Rush 24/7 Morning Update: Make Them Stop

Freak-Out Time! WH Bars CNN and Others from Press Gaggle
RUSH: It's freak-out time at CNN. Get this: Apparently the White House had a press briefing this afternoon, a gaggle, and they denied entry to CNN, The Politico, the New York Times and the LA Times. They all showed up for the gaggle and the White House said, "Sorry, you're not on the list today; you don't get in," and they had a freak-out on CNN.
Seattle Teacher Surrounded by Sea of Safety Pins
CALLER: One of my fellow teachers, I'm walking down the hall, and they're like, "Oh, would you like a safety pin?" And I'm like, "You know what? My kids know they're safe with me. I don't need to wear a safety pin to prove it," and I turned around and walked away.
There Are No More Tim Russerts in Today’s Drive-By Media
RUSH: So to Chris Cuomo, "tolerance" means a 12-year-old should want to see a naked male in the bathroom running around flouting his penis, and to oppose that is intolerant. These people are nuts, and they anchor the news! They're literally insane. What happened to these people?

CNN’s BS Story on Priebus and the FBI
RUSH: CNN doesn't even say Priebus lied. They don't allege anything. They're just playing a game here with the timeline in their headline, and trying to make like we've got a bunch of authoritarian Russian associates bending on the FBI, leaning on the FBI, to hammer the media.
What Is Conservatism in the Age of Trump?
RUSH: What really has guided me in terms of politics for a huge number of years is defeating the left. Now defeating the left with conservatism, obviously. But if it meant a slight departure here or there, defeating the left is it to me. That has to happen.
Rush 24/7 Stack of Stuff
RUSH: No longer is this just gonna be a long list of stories that I might mention on the program. Now, you will get specifically the stories that I talk about on the program and a select list of a few others that I intended to get to but ran out of time. It's going to be more of a real-time base feature rather than just a generic list of places that I go to prep the show.
Democrats Infiltrate CPAC with Russian Flags, Drive-By Media Runs With It
RUSH: Creamer gets in there somehow and he gets these flags planted and these eager beaver CPACers wave them because the flags say Trump. OK. Kudos to you, Creamer. Good trick. But the problem here is the media knows this is all BS, and they’re treating this as though it is literally true, that Trump supporters are pro-Russia.
