Liberal Hate Tweets: Obama Regime Economist and New Daily Show Host

RUSH: An economist at the Labor Department's Bureau of Labor Statistics -- this is an Obama administration official -- is undergoing a review after she apparently sent out a tweet claiming that Christians vote for Nazis. Economist Elizabeth Ashack's Twitter account, sometime over the weekend, appeared to tweet out, "People in the red states vote for Nazis to govern and then call themselves Christian. It will not end well for them." And then she includes the hashtag #BoycottIndiana.

They captured the screen shot of the tweet. It was captured by somebody called SooperMexican.com, S-o-o-p-e-r. Now, the tweet obviously is a reference to the new Indiana law that some say would make it easier to discriminate against gay people. Supporters of the law say it would only require courts to weigh the right to religious liberty in cases that might involve discrimination.

I told you yesterday that this story, this case uniquely parallels Ferguson, Missouri. And you know how? There were two things in Ferguson, Missouri, that became fact that were not fact, they were never, ever, true, but they became the identifiers of the story. One, "hands up, don't shoot," that the Gentle Giant was indeed that, a Gentle Giant, strolling the street on a beautiful Saturday afternoon, or as beautiful as Saturdays can be in Ferguson, Missouri, strolling down the street, contemplating -- this is what they told us -- the Gentle Giant was contemplating eagerly his first days at university.

This is before anybody knew that he had held up a convenience store, liquor store for some Swisher Sweets to make blunts out of. So the story was he tried to surrender, the Gentle Giant was only thinking about going to college, "hands up, don't shoot," he tried to surrender, and a white cop murdered him in cold blood.

The second aspect of the story was that this happens all the time, and it's finally time to bring it to a stop. It's finally time to do something about this. It's time we end this never ending white cop shooting innocent black kid story that happens way too much in this country.

Except, neither of them were true. White cops are not wantonly murdering innocent black kids, and the Gentle Giant didn't try to surrender. The facts of that story were buried and the illusions and the lies took their place.

Well, in Indiana and everywhere else this whole concept is being discussed, the Religious Freedom Restoration Act, there is this assumption that has become almost a Daily News story that Christian-owned businesses routinely, many times a day, discriminate against innocent, loving gay and lesbian couples. That innocent and lovable gay and lesbian couples multiple times a day are being denied service, are being denied the opportunity to conduct business.

Just like a lie that sprung up in Ferguson, so is one springing up here out of Indiana, and that is that Christian people are wantonly discrimination against gays and lesbians every day, multiple times a day, denying them this, denying them that, and it's about time it comes to a screeching halt.

When the fact of the matter is the stories that we have detailing this, the Christians involved were saying, "We're not discriminating against anybody. We are simply practicing our religious beliefs, just like the Indians wanting to use peyote. We're simply practicing our religious beliefs. We're not denying service to anybody. If we don't bake their cake, there are plenty of other bakeries that will. We do not wish to be forced into violating our religious beliefs."

We are being led to believe that's not what's going on. No, no, no. It's genuine discrimination. It's mean-spirited, extreme discrimination. It's happening all over the place. Just like the lies of Ferguson, this one has been given life, and it's now what they call operative. It is the lie on which everybody is making statements of opinion on this law.

Meanwhile, in the real world over at the Labor Department, there is an economist at the Bureau of Labor Statistics who tweeted that people in the red states vote for Nazis to govern and then call themselves Christian. The woman's name is Elizabeth Ashack, it's A-s-h-a-c-k, Ashack. Now, she's denying it. She's claiming that her account was hacked. A new tweet apparently written, which was that her work and her home computers were hacked and that an investigation's underway. Neither this tweet nor the original Nazi tweet were on her Twitter account as of yesterday.

Ashack's past Twitter profile said she was an economist at the Bureau of Labor Statistics and the Department of Labor, but her Twitter profile no longer includes any note about her work for the government, which has led some to speculate that she was recently fired from the BLS.

This new host that they have named excitedly to replace Jon Stewart on The Daily Show, guy's name is Trevor Noah or Noah Trevor. What is this clown's name? Is it Noah Trevor? (interruption) It's Trevor Noah. Okay. Trevor Noah. Anyway, they've discovered this guy is one of the biggest anti-Semites out there, based on things that he has tweeted. I have a list of some of these things that he has tweeted.

"South Africans know how to recycle like Israel knows how to be peaceful."

"Behind every successful rap billionaire is a double as rich Jewish man."

And there are others that are worse than that. But they're praising this guy, and they're talking about how the right wingers are gonna come gunning for this guy. They're not gonna understand that he's a comedian and he's making salient, funny points. The TV editor at Salon.com actually wrote: "I hope we, the audience, can prove to Noah that we deserve him and that we will stand for him, too, when it's necessary, because it's clear that he's used to backlash. I'm not sure that we are."

BREAK TRANSCRIPT

RUSH: Trevor Noah, the replacement for Jon Stewart at The Daily Show. By the way, he was like fourth on the list. They wanted Amy Poehler. (Is that her name?) She said no. They wanted Tina Fey. She said no. They tried for some other guy. I can't think of who the other guy was, some famous name who said (paraphrased), "No, I don't want to be shoehorned into a format like that." So he was the fourth guy on the list. But the new Daily Show host said that present day America has worse race relations than apartheid South Africa.

I kid you not. And the audience of The Daily Show laughed. "Oh, yeah! This guy's great, man! We can't wait 'til this guy is the host of the show!" NewsBusters tells about the time he was introduced by Jon Stewart on the program as the newest contributor. Stewart said, "I know that you flew in I guess yesterday from South Africa." And Trevor Noah said, "Yep, yep. I just flew in, and boy, my arms are tired," and he put his hands up as in "hands up, don't shoot." "Seriously, I've been holding my arms like this since I got here."

"Hands up, don't shoot," and he said, "I never thought I'd be more afraid of police in America than in South Africa. It kind of makes me a little nostalgic for the old days back home." So why move here? If you're more afraid of the cops in the United States than you were during Apartheid in South Africa, why move here? Why move to such a violently racist country? What was he thinking? Anyway, the audience of The Daily Show loved it. They ate it up. So all of this lying bigotry and discrimination and hatred is perfectly fine wherever it occurs on the left.

They have to make things up about conservatives and white police officers! They have to make things up and then perpetuate the lies that they tell. This Religious Freedom Restoration Act, think of it as it's a shield. It's protection is right there is in the name of the law. It's not a gun; it's not a weapon. It's not a sword, as people say. It's a shield. It protects people. And, boy, has it been distorted way out of the ballpark.
