RUSH: Donald Trump recently, President Trump just signed really, really, really Draconian sanctions against Iran, including sanctions that will deny the supreme leader, the head mullah, the grand pooh-bah ayatollah, will deny him access to financial instruments. We have sanctions that are so pinpoint, they’re aimed at a guy, the supreme leader of Iran.
And Trump, just I mean moments ago, signed this executive order. There’s video of it happening right now. That’s pretty precision point when you deny the grand pooh-bah access to his financial instruments. Meaning, it’s gonna be tough for the guy to move money around and access his money, and so forth.
BREAK TRANSCRIPT
RUSH: Grab sound bites 22 and 23. Here’s the president today in the Oval Office mere moments ago announcing sanctions against Iran and the supreme leader, the grand pooh-bah, I tell you what.
THE PRESIDENT: The supreme leader of Iran is one who ultimately is responsible for the hostile conduct of the regime. He’s respected within his country. His office oversees the regime’s most brutal instruments, including the Islamic Revolutionary Guard corps. Sanctions imposed through the executive order that I’m about to sign will deny the supreme leader and the supreme leader’s office and those closely affiliated with him and the office access to key financial resources and support. The assets of Ayatollah Khamenei and his office will not be spared from the sanctions.
RUSH: The assets of the Ayatollah Khamenei will not be — can you imagine — my guess is that there’s a bunch people out there leftist Democrats, “Who does Trump think he is –” probably Obama “– he can’t tell the supreme leader of Iran what he can do with his money. He can’t do that, nobody can.” Well, he’s doing it. He’s doing it.
And how long do you think it’s gonna be before a bunch of noted Democrats take the side of the Ayatollah Khamenei, take the side of the Islamic Republic of Iran? In fact, it may already have happened. But if it hasn’t, it’s guaranteed. Here is the second sound bite. And again, Trump reinforces the idea that the Iranians will not get a nuclear weapon.
THE PRESIDENT: We cannot ever let Iran have a nuclear weapon and it won’t happen. And secondly, and very importantly, we don’t want money going out to sponsor terror. They are the number one sponsor of terror anywhere in the world. So I’ll sign this order right now and I want to thank our military, I want to thank all of the people that have been working with me over the last number of months on this. I think a lot of restraint has been shown by us, a lot of restraint, and that doesn’t mean we’re gonna show it in the future. But I felt that we want to give this a chance, give it a good chance because I think Iran potentially has a phenomenal future.
RUSH: So I guess it’s part of the pattern. The president, when announcing sanctions on an entity, company, country, always says, “If you guys straighten up, you know what? You could be phenomenal. If you join the nation of nations, if you join the right group of, you could have a phenomenal future.” He says this about Kim Jong-un. People have said it about Cuba. But it’s part of the Trump recipe here. But, man, he is not hesitant at all to take it to these people.
Now, folks, I’m gonna acknowledge that I’ve heard this. I don’t know if there’s any truth to it at all. And I have not seen it on what I consider a trustworthy website, source. But it’s the kind of thing that has happened before, so you don’t immediately discount it.
Remember last week when Trump announced that we were not gonna take military action, retaliatory action against the Iranians shooting down our drone, and the president said that he asked his military experts how many people would die in the operation. The president said they told him about 150. And the president said (paraphrasing , “They shoot down an unmanned drone, if we retaliate and 150 innocent people die, that’s not proportionate so we’re not gonna do it.”
Now, the stories that surfaced were that there were people in the White House meeting and there were some Democrats in the meeting, committee chairmen, who immediately made phone calls to Iran with the location of the attack, and that the Iranians then moved a hundred to 150 men, women, and children who are afraid of climate change into that location.
In other words, they weren’t there. So the bottom line is that there were people who sabotaged the operation by calling the Iranians and leaking the location so they could then move kids and women into it.
Now, as I say, there’s no proof for it, but that kind of thing is happening. The Democrats have a long history of aligning with American enemies. They did it with the Soviet Union when Reagan was president. They did it almost weekly when we had an ongoing dispute with the Soviet Union over the disposition of the state of Nicaragua and the Contras. They were undermining Reagan policy in Nicaragua openly.
They were sending Democrats down there and advising the Soviet client state leader Daniel Ortega what to do, what not to do, what to say, what not to say. He would say wrong things and they would send other Democrats down there to chastise him. George Miller from California was one of the big liaisons. Jim Jones of Oklahoma was another.
The Democrats have a history of this. They have a history of undermining Republican administrations with this kind of thing, even though there’s no proof for this. But it’s one of those things that you hear, you just don’t immediately discount it. You remain open to further proof coming in for it because it’s sadly not something that has not happened before. It has.

RUSH: Back in 1987 Pat Leahy, Vermont senator — Pat “Leaky” Leahy — tipped off Moammar Khadafy of an upcoming operation to destabilize his regime by the Reagan administration. Democrats have a track record of attempting to undermine Republican administration military operations.
That’s what they thought in 2016. How did that work out for them.
Our nation’s enemies already has plenty of secret intelligence agencies, and even managed to get them on our payrolls.
“Iran is stupid. Iran thinks they can influence foreign policy in the US by dealing with those who aren’t in power.”
It’s not stupid at all. Iran is firmly in control of their former enemy Iraq, courtesy of American idiots voting for Obama.
Too bad for Iraq. It didn’t help that Bushie went in either. That just proves Trump is smarter.

Here is the video (Piglosi and Schmanure were ecstatic...”
Okay, if Leaky Leahy tipped off Daffy of an operation against him, and the Federales know of it, why isn’t he in Ft. Leavenworth? Or, better yet, why isn’t he in an unmarked grave in a lonely place (so people won’t find it and piss on it) after being hanged as a traitor?
See, folks? Those are the chances that Comey, Mueller, et al, will pay for their crimes: absolutely none.
Great way to find out who leaks information.
Wake me up when someone is arrested
...stories ... surfaced ... there were people in the White House meeting and there were some Democrats in the meeting, committee chairmen, who immediately made phone calls to Iran with the location of the attack, and that the Iranians then moved a hundred to 150 men, women, and children who are afraid of climate change into that location. In other words, they weren’t there. So the bottom line is that there were people who sabotaged the operation by calling the Iranians and leaking the location ...
Think what a wonderful world it would be IF our 'intelligence' thugs worked FOR the country instead of working for corrupt liberal 'elites'...
These lines from rush are so chilling:

The thought that the Dems not only place their own power trips and careers and hatted of President Trump far above “service” to Americans-—but they will resort to aiding and assisting the Iranian enemy which has stated it intends to destroy The Great Satan (America and her people) is beyond belief.
The Iranians,Communist Chinese, Russians———— and Dems are our enemies. No sympathy will be granted.
And candid camera just happened to catch them celebrating. “These people are stupid”
No evidence whatsoever cited by Rush.
None.
Not even a second, non-corroborated report.
The Iranians,Communist Chinese, Russians———— and Dems are our enemies.... The dims are loyal to their party only.
They will do what ever it takes to get back in power including selling our country down the river.
You are consistently the only person here who looks for corroboration and verifiable source material before jumping to conclusions.
Yours is the better way.
I usually assume if a right winger says something on a website it must be true.
You are a good influence on me.
Thank you for the positive reply.
Of note: It comes at a cost.
Many here will deride somebody for questioning what they “know” to be true.
