Donald Trump Jr. responded to crybaby Jimmy Acosta with this tweet<\/a>: Hey, Jimmy, “did you or your colleagues take any responsibility for your rhetoric in constantly calling my family Racists and Nazis for 2 years when my wife actually opened an exploding envelope of white powder intended for me?<\/p>\n“What about when it happend [sic] to my brother,” Jimmy? You know, you guys claim everybody else has to accept responsibility for their rhetoric, but you don\u2019t want to have any responsibility for your rhetoric or your actions — and that is so damn right on. They demand that the media get a total exemption from what they say, from what they report. Because they\u2019re journalists, because they get mentioned in the First Amendment, there can be no criticism of at what they do. And you damn well better not investigate them!<\/p>\n
You better not found out how many illegitimate kids they have, how many DUIs they\u2019ve got, how many drug arrests they have. You better not go there! They\u2019re journalists; they\u2019re above it all; they cannot be attacked; they cannot be criticized; they cannot be held accountable. And that\u2019s what they all think. And when anybody does it, it\u2019s outrageous. It is an assault on the Constitution. It\u2019d be one thing if they were smart and contributed to things and helped people learn and understand. But they don\u2019t.<\/p>\n
They\u2019re dumbing everything down that they cover.<\/p>\n

RUSH: Here is in Clifton Heights, Pennsylvania. You\u2019re up first today, and it\u2019s great to have you here with us.<\/p>\n
CALLER: Hi, Rush. It\u2019s great to be speaking with you. I just have a few points to make here that I noticed when I saw the envelope on the news that it wasn\u2019t postmarked on the envelope. And anything that goes through the mail, it automatically gets postmarked.<\/p>\n
![\"\"](\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/APP-102418-Pipe-Bomb-CNN-2.jpg\")
RUSH: Well, now, other people have mentioned that, but this was caught at… Now, wait a minute. The CNN… You\u2019re right, the CNN did show up in their mailroom with no cancellation on the stamps. You\u2019re right about that. Some of the others were caught and nabbed in the Drive-Bys centers where there might not have been postmarks. But on the CNN piece, yeah, you\u2019re right.<\/p>\n
CALLER: And also the six stamps that were placed on the envelope would not be enough to cover the cost to send it.<\/p>\n
RUSH: Well, that\u2019s what I say. They came from the swamps of Georgia as far as the Drive-Bys are concerned. Exactly.<\/p>\n
CALLER: Okay. So, yeah, I just feel that they\u2019re just throwing anything against the wall right now to see what sticks.<\/p>\n
RUSH: In…? You mean Democrats are throwing eh against the wall to try to mess you the midterms or meddle with the election? Is that what you mean?<\/p>\n
CALLER: Yeah, anything.<\/p>\n
RUSH: Or just to get Trump?<\/p>\n
CALLER: Yeah, anybody that is behind this. I mean, I have my suspicion who may be behind it. But at this point, I think that they are just in such chaos that they\u2019re just seeing what will stick to make a total chaos out of the whole midterms.<\/p>\n
RUSH: Well, if that\u2019s true, then it would certainly indicate that they do not believe in a blue wave, at the very least. Anyway, I appreciate that, Sarah. Thank you. (interruption) No, I\u2019m not gonna ask her who she thinks is behind it. I\u2019m not going there, folks. You\u2019re not gonna trick me. Not at all.<\/p>\n

RUSH: This is Pam in Omaha. Glad you waited. Hi.<\/p>\n
CALLER: Hi, Rush. Longtime listener, six-time caller, actually.<\/p>\n
RUSH: Thank you. It\u2019s great to have you back with us here.<\/p>\n

CALLER: Oh, thank you very much. Listen, my husband and I were talking last night, and we came up with some really common sense (chuckles) points to make that kind of illustrate where we think these packages weren\u2019t actually mailed. They\u2019re common sense questions, and the first one to me is, how likely is it that someone could mail multiple packages to multiple places all over the country and have them show up miraculously at the same time — approximately the same day, approximately the exact same time? That\u2019s not common sense. I mean, I just don\u2019t see how that could work.<\/p>\n
RUSH: Well, now, wait just a second. The De Niro package didn\u2019t arrive until late yesterday or maybe this morning. The George Soros package arrived the day —<\/p>\n
CALLER: True.<\/p>\n
RUSH: — before CNN got theirs and Clinton and so forth.<\/p>\n
CALLER: There is a whole group of them that did, like four or five of them showed up all exact same time.<\/p>\n
RUSH: How do you know it wasn\u2019t priority mail?<\/p>\n
CALLER: No, it could have been. You looked at the packages anyway, obviously the first caller mentioned one of the questions I was gonna make: There wasn\u2019t even enough postage on it for the post office to even accept it. The other thing is, these were oversized packages so you\u2019re obviously not taking them in and paying for them — you know, having them weighed and paid and processed properly. You\u2019d have to stick them in a post office box, right? Well, post office boxes don\u2019t even have enough room (chuckles) to slip an oversize package into. That doesn\u2019t make any sense to me, and I know some of these showed up at distribution centers. That makes sense. I get that. But some of them actually did show up at the residence. So you\u2019re gonna —<\/p>\n
RUSH: Okay. Well, what are you suggesting then? What are you suggesting happened?<\/p>\n
CALLER: I think they\u2019re a plant. I\u2019m sorry, but I just do. I mean, postal workers are trained to look for things. This is stupid-looking packages. It\u2019s cheesy. It\u2019s a joke. It looks like a joke. Anybody can see that there\u2019s something in there, and if you look at who they\u2019re addressed to don\u2019t you think that as they\u2019re going through security —<\/p>\n
RUSH: Now, wait a minute. This… I\u2019m glad you brought this up. I wouldn\u2019t… Now, I haven\u2019t been trained. I don\u2019t work the post office, so I haven\u2019t been trained. But I\u2019ve looked at these things, and knowing after the fact that they\u2019re what they are, yeah, they look odd. But if I worked in the postal distribution center and this stuff was going through there, I might notice the postage incorrect and so forth. But that wouldn\u2019t strike me, “Ooh, there\u2019s a bomb in there!”<\/p>\n
BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n
RUSH: No, no. I\u2019m just saying, folks, that if I worked at a post office, how many packages and pieces of mail go through there each and every day? I don\u2019t know how long they look at each package, but there was nothing that would have told me that there\u2019s a bomb in there. Now, maybe postal workers are trained that if things are of this shape and size and so forth — I\u2019m sure there\u2019s some kind of training — that there might be a bomb. Something had to clue these people in to the fact that there was oddness here.<\/p>\n
Some of these were delivered, like, to CNN. They got to the CNN mail room, even though John Brennan it doesn\u2019t work there (he works at MSNBC) he had his name on one. I don\u2019t even think they even had the right address CNN address. I don\u2019t think… Where the CNN device was sent was not where CNN actually is. It was close, but it was not dead-center location. De Niro\u2019s package was found at 4 o\u2019clock this morning in yesterday\u2019s mail. So De Niro\u2019s package made it through the postal distribution center and ended up at his restaurant.<\/p>\n

Ditto for the George Soros thing. Some of these people claim that these are hand-delivered or not delivered, but left under cover of darkness and didn\u2019t go through the mail. All I\u2019m saying is, the previous caller said, “These things are so obviously fake. The postage doesn\u2019t work. The addresses…” That could all be true. But there have to be all kinds of pieces of mail every day with misspellings, incorrect ZIP codes, oddball postage, oddball…<\/p>\n
I mean, people write things on the outside of envelopes all the time. Then you got your Santa Claus mail. All I\u2019m saying is that I wouldn\u2019t be able to spot that those packages contained bombs or explosive devices. And every time this stuff happens, I always wonder how those things are identified — before they\u2019re opened! Isn\u2019t that what we\u2019ve been told here, these things were spotted for what they are before they were opened, in some cases?<\/p>\n
BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n
RUSH: CNN is still at it. “Manhunt for Serial Bomber Going After Trump\u2019s Targets.” So there\u2019s somebody out there that\u2019s a Trump supporter and he is dutifully trying to blow up “targets” that Donald Trump mentioned. That\u2019s what CNN is saying this is, all the while preaching to everybody to dial it back. “You don\u2019t start talking about who did this until we know the facts!” But they, apparently, are free and clear to impugn anybody on the Trump side.<\/p>\n
“Manhunt for Serial Bomber Going After Trump\u2019s Targets.”<\/p>\n
You people at CNN, you think you\u2019re clever? You do not have the slightest idea how transparent you are and how easy it is to spot your pathetic and despicable lack of honesty and objectivity on this or anything else.<\/p>\n
BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n
RUSH: CNN is now running a story ripping Trump for not mentioning or reaching out to the ex-presidents who have had bombs sent to them.<\/p>\n
What a horrible guy!<\/p>\n
Trump hasn\u2019t reached out to the Clintons and he hasn\u2019t reached out to Obama, and he hasn\u2019t reached out to Robert De Niro. You know what\u2019s interesting? These people think that at a time like this, we drop all opposition and Trump should forget everything these people have eversaid about him. I don\u2019t think these people at CNN have the slightest but of understanding of the way Donald Trump sees things the past two years. The way Donald Trump sees it… And us. We saw and continue to see, by the way, an undisguised attempt at a coup.<\/p>\n
![\"\"](\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/APP-102518-CNN-Lemon-SMOOCH.jpg\")
For the past two years, elements of the Barack Obama administration, the FBI leadership and the intelligence community have spared no effort whatsoever at ruining Donald Trump! Not just getting him out of office, not just getting him out of the White House. They want to redo the election, they want to overturn the results, and if they have to destroy his family like they did Kavanaugh\u2019s in the process, they will do it, and they have tried. They implanted spies in his campaign.<\/p>\n
They had an FBI director named James Comey who was purposely willingfully lying and misleading Trump on the status of this whole investigation, what it was about. And now Donald Trump is just supposed to forget all of that! Donald Trump is supposed to set that aside. And that\u2019s the way these people look at! Remember a bunch of these conservative economists and foreign policy specialists who during the campaign all signed letters opposing Trump.<\/p>\n
(impression) “We sign our names to this letter today opposing in perpetuity the election of Donald J. Trump as president because he\u2019s scum, because he\u2019s a reprobate, because he\u2019s impolite, he makes us look bad, and we don\u2019t like him.” Fine. Trump gets elected. The same group of people, after about six months, starts complaining and whining that Trump hasn\u2019t hired them for his administration. People say, “Well, you guys remember what you said about him?”<\/p>\n
“Well, yeah, but that was just the campaign. You know, you\u2019re supposed to forget about that. In Washington all that stuff\u2019s forgotten once the election\u2019s over.” Donald Trump doesn\u2019t forget it, and Donald Trump hasn\u2019t forgotten what the Clintons, Hillary Clinton specifically in that dossier and the Obama people for two years, and it\u2019s still ongoing with the aid of CNN and the New York Times! They\u2019re trying to ruin and destroy Trump and the Republican Party! And Trump\u2019s just supposed to put all that aside and call Hillary and Bill and Barack and say, “Hey, guys doing okay after the bomb showed up?” Is that what he\u2019s supposed to do?<\/p>\n
That\u2019s what they think.<\/p>\n

RUSH: Let me show you something quickly to the Dittocam. Put it up there. This is Jeff Zeleny on CNN not long ago. Look at this: “CNN: Trump has no plans to claim any personal responsibility for inciting serial bomber.” Look at that! That\u2019s Jeff Zeleny, formerly of the New York Times, CNN reporter. That\u2019s the chyron graphic at the bottom: “Trump has no plans to claim any personal responsibility for inciting serial bomber.” What is all this that we\u2019re supposed to tone this kind of talk down until we know the facts?<\/p>\n

\u201cTen Packages Sent to Trump Targets\u201d? So, Trump has targeted these people, and somebody out there is following Trump\u2019s instructions and sending the bombs! I have to point this out. There\u2019s not a single bomb that\u2019s gone off yet. There\u2019s not a single bomb that\u2019s even had a false alarm yet. There\u2019s no smoke that\u2019s come out of any bomb. I was talking about this to Mr. Snerdley earlier today. You know, folks, to put together bombs like this, yet made to look like they came from a cabin in the movie Deliverance.<\/p>\n![\"\"](\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/TwitterGOPChairWoman.jpg\")
<\/a>That\u2019s a fall. That\u2019s a drop from… He was up plus seven. Indiana: Braun plus four. West Virginia Morrissey is up plus two. And then she closes with, \u201cLet\u2019s keep this momentum going.\u201d Now, this tweet came last night at 9:30, and that was after a full day of dampening enthusiasm, the bomb story. Now, why would the Drive-Bys be saying this? Do any of you have this impression? Do those of you who have Twitter feeds, Facebook feeds, Snapchat, insta-chat feeds, whatever, do you sense that there is a waning of enthusiasm on your side of the aisle?<\/p>\n![\"\"](\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/APP-102518-Rush-BIG-VOICE.jpg\")
Remember, we are a TV society. What we see on TV we tend to believe. Therefore bombs are featured in many TV shows and movies. And every bomb has a countdown timer on it. So these do too. Except they\u2019re not active. They\u2019re not turned on. They\u2019re not counting down. And they\u2019re not connected to anything. They\u2019re just there for show. The stamps have not been canceled. I mean, as though they would have progressed through some sort of standard procedure at the post office. But why might the Drive-Bys think that Republican momentum has stopped?<\/p>\n![\"\"](\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/APP-102418-Pipe-Bomb-CNN.jpg\")
The average American may as well be a costar in Deliverance. And that\u2019s who probably, in their minds, put together these bombs and sent them around and so forth. Trump targets. Don\u2019t forget, CNN calling them Trump targets! You think that\u2019s not blaming Trump? While out of the other side of their mouth they condemn anybody for blaming anybody in this until we know the facts? (interruption) So, Mr. Snerdley, let me just ask you. Do you think somebody is getting away with playing a big joke on America with this? Do you think this is…?<\/p>\n![\"\"](\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/APP-102518-RUSH-EIB.jpg\")
I just don\u2019t believe any of this. I think the Drive-Bys are still attempting to manufacture the scenarios they wish were actually happening in this country. I got an interesting email. “![\"\"](\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/TwitterDonaldTrumpJrAcosta.jpg\")
<\/a>Jim Acosta with a tweet: “Trump talked about the bombs sent to former public officials at his rally in Wisconsin. But once again he didn\u2019t mention CNN. On top of all that he criticized the ‘media\u2019 for coverage he doesn\u2019t like. And, of course, he took no responsibility for his own rhetoric.” Well,
