GOP lawmakers are trying to knock this stuff out of the schools, which the media is presenting as &#8220;GOP seeks to limit discussions on race and racism.&#8221; Unh-uh. Critical race theory limits discussions on race and racism, because critical race theory says, &#8220;Only white people are racist, unless you\u2019re &#8216;white adjacent\u2019 Asian,&#8221; which is a whole &#8216;nother topic.<\/p>\n<p>So I\u2019m glad to see parents standing up. Fred Rege, a Loudoun County, Virginia, parent &#8212; who also happens to be black &#8212; explains why he\u2019s opposed to CRT.<\/p>\n<p>REGE: The idea that I\u2019m an African-American young male and these things have been done to my ancestors and to me and it\u2019s here to stay, it\u2019s ingrained in the fiber of our country &#8212; and that ingrained part means that it can\u2019t be done away with, which is an excuse for failure. It\u2019s a very dangerous ideology. And for the white kids, it\u2019s, you know, &#8220;What did I do wrong? Am I responsible for this?&#8221; You know, that guilt, it\u2019s a very destructive theory.<\/p>\n<p>TODD: It is. &#8220;Rege is one of a growing number of parents banding together to support Fight for Schools, a political action committee opposed to CRT. The group is spearheaded by Ian Prior, a former Trump administration DOJ official and father of two children in Loudoun County public schools.&#8221; None of this is helped when Joe Biden actually manages to speak a full sentence, but in doing so, the premise is the biggest threat to the United States.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-399328\" src=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/APP-20201-052521-Biden-3.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/APP-20201-052521-Biden-3.jpg 640w, https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/APP-20201-052521-Biden-3-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/APP-20201-052521-Biden-3-480x270.jpg 480w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>BIDEN: As I said in my address (slurring) to the Joint Session of Congress, according to the intelligence community, terrorism from white supremacy is the most lethal threat to the homeland today. Not ISIS, not Al-Qaeda, white supremacists.<\/p>\n<p>FOLLOWERS: (applause)<\/p>\n<p>TODD: Yes. I do remember all those cities burned and cops killed at the hands of White Lives Matter, that domestic group. It was horrifying. And White Lives Matter chanting, &#8220;What do we want? Dead cops! When do we want it? Now!&#8221; Horrifying. Oh! No! Sorry. Damn it! Like I said, I\u2019m just a rodeo clown just trying to do my best to host a radio show. That was Black Lives Matter Inc., a group that doesn\u2019t care the least about black lives.<\/p>\n<p>Now, just to be fair, Biden may well think it\u2019s true what he read or said. Because in Biden\u2019s defense, he may think white supremacists of America &#8212; because he himself is apparently a white supremacist, or maybe just his dementia is, because Joe Biden believes black people are incapable of hiring accountants.<\/p>\n<p>BIDEN: Instead of denying millions of entrepreneurs the ability to access capital and &#8212; and &#8212; and contracting, we made it possible to take their dreams to the marketplace to create jobs and invest in our communities. Tha&#8230; Dat&#8230; The data shows, young black entrepreneurs are just as capable of succeeding given the chance as white entrepreneurs are, but they don\u2019t have lawyers. They don\u2019t have&#8230; They &#8212; they &#8212; they don\u2019t have accountants. But they have great ideas.<\/p>\n<p>TODD: Well, how can they get lawyers and accountants when black people can\u2019t figure out how to get an ID or use a computer? Both things that Biden has said! Remember that video? Did you ever see this video this black gentleman made? (laughing) Biden\u2019s dementia was talking about how black people can\u2019t get online to register to vote, and it\u2019s very complicated. This guy made this incredible video where he came out, shirtless, and he found a PC.<\/p>\n<p>He was batting it around, making fun of Biden. Such a brilliant video. I have to find that. So yesterday on this program, we reminded ourselves of a famous Rush axiom. When Democrats go after Republicans, &#8220;It\u2019s not the quality of the evidence. It\u2019s the seriousness of the charge.&#8221; Today, another Rushism applicable to this. For leftists, only their good intentions count.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: 1964 to the present has been almost all a march toward socialism. With people running the government, all of these good intentions, all of this compassion, all of this love and devotion for the minorities, the discriminated against, whoever it is that\u2019s been getting the short end of the stick, all of these people turned to government to have these grievances addressed, and they\u2019re madder than they\u2019ve ever been. They\u2019re unhappier than they\u2019ve ever been<\/p>\n<div id=\"zype_60b8ebbc53858e00019a4104\"><\/div>\n<p><script src=\"https:\/\/player.zype.com\/embed\/60b8ebbc53858e00019a4104.js?api_key=6yUf3WZePk78GtpC3BXdZSqZ5ma_gYmV_rEJ8OYJZ0wq3AlDKM2RFnOcBN0xiMco&amp;controls=true\" type=\"text\/javascript\"><\/script><br \/>\nAnd there have been some legitimate things that have made progress. Civil rights has made progress in this country. You wouldn\u2019t know it if you looked at people today. But it\u2019s much better in that regard than it has been, but aside from all that, why isn\u2019t there all this happiness? Why don\u2019t all these good intentions matter?<\/p>\n<p>The bottom line is, liberalism doesn\u2019t work; socialism doesn\u2019t work. It\u2019s an on-display-in-front-of-our-face failure, and the only excuse, &#8220;Well, at least we\u2019re trying. We love people. We\u2019re compassionate. We\u2019re trying to do something. Our intentions with the Great Society were to wipe out poverty. Our intentions with the War on Poverty to wipe out poverty.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Well, you failed. &#8220;Well, yeah, but we\u2019re not supposed to look at that because my intentions are what count.&#8221; But I think it\u2019s very plain as day. It\u2019s one of the sources of my frustration, because none of this is theoretical anymore. We don\u2019t have to rely on theory to tell people this doesn\u2019t work. We\u2019ve been living it since 1964.<\/p>\n<p>Actually prior to that. I just chose \u201964 as the beginning time frame because that\u2019s Johnson\u2019s Great Society. But it actually began long before that. FDR. It doesn\u2019t matter how far you go back. It doesn\u2019t work. It never has. We have the living proof right on our TV sets every day. I\u2019m gonna tell you something.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-260373\" src=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/FB-002-011218-Obama-LBJ.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/FB-002-011218-Obama-LBJ.jpg 640w, https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/FB-002-011218-Obama-LBJ-300x169.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>The Great Society has led to an ungrateful society, if you ask me, and it has led to an unmanageable society.
