I am 💀 😂 🤣

Rush may be gone, but now it’s up to all of us to continue his commitment to our great nation. Thank you sir, for the time you took with a arrogant & smug LA leftist feminist, one of the millions of lives you changed for the better. 14/14

The good news is, Rush not only changed our lives by helping us understand the imperative of freedom & generosity, but he now serves as an even more essential example for all of us 13/

The ugliness of the left will be seen throughout today & the days to come in response to the death of Rush, an American titan & defender of conservative values. The left is ugly & horrible but it is exactly their nature & should serve to remind you the importance of our fight 12/

Rush created the potential of the medium, and set the tone for entertainment, analysis & education. Honest conversations open to everyone is anathema to the left which is why they’re obsessed w creating fear & the cancel culture 11/

My leftist associates begged me not to go into talk radio. I eventually realized they were so opposed because of what I would learn. That leftist effort to deny access to ideas & info continues w even more vitriol & punishment for those who dare to challenge leftist lies 10/

It wasn’t just Rush, but I’d also been lied to about conservatives in general, realizing that by speaking with callers every day who were conservative & responding fairly & w curiosity to my arguments on the air. Rush made that medium, & experience, possible 9/

During this time as an activist leftist, it was talk radio, the audience, & meeting Rush Limbaugh that was the undeniable trigger making it possible for me to rethink my alliances & eventually leave the leftist establishment 8/

The impact of realizing that I’d been lied to about Rush was significant, but that as a conservative he represented more of what I felt was valuable & important was a revelation. He made it possible to even consider that which is what made him so dangerous to the left 7/

He approached me and everyone else as separate individual worthy of respect and with a desire to help and inspire. Regardless of the fact that I stood for everything he stood against. It was a generosity of spirit you would never see on the left 6/

In my conversations with him, we talked about the issues and despite the disagreements, he also took time to give me advice about hosting, style, connecting w the audience, etc. He encouraged me and gave me advice that made a huge difference in my career… 5/

Rush was not a monster, he wasn’t evil, he did not mean people harm, he wasn’t a bigot, or any of the other smears lobbed against him by my leftist associates. I liked him very much, and while we disagreed on many things (then) he was nothing has he had been painted 4/

There were many events during this time as a radio talk show host that changed me. It was my first job in the medium starting in 1993. My meeting Rush & our conversations made me realize the left had been lying to me about many things... 3/

He was gregarious & generous when we met. He shook my hand & I was shocked that he was nice & genuinely curious about my radio work and activism. I realized I was going to have a fascinating conversation 2/

In the 90s I was a host on a talk radio station in LA, the same that aired Rush. I was president of LA NOW, & the liberal wkend host when he visited the station. He was so vilified by my then-crowd, I expected a monster. Instead, I met a remarkable, kind and encouraging man... 1/

“In some ways, Cuba is the perfect example of what Piker, Omar and Mamdani seek to make America into. We can all be happy poor people without electricity enjoying the "island life," while, obviously, they get millions of dollars for having come up with the idea.”

@maziehirono I agree with you, but I also suspect that this tweet didn't turn out for you like you expected. I will be surprised if this tweet is still on your timeline 24 hours from now. The idea that a truckload of conservatives agrees with you I suspect makes you uncomfortable.

Donald Trump is not, never will be, and has never been a king. #NoKings

Correct. Not sure why you’re defending him this way but correct.

She’s not criticizing capitalism. She’s describing systems shaped by political power and calling it capitalism. Healthcare isn’t a free market when prices are hidden, competition is restricted, and the state dictates incentives. War isn’t a market at all. It’s funded by taxation and decided by politicians. Calling that capitalism is just word abuse. “Poisoned food” survives where liability is blurred and regulators are captured, not where firms are directly accountable to customers. Data “exploitation” is mostly people trading information for services they voluntarily use, then pretending they were ambushed. What ties all her examples together isn’t profit. It’s proximity to power. Profit from serving customers forces you to improve or disappear. Profit from serving the state lets you fail upward and get paid anyway. So no, this isn’t an indictment of capitalism. It’s a list of what happens when politics replaces it and then gets mislabeled to avoid blame.

I'm going to keep cracking jokes about race. The left has tried to intimidate people about this subject, I really don't care. We need more laughs and less political correctness on X. Wouldn’t you agree?
