⚡️ Rush Limbaugh, the right-wing radio host and Presidential Medal of Freedom recipient from Trump, is dead at 70
nydailynews.com/news/national/…
Limbaugh died from lung cancer.

He was nation's 2nd-highest paid radio personality, Forbes said, net worth at $600M.

Famous sayings:
“Femi-nazi” for women’s rights advocates
"Joe and the Hoe" for Biden and Harris

Impassioned, not necessarily accurate.

EDITORIAL | Rush & us: After Limbaugh, America struggles with how to unite, if even possible

Dead at 70 is the talented, tenacious, influential voice

But we cannot turn away from what he brought: the political climate he more than anyone helped usher in.

FRANKEN | Rush Limbaugh’s real legacy: He planted the seed from which Fox, and Trump, grew

When I say talent, I mean it. But also racist, sexist, homophobic.

He was a shill for the right wing of the GOP. He promoted conspiracy theories. @alfranken writes

Three men were shot during a street fight in the Bronx. One of the victims died.

nydailynews.com/new-york/nyc-c…
A Bronx drug dealer settled his beef with a local deli by executing a store worker and blasting its owner.

The shooter took a bullet to the head from his own gun during an ensuing brawl, police said.

nydailynews.com/new-york/nyc-c…
The vengeful gunman, Tykwan McLeod, 45, made a beeline toward deli worker Donte Thomas, 33, and shot him dead.

When the Bronx owner heard gunshots, he charged back in — and was shot in the chest before attacking the shooter who was then shot in the head.
