Rush Limbaugh: America is in a “Cold Civil War”

Trump on the cusp of destroying the deep state.

Rush Limbaugh says that America is in a “cold civil war” because President Trump is on the verge of fully exposing the deep state.

The radio host told his vast listening audience that latest impeachment efforts against Trump were just another attempt to overturn the 2016 election results and “nothing more than the Steele dossier 2.0.”

Limbaugh said that the Washington establishment was getting increasingly edgy because Trump threatens to destroy their power base for good.


“Their careers, their fortunes, their corruption. There are terribly big stakes involved here for these people. And Trump is on the cusp of overturning it and exposing it,” Limbaugh said.

He also noted that the basis for the impeachment inquiry against Trump is just more manufactured opposition research.

“The media is not media. It’s just Democrats who work in the media, and the whole group of ’em is aligned. And what we are in the middle of now, folks, is a Cold Civil...

Rush Limbaugh Announces Advanced Lung Cancer Diagnosis



On Monday, talk radio took a devastating blow as syndicated conservative Rush Limbaugh announced on air that he had been diagnosed with advanced lung cancer.

Limbaugh, a pioneer of the talk radio format, said upcoming treatments would impact his broadcasting abilities in the future.


Transcript as follows (courtesy of RushLimbaugh.com):

Ladies and gentlemen, this… This day has been one of the most difficult days in recent memory for me because I’ve known this moment was coming in the program today. Now, I’m sure that you all know by now, I really don’t like talking about myself, and I don’t like making things about me other than in the usual satirical, parodic, joking way.

I like this program to be about you and the things that matter to all of us. The one thing that I know that has happened over the 31-plus years of this program is that there has been an incredible bond that has developed between all of you and me. Now, this program’s 31 years old, and in that 31 years, there are people — you hear them call all the time — who have been listening the whole time. They’ve been listening 30 years or 25 years.

I just had somebody say they’ve been here three years. But, whatever, it is a family-type relationship to me, and I’ve mentioned to you that this program and this job is what has provided me the greatest satisfaction and happiness that I’ve ever experienced, more than I ever thought that I would experience. So I have to tell you something today that I wish I didn’t have to tell you.

It’s a struggle for me because I had to inform my staff earlier today. I can’t escape… Even though people are telling me it’s not the way to look at it, I can’t help but feel that I’m letting everybody down with this. But the upshot is that I have been diagnosed with advanced lung cancer, diagnosis confirmed by two medical institutions back on January 20th. I first realized something was wrong on my birthday weekend, January 12th.

I wish I didn’t have to tell you this, and I thought about not telling anybody. I thought about trying to do this without anybody knowing, ’cause I don’t like making things about me. But there are going to be days that I’m not gonna be able to...

Rush Limbaugh: ‘The Media Did Not Make Donald Trump and They Can’t Destroy Him’




On this weekend’s broadcast of “Fox News Sunday,” conservative talk radio host Rush Limbaugh said argued since the media did not make President Donald Trump, they could not “destroy him.”

Limbaugh said, “They have a formula, they have a blueprint for destroying Republican political officials they don’t like. It’s not going to...

‘Insidious’: John Kerry reportedly engaging in ‘rogue diplomacy’ with Iran, urging them to wait out Trump


Former Secretary of State John Kerry has been meeting secretly with Iranian officials without President Donald Trump’s permission for what some have termed “rogue diplomacy.”

NEW YORK, NY – APRIL 27: U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry (L) meets with Iranian Foreign Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif at the United Nations April 27, 2015, in New York City. The two were meeting at the opening of a UN conference on a global anti-nuclear weapons treaty, attempting to make progress in talks on a long-term nuclear deal. (Photo by Jason DeCrow-Pool/Getty Images)

This “rogue diplomacy” has reportedly centered on the disastrous nuclear deal implemented by former President Barack Obama in 2015 that the current president withdrew America from earlier this year.

What remains unclear is what exactly Kerry has been telling the Iranians. According to intelligence officials who spoke with Fox News host Dana Perino, the former secretary of state has been telling them to wait out the Trump presidency.

When asked by Perino during an interview Wednesday whether this allegation holds merit, Kerry declined to offer a direct answer, instead saying, “Everybody in the world is sitting around talking about waiting out President Trump.”

What does it mean though to wait out the president? The belief by some, including conservative commentator Rush Limbaugh and Fox News contributor Ari Fleischer, is that Kerry has essentially been urging the Iranians to not work with Trump to iron out a real nuclear pact, the point being that it’d be beneficial to the mullahs in Iran if they’d wait for a Democrat to retake the White House.

“John Kerry … has been talking to the Iranians and has been telling them to hold the line, to wait out Donald Trump and his administration,” Limbaugh said Wednesday afternoon on his radio show. “Meaning: Any deal that you make with Trump is gonna be bad for you, the...

The Demonizing of White Men

Rush Limbaugh’s December 2018 “Limbaugh Letter” has an article titled “Demonizing White Men.” It highlights—with actual quotations from people in the media, academia, and the political and entertainment arenas—the attack on white men as a class.

You can decide whether these statements are decent, moral, or even sensible. Should we support their visions?

Don Lemon, a CNN anchorman, said, “We have to stop demonizing people and realize the biggest terror threat in this country is white men, most of them radicalized to the right, and we have to start doing something about them.”

Steven Clifford, former King Broadcasting CEO, said, “I will be leading a great movement to prohibit straight white males, who I believe supported Donald Trump by about 85 percent, from exercising the franchise [to vote], and I think that will save our democracy.”

Teen Vogue, a magazine targeting teenage girls, wrote, “Not only is white male terrorism as dangerous as Islamic extremism, but our collective safety rests in rooting out the source of their radicalization.”

Economist Paul Krugman, a New York Times columnist, wrote a column titled “The Angry White Male Caucus,” in which he explained, “Trumpism is all about the fear of losing traditional privilege.”

There have been similar despicable statements made by academics.

James Livingston, a Rutgers history professor: “OK, officially, I now hate white people. … I hereby resign from my race. F— these people.”

Stacey Patton, a Morgan State University professor: “There is nothing more dangerous in the United States than a white man who has expected to succeed and finds himself falling behind.”

Stony Brook University sociology professor Michael Kimmel explained, “White men’s anger comes from the potent fusion of two sentiments: entitlement and a sense of victimization.”

Then there’s the political arena.

Sen. Bernie Sanders: “There’s no question that in Georgia and in Florida racism has reared its ugly head. And you have candidates who ran against [Andrew] Gillum and ran against Stacey Abrams who were racist. … And that is an outrage.”

Michael Avenatti, criticizing the GOP senators during the Brett Kavanaugh hearings: “These old white men still don’t understand that assault victims and women deserve respect and to be heard.”

“What troubles me is … they’re all white men,” commented former Michigan Gov. Jennifer Granholm regarding GOP senators questioning Christine Blasey Ford at the Kavanaugh hearings.

William Falk, editor-in-chief of The Week, said, “There’s something odd about the overwhelming white maleness of Washington’s current leadership.”

Not to be outdone, entertainers have hopped on the demonizing-white-men bandwagon.

Joy Behar, talking on ABC’s “The View” about senators supporting Kavanaugh, said: “These white men...

Limbaugh: Impeachment liable to LIBERATE Trump: ‘Can you imagine a more energized, focused president?’

(TNS) President Donald Trump likely knows and understands that House Democrats, filled with rage at being unable to take him out using other tried-and-true methods that have worked against other Republicans, is going to be impeached later Wednesday.

He knows today’s vote is just the culmination of a Garbage Party plan hatched in the hours after his historic 2016 election win.

He knows that most Democrats who ran in 2018 did so on a platform of impeaching him rather than on a platform of pledges about how to make our country a better place and solve some of our issues.
But here’s what we know: Democrats obviously still have not figured Donald Trump out. They haven’t figured out how to deal with him. They’ve never seen anything like him in their politicized world. And impeachment is literally the last legal, constitutional thing they have left in their arsenal to get rid of him.

And even that’s not going to work because the Senate will never vote to convict…since, you know, he hasn’t done anything to warrant a conviction.

No high crimes and no misdemeanors.

We also believe that Democrats have no idea the lion they are about to unleash on their poor unsuspecting souls.

On his program Wednesday, conservative talker Rush Limbaugh speculated that President Trump will become revitalized after surviving the impeachment hoax.

After all, he’s survived the...

Trump Slams Democrats, Media For Describing Terrorist Soleimani As “Wonderful Human Being”


“He was designated as a terrorist by Obama, and then Obama did nothing about it.”

President Trump made an impromptu call to conservative talk radio host Rush Limbaugh’s show Monday, and slammed the Democrats’ and the establishment media’s attempts to frame Iran Gen. Qasem Soleimani as anything but a murderous terrorist.

“He was a terrorist, you know, they don’t want to call him a terrorist. Now the Democrats are trying to make him sound like he was this wonderful human being,” Trump said, agreeing with Limbaugh that the media has been describing Soleimani as being like a “poet.”


The President railed against the “totally fake newspapers” for penning pieces painting Soleimani in a sympathetic light, just as they did when they described the killed ISIS terrorist leader Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi as an “austere religious scholar.”

“They tried to build him up into a relatively wonderful guy,” Trump noted.

The President also slammed the Obama administration, saying that they were...

It Doesn’t Matter That Voters Hate Joe Biden If Democrats Can Rig Elections


Just a month before the 2020 election, radio host Rush Limbaugh commented that Democrats “resent the whole premise behind elections. Look, they don’t believe they should have to persuade anybody to agree with them … The modern-day Democrats have to go through the motions of campaigning, and they have to go through the motions of trying to win the hearts and minds of voters. But they resent the h-ll out of it. And in their world, it’s the one thing standing in their way: This need, this requirement to win elections. And I’m just telling you: As soon as they can figure out a way to eliminate elections, they will do it.”

Today, Democrats are engaged in a full-court press to pass legislation that would brush state election safeguards aside and codify the shenanigans of 2020 into federal law. They’ll nuke the filibuster if they can, a step never taken previously for high-priority legislation but pursued now for a bill that nobody is marching in the streets for. Anything to cement themselves into a permanent position of power.

As Joe Biden himself said, “It’s about election subversion, not just whether or not people get to vote. Who counts the vote? That’s what this is about, that’s what makes this so different from anything else we’ve ever done.” Indeed.

Voters Aren’t Clamoring for Democrat Priorities

It’s hard being a Democrat lately. Just ask Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer. After promising to hold a vote to eliminate the filibuster and force through passage of their “voting rights” bill by Martin Luther King Jr. Day (January 17), he had to push it back again.

This, of course, comes on the heels of a stinging defeat of the Biden administration’s Covid vaccine mandate by the Supreme Court. That failure was preceded by the “Build Back Better” bill being stalled in the Senate, perhaps for good.

Party leaders are upset, but the truth is that voters are not enthusiastic about much of this. There are no marches for mandates. Nor is there any grassroots demand for Build Back Better or the federalization of state elections. And a recent poll found that support for the filibuster has only grown since Democrats began their push to eliminate it (now by a 53 percent to 27 percent approval to disapproval margin).

Democrats Mistakenly Double Down

Democrats may fail at policy, but they’ve always been reliably competent at the game of politics, zeroing in on votes with great precision. Have you noticed they haven’t been themselves lately, though?

Even after taking a shellacking in statewide elections in Virginia and New Jersey last November, a moment when sane politicians typically learn from defeat, they instead doubled down. In her usual well-reasoned manner, Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, D-N.Y., commented after the electoral bloodbath that Democrats were beaten, not because of the president’s agenda, but because they hadn’t done enough to “excite, speak to, or energize a progressive base.”

Never mind that voters knew what was...

LIMBAUGH: TRUMP WAS RIGHT In Claiming That Obama Wiretapped Him




RUSH: The media’s also a bit abuzz because Trump’s out there saying that Susan Rice may have committed crimes. Now, what’s fascinating about this to me is that Trump generally ends up being proven right with all these things. No matter how outrageous they sound at the time, after a certain passage of time, it ends up that Trump is much more right than he was ever wrong. Sweden is a great recent example of that. Claiming that Obama “tapped his wires” at Trump Tower. The Obama administration says, “It’s absurd! It’s ridiculous! Trump’s insane! This is lunacy!”

And now we’ve learned everything. We learned that Susan Rice was unmasking and requesting and that there was surveillance of Trump people, be it incidentally or direct. Trump was right. In the overall generic sense, he and his team were being spied on by...

Donald Trump: Fox News Forgot the ‘Golden Goose’ that Made Them Successful
















President Donald Trump criticized Fox News on Thursday, noting that their daytime ratings collapsed after the election.

“Very sad to watch this happen, but they forgot what made them successful, what got them there,” Trump wrote.

The president cited the fable of the goose that laid the golden eggs, claiming that Fox News killed their audience by pitting their network against his presidency.

“They forgot the Golden Goose. The biggest difference between the 2016 Election, and 2020, was Fox News!” he wrote.

The president also retweeted several messages from his supporters on Twitter signaling their frustration with Fox News and proposing moving to One America News Network or Newsmax TV for their news.

Trump expressed irritation with Fox News throughout the 2020 election, even describing it as an “obstacle” to his campaign.

“You have such an incredible audience. So I can tell them about Fox being a big obstacle,” Trump said in an interview with talk radio legend Rush Limbaugh in October. “It’s a problem. Fox is a problem.”

He described Fox News as “no longer great” and blamed former House Speaker Paul Ryan for influencing the network’s more centrist and critical tone of...

LIMBAUGH: Lisa Bloom Soliciting Cash To Pay Trump Accusers Is Not Far From Offering Women Money To Make Up Stories

RUSH: John Solomon, Alison Spann had at TheHill.com: “A well-known women’s rights lawyer” Lisa Bloom, the daughter of Gloria Allred “sought to arrange compensation from donors and tabloid media outlets for women who made or considered making sexual misconduct allegations against Donald Trump during the final months of the 2016 presidential race, according to documents and interviews.”

Now, let’s be clear what this story says. The story says that Lisa Bloom “sought to arrange … for women who” would come forward and accuse Trump of sexual harassment, to be paid by either tabloid media or donors, in order to get them to come forward. She offered “to sell alleged victims’ stories to TV outlets in return for a commission for herself, arranging a donor to pay off one Trump accuser’s mortgage and attempting to secure a six-figure payment for another woman who ultimately declined to come forward after being offered as much as $750,000…”


Now, wait. This story does not...

Trump Just Endorsed Kelli Ward Over Arizona Senator Jeff Flake. Here Are 5 Things You Need To Know About Her.

President Trump has officially declared war on Sen. Jeff Flake (R-AZ) by endorsing Dr. Kelli Ward, who is challenging Flake in a primary.

Here are five things you need to know about Ward:

1. Ward has continued to work in the field of medicine even as she served in the Arizona state legislature and while campaigning. According to her state senate biography, Ward attended the West Virginia School of Osteopathic Medicine for medical school and founded Lakeview Family Health Care with Dr. Lorraine Byrd, her mother. Ward now works as a emergency care physician in Lake Havasu and Kingman.

2. Ward's voting record in the state legislature seems to be solidly conservative. Her Vote Smart profileshows Ward receiving a lifetime rating of 98% from the American Conservative Union (ACU), 100% from the Arizona Small Business Association, 86% from the National Rifle Association (NRA), and 83% from Americans for Prosperity. During her tenure in the Arizona state senate — 2012 to 2015 — she had 19 bills signed into law. Ward has credited her co-workers for introducing her to conservative talk radio — namely Rush Limbaugh — for her conservative beliefs.

3. Ward attempted to primary Sen. John McCain in 2016, to no avail. McCain won 51.2% of the vote, while Ward only received 39.9%. However, Ward claims she was outspent by a margin of 10 to 1 and noted that she "held McCain to his lowest historical primary total ever."

During the primary,
