Conservative radio icon Rush Limbaugh has passed away at 70 after a battle with cancer.

According to Fox News:

Rush Limbaugh, the monumentally influential media icon who transformed talk radio and politics in his decades behind the microphone, helping shape the modern-day Republican Party, died Wednesday at the age of 70 after a battle with lung cancer, his family announced.

Limbaugh’s wife, Kathryn, made the announcement on his radio show.

The radio icon learned he had Stage IV lung cancer in January 2020 and was awarded the Presidential Medal of Freedom by President Trump at the State of the Union address days later. First lady Melania Trump then presented America’s highest civilian honor to Limbaugh in an emotional moment on the heels of his devastating cancer diagnosis.

“Rush Limbaugh: Thank you for your decades of tireless devotion to our country,” President Trump said during the address.

Limbaugh thanked his supporters in his final broadcast of 2020: “I wasn’t expected to be alive today,” he said. “I wasn’t expected to make it to October, and then to November, and then to December. And yet, here I am, and today, got some problems, but I’m feeling pretty good today.”

Conservative radio host Glenn Beck took to Twitter to express his grief:

Rush Limbaugh was one of the most influential conservative commentators of all time.

President Trump went on Fox News to discuss Limbaugh, his first TV appearance since leaving office.



          1. Yes, Mitch is the world’s biggest loser right now!! On second thought, that would be you, wouldn’t it Hessie?? YOU are the biggest loser!!!

          2. Just tell the truth and facts and hurt his little feelings and him and his husband will run back to globalist media, cliton opinion and feelings network and learn which 1 of the 1,000 different genders they must “imagine” tomorrow .

          3. I imagine that Joe is in the White House as the head of the most powerful nation on earth.
            I imagine that XpresidentRump is in Mary Legoland pulling his pud.

          4. Only a scummy liberal would make comments like that. There truly isn’t anything that’s too low for a liberal.

          5. Have you seen the references to Obama’s children on here?
            Their beautiful hair and skin tone.
            Now everyone wants nappy and milk chocolate.

          6. libby snow flake al is still scared that Trump was going to stop him and his libby snow flakes from collecting welfare all their life .

          1. We all need to get this parasite taken off this forum I’ve had enough of his stupid leftist remarks.

          2. If this goof made the same comments about ANY liberal leftist over on AOL, rest assured his/her comments would never be posted because that’s how pro-leftist AOL works!!!!
            They censor anything and everything negative about socialists…… BECAUSE THEY ARE SOCIALIST!!!!!!!!!!!

          3. I agree, what does he bring in the form of intelligence or truth? His remarks are nasty and full of hate, he has nothing of importance to say.

          4. Rush was the master of hate.
            He foamed at the mouth at the mear mention of that Black Thug who was born in that Fecalhole in Africa.

          5. Speaking of Albert Hess….
            I always give birth to an Albert Hess every morning after my 2nd cup of coffee. No hospital, no birthing room, no nursery for the newborn little Albert… just a commode to receive him.
            A little clean up and a good flush and I send my little Albert on his way.

          6. We can count on Trump to be a loser.
            He lost the most fantastic casino in the world yesterday.
            Just one of the many Trump properties to be imploded.
            Trump is a real destructive force.

          1. Little Albert just loves attention, he’s an insecure person, who can never be happy. He loves it when we show emotion. Don’t ever be like him and sink to his level.

          2. Like Trump I love attention, I am in secure, I can never be happy, I love it when you show emotion (think Trump rallies).
            Unlike Trump I am not alone at Mary Legoland pulling my pud.

          1. Please please get me off.
            As only you know how.
            Please keep the dentures, don’t let them talk you into implants.
            It takes too long to get all those screws out.
            They are so small.

        1. I guess you didn’t like the truth. Rush was and will always be a great man. He was honest and forth coming. May you Rest In Peace Rush. God bless you and your family

          1. I believe in the stock market
            Trump made the stock market the greatest it has ever been.
            Trump made me lots of money.
            Did you get lots of money too?
            I would give mine back if I could erase Trump

          1. Does Trump believe God?
            The Jew God?
            The Christ God?
            The Mohammed God?
            The Baptist God?
            The Holy Roller God?
            The hold them under until they almost drown God?
            And the oh no the Morman God.
            There are so many different Gods to pick from.
            Which one is the one true God?

          1. How many times did the Rushbo go into rehab?
            He was caught with scrip for 2,000 feel goods.
            He pled down a drug charge for smuggling from the DR.

        1. globalists and globalist puppet $oro$ and globalist puppet democrat criminal party and globalist puppet rino criminal party and globalist puppet, libby snow flake sheep demand our southern border open so illegal criminal invader voters continue to supply libby snow flake sheep with illegal drugs to keep them addicted and stupid and refuse to leave the democrat criminal party plantation .

          1. How many times has Harris been to rehab?
            When was she caught with scrip for 2,000 feel goods?
            I think that Sleepy Old Joe is clearly a better choice than Don the Insurectionist.
            Harris and Pence are a toss up, Pence still has a shred of diginity.
            He was not hanged….

          2. I know very little about Harris.
            I prefer Pence over Harris but not by much.
            I prefer Biden over Trump but not by much.
            I did not vote for Biden, I voted against Trump.

          1. I am all set.
            I followed Trump’s orders.
            I drank a cup of bleach.
            I feel great.
            I look almost White.
            But my lips and my nose are still big.
            No amount of bleach will fix that.
            I will just wear a bag over my head.

    1. god is too busy blessing globalists and globalist puppet $oro$ and globalist puppet, chester the molester biden AND altar boy raping priests .

        1. I helped to save America from Trump.
          Now he is Florida’s problem.
          Have you ever noticed how Florida is shaped like a limp dick, with no balls.
          A perfect venue for flacid XpresidentRump.

        1. Worry about you and your husband and the children you need to adopt like globalist puppet, barry soetoro and his husband big MIKE ..

  1. So very sad and I HATE it that Rush Limbaugh has passed away. He can never be replaced in this life. God bless his family. He’s in Heaven now.

      1. globalists and globalist puppet $oro$ and globalist puppet democrat criminal party and globalist puppet rino criminal party and globalist media teach libB snow flakes to hate everything good .

      2. Only to people of the left. The left hates truth. Rush was truth. The left hated him for that and he exposed the left as to who they really are.

          1. You mean White House Joe??

            Bribe – We would like you to do us a favor.
            The Art of the Deal is Hunter dirt for those thingies that so annoy Russian tank crews.

          2. Joe the one and only POTUS.
            The guy with the football.
            He has this really cool private jet.
            He picked it up on the cheap, used,
            The inside smelled so bad that he is having a new one built
            Trump really wanted to be the first to fly on the new AF1.
            Maybe Biden will let his body be flown to DC to be put on display in the Capitol Rotunda.
            If they can finally get rid of the smeared fecal matter smells.
            Trump is a very sensitive guy, that smell would raise him from the dead.

          3. You like the big Black one’s too?
            Is it the taste or the smell that gets you off?
            Or the White Creme hanging down from your tonsils.
            Reason enough to have your tonsils removed.

          1. I have an entrepreneurial career tap tap tapping on my little keyboard. My boyfriend and benefactor, the venerable Mr Soreass pays me US$.05 per post!

  2. This man taught us so much over the airwaves. He is irreplaceable and his undying love of America was proven day after say through his words, actions and lessons to us all that taught us to think and research for our own powerful knowledge.

  3. Lord called him home knowing what will happen from this point on
    many will be called home from now on forward
    these will be very enduring and trying times as we are fighting a spiritual battle, not only the physical battle
    God bless Rush Limbaugh, may he find peace with Him

      1. Yes, all those junkies in washington dc and seattle and portland and philadelphia and baltimore and ny city and chicago and ca .

      1. god is too busy blessing globalists and globalist puppet $oro$ and globalist puppet democrat criminal party and globalist puppet rino criminal party and globalist media AND altar boy raping priests .

  4. I have never cried for someone in this kind of field like i have this man. He has been on our families radio since he started. Our family lost my little brother in September of 2020 that has literally set me back so much. Losing Rush is another sadness for me. God bless you Rush. Take care of my brother and I’m sure he is waiting there for you with open arms. He loved listening to you and he believed in you so much. Take care of each other.

    1. I appreciate your beautiful and very sincere sentiment, Julie. And I pray peace and comfort for you and your family for the loss of your brother. I know how it hurts. 🙁

  5. Rush will be so sorely missed! I had just started to listen to his radio show about the time he found out he had cancer. I, and so many of us, will miss him greatly. No one matches his wisdom and patriotism. Rest in Peace, Rush! +JMJ+

  6. No replacement is possible for this great patriot! But I’m sure someone will attempt to carry on his legacy. Let’s see what all the haters have to say–no doubt showing themselves to be a**** as usual!

  7. I have loved Rush from the moment I heard him years and years ago. I am so happy that he is a born again believe in the Lord Jesus Christ. And at the moment of death in this life he is now, in the presence of God. That is God’s promise to all who believe. Love to Rush and his family!!!

  8. This man LOVED his country ! He will be miss so much! My husband passed 10 years ago he always wanted to meet this GREAT MAN now he can and will!
    You will be missed so much you were loved so much!
    Prayed to his family 🙏

  9. An honest, stable, common sense voice for Conservatives as well as the WORLD…! We need more people who will make the same commitment to stand up for reason, logic, common sense…TRUTH…!! R.I.P.

  10. All this fraud and division did not help Rush. But it is not helping the rest of us either. Sick of this BS and not blaming Trump or the 75 million who follow him as conservatives. The vicious, petty, lying, cheating, stealing dim wits, their NWO masters, and their minions of morons including the fake media are to blame for this division and hate.

  11. The news took my breath away even though we knew the outcome. Men, such as this, their intellect are hard to replace. God be with him. Sad day for this family and for his.

  12. Rest in Peace Rush, your voice and broadcasts will live on but you will be greatly missed. See you on the flip side! Our prayers and condolences to your family! We were so blessed with your presence!

  13. I am sadden that you are no longer with us but my sadness is tempered by God’s promise, John 3:16, that as Christians we will meet again in paradise with Jesus and dwell on the new earth. God bless you Rush as we will miss you dearly and we pray the Lord will see fit to send us Rush 2.0 as your replacement behind the golden EIB microphone. Farewell my friend.

  14. Over the years of listening to Rush, we all knew this day would come. We just didn’t know when and how too soon.
    Rest-In-Peace, Rush – you will be sorely missed!

  15. Rush, you are replaceable. Thanks for everything you did for this country. We will never forget you. May you rest in peace.

  16. Your noon time broadcast will now be a void in my life forever. I’ve been a listener and follower since 1988. Thank you for all that you done us and the country.
    RIP Rush.

  17. I am so sad for his family and will always be grateful for Rush’s major impact/influence on my political and moral thinkind. God Bless you and thankyou God for giving him to us for the times we have been through. Terry

  18. Millions now have three empty hours every weekday. We’re all in mourning now and won’t get over it for a long time. He was the remote mentor most of us leaned on to lift our days out of democrat doldrums. For me, nobody qualifies as a substitute but his memory will serve as a conservative cornerstone that strengthens my personal resolve to preserve the republic.

  19. One of the first great Radio Talk Show hosts in the nation. All the others followed and were mentored by him . Rest in peace Rush Limbaugh. Requiem Aeternam.

    1. I cannot believe this. Rush was my savior – he literally, singlehandedly changed me from Democrat to Republican. I listened every day and his words changed my life. Rest in Peace, my friend and teacher. I miss you already.

  20. I was worried when he had not returned as he usually did after treatments. So sad can’t be replaced, followed but never replaced rest and n peace and thank you for leading the fight for so long. It will take time to get past this.

  21. I DIDN’T KNOW YOU TO WELL RUSH. DIDN’T LISTEN TO YOU OFTEN BUT I KNEW WHAT YOU STOOD FOR RUSH. I HAVE TEARS IN MY EYES RIGHT NOW. RIP AND SAY HI TO JESUS.LOVE YOU RUSH.

  22. Even though I knew this day was coming, I am so heartbroken. I have been listening to Rush since 1992, a piece of me has died as well.

  23. “The angels greeted the newcomer with open arms; Heaven, we know, just became a little bit nicer.” Rush made a difference in so many lives, and I pray peace and comfort for his family and all who knew and loved.

  24. HE HAS BEEN SPARED THE AGONY OF HAVING TO WATCH THIS ONCE GREAT COUNTRY BEING TORN TO PIECES DUE TO ITS STUPIDITY.
    A ONCE GREAT NATION NOW RULED BY THE COMMUNIST PAPACY AND PRESIDENCY.

    THANK YOU RUSH FOR THE ESOTERIC EXCEPTIONALISM YOU BROUGHT TO THE AIRWAVES.

    SHAME ON US FOR NOT HEEDING YOUR GREAT WORDS !

    MAY GOD HAVE MERCY ON US FOR NOT HEEDING HIS WORD,
    THE WORST IS YET TO COME !

    1. Those God Damned Catholics.
      They think that they own Jesus H. Christ.
      Just because they wrote the God Damned Bible.
      We rewrote it.
      So there

  25. Sad to hear of his passing. Mad at that prick Dorsey for muting Trump. I’d love to hear his comment on Rush’s passing.

    1. I heard a reply of President Trump’s comment about Rush today on Rush’s show – they are rebroadcasting some of Rush’s greatest moments. President Trump was so kind and he is MY President, not the “Puppet of the US” and his camel.

      1. My President lives in the White House.
        He has full time employment.
        He has the nuclear football.
        He is the Commander and Chief of the most powerful military in the world.
        Your President is in charge of the Latino staff at Mary Legoland.

  26. God bless him and his family! Rush was a great man and really an American Patriot!. A great loss to all his listeners! He was a first in American Radio Newscast. I spent many hours in my service truck listening to him on the radio during the eighties and nineties and since at home.

  27. Our dearest and beloved Rushbo, yOU will be missed. Be in the Glory of our LORD!

    My deepest condolences to family!!! Receive our LOVE from above. dear friend.

  28. God bless the Limbaugh family, my prayers are with you all. Rush will truly be missed and the radio community will never be the same. RIP, my friend, all the angels in heaven are rejoicing 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻

  29. You are in God’s arms now Rush. Rest In Peace. We love you and will forever be grateful for what you did for this country. We will miss you.

  30. Rush will live in our hearts forever, we should act with the love for this country he had. We have a lot to do to bring this country back to its founding principles. We shall never forget the founders of this country, “a Nation under God”. We can make Rush live if we remember his principles.

    1. Rush supplied the evidence of the voter fraud against Trump that has sent thousands to prison.
      Without the Rushbo and his DittoHeads Trump would not be in the White House today.

  31. Rush used to open his radio show introducing himself and saying he had “talent on loan from God”! He had full realization and he was a inspiration to all of conservatives even through his and our the darkest days!
    Rush was conservative even when conservatism wasn’t “cool”!
    Go with God Rush, I will miss you! May God’s grace be with his family and close friends.
    My heart is broken!

  32. Indeed he will be missed. I hate to hear about people dying because I grew up with them. And at 74 its really catching.

  33. It’s just like I lost a parent. Rush was the best. No one will ever fill his talk radio shoes. Goodbye for now. I miss you already.

  34. A terrible loss. He was one of a very few conservative voices who had guts enough to speak truth to the power of the left.

  35. I’m saddened beyond words!
    May God let His perpetual light shine upon him, and my condolences to his whole family, especially his wife Katherine.

  36. Very sad. I’ve missed Rush the last week and a half and now I hear he’s gone.
    I don’t know what we will do. He was a beacon of conservatism, a guiding light. There was nobody like him.

  37. My office door would close at 11:08 CDT nearly every day so that I could hear Rush’s opening monolog …. a habit I will have to break now that he’s gone. God bless you Rush. You were my rudder thru my political life …. he taught me CONSERVATISM.

  38. He and I are the same age and I began listening to him on WBT 1050 am Charlotte, NC when he first syndicated there, late 80s. I have been a loyal follower and feel I have lost a friend. I spent many hours with him through the radio. You are missed. God’s speed.

  39. My Father died on February 17th in 2012. I was stunned when I heard that Rush had passed away the same day.
    I hope my Dad was there waiting to show Rush all the wonderful things that Heaven has in store for him.
    Because I KNOW that’s where Rush is. He’s with my Dad in Heaven.

  40. Here was a man. A true Patriot with all the virtues of loyalty, trustworthy , reliable, dependable, honesty, compassion,humility. Will be well remembered and sorely missed. May he rest in peace. A true soldier who overcame his disabilities and loved America.

  41. The fools on mainstream media referred to him as a “right wing” radio host. What losers. Limbaugh was the first of the conservative radio talk shows…he will remain iconic for that reason and his uncanny ability to make us laugh while discussing important issues at hand. Truly unique and brilliant in his delivery everyday he was on the radio. He will truly be missed.

  42. Truly loved this country and everything about our Freedoms. He fought hard for all of us to get our message out. Rest in Peace Rush !!!

  43. I was devastated with the news this AM on the loss of the battle Rush has fought valiantly for over a year! I have been there since the beginning in the late 80’s! Even got to shake his hand at his TV show in the 90’s and get a autographed copy of his book!
    No one can replace him ever—-he was one of a kind! Rest In Peace. I know you are in heaven with the Lord now! I love you, El Rushbo!!! Lynne JASEPH

    1. With four wives Rush had so many families.
      Did he even get to meet all eight of his in-laws?
      How many times have they been divorced?

  44. I am tha 10 millionth subscriber … he was a spectacular influence on most of Trum’s 75 million followers …. thanks ole pal.

  45. A decent, irreplaceable GIANT of a man whose influence spanned 2 generations. A part of him still lives on within all of us.

  46. The Maharushi changed millions of lives by opening millions of eyes to the swill of lies in which liberalism wallows. He cannot be replaced. Heartfelt condolences to his family and his extended American patriot family.

        1. please pull your head out of your rectum and flush the brown stuff from between your ears; perhaps you can find a new brain at the local pig slaughter house.

          1. Is the brown stuff that you refer to the very same kind of brown stuff that Trump’s Thugs smeared in the Capitol?
            From the tasting notes it sounds like it is to die for.
            Have you been able to get a finger full to rub under your nose.

  47. Remember how he kept our spirits up on his morning talk show throughout the terrible Clanton years. He was one of a kind. God rest his soul🙏🏻🇺🇸

  48. Rush is absent from his body and present with the Lord! He loved God and accepted Jesus Christ our Savior as his Savior. I am so thankful that I know where he is and I wondered today what great job God has given Rush in Heaven. All of us born again Christians will know when we get there too!

      1. You occasionally show a deftness and cleverness with your posts; you and Rush may have actually had a decent discussion based on facts…just sayin’

        1. Rush was very quick to cut off people he could not best.
          He ran a one man show, not even a side kick.
          He was a drug addled wife swapping piece of feces worthy of being smeared in the Capitol.

  49. Our household is very saddened to hear of the death of Rush!! We listened to him every day and will truly miss his expertise and commentary. Wishing his family all the best wishes. we will miss him very very much. So sad!!!

  50. A “true” conservative ICON, who always “spoke his mind” & had America as his No. #1 priority. His “voice” will truly be missed, especially in this “crazy” world of today.Conservatives have just “lost” a LEGEND for FREE SPEECH & “the right to SAY “what” you “think”! Our condolences to his entire family.

    1. Which one of his four families?
      What about his natural children?
      What about all those children he adopted from mothers who were going to have abortions?
      All those cute little nappy heads that will grow up to be Big Big Black Bucks with BBC’s that little white girls love to taste.?

  51. I don’t “know” who “Mr. Hess” is & could care less. @ this point he is just a vindictive, vile “person” who’s probably “a Dem” trying to “rile” “us” & undoubtedly a Biden, Schumer, Pelosi “shill”. DON”T answer his E-mails. Better to ignore “HIM?”& let him go pound salt. “WE” have “other” problems to deal with. FORGET his posts, =”he’s ” not worth your time or energy.

  52. Millions of us listened to Rush for 30+ years. He was a smart man as well as truthful and wise, he never mislead his audience which is a rarety these days in the media, and a very entertaining and fun person to listen to, He will be sorely missed.

  53. We have been blessed by the years of compassionate intelligent commentary. It is more than just sad to lose him The hateful Twitter comments by the scum of the earth only serve to expand his true worth. They cannot make intelligent comments they just spew hate on anyone who resist their dogmatic claims of their imagined self worth. Twitter doesn’t reprimand them or pull their account

    1. Twitter is a private busisnes.
      They do not have to bake cakes for men and women who have a revolting sexual practices.

  54. I’ve always enjoyed listening to Rush’s insights. He will definitely be missed in the world of conservative radio. God bless him and his family during this difficult time. RIP. You were loved by many.

  55. Meanwhile, altar boy raping god continues to bless globalists and globalist puppet $oro$ and globalist puppet, chester the molester biden and globalist puppet democrat criminal party and globalist puppet rino criminal party and globalist puppet fbi CRIMINAL organisation and globalist media AND altar boy raping priests . . . . .

  56. Love has been expressed over the airwaves for this Legend. God Bless Rush for always being honest, Pro-American, and staying in touch with the Lord. Talent on Loan from God. Thats alot of Talent!

  57. There will be a memorial service for Rush in the Capitol on March 4th.
    Please wear your MAGA hats and have your fecal matter together to smear with your family and friends.
    Make the Capitol smell like Rush.
    Fight like Hell!!
