RUSH LIMBAUGH (HOST): In the midst of that we get this story, some intelligence person overheard the president say something that he didn't think was proper, and so he called somebody and he reported the inspector general, the intelligence -- he reported that the president said something. It's not against the law for the [president]. The president can say what he wants to anybody.
...
LIMBAUGH: The real question here is what the hell is the intelligence community doing -- continuing to do to try to get rid of Donald Trump? This coup actually is ongoing, it hasn't stopped.
...
LIMBAUGH: The intelligence community doesn't have oversight over the president. The president can tell anybody anything he wants, for crying out loud. But now we got speech police in the intelligence -- and filing reports with the inspector general. And of course this is going to make people like Pelosi and Nadler want to have this whistleblower come up and testify. And there's nothing of high crimes and misdemeanors nature, there's nothing criminal, there's nothing untoward here at all, and it may not even be true.
