Hillary and let\u2019s reverse-engineer that. So tests designed to not find things. So if deer antler shows up in the urine but not blood and if you don\u2019t test blood, you\u2019re not going to find the artifacts of deer antler.<\/p>\n

Oh! It\u2019s a brilliant example of the swamp.<\/p>\n

\"\"The ethics investigations are not designed to find ethics improprieties. Note to Republicans: You\u2019re in a war, a Cold Civil War over the country. You guys have both had this agreement for years. You know it and I know it: “You don\u2019t come after ours; we won\u2019t go after yours.” They\u2019ve gone after Rudy Giuliani. They\u2019re showing you, “Oh, we\u2019ll go banana republic.”<\/p>\n

How about this? You know where their ethical bodies are buried? How about take that to right-wing media? How about bring that to us? We all know the leftists who are using the power of Big Government to force people to purchase products they don\u2019t want from companies they don\u2019t like at prices they cannot afford for services they do not need. That\u2019s Obamacare, soon to be other things.<\/p>\n

We all know there\u2019s money in the back of it. Why are you not bringing this to us? Well, because you don\u2019t want the left bringing yours to leftist media. The systems in D.C. are designed to not find these things. Just like, to bring it back to Hillary Clinton, they didn\u2019t want to find Hillary Clinton guilty of national security violations. So they allowed the literal hammering away at the devices they wanted to find.<\/p>\n

They said, the two so-called investigators who went after General Flynn, they wanted to get him to lie. There\u2019s people still in solitary confinement in Washington, D.C., as I understand it, for the January 6th event, and perhaps they deserve it. Perhaps the government has evidence that I\u2019m not aware of, although I doubt it. They don\u2019t want Black Lives Matter, Inc., and Antifa in prison. They\u2019re designing tests that don\u2019t do that.<\/p>\n

They don\u2019t even need to say, “What difference, at this point, does it make?”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
