Stock Market Hits Record High — Fueled by Apple and Tax Reform Expectations
RUSH: The people who are benefiting from this massive run-up in the stock market are actually people that did not vote for Trump and do not support Trump. Just a little dichotomy.

Trump’s Legal Immigration Plan Triggers Another Media Conniption Fit

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.

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.
Thank You to Joseph Farah — And All of You Who’ve Sent Anniversary Wishes

Jared Kushner Tells the Truth About Middle East Peace
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.

The Fix to White House “Chaos”? Enact the Trump Agenda!
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.

Republicans Are in the Midst of the Biggest Blown Political Opportunity in My Lifetime
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.

Did Kelly Really Call Comey?
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.
