Nov 27, 2019
 

Good morning from Washington, which first saw zealous lawmakers try to impeach a president 176 years ago. Fred Lucas tells the story. Bestselling author David Limbaugh joins the podcast to talk about the craziness of the left. Plus: liberals who limit black Americans, clarity on health care prices, and a problematic Thanksgiving. On this date in 1911, White House housekeeper Elizabeth Jaffray records in her diary that she spoke with President William Howard Taft and the first lady about his growing waistline. Bring on the turkey.

Referring to Chick-fil-A's recent decision to no longer support charities criticized by the LGBT movement, Limbaugh says: "I would call people to do the opposite of what Chick-fil-A has now done and stand up against this leftist, PC, totalitarian, tyrannical bullying, and fight for what we believe in."
