Game on. Same old, same old. Same formula. So the bad guys put out a book that excoriates, impugns, defames the president. The Drive-By Media pick it all up and promote it, try to make it look like everybody in the country agrees with it.

Bad guys write a book; bad guys go on TV. Drive-Bys circle the wagons, amplify, lie, distort, whatever.

And so we\u2019re here and that\u2019s what\u2019s on the agenda. It\u2019s great to have you with us. Open Line Friday. When we go to the phones, anything you want to talk about, have at it.

All of us are caught up in the middle of never-ending political agendas, but it\u2019s disguised as news. We\u2019re being told that this is news. &#8220;This is earth-shattering, breaking news! Why, we had no idea this was coming,&#8221; and that\u2019s not at all what any of this is. This is all prepackaged. It\u2019s preplanned.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s been edited and formatted, and it\u2019s been timed. It has everything about it designed to move forward a political agenda. But everybody involved in that\u2019s saying, &#8220;No, no! There\u2019s nothing going on here. We just have an honorable guy who\u2019s very, very worried about the country and wants to set the record.&#8221; If he wants to set the record straight, why did he wait a year and do it for millions of dollars? If he cares so damn much about this.<\/p>\n<p>Anyway, yesterday, <a href=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/daily\/2018\/04\/12\/two-americas-drive-apocalypse-vs-country-working\/\">my friends, I spoke about the concept of two Americas &#8212; at least two Americas<\/a> &#8212; and I want to it illustrate exactly what I\u2019m talking about here, if you\u2019ll pardon me for just a moment, if you\u2019ll indulge here for just a moment. Again to restate it. On one side here, we have the country and the people who make it work and the way they live their lives. They get up every day and they go about their business. And in the process, the country works. Using the freedoms, the liberty, the ambition, the talent, the desire &#8212; whatever it is &#8212; that makes up people. Whatever it is that makes everybody who we are.<\/p>\n<p>Everybody gets up and goes to it.<\/p>\n<p>On the other side we have the Drive-By Media and the American left, which is engaged in a single project of tearing the other America down and tearing it apart, all because they don\u2019t like America, all because they don\u2019t like the people who are making the country work, from top to bottom. And so theirs is a never-ending quest to tear it down. They tear it down or try to tear it down by depressing and dispiriting the people who are getting up and going to work or whatever it is they\u2019re doing that constitutes actual living life, as opposed to the other side.<\/p>\n<p>Yeah, they\u2019re alive, but they\u2019re not living life. They are people absorbed and drenched in hatred and resentment, anger and outrage. And they\u2019re taking the fact that they\u2019re outraged and unhappy and miserable out on everybody else. And in the process, one half of America spends its day making the country work and trying to defend it. The other half is just trying to tear everything apart. And last night I was with the half of America &#8212; or whatever percentage it is &#8212; that makes the country work.<\/p>\n<p>Last night was the annual dinner for the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.mc-lef.org\/\">Marine Corps-Law Enforcement Foundation<\/a>, the annual fundraising dinner. MC-LEF is 23 years old. I was there in the home of one of the founders as the whole idea was being put together in 1993. It was a home in Rockville Centre in New York, and it was a number of great ex-Marines &#8212; some now in law enforcement, some were in finance &#8212; and they wanted to put together a foundation which would provide college scholarships for the children of Marines killed in action. They later added law enforcement to it, and many of them worked in the FBI, many of them worked in law enforcement, police departments or elsewhere.<\/p>\n<p>And so what was originally a charity to provide college scholarships for the children of Marines killed in action was expanded to include children of people in law enforcement. And on extreme emergencies like 9\/11, MC-LEF expanded to all federal agencies where heads of families died and their children needed college scholarships. I became an early donor. I\u2019ve never been an active, practical participant in the actual structure of the charity, but Kathryn and I have been active donors and active fundraisers.<\/p>\n<p>And, as you well know, much of what we do is tied to MC-LEF. The Two If By Tea project was tied to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.mc-lef.org\/\">MC-LEF<\/a>. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.rushrevere.com\/\">The Rush Revere book series<\/a> is tied to MC-LEF. And last night was the annual fundraiser. The Marine Band shows up. There\u2019s always a special guest honoree from the United States military. Last night it was to be the secretary of defense, James Mattis, who had to cancel on Tuesday. And the event was last night. And he had to cancel because of what\u2019s going on in Syria. Now, the event was held at Cipriani Wall Street.<\/p>\n<p>It was a beautiful setting. It was jam-packed. It\u2019s a black-tie event and formal military attire, and it is a night totally devoted to celebrating the Marine Corps, celebrating the United States military, celebrating the values and traditions of the military which I think form the bedrock of the values and tractions of our society at large. We had a table&#8230; Two tables. Kathryn and I had two tables, and we invited&#8230; You know, we\u2019ve got this new feature going on our website, RushLimbaugh.com, called Meet Rush.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/team-rush-wants-you\/\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-263937 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/APP-011818-Team-Rush-Meet-Rush.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/APP-011818-Team-Rush-Meet-Rush.jpg 640w, https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/APP-011818-Team-Rush-Meet-Rush-300x169.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>When you click on that, you\u2019re presented with a form where you can fill out a little email questionnaire about why you think our team should arrange a video conference with you to explain why you listen, how long you\u2019ve been listening. And then we convert those videos and occasionally play them on an area of the website. And we\u2019ve been at this for, I don\u2019t know, a month and a half now, maybe longer in setting it all up. We began airing some of the videos that we produced.<\/p>\n<p>You remember the one that I told you about on the Pacific island, who has to walk a bunch of feet to get to the top of a mountain to get 2G cellular connectivity so she can download podcasts of the program each and every day. She then goes back down the hill where she does her missionary work. We\u2019re talking to people all over the country, and last night we invited three that we have met during the Meet Rush, Team Rush effort here. They\u2019re all former Marines. They\u2019re all lifetime listeners, they and their wives.<\/p>\n<p>So it\u2019s Kathryn and me and our six guests &#8212; well, three guests and their wives &#8212; at one table. We\u2019ve got some pictures of this we\u2019ll put at RushLimbaugh.com after I finish this little segment here. Koko\u2019s gonna transcribe it and put some pictures up. Just great people. Lifetime listeners. When you see these pictures, these are the people I\u2019m talking about who make the country work. These are the people that&#8230; Not because they listen to me, although I think it is inseparable. People who make the country work are listening to this program because this program reflects what they believe.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_270972\" style=\"width: 650px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-270972\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"wp-image-270972 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/04\/APP-041318-Rush-Table-0000x.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/04\/APP-041318-Rush-Table-0000x.jpg 640w, https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/04\/APP-041318-Rush-Table-0000x-300x169.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-270972\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Our guests Phil and Patricia, Joel and Felicia, and Joseph and Briar.<\/p><\/div>\n<p>This program validates what people who make the country work live, breathe, and believe. It was a pleasure meeting them. I had to hustle up there. I had to race out of here after the program. I had to fly up. I had to fly to Newark because the superintendent of the Port Authority&#8230; I\u2019m leaving something out. They asked me to speak when General Mattis couldn\u2019t make it. You talk about&#8230;? These people have all paid (laughing) to be in there to hear the secretary of defense, and he can\u2019t make it, and so it\u2019s me. Jim Kallstrom, former director of the FBI office in New York, is who asked me.<\/p>\n<p>He said, &#8220;Would you mind?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>I said, &#8220;Jim, are you kidding? I\u2019m not&#8230; I\u2019m not&#8230;&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;No, no. You gotta do it.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;How much you looking for?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Ten, 15 minutes, max. Ten, 15 minutes.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Oh, well, Jim, I don\u2019t even get warmed up \u2019til 30 minutes.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Okay. No problem.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>So they sent the superintendent of the Port Authority to Newark to meet me for lights and sirens into Manhattan to make sure I got there in time. And we did. We pulled in right as the reception and cocktail period was ending at 7 and everybody was being seated, and it was one inspirational speaker after another. There was a woman who lost her husband in combat. The foundation had provided scholarships for her two kids. She gave a stem-winder of a speech about what it all meant, about what it meant being married to somebody who the families know what\u2019s gonna happen, what can happen in combat.<\/p>\n<p>And it\u2019s the other America.<\/p>\n<p>This last night&#8230; Without the people that were in that room, the country wouldn\u2019t be what it is. We could get along without James Comey, and we can get along without Nancy Pelosi and Valerie Plame, and we can get along without all these people. We can get along without Anderson Cooper. We can get along without George Stephanopoulos. We can probably get along without me. But we cannot get along without the people in that room last night. As the closing speaker said &#8212; and he was responding to some of the comments I made, \u2019cause I talked about this divide in the country, and I pulled no punches.<\/p>\n<p>I told \u2019em I\u2019m worried. I told \u2019em that we\u2019ve got a serious challenge. We\u2019ve got a great nation at risk in a dangerous world, and I talked about this divide and I talked about &#8212; as you\u2019ve heard me say &#8212; the theory that I don\u2019t think we have anything that binds us together anymore like we had in World War II. This guy stood up after I\u2019d finished. There were some other comments, and he referenced it. Not by me and by name, but he said, &#8220;Look, let me just tell you something. We wearing the uniform here in this room tonight? Don\u2019t worry. We got it. We got it.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Just like the NYPD. They got it. Just like the Port Authority cops. They got it. Don\u2019t worry. We got it. We stay in our lane. It doesn\u2019t matter who\u2019s running the show. We know what we gotta do, and we got it.&#8221; And that\u2019s why we couldn\u2019t get along without those people in that room. And those people in that room last night are among those who get ripped and lampooned and impugned by these other guys that we have to spend a bunch of time chattin\u2019 about here today as though what they think matters, as though what they say or write is gospel.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-full wp-image-270945 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/04\/APP-041318-Rush-and-Friend.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/04\/APP-041318-Rush-and-Friend.jpg 640w, https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/04\/APP-041318-Rush-and-Friend-300x169.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>So we have to spend time exposing who they are and exposing the lies or the misrepresentations, the deceit that they\u2019re using in this repeating formula of the left on the assault against the country, and a few of us here on the right standing up trying to say &#8220;no&#8221; and stop them and defend it. But it was the people in the room last night at the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.mc-lef.org\/\">Marine Corps-Law Enforcement Foundation<\/a>. Not just the uniformed Marines, but the people that were there as donors and who show up every year. It was a microcosm of what I believe is people who make the country work, make the country run.<\/p>\n<p>And it was an honor for me to be part of it. It was a distinct privilege to be asked to speak in that room. I always think I bomb it too. I mean, I always think I didn\u2019t do nearly as good as I could have when it\u2019s over. I fretted over it all the way home last night. Then I realized I would have today to fix any&#8230; I didn\u2019t say anything wrong. It\u2019s just I\u2019m so hypercritical that I never, ever&#8230; Well, &#8220;never, ever.&#8221; I rarely tell myself I nailed it. But the crowd was up and supportive. It was just a great room to be in and a tremendous event to be part of.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignright size-full wp-image-270959\" src=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/04\/MC-LEF_Logo_w225.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"225\" height=\"352\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/04\/MC-LEF_Logo_w225.jpg 225w, https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/04\/MC-LEF_Logo_w225-192x300.jpg 192w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 225px) 100vw, 225px\" \/>I just wanted to acknowledge this and I wanted to let you know we\u2019re gonna have just a few pictures. We need to respect these people\u2019s privacy. No last names of the three lifetime listeners, all ex-military. They had the time of their lives. They had&#8230; I mean, they\u2019re ex-military. They have served their country. They had never been to an event like this, and they just&#8230; It was so great to have them there, people who genuinely appreciate it. One of these guys wants to go play golf. These people remember everything I said from the time they have been listening, and they\u2019re throwing it at me at dinner.<\/p>\n<p>I\u2019m just stunned and blown away. They remember more than I do, and I have one of the best memories in the world. They remember more than I do about certain things I\u2019ve said and when and how. So it was an invigorating evening, and it was very uplifting, and I wish everybody could participate in events like this for that very reason. So it won\u2019t be long and we\u2019ll have&#8230; I\u2019ve just got two pictures I\u2019m gonna put up for now. One is a shot of all of us at the table &#8212; and then not to slight the others, but there\u2019s a really good picture of me with one of the three listeners that we invited from the Meet Rush event.<\/p>\n<p>His name is Joel. He\u2019s a former Marine. Here\u2019s wearing his medals on his tuxedo jacket. Great people. Their wives were fun. It was&#8230; But these two pictures will give you a flavor for what the evening was &#8212; and, again, no last names because I don\u2019t want these people descended upon by the people we\u2019re gonna be talking about today on the left who seem to have only one desire and that\u2019s rip everything to shreds and tear it down. And I just do not want people who have done nothing but be listeners of this program to have to deal with any garbage like that. So that\u2019s why no last names.<\/p>\n<p>BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: The names of the three couples &#8212; lifetime listeners, all military members &#8212; who were our guests last night. Phil and Patricia, Joel and Felicia, and Joseph and Briar were their names. And I would love to tell you their last names, but in this day and age and this climate I\u2019m not gonna subject them to any potential harassment that might result from the trolls that live and breathe on Facebook and Twitter and Media Matters and wherever. But trust me: When you see the photos, you will&#8230; You\u2019ll be able to&#8230; They look it.<\/p>\n<p>They\u2019re great Americans.
