RUSH: Liberals who run these sanctuary cities are never held accountable for the lethal consequences of their decisions. Their sympathy is saved for those who commit these vicious crimes while in our country illegally.
RUSH: Now, on anniversaries Cookie goes back to the Grooveyard of Forgotten Sound Bites and tries to pull some things from previous programs that we can highlight and demonstrate to people who are new. Things that happened in the past on the program. She tried to make them different each year, and with 30 years, 29 years to choose from, she's come up with some new things.
CALLER: My wife and I were on our way to the Jersey Shore. I heard you talkin', and I said to my wife, "What did he say his name was?" And she said, "I think he said 'Rush.'" And I said, "Man, I don't know who he is, but I sure like what he's saying. He's saying what I'm thinkin'," and I've been listening ever since.
RUSH: I have never taken any of this for granted. I've always felt that every day I have to come in here and exceed expectations in order to continue to earn this, and today is no different. I'm actually grateful for the way I was raised, 'cause I think that's why I look at it this way.
RUSH: My principles and core beliefs haven't changed. You know, I don't change what I think with the wind just in order to perhaps attract more people. I am what I am, believe what I believe, and I say so.
RUSH: I just want to thank you for everything you've opened my eyes to, everything that you do, do not stop, do not back down. Continue, keep going. We need you.
RUSH: Members of Congress and their staff have their health care costs subsidized 73% by the taxpayers. It's run through the Office of Personnel Management. There is a rule that permits Trump to immediately wipe it out.
RUSH: I don't care if it was a leak that made it happen. It's refreshing to hear Jared Kushner say, "There may be no solution to the conflict in the Middle East." There isn't! Not the way we've been going about it. Where's the evidence that the way we've been going about it for the last 50 years has a solution? There isn't any, not a shred. Because you're never gonna convince one side to quit and give up.
RUSH: Who introduced that word in the lexicon, by the way? The Drive-By Media didn't. Statist? Whoever began to think of the Democrats this way?
RUSH: If Reince Priebus couldn't get it done, we'll see if Kelly can get it done. Meaning: Liaison with the Congress. But I'm telling you, that's the fix for all of this. Moving the agenda forward would solve the approval numbers, because I guarantee you: Once that agenda moves forward and once items in that agenda are accomplished and begin to happen, everybody in America is gonna see and benefit from it.
RUSH: The Republican Party in Congress, House and Senate, for the most part is doing what it can to stop Trump or to arrest his agenda. I really believe this. I don't think they're trying to capitalize on this at all… And it's contributing to the biggest blown opportunity in politics in my lifetime.
RUSH: This is the only place that it's been reported is CNN. … They're not close friends, yet Kelly called Comey. Kelly's a tough, rough Marine. Kelly was angry and hurt by Comey's firing, so angry and hurt he was tempted to resign. I don't know.
RUSH: Sustainability is one of the major things to Millennials… So I thought that we would put together just a short little review of the previous 29 years, highlighting the sustainability of the EIB Network.
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.
