Top-secret stuff, Rush?  What\u2019s going on here?&#8221;  The New York Times has a story that says she\u2019s under investigation by virtue of leaks, and then the Department of Justice says, &#8220;No, it\u2019s not true,&#8221; and the New York Times walks it back.  But it was true.  I tell you what I think.  I think this is big.  I think this is problematic for her.  I think she\u2019s got two problems today. <\/p>\n<p>She\u2019s got this e-mail server problem, and she\u2019s also got the polling data in New Hampshire. Have you seen this?  Bernie Sanders is surging.  He is up seven points over Hillary Clinton in New Hampshire, 44-37.  This is starting to be a replay of 2008, folks.  It\u2019s just amazing here.  I tell you, I said yesterday &#8212; I was making a joke!   You know, I was being jocular yesterday and laughing and chuckling here saying that it\u2019s not Bernie Sanders\u2019 overwhelmingly popular personality and charisma that\u2019s generating all the support.  It\u2019s that people hate Hillary. <\/p>\n<p><img id=\"eZObject_109562\" class=\"aligncenter\" align=\"middle\" src=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/Bernie-And-Hillary-thumb-2B.jpg\"\/><BR\/>You go back to 2008, and maybe what\u2019s the common denominator is someone steals the coronation from Hillary Clinton. Here comes Bernie Sanders really, really out of nowhere, and he\u2019s surging ahead of Hillary, and <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/?p=5653\">what\u2019s the common denominator in this is Hillary<\/a>. It seems like the only people who haven\u2019t gotten the message that she is to be coronated is Democrat voters.  And then you have the e-mail problem over here.<\/line><\/p>\n<p>I think&#8230; You know, I just got my formerly nicotine-stained fingers on the actual release statement from the inspectors general of the intelligence community. When you read this and hear this being discussed on TV and so forth &#8212; which I shall share with you in moments &#8212; the money stuff from this is potentially really serious stuff.  I mean, we now have the specter, the uniqueness of a candidate for the presidency under criminal investigation.  We just haven\u2019t been here before. <\/p>\n<p>Now, I\u2019m gonna scattershot this before I come back here and assemble it all together, \u2019cause I\u2019m trying to answer a bunch of questions people have asked me randomly. &#8220;Rush, why did they wait so long to get the server?  I mean, why\u2019d they wait?  Normally, wouldn\u2019t the FBI van be over at her house with a search warrant and just grab that server once the allegation has been made that there are classified, Top-secret documents on that server?  What is this waiting around for her to turn it over stuff?&#8221; <\/p>\n<p>You know, it\u2019s hard to say definitively, philosophical explanation for how the Department of Justice operates because this one\u2019s run by Obama.  And so that means it\u2019s been profoundly politicized.  But in a normal ebb and flow of things, Department of Justice lawyers and even district the United States attorneys have &#8212; at least judging by recent experience &#8212;  been reluctant to hand down indictments or announce charges during a campaign because they don\u2019t want to be accused of politicizing. <\/p>\n<p>They wait until after an election, and then they dump what they\u2019ve got.  They announce charges, file an indictment, hand one up, whatever.  The reason is, they don\u2019t want to be accused of entering the political process and affecting the outcome.  Now, that\u2019s DOJs prior to Obama.  We don\u2019t know what this DOJ is&#8230; Well, we do.  We know that this DOJs been entirely politicized, and so that theory could be out the window with this the Department of Justice. <\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s kind of like these two guys, Heilemann and Halperin. They write these books during the campaign and they hold everything they learn until after the election in order to sell their book. But if they released what they\u2019d learned, and some of it\u2019s blockbuster stuff, it would have affected the outcome of elections.  And we\u2019ve always said, &#8220;Why are you holding it, guys?  You\u2019re journalists!  You\u2019re finding out things, and you\u2019re keeping it from the voters.&#8221; <\/p>\n<p><a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/?p=5653\"><img id=\"eZObject_109552\" class=\"aligncenter\" align=\"middle\" src=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/HillaryCommonDenominator-b2.jpg\"\/><\/a>And they say, &#8220;Yeah, because we want to sell books and get rich like you!&#8221;  Well, they don\u2019t say that, but everybody knows what the objective is. Well, the DOJ is kind of the same, and US attorneys are kind of the same way: Not wanting to be accused of affecting the outcome of things.  Now, this circumstance has politics all over it.  There\u2019s some things that we know.  We know that there is no love lost between Obama and the Clintons, both of them.  That\u2019s undeniable.  It\u2019s not a matter of speculation. <\/p>\n<p>We also know that both sides keep each other at arm\u2019s-length.  I mean, both sides know what the other is capable of, and so there is a mutual sort of respect.  Neither side\u2019s gonna make an overt move to take the other one out unless they can be guaranteed to do it.  The old saw about, &#8220;You don\u2019t take a shot at the king unless you know you\u2019re gonna hit bull\u2019s-eye.&#8221;  So we are left to try to analyze this without having the benefit of getting very deep in terms of actual knowledge and facts. <\/p>\n<p>Now, do you remember, last week, the New York Times reported two inspectors general had asked the Department of Justice to do a criminal investigation of Hillary\u2019s e-mails? And then do you remember how the New York Times had to walk that report back because the DOJ denied it? There was no investigation, and the New York Times reported (summarized), &#8220;But we\u2019ve been told! We\u2019ve got leaks; we\u2019ve got sources.&#8221;  DOJ said, &#8220;Sorry, you have been misled,&#8221; and the New York Times walked it back. <\/p>\n<p>Even though their reporters and their editor all swore that they had multiple sources and even confirmation from the Department of Justice.  Do you also remember how some people wondered at the time if maybe the Obama White House didn\u2019t get on the phone and tell the DOJ to change its tune and to hold up and stop this investigation?  Now, what if that\u2019s actually what happened?  What if Obama got on the phone and told the DOJ, &#8220;Hey, you guys gotta deny that; you gotta walk this back&#8221;?<\/p>\n<p>In the process what does that do?  That kind of convinces Hillary that nobody\u2019s gonna come after her.  That could telegraph a message that she\u2019s safe and that she can trust the DOJ and the rest of the Regime with her server.  At that point, we get her reversal.  At that point, we get Hillary\u2019s decision change her mind and turn over the server.  Otherwise, the timing of this is really, really confusing.  And now after the DOJ tells Hillary and the New York Times and everybody, &#8220;There\u2019s no story here; there\u2019s no investigation,&#8221; the next thing we know&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>By the way, they still don\u2019t have that server.  An agreement\u2019s been made or an arrangement, but they don\u2019t have it yet, from what I\u2019m told.  They\u2019ve got a thumb drive.  They know that there are at least&#8230; I\u2019ll read the statement here to you. They\u2019ve got &#8220;evidence that there are classified documents on her server that go all the way up to top secret.&#8221;  So this is now a serious criminal investigation.  I have suspected this, because of what I said here at the beginning that Obama and the Clintons have to keep each other arm\u2019s distance. <\/p>\n<p><a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/?p=5796\"><img id=\"eZObject_109550\" class=\"aligncenter\" align=\"middle\" src=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/HillaryFace-Democrat-7-24b.jpg\"\/><\/a>Obama can\u2019t move in for the kill here for obvious reasons. But he could do a drip, drip, drip.  You know, every day a little bit more news shows up about Hillary\u2019s server and her e-mails and what\u2019s on it, and this drip, drip, drip continues to create doubt, doubt, doubt in the minds of your average, ordinary news consumer, particularly readers of the New York Times. And there\u2019s nothing Hillary can do about that because she can\u2019t prove anything and she can\u2019t deny it.<\/p>\n<p>She can\u2019t accuse Obama of doing this because Obama\u2019s walked it back or the DOJ has walked it all back.  And then there\u2019s another theory.  This is what has been described as &#8220;the tinfoil hat theory,&#8221; and it is this.  Yes, there are top-secret documents on the server of Hillary Clinton among her e-mails.  What if there is also something about Obama on this server in an e-mail or something that he doesn\u2019t want anybody to know.  So you go get the server, you get it in your possession, and then nobody hears anything about it for quite a while.<\/p>\n<p>I mean, we\u2019ve got the &#8212; what\u2019d they used to call it back then &#8212; the appearance of impropriety? Mr. Snerdley, do you remember that?  Whenever the Republicans were dancing out there on the edge of anything, the media and the left always referred to &#8220;an appearance of impropriety.&#8221;  Well, we\u2019ve got even more than that with Mrs. Clinton.  She\u2019s in real trouble over this. She\u2019s lied.  She has lied, said there\u2019s nothing on the server. She says there\u2019s nothing classified on the server, that she looked at it.<\/p>\n<p>She picked out 30,000 e-mails and withheld them but about yoga and her daughter\u2019s wedding.  You know, has anybody looked at the Hillary lately? Does she look like she\u2019s doing a lot of yoga?  Thirty-thousand e-mails worth of it?  Not to me.  But she\u2019s openly lied about this.  And then over here you got Bernie Sanders just surging.  And just a little sidelight about this, \u2019cause all of this is gonna pave the way either for Uncle Joe Biden to come in or Lurch, John Kerry, who definitely wants to throw his hat in this ring. <\/p>\n<p>And there\u2019s that aspect of this, too.  You take a look now at the Democrat presidential primary and who are the two front-runners here?  An aging, frumpy, Nurse Ratched kind of non-charismatic, stern-looking woman. And over here a guy that looks like he\u2019s 85 years old bounding about, being thrown off the stage by #BlackLivesMatter protesters. We\u2019re told the Democrat Party\u2019s the party of youth and hip and cool and all of this, and yet the best thing they can come up with is a couple of dinosaurs.<\/p>\n<p>Who both happen to be white.<\/p>\n<p>Who both happen to be Marxists to one degree or another. <\/p>\n<p>Where is the youth? Where is the hip? Where is the cool? <\/p>\n<p>BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  Now, one more thing a lot of people want to know.  If they don\u2019t have the server or&#8230; Forget that.  Last week we heard about this, and the week before that we heard about all this, and yet nobody went to get the server.  They didn\u2019t seize the server, and all kinds of legal experts were posting blogs expressing shock and dismay that the Department of Justice or the FBI had not sent the van, the evidence van over there to the Chappaqua compound to pick up the server. <\/p>\n<p><img id=\"eZObject_109551\" class=\"aligncenter\" align=\"middle\" src=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/HillaryEmailDrudge585.jpg\"\/><BR\/>Well, there is a little problem there, folks.  Remember, now, we\u2019re talking about the home of a former president the United States.  I don\u2019t care&#8230; We\u2019re all equal before the law, but former presidents are more equal than the rest of us, and one of the things they have is Secret Service protection.  There are Secret Service people surrounding that compound.  They are inside that compound.  The FBI, can you imagine showing up with their evidence van and they\u2019ve got a warrant to go in there and get that server?<\/line><\/p>\n<p>And the Secret Service says, &#8220;I don\u2019t care what you\u2019ve got. You\u2019re not getting in this house.  Our job is to protect this house, and you can\u2019t get in here,&#8221; and then you\u2019ve got a battle. Both are run by the Treasury department. They\u2019re both executive branch. But then you\u2019ve got a battle between the Secret Service and the FBI.  I\u2019m speculating on this.  I mean, this could be nothing, but it could be an explanation for why there has not been an aggressive move to go get the server. <\/p>\n<p>But I do not believe that Mrs. Clinton has had a reversal of thought and been shamed into giving up the server.  I don\u2019t think that\u2019s it, \u2019cause you can\u2019t shame the Clintons, and there are no coincidences with the Clintons.  I think the idea that she\u2019s gonna give up the server is an indication of the seriousness of the legal problem that she\u2019s got&#8230; And I don\u2019t know, by the way, if she\u2019d even look at it that way.  I have no clue how these people live their lives. <\/p>\n<p>You know, I have no idea what Bill Clinton and Hillary Clinton might think with the DOJ coming after them. If they think, &#8220;It\u2019s all for show. Nobody\u2019s gonna touch us. We\u2019re untouchable. But people have to do this. They have to go through the motions of making it look like they\u2019re coming after us. But at the end of the day, we know they won\u2019t.&#8221; I don\u2019t know how they process this stuff.  A normal person when the DOJ is coming after you, it\u2019s the worst day of your life.<\/p>\n<p>You get scared to death, and if you didn\u2019t do it the only you want to do you go get a lawyer and you want to start cooperating the best you can.  If you did do it, you go get a lawyer and you shut up and try to give the illusion of cooperation.  But the Clintons, I have no idea.  I do not share a mind-set with them.  I understand a lot of their psychology, but when the law\u2019s coming after you? I mean, these people used to be in charge of the law. <\/p>\n<p>Don\u2019t forget Mrs. Clinton apparently called Secret Service agents &#8220;pigs&#8221; because her daughter Chelsea picked up on it. She also calls \u2019em pigs, and there have been several Secret Service agents reveal this in books and articles following their service at the White House.  So my only point is, I don\u2019t really know if Mrs. Clinton thinks that she\u2019s in jeopardy or not, and if she does think she\u2019s in jeopardy or realizes it, I don\u2019t know if she\u2019s taking it seriously.<\/p>\n<p>Or thinks it\u2019s just part of the process \u2019cause she\u2019s a Clinton and there\u2019s powerful forces, a right-wing conspiracy out to get her. I have no idea. But just looking at this in your good, old-fashioned standard common-sensical way, you have to say she\u2019s in trouble, that this is serious.  Especially when you see what the Inspectors General of the Intelligence Community have released here, which I\u2019m not teasing you with this. <\/p>\n<p>BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  Okay, here\u2019s the Statement from the Inspectors General of the Intelligence Community and the Department of State Regarding the Review of Former Secretary Clinton\u2019s Emails. This is dated back in July, by the way.  This all the way back July 24th.  Keep that in mind.  But seeing this in print&#8230; This how old this is, July 24th. This is August 12th.  Now, look, I know, I know, I know, I know. Some of you think all this is smoke and mirrors and that everything that\u2019s happened here is to protect Hillary.<\/p>\n<p><img id=\"eZObject_109556\" class=\"alignright\" align=\"right\" src=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/HillaryClinton_iraq_970-630x420_large.jpg\"\/><BR\/>Now, and you could be right.  But that would mean that Obama is engaged in the protection mechanism, and I just don\u2019t believe that.  I don\u2019t think Obama wants her to be president.  I don\u2019t think Obama wants her at the levers that could change or dismantle what he thinks the greatest legacy in the history of presidencies.  I don\u2019t think there\u2019s any love lost.  And I think this drip, drip, drip of information about this that\u2019s come out, the leaks that were supposedly true turned out to not be true, I think it\u2019s all been designed to chip away at her support and character and to start raise and create doubts about her.<\/line><\/p>\n<p>You have to say that if that\u2019s what\u2019s going on, it\u2019s working. All you gotta do is look at Bernie Sanders and say, &#8220;Who?  Bernie Sanders is drawing these crowds?&#8221;  I\u2019ve even got a post in the Washington Post today talking about Bernie Sanders drawing crowds of a hundred thousand people.  And the guy writing the post says, &#8220;That doesn\u2019t mean anything,&#8221; and then pretends or proceeds to explain why carouse of awe hundred thousand people don\u2019t mean anything. <\/p>\n<p>Now, the Washington Post is trying to protect Hillary; there\u2019s no question. The New York Times, probably, too. But they ran that first leak about all of this and then they were humiliated into retracting it, and they\u2019ve gotta be burning over there because they were right the first time.  Okay. &#8220;Yesterday&#8230;&#8221; This is back on July 24th. &#8220;Yesterday, &#8220;the Office of the Inspector General of the Intelligence Community (IC IG) sent a congressional notification to intelligence oversight committees updating them of the IC IG support to the State Department IG (attached).<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The IC IG found four e-mails containing classified IC-derived information in a limited sample of 40 e-mails of the 30,000 e-mails provided by former Secretary Clinton. The four e-mails, which have not been released through the State FOIA process,&#8221; Freedom of Information Act, &#8220;did not contain classification markings and\/or dissemination controls. These e-mails were not retroactively classified by the State Department; rather these e-mails contained classified information when they were generated&#8230;&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>She lied through her teeth about that!<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;These e-mails &#8230; contained classified information when they were generated,&#8221; for those of you in Rio Linda, that means written, &#8220;and, according to IC classification officials, that information remains classified today.&#8221; She stuff she wrote about is still classified! &#8220;This classified information should never have been transmitted via an unclassified personal system.&#8221; Now, you can say that the DOJ is trying to shield Hillary, but that\u2019s who\u2019s writing this, or who wrote this, and is explaining how egregious a violation this is, or was. <\/p>\n<p><img id=\"eZObject_109557\" class=\"aligncenter\" align=\"middle\" src=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/HillaryServers.jpg\"\/><BR\/>Inspectors General of the Intelligence Community &#8220;made a referral detailing the potential compromise of classified information to security officials within the Executive Branch,&#8221; going back here to July 24th. &#8220;The main purpose of the referral was to notify security officials that classified information may exist on at least one private server and thumb drive that are not in the government\u2019s possession.&#8221; So, we\u2019ve seen news reports about this.  But when you read this, the inspectors general actual statement released&#8230;<\/line><\/p>\n<p>You look back, it\u2019s July 24th, and still today they don\u2019t have the server.  Now, you may have a heard that they know what\u2019s on, but they don\u2019t have it.  And some of the e-mails that they found that she turned over they found this stuff.  This is a total cluster here, folks. &#8220;The main purpose of the referral was to notify security officials that classified information may exist on at least one private server and thumb drive,&#8221; that\u2019d be Hillary\u2019s, &#8220;that are not in the government\u2019s possession.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;An important distinction is that the IC IG did not make a criminal referral &#8212; it was a security referral made for counterintelligence purposes. The IC IG is statutorily required to refer potential compromises of national security information to the appropriate IC security officials.&#8221; It has become criminal now.  Back on July 24th they just made a security referral but now it has become a criminal referral. <\/p>\n<p>To the audio sound bites.  Here\u2019s Mrs. Clinton March 10th in New York City.  Remember that press conference at the UN she did when all of this first surfaced that she had this server and she was running her own e-mail program, her own domain? She had all that private server, private e-mail \u2019cause she didn\u2019t want the government to know what she was doing. That\u2019s when the stories came out that she was selling access by way of donations to her Crime Family Foundation on the come. <\/p>\n<p>She was accepting donations from foreign governments.  The clear reason would be they think they\u2019re investing\/donating\/contributing to a future president.  And so the seeds of a scandal were planted.  Mrs. Clinton had to head it off at the pass.  She happened to be in New York, so she decided to go to the UN and do the press conference there because it was assumed that the United Nations press corps would not be as up to speed on the story because they don\u2019t cover Hillary daily. <\/p>\n<p>So they thought it\u2019d be a cakewalk, and at this press conference she ended up making a fool of herself.  She was totally unprepared, as usual, and had to slink out of there.  It backfired on \u2019em, and this is an excerpt from that press conference.  It\u2019s 14 seconds, so here it is.<\/p>\n<p>HILLARY:  The server contains, uhh, personal communications from my husband and me, and, um&#8230; I &#8212; I believe I have met all of my responsibilities, and the server, umm, will remain, uh, private.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  &#8220;Uh, the server, uh, will remain private, uh, personal communications from my husband and me and um, I believe I\u2019ve met&#8230;&#8221; &#8220;The IC IG found four e-mails containing classified IC-derived information in a limited sample of 40 e-mails &#8230; The four e-mails &#8230; were not retroactively classified by the State Department &#8230; These e-mails &#8230; contained classified information when they were generated and, according to IC classification officials, that information remains classified today.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>And then we learned yesterday it\u2019s top secret. That was the classification. On March 10th, she\u2019s lying about it. &#8220;Oh, there\u2019s nothing on there but yoga, Chelsea\u2019s wedding and where she was registered, where that was, for the wedding and so forth. Nothing to see here.&#8221;  She lied through her teeth.  Trey Gowdy this morning, Fox America\u2019s Newsroom, Bill Hemmer says, &#8220;Okay, the inspector general says top-secret e-mails were on her server, private server.  What are your questions now?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>GOWDY:  Is the public record complete?  Every explanation that Secretary Clinton has provided, about a week later was proven to be demonstrably false.  This is just the latest one of those assertions, that she neither sent nor received classified information.  Well (chuckles), that is patently false.  But what I\u2019m primarily concerned is whether or not I\u2019m gonna have access to the records that I need to do the job that the House asked me to do.  And, as you know, she is turning over her server &#8212; which I find to be an interesting choice of words.  The Bureau usually doesn\u2019t ask you to do things.  They demand that it happen.  But she wiped the server clean.  So what are we gonna be able to get from the server?  And her lawyer self-selected the public record from the private record.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  Except they\u2019ve got those four e-mails. They\u2019ve got something.  And there\u2019s the thumb drive.  But his point her is, &#8220;What do you mean she\u2019s going to turn it over? That\u2019s what everybody\u2019s been saying.  Why don\u2019t they just go get the thing?  Why doesn\u2019t the FBI evidence van pull in with the search warrant, go in there and secure the server, which they would do with any other target, person of interest, whatever?&#8221; That\u2019s why I think, you know, the FBI would have to go through the Secret Service.  I don\u2019t know who would be up for something like that.  Judge Napolitano on Fox believes that Hillary\u2019s in grave danger because of this. On America\u2019s Newsroom today he was asked, &#8220;How serious is this?  Is there an obstruction case here, Judge Napolitano?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>NAPOLITANO:  Legally, I believe she is in grave jeopardy if she is charged with failure to protect these secrets. She will not be permitted to tell a jury, &#8220;It was a mistake! I didn\u2019t know it was a secret, because the word &#8216;secret\u2019 was not stamped on it.&#8221;  Those are not defenses in a case like this.  Why not?  Because before she became secretary of state she was required to go through a one-hour tutorial given by FBI agents, at the end of which you had to sign a statement under oath in which she recognized that she had an absolute duty to protect national security secrets. And in the face of that duty, she ran them through her server, which was unsecured.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  Now, keep in mind that one of the assertions here in the IG report is that she generated these e-mails.  It clearly says here &#8220;contained classified information when they were generated.&#8221; Now, that could mean generated by the person sending them to her or generated by her, the original sender. It could mean any number of things.  E-mails wouldn\u2019t necessarily be stamped top secret, I guess.<\/p>\n<p>But, anyway, he\u2019s saying it\u2019s no excuse, and we\u2019ll just have to wait and see.  I\u2019m like a lot of people; I can\u2019t see this ever really materializing into something political that leads to her be indicted and jailed or anything like that. But I can see this having and continuing to have a deleterious effect on her campaign, because we are talking about somebody&#8230; We\u2019ve not been here before, and I know (laughing) we have arrived at a lot of places now that we\u2019ve not been before in our lifetimes. <\/p>\n<p>And I know, an oath in this administration is meaningless many cases.  I mean, a lot of people in the Obama administration have taken oaths that they have violated.  So I understand all that, folks.  But you still have a candidate for the presidency under criminal investigation.  That\u2019s something you usually see after an election or after a candidate drops out or loses.<\/p>\n<p>BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  Starting on the phones in Detroit today.  This is Steve.  Steve, welcome, sir.  Nice to have you with us.  I\u2019m glad you called.  Hi.<\/p>\n<p><img id=\"eZObject_109559\" class=\"alignright\" align=\"right\" src=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/RushClintons3.jpg\"\/><BR\/>CALLER:  Thanks, Rush.  Great to be here.  So I believe that these bullets she\u2019s taking now on the obstruction or on the sending of the classified e-mails are just that. They\u2019re bullets. They\u2019re gonna wound her severely. But I do believe the bullet that\u2019s gonna put her down for good lies within the content of the 10 thousands of e-mails.  Anyone with half a brain knows the reason she wanted to use a private e-mail address and server when she very well could have just used the one given to her by the government is because she wanted to send contents that she didn\u2019t want to have inspected and looked at.  We\u2019re talking about &#8212;<\/line><\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  This is true.  This is very, very true.  Very brilliant observation.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER:  So inside those 10 thousands of e-mails I can speculate that, you know, you don\u2019t operate the Clinton cash globally without a whole lot of strategy and direction and coordination, e-mails out to her minions, the political hacks that are sitting inside the Clinton Foundation.  God knows what\u2019s in those e-mails, but we know that they\u2019re e-mails she didn\u2019t want to flow through the White House. <\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  Now, would you repeat again what do you think the&#8230;? I\u2019ll change term, &#8220;bullet.&#8221; We\u2019ll change that around. We\u2019ll call it &#8220;the Wizard&#8221; just like they did in Washington, the Bullets to the Wizards.  What do you think the wizard is that\u2019s gonna bring her down?<\/p>\n<p>CALLER:  I have no idea specifically what it is, but I believe it\u2019s inside the content of those tens of thousands of e-mails are things she did as far as foreign donations &#8212;<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  But wait a minute.  You don\u2019t think there\u2019s gonna actually be a criminal prosecution?  How\u2019s it be gonna find out?<\/p>\n<p>CALLER:  Because now that they\u2019ve got the server, they can go back and retrieve the contents of those e-mails and actually read what she was sending.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  What have you heard? It\u2019s been wiped.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER:  It doesn\u2019t matter.  I work in IT. That\u2019s what I do. I own a software consulting firm.  They can retrieve those e-mails. If they were ever sent to there, they could get a hundred percent of them.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  Well, they gotta be somewhere, even if she didn\u2019t wipe her server. Even if she really, really wiped it &#8212; I don\u2019t mean just deleted \u2019em, if she really wiped them &#8212; they got sent someplace.  Somebody has \u2019em.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER:  The recipients have them, right?<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  Well, it\u2019s just a repeat of 2008, only worse.  I mean, here you had Obama came out of nowhere and at least half the media just abandoned Hillary and went for the guy. Half Democrat Party abandoned her, and we didn\u2019t even have a scandal like this.  Now we\u2019ve got her under criminal investigation.  All of this e-mail stuff and whatever else drip, drip, drip negative is.  And over here, Bernie Sanders burning and tearing the place up. <\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s a combination of these two that are really making people think that she\u2019s now toast, in terms of winning the Democrat Party nomination.  And I\u2019ve got people arguing again, &#8220;Come on, Rush! Don\u2019t fall for that. She\u2019s Hillary Clinton.  They\u2019re gonna give it to her this time.  All of this is just a bunch of made-up BS designed to get people sandbagged into thinking she\u2019s toast.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;She\u2019s gonna come back when nobody\u2019s look she\u2019s gonna roar strong and take Sanders out, and she\u2019s gonna be there.&#8221; A lot of people have this perpetual fear that Hillary Clinton is unbeatable. I guess it\u2019s ongoing and never ending.  But if you look at real life and practical history, and find out it did happen in 2008, and there are things beginning to repeat themselves here.  Larry in Waurika Lake, Oklahoma, it\u2019s great to have you on the EIB Network, sir.  Hello.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER:  Hi, Rush. Thanks for taking my call.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  You bet.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER:  I look forward to tapping into your vast wisdom and knowledge.   <\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  Okay.<\/p>\n<p><img id=\"eZObject_109558\" class=\"aligncenter\" align=\"middle\" src=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/LoisLernerEmails.jpg\"\/><BR\/>CALLER:  I ask for your analysis on a different perspective of Hillary and the DOJ.  I don\u2019t believe they are gonna investigate her; I believe they\u2019re gonna protect her.  And here\u2019s why.  We\u2019ve got a federal judge that\u2019s serious about looking into her e-mail situation with that server.  And she just signed yesterday a document that may place her in perjury before that judge, a judge that her husband appointed.  Now, what does this do for the administration? <\/line><\/p>\n<p>Well, when the reporters go in for the briefing at the White House and they ask Josh Earnest for a White House comment. What\u2019s he gonna say?  &#8220;We refer you to the Justice Department.&#8221;  When they go to the Justice Department to ask them questions about it, what are they gonna say?  &#8220;We don\u2019t discuss ongoing investigations.&#8221;  They investigated Lois Lerner.  What happened?  The woman retired and she\u2019s receiving our tax dollars in her retirement pay every month.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  By the way, yeah, yeah. That\u2019s a whole &#8216;nother story, by the way, Lois Lerner. We found out that she did authorize one conservative group as tax-exempt, only one in those three years.  Yeah, that\u2019s a good analogy.  I understand that.  But there still is an impact, a news impact, even if there is a protection scheme that\u2019s unfolding here. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>RUSH: Everybody who knows me is asking, &#8220;What is with this Hillary e-mail stuff?
