"He had the whole thing as a conspiracy between the Dem party, the prosecutor in Texas, and the liberal media"

Did a little investigating and there is some truth to it. In the sense that one of the 4, Sears, is contributing some money to a body at UT Austin. The other three agreed to publicly state that corporate political contributions "constitute a genuine threat to democracy." In this light, it looks more like Ronnie was trying to get them to make some public gesture that what they did was wrong. Sort of the corporate equivalent of doing one of those commercials when some DUI arrestee talks about how bad DUI can be.

So this has a bit more of connection to reality than much of Rush's stuff.
