We have four sound bites, four excerpts from his remarks. And the remarks raised a lot of controversy, created a lot of anger out there. So let\u2019s get started here with the first one.<\/p>\n<p>BARR: Our prosecutors have all too often inserted themselves into the political process based the flimsiest legal theories. Letting the most junior member set the agenda might be a good philosophy for a Montessori preschool, but it is no way to run a federal agency. What do you mean by interfere? Under the law, all prosecutorial power is vested in the attorney general. And these people are agents of the attorney general. And as I said, FBI agents, whose agent do you think you are? I don\u2019t say this in a pompous way, but that is the chain of authority and legitimacy in the Department of Justice.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-364572\" src=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/APP-091720-Barr-3.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/APP-091720-Barr-3.jpg 640w, https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/APP-091720-Barr-3-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/APP-091720-Barr-3-480x270.jpg 480w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>RUSH: You know, he left no question here who\u2019s in charge at the Department of Justice. And it\u2019s also, it\u2019s obvious from listening to him that he\u2019s fed up, folks, he is fed up with all that is happening. He\u2019s fed up with the lack of law enforcement in places like Portland and Seattle. It\u2019s really, really bothering him.<\/p>\n<p>He said that the coronavirus lockdown, for example, is the greatest intrusion on civil liberties since slavery. Now, I gotta tell you, the Congressional Black Caucasians had a problem with that. And the civil rights coalition, you start talking the coronavirus lockdowns compared to slavery, and you are going to have a battle on your hands, and he does. But it was. It was unconstitutional. They didn\u2019t have the authority, the constitutional authority to lock down this country, to tell businesses they can\u2019t open, for example, is unconstitutional. He said that other than slavery, which was a different kind of restraint, coronavirus lockdowns were the greatest intrusion on civil rights in American history. He has been fuming out there over all of this stuff. Here\u2019s the next sound bite.<\/p>\n<p>BARR: They\u2019re not interested in black lives. They\u2019re interested in props, a small number of blacks who are killed by police during conflict with police, usually less than a dozen a year, who they can use as props to achieve a much broader political agenda.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Do you realize &#8212; this is one of these statements that a lot of people think, more than you would know. But they don\u2019t dare voice. Because they\u2019re scared to death what would happen to them. He\u2019s talking here about Black Lives Matter, and had he blistered them. But he knows who they are. They\u2019re not interested in black lives. That\u2019s the marketing. That\u2019s the PR. That\u2019s the umbrella. That\u2019s the distraction. That\u2019s the way they\u2019ve made people buy into this silly notion that they\u2019re a civil rights group.<\/p>\n<p>They are a full-fledged, unapologetic, Marxist, Leninist group which despises the United States of America as founded. They despise capitalism, and they\u2019re objective is to overthrow it. And Barr knows it. And I\u2019m telling you, he\u2019s sitting out there, he\u2019s frustrated that nobody is willing to stand up to \u2019em. I guarantee you &#8212; I\u2019ve not talked to him. I probably shouldn\u2019t put words in his mouth. I\u2019m assuming that he watches one corporate entity after another bend over and grab the ankles for these people, and he\u2019s wondering where the hell is the backbone anywhere in our country, where is our spine. They\u2019re not interested in black lives.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-full wp-image-355908 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/APP-071320-TAPE.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/APP-071320-TAPE.jpg 640w, https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/APP-071320-TAPE-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/APP-071320-TAPE-480x270.jpg 480w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/>Do you realize these college age white Millennial women, when they hear that, do you realize how mad that\u2019s gonna make them? &#8220;What do you mean they don\u2019t care about black lives? That\u2019s all they care about. He\u2019s a white supremacist.&#8221; And that\u2019s how they\u2019re gonna try to characterize Barr and relegate him to irrelevancy, just call him a white supremacist, when they don\u2019t even know what that means. No, they don\u2019t know what it means. It\u2019s just a couple of syllables put together that sound good, but they don\u2019t know what white supremacy means. Not as it\u2019s used by people mischaracterizing it.<\/p>\n<p>They\u2019re not interested in black lives. They\u2019re interested in props, a small number of blacks killed by police during conflict with police, usually less than a dozen a year, they can use as props to achieve a much broader political agenda. What that means is they take the instances of black lives lost at the hands of the police and use that to implement a political agenda that they\u2019re really not &#8212; they don\u2019t care about George Floyd is his point.<\/p>\n<p>They don\u2019t care about George Floyd. They don\u2019t care about Breonna Taylor. They want you to think that that\u2019s why they exist, but that\u2019s not at all what their objectives are. Look. He\u2019s gotta be frustrated like we all are. If you go to the Black Lives Matter website, they\u2019re front and center about who they are and what their objective is. And how in the world all these different corporate entities can just ignore it? Here\u2019s the next short little sound bite.<\/p>\n<p>BARR: A person in a white coat is not the grand seer who can come up with the right decision for society. A free people makes its decision through its elected representatives.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Right on. Hear the applause start at Hillsdale College. The person in the white coat, meaning we\u2019re not gonna bring some phony baloney, plastic banana good time rock-n-roller in here and outfit them in a white coat and tell you they are a scientist. You put a white coat on them, it doesn\u2019t make them a climate change expert. It doesn\u2019t make them a coronavirus expert. It makes them a prop. The person in the white coat, not a grand seer who can come up with the right decision for society.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-full wp-image-364688 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/APP-091720-Barr-5.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/APP-091720-Barr-5.jpg 640w, https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/APP-091720-Barr-5-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/APP-091720-Barr-5-480x270.jpg 480w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>You could almost say Dr. Fauci is not some grand seer who can come up with the right decision for society. The American people, a free people, make its decision through its elected the representatives, not some grand seer. I know he\u2019s sitting out there frustrated, like we all are, at the ease with which these propagandists are succeeding. Here the final little bite.<\/p>\n<p>BARR: You know, putting a national lockdown, stay-at-home orders is like house arrest. It\u2019s, you know, other than slavery, which was a different kind of restraint, this was the greatest intrusion on civil liberties in American history.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Oh, whoa. Wow. Oh, my, oh, my goodness. Well, we have after the break, James Clyburn, father of Mignon Steak Clyburn of the Congressional Black Caucasians, is fit to be tied because, see, only Democrats are allowed to make comparisons with slavery.
