RUSH: Despite Lanny Davis lying his butt off on every network, claiming that Michael Cohen had information that Trump had prior knowledge that Russia hacked the DNC… Have you heard about this? Have you heard about the two big lies Lanny Davis told? He went on cable news and told everybody that Cohen had proof that Trump knew about the Trump Tower meeting and encouraged it, and he said he had evidence/information that Trump had prior knowledge that Russia hacked the DNC emails. Lanny Davis said that Trump knew about the emails, the Podesta emails that WikiLeaks published before they...

RUSH: You know, some days it’s frustrating to go check the emails. Other days it’s inspiring. I found a couple emails. One yesterday, one today. “Why do you keep harping on the fact that Mueller is ignoring the Hillary side and going after Trump and it means something about his integrity?” Because, folks, the investigation cannot have any credibility if it ignores on the other side of this! This investigation is absent all credibility because it specifically ignores what happened on the Hillary side! Without what happened on the Hillary side, they would not have an investigation of Trump. That’s...

RUSH: So let’s see. A guy who has been known to the Drive-By Media for many years, but let’s just say the last four, has been considered a sleazebag, a shyster, a reprobate, an SOB, just a piece of scum, and that would be Michael Cohen. Today he is a man of paragon and virtue because the one thing that hasn’t changed — By the way, greetings. Great to have you, folks. Rush Limbaugh, the EIB Network. We’re at it for the next three hours. The one thing that hasn’t changed here, the one thing that all of this is...

RUSH: This Manafort trial, people are looking at this as a way to discredit Mueller, and the other side of it is hoping for a conviction of Manafort to justify Mueller and what he’s doing. And so this case is really not even about poor ol’ Paul Manafort. It’s about Mueller and his foolhardy, stupid, waste-of-time investigation. Well, anyway, the jurors in the Manafort trial yesterday sent the judge four questions. And one of the questions, the question that caught the attention of the Drive-By Media, which are the representatives of the American left or the Democrat Party. The jurors...

RUSH: A couple of weeks ago, and it might be three weeks ago now, I shocked many people in this audience unintentionally by predicting that at some point down the road the left is gonna figure out that the number one thing standing in their way to them acquiring perpetual power, which they think they are entitled to, the one thing standing in the way, they will conclude, is elections.And it will be not long from now... Not next election and not 2020. It's not gonna happen overnight. But it's gonna happen. The left is going to start... In fact,...

RUSH: Now, we are happy to welcome back to the program Dinesh D’Souza. His new movie is opening in a thousand theaters tonight. It is Death of a Nation. You’ve had a lot of success with your previous movies. Have you ever opened on a thousand screens? D’SOUZA: Uh, Rush, no. In the past, we’ve tended to open on limited screens and then spread out to more screens, so we do these pre-screenings to get us set up. But this time we decided to go for it, a thousand theaters nationwide and DeathOfaNationMovie.com is the way to find out where...

RUSH: The big news of the day today, I think, is two things. One is the president and his urging of the attorney general to end the Russia probe, to basically tell Mueller to shut it up. Now, what’s interesting about this is the president could do this himself in a sense. I’m not talking about firing Mueller. But he could declassify everything that we still don’t know about the origins of this investigation and the details. He still chooses not to do it, and the best-guess reason for that is the avoidance of a charge of obstruction of justice....

RUSH: So I have this note on the call screener computer: “On the hotline…” We don’t have a hotline. “On the hotline, you’re receiving a phone call in recognition of your anniversary broadcast. You’ll want to take this immediately.” Okay. So we’re going to the phones and we have a special guest. Who is it? THE PRESIDENT: So, Rush, I just wanted to congratulate you on 30 years.RUSH: (laughing)THE PRESIDENT: This is your favorite president, and I think you are fantastic.RUSH: (laughing)THE PRESIDENT: I heard about it, and today’s the big day, 30 years. I wanted to call personally and...

RUSH: Here is John in Rochester, New York. Great that you called. Glad you waited, sir. Hello. CALLER: Hello, Rush. It’s an honor and a pleasure to speak with you. I’m gonna get right to the point. It seems to me that you’re about to end the last show of your 30th year and nothing has been said about it yet. So I want to be the one who congratulates you and thanks you on behalf legions of Dittoheads and our Rush Babies like my children. You have meant so much to me. I’ve listened to you since you started,...

RUSH: I’d like to remind you what happened October 19, 2016. This is from the archives of the apoplectic and failing New York Times. You remember what happened on October 19, 2016? If you don’t, I’ll remind you. It was a debate. It was a debate between Trump and Hillary. Trump was asked a question by Chris Wallace of Fox News. (paraphrased exchange) “Mr. Trump, will you accept the results of the election if you lose? Will you concede?” and Trump said, “Nope. I’m not gonna tell you tonight that I’ll concede the election. I’m not gonna tell you what...

RUSH: Many things have become self-evident since we were last together, ladies and gentlemen. I am here to point them out to you. Although many of you are very smart and have probably figured this stuff out on your own, you no doubt enjoy hearing me say it because it validates what you already think. Greetings and welcome. Another exciting excursion into broadcast excellence is up and at ’em. Telephone number, if you want to join us, is 800-282-2882. The email address, ElRushbo@eibnet.us. Okay. So on a not-much-going-on Saturday — normally document dumps occur on Friday, but this one happened...

RUSH: Okay, back to this Axios poll. It’s a poll they took with SurveyMonkey, which is a credible bunch. They have a bar, Monkey Bar in New York, SurveyMonkey, same people. You knew that, right? “Brutal poll.” No, I’m making it up. People may not know when I’m kidding. I have to admit when I’m kidding more than ever today. “Democrats’ Senate Dream Slips Away.” They never had a realistic opportunity of taking the Senate. You know, this is another illustration. Ever since election night 2016 when Trump won, the whole mantra has been illegitimate, people don’t really mean this,...

RUSH: So I’m like everybody; I’m watching this last night, and there was a picture. There was a picture on my TV, and I guess it was around 9:30 or 10 o’clock, somewhere in that neighborhood. President Trump and Little Rocket Man were exiting whatever room they had spent some time in, and they were on the move. They were headed to their working lunch room. And I notice that as they’re walking along, Trump is kind of shepherding Little Rocket Man. Trump made sure he was right next to time, side by side. But Little Rocket Man seemed a...

Can someone post the Rush Limbaugh transcript for today’s show, 2nd hour 20 min. mark regarding the subject ‘We’re America B*tch!’? It was roughly 10 min. long and hilarious. The premise: a Trump hating journalist is asking everyone, ‘What is the Trump doctrine?’ while speculating on why there is NO doctrine. Finally he stumbles upon a WH aid who answers, We’re America B*tch! I’ve seen other articles referencing the phrase, but the way Rush built up the story with the classic punch line had me in stitches. I thought some FR would enjoy the comedy considering the heightened TDS today...

https://www.rushlimbaugh.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/05/APP-053018-rump-Signing-1.jpg You know the number of people who are diagnosed with terminal diseases who are willing to try anything — it’s their life — and all of the new things that are in experimental trials are just that. They’re in trials. They’re very difficult to get into, they are risky, and medical professionals try to talk you out of them. So people end up going to Mexico and Sweden, Switzerland, what have you. People have been willing to take these risks. And there’s been the concern about quackery in all of this, which is a legitimate concern. But this appears...

RUSH: So Hillary got some kind of a human rights, civil rights, plug-it-up rights, I don’t know what it was, at Yale, and she donned an old Soviet hat. She can’t get over it. She’s still whining and crying, and yet here’s Obama saying, “If you start whining before the game’s even over, if things are going badly, you start blaming somebody else, you don’t have what it takes to be in this job.” Hello, Hillary Clinton. Well, she doesn’t have what it takes to be in the job. She never has had what it takes to be in the...

RUSH: I now know who the spy is. I know now know who the FBI was running in the Trump campaign. I don’t think I’m gonna give you the name of the spy, but I’m gonna tell you everything the spy has done. It is the most amazing story. It is a story of entrapment. When you hear this, it’s gonna infuriate you. You’re gonna realize how utterly phony this entire investigation of Donald Trump is. It’s phonier than you even realize now. And there is a CliffsNotes version of this, and there is the intricate detailed version of this....

Rush: His whole thing is imploding now. The Mueller investigation is, I think, on the verge of it. And, by the way, I’m gonna give you a little heads-up here. Based on a Kimberley Strassel column last week, a Wall Street Journal editorial today and a Washington Post piece earlier this week, I actually believe the FBI planted an informant in the Trump campaign — before Mueller was appointed, obviously. This was in the summer of 2016, ’cause I think they believe this Russia stuff. I literally think… I’ve gone back and forth on this. I really think they believe…...

RUSH: To New York City. John, great to have you. I’m glad you waited. How are you doing, sir? CALLER: Okay. I’d like to speak about the pen register on Michael Cohen’s phone. RUSH: Yes, sir. On his office and home and apartment and so forth? Yeah. CALLER: All right. Let me explain about how a pen register works. It’s the same… It is a wiretap. The only thing is the court order doesn’t allow you to listen in. But you can listen in illegally. You can attach a listening device — a phone — and a recording device on...

SNIP>> CAPUTO: Not just me. I think other people too. I mean, a tin cup isn’t a good look, but I’ve had to open a GoFundMe page. I certainly didn’t sign up for this when I went to work for the Trump campaign. And I will never, ever work on another Republican campaign for as long as I live. I think that’s part of this, Tucker. I think this is a punishment strategy. I think they want to destroy the president. They want to destroy his family. They want to destroy his businesses. They want to destroy his friends so...
