He's here now. Broadcasting from the underground command post deep in the bowels of a hidden bunker somewhere under the brick and steel of a nondescript building, we've once again made contact with our leader, Mark Levin.

A (35:00)

Hello America. Mark Levin here. Our number, 8773-8138-1187-7381-3811. By the way, for the morons on X I never said I stopped watching football. Talking about I condemned the kneeling. I never stopped watching football. Stupid people. All right, let's get back to reality. Writing in the early 1950s, Robert H. Jackson, Associate justice of the U.S. supreme Court, who also serves as the chief U.S. prosecutor the Nuremberg Trials, was also an attorney general and a damn good one, elucidated succinctly how liberty crushing Sharia was the antithesis of Western law. I have to ask Justice Jackson and so many others who are not Republicans, who are not right wingers or neocons or conservatives who are highly critical of Sharia law. Lexis de Tocqueville I can go on and on, and I maybe I will Are they not to be taken seriously? Or we're supposed to take some clown at the New York Times seriously who doesn't even explain what Sharia law is? Here's what Justice Jackson wrote. Islamic Law Sharia offers the American lawyer a study in dramatic contrasts. Its striking features relative to our law are not likenesses but inconsistencies in its source, its scope, and its sanctions. The law of the Middle east is the antithesis of Western law. Islamic law finds its chief source in the will of Allah as revealed to the Prophet Muhammad. It contemplates one community of the faithful, though they may be of various tribes and in widely separated locations. Religion, not nationalism or geography, is the cohesive force. The state itself is subordinate to the Koran, which leaves little room for additional legislation, none for criticism or dissent. It is not possible to separate political or jurisdiction or juristic theories from the teachings of the Prophet, which establish rules of conduct concerning religious, domestic, social and political life. This results in a law of duties rather than rights. And here we have the New York Times defending it and trashing people who are informed about this, opposing it, seeing what's going on in Europe, seeing what's going on in the Middle east and saying no, no, hell no. Then the author of the piece, Andrew Bostam at JNS, he goes on alarmingly Since 1990 the organization of the Islamic Conference Cooperation, the largest voting bloc in the United nations has been pushing a Sharia based framework for quote unquote human rights, the Cairo Declaration on Human Rights in Islam, which would abrogate existing instruments much more protective of human freedom and dignity, such as the UN's Universal Declaration of Human Rights or the best such instrument, the US Bill of Rights. Hard data from Muslim societies illustrate plausibly the unacceptable non Muslim religious persecution of bigotry that adoption of the Sharia based legal framework and accompanying mores of the Kayo Declaration would engine would engine would engender. Muslim societies that embrace Sharia overall or regarding the enforcement of Islamic blasphemy law have the worst global Christian persecution indices and harbor populations with the highest prevalence by far of extreme anti Semitism. All right, I got to put my new reading glasses on. Did you know I got new reading glasses, Mr. Medusa? I never had reading glasses. I've been using a whatever. Now I will put them on so I can read the latter. Disproportionate extreme anti Semitism exhibited by Muslim is now manifest in Muslim Diaspora diaspora populations of both Western Europe and the United States. You have to be deaf, dumb and blind not to see it and hear it. Concerning data from a nationally representative sample, Muslims surveyed in September 2024 revealed 50% favored Sharia blasphemy law that is making it illegal to show a picture of cartoon of Muhammad. 39% supported broad application of the Sharia. That's four out of ten. And 33% wanted Islam declared as a national religion. That's one out of three for the new York Times. I close with a plaintive 2011 warning from Pakistani Bishop Michael Nazir Ali, who immigrated to the United Kingdom and became the first non white Bishop Dossian bishop in the Church of England. He said this quote at its heart, Sharia has basic inequalities between Muslims and non Muslims and between men and women. The problem with Sharia law being used in tribunals in Britain is that it compromises the tradition of equality for all under the law. It threatens the fundamental values that underpin our society. And yet the New York Times is all for it, literally trashing the great patriots of all faiths, including some Muslims who say no to these Sharia segregated communities that the Islamists are trying to set up outside Dallas, Fort Worth in Houston and Austin in Florida in Pennsylvania, in Michigan, in New Jersey, in New York City. Be brave, be strong. Speak out. Don't be intimidated. The New York Times is no different than the BBC was, no different than the French newspapers and the Swedish newspapers. All the same ideology, weak left wing pablum, no real support for Western society. This is when I talk about the Marxist Islamist fusion. The Marxists. The left lay the foundation for the Islamists. The Islamists will vote for the Democrats in the left or labor or the liberal parties throughout Europe because they know they're weak. They will capitulate, they will acquiesce, if not celebrate them, until it's too late. Until it is too late. There are 50,000 Muslims in Europe at the turn of the century. There are now 50 million the United States at the turn of this century. I dare say there were very, very few. And yet in about 10, 15 years, it'll be the second largest religion in America. If we didn't call it Islam and we called it something else, if we didn't call it a religion and we called it something else, what would the New York Times say then? You know what it'd say. Then it still would endorse it the way it covered up for the Nazis in World War II. It's sick. This is a sick corporation. The New York Times Corporation. It's a corporation. It's a corporation filled with a bunch of lunatics. And this is this is this. Let me pull this back here. Hold on. Now we go back to J. David Goodman at the New York Slimes. Let's see. Just over a year ago, a group of Muslim investors connected to a large mosque complex, the East Plano Islamic center, began raising money for Epic City, which led to a backlash among conservative activists. Protesters became a regular presence outside the mosque. Mohammad Ebidi, a research scientist who immigrated from Egypt, and often when he and his children would go to pray at the Plano center on Fridays, protesters told them they were going to hellfire. Do you want a society where every group alienates each other? He said. Mr. Abbott and Mr. Paxson began investigations. And he goes on, see the poor victims. The Islamists are the poor victims. Let me ask you something, Mr. Goodman. Why don't you go to Dearborn, Michigan and spend a month there and tell us the truth about what's taking place there? Or Patterson, New Jersey. Why don't you do that? Why don't you do that, Mr. Goodman? Until that you remain a fraud and a phony and a fool. And anybody who believes this guy or follows this guy, it is A disaster. The fact of the matter is, the New York Times readership is lower than ever before. And it's a good reason. They have helped pave the way. Pave the way to genocide in two countries, multiple countries in Europe. To genocide in Cuba. To genocide in the Middle east with Hamas slaughtering Israelis. All the news that's fit to print, those pages should be printed in red for all the blood the New York Times has helped cause in this world. I'll be right back. You know what Pure Talk's favorite holiday is? Presidents Day. Because they believe wireless service should only cost you a couple of presidents. Just a Jackson and a Lincoln, to be exact. For $25 a month, Pure Talk gives you unlimited talk text, plenty of data. Now compare that to big wireless.

Now, here's the thing, America. We have what I call this ruling class. I don't call them elites. I call them elitists. And they don't have to just be politicians. They're people in faculty, academia, lawyers, perhaps judges, certainly reporters. And they have these positions where they can or try to influence the public. Our policies, our law. And they're letting us down. Obviously. Not all, but too many, if not most. Our media, for the most part, have let us down. You know, we had these independent platforms we thought would be great. And what did they produce? The Tucker Carlsons and the Steve Bannons. And they're making Kelly's and what else is out. They produce these people who are utterly worthless. And worse, in the case of Katarlson, he's a traitor. Gives aid and comfort to the enemy Islamists and worse. And then we have the New York Times that is literally trashing patriots who are trying to draw attention to what's happening in their communities and states and in the country. We see it with our own Two eyes. We hear it with our own two ears. We see it not just in Europe where it's utterly out of control, but we see it in communities in America in the effort to build more such communities. See, in the 1940s and 50s, the Democrats understood this. FDR understood this. Justice Jackson understood this. In the 1800s, Thomas Jefferson understood this. Alexis de Tocqueville understood this. We all understand it. We all understand it. I do not know what is worse. The Islamists are those who give aid and comfort to the Islamists. What's happening in the country is a matter of strategy. We know because they tell us. The New York Times doesn't write about their scholars, doesn't write about their strategists. It doesn't write about Sharia. It doesn't write about what happens to women and to children. It doesn't write any of that stuff. It doesn't write about what's happening in Europe today. It doesn't write about the virulent anti Semitism that is preached and taught every weekend in so many mosques. Says nothing, not a word. There they are based in New York City. It's all around them. The local government is heavily anti Semitic and anti American. That's where their corporation is based on, not necessarily where the reporters are, by the way. They can go in and send a reporter to Dearborn, Michigan. Tell us what's going on. Patterson, New Jersey. Tell us what's going on. Tell us or go to Europe. What's happened to Manchester? What's happened to London? What's happened to the country of Canada? The whole damn place? It's all around us. Now. The goal is, as I started this program as a parent, to teach your children right from wrong and to pass on to them a society is better than the one was passed on to you. We're not doing that. What exactly are we passing on to our kids 50 years from now? I mean, think about it. Oh, my God, I can't even imagine it. Between the Democrat Party, the Marxists and the Islamists are foreign enemies. So we have to take a stand. We have to take a stand. This isn't about conservatives or right wingers or Islamophobia. Christopher Hitchens pointed it out 20, 25 years ago. He's a leftist and he pointed it out. I besiege you, he says. I besiege you. Pay attention to what's going on. Understand what this ideology is. If we had an honest media that were actually explaining to the American people what was taking place, we'd be in much better shape. But they even platform these Islamists. That fat slob from Turkey, what's his name? Chunk or something or other. But he's not alone. There's many of them. They have a following and they pretend they're victims. And they run around accusing people of racism. Racism. None of them want to go back from where they came. None of them. None of them. We will not be intimidated. We might be de platformed, but we will not have our speech silenced. Not now, not ever. Boy, this SWAT team must be slow. Mr. Producer. They've been on the move for about two hours. You were thinking the same thing. It's the same pictures over and over again. There's the SWAT team just pointing it out. Do yourselves a favor. Read serious information. Don't allow some punk at the New York Times to tell you what to think or your family what to think. Go dig it up yourself. How many democracies are there where there's Islamist governments? Exactly zero. What are women's rights like in Islamist regimes? They're non existent. Women are treated worse than animals. What's due process? I love it when people come here from these places. We want our due process rights. They have no due process rights in Islamist regimes. A determination is made by the hierarchy. If you violated Sharia law and they, you know, execute whatever the law is that they believe it is, the New York Times wouldn't even exist in Islamist societies. Every one of them would be hanged. Every damn one of these buffoons. I'll be right back. You know what Pure Talk's favorite holiday is? Presidents Day. Because they believe wireless service should only cost you a couple of presidents. Just a Jackson and a Lincoln to be exact. For $25 a month, Pure Talk gives you unlimited talk text, plenty of data. Now compare that to big wireless.

Again, that's PureTalk.com Levin to make the switch to PureTalk Mark Levin, making conservatism great again. Dial in now. 877-381-3811. We are conservatives, constitutional conservatives, and proud of it, unlike the cons, the lunatics and their type. Mark, why do you keep talking about. I don't keep talking about anything. I talk about what I think is important. I mean, we like to have fun too, don't get me wrong. Now we have something called the Save Act. I don't know what it means exactly, but it is properly named. It's Save the American Republic act is what it should be. And apparently it is very, very controversial to require proof of citizenship to vote. USA Today has a new angle, obviously handed to it with talking points from the Democrats that this legislation, America, would hamper the ability of married women to vote. So you married women out there, do you have driver's licenses? I'm just curious. Now, under Sharia law, many of you would not. I would remind the left and the New York slimes and their ilk, but how would requiring proof of citizenship hamper the ability of married women to vote? Does it hamper the ability of married women to get on airplanes, to buy beer, to drive a car? I mean, how stupid is that? Now keep in mind they can't get their fear mongering straight to my black friends out there, of which I have many, by the way. You were the first ones they were trying to upset and fear monger. Did you know that requiring evidence of citizenship like a driver's license is like Jim crow in the 1950s and early 60s? Oh yeah, like Jim Crow. The problem is they, they surveyed a significant black population. They found about 85% of them said, no, it's not. I have a driver's license, I can vote. Funny hearing all these white liberals make these arguments, isn't it? Although Hakeem Jeffries isn't a white liberal. He makes the. It's just like Jim Crow. Did you know a significant majority of Democrats believe you should have an ID to vote? So there they are again. Apparently the Democrats. Jim Crow 2.0. I love the way the Democrats refer to these racist periods in our history when it was them who were the racists during periods of our history. Not you and me, not our forefathers. Theirs. That's right. That's right. Every civil rights bill ever introduced in this country was backed by an overwhelming majority. Republicans. Period. Democrats can't say that. Jim Crow. That's them. The Klan. That's them. Segregation. That's them. Slavery. That's them again. It's amazing how They've been able to corrupt history in the minds of so many. And there they are, the New York Times. Their favorite newspaper might be Pravda. Now, I'm not sure, but the New York slimes, for sure. Yeah, yeah. Sharia law is okay. Islamism is okay. Unless, of course, you believe in liberty, freedom, free speech, freedom of association. You decide your own, your own decisions when it comes to going to the toilet or cooking your food, which hand you use for what are the children out there and the women out there. I bet if we put it to a vote, the vast majority of Americans would say, no, no, I don't want to do that. And so, even though this ideology is a totalitarian, racist, bigoted ideology against anybody who doesn't believe as they do, and that includes other Muslims, the New York Times says it's not a problem. I would ask all of you Cuban Americans, was the New York Times right about Castro? I would ask all of you Ukrainian Americans, was the New York Times right about Stalin? I would ask all my Jewish friends, even you liberals, was the New York Times right about censoring the Holocaust? Hmm? Was the New York Times right about Hamas figures and putting phony photographs on the front page and all that? Was that okay with all of you? And now we're going to believe the New York Times, but now it's controversial. It should be one citizen, one vote. That's it. You're not a citizen. You don't vote. If you're not a citizen and you do vote, you should go to prison. Because the Democrats don't really believe in the democratic process, let alone the Constitution. They don't believe in the democratic process, so they. What do they do? Effectively? They stuff the ballot boxes. Now, you might say, can you prove it? Of course I can prove it. When you oppose what is fundamentally a system of checks and balances against voting fraud, then you support fraud. It's that simple. If you don't have in place protections and safeguards for the banking system, then obviously you must support embezzlement, because what the hell else does it mean? They don't want illegal aliens to be deported. The open a border to 20 million illegal aliens, and now they don't want evidence, proof of citizenship. Now, if I'm a Democrat, I have a better idea. Here's my idea. Why waste your time with requiring people to come into the United States? Send them ballots overseas. What do you think of that, Mr. Producer? Send ballots to people all over the world and just tell them to vote? Why not? I'll be right back. You know what Pure Talk's favorite holiday is? President's Day. Because they believe wireless service should only cost you a couple of presidents. Just a Jackson and a Lincoln to be exact. For $25 a month, Pure Talk gives you unlimited talk text, plenty of data.

Over at tmz, the reporting in the Nancy Guthrie case. The law enforcement believes the kidnappers from Tucson and there is some activity in that bitcoin account and they reported this three hours ago. Apparently we've seen activity for the first time in the Bitcom account listed in the first random note which was sent us here at TMZ and also to two TV stations in Tucson. For various reasons we're not going to reveal the amount but the activity happened in the last 25 minutes. Now that's about 4:30pm Pacific Time which means it's 7:34 Eastern Time. So that is recent, Mr. Producer. Just happened. Potentially big development. Our law enforcement sources say whoever kidnapped her from Arizona home is also from the Arizona area. All right. They're starting to really focus in on who it is. Multiple sources involved in the investigation tell TMZ the operating theory is that the ransom notes were written by the kidnapper and those notes provide clues on where the abductor lives. TMZ is focused for several days on the alleged kidnappers choice of media outlets to receive the letters. The first letter was sent to two Tucson TV stations and tmz. The second letter was sent only one of the Tucson stations. Interesting. My wife and I were in Tucson from we left on Tuesday. We returned this past Saturday. Actually our law enforcement sources believe the person who wrote the ransom note was very familiar with the local station. So much so that it leads them to believe the Tucson area is the abductors home. As we reported, TMZ says the kidnapper is promising to return Nancy to Tucson within 12 hours of receiving the $6 million ransom, which means they're currently somewhere within a 700 mile radius of Tucson. There were two to two ransom deadlines, both of which passed in even though Today host Savannah Guthrie tried reaching out to the kidnapper and offered to pay up. TMZ sources say the images the FBI released today of the apparent kidnapper were just obtained by authorities. The FBI wasn't holding onto the images before releasing them. The feds got them and immediately blast them out publicly. They apparently had to do a great deal of work to get the information off of the security devices because he had damaged them or pulled them out of the wall. But these devices apparently continue to create and retain information for a period of time and that's what they needed to do. Nancy Guthrie was taken against her will, they write on February 1st. She is a pacemaker and needs daily medication. I know what that feels like. That's why I'm worried about her well being, quite frankly. She's not having her heart medications and the bleeding and so forth and so on and the bad heart. It's been now, what, 10, 11 days? I'm not speculating, I'm just reading to you what there is. I don't like the speculation. I just don't. And it's just not what I do and it's not what I'm going to do. There were a couple of big hearings on Capitol Hill today involving ice. And the leaders of ICE and the leaders of our immigration system are very, very courageous, articulate, and that would include the secretary, dhs, Christine Oem, as far as I'm concerned, And Hakeem Jeffries on Ms. Now today again, he lets the cat out of the bag. I want you to listen to this. Cut 14, go.

C (67:28)

We as Democrats, we're going to always stand up for dreamers, stand up for farm workers, stand up for law abiding.

A (67:34)

Immigrants, stand up for women who are sold into sex slavery, stand up for unaccompanied children, 300,000 of whom went missing. Is that who you're standing up for? Farm workers? No, you're not. You're not standing up for anybody but your damn power hungry voting plan. Go ahead.

C (67:56)

Tributing to this country and so many meaningful ways. And the American people know it. Which is why.

A (68:02)

No, no, no, no, no, no, no. You come in legally. We don't know that people are contributing 85% of the Somalis who are in this country in Minnesota are on welfare. I think we're contributing to them. Mr. Producer, about 80% of the Afghanis who are in Virginia are on some form of welfare. I think we're contributing to them, but that's irrelevant whether they're contributing or we're contributing. They're not here legally if they're here illegally. It's that simple. Go ahead.

C (68:33)

They supported the notion of targeting violent felons who are here illegally and figuring out a pathway towards citizenship for others who are here.

A (68:43)

All right, so stop. So here's what he means. Unless they've committed a crime, they should not be deported. That's not what the law says. If you're here illegally, you're supposed to be deported, number one. Number two, maybe they're going to commit a crime, but they get to stay because they wait. Number three, all these people who talk about overthrowing the country, these Islamists, you've heard them, these imams, these so called scholars, because they haven't actually committed a physical crime. They should be able to stay, too. I just want you to understand what Hakeem Jeffries is saying. All of them should get amnesty. All of them. That's the plan. That's the game plan. No voter id. Yes. The birthright citizenship, no deportation. That's it. He just laid it out. He just laid it out. Then we have these geniuses who are at the Olympics now. They're not at the intellectual Olympics, they're at the Olympics, the Winter Olympics. Now, I admire great athletes, but I don't admire great athletes who are stupid. That's a whole other story. Here we have the, the. What is it? The Ta Chuk brothers on Team USA Hockey at the Olympics. This is what Olympians for our country should say. Cut 15, go. I mean, this is.

C (70:22)

Being able to represent the US at this stage in the Olympics is one.

A (70:26)

Of the greatest honors that I've ever had. So I'm truly grateful to be here representing the Red, White and blues.

C (70:32)

I think it kind of means the world.

A (70:34)

It's really like a whirlwind of emotions.

C (70:36)

Flying here this morning.

A (70:38)

Hanging out in the village all day.

C (70:39)

And then, you know, getting fitted for our clothes and, you know, just meeting athletes and then coming here and practicing. And now it's all like, oh, my gosh, like day one's over.

A (70:48)

Like, it's kind of crazy.

C (70:49)

So, really enjoying the experience so far and having a lot of fun.

A (70:53)

And God bless you, too. You haven't heard the others, have you? I'm not going to play them. They're punks Richard Ruhanan. You're punk. You're a punk. Mm. And he's not alone. Narcissistic, self aggrandizing, self promoting. You represent the United States. That's why you're there. You don't represent yourself. That's the bottom line. The power hour is next. I shall return. With Donald Trump back in office, one of his biggest adversaries, top Democrat Dick Durbin of Chicago, is leading the charge to derail President Trump's agenda at every turn. And now Senator Durbin has a new scheme, a government takeover of your credit card. Right now, Americans have thousands of credit card options, all with equal strong security. But Durbin's plan could result in less security. That means more risk for your credit, your identity, and your financial future. Durbin's bill isn't about helping consumers. It's a giveaway to corporate megastores, which could shift costs onto you while putting your rewards and fraud protections in jeopardy. We've seen Durbin's failed policies before. His last big banking regulation backfired, leading to higher costs and fewer benefits for American families. Tell Republican senators, stop Durbin's government takeover of your credit card before it's too late. Learn more@guardyourcard.com that's Guard your paid for by the Electronic Payments Coalition. He's here.

B (72:39)

He's here now. Broadcasting them from the underground command post deep in the bowels of a hidden bunker somewhere under the brick and steel of a non descript building. We've once again made contact with our leader, Mark Len.

A (73:00)

Hello, America. Mark Levin here. Our number, 877-381-3811. Hello, hello, hello. 877-381-3811. Beyond what we've already discussed, nothing new in the Nancy case. Guthrie case. The Nancy Guthrie case. I'm watching it. We brought you up to speed, but there's no point in speculating and repeating myself, so I won't. We have a great guest coming up in a few minutes, our friend Byron Donalds. And we'll have a chat with him. But before we do, I want to make somebody famous. Or more likely, infamous. Her name is Carrie Prejean Buller. The President has set up a Religious Liberty Commission. I don't know how she got on there, but during most of the hearings of the commission, she sounded like Tucker Carlson in drag. She sounded like Marjorie Traitor in Greene. She sounded like a spokesman for Hamas. Obviously, this person wasn't vetted properly. She shouldn't be anywhere near a Religious Liberty Commission. Here's what she said in part cut 1. Go.

D (74:26)

You describe very painful experiences at UCLA, and I take that very serious. At the same time, many of the students who have spoken to me.

A (74:33)

Excuse me, excuse me. We don't take it very serious, do we, Mr. Producer? We take it very seriously. Just saying not to nitpick. Start from the top, please. Go.

D (74:48)

You describe very painful experiences at ucla, and I take that very serious. At the same time, many of the students who I've spoken to personally created, who created those encampments say that they were protesting the killing of tens of thousands of Palestinian civilians in Gaza and their university's financial ties to that war. So I need to ask you, in a country built on religious liberty in the First Amendment, do you believe someone can stand firmly against anti Semitism, including what you experienced, and at the same time condemn the mass killing of Palestinians in Gaza or reject political Zionism or not support the political state of Israel?

A (75:26)

Isn't that clever? Political Zionism, like political Islam, Mr. Producer? See, Israel is a democracy. It's got a significant Christian population even as a bigger Arab Muslim population. They have elections. They have Muslim and Arab judges. They protect the holy sites of not just the Jews, but Christians and Muslims. They don't start wars. They have to defend themselves in order to protect themselves. And you listen to this tripe. Listen to this tripe. Go ahead.

D (76:01)

Do you believe that speaking out about what many Americans view as genocide in Gaza should be treated as.

A (76:07)

There was no genocide in Gaza. And you're giving this speech even now that Hamas has admitted that 80% of the deaths were their terrorist militia. They just admitted it. But she doesn't care. Go ahead.

D (76:23)

Because in my view, the United States cannot and must not make loyalty to a particular theology about Israel a litmus test.

A (76:31)

Nobody's making loyalty to a theology about Israel a litmus test. People can say and do whatever they want, and they are, but so can I. And I can call out bigots and anti Semites and racists and liars if that's what they are. Go ahead.

D (76:53)

For protected speech or moral legitimacy.

E (76:57)

Charlie Kirk said that Jew hate is brain rot. Some people don't have brains. I don't need. I'm not going to assist them in setting a double standard for the Israeli government and the Jewish people as they fight to defend themselves. These were students calling for intifada within days after October 7, before Israel had even entered Gaza. So it's not about them and their using Palestinian civilian death, which is horrendous and horrible. They're using it as a prop and it doesn't matter. My religious beliefs are violated. You don't get to block me because I'm Zionist and a Jew. You want to Protest Israel, great, 100%. Go ahead and do it. But the university let them wear masks even though there's a mask ban. They violated all time, place and manner restrictions. Amplified sounds, went on for years. They kept doing this time after time again. And that's what the judge saw and said, that's not okay. They can protest, they can't block Jews and you can't assist them in doing it.

A (78:00)

It's very complicated, isn't it? Carrie Prijin Bowler. Here's Rabbi Ari Berman and Kerry Brejean Bowler, appointed by the Trump administration, shockingly cut to go.

D (78:17)

So by not being a Zionist, does that make you an anti Semite?

E (78:21)

I don't think you need to be a Zionist to support a country that defends itself and is free and religious in a hostile neighborhood.

D (78:28)

So is anti Zionism.

C (78:30)

One second.

A (78:31)

Yes, it is. It is. Yes.

F (78:36)

To take that point for a second, let me back up.

A (78:38)

I didn't want to step over that answer. I didn't know you were still. Both of you still talking.

D (78:42)

So just to be clear, is anti Zionism anti Semitism? Yes, it is. Under IHRA.

A (78:48)

That's like saying, is anti Vaticanism anti Catholicism? Mr. Producer, you're Catholic. Is anti Vaticanism the center where the Pope lives, the center of the Catholic faith? If you're anti Vaticanism, are you anti Catholic? I would say you are. Doesn't mean you have to agree with the Pope or everything that comes out of the Vatican. But if you're anti Vaticanism, you're anti Catholicism. Go ahead. You're up next.

D (79:22)

You're not sure. So what is the definition?

F (79:24)

I want to speak to that. Undoubtedly, anti Zionism is anti Semitism. And undoubtedly. And one does not have to support the specific policies of the government of Israel, but to not support the right of Israel to exist.

A (79:43)

Stop right there. That's the point. What is Zionism? It means simply the right for Israel to exist. That's all it means. That's all it means. And they've tried to turn it into a dirty word. So if you're anti the right of Israel to exist, that doesn't mean you're anti Jewish. Course it does. Half the Jews in the world live there. It's the Jewish state, like the Vatican is the Catholic state. And I can go into other religions and their states and so forth and so on. So of course it is. This is a. This is a game played by the anti Semites and the bigots. Go ahead, Zionist. Do I remind her that it was blacks, Catholics and Jews who were the main targets of the Klan? Blacks, Catholics and Jews were the main targets of the Klan. Go ahead.

F (80:40)

Not taking that same stand to the 28 Muslim countries and 13 Christian countries in this world is a double standard, is hypocrisy and is absolutely anti Semitism.

D (80:54)

I think it's also important that we not make Islamophobic remarks while we're here today. I would appreciate that.

A (81:01)

Ah, Islamophobic remarks. She throws that out there. Just remember what Christopher Hitchens said. This is a new word that's been invented. So now you can't criticize Islam and what it does to women and children unless you also criticize Israel and Judaism. Well, what does it do to women and children? She's a bigot in my humble opinion. Go ahead.

F (81:29)

I just want to say God forbid was anything like that said. But if you deny, if the Jewish people are the only people that you deny the right to have a. To have its own state. That is absolutely a double standard. Hypocrisy and anti Semitism.

D (81:47)

Well, as you know, I'm a Catholic. I'm a Catholic.

A (81:49)

By the way, she's a recent Catholic. Did you read that, Mr. Producer? A few months ago. A few months ago. But go ahead.

D (82:00)

Let's do not embrace Zionism. Just so you know. So is. Are all Catholics, by the way.

A (82:05)

A lot of Catholics I know, including Mr. They embrace the existence of the state of Israel. In fact, almost every Catholic I know does. So who's she speaking for? The recent convert to Catholicism. Go ahead.

F (82:22)

As I said, anti. Anti Zionism by denying the right of the Jews to have their own state while not saying the same for any other peoples. That is a double standard. Hypocrisy and anti Semitism.

A (82:37)

She's the only one that's been hammering away on this position. Hammering away, hammering away. And people are wondering how the hell did she get through the vetting process? She sounds like care. Maybe she was a. Oh, and you know who she listens to daily? She said, Mr. Producer. Candace Owens. Candace Owens. I'll be right back.

A (83:52)

All right. Looking for something here, Mr. Mrs. America. One moment, hold on. Here we go. Ballistic missiles in Iran Alarming restoration of ballistic missiles. This in part is what Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is going to present to President Trump, according to a published report. And they have all the intelligence. These ballistic missiles, you know, are big as a yellow school bus and they have quite a punch. According to foreign sources, Iran could possess another 2,000 ballistic missiles in the north term in the near term. Byron Donalds, how are you, sir?

C (84:40)

Doing good, Mark. How are you?

A (84:42)

I'm doing well. I want to hit a few subjects with you. Let's start with that one. I mean, I don't know. It seems to me that at some point this regime in Iran needs to be taken out. And if not now, when they're weaker than ever before, the people there want to overthrow them. And I just fear that our children and grandchildren are going to be confronted by a regime with all these ballistic missiles. They're going to have 10, 20,000 of them by that time and multiple nuclear warheads. Everybody's not President Trump. Everybody's not going to stop them. What do you make of this?

C (85:15)

Well, Mark, I think your assessment is correct. The Iranians have never been our friends. What they've relied on is weak leadership in Washington, D.C. and quite frankly in the Oval Office. Now, that's not President Trump, but the Iranians, quite frankly, they love to play the stall tactics so that they can get to weak American leadership potentially and it allows them to move further. They do have nuclear ambitions. That hasn't stopped. They want to be able to reach our coasts. That hasn't stopped. And I think what needs to occur, even if you don't get to regime change, is a clear understanding between, you know, political leadership in the United States, no matter what your party is, that a nuclear Iran is a direct and grave threat to America. That just needs to be understood. It can't be negotiated with.

A (86:03)

The problem is, you know, we had deal after deal after deal with North Korea, both parties, the United States, Europe, the United nations and over about a 20 year period. And of course, that regime's been here, that is the Iranian for 47 years. And they're getting help from North Korea, among others, China and so forth. They just lie. So I just don't buy this. I just don't this agreement stuff. An agreement. If you're an Islamist and you're an ideologue and you live for death and you believe your God tells you you must destroy the west, particularly the United States, the Christians, the Jews, Muslims who don't agree with us, they must be obliterated. The more powerful the weapon, the better. And if you're running a regime in Iran where you just slaughtered at least 50,000 of your own people and you'd slaughter a million if you had to, they're not going to think twice about firing a nuclear missile here. So I'm very concerned about paper agreements. And I don't think in the end that Donald Trump's going to go with that. I think in the end he's probably going to pull the trigger.

C (87:08)

That would be my hope, to be honest with you. And I think this is where, you know, at the end of the day, foreign policy is really the judgment of the commander in chief. But, Mark, you're right in negotiating with who, negotiating over what, they're not going to follow through with their end of the bargain. That's just the way it is. And, you know, I have a simple. When I was in business, the philosophy was simple. You don't negotiate with crazy because you can't count on them to actually live up to their end of the bargain. You don't negotiate with crazy, period.

A (87:37)

I remember Thatcher talking about the enemies there, and I played it. Do you have that, Mr. Producer? Are you able to pull that up quickly? And, you know, they had these great debates, and they still do, but really great. When Thatcher was there in parliament and they were pressing her to negotiate, negotiate, negotiate. And she says, negotiate about what? Negotiate for what? I mean, some of these regimes just need to be defeated when we find it. I'll play that for you. Let's move on. Why is this save act considered controversial? Oh, you do have it. Go ahead, then. As Winston Churchill said in the 30s, if you give in to aggression, there will be no end to the humiliation you will have to suffer. Some people suggest there should be negotiations. What is there to negotiate about? You don't negotiate with someone who marches into another country, devastates it, killing whoever he stands in his way. You get him out, you make him pay, and see that he is never in a position to do these things again. See, Congressman, from my perspective, if this negotiation is a head fake, but it's going on a long time, I understand that. But, you know, negotiation for negotiation's sake, I talk, I tell people, we hear this word warmonger. You know, there's such a thing as diplomacy mongering and some people believe in that and they just pursue it. You know, the Biden regime, that's all they did. Diplomacy mongers plus money. So I think we agree on this. Let's move on to the SAVE Act. The SAVE act says basically you got to show me some idea that you're a citizen before you vote. And so far the Democrats have tried to upset minorities by saying it's like, what do they say it's like discrimination. What's that? Jim Crow? Now there's an article, Byron Donalds that says married women would have more difficulty voting. Isn't this pathetic?

C (89:48)

It's very pathetical. What do you expect from the left, Mark? What is the last public policy argument that the Democrats actually were right on? They're wrong on every public policy issue. There's the outcome of their actions we saw that during the Biden years were disastrous for America. What they are trying to do is to create an emotional argument that doesn't make sense logically is no basis in fact. Now they're trying to say you're going to make it harder on married women to vote. Simply not true. I think that's ridiculous. At the end of the day, you have to prove you're an American if you're going to vote in our elections. And you got to have a government issued voter ID or driver's license to prove you are who you say you are. This is why 80% of the American people support this. 80% of black people, 80% of Hispanic people, 80% of white people, everybody agrees except the Democrats. And the reason they don't agree is not about voting. It is about power. They don't agree because they are trying to make sure that they have an opportunity to win elections into the future so they can push their crazy agenda. And look Mark, real quick for my friends in the Senate, my Republican friends in the Senate, they have to stop acting like this is 1990. They're not negotiating with Bill Clinton, they're negotiating with Elizabeth Warren and AOC and Bernie and Mamdani and Walls in Minnesota. These people are radicals. They are the Democrat socialists of America, not the old school Democrat party. And they got to wake up and realize what's going on.

A (91:23)

If you can hold, hold on. Congressman, I've got a few more questions for you. If people want to help you, where do they go?

C (91:29)

Byron donalds.com, very simple.

A (91:32)

Byron donalds.com byron donalds.com we'll be right back with our friend Emoji moment from Sadie, who writes, I'm not crying, you're crying. This is what I said during my.

G (91:46)

First appointment with my physician at Mochi.

A (91:48)

Because I didn't have to convince him.

G (91:50)

I needed a GLP one. He understood and I felt supported, not judged. I came for the weight loss and stayed for the empathy.

A (91:58)

Thanks, Sadie. I'm Mayra Amit, founder of Mochi Health. To find your mochi moment, visit joinmochi.com.

D (92:06)

Sadie is a Mochi member, compensated for her story.

B (92:09)

My put then the thunder on the right. Call in now. 877-338-13811 Byron Donalds, what do you make.

A (92:20)

Of what seems to be a strategic effort by Islamists, including overseas, to place sort of these segregated Sharia communities around the country? There's a number of them popping up in Texas. There's a couple starting to pop up in Florida. We see some in Michigan and New Jersey now, one in Pennsylvania. What do you make of this?

C (92:45)

The first thing I make is, Mark, is that the Islamist, the Muslim Brotherhood, when they talk about jihad, they mean it and they're serious about this. It's not all by, you know, terrorist activity and suicide bombers. It's also by infiltration. And I think that in America, we have to be very serious about, number one, looking at what's happened to Western Europe and number two, making sure that we're prepared to battle this. Sharia law is incompatible with the United States Constitution. It is incompatible with Western civilization. And so I think Americans writ large, this is way beyond Republicans and Democrats and independents. We're going to have to make a decision as a society and as a culture. Are we going to make sure we stop this before it even begins, or are we going to be overrun? I choose to stand up against it and fight it because we cannot maintain what's made America great. With Sharia moving strongly in America the way it's moved strongly in Western Europe.

A (93:49)

What do you think our children and grandchildren are going to say by not just allowing but inviting people into the country who refuse to assimilate, who refuse to contribute to it? I'm talking about the Islamists now and who are on the record. I play clip after clip after clip and one mosque after another and elsewhere, their imams and their scholars telling us what their plan is. Their plan is to conquer the west, conquer Judaism, conquer Christianity and eliminate it in the United States and the West. They say this over and over and over again. They write it over and over again. We have money pouring into this country from Qatar, among others I mean, let me ask it to you this way. Why do we allow foreign money to come into this country to poison our K through 12 kids and our college kids? Why do we tolerate this?

C (94:41)

In short, Mark, we shouldn't. And we have to examine a lot of these funding sources and make sure it's clear in our laws that you're not allowed to use foreign money to infiltrate our institutions the way you're not allowed to use foreign money to infiltrate our politics. And I think it starts there. Number two to your core question, what would our kids say? I think our future kids would say, man, what the hell we all talking about? What were you doing? Look, Mark, over the last 15 years, I've been involved in politics. We've argued against Obama, we've argued against Biden, we've argued against the radical left. But I think in all those political dynamics in America, as crazy as sometimes I disagree with Bernie and aoc, I would take the battle with them day in, day out over radical Islam and Sharia because they're playing for keeps. It's a different ball game, and it's akin to the Chinese. And I think America has to take this seriously, this threat. We have to be focused on it. And I think even before you can get to the policies and the legal wins, there has to be moral clarity and moral authority on this issue. And this is not partisan. This is about maintaining America for another 250 years.

A (95:49)

There's some candidate running in Florida. What's his name? Fishman or something. What is his name? Mr. Produce, you remember this guy who's like the biggest bigot that I've ever heard running. I don't know if he's running in the Republican primer. What the hell this guy? Do you know I'm talking about Byron, unfortunately.

C (96:10)

Yeah, I do know who you're talking about. What is the name? When it comes to. I choose not to repeat it.

A (96:15)

I know, but I need to figure it out so I can Google it. Is it Fish Stein? What is his name?

C (96:22)

Fishback.

A (96:23)

Fish back. This guy's a real sicko, isn't he?

C (96:29)

Yeah. Look, I think what you have here is somebody who's following the algorithm on social media and really trying to ingratiate themselves. But you know, look at market in Florida. Let me just be very clear on this. We are doing very well, not just in polling, but obviously in fundraising, but also in grassroots activity all across the state. We feel very good about our campaign to be Florida's next governor. That's why we have the support of President Trump. Rick scott, the majority of our sheriffs, the vast majority of the Republican congressional and state delegation, we're in good shape, but nothing's given. Mark we're going to go earn it from the people of Florida. That's why we've been in 52 of the 67 counties and we're not going to stop.

A (97:12)

And again, if people want to help you, where do they go?

C (97:15)

Go to byron donalds.com follow me on social media. Everything's Eyron Donalds. We're really focused. Mark foster, Florida is the best state in the country. We're the crown jewel of America. And so my mission as Florida's next governor is to maintain all the great work that Governor DeSantis has done in his leadership in Florida, but then also prepare Florida for its future. And so in 30 years, when I'm 77 years old, Mark, I want Florida to remain the best state in America. That's the mission. That's why I'm running. And so the people of Florida, I just ask you for your vote and I ask you for your support.

A (97:48)

When is this primary?

C (97:50)

August 18th. So we're about six months away from the primary.

A (97:54)

We got a ways to go. I'm gonna have to jump in soon.

C (97:56)

Ways to go.

A (97:57)

Byron Donalds, you know, we love you. My wife loves you. We love your wife. Your whole family, just good, good people. God bless you, my friend. Thanks for coming on.

C (98:07)

Thank you, Mark.

A (98:08)

Of course. Take care.

C (98:09)

God bless you, my friend.

A (98:10)

Bye bye. He's a good man. I like him a lot. I think I'll do this tomorrow because it's going to take a little while. And I want to walk you through it. There was a very important hearing today by Jason Smith, who is the chairman of the, what is it, the Tax Committee, basically. And they were looking at these organizations, these organizations that are funding AOCs, parties and movements and so forth, these left, far left nonprofits that get foreign money, have foreign ties undermining our country under the guise of protest. We're going to spend some significant time on this tomorrow and there was a hearing as well. And I'm also going to cover it on Life, Liberty and Living on Fox, assuming they run the show with Congressman Smith. And we're also going to have former Speaker Newt Gingrich, that's Saturday's show. And we're also going to have on Sunday retired four star general Jack Keane. So we're going to be doing a lot of cool stuff if the show runs on Saturday and Sunday. All right, let me see who is on the Phone lines here. I always try and get in some calls. Now it is talk radio. Not just host talk radio, but you never know. Looks like we're loaded here. Let me just go right down the line, Finch, Portland, Oregon on the Mark Levin app. Go right ahead, please.

C (99:49)

Yes, this is Finch in Portland, Oregon. If you.

A (99:52)

Congratulations.

C (99:53)

It really is.

A (99:55)

Thank you.

C (99:56)

I don't know how I've survived Portland. How could I live in such a beautiful place like Iran, right? Or Iran and just such off people like, what is going on there? I don't know. I have no idea.

A (100:14)

It's hell on earth. It's what I call an Iranian. It's an Iranian Nazi regime concentration camp. They slaughter people at will. You dare not come out at night. You dare not say a word that contradicts the regime or look a funny way. They have prisons full of young people who they're executing night and day. And I think the worst of it will be known once that regime falls. That regime needs to go. That regime has to go. Being a conservative and not a con like lunatic. All right, Finch, thank you for your call, my brother. Let's keep going. Let's go to Eric, Sacramento, California, XM satellite. Go right ahead, please.

C (101:01)

I am a American Muslim that is opposed to Sharia law. Yeah, I'm opposed to it.

A (101:07)

Explain.

C (101:07)

Everybody explain. Okay, so Sharia law came about in the Hadith, which is not the Quran. It's the traditions of, of what Muhammad was trying to institute. It is 1600 years old, a doctrine of living. It is not obligatory. It is not in the Quran. I give you an example. Praying five times a day is nowhere in the Quran or the Bible. The Bible and the Quran both speak of establishing regular prayers. But the five times a day thing was something he came up with when. When his people ask him, hey, how often should we pray? Scholars, educated people, very learned Muslims know that a reformation is needed in Islam. And what is happening with Sharia law is you have a great deal of people that are swept up in, you know, what they would consider, you know, oh, the, the holy way of living and everything like that. But they've been brainwashed by 1600 years of tradition that have nothing to do with the religion. That's why I always try and explain that Sharia law has nothing to do with the religion, has more to do with politics and power.

A (102:09)

Well, that's why. That's why people, reformists in the Muslim faith talk about political Islam, because that's what you're dealing with, right?

C (102:20)

And the reason why I wanted to explain this is because people, I don't want people to think that Islam, the religion is Sharia law. Sharia law is not the religion. I studied for four years in college, every type of religion that I can, that I can get my hands on. And I landed in Islam. And I landed in it because of, because of the religious writings, not the hadith, not the traditions.

A (102:45)

And are you concerned about what you're seeing happening in our country?

C (102:50)

Absolutely, I'm concerned about it. It means that you have a bunch of people. Okay, I'll give you an anecdotal story. One time I was at the, at the mosque and I went up to the imam and I said, hey, I got a question about the five times a day prayer. And I brought up the fact that it's not in the Quran. And he said to me, it sounds like you're an academic. I said, yes, I am. He goes, well, that's fine, and I agree with you, but I'm trying to help my congregation learn how to live. And at that point I was like, okay, well, you're not teaching them right. And I told them that I'm not a very popular person at the mosque. Now when it comes to scholars and people that are very learned in Islam, I get along great with them. But the general Islamic congregation, they just don't get it. They are, they have been brainwashed. And unfortunately, you know, it's sort of like if you grew up, okay, if you grew up India, over in Punjab, India, you would be a devout Hindu. That's just the way it is. I mean, you're a product of your environment. The problem is, is you have a people, an entire swath of people that are products of their environment and they believe certain things that were taught to them. That is just not true. Like some, a lot of Muslims believe that it's a sin to eat with your left hand. Nowhere in the Quran does it say that it's just part of their traditions, which is 1600 years old and they need to reform it, they need to clarify it for the modern day. And I. And I was. I'm hope. I know I don't have a lot of time to explain.

A (104:13)

And I got 30 seconds till the break.

C (104:17)

Well, well. And like I said, I'm not.

A (104:20)

Eric, you can call back again. You don't have to get it all done in one call. We appreciate your contribution here because my friends who are Muslims say similar thing, that the extremists have taken over the faith. Now, whether you believe that or not is up to you folks, but the point is the extremists are there. And if they represent 5, 10, 20% of the faith, that is a big number. You can call again, Eric. Of course. We'll be right back.

Wait until they see these video podcast. What do you think, mister? You're excited about it, aren't you, Rich? I'm excited to do it. Next Tuesday, February 17th, we'll be posting it at about noon eastern time. You know, the podcast world is a cesspool with some exceptions. People who can't say the F word enough. They're in their 50s, they think they're cool. They have little girls, what an embarrassment. Other guys smoke pot on the air. They think that's cool. That's not cool, that's stupid.
