RUSH: The GOP, you and me, we're the infidels, and the Democrats are the Sharia Islam believers. And they're not interested in what we think just like Sharia Islam doesn't care what you think. Your ideas and your heart and your mind don't matter one hell of a bit. And that's where we are.
RUSH: He walked off the first tee and has withdrawn, and that's the only spoiler alert that I'm gonna provide you.
RUSH: PolitiFact has had to retract a story they categorized as "mostly true" three years ago, and this story is big. Three years ago, Barack Obama and his Regime were an abject disaster. But they were claiming success after success after success, particularly in the Middle East. One of the things that the Obama administration was celebrating was that they had completely removed chemical weapons from Syria.
RUSH: Folks, I'm gonna tell you something. I was chatting with a friend last night. I think that there is a very simple — and I alluded to it yesterday. I think there's a very simple explanation for a lot of this coverage, and it is that Trump is kicking butt.
RUSH: The broadcast engineer as the break began, said, "You, of course, have the GQ article blaming you for the creation of the term 'cuck'?" I said, "What? I've only seen it once, and I forgot the definition. Today I'm asking people if they know what it means." "Well, the GQ article implies that you created it." So the broadcast engineer sent it to me.
RUSH: Based on Fox News reporting, the information was shared beyond Rice, but it is not clear if those who received it had a 'need to know.'" So the question is: Who told her to do it? Who asked her to request the unmasking? And then who, therefore, did she report to after getting the data that she got on people? This is potentially bigger than Watergate stuff, the way this is all falling out.
RUSH: It was Trump who told me this, folks. So that’s my source… The president always goes through a doorway first. And he said he still feels uncomfortable with it, but he does it because that’s what’s required.
RUSH: She's got a point here, folks. Congress can determine the number of people on the court any time they want to embark on changing the rule.
RUSH: The way to understand this filibuster business is very simple: All that is happening today is that the Senate is being returned to the rules that lasted for 100 years prior to 2003.
RUSH: The vice president has been involved in this at a very high level from the get-go, and I don't think it's anything different that he's involved in it now. It's good that Pence is involved in this.
RUSH: Do you think Adam Schiff, Pencil Neck, would resign if the Democrats ran this committee and if there were ethics complaints?
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.
