RUSH: Here is Justin in Cincinnati as we get started on the phones. Great to have you, sir. Hi.
CALLER: How you doing, Rush?
RUSH: I’m good. I’m good. How you doing?
CALLER: Megaprayers and megadittos, too.
RUSH: Good, good.
CALLER: Hey, I just wanted to get to my point real quick.
RUSH: Yeah.
CALLER: I saw the video of the lady… This kind of goes as part of what you’re talking about censoring everything.
RUSH: That would be Dr. Stella Immanuel from Nigeria.
CALLER: Yeah.
RUSH: Right.
CALLER: They were out in the courthouse talking about the COVID and saying how Dr. Fauci, why would…? You know, he’s taking the hydroxychloroquine, and she’s like, “Prove me wrong,” and, you know, it’s being deleted off the social media. So, you know, just kind of wondering why, and we want to make this, you know, get out there so we can see if they are actually taking it. I just want to kind of get your point on that and see what you think.
RUSH: Well, in the monologue segment of the next hour I’m gonna spend some time on this. What this is, Dr. Stella Immanuel is a doctor from Nigeria. She’s an MD, and she’s currently working in a Texas emergency room, and she is a 1000% believer in hydroxychloroquine, and she has more experience prescribing it than American doctors because she has been treating malaria patients for years with it.
It’s primarily a malaria drug, and so she and some other doctors gathered on the steps of something (it looked like the U.S. Capitol) to promote hydroxychloroquine, and to talk about how great it is and how there’s no need for masks; if we would just give everybody this drug, that we would end the emergency. She’s a firm believer that hydroxychloroquine is the magic bullet.
If we just give it to patients, both as a preventative and as a curative, that we would be able to open the schools. We’d be able to open the country, open the economy. And there have been a bunch of people who have retweeted her remarks, and every one of those people have been taken down from Twitter. Donald Trump Jr. has been taken down from Twitter.
Sidney Powell, Michael Flynn’s lawyer, retweeted what Dr. Stella Immanuel said, and they have been taken down. They’ve been accused of violating Twitter standards. So anybody who retweets Dr. Stella Immanuel’s words gets killed on Twitter. Facebook has wiped all of them out too. They do not want this out. And the Daily Beast, The Daily Beast…
Have you seen this story? The Daily Beast has a story. Oh, everybody is trying to destroy this woman. “Do you know that she believes that alien DNA was implanted in the human race thousands of years ago, and there’s a secret in that DNA that could unlock things and we could cure many diseases?” They’re trying to portray her as some wacko, unbelievable kook out there. But they want to make sure nobody sees what she said yesterday.
BREAK TRANSCRIPT
RUSH: Okay. Here is Dr. Stella Immanuel. She is part of a group of doctors — and this was late yesterday, audio sound bites 1 and 2 here, Mike. Yesterday in Washington on Capitol Hill, during the summit, America’s frontline doctors, White Coat Summit, that’s what it was called, they were all wearing white coats, they were on the steps of the Capitol, they held a press conference to talk about COVID-19.
And Houston, Texas, emergency room doctor, Dr. Stella Immanuel, first generation American, originally from Cameroon, trained in Nigeria, spoke. Now, she’s a little tough to understand, thick accent here, but if you stick with it you’ll be — and I’ve got the transcript so if you have trouble I’ll be able to translate this for you. But here’s the first of a couple bites.
IMMANUEL: Past few months I think we cure over 350 patients and not lost one. And on top of that I’ve put myself, my staff and many doctors that I know on Hydroxychloroquine for prevention. It works. I came here to Washington DC to say America, nobody needs to die. I’m upset. So if some fake scientist, some person sponsored by all these fake pharma companies comes and say, “Oh, we’ve done studies and it found out that it doesn’t work,” I can tell you categorically, it’s fake science. This virus has a cure. Hello, you don’t need masks. You don’t need people to be locked down. There is prevention and there is a cure. America, there is a cure for COVID. It’s called Hydroxychloroquine, it’s called zinc, it’s called Zithromax.
RUSH: Hydroxychloroquine with zinc or with the Z-Pak, Zithromax, zithromyacin. Now, she’s loaded for bear here, and this is the third day in a row that we have had stories from reputed doctors and scientists making the case for hydroxychloroquine. Yesterday it was an epidemiologist from Yale who had written a piece, an op-ed piece, major publication, talking about the wonders of the drug and how it’s effective, if used the proper way, effective on COVID-19.
This woman left Houston — that’s where she lives and works — to go to Washington with her doctor group to try to tell as many people as possible that this drug is all we need. There has been a systematic effort to kill this drug, to destroy its reputation starting with Dr. Fauci and the American epidemiology community and the National Institutes of Health and so forth. Dr. Fauci is out pushing the Moderna vaccine, which is completely new and unprecedented. It’s a kind of vaccine Fauci says he’s not much concerned about its safety, but yet nobody knows anything about it. It’s in its third phase clinical trial.
We’ve got a drug here, hydroxychloroquine, which has had 50 years of use, 50 years. People do not die taking the drug. It’s not an automatic killer if you have COVID-19. There are people trying to say so. Here’s Dr. Fauci, on one hand impugning a drug with a 50-year track record and extolling the virtues of a brand-new vaccine candidate that hasn’t been in testing long at all and claiming he’s not worried about it, but he’s very, very worried about hydroxychloroquine.
One more bite from Dr. Stella Immanuel. Same place. This is the Turning Point USA website. They posted video of Dr. Immanuel challenging people to provide a urine sample to prove that they’re not taking hydroxychloroquine.
IMMANUEL: Andrew Cuomo’s brother, the, you know, crazy one? That dude. I knew he took hydroxychloroquine. Do you know why? He kept saying that he was having nightmares. I knew he took some form of hydroxychloroquine, or one of them, probably the batch version. These people are taking hydroxychloroquine! I dare everyone in D.C.
All you talking heads on CNN, give me a urine sample. If I check your urine and you don’t have hydroxychloroquine in your urine, then ask America not to take it. You senators? All of them! You know why they don’t wear masks? Anthony Fauci can sit around, not wear a mask? Because they are all on hydroxychloroquine. They know it, but they want Americans to die. Anthony Fauci, I’m talking about… Oh, what? Just name them, all these talking heads on CNN. Give me a urine sample. I dare you!
RUSH: Were you able to hear that? This woman believes that everybody that’s gotten this disease and has recovered from it is secretly, privately taking hydroxychloroquine and not admitting it like the crazy dude you see on CNN, “Andrew Cuomo’s brother,” she said, “you know the crazy one? That dude. I knew he took hydroxychloroquine.
“Do you know why? He kept saying that he was having nightmares. I knew he took some form of [it], or one of them, probably the batch version. These people are taking hydroxychloroquine. I dare [them to] give me a urine sample. … You senators.” So she’s out there as boldly as anybody has been on hydroxychloroquine.
She has her own track record of using it and prescribing it. She says she’s not lost a single patient. She says that in the past few months she has cured over 350 patients and not lost one. She’s put herself, her staff, and many doctors that she knows on hydroxychloroquine for prevention, that it works. She went to Washington to say, “America, nobody has to die.”
She’s really upset about what’s being said and done with this drug. Well, Donald Trump Jr. retweeted her comments, and he has been banned from Twitter. He’s been taking down for violating some Twitter regulation or rule. Facebook, ditto. Sidney Powell, the brilliant lawyer for Michael Flynn, retweeted her comments. She has been disallowed on Twitter.
Twitter is taking down everybody who has retweeted or repeated the message from Dr. Stella Immanuel. She’s making the point that there is a cure for COVID; that she’s been using it, she hasn’t lost a single patient. She’s taking it as prevention, that nobody has to die. There have been a lot of studies around the world all saying hydroxychloroquine works in COVID patients.
And every one of those studies has been trashed and tarnished, as you know. But the drug keeps making a comeback because it has believers. I gotta take a quick time-out, because the Daily Beast has now published a hit piece on Dr. Immanuel that I gotta share with you. We’ll do that when we get back here. Hang on.
BREAK TRANSCRIPT
RUSH: The Daily Beast has now published a hit piece on Dr. Stella Immanuel, and their headline is this: Stella Immanuel, “Trump’s New Favorite COVID Doctor Believes in Alien DNA, Demon Sperm, and Hydroxychloroquine.”
Demon sperm, folks.
“A Houston doctor who praises hydroxychloroquine and says that face masks aren’t necessary … has become a star on the right-wing internet, garnering tens of millions of views on Facebook on Monday alone. Donald Trump Jr. declared the video of Stella Immanuel a ‘must watch,’ while Donald Trump himself retweeted the video.
“Before Trump and his supporters embrace Immanuel’s medical expertise, though, they should consider other medical claims Immanuel has made — including those about alien DNA and the physical effects of having sex with witches and demons in your dreams. Immanuel, a pediatrician and a religious minister, has a history of making bizarre claims about medical topics and other issues.
“She has often claimed that gynecological problems like cysts and endometriosis are in fact caused by people having sex in their dreams with demons and witches.” How many of you people have done that? How many of you people have had sex with demons and witches in your dreams and then come down with endometriosis?
“She alleges alien DNA is currently used in medical treatments, and that scientists are cooking up a vaccine to prevent people from being religious.” Have you heard about that? “[S]cientists are cooking up a vaccine to prevent people from being religious.” So if you believe in God-d, there’s gonna be a vaccine to cure you, she says — they say she says.
“[S]he has said that the government is run in part not by humans but by ‘reptilians’ and other aliens. … Immanuel gave her viral speech on the steps of the Supreme Court at the ‘White Coat Summit’ … The event was organized by the right-wing group Tea Party Patriots, which is backed by wealthy Republican donors.”
Aliens and reptiles!
The DNA of witches and demons!
BREAK TRANSCRIPT
RUSH: Mr. Snerdley informs me that he has had sex many times with witches, but not in his dreams. He’s had a whole bunch of witches, and it hadn’t been any doubt about it, and he doesn’t think that Dr. Immanuel is in any way weird to point this out. ‘Cause it happens to everybody now and then.
In fact, Snerdley said to me, “I defy any guy to tell me that he’s not had sex with a witch, at least once in his life.” Of course, it depends on how you define witch. But we get Mr. Snerdley’s point.
BREAK TRANSCRIPT
RUSH: All right. So we had Gerard call from Atlanta a moment ago. He said, “Does it frustrate you that so many people on the conservative side do not even now understand the radical nature of the American left?” Oh, yeah. For 25 years it’s been a frustrating thing. Here’s an example. Dr. Stella Emanuel. She appears to the steps of the Supreme Court.
She’s out trying to demand everybody to listen to her truth about hydroxychloroquine. She is what? She is a black, immigrant, female doctor. The left is trying to destroy her. Wait a minute! I thought it was the right wing that had all the mean-spirited, racist bigots. So I asked myself, “When are the American people gonna wake up and realize it’s the Democrats, it’s the American left trying to destroy a black, immigrant, female doctor?”
It ain’t us.
We are touting her.
We’re calling attention to her.
But the American left — which is protecting us from vile racism and trying to erase from our history the vile era of slavery, the party of Black Lives Matter — is out destroying a black, immigrant, female doctor. And I ask myself: Why don’t people on our side see the hypocrisy, or the true nature of the hatred the left has for people who simply do not agree with them?
BREAK TRANSCRIPT
RUSH: Look at this. This is from Tyler O’Neil at PJ Media. “Facebook, Twitter, YouTube Remove [Dr. Immanuel’s] Coronavirus Video, Claiming It Is ‘False.'” However, it had racked up — are you ready for this? — 20 million views on Facebook before they took it down. Now, I think that would qualify as viral. Dr. Immanuel’s video had…
In fact, let’s go back. Mr. Broadcast Engineer, give me audio sound bite number 1. This is what they literally tried to — well, they did suppress it. I mean, she goes to the steps with a bunch of other doctors of the Supreme Court, makes a passionate plea for the drug hydroxychloroquine in case usage with COVID-19. Donald Trump Jr. retweets her comments.
Twitter takes him down. Sidney Powell, the attorney for the Lt. Gen. Michael Flynn, retweets the comments; they take her down. Facebook takes down anybody that retweets it. Twitter takes down anybody that retweets it. They do not want the truth out, or whatever they fear this is. So here is what went viral, 20 million views on Facebook.
IMMANUEL: Past few months I think we cure over 350 patients and not lost one. And on top of that I’ve put myself, my staff and many doctors that I know on hydroxychloroquine for prevention. It works. I came here to Washington DC to say America, nobody needs to die. I’m upset. So if some fake scientist, some person sponsored by all these fake pharma companies comes and say, “Oh, we’ve done studies and it found out that it doesn’t work,” I can tell you categorically, it’s fake science. This virus has a cure. Hello, you don’t need masks. You don’t need people to be locked down. There is prevention and there is a cure. America, there is a cure for COVID. It’s called hydroxychloroquine, it’s called zinc, it’s called Zithromax.
RUSH: So hydroxychloroquine with a Z-Pak or azithromycin or zinc or Zithromax — if it’s used at the right time — she’s standing by it. That’s as affirmative as you can get on that. Grab sound bite number 2. This is not from the steps of the Supreme Court. This is late yesterday on the Turning Point USA website. That’s Charlie Kirk’s group.
It’s basically a massive organization of conservative, college-age students and young people. They posted video of Dr. Immanuel challenging people to provide a urine sample. She believes, as you will hear in this next sound bite… She believes that a lot of people who have come down with COVID-19 are using hydroxychloroquine to get better. She thinks that fool on CNN that got it used it, and she thinks there’s a lot of politicians who have come down with COVID-19 who are using hydroxychloroquine, but they don’t want anybody to know it.
She’s demanding urine samples from them.
IMMANUEL: Andrew Cuomo’s brother, the, you know, crazy one? That dude. I knew he took hydroxychloroquine. Do you know why? He kept saying that he was having nightmares. I knew he took some form of hydroxychloroquine, or one of them, probably the batch version. These people are taking hydroxychloroquine! I dare everyone in D.C.
All you talking heads on CNN, give me a urine sample. If I check your urine and you don’t have hydroxychloroquine in your urine, then ask America not to take it. You senators? All of them! You know why they don’t wear masks? Anthony Fauci can sit around, not wear a mask? Because they are all on hydroxychloroquine. They know it, but they want Americans to die. Anthony Fauci, I’m talking about… Oh, what? Just name them, all these talking heads on CNN. Give me a urine sample. I dare you!
RUSH: So she’s talking about Dr. Fauci. He throws out the first pitch ostensibly at a Washington Nationals game wearing a mask, and then he goes, sits in a loge deck, second level. He’s right next to two other people. He’s between two other people. No social distancing going on. He’s not wearing his mask. His mask is down. She claims that Dr. Fauci, you senators, you know why they don’t wear masks? Anthony Fauci can sit around not wear a mask because they’re all on hydroxychloroquine.
This is a major claim she’s making. To claim that Dr. Fauci is taking hydroxychloroquine and that’s how he can get away without wearing a mask? You know, it is curious. Leaving hydroxychloroquine aside for a moment, it is curious. Here’s Dr. Fauci. He throws out the first pitch at the Washington Nationals home opener. It was a horrible pitch. Folks, it was embarrassing.
It was almost as bad as Obama’s. You may not remember Obama’s actual first pitch because of what Obama was wearing when he threw the first pitch. He was wearing mom jeans. He’s wearing jeans that went up to his freaking nipples. And he’s out there, he throws the ceremonial first pitch, and it’s 75 feet high. Just horrible pitch. Fauci… Fauci throws a ground ball halfway between home plate and first base.
He says (summarized), “Well, I went out I rehearsed all day I haven’t thrown a baseball a long time, I really worked, I worked out hard the day before. I wanted to throw a sizzling strike.” Dr. Fauci said,” So I want out there and I was really throwing, and I threw out my arm. I hurt my arm, and so when it came time for the real first pitch, I didn’t have anything left.”
Okay, fine. You know, I’ve thrown out a ceremonial first pitch. In fact, I used to be in charge of them. Oh, yeah — and the Kansas City Royals have never been the same since I left. I was in charge of national anthem singers. I was in charge of ceremonial first pitches.
And after this show took off, the Royals asked me back to throw out a ceremonial first pitch. Mike Macfarlane was the catcher, and I bounced it in there, but it was great form.
I was hampered. I was wearing a coat and tie. But it was a great-looking pitch. It just bounced in the front of the plate. It’s unnerving, 40,000 people looking at you. Of course, with Dr. Fauci, there was nobody looking. Nobody was in the stadium. But then, folks, it is curious. Fauci is urging all of these precautions — social distancing, six feet, wear a mask.
I mean, he’s insistent on this stuff, and he’s been insistent since he got the story straight. You know, at first, Dr. Fauci said it was not necessary to wear a mask. Remember this? Go back to February, early March, before we learned what we know now. We had a bunch of these medical people who didn’t know what they were talking about ’cause it’s all new.
Dr. Fauci was saying it was not necessary to wear a mask, and then he came around said, “Oh, we gotta wear a mask, social distancing,” and he’s almost been insistent. Every interview he gives he focuses on this stuff, that it is behavioral, that it is up to us, that we must engage in government-approved, proper behavior in order to flatten the curve, in order to stop the spread.
Right? And then he doesn’t wear a mask when he’s seated one foot on either side of him from two other people. So you ask yourself, “Wait a minute.” Now, the other two people were wearing masks. But Dr. Fauci was not. So does that mean that if somebody near you is wearing a mask that you don’t have to? I don’t know that Dr. Fauci has explained this.
I don’t know if he’s been asked about it. If he has, I haven’t seen it. Anyway, back to Dr. Stella Immanuel. She had 20 million views of her remarks on the steps of the Supreme Court before Facebook took it down. So it’s gotten out. Despite massive efforts to hide and to censor her comments, they have gotten out — and isn’t it amazing? Instead of investigating the claims that she and these other doctors made… She’s not alone. She had a bunch of doctors with her.
And it’s amazing that instead of investigating the claims, they try to bury her words and trash her. PJ Media, Tyler O’Neil, pull quote: “America does need a serious conversation about the societal tradeoffs of this pandemic. Medical experts are not unified in supporting continued lockdowns, and the coronavirus’s low death rate and hospitalization rate suggest that the paralyzing fears are overblown.”
It’s true. Nobody talks about the relative low death rate because they want you to believe that every case is gonna lead to death. That’s why they can’t stop reporting these massive numbers of new cases. The hospitalization rate is also not anywhere near as disastrous nationwide as they want you to believe. Lockdowns are causing serious psychological harm. Lockdowns are causing serious economic harm. Lockdowns are causing devastation that has to be weighed. It has to be factored.
And this is where the Democrat Party comes in. The Democrat Party, just like these riots and the destruction in Seattle and Portland, they’re perfectly fine with it as long as they think it’s advancing a political objective, which is get rid of Donald Trump. And it’s the same thing with the economic destruction taking place because of the virus and their policies. As long as it gets rid of Trump, as long as we can blame all of this on Trump, then it’s worth it.
Now, let me tell you why this video went viral. I mean, nobody’s ever heard of Stella Immanuel before today. And I don’t mean that in any away to insult her. Just being real. Nobody knows who she is. Well, the people in Houston know she is, but I mean there’s not this national phenomenon named Stella Immanuel that people are desperately trying to find out about. And yet her video went viral. Now, why? Well, I’ll tell you why.
Because Americans are searching for answers to this pandemic. They are searching for solutions that do not require shutting everything down for months on end. Americans are thinking, there’s gotta be a way we can deal with this. We are the United States of America and we’re not a bunch of cowards. And we don’t cower in the corner from anything. That’s not who we are. That’s not our history. We do not act afraid of things like this. We adapt, and we battle them. And the American people wonder why in the world is our only option the destruction of our country?
So when somebody comes along with what sounds like a common-sense solution, people are fascinated, and they are interested. And that desire that people have for a new solution is likely gonna increase. And silencing the dissent, you know, silencing Stella Immanuel, sending her off into silenceville and getting rid of anybody who retweets her is only gonna make the misinformation worse. You’ve heard the phrase “a lie travels around the world while the truth is still putting on its pants”? We are being told so many lies about things that our own eyes see clearly.
So our eyes see what’s happening in Portland, Seattle. And yet we’re told, “No, no, no, this is just a bunch of veterans and moms. It’s peaceful. The only reason it’s violent is ’cause Trump is sending thugs out there so he can have video created for campaign TV commercials.” You say, no, no, no, no, no, no. That destruction is real. We can see it.
And we’re also told, guess what, that all of that violent rioting in Portland and other cities, it’s a myth. And, by the way, it doesn’t spread COVID. But you better stay away from church, and you better stay away from weddings. You can join the protests all you want, and you won’t spread the disease and get it. But if you go to church, you’re gonna die. They’re lying through their teeth that going to church spreads COVID like wildfire. They tell us the number of deaths is going up. That we’re gonna have a proven vaccine before the end of the year. So, hey, let’s just lock down, let’s be patient and understand we’re gonna have a vaccine.
We don’t know that. Folks, the likelihood of the vaccine, I don’t want to be, you know, Don Downer here, but the number of viruses for which we have a vaccine we could put in one hand. We don’t have a vaccine for the common cold. We don’t have a flu vaccine, don’t care what you think. A flu shot is not a vaccine. People get the flu who get flu shots all the time.
But because people think it’s a vaccine — this is an interesting case study. We are totally willing to accept millions and millions of deaths every year from the flu because we think we got a treatment for it. We got a shot. We’re nowhere near the number of deaths with COVID-19 that we have in an average flu season, and yet look at the difference in the way people react to both.

RUSH: Micah in Waukesha, Wisconsin. It’s great to have you with us. How you doing?
CALLER: I’m doing well, Rush. Thank you so much.
RUSH: Great to have you here.
CALLER: Thank you. And my comment today is, I am so glad that when I tuned in yesterday and heard Dr. Immanuel speaking on behalf of hydroxychloroquine and giving a message of hope that there is a treatment for this. And when I showed this to my mom we just sat there for 20 minutes and listened to these nurses and doctors speak because they’re giving a message that’s not being heard.
And we were so glad that there are fighters out there that are being heard, willing to risk themselves, their practices, because they know it’s gonna save lives, 70 to a hundred thousand, they said, maybe could have been saved if they would have used hydroxychloroquine. And you know what? This is based upon a 2005 National Institute of Health study done in 2005 in response to the SARS virus (unintelligible) by Dr. Fauci.
RUSH: Micah, can I ask — is it Mika or Micah?
CALLER: It’s Micah.
RUSH: Okay. Can I ask you a question?
CALLER: Yes.
RUSH: Okay. So Dr. Immanuel makes her statement on the steps of the Supreme Court, and she’s very positive, she’s very affirmative, she’s very certain about the benefits of hydroxychloroquine. She wants everybody to use it. She wants everybody to have it made available. She is convinced that a lot of people are using it and are not telling you. And yet anybody who retweeted her comments and her video itself, Twitter pulled down. Now, could you tell me, who at Twitter is the medical expert that decides that Dr. Immanuel doesn’t know what the hell she’s talking about?
CALLER: I don’t think —
RUSH: Who at Twitter gets to — well, who is the Twitter doctor?
CALLER: I mean, I think Dr. Fauci is.
RUSH: No, it’s not an algorithm. It’s the Democrat Party running Twitter. It’s political. I’m asking the question because there isn’t a Twitter doctor. That’s the reason I’m asking this stupid question. It’s not a stupid question. It’s a brilliant question. Who is the Twitter doctor? So here you have Dr. Immanuel. She’s an accredited doctor. She’s been practicing for years. She’s a black immigrant female doctor. Checks every box, right? No. We gotta destroy this doctor. We gotta destroy this woman. Somebody at Twitter is well aware that she is a fraud, so there must be some medical expert at Twitter and Facebook who can recognize fraudulent doctors the minute they see a retweet.
How does that happen? Who is the Twitter doctor that knows whether a doctor is telling lies or not? Well, it isn’t a doctor. It’s the Democrat Party. It’s the American left. Dr. Immanuel got pulled down, and everybody retweeted her got pulled down because she got censored because this drug happens to have a link to Trump.
And because of that, this drug cannot be allowed to be perceived as successful, as something that works, because it is tied to Trump. Trump is the first guy to tout it nationally. And for that reason alone these people need to be taught a lesson so badly. And I hope they are.
BREAK TRANSCRIPT
RUSH: Yeah, see, right here it is. Facebook, Twitter, YouTube removed doctor’s coronavirus video, claiming it’s false. Who says it’s false? Who’s the medical expert at Facebook, Twitter, YouTube? They don’t have to tell us that. They can just pull it down. It isn’t about medicine. It’s about politics.
