RUSH: The country was just sold down the river again by your very Republican Party.

I have a headline here from the Washington Times: "White House Declares Total Victory Over GOP in Budget Battle." That headline's a misnomer. There was never a battle. None of this was opposed. The Republican Party didn't stand up to any of it, and the die has been cast for a long time on this. I know many of you are dispirited, depressed, angry, combination of all of that. But, folks, there was no other way this could go. Because two years ago when the Republican Party declared they would never do anything that would shut down the government and they would not impeach Obama, there were no obstacles in Obama's way and there were no obstacles in the way of the Democrat Party.

When you surrender the power of the purse -- and that's the primary power the House of Representatives has. Not a penny of money can be spent in this country by this government without the House of Representatives authorizing it. Obama can spend all he wants, but if the House doesn't give him the mechanism, he can't spend any of it. But the Republicans squandered that. They gave up the power of the purse. The reason they did that is because for some inexplicable reason, they are literally paranoid and scared to death of even being accused of doing something that would shut down the government.

So to avoid even the accusation that they were going to or would ever even think of shutting down the government, they signaled that whatever Obama wanted to spend, he would get, because they figured that had less damage to them politically than the allegation that they were shutting down the government. So, very simply, ever since the Republican Party became the party of keeping the government open at all costs, we get bills like this. There's simply no stopping the Democrats. There's no mechanism. Every constitutional mechanism found in the power of the purse, Separation of Powers, the Republican Party years ago gave it away, in total fear of the media.

Now, there's also a factor that needs to be mentioned, too, and that is that many Republican donors want every bit of this money spent, and they have donated voluminously to key Republicans in order to get the money spent. So it's not all Republican fears. It's not all Republican caving. A lot of it is Republican fealty and loyalty to some of their donors. Some people today looking at this, and this is 2,009 pages. It's said to be a spending bill. Among the things that it does, it fully funds Obamacare.

It fully funds Planned Parenthood. That, to me, is unforgivable, with everything now known about what goes on behind closed doors at Planned Parenthood, and that the federal government, led by a Republican Party, sees fit to pay for it. It is beyond comprehension, and it is a total squandering of moral authority to fully fund the butchery at Planned Parenthood. This spending bill fully pays for Obama's refugee plans, fully. This spending bill, this budget bill quadruples the number of visas Obama wants for foreign workers. This is even a slap at American union workers. Not the leaders. The union leaders seem to be in favor of it, but blue-collar people, known as working people, have been sold down the river along with everybody else here.

This spending bill even fully pays for every dime asked for by Obama on all of this idiocy that's tied up into climate change. Everything Obama wanted, everything he asked for, he got. You go down the list of things, it's there.

And this is causing some people to wonder if they just dreamed all that stuff about Boehner resigning. And then other people are wondering if they even dreamed all that stuff about the Republicans winning the largest number of seats they've had in Congress since the Civil War. We had two midterm elections in 2010 and 2014, which were landslide victories for the Republican Party. The Democrat Party lost over a thousand seats nationwide in just those two elections. People went to the polls in droves wanting exactly what was rubber-stamped last night (or what will be) stopped.

And instead they showed up in record numbers and they it turned out and they just defeated Democrats down the ballot. In the process, they elected Republicans to stop this. And now the Republicans have the largest number of seats in the House they've had in Congress since the Civil War. And it hasn't made any difference at all. It is as though Nancy Pelosi is still running the House and Harry Reid is still running the Senate. "Betrayed" is not even the word here. What has happened here is worse than betrayal. Betrayal is pretty bad, but it's worse than that.

This was out-and-out, in-our-face lying, from the campaigns to individual statements made about the philosophical approach Republicans had to all this spending. There is no Republican Party! You know, we don't even need a Republican Party if they're gonna do this. You know, just elect Democrats, disband the Republican Party, and let the Democrats run it, because that's what's happening anyway. And these same Republican leaders doing this can't, for the life of them, figure out why Donald Trump has all the support that he has? They really can't figure this out?

Repeated stabs in the back like this -- which have been going on for years -- combined with Obama's policy destruction of this country, is what has given rise to Donald Trump. If Donald Trump didn't exist and if the Republican Party actually does want to win someday, they'd have to invent him. It's just mind-boggling when you figure out everything that has been granted Obama. All the money, the tax increases, the Cadillac plans in Obamacare. All kinds of punitive things in Obamacare, delayed yet again so that people will not be made aware of the pain and suffering Obamacare's gonna cause.

This budget even gives Obamacare cover by delaying some of the most harsh aspects of it. And the reason for that is, delay the harsh aspects and you prevent people from learning what they are, at the same time you get more years for the tentacles of Obamacare to deeply weave themselves into the fabric of society, making repeal of the thing more politically difficult. So you could also say that the Republican budget bill actually improves the odds of Obamacare surviving and growing. You have to look long and hard for this whole thing to find any opposition to anything the Democrat Party wants.

Jeff Sessions, senator from Alabama, is calling this a betrayal, fully funding the Obama immigration agenda, the climate change agenda, increasing foreign workers. He said, "This is why Trump is now triumphing here and probably will win. The voters have come to believe that their own party's elites are not only uninterested in defending their interests, but -- as with this legislation and fast tracking the president's international trade deal -- Republican voters would not be wrong to conclude that their own Republican leaders are hostile to them, just as Democrat leaders are hostile to Republican voters."

And as Sessions points out, "This legislation represents a further disenfranchisement of the American voter." Clearly! In the last two midterm elections, the American electorate has stood up and loudly stated, 'No. We don't want this. Stop this." It didn't matter. It's so bad that over at Slate.com they're making excuses for Paul Ryan. I think in some places in the left-wing media, they can't believe the scope of the betrayal. They're feeling a little guilty at how easy this has been. They're feeling a little guilty here. I'm joking, of course. But one of the Salon.com columnists said, "Hey, you know, you guys need to cut Ryan some slack. He was left with a huge mess and not much time to fix it."

Isn't that what they always said with Boehner? "He was left with a huge mess"? Isn't that what they always say about Obama? "He was left with a huge mess. Man, it was much worse than he even knew. Nobody told him the truth." It seems to be a constant refrain and excuse. "According to Sessions, the American people elected Republicans to the majority in Congress in 2014 as a rejection of the Obama administration's immigration policies," and any number of other things. "'That loyalty has been repaid with betrayal,' he said. ... Sessions added, 'As feared, the effect is to fund the president’s entire immigration agenda.'"

"Planned Parenthood Unscathed in Spending Bill," from a very happy and cheering TheHill.com. "Planned Parenthood is praising Democrats in Congress after the spending bill released early Wednesday morning spared the organization from cuts. As expected, the spending bill does not defund Planned Parenthood, a clear deal-breaker for Democrats, but the absence of spending cuts is still noteworthy given the intensity of the push to defund the group..." There was never any intensity to... It's what we now know.

There wasn't any intensity to defund. All there was is just a bunch of words, just a bunch of people standing up saying they were going to. This wouldn't stand. They were gonna lead an effort to defund it. But nobody ever meant it. "Planned Parenthood Vice President Dana Singiser praised congressional Democrats on Wednesday for 'holding the line against these harmful policy riders and cuts to key women's health programs.'" Also from TheHill.com, another reporter cheering as well. "Funds for Obama Climate Deal Survive."

They were never threatened, never in peril. There wasn't a battle. "Secret Deal Quadruples Foreign Workers -- Chamber of Commerce Backs Guest Worker Program." Translation: More cheap labor will eagerly be brought into the country under a visa program or they will be employed. "Hey, why not, Rush? The unemployment's rate's 5%. We got plenty of room for foreign workers." Right. That, to me... All this Republican campaign stuff going on obfuscating or clouding this a little bit, but that really is the news of the last 12 to 18 hours.

BREAK TRANSCRIPT

RUSH :Sanctuary cities, fully funded. All Mideast immigration programs, fully funded. All these things that have been exploited by terrorists.

Sanctuary cities, fully funded. All refugees, fully funded. The release of criminal aliens, fully funded.

Everything!

The Democrat leftist wet dream has just been paid for. (6 images)

The GOP signed a peace treaty in the war on the US Constitution and the nation against our enemies, the Progressives. Nothing else needs to be said. It is no different than if FDR sued Japan for peace on December 8th 1941, wishing not to be endangered or thought badly of. The members of both parties are mainly anti-American traitors.

No, the Republicans are much, MUCH viler.

Here is why.

Think back to the American Revolution.

There were three kinds of Americans: Rebels, who wanted Independence bad enough to fight for it. Neutrals, who didn't approve of either side. And Tories, who thought the Rebels were traitors and who were willing to fight to the death for King and Country, just as the Rebels were ready to fight for Independence and a Republic. There were brave Rebels and there were also brave Tories. Rebels and Tories really hated each other, but they stood where they stood on principle.

When the war was over, huge numbers of Tories moved to Canada as the "United Empire Loyalists" who founded English Canada alongside the French already there.

Ok, so, if we were to compare us to them, the conversatives are the Rebels of old, trying to change a system that they see as having been corrupt. The Democrats are Tories. The government has been socialistic since King Frankilin (Roosevelt), and the Democrat Tories are loyal to, believe in, and fight for the government in which they believe - the government that has been the norm in America since 1932 - a decade and a half short of a century, two generations.

But the Republican Party, who are they? They are Benedict Arnold. Arnold was appointed to a position of great responsibility and respect by the Rebels, because he was one of them. But he betrayed them and tried to hand a key fort over to the British. Was it because he had a sincere change of heart and decided that he was, after all, a Tory? Not hardly. He did it for MONEY. He married a socialite, Peggy Shippen, and the cost of the lifestyle broke him. The British paid more, so he was bought out.

That is WHY the Republican Party in Congress is the Benedict Arnold Party. They are almost all bought out by crony capitalist interests. They take millions in donations, serve the crony capitalist interests, graduate from Congress into multi-million dollar jobs. That's the career path. They claim to be conservatives to get the votes, just as Arnold acted the part of a Rebel to get his command of West Point. But once in power, Arnold tried to hand over West Point to the British. The Republicans have ALREADY handed over Congress to the Democrats. They've been doing it continuously for years.

But they sure hate Trump.

Benedict Arnold cannot be rehabilitated. Neither can the Republican Party. Everybody who realizes the extent of the betrayal and the HOPELESSNESS of reform from corrupt servants of crony capitalists must WALK OUT of the Republican Party. Leave it. Cease to support it. If Trump is the nominee, or perhaps Cruz, vote for the man. But kill the party. It has betrayed you utterly, for money, and it will never, ever represent you again.

The Tories are winning all of the battles, and will win the country unless a new party stands up. There is no other way.

You can stay under the leadership of Benedict Arnold and be handed over bound to your foes, or you can become Independent. You may not win this round as an Independent, but the Benedict Arnold party will start to lose, and lose and lose and lose.

And no, the Republicans are NOT "better" than the Democrats. If the Democrats get everything they want, the country may end up broke, but on the way you'll have health care, pensions and free college. But if the Republicans keep "winning" you'll have those things anyway, and the country will still be bankrupt, but you won't have a job, because they will have outsourced it China at the behest of the cronies who pay them.

If you don't hate Benedict Arnold more than you hate the Tories, you are not thinking.

If you don't see that the Republican Party is the Benedict Arnold party, even after THIS betrayal, then you are blind and dumb.

Yes.

And you no doubt realize that if the President vetoes the budget, and there is no budget, the government shuts down.

The President cannot spend the money without Congress.

Which means that the Republicans AFFIRMATIVELY AGREED TO the horrendous spending, all of it. They did not have to. They could have vetoed it also - torpedoed it - by refusing to spend the money.

Then, if Obama vetoed, the Republicans could let the government shut down and STAY shut down until the election.

Obama would have vetoed and let it happen.

The Republicans chose to cave and give the President everything. THEY passed it. It's on THEIR heads.

WHY? Because it is loaded with pork for their crony capitalist interests. They sold out America to pay off their donors.

The Republicans are far worse here. Obama SUGGESTED, but the Republicans PASSED IT ALL. THEY had the power to stop it, but they made it happen.

Republicans are Benedict Arnolds.

No, I don't. I think the blame falls squarely on Republicans.

The Republicans HAVE power, but they are corrupt, bought men. They lie to middle class conservatives, but their TRUE alignment is with the cash gravy train from big government contractors, agribusiness, banking interests, arms makers, oil interests, and all of the panoply of millionaires and billionaires who, in the aggregate, are the primary end recipients of the money that government spends. It may step through some intermediate hands, but it ends up theirs, largely untaxed at the endpoint.

THOSE people have a feral interest in the government never shutting, the gravy train never ending. And Republican politicians are as corrupt as drug traffickers or mafiosi. Their JOB is to keep the money flowing to those interests, and they are given millions of dollars in campaign funds, and millions more in personal wealth, gifts, perks, future jobs, in order to keep it going. Part of that job requires getting elected so they lie - my God how they lie - to people like you and me. They do it over and over, and they throw up smokescreens to try to get us to blindly hate the Democrats.

Truth is, the Democrats kill babies. They're pretty evil. But they are not Benedict Arnolds like the Republicans. The Republicans LIE TO OUR FACES. The Democrats tell the truth: they want what they say they want, and they do what they say. Democrats are the girl who sleeps around and tells you so. Republicans marry you, then cheat and steal from you. Far worse.

To blame the Independents, or Democrats, is wrong. The lowest filth in America is the Congressional Republican. He is an utterly corrupt sleazeball. A Benedict Arnold. That's why Republican shitbags in Congress hate Cruz, practically to a man, and they hate Trump. He's not one of them and he'll break the gravy train.

They fear Trump most of all, because he can lead.
