WATCH: Sen. Ron Johnson Demands Answers From Director Wray On Why The FBI Has Been ‘Investigating’ Hunter Biden Laptop For A YEAR

Senator Johnson says that Americans need to know whether the information on the alleged Hunter Biden laptop is Russian disinformation , if it ’ s fraudulent , or if it ’ s accurate .
The explosive New York Post story about the information from a laptop believed to have belonged to Hunter Biden contained incriminating photos , a sex tape , personal text messages with his family , and thousands of work-related emails .
It ’ s the classic “ big if true ” story , but it seems that the actions taken around the laptop are also becoming big @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the censorship of Tech Giants who were running interference for Democrats — Facebook announced that it would “ reduce the reach ” for the article , while Twitter flat-out banned the sharing of it and has locked out a 200-year old newspaper from posting unless they delete the tweets linking to their own articles .
It has also been revealed that the FBI has known about the laptop since December of last year and , despite the incriminating emails that were on that hard drive — some of which have been confirmed by @ @ @ @ @ @ @ was no mention of that as Democrats were in the process of impeaching President Trump for alleged quid pro quo in a phone call with the newly-elected President of Ukraine .
That seems rather Deep State-ish .
Senator Ron Johnson ( R-WI ) has sent a letter to FBI Director Christopher Wray demanding answers .
Senator Johnson is the head of the Senate Homeland Security Committee and said that the committee was contacted by a whistleblower in September 2019 and told of a laptop that had been left in a Delaware repair shop @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Hunter Biden .
In the letter , Senator Johnson was pretty clear with his line of questioning — he wants to get to the bottom of why it ’ s taken so bloody long to hear anything about the laptop one way or the other .
It ’ s literally the question , “ what did the FBI know and when did they know it ?
” Senator Johnson appeared on Maria Bartiromo ’ s Fox News show , Sunday Morning Futures , to discuss his letter to Director Wray .
In the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ a whistleblower contacted his committee on September 24 regarding Hunter Biden ’ s hard drive , which was left water damaged at a computer repair shop .
The owner told the committee that he handed the MacBook laptop over to the FBI .
Johnson noted in his letter that his staff immediately asked the FBI to confirm or deny certain details to better validate the claim made by the whistleblower , but the bureau said they would not comment on any of the information .
‘ [ T ] he committee must know @ @ @ @ @ @ @ of materials the whistleblower has provided , and what , if any , actions the FBI has taken since obtaining this information , ’ Johnson continued in his note to Wray .
The Wisconsin Republican senator said his questions about what the FBI knew about what was found on Hunter Biden ’ s hard drive and when they knew it speaks to a ‘ larger issue.
’ ‘ Why did they sit on it ?
Are they covering up just because Hunter Biden might be engaged in things that also maybe should have @ @ @ @ @ @ @ we have two systems of justice : one for Democrats and one for Republicans ?
One for the well-connected versus one for the rest of the Americans ?
’ he asked the Fox News host .
During the discussion on the show , some very interesting facts came out .
Senator Johnson said that there was a Grand Jury subpoena to take custody of the laptop in December 2019 — in the middle of the Trump impeachment investigation .
He also said that the Biden campaign ’ s response to the entire story @ @ @ @ @ @ @ have only said that there was no “ official ” meeting with the Burisma executive .
What was also pretty odd is that the FBI agent who served the subpoena for the laptop has been investigating “ child pornography issues ” for the past five years .
Considering the recent Senate Report on Hunter Biden ’ s Ukraine corruption included possible ties to a suspected human trafficking ring , that seems like something that should be investigated further .
BOMBSHELL : Senate Report On Hunter Biden Corruption Is DEVASTATING–Ties To Ukraine , China @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Ring The laptop may very well be Hunter Biden ’ s laptop , but if it isn ’ t , that means that there is a whole host of other problems .
• “ The FBI has a duty to inform us .
If they believe this was maybe Russian disinformation , they should give us a defensive briefing.
” • “ If , for example , they also believe that what information this whistleblower gave us is fraudulent , that would also be a crime , and FBI should tell us that.
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ — all these connections this could be used as blackmail against a Biden presidency far in excess of anything that was alleged against Donald Trump.
” If the laptop is fraudulent but the result of hacking Hunter Biden ’ s iCloud account , then that means that there is a likelihood that foreign entities already have those damning and embarrassing texts , photos , and videos .
Senator Johnson and the Senate Homeland Security Committee are trying to get to the bottom of this with just two weeks until election day and the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ for the Biden campaign .
This kind of Deep State thing just shows how necessary Trump ’ s election in 2016 mattered and why it matters even more now .

Senator Johnson says that Americans need to know whether the information on the alleged Hunter Biden laptop is Russian disinformation, if it’s fraudulent, or if it’s accurate.
The explosive New York Post story about the information from a laptop believed to have belonged to Hunter Biden contained incriminating photos, a sex tape, personal text messages with his family, and thousands of work-related emails.
It’s the classic “big if true” story, but it seems that the actions taken around the laptop are also becoming big stories themselves.
First, there is the censorship of Tech Giants who were running interference for Democrats — Facebook announced that it would “reduce the reach” for the article, while Twitter flat-out banned the sharing of it and has locked out a 200-year old newspaper from posting unless they delete the tweets linking to their own articles.
It has also been revealed that the FBI has known about the laptop since December of last year and, despite the incriminating emails that were on that hard drive — some of which have been confirmed by parties connected to Hunter Biden — there was no mention of that as Democrats were in the process of impeaching President Trump for alleged quid pro quo in a phone call with the newly-elected President of Ukraine.
That seems rather Deep State-ish.

In the letter to Wray, Johnson details that a whistleblower contacted his committee on September 24 regarding Hunter Biden’s hard drive, which was left water damaged at a computer repair shop. The owner told the committee that he handed the MacBook laptop over to the FBI. Johnson noted in his letter that his staff immediately asked the FBI to confirm or deny certain details to better validate the claim made by the whistleblower, but the bureau said they would not comment on any of the information. ‘[T]he committee must know whether the FBI has assessed the validity of materials the whistleblower has provided, and what, if any, actions the FBI has taken since obtaining this information,’ Johnson continued in his note to Wray. The Wisconsin Republican senator said his questions about what the FBI knew about what was found on Hunter Biden’s hard drive and when they knew it speaks to a ‘larger issue.’ ‘Why did they sit on it?

The laptop may very well be Hunter Biden’s laptop, but if it isn’t, that means that there is a whole host of other problems.
As Senator Johnson noted:
“The FBI has a duty to inform us. If they believe this was maybe Russian disinformation, they should give us a defensive briefing.”
“If, for example, they also believe that what information this whistleblower gave us is fraudulent, that would also be a crime, and FBI should tell us that.”
“If these vast webs — all these connections this could be used as blackmail against a Biden presidency far in excess of anything that was alleged against Donald Trump.”
If the laptop is fraudulent but the result of hacking Hunter Biden’s iCloud account, then that means that there is a likelihood that foreign entities already have those damning and embarrassing texts, photos, and videos.
Senator Johnson and the Senate Homeland Security Committee are trying to get to the bottom of this with just two weeks until election day and the media and social media are running interference for the Biden campaign.
This kind of Deep State thing just shows how necessary Trump’s election in 2016 mattered and why it matters even more now.

Hypocrites Without Masks

There is a scene from the movie Casino in which Sam “ Ace ” Rothstein ( portrayed by Robert De Niro and based on real-life gambler Frank Rosenthal ) is denied his gaming license during what would be a routine hearing .
Rothstein responds to the abrupt denial of his license ( since he was told he would have a fair hearing ) by accusing the members of the commission of corruption and hypocrisy , even going so far as to say that they think they have the right to pass judgment on others .
The same can be said @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to wear masks or are forbidding them from traveling due to the pandemic , but don ’ t bother to wear masks themselves .
Here are some examples : • House Speaker Nancy Pelosi has called for mandating everyone in the country to wear a mask , and has even ordered that any member of the House of Representatives not wearing a mask to be forcibly removed .
Yet at least twice she was seen not wearing a mask herself — the first instance being when she met with George Floyd ’ s @ @ @ @ @ @ @ visit to a salon in California that was supposed to be closed .
• New York Governor Andrew Cuomo has criticized others for not wearing masks but was seen not wearing one while he signed an anti-police bill ( nor was anyone standing near him wearing a mask when he signed it ) .
• Washington , D.C. Mayor Muriel Bowser has ordered everyone in that city to wear a mask outside their homes , e.g .
riding a bus , ordering food at a restaurant , sitting in their cubicles at work @ @ @ @ @ @ @ children under the age of three and federal employees .
She even sent investigators to the Trump International Hotel because President Trump was not wearing a mask .
Yet she was seen not wearing a mask at various press conferences and at a George Floyd rally .
• Oregon Governor Kate Brown has mandated that everyone in the Beaver State wear a mask , but she , along with her family and security detail , were all spotted without masks .
• Senator Diane Feinstein wanted the FAA to require all travelers and @ @ @ @ @ @ @ she was spotted at airport without one .
• Virginia Governor Ralph Northam ordered everyone in that state to wear a mask , but he was once spotted at the beach not wearing one .
• Illinois Governor J.B. Pritzker has told the residents of that state to stay home in order to prevent spreading the coronavirus while he and his family travel to their properties in Florida and Wisconsin ( the latter having construction done by workers from Chicago ) .
• Michigan Governor Gretchen Whitmer has banned almost everything in that @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to use a boat for Memorial Day activities .
• Jim Acosta and Kaitlan Collins of CNN complain about President Trump not wearing a mask , yet they don ’ t bother to wear one .
• A reporter for MSNBC once complained about people not wearing masks , despite the fact that half of his crew ( including the cameraman ) weren ’ t wearing masks .

TROY AIKMAN: That’s a lot of jet fuel just to do a little flyover.
JOE BUCK: That’s your hard-earned money and your tax dollars at work!
AIKMAN: That stuff ain’t happening with [a] Kamala-Biden ticket. I’ll tell you that right now, partner. –BroBible
No, you are just another interchangeable woke commentator who hates the military specifically, and the traditions of America more generally. Another cog in the left’s ‘woke’ machine.
Even his argument against flyovers makes no real sense.
According to Newsweek, these flyovers serve a role in both recruiting and in training.
Air Force Spokeswoman Jennifer Bentley told Stars and Stripes that although it is unclear exactly how much of a recruitment boost flyovers give, they remain “a way for the U.S. Air Force to showcase the capabilities of our aircraft while at the same time inspire a future generation. “We are increasing the number of events eligible for support to assist with recruiting efforts and in telling the Air Force story,” she said. …The costs of flyovers are deducted from the training budget of the branch that takes part, and the time involved does count towards pilots’ training, however limited and simple the flyby may be. Past flybys have been criticized as a waste of money, especially after the 2011 Super Bowl in Dallas, when jets flew low over the stadium’s closed roof at a reported cost of $450,000. –NewsWeek
Rather than the costs to taxpayers of flyovers, they might want to think about the costs of preening little blowhards like themselves on a league that’s bleeding viewership.
That flyby ‘problem’ they are worried about can solve itself if there’s nobody in the stadium to see it.
Of course, that would mean they’re off looking for other work.
(Hopefully something they’re more suited for than what they’re doing now… unless ‘driving away fans’ was part of the grand plan all along.)

clashdaily--2020-10-20--What The Hunter Biden Texts And Emails Reveal About Joe Biden As A Father

Text exchanges between Hunter Biden and his family members published by the New York Post reveal quite a bit about Joe Biden , and , frankly , it isn ’ t very good .
There has been much noise made about Hunter Biden ’ s addictions , strip club visits , and personal problems .
I get it .
We ’ ve highlighted those newsworthy tidbits here at ClashDaily .
Those kinds of salacious stories generate lots of clicks because people want to read them .
And , frankly , he ’ s fair game .
Hunter Biden is a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ 50-year old son of the former Vice President who is now running for President .
Hunter ’ s actions could indeed pose national security risks as blackmail fodder for foreign entities .
The New Yorker posed the question in July 2019 , Will Hunter Biden Jeopardize His Father ’ s Campaign ?
in a piece that detailed decades of addiction , car accidents , dalliances , a messy divorce , and personal financial mismanagement .
But this piece isn ’ t going to be slagging Hunter for his personal issues , it ’ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ has at best allowed his son — at worst used — a clearly broken man as the fall guy for a corrupt pay-to-play scheme that involves several of the Bidens .
The New York Post has released personal texts which appear to be between Hunter Biden and several of his family members .
When these personal exchanges are taken together , they reveal something : Joe Biden is a shitty dad .
The NY Post article says that the texts show Joe “ offering fatherly comfort ” to his son in rehab .
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ that way .
For all of the heartfelt messages that Joe sent to “ his beautiful son ” Hunter while the younger Biden was holed away in rehab , there ’ s a cloud of co-dependency that hovers over this particular relationship .
The messages between Hunter and his daughter , as well as the open way that Hunter speaks of himself to his father during the rehab stint , paints a picture of a son who is desperate for approval and is being used by an avaricious politician to line his pockets @ @ @ @ @ @ @ officials are subject to .
Some of Hunter ’ s problems could be from his difficult time growing up .
He ’ s had so much loss .
He lost his mother and baby sister in a car accident when he was just 2 years old .
He and his older brother were also in the car but survived .
His father then remarried and had another daughter .
Just as Hunter ’ s life was yo-yo-ing between success and failure , his brother , Beau — just a year and a day @ @ @ @ @ @ @ 2015 .
It ’ s clear that Beau , not Hunter , was the favored son .
He was squeaky clean , with a beautiful wife , beautiful family , and a near-stellar personal and professional record .
Joseph Robinette “ Beau ” Biden III was just 46 years old when he died .
Beau had been a member of the Delaware Army National Guard and was deployed to Iraq in 2008 .
He was awarded a Bronze Star for his service .
Beau was elected the Attorney General of Delaware , and @ @ @ @ @ @ @ his seat in the Senate , was considered as a likely candidate to run in a special election to fill it , but he was committed to finishing his term as the AG for Delaware .
When Beau died , he was preparing to run for Governor of Delaware .
Joe Biden has said that he thought Beau could one day have been President .
On September 29 , 2020 , Town & Country magazine published an article about Beau Biden .
It described Joe ’ s relationship with Beau this way : @ @ @ @ @ @ @ son ” and it ’ s positive , he ’ s always talking about Beau , not Hunter .
Just look at Joe ’ s reaction at the first Presidential debate when he tries to shiv Trump with the debunked “ suckers ” and “ losers ” claim .
He speaks glowingly about Beau , but when Trump notes that Hunter was booted out of the Navy for cocaine use , Joe lied saying that it wasn ’ t true .
This was widely reported and perhaps Joe realized it , so he @ @ @ @ @ @ @ problem , but he ’ s kicked it and he ’ s proud of him for it .
There was a video about Beau shown at the Democratic National Convention this year as his father was preparing to accept the party ’ s nomination .
Here ’ s how Joe shared that video on Twitter .
In a statement after Beau ’ s death , Joe wrote , “ Beau Biden was , quite simply , the finest man any of us have ever known.
” Joe also wrote a memoir about Beau @ @ @ @ @ @ @ almost too much to bear .
He wrote that Beau was “ Joe Biden 2.0… who had all the best of me , but with the bugs and flaws engineered out.
” Hunter isn ’ t competing for approval with a perfect son , he ’ s competing for approval with the memory of a perfect son .
Hunter , like many people , has made some pretty awful decisions that have hounded him and he can ’ t seem to shake off .
But there ’ s a sense of obligation that @ @ @ @ @ @ @ be commendable if it weren ’ t so toxic .
In a text revealed by Rudy Giuliani between Hunter and his 26-year old daughter , Naomi , who was asking for money , Hunter writes : This text message shifts the focus on the foreign business deals from Hunter to Joe who has seemingly coerced his son into giving him half of his salary .
Although Joe has always been at the center of the Biden clan ’ s ability to generate cash with foreign business deals because of his decades as a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ for 8 years , this text appears to show that Joe was a driving force in Hunter ’ s peddling the Biden name and access to a prominent U.S. politician to foreign entities .
How else do you explain the demand for half of Hunter ’ s salary that was consistently made with entities that had interests that Joe Biden was involved in handling ?
In 2008 , Tom Brokaw grilled Obama ’ s recently named running mate , then-Senator Joe Biden , on Hunter ’ s straight-out-of law school hiring by a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ interests in a bankruptcy bill that was being discussed in the Senate .
CBS covered this here : MBNA Paid Biden ’ s Son As Biden Backed Bill .
On July 20 , 2019 , ABC News reported on Hunter ’ s foreign business deals and noted that Joe Biden has consistently avoided speaking about them .
A year after the death of Beau , Popular Mechanics interviewed the two Biden men discussing their love of cars and their relationship .
During that interview , Hunter said that the most important lesson that @ @ @ @ @ @ @ “ family comes first .
Over everything .
I can ’ t think of anything that has been more pervasive and played a larger part in my life than that simple lesson.
” When talking about how Joe has pushed through tragedy , Hunter said , “ No matter what , you get up .
No matter what , you fulfill your responsibilities .
No matter what , you are there for the people who love you and who you love.
” Joe , for his part in the interview , said of @ @ @ @ @ @ @ everything in our family was built on the notion of honor… I ’ d been accused of plagiarism and cheating—I always turned out to be exonerated.
” We know that ’ s not true .
But then , Joe is a known liar and frankly , not a very good person .
Joe Biden knew all about Hunter ’ s issues and that if the pay-to-play came to light , it would be Hunter that would face the music .
He knew that , and chose to run for President anyway .
What @ @ @ @ @ @ @ I ’ m not the only one who thinks this .
As I took a break from writing this article , none other than Rush Limbaugh himself said essentially the same thing .
Who does this to their kid ?
It is evidence that Hunter — to me , anyway — had at least for a while some sort of a normal life .
He had a pretty wife , he had three kids , three daughters .
And then during the Obama years his life spins out of control .
He ends @ @ @ @ @ @ @ of his brother .
He has a baby with some girl in Arkansas .
There are lawsuits .
He gets kicked out of the military .
There ’ s a messy divorce with massive issues on bad financials .
So he self-medicates to live through what he knew to be wrong activities pushed on him by his father who was taking half of the money Hunter was being paid .
That ’ s how the arrangement worked .
I may be too big a softy , but I think Hunter is not to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , there are all kinds of jokes on social media about it .
Trump has joked too .
I don ’ t know if Rush is right — he generally is — but it certainly sounds plausible to me .
Let ’ s go back to the Popular Mechanics interview : Yes , Joe .
That ’ s precisely what the emails appear to show — that you did everything together including influence-peddling .
Perhaps that ’ s why Joe has decided to hide until the debate .
There is a now-exposed trail @ @ @ @ @ @ @ suspected — that it ’ s weird for Joe Biden , who has said for years that he didn ’ t have a lot of money and lived on a government salary , to become super-rich .
He was getting half of Hunter ’ s salary , which was for the Burisma board alone , $ 50,000 to $ 83,000 per month .
Now , if Hunter goes down , so does Quid Pro Joe .

Text exchanges between Hunter Biden and his family members published by the New York Post reveal quite a bit about Joe Biden, and, frankly, it isn’t very good.
It’s pretty clear that Hunter Biden is a troubled man.
There has been much noise made about Hunter Biden’s addictions, strip club visits, and personal problems. I get it. We’ve highlighted those newsworthy tidbits here at ClashDaily. Those kinds of salacious stories generate lots of clicks because people want to read them. And, frankly, he’s fair game. Hunter Biden is a grown-ass man. He’s the 50-year old son of the former Vice President who is now running for President. Hunter’s actions could indeed pose national security risks as blackmail fodder for foreign entities.
The New Yorker posed the question in July 2019, Will Hunter Biden Jeopardize His Father’s Campaign? in a piece that detailed decades of addiction, car accidents, dalliances, a messy divorce, and personal financial mismanagement.

The New York Post has released personal texts which appear to be between Hunter Biden and several of his family members. When these personal exchanges are taken together, they reveal something: Joe Biden is a shitty dad.
The NY Post article says that the texts show Joe “offering fatherly comfort” to his son in rehab. On their own, it does appear that way.
“Good morning my beautiful son. I miss you and love you. Dad,” the elder Biden wrote at 6:57 a.m. Hunter responded with a lengthy diatribe about his ex-wife, Kathleen Buhle, and his father’s political advisers, and he also complained bitterly about a conversation with his sister-in-law-turned-lover, Hallie Biden. “For f–ks sake hallie for the first time [in] 17 days talks to me to say im an embarrassment. To MY family,” Hunter wrote. He then admitted, “Well dad, the truth is as you and hallie point out — I am a f–ked up addict that cant be…Trusted relied upon nor defended.” Source: New York Post (Emphasis Added)
For all of the heartfelt messages that Joe sent to “his beautiful son” Hunter while the younger Biden was holed away in rehab, there’s a cloud of co-dependency that hovers over this particular relationship.
The messages between Hunter and his daughter, as well as the open way that Hunter speaks of himself to his father during the rehab stint, paints a picture of a son who is desperate for approval and is being used by an avaricious politician to line his pockets while avoiding the financial scrutiny that government officials are subject to.
Joe hasn’t made Hunter’s life easy.
Some of Hunter’s problems could be from his difficult time growing up. He’s had so much loss. He lost his mother and baby sister in a car accident when he was just 2 years old. He and his older brother were also in the car but survived. His father then remarried and had another daughter. Just as Hunter’s life was yo-yo-ing between success and failure, his brother, Beau — just a year and a day older — died of brain cancer in 2015.
It’s clear that Beau, not Hunter, was the favored son. He was squeaky clean, with a beautiful wife, beautiful family, and a near-stellar personal and professional record.

When Beau died, he was preparing to run for Governor of Delaware. Joe Biden has said that he thought Beau could one day have been President.
On September 29, 2020, Town & Country magazine published an article about Beau Biden. It described Joe’s relationship with Beau this way:
It really is no secret that Beau was Biden’s favorite son. He had most closely followed in his father’s footsteps into a career in service, serving as the attorney general of Delaware, and, at the time of his death, preparing for a run for governor. And unlike his brother Hunter, Beau lived a fairly scandal-free life. He was a major presence on the campaign trails in 2008 and 2012, when his father ran as President Barack Obama’s running mate.
When Joe Biden speaks of “my son” and it’s positive, he’s always talking about Beau, not Hunter.
Just look at Joe’s reaction at the first Presidential debate when he tries to shiv Trump with the debunked “suckers” and “losers” claim. He speaks glowingly about Beau, but when Trump notes that Hunter was booted out of the Navy for cocaine use, Joe lied saying that it wasn’t true. This was widely reported and perhaps Joe realized it, so he admitted that Hunter did have a drug problem, but he’s kicked it and he’s proud of him for it.
There was a video about Beau shown at the Democratic National Convention this year as his father was preparing to accept the party’s nomination.
Here’s how Joe shared that video on Twitter.

In a text revealed by Rudy Giuliani between Hunter and his 26-year old daughter, Naomi, who was asking for money, Hunter writes:
But I don’t receive any respect and that’s fine I guess. Works for you, apparently. I hope you all can do what I did and pay for everything for this entire family for 30 years. It’s really hard, but don’t worry, unlike Pop I won’t make you give me half your salary.

I don’t know if Rush is right — he generally is — but it certainly sounds plausible to me.
Let’s go back to the Popular Mechanics interview:
HUNTER: He can’t say it, but I can say it: He wasn’t just a good dad. He wasn’t just a great dad. I know a lot of great dads. And I know a lot of people that have great relationships with their father. He was—he is still—an extraordinary dad. If I could be half the father— JOE [almost in a whisper]: He is. HUNTER: —to my children that he has been, I’d be a success in my entire life, no matter what else happened. We don’t have a complicated relationship. And the reason we don’t have a complicated relationship is that I know that no matter what, he loves me, and no matter what, I love him more than anything in the world. And I guess that’s the root of all of it. We did everything together. JOE: I mean everything.
Yes, Joe. That’s precisely what the emails appear to show — that you did everything together including influence-peddling.
Perhaps that’s why Joe has decided to hide until the debate.
There is a now-exposed trail of messages confirming what we had all suspected — that it’s weird for Joe Biden, who has said for years that he didn’t have a lot of money and lived on a government salary, to become super-rich. He was getting half of Hunter’s salary, which was for the Burisma board alone, $50,000 to $83,000 per month.
Now, if Hunter goes down, so does Quid Pro Joe.

Rush Limbaugh Gives Cancer Update … Gets Uncharacteristically Candid About ‘Death Sentence’ Prognosis

One of the things that helped Rush Limbaugh to basically invent his own radio genre and become the gold standard by which others were measured was his being a ‘ happy warrior ’ .
He held a high view of human potential , of what can happen if you show up to a worthwhile fight , and what can be accomplished when you really put your mind to something .
He demonstrated an ability to connect with his audience on a deep level .
When El Rushbo announced his serious lung cancer diagnosis , it was ( for many ) @ @ @ @ @ @ @ family member ’ s diagnosis .
Rush isn ’ t one to whine about his situation , he ’ s got a very realistic picture of his place in the world , but he figured his listeners were due an update .
There are some somber moments , some joyful ones , and an overall sense of God being in control of it all , come what may .
What follows are excerpts from the transcript of Monday ’ s October 19th ’ s show ( you will see why the date becomes @ @ @ @ @ @ @ there are lots of ups and downs in this particular illness .
And it can feel like a roller coaster at times that you can ’ t get off of .
And again , I want to stress here that I know countless numbers of you are experiencing the same thing .
If it isn ’ t lung cancer , it ’ s some kind of cancer .
If it isn ’ t you , it ’ s somebody really close to you .
If it isn ’ t an illness , it @ @ @ @ @ @ @ all going through challenges .
Mine are no better and mine are no different and mine are no more special than anybody else .
But it can feel like a roller coaster .
…And at some point you can decide , you know , this medication may be working , but I hate the way I feel every day .
I ’ m not there yet .
But it is part and parcel of this .
It ’ s tough to realize that the days where I do not think I ’ m @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Now , we all are , is the point .
We all know that we ’ re going to die at some point , but when you have a terminal disease diagnosis that has a time frame to it , then that puts a different psychological and even physical awareness to it .
[ emphasis added ] So , last week was treatment week .
Was it last week ?
The week before .
The week before was treatment week .
And I got some scans .
I don ’ t get scans @ @ @ @ @ @ @ show some progression of cancer .
…So we have to tweak the treatment plan , which we did , and the chemotherapy drugs in hopes of keeping additional progression at bay for as long as possible .
The idea now is to keep it where it is or maybe have it reduce again .
We ’ ve shown that that is possible .
If it happened once , it can happen again .
So that ’ s the objective of the current treatment plan .
…You know , all in all , I @ @ @ @ @ @ @ with you today .
Some days are harder than others .
I do get fatigued now .
I do get very , very tired now .
I ’ m not gon na mislead you about that .
But I am extremely grateful to be able to come here to the studio and to maintain as much normalcy as possible — and it ’ s still true .
You know , I wake up every day and thank God that I did .
I go to bed every night praying I ’ m gon @ @ @ @ @ @ @ t know how many of you do that , those of you who are not sick , those of you who are not facing something like I and countless other millions are .
But it ’ s a blessing when you wake up .
It ’ s a stop-everything-and-thank-God moment .
And every day , thus , results in me feeling more and more blessed .
Hearing from you , knowing that you ’ re out there praying and everything else you ’ re doing , that is a blessing .
It ’ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ And I am grateful to be able to come here to the studio , tell you about it , and really maintain as much normalcy as I can .
I know a lot of you out there are going through your own challenges , whether it ’ s cancer or another medical illness or some other life challenge .
Maybe even in the hospital right now .
Someone told me — I think this is good advice , may be helpful — the only thing that any of us are certain of is @ @ @ @ @ @ @ s why I thank God every morning when I wake up .
I thank God that I did .
I try to make it the best day I can no matter what .
I don ’ t look too far ahead .
I certainly don ’ t look too far back .
I try to remain committed to the idea what ’ s supposed to happen , will happen when it ’ s meant to .
I mentioned at the outset of this — the first day I told you — that I @ @ @ @ @ @ @ It is of immense value , strength , confidence , and that ’ s why I ’ m able to remain fully committed to the idea that what is supposed to happen will happen when it ’ s meant to .
There ’ s some comfort in knowing that some things are not in our hands .

So now the objective here is rounding third , not having to head back to second base and slide in there .
Here ’ s to rounding third and heading towards home .
That ’ s the objective .
That ’ s the goal .
RUSH : Ladies and gentlemen , let me share one more thing with @ @ @ @ @ @ @ want to be morbid here .
But to me , this is the ultimate good news — the ultimate upbeat , positive way to react to what ’ s happening .
Late January , whenever it was , is when I got this diagnosis .
Folks , the kind of cancer I have… I ’ ve never publicized what it is .
It ’ s just stage 4 lung cancer .
But let me just put it to you this way : It was hopeless .
It was absolutely hopeless .
Yet a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ first two of them failed .
( chuckling ) I mean , big-time failed .
The third one ?
Magic !
It worked .
That ’ s where we were able , over the course of months , to render the cancer dormant .
[ ‘ dormant ’ is his own non-clinical turn of phrase for it ] I ’ ll just put it to you this way : After receiving the diagnosis , I never thought I would see October 1st .
I never thought I would .
When October 1st hit @ @ @ @ @ @ @ reminded myself of that — of that thought .
If we go back to the end of January , early part of February when I was first told of my diagnosis and the reaction… The doctor said , “ If you don ’ t do anything , we ’ re looking here at a couple of months .
If you look at treatment , if it works , we ’ re looking at… ” And then they wouldn ’ t give me a time .
They still won ’ t .
They won @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ’ m just gon na tell you , there is no way back in January and February that I had anything but hope that I would still be alive on this day , October 19th , and that I would be fully productive working .
There was no way .
I didn ’ t share that with anybody .
So given that as a starting point , given that as a baseline , I ’ m kicking butt — and the future remains pretty good-looking , given all of that .
This is @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to keep everything in perspective on a day-to-day basis and to realize that you just don ’ t know .
Nobody does , and you have to give every day… You know , I ’ ve loved to point out we all only get one life .
We don ’ t get a do-over in the… Well , we do .
Actually , we get a do-over every day if we choose to look at it that way .
Once we ’ re old enough and mature enough to understand what life is @ @ @ @ @ @ @ then you do get do-overs , an opportunity to fix what you think you might not have done so well the day before , which is an operative philosophy of mine .
But the fact that I have that option and that opportunity compared to where I thought I would be at this time ?
I mean , that ’ s “ go get the hallelujah chorus and have ’ em start singing to me , ” because that ’ s exactly where this is — and the future ?
Far more optimistic @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , because of the support systems I have , the people that are helping me , family .
Ooh !
Anyway , that ’ s it .

One of the things that helped Rush Limbaugh to basically invent his own radio genre and become the gold standard by which others were measured was his being a ‘happy warrior’.
He held a high view of human potential, of what can happen if you show up to a worthwhile fight, and what can be accomplished when you really put your mind to something. He demonstrated an ability to connect with his audience on a deep level.
When El Rushbo announced his serious lung cancer diagnosis, it was (for many) almost as shocking as hearing about a family member’s diagnosis.
Rush isn’t one to whine about his situation, he’s got a very realistic picture of his place in the world, but he figured his listeners were due an update.
There are some somber moments, some joyful ones, and an overall sense of God being in control of it all, come what may.
What follows are excerpts from the transcript of Monday’s October 19th’s show (you will see why the date becomes important):
In a nutshell, there are lots of ups and downs in this particular illness. And it can feel like a roller coaster at times that you can’t get off of. And again, I want to stress here that I know countless numbers of you are experiencing the same thing. If it isn’t lung cancer, it’s some kind of cancer. If it isn’t you, it’s somebody really close to you. If it isn’t an illness, it’s something. We’re all going through challenges. Mine are no better and mine are no different and mine are no more special than anybody else. But it can feel like a roller coaster.
…And at some point you can decide, you know, this medication may be working, but I hate the way I feel every day. I’m not there yet. But it is part and parcel of this. It’s tough to realize that the days where I do not think I’m under a death sentence are over. Now, we all are, is the point. We all know that we’re going to die at some point, but when you have a terminal disease diagnosis that has a time frame to it, then that puts a different psychological and even physical awareness to it. [emphasis added]
So, last week was treatment week. Was it last week? The week before. The week before was treatment week. And I got some scans. I don’t get scans every treatment week. The scans did show some progression of cancer.
…So we have to tweak the treatment plan, which we did, and the chemotherapy drugs in hopes of keeping additional progression at bay for as long as possible. The idea now is to keep it where it is or maybe have it reduce again. We’ve shown that that is possible. If it happened once, it can happen again. So that’s the objective of the current treatment plan.
…You know, all in all, I feel very blessed to be here speaking with you today. Some days are harder than others. I do get fatigued now. I do get very, very tired now. I’m not gonna mislead you about that. But I am extremely grateful to be able to come here to the studio and to maintain as much normalcy as possible — and it’s still true.
You know, I wake up every day and thank God that I did. I go to bed every night praying I’m gonna wake up. I don’t know how many of you do that, those of you who are not sick, those of you who are not facing something like I and countless other millions are. But it’s a blessing when you wake up. It’s a stop-everything-and-thank-God moment.
And every day, thus, results in me feeling more and more blessed. Hearing from you, knowing that you’re out there praying and everything else you’re doing, that is a blessing. It’s just a series of blessings. And I am grateful to be able to come here to the studio, tell you about it, and really maintain as much normalcy as I can.
I know a lot of you out there are going through your own challenges, whether it’s cancer or another medical illness or some other life challenge. Maybe even in the hospital right now. Someone told me — I think this is good advice, may be helpful — the only thing that any of us are certain of is right now, today. That’s why I thank God every morning when I wake up.
I thank God that I did. I try to make it the best day I can no matter what. I don’t look too far ahead. I certainly don’t look too far back. I try to remain committed to the idea what’s supposed to happen, will happen when it’s meant to. I mentioned at the outset of this — the first day I told you — that I have personal relationship with Jesus Christ.
It is of immense value, strength, confidence, and that’s why I’m able to remain fully committed to the idea that what is supposed to happen will happen when it’s meant to. There’s some comfort in knowing that some things are not in our hands. There’s a lot of fear associated with that, too, but there is some comfort. It’s helpful… God, is it helpful. It’s helpful to be able to trust and to believe in a higher plan.
So again, let me just thank all of you for your support, your prayers. I send the same to all of you through anything that you are facing. So now the objective here is rounding third, not having to head back to second base and slide in there. Here’s to rounding third and heading towards home. That’s the objective. That’s the goal.

RUSH: Ladies and gentlemen, let me share one more thing with you — and I don’t want to be morbid here. But to me, this is the ultimate good news — the ultimate upbeat, positive way to react to what’s happening. Late January, whenever it was, is when I got this diagnosis. Folks, the kind of cancer I have…
I’ve never publicized what it is. It’s just stage 4 lung cancer. But let me just put it to you this way: It was hopeless. It was absolutely hopeless. Yet a treatment regimen was begun, and the first two of them failed. (chuckling) I mean, big-time failed. The third one? Magic! It worked. That’s where we were able, over the course of months, to render the cancer dormant. [‘dormant’ is his own non-clinical turn of phrase for it]
I’ll just put it to you this way: After receiving the diagnosis, I never thought I would see October 1st. I never thought I would. When October 1st hit on the calendar this year, I reminded myself of that — of that thought. If we go back to the end of January, early part of February when I was first told of my diagnosis and the reaction…
The doctor said, “If you don’t do anything, we’re looking here at a couple of months. If you look at treatment, if it works, we’re looking at…” And then they wouldn’t give me a time. They still won’t. They won’t do that.

There was no way. I didn’t share that with anybody. So given that as a starting point, given that as a baseline, I’m kicking butt — and the future remains pretty good-looking, given all of that. This is why I say that I always try to keep everything in perspective on a day-to-day basis and to realize that you just don’t know. Nobody does, and you have to give every day…
You know, I’ve loved to point out we all only get one life. We don’t get a do-over in the… Well, we do. Actually, we get a do-over every day if we choose to look at it that way.

But the fact that I have that option and that opportunity compared to where I thought I would be at this time? I mean, that’s “go get the hallelujah chorus and have ’em start singing to me,” because that’s exactly where this is — and the future? Far more optimistic than pessimistic, attitudinally, to me, because of the support systems I have, the people that are helping me, family. Ooh! Anyway, that’s it.

clashdaily--2020-10-20--SMOKING GUN: Was Evidence That Dems KNEW About Hunter’s Sketchy Money Hiding In Plain Sight?

Dems want us to believe the latest scandal swirling about all the data on Hunter’s laptop is a Kremlin special. But the evidence of how complicit the Dems were in covering this up was staring us right in the face.
We didn’t have quite enough data points to connect all the dots, but there was enough to make our antenna go up.
Let’s quickly recap what they are trying to cover up before looking at the evidence that Democrat flunkies were working overtime to keep this scandal under wraps for a long time now.
Hunter Biden is accused of a Pay for Play racket in:
-Ukraine (peddling influence using White House favors to protect Burisma)
-China (On Air Force Two with dad and coming back with Billion dollar deals)
-Russia (Millions of dollars from Oligarch – and Putin – connected players in Moscow, claim of money laundering by his partner Devon Archer)
-Kazakhstan (buddy-buddy with a dictator’s sketchy son-in-law) You Can Add Kazakhstan To Hunter Biden’s List Of Sketchy Oligarch Buddies
Emails on the laptop indicate that Hunter has been giving half his income to his father (‘pop’), and suggest that he was a cutout holding a cut of the earnings on Joe Biden’s behalf.
Some of his business partners have been criminally charged, and others cut him loose indicating they want no part of what was going on here.
There is a lot of money sloshing around they might want to keep out of the watchful eye of any forensic auditors.
If the son of the connected Vice President was reportedly getting payoffs, it might be worth asking if the relatives of any other political players (like Kerry, or Pelosi) who had relatives working in Ukraine’s energy sector had any similar arrangements.
If the scandals lurking here are anything like what they appear to be on their face, there is a LOT of motivation to keep them from coming to the attention of the public. Especially if it turns out that any OTHER sketchy politicians are taking part in the payoffs.
I mean really, what are the odds of the Veep AND the House Chair having children employed in the Ukraine energy sector, what with Ukraine’s history of corruption?
How could we possibly have known any of this?
Because we reported on the cover-up and didn’t fully realize the implications.
Remember when Hunter knocked up a stripper and then tried to blow off responsibility for his kid? That led to a court case, but it wasn’t your ordinary child support battle.
This one was newsworthy not just because of the players involved, but how he fought like hell to NOT have his financials revealed.
Let’s look down memory lane to a story that reared its head during impeachment:
Hunter threw up every roadblock — he even played the COVID card — he could to try to escape submitting his tax documents while crying poor the whole time.
Either he had no money, or he claimed to have no money and fought like hell in every way to keep his tax documents hidden.
But somehow, once he had exhausted the judge’s patience and was compelled to settle or open his books to forensic examination.
So Hunter Biden was faced with a choice between showing up for court and having his own life and finances go under the microscope just in time for his father to take a lead in the Dem Primaries… OR… settling this case quietly. —ClashDaily
When the clock ran out, suddenly, almost like magic, Hunter was able to come up with enough money to make this case just ‘go away’.
We thought this was mostly about how public embarrassment might hurt his father’s presidential run, and that some bundler put up the money to make his baby momma go away quietly.
But what if it was much more than that?
What if this whole coverup had nothing to do with keeping the baby mama out of the public spotlight, and was REALLY about concealing evidence of the political pay-for-play that makes his dad look like an actual Manchurian candidate?
It sure would go a long way to explaining not just the unwillingness of Hunter to open up his books while he cried ‘poor’, but how he managed to suddenly come up with the money to make the problem go away so quickly.
Either he had the money all along and didn’t want to admit it (which might raise uncomfortable questions about where it came from)…
OR
Someone who knew what Hunter’s documents were hiding stepped in and bailed him out by quietly making the problem go away.
