The focus remains on the 14-day window provided by the temporary restraining order.

He subsequently received a technical survey from the Associated Press asking him to rate the health of the Gulf of Mexico on a numerical scale. The hosts argue this proves that "scientific consensus" figures are often based on surveys of unqualified individuals.

Limbaugh played old campaign advertisements to contrast Biden's past claims about presidential experience with his current role on the Obama ticket. Biden's history of making up degrees led to his public discredit during that election cycle.
