Rush 24/7 Morning Update: Un-Rigged
RUSH: The Supreme Court has decided to take the case of Mark Janus, an Illinois state employee who objected to mandatory union fees. In his state, 35,000 government employees are represented by various unions. … Next June, the Supreme Court can finally “un-rig” this particular money-laundering scheme. That’s why unions are in full-fledged panic — as it should be!
Rush on Hannity, Part Two
RUSH: The media isn't media. When you think of media, you think they’ve got people out there looking at things where you're not and they tell you what happened. That's the news. They don't do the news. There is no news. There is the advancement of the Democrat Party agenda, which is get rid of Trump. They're totally devoted to it. The media has been corrupted by liberalism.
My Analysis of Myself on Hannity
RUSH: Cookie has sent me the audio sound bite roster with the headline: "Time for you to analyze yourself on Hannity." She says, "You know, you play audio sound bites all day long from other people, and you analyze what you hear." She said, "You need to analyze yourself." And I'm thinking, how self-indulgent can you get? And Snerdley thinks it's a great idea.
Drive-Bys Attempt to Smear Trump on Puerto Rico Response
RUSH: This is another example of the Democrat Party or the American left not being able to innovate their 30-year-old playbook. Well, now it's a 40- or 50-year-old playbook. They simply go to the right page, "How do you attack a Republican president? You wait for a disaster, claim he doesn't care. You wait for a disaster, claim he's a racist. You wait for a disaster, claim he doesn't care about the poor. You wait for a disaster, claim he has no compassion for anybody because he's a pig."
Trump’s Pitching His Tax Cut Like a Democrat
RUSH: I'm gonna tell you, if you're sitting out there in the middle class, and you're told that your tax cut is going to be paid for by somebody else's taxes going up, you should realize that doesn't mean the economy's gonna grow, and usually the people whose taxes are going up are the people you hope will hire you someday or give you a raise.
Colin Kaepernick In His Own Words
RUSH: Here’s what Kaepernick said. “I am not going to stand up to show pride in a flag for a country that oppresses black people and people of color. To me, this is bigger than football, and it would be selfish on my part to look the other way. There are bodies in the street and people getting paid leave and getting away with murder.”
Assange Wants Pardon in Exchange for Proof the Russia Collusion Narrative Is False
RUSH: He's ready to provide evidence that the Russian collusion narrative is false if he will be granted a pardon and can leave the Ecuadorian embassy in the U.K. Fat chance.
The Democrats Can’t Innovate
RUSH: The Democrat Party does not innovate. They don't have any innovators, and they don't have any forward thinkers. If the Democrat Party produced a smartphone, it would still be 30 years old. And the only thing that would change in it is the numbers of people that you can call.
Donald Trump Defeated the NFL Because the Country Isn’t What the Media Portrays It to Be
RUSH: The NFL is one of these corporate entities that’s missing its mark. I think there are people there who really believe that sideline protests of the flag and disrespect for the flag and the honoring of Colin Kaepernick was going to improve their image. A vastly incorrect picture of America is portrayed and painted by the media each and every day and unwitting people (who otherwise are smart and intelligent in their own right) believe it, and it makes them make incorrect decisions.
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.
