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' once again made contact with our leader, Mark Levin. Sam,
Mark Levin
I have to turn on the mic. I understand. Hello, America, Mark Levin here. Our number is not what it should be. We're gonna have to get a new number. Rich, we're gonna have to tell them, get an easier number. Get a new number. We can't fix the old one. They keep telling us it's fixed. They're trying to, but we're not the phone company. You understand? The number is 4 6, 9. Complicated 1. 547-4482. You might want to jot it down or tattoo it on somebody's forehead. 4, 6, 9. Don't do that. 547-4482. Besides, it's a temporary number. Well, you've spoken, folks. And I'll tell you what. Today's video podcast is breaking records on Liberty Voice, and I think I know why. 80% of it is about American history in the lead up to the Revolutionary War. Actually, the lead up to 1776, the Revolutionary War, I would argue, started much before that. And I explained that on Today's video podcast. And it's clear in this audience, because you're smart, you don't want to hear all that gibberish and all the F bombs. And of course, I don't do that. Anyway, you want red blooded, patriotic American history. And today on the Liberty Voice video podcast, that's what you got. And you're going to learn a tremendous amount in the lead up to July 4th, 1776. And you're going to see that the Revolutionary War actually started before that date. And we'll get into it. We do into. I try to make it as interesting as possible, too. So those of you who haven't checked it out yet, today's a good day. All you have to do is go to rumble or YouTube. It's absolutely free. I think it's intriguing. We had a lot of fun today with it. I was very excited about it. I felt great when we were done. It really did. And I think that's what these platforms should be about. You can't be about it every single day. I get it. Sometimes you got to deal with what you got to deal with. But I always try to return to that. All right, now, let's see here. Actually, actually, let's play this 50 second clip, cut to Mr. Producer. Cut to go. The Revolutionary War actually began in 1775. The Declaration of Independence was signed as, you know, July 4, 1776. So that's where people pick the date. That's fine. That's a very crucial date. It's maybe the most crucial in our history to September 1783. So that war went on for seven and a half years. They weren't looking for an off ramp. They weren't looking for a peace deal. They weren't looking for get in and get out. And think about it. You had 13 disparate colonies, separate colonies, fighting the most powerful military force on the face of the Earth. And yet 40 to 45% of the colonists who supported it and the rest who either opposed it actively, about 20% were kind of neutral. So the majority of the colonists were either opposed to the war or neutral. Got that? Very important, I've said many revolutions, good and bad. They start with a minority. They're not part of a majority. Actually heard somebody on Fox say that the other day. So they must be a great listener to this program, Mr. Producer, because I've gone through this many, many times. And by the way, I applaud that. That's a good thing, not a bad thing. Now, I'm trying to follow and I'm listening Very carefully, to the President's comments, to the Secretary of Defense's comments, to the Secretary of State's comments, to. I'm not hearing a lot of comments from the Vice President. Maybe that's intended for a reason. The reason I don't know. And I'm not sure where we are with this war. I mean, other than beating the hell out of the enemy day in and day out, which is important. I'm not sure if they're looking for this off ramp. It's a phrase I cannot stand. And one reporter says it, then they all start repeating it. But if we're looking for a deal, I don't mean a tremendous deal. A deal, or if we're not. Now, our friend Eli Lake over at the Free Press, he's a great reporter, and that is a great news site. You don't always have to agree with them, but you really get interesting information there and discussions and opinions. He points out, in his view, that the president is using psychological warfare with the enemy. And I have to agree with that. I think that's right. In other words, he's sending not massive ground troops, but he's making it clear. We're sending the 82nd Airborne, the Delta Force, the Special Forces. He's talking about how uranium is dug deeply into the ground. If you've listened to me on this program or my Fox show, you know that I was the first to even bring this up, that that could be why we need to send the Special Forces in, and they're trained to deal with this sort of thing. I mean, you really don't want to leave the uranium there. Now, you don't actually have to take it out. You can. You can, in effect, poison it, that is, destroy it with a mixture of various types of chemicals and things. I'm no expert, but I did read that much. But whether you destroy it or remove it, we have some people saying we ought to just get out of there and leave it. Now, how crazy is that? Especially now when they've been effectively militarily defeated. Now the problem is it's not enough. Mark, what do you mean? At the end of World War II, Germany, among others, was destroyed, pummeled to death. In fact, their industrial center was destroyed and whatever was still functioning was removed by other countries in Europe, and they were forced to sign a peace deal and their economy was a disaster. And it was said that World War I was the war to end all wars. Out of the ruins of Germany was born the Third Reich and Hitler. Less than 20 years later, the Third Reich And Hitler were born out of the ruins of Germany. And what followed were 60 million people killed. Of course, the Holocaust. World War II. World War II, Greta. World War I. After World War II, we had learned our lesson. We destroyed the access powers, literally leveled them, literally. As you know about the atomic bombs in Japan. Well, we did effectively the same thing to Germany, but with conventional bombs, just relentless bombing of the cities. Those of us, those of us who understand history understand that we don't do that anymore. And yet we're being attacked even now for committing war crimes. We haven't committed any war crimes. The left is sick and they'll always be sick. The casualties were unbelievable. And of course, we're on the side of the people of Iran, the Persian people, not the regime. So we wouldn't do that anyway. But that said, we haven't sent in hundreds of thousands of ground troops. We did that in Iraq. We did it in Afghanistan. We certainly haven't done it here. But there is the issue of the uranium, but you're not allowed to bring it up because you'll be attacked as a this and I don't care. Those people don't matter to me. The nitwits, the half wits, the no wits, the woke Right neo fascists, they don't matter. Neither do the Marxist Islamists when it comes to matters of war and peace. They're on the side of the enemy. And they claim they're on the side of we, the people. No, they're not. So my admonition is a premature end to this military operation will eventually lead to an even stronger Iranian regime. You know what they're doing today? They're slaughtering more people. And as fast as they can. Anybody who blinks the wrong way, anybody who has raised a voice, anybody. They see this right now as their opportunity to kill as many people as they can. And that's what they're doing right now. Right now. Now, you won't hear anybody else bring it up because apparently people don't give a damn. I do give a damn. I do a lot. I don't understand people who don't give a damn and say it's none of our business. If we can do something about it, we ought to do something about it. That's like people sitting on a subway or on a park bench and somebody has their throat slit and they say, hey, there's nothing I can do about it anyway. Hey, that's why there's Good Samaritans and there's other people sit on their ass and do nothing. And we shake our heads well, here we're talking about tens of thousands of people. We own the skies, we own the waters. And we say no big deal. You know what else it tells me? That regime is not dead. They don't have an air force, they don't have a navy. They've lost their first and second tier of so called leaders, but they're not dead. They're not done with. But the opposition in our country, whether it be the neo fascists or the Islamists and the Marxists or democrats in the media, they try to box you in. No troops. We don't even care if it's just special force. Nope, nope. No democracy project. I didn't say a democracy project. We have to eliminate the regime hook, line and sink. Not. Can't do that. Can't. No. You got to leave the uranium underground. You leave it there, we can't do anything. I can't do anything with uranium. No, no uranium. So in other words, they tie your hands in a thousand different ways so you can't win. That's their idea. You can't win. And by the way, for all the bigots, racists and Jew haters who are podcasters, and not just them, there's multiple reports that the Arab countries are urging the President to stay the course, to eliminate this regime. So here you have, like never before, like never before, the Arab countries and Israel united behind the United States. We've never seen anything like this. And even more Jews, Christians and Muslims. Not Islamists, I'm talking about Muslims, all united in the same cause to destroy Iran's regime permanently. This is what I mean and others mean when we talk about this incredible peace opportunity here that will change the face of the globe. Change it. I'm not talking about democracy breaking out. I'm talking about some of these countries able to work together that haven't been able to work together before. Even Arab countries hate Arab countries, depending on which countries and which monarchies we're talking about. So there's an enormous opportunity here. Enormous opportunity. We've done fantastically well. The latest poll that's out says 51% of all Americans support the President in this war effort. And it's growing. It's growing. 51% and of course over 90% MAGA. 86%. I think it was Republican Party. But that means moderates and some Democrats see the benefit of this 51%. It was underwater before. Now we don't fight wars based on polls. But since people keep bringing up polls, it's funny, they're not going to bring up that one. That's the Harvard Daily Mail poll out today and they might as well smother it with a pillow because all the big mouths out there pretending it doesn't exist. It's also another poll out there. I'm going to mention it, but I'm not going to waste a lot of time on it. That shows Tucker Carlson and friends are mostly despised by the American people. They've 24% positive view the American people of him, 24% and the rest of the American people either have no respect for the guy or don't know who he is. This goes for the whole cabal. 40% of Republicans have a positive view, but 60% either don't or don't know who he is or don't care. I've told you before, these people are not really influencers. They're not influencing anybody except the most bizarre among them. And as far as their following goes, so much of it is bots, foreigners and so forth and so on. We'll be right back.

Just had its biggest year since 1979, up 67%, 53 new all time highs, then blew past 5, $500 in January. Right now, almost every major bank on Wall street, they're telling their clients this is the buy window before gold hits 6, 7, even $8,000. Meanwhile, silver is sitting on a structural supply deficit for the sixth straight year, meaning there's not enough silver for industrial use. Many central banks in China, Poland, Brazil, India are buying gold at record prices. Now's the time to diversify, ladies and gentlemen, with silver and gold. Call Monetary Gold today.

Welcome front, by the way, but you haven't heard about this. The Trump Effect, Breitbart writes consumer Confidence defies warfares rises for second straight month by John Carney. American consumers shrugged off the Iran war and rising gas prices in March, pushing the Conference Board's consumer Confidence index up to 91.8% from 91% in February, well above the 87.9% economists surveyed by Bloomberg had expected. They're always wrong, these guys. Was the second consecutive monthly increase in consumer confidence a sharp rebuke to forecasters who predicted the combination of military conflict in the Middle east and surging energy costs would end confidence tumbling. My advice to the administration, to the President, stay the course. Steady she goes. Steady she goes. Ignore all the. All the howling coyotes out there. They don't know a damn thing. And some of them are out to undermine our country and undermine you. Stay the course. Silver is now in its sixth consecutive year of structural supply deficit, meaning demand is outpacing supply of silver every single year. Solar energy alone is projected to consume 160 to 194 million ounces of silver this year. Because silver is irreplaceable in solar cell technology and the world is using more and more silver. There's no substitute, folks. Silver is currently trading at a great price, 71 to $80 per ounce after hitting $121 earlier this year. That's the zigzag I talk about. But the trajectory is up, meaning the industrial demand story hasn't even fully played out yet. Call Monetary Gold today.

Look folks, wars, military operations have consequences. And if the main consequence of this one, which will be relatively short is a temporary spike in gasoline prices, I think we can handle this. I mean, our people, Americans, our parents, our grandparents and people before them, they've sacrificed a hell of a lot more. A hell of a lot more. We had went to battle in Korea to contain communism and we went to battle in Vietnam to contain communism. We lost a lot of lives. There was a lot of sacrifice, a tremendous amount of sacrifice in this war. There has not been a tremendous amount of sacrifice. Every death is one too many. But I'm talking about context and looking at it comparatively. They want to build nuclear weapons to strike us. If they have them, they will. Imminent five weeks from now. Who cares? Why do we care what these politicians say anyway? These dumb bastards can't even fund the government properly while they steal our taxes, these morons. And the Democrat party couldn't even secure the border because they didn't want to. Now they don't want to deport people. They run up the debt so high that we're going to pay consequence for that and a bad one. And we're supposed to listen to them above the word imminent like a bunch of punks? It's not imminent, it's imminent. Imminent who we're going to rely on Bernie Sanders to tell us what's imminent. Or Adam Schiff or Hakeem Jeffries. Are you kidding me? Imminent? They don't even know how to spell it. Schumer. I say imminent. They think enema, Mr. Producer, I think. But in any event, no, it's a temporary spike. The price is going to come way down. The economy is going to explode in growth with the tax cuts, the regulatory controls, that is, controls over regulations. We are actually energy independent today. We weren't four years ago. We weren't two years ago. We are right now something we've always sought to be, and we were during the first Trump term. So the economy is poised to explode in growth and wealth creation. It's going to happen just a matter of time. And I don't mean a long time. I mean a short time. But we got to deal with a problem. We can't keep kicking it down the road. It just wasn't possible anymore. And you have the right man in the right place at the right time to do the right thing, and that's what he's doing. He deserves our support. Forget about the grifters, forget about the left, forget about the Democrats. We know what they're up to. They want us to lose so they can be proven right or something stupid like that. And so this is a matter of life and death. I think by doing this, in hindsight, history will say the President of the United States saved millions and millions of people, including in our country, especially in our country. These monsters, these throwbacks to the 7th century, they want to destroy the West. And in order to destroy the west, you got to first come through the United States of America. Israel wasn't the first on their list. We're the first on their list. And so when you have crazy people, they were saying that Israel dragged us into this war, even though the president says no, actually, I dragged them into the war. It's irrelevant. It's inconsequential. Number one, it didn't happen. But they'll keep saying it because they're, they're mentally ill, they're sick, and they're putting down the President, United States, and they're putting down our country and our military. Everybody who shows up on TV or radio as a podcaster, who claims to be America first or MAGA or a conservative or whatever they are, should be celebrating what we've done, celebrating it and urging that we finish the job, finish the job that we started. Finish it not prematurely. Don't declare victory before victory, because history will Disprove it in a horrible way. Victory is victory when there is no more threat from this regime. And I don't mean tomorrow with missiles. I mean ever. Empower the people in there, give them the weapons they need. Unarmed people cannot overthrow an Islamist regime. It will never happen. They can possibly overthrow a communist regime, but the regimes are different. Different. In the end, The ideology has similarities and we've talked about them many times and dissimilarities and we've talked about them many times. Their one similarity is to try and destroy us, the west, particularly the United States. We're the pinnacle, we're the North Star. Call us whatever you wish, that's who we are. Boots on the ground. That's another phrase. Like exit ramp. Boots on the ground. Another phrase. Forever war is another. You know, the, the isolationists and the anti war left, both of whom would have us commit suicide as a nation, they come up with slogans and phrases like good communists and good fascists. That's what they do. Here's Pete Hegseth this morning and it's worth watching his press conferences, by the way, does a hell of a job. Cut three, go.
Unidentified Conservative Commentator
President Trump and boots on the ground. I don't understand why the base, which they have already, they understand, wouldn't have faith in his ability to execute on this. Look at his track record of pursuing peace through strength, America first outcomes. What he's simply saying, and it's exactly true. And I've said from this podium too, we're not going to foreclose any option. You can't fight and win a war if you tell your.
Mark Levin
According to the left, according to the neo fascist, according to the media. You got to give us a day and a time when it's over, tell us what quote unquote, off ramp you're going to take, assure everybody, ensure everybody. You're never going to have, quote, unquote, boots on the ground. You're going to let the uranium stay. Now this is madness, absolute madness. Go ahead.
Unidentified Conservative Commentator
Or what you are not willing to do to include boots on the ground. Our adversary right now thinks there are 15 different ways we could come at them with boots on the ground. And guess what? There are. So if we needed to, we could execute those options on behalf of the President of the United States and this department. Or maybe we don't have to use them at all. Maybe negotiations work, or maybe there's a different approach. The point is to be unpredictable in that. Certainly not let anybody know what you're willing to do or not do. But if Anybody has internalized the lessons of Iraq and Afghanistan as the first one, President Trump, to call them out for what they are, he's not going to repeat those lessons.
Mark Levin
And there's a vet, a combat veteran from, I think Iraq may have been, Afghanistan may have been both cut five go.
Unidentified Conservative Commentator
But if Iran is wise, they will cut a deal. President Trump doesn't bluff and he does not back down. You can ask Khamenei about that. The new Iranian regime should know that by now. This new regime, because regime change has occurred.
Mark Levin
Now, that's what's interesting. They're saying that a lot regime change has occurred. Technically, when a new administration comes in, that's the case. But this regime runs deep, very deeply in the society and the culture and of course, in the governing system. So regime change has occurred in the sense that the people who were in charge are dead. But the ideological party and the commingling of faith with politics, that has not changed. That's still there. And that's what they're grappling with because they have to figure out, what do we do about this? It's not an easy question, is it? It's not an easy question. But if nothing's done about it, they'll be back. They'll be back. Go ahead.
Unidentified Conservative Commentator
President Trump will make a deal. He is willing and the terms of the deal are known to them. If Iran is not willing, then the United States War Department will continue in
Mark Levin
the terms of the deal that I saw. It is said to be correct in the newspaper. No, I haven't seen it elsewhere. But some of these points, if not all of them, struck me as unconditional surrender. You can accept an unconditional surrender. You move the power structure, you give power to the people to create whatever they want to create. But I want to say this again, I've said it over and over again. We need to arm the Iranian people. We need to arm them. That's a big damn country. And those borders are porous. They can't close all their borders. Certainly not now. Reagan armed the opposition in Afghanistan and overthrew the government that was backed there by the Russians. He armed the Angolan freedom fighters. In Africa, he armed the Nicaraguan freedom fighters, all to good effect. So we didn't have, quote, unquote, boots on the ground in Afghanistan. Now, that's not 100% true. We had some intelligence and special forces, but not, you know, full army and that sort of thing. And we armed them heavily. We armed the freedom fighting guerrillas, we armed them in Nicaragua. We armed the opposition In Angola. I don't know if we're arming the Persian people or not, but there's no time to waste. We certainly ought to be doing that in a big, big, big way. And not just with pistols and rifles. They're going to need more than that. And these are people who are willing to fight. I mean, they're sacrificing their own children. Not intentionally. Their children are going to the streets. These are Westerners in many respects. That's their mindset. And they're getting slaughtered because they're up against the barbarians I posted, and I hope you'll check it out on my social sites. Hey. A mother who looks like she would be an American right here in our country, holding her son's jacket. Did you see that, Mr. Medusa? And crying uncontrollably. They had just executed her son for marching in the streets. Not violent. Not violent at all. And she's crying uncontrollably. I can just identify with this. I don't know what it is. It's like. It's like the poor college student who was murdered in Chicago, shot in the back of her head by the illegal alien. I identify with this or I project. I don't know what it is, but it wrenches at my heart and my soul when I see these things. Some people are cool as a cucumber man. They can just move along. It's none of our business. We can't do anything. But what if we can do something? What if that was your son or your daughter? What if we can do something but we just choose not to do something? Or people among us choose not to do something? I can't live that way. I don't believe that. And I don't believe people of faith believe it either. The people in Iran need to be armed. And now. I'll be right back. A meaningful season is approaching for millions of families. A time to reflect on resilience, renewal, and the journey from hardship. To hope. For those observing Passover or Easter, it's a moment to gather, to remember where we come from, and to look forward to brighter days. But this year, many in Israel will mark the season under the strain of conflict. Air raid sirens, families racing for shelter, elderly men and women unsure where to turn. Daily life has become tense and unpredictable, and parents do their best to comfort their children through nights filled with uncertainty. That's why the International Fellowship of Christians and Jews is on the ground right now, delivering food, emergency aid, supporting bomb shelter, readiness, and caring for vulnerable seniors, including Holocaust survivors. In a season centered on hope and renewal. Your support of the Internet International Fellowship of Christians and Jews can make a real difference for those facing fear and instability. To lend a hand, please call 888-585-IFCJ. That's 888-585-IFCj. Or visit levinforthefellowship.org that's L E V I N for the fellowship.org Folks, this is absolutely crucial and your gift is tax deductible. I'm gonna post this right now. Please pass the word Arm the Iranian people immediately. I've been calling for this now several weeks on the program here. One thing we can do, which Reagan did in Afghanistan, Angola and Nicaragua, is arm the people in Iran so they are no longer butchered by these monsters without the ability to fight back. They will rise up as a real fighting force, but they need weapons, and it must be done immediately, especially if we're talking about ending our military operation in a few weeks. Arm them. Don't just say, now it's up to the Iranian people. Everybody I'm living, it's up to the Iranian. Arm them. Then it's really up to the Iranian people. There shouldn't be any objections to arming the Iranian people so they can defend themselves and fight back. What in the world could the possible objection be? Nothing that I would consider effective. Pete Hagseth, cut four. Mr. Producer, go.

What those Americans said to me, young and old, officer and nco, male and female, black and white, was, let's finish the mission, get us even more bombs. Bigger bombs, more targets. Let us finish this. In fact, Admiral Cooper noted this morning that the three Air Force captains shot down by Kuwaiti friendly fire early in the fight weeks ago. They never left the theater. All dropped bombs over Tehran last night. These men and women live the Iranian threat every day. Incoming missiles and drones and know what a world looks like, what the world would look like if Iran had the most dangerous weapons in the world, a nuclear weapon. As President Trump has said time and time again for years, and in this administration, Iran cannot have a nuclear bomb. And they won't. These troops, they want to finish this fight for their kids and their grandkids. This is about history. This is about legacy. Success matters. And because of this president and these Americans, we are closer than ever before to winning. President Trump is doing what no other president had the guts to do. Previous presidents were all talk. He's all action.
Mark Levin
A lot is said about General Kaine Raging Kane. My focus is on Admiral Cooperation. He's the one directly overseeing these military activities and this guy Cooper, he's a Noah Holds bar, military man. You give him his orders and he says, yes, sir, and he takes care of business. I'm very, very impressed with Admiral Cooper. We'll be right back.

He's here now. Broadcasting him 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.
Mark Levin
Hello, America. Mark Levin here. Our number, 877-381-381. It's not our number. 469-547-4482. I'm like Pavlov's dog here. 469-547-4482. Our temporary backup number, Trey Youngst of Fox News. He stationed, I think in Tel Aviv, sometimes Jerusalem. He was on Fox and Friends today and he said something that is very important. I think Cut six go.
Chip Roy
The sentiment that we get from the Israeli people that we talk to is
Mark Levin
to finish the job.
Chip Roy
They don't want to have to deal with this. They don't want to have to have
Mark Levin
their children raised in bomb shelters on Wednesday.
Chip Roy
Tomorrow the Israeli people will mark the
Mark Levin
first night of Passover and many of
Chip Roy
them will be having their Passover seders in bomb shelters. And it's just a reality that the Israeli people are tired of. They want these threats to be reduced against their country and they'd like to
Mark Levin
live in peace and stability. And they're not the only ones. They're not the only ones. Here's a headline from the associated depressed Gulf allies privately make the case to Trump to keep fighting until Iran is decisively defeated. None of them want this monster in their neighborhood. The AP is using anonymous sourcing they write to provide information for this story. Gulf allies of the United States led by Saudi Arabia and the UAE are urging President Trump to continue prosecuting the war against Iran, arguing that Tehran hasn't been weakened enough by the month long U. S led bombing campaign, according to U.S. gulf and Israeli officials. So the Israelis and the Arabs on exactly the same page and they live in the neighborhood and they're having to deal with this, those incoming ballistic missiles and nonetheless they're saying we'll deal with them. But we got to take this regime out. After private grumbling at the start of the war that they weren't given adequate advance notice. Gee, I wonder why. Some of the regional allies are making the case to the White House that the moment offers a historic opportunity to cripple Tehran's clerical rule once and for all. And I agree with that, and I'm not alone in that. Officials from Saudi Arabia, uae, Kuwait, Bahrain have conveyed in private conversations they do not want the military operation to end until there are significant changes in the Iranian leadership. And they don't just mean, you know, one moving into the slot. Moving into the slot. They mean wiping it out, changing it altogether. They want significant changes there or there's a dramatic shift in Iranian behavior, according to the officials, who are not authorized to comment publicly and spoke on the condition of anonymity, goes on. The push from the Gulf nations comes as Trump vacillates, they say, between claiming the Iran's decimated leadership is ready to settle the conflict and threatening to further escalate the war if the deal is not reached soon. I think this quote, unquote vacillating is exactly, as Eli Lake put it in the free press, its psychological warfare against that regime. They can't tell what the hell is going on or what's going to go on. And I believe that. Then they add this all the while, Trump is struggling to rally public Support. It's at 51% today, and it's rising, and it's rising. But listen to what they. Trump is struggling to rally public support at home for war that's left more than 3,000 dead across the Middle east and is shaking the global economy. Seriously, folks, seriously. They write stuff like this. It's shaking the global economy. We understand what's taking place. You know, it shakes the world economy more. 10, 20,000 ballistic missiles fired to Europe. That would really shake the economy, don't you think, Mr. Producer? Or ballistic missiles with nuclear warheads. Now, that would be a shake. That'd be a milkshake there. That'd be big shake. So they, they write this stuff out of context. They provide no context whatsoever. None. Saudi Arabia is fighting back hard. Qatar's fighting back. I'm quoting, UAE is fighting back. Kuwait's fighting back. Bahrain's fighting back, Trump told reporters on Air Force One on Sunday evening as he made his way to Washington from his home in Florida. They're all fighting back. They are. As is Israel. I love this. This guy Bannon is such a puke. So he attacks Yair Netanyahu One of the sons of the Netanyahu, he said, let him leave Miami and suit up and go to war in Israel just to show you how far behind his bigotry and anti Semitism that fat slob is. He already left Miami for Israel, like, months ago. He's in Israel. I don't know what he's doing there exactly, but he's there. He's not in Miami. But they'd be foolish to put him on the front lines because the enemy would obviously be trying to kill him the whole time. But nonetheless, he's there. But it doesn't matter to the bigots. You know, they just throw this stuff out, stir the pot, get newspaper headlines. That's all they care about. They're nothings. They've done nothing with their lives of any consequence. Nothing profound. Have they ever said, remember I told you that Bannon was taking you for a ride, where he's saying Trump's going to go for a third term? I know. I'm a good source. Remember I said he's full of crap? Well, he's full of crap. How do you think he got so big? He's full of crap. You know, these are serious times. This is war and peace, and we got all these. These mental munchkins, these court jesters, all out there making their own stupid statements. They don't even make any sense. While regional leaders are broadly supportive now of US efforts, one Gulf diplomat describes some divisions with Saudi Arabia and the UAE leading the calls for increasing military press. Well, of course they're getting hit, but that's my point. The countries that are having to deal with the. With these ballistic missiles are the ones that saying, let's keep at this. Let's keep at it. We got to end this once and for all. We can't live this way in this neighborhood. We just can't do it. Can't do it. A diplomat said Saudi Arabia has argued to the US that ending the war now won't produce a good deal. One guaranteeing security for Iran's Arab neighbors. I agree with that, too. Believe it or not, Saudis say an eventual war settlement must neutralize Iran's nuclear program, destroy its ballistic missile capabilities, end Tehran support for proxy groups, and also ensure that the Strait of Hormuz cannot be effectively shut down by the Islamic Republic in the future, as it has during the conflict. Now. What's the one thing they leave out? The people of Iran? Everybody's leaving them out. I'm not leaving them out. They must not be left out, period. Senior Emirati officials UAE become more pointed in their rhetoric toward Iran. An Iranian regime that launches ballistic missiles at Homs, weaponizes global trade and supports proxies is no longer acceptable feature of the regional landscape. That interesting Israel's been saying that for what, decades? Nora Al Qabi Yabba Dabadoo, a minister of the state of the UAE's foreign ministry, wrote in a column published Monday by the state linked English language newspaper the National. She added, we want guarantee that this will never happen again. Well, you're going to have to take them out by the roots because otherwise it will happen again. So that's the issue. That's what's on the table now. That's the question. We need to do it. But how do you do it? The White House declined to comment for the story. Secretary Rubio said Monday he underscored the US and its Arab its Gulf Arab allies are in sync about Iran. Okay now the Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman, the king's de facto leader, told the White House officials that a further defanging of Iran's military capabilities and clerical leadership serves the long term interests of the Gulf region and beyond. Still, the Saudis are sensitive to the fact that the longer the conflict goes on, the more opportunity Iran has to to carry out strikes on the kingdom's energy infrastructure. A Saudi government official underscored the kingdom ultimately wants to see a political solution to the crisis, but its immediate focus remains safeguarding its people and critical infrastructure. And it goes on and on. But you get the point. I'll be right back.

You know folks, I've been working with Pure Talk for six years now. Boy, time flies. I wanted to work with a wireless company that shares my values. Pure Talk is a veteran led company, so helping veterans is their north star. They've donated over half a million dollars to America's Warrior Partnership, a fantastic organization that is on the front lines of helping to prevent veteran suicide and PureTalks creating American jobs with a US only workforce. Sure to be a lot cheaper to send jobs overseas like other companies do, but they're committed to delivering the best experience possible for their customers here in the United States. And yes, I love Pure Talk service. They give you the same towers, Same network, same 5G coverage as one of the big guys, but for a fraction of the price. And I choose to do business with a company that shares my values. Your value? Helping support veterans every single day and creating American jobs. How about you go to PureTalk.com Lavin to switch to PureTalk? That's PureTalk.com L E V I N to switch to my wireless company, America's wireless company, Pure Talk. Another one of the great world leaders will be Benjamin Netanyahu, which is why they hate him so like they hated Churchill so like they hate Trump. So if he was a nebbish, if he was a quisling, of course they wouldn't care. Be all fine by them, them being Europe, them being the media, them being the left here and in Israel, and of course the neo fascists in our country. And here he is on newsmax yesterday. Cut seven, Mr. Producer. Go.
Producer/Announcer
I've argued, you know, for quite some time for my European colleagues, you know, who have shown remarkable weakness, most of the, them, not all, but most of them, remarkable weakness in the face of a regime that says America is the great Satan, Israel is the small Satan, right? And Europe is sort of the middle sized Satan in between. A civilization that has to be crushed too. I said they're developing missiles that will cover Europe. Well now with firing that long range missile into Diego Garcia, they've got practically all of Europe under their fire. And the question is, will the west wake up? And because it's not obvious, Churchill called it the slumber of democracies. He said democracies go to sleep and they can only wake up with a jarring gong of danger. It sort of wakes them up. Well, it may not wake them up because Iran has been pursuing nuclear weapons and the means to deliver them to Washington, to New York, to Los Angeles and everything in between and to London, Paris and Berlin and nobody woke up. And I've tried to say that to him. I hope they're waking up now. But I'll tell you one man who woke up, he didn't need waking up. It's Donald Trump. He said 40 years ago, he said Iran is the great danger. When they took over hostages in the American Embassy, he said this regime has to be, you know, has to be confronted. He's talked to me about the need to prevent Iran from having nuclear weapons. He was very clear on that. He walked out of the disastrous Iran deal that paved Iran's way with gold towards a nuclear arsenal. If that deal had been consummated and it hadn't walked out, they'd already have nuclear weapons with international approval.
Mark Levin
And then there's this in the Jerusalem Post, just to show you that the left in Israel is every bit as tawdry and immoral and deceitful as the left in the United States. Headline, Jerusalem Post. Netanyahu says Islamic Regime weaker than ever. As Lapid slams the PM for Inability to win the Iran war. Lapid is a guy who was prime minister for about 14 minutes. Then he handed it over to a guy named Bennett, who was prime minister about 14 minutes. Bennett is a chameleon. He pretends to be to the right of Netanyahu, except when he's to the left of center. When he ran some time ago, he said he would never join in with the Arab parties because the two Arab parties actually do not support the existence of the state of Israel. And yet in order to be prime minister, literally for a year, he teamed up with Lapid, a leftist, and he teamed up with the Arab parties. And he's at it again. He's at it again. He's just completely distrustful. But let's look at this article. Israel is severely weak in the Iranian regime, they write at the Jerusalem Post. Prime Minister Netanyahu said in prerecorded public address Tuesday night, we're heavily crippling the regime that has called for the death to Israel and death to America for the past decade. Noting that the regime has tried to take control of the region for years, Netanyahu outlined 10 significant hits Israel has dealt Iran since the start of the operation. Roaring lion, they call it, because the lion has such a big symbolic role in Judaism, including decimating Hamas and Hezbollah, fighting west bank terror, and assassinating many of the regime's leadership. Is there any question about that? No. Alongside this, Netanyahu highlighted 10 achievements the war against Iran has brought. The first was the Ayatollah regime is weaker than ever, Israel stronger than ever. And ahead of the war, Israel fought Iran alone. Now the US and Israel are fighting side by side against Iran. Israel has also managed, he says, distance the Iranian nuclear threat. Netanyahu went on, adding that we broke the strength of Iran's proxies that threaten us. You know, Hezbollah, Hamas, and so forth. He addressed Israel's military successes and so forth. I won't read them all. But then we have Lapid. Yair Lapid, the opposition leader, one of many. He responded to Netanyahu's address with his own scathing message posted on X Twitter, slamming the prime minister for his inability to win the war. The same day, Israel is mourning the death of five IDF soldiers killed in Lebanon, a night where Hezbollahs launched nonstop barrages towards northern Israel. Netanyahu gave his 100th address, claiming that he has managed to change the Middle East. One word was missing in the address. Almost. Now, that's pretty low when you consider everything that's been done since October 7, 2023. Really, in two and a half years, the entire nature of the threat to Israel has changed completely. Completely. Lapid. Lapid explained that while the IDF and the Israeli public have shown excellence, strength, resilience to the war, the one person who time and again cannot fulfill his duties is Netanyahu himself. You believe that, Mr. Producer? And he goes on because they're desperate, just like our Democrats. They try to undermine the President in the middle of a war. They lie about what the law is, they lie about what the word imminent means. They lie about their juxtaposition. When a Democrat's in office, they act one way and when Republicans in office, they act another. And on and on and on. They do the same damn thing. Do these Democrats, excuse me, do these leftists in Israel. Same damn thing. Terrible. How is it Chris Van Hollen was on CNN yesterday? He's always on CNN or something. Ro Kahana, another low life. He was on TV and so forth. But we had Jamie Dimon, he's the Chase CEO. Chase being one of the biggest banks, if not the biggest. I don't happen to know, he was on Fox and Friends today and he said something very interesting. Cut 12 go.
Chip Roy
Some markets are unpredictable and it's hard to, for me to tell you exactly what, but I think they're just looking at, is there a chance something can go wrong now? We should all hope nothing goes wrong. We should all hope that these bad people are, you know, that we win this thing and clean up the straits and that Iran is no longer a threat to everybody and, but they're, you know, the markets will be concerned until it's over. But I think it's very important, it's much more important that this be successfully completed than what the market does.
Mark Levin
And that sounds like with the UAE and Saudi Arabia. Stop, stop, stop that. That was passed over way too fast. It's much more important that this end the right way than whether the markets are upset or not, because that'll change. Markets are always upset. It's a very, very important point that he's making. This thing needs to be ended the right way. And that doesn't mean, you know, Sprint or Speed. It doesn't mean marathon forever. No, it needs to be ended the right way or you will win the military war and lose the peace, as they say. That is a big issue. We'll be right back. You know folks, I've been working with Pure Talk for six years now. Boy, time flies. I wanted to work with a wireless company that shares my values.

Senator John Fetterman bashes the media says press is helping Iran with selective coverage of Operation Epic Fury. I can already announce that this Saturday we're going to have General John King and Senator John Fetterman he for the first time. So we very much look forward to that on Saturday. And we have a great show planned for you Saturday and Sunday, of course. Let's see if we got our final guest set up here. I think we do. Give me A second, America. Mr. Producer, can you hum a song? Do you know how to hum? Anyway, we have. Oh, Sunday will be Steve Hilton, who will be fantastic, really sharp. And Gene Hamilton, the president of afl. Gene Hamilton is the president, America. First Legal, full disclosure, my wife is the general counsel there. They're very brilliant over there. They're very brilliant at Landmark Legal too. All of our buddies over there, we have wonderful legal groups. They're in the fight. Here's Fetterman. Today, Senator Fetterman accused US Media of engaging in selective coverage that has downplayed the successes of Operation Epic Fury and instead benefited Iran during the first 30 days of the war. He said, I read the entire political spectrum on Epic Fury. Iran now loves and learns from the American media. The media's selective coverage rewards and reinforces Iran's Strategy. Media amplifies the 1% chaos Iran creates while ignoring the 99% of Iran's beatdown. I'll tell you, this guy is good. I'm glad he's recovered from his illness. You know, Much of that coverage has been focused on the straighter Hormuz, a critical checkpoint through which around one fifth of the world's Seaborne oil passes in which Tehran closed down after the US and Israel started military strikes against the regime on February 28. The truth is it has closed down the straits from time to time anyway. If it had a nuclear missile or nuclear weapon, it would be able to do it all the time, and there wouldn't be a damn thing we could do about it. Just like North Korea now. There's almost nothing we can do about North Korea now that they have nukes. And they all have figured this out. And Prince Yabba Daba, the guy that runs Saudi Arabia, he said, yeah, and if Iran had a nuke, we're going to get a nuke, too. So the President is a man of peace. This is a peace mission. Hello. No, it's that peace mission. Yes. Fetterman noted that coverage depicts the global economy spiraling by citing the cost of a gallon of gasoline domestically in the US but that omits the perspective that it was much higher just a few years ago. Yes, it was much higher under Biden. Hello. Hello. Goodbye. The price for gas peaked under Biden at $5 a gallon the same month several years ago. It's around $4 a gallon, depending if you use regular or plus or premium or whatever you use. But it is a constant drumbeat now, which it wasn't, of course, under Biden, because, you see, climate change is so important to deal with, whereas Iran, that's just a fake. Wars. Cory Booker puts it a blunder. No, the election of Cory Booker was a blunder. He's a blunder. He's a blunderbuss, too, by the way. Never shuts the hell up. Remember that phony. That phony filibuster he did? It wasn't even a filibuster. But he's standing there. He's gone on and on and on. He's a hero.
Unidentified Conservative Commentator
Why?
Mark Levin
Because he doesn't shut up. He's a gas bag. That doesn't make him a hero. No, none of these guys are heroes. They're all Lilliputians. All right, let's move along, shall we? You know, the Senate still hasn't funded the full Department of Homeland Security. That's right. They're on vacation. They're taking a vacation from their vacation. And I blame the Democrats, you know. Well, of course you would, Mark. No, of course I do. Because they're wrong 98% of the time. When the Republicans are wrong, I'm the first to criticize them. I was the first to talk about the establishment versus the Tea Party, the establishment versus convention of states, the Establishment versus Constitutional conservatives. Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah, the first. But, you know, before I get to that, I missed something very important. So let me reverse course briefly. Have you ever heard America, of Abdul Al Said? Abdul Al Said. Abdul El Said. Now Michigan, they know who he is. Rest of the country, no. He's running for the Democratic nomination to the United States Senate. In Michigan. In Michigan. Now, an Islamist was elected lieutenant governor in Virginia, but nobody noticed but me. So we have an Islamist backing up Spam Burger, who is a diabolical, evil liar, a psychopath. Just lie to the electorate. Nothing worse than to violate your public trust. I don't mean a little. I mean a lot and repeatedly. So here we have Abdul Al Said, who wants to be the nominee for the Democrat Party to the Senate. He wants to be a senator or he can vote on all things America. Huh? Wouldn't that be fantastic? He's an Islamist. Hello. He's an Islamist. I said to my wife 10 years ago, none of this was going. Where'd this all come from? The Democrats, just like the left. The left parties in Europe, they were tired of losing elections, so they figured they'd change the population. They didn't care what they brought in into their country. Here's Abdul El Said, Michigan Democrat, Senate candidate. He's on a phone call. He's on a phone call. And what he tells the person or people on the phone call, don't talk about Khomeini killing Khomeini because many of our friends in dear Bornistan are sad about it. So everything I've said about Dear Bornestan, even more everything the founder of memory memri.org wrote about in the Wall Street Journal a year or two ago. And I remember reading it, and people were outraged. Hey cared. Hey, what do you mean? Dear Born a Stan is the center of Islamism? Hey, you can't say that. And now everybody says it because they know it. That's why I call it Dear Bornistan. I think he called it Dearborn Stand too. What stands to reason. Let's take a listen, shall we? Cut 11. Go.
Abdul El Said (quoted)
I also want to remind you guys that there are a lot of people in Dearborn who are sad today.
Mark Levin
So, like, they're sad today because Khomeini was killed. You understand? There's a lot of people in Dearbornistan who are sad today because Khomeini was killed in our own country, America, where Ford Motor Company was headquartered. I don't know if they still are, but they were forever go ahead
Abdul El Said (quoted)
at all. Like, I. I don't Think it's worth even touching that? Like they're gonna try. This is what we practice. But like, isn't Asian Khomeini a bad guy? Isn't it great that he's dead? On my first amendment, 86 years old. He was going to be dead sometime soon anyway. Second, that doesn't justify the fact that he was a bad man. Does not justify our breaking of international law and unilateral action outside of.
Mark Levin
Slow down. What violation of international law is this moron talking about? I love the way these leftists throw this around. Well, you violated international law. You're not allowed to hit their oil fields. Of course you are. That didn't violate international law. It's a war where you're trying to defeat the enemy and make sure they don't have oil to use in their various, you know, their jets or their planes or their whatever. You're trying to defeat the enemy. Forget about their jets and planes. Yes, we wear mittens. And of course they can go brass knuckle on us, right? Is that about right? Do I have that about right? So here's this moron. Violation of international law. You know, they took out Khomeini. Meanwhile, Khomeini slaughtering tens of thousands. Does this guy say a word about. No. It may upset everybody in dear Bornistan. Now let's think about this.
Producer/Announcer
This.
Mark Levin
There's a lot of people. He said. Let me quote. I also want to remind you guys that there are a lot of people in Dearborn who are sad today. Sad that Khomeini was taken out. Khomeini just slaughtered tens of thousands of people on his say so, many of whom are Muslims. But there's many people in the United States of America in Dearborn, Michigan who are very sad about the. Not the slaughter, the butchering of the people in Iran. No, that Khomeini was taken out. A lot of people are. Don't bring it up. It could hurt me with my votes. You know, this is what we deal with. Talib and Omar. Bernie Sanders is another one. A complete low life, complete lowlife. All right. Do I owe you something, Rich? We'll be right back. You know folks, I've been working with Pure Talk for six years now. Boy, time flies. I wanted to work with a wireless company that shares my values. PureTalk is a veteran led company, so helping veterans is their North Star.

Folks, don't forget Liberty's Voice, our video podcast. Where are we now? It's way up there, isn't it, Mr. Producer? This is a hit. And the reason is because you want me to talk about history, American history. And I'm going to do a lot more of that, too, as well as other things. Of course you can check us out. You ought to check out today's show because everybody else is. You ought to go to YouTube where you can subscribe, meaning it's free. Absolutely free, I promise. Or Rumble, where you can follow. It's on the homepage right there. And again, it's free. You don't pay anything. I pay for everything because I'm trying to get the message out. I'm using every platform I can because I think the midterms are crucial. The 250th anniversary is crucial. And so much of what we need to do to keep the barbarians at the gate and not getting in the gate, that is the leftists, is going to require me working overtime. And everybody else, you know, spreading the word, you, there's no bigger army than you Levinites out there. People don't understand it. I understand it. You understand it. You, Mr. And Mrs. America. So the Liberty Voice program today is very hot. People are very much enjoying it. I think you will, too. Go to, you know, YouTube or Rumble. Rumble's been treating us really great, by the way. So I'd like you to check it out. Just check it out. I think you're gonna love it. Back to cut 11. I want to go back at the top here, Mr. Reader, Abdul El Said, who wants to be a United States senator so he can help destroy the nation from within. Go.
Abdul El Said (quoted)
I also want to remind you guys that there are a lot of people in Dearborn who are sad today. So, like, I just don't want to comment on Kumani at all. Like, I, I don't think it's worse even touching that. Like, they're gonna try and this is what we practice. But, like, isn't Asia Khomeini a bad guy? Isn't it great that he's dead on? My first amendment was 86 years old. Who's gonna be dead sometime soon anyway? Second, that doesn't justify the fact that he was a bad man. Does not justify our breaking of international law and unilateral action outside of, outside of wartime. This is a bigger question about the United States responsibility to international law. And we have been breaking.
Mark Levin
Look how they come up with this. They all practice it. They all say the same thing. But this guy's really in a league of his own, isn't he? He's horrid. He's repulsive. I'll be right back.

And now Durbin has a new scheme, a government takeover of your credit card. Right now, Americans, thousands of credit card options, all with equal strong security. But Senator 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.

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 nondescript building. We've once again made contact with our leader, Mark. Love him.
Mark Levin
Hello, everybody. The President they just announced will be giving a speech to the nation at 9pm Eastern. I don't have any idea what's in this, but I'm Jetta. As a matter of logic, tomorrow. What did I say tonight? Tomorrow night. And. I think you only give a speech like this if you're changing course. No, Mr. Producer, you. You would need to give a speech if you're just going to continue what you're doing. So that's my guess. And I. And I think that speech will announce some kind of a deal. That's what I think is gonna happen. I hope I'm wrong, so time will tell. Hi, honey. You're marching out of the room. Come here. She's been working very hard, not feeling a hundred percent. Always looking beautiful. Say hi to the country. Hello, America. Land of the free. For the most part. For the most part. All right, well, thank you very, very much. Okay. Anyway, so I don't think you give a speech like this unless you're going to make some kind of a declaration or change of course. Look, I don't know, but I think it's something like that. And it's on Pesach, Mr. Producer Passover. So some people won't be able to watch it. Some will. So we shall see. That's just my guess. I just want us to finish the job, I really do. We talk about the regime has changed and things like that. I mean, I understand the point, but the goal is to make certain. To make certain that 10 years from now, maybe when I'm gone, he's gone, some of us are gone. That our children don't have to deal with this. And also that the stray will be open, can function. But we'll see. I have a judge blocks Trump White House ballroom project for now. And I'm thinking, why is this judge, this Leon Richard Leone, involved? I knew who this guy was. I used to know him. He was kind of a rhino. He was a Republican staffer on Capitol Hill for the Judiciary Committee. My recollection, which isn't perfect on this, I think he was working on the joint committee involved in Iron Contra. That's my recollection. Federal judge in Washington, the one I just mentioned to you, Richard Leone, blocked for now, construction of a new White House ballroom, which President Trump has heavily touted. District Court Judge Richard Leone, and he was very young when he got the job, too. He was like 31 or 33 or something. Said construction of the planned 400 million dollar ballroom must stop because no law comes close to giving Trump legal authority to build such a structure at the White House without authorization by Congress. It's incredible to me, how did we ever get anything done with federal judges looking over the President's shoulder for everything? I mean, how did we get anything done? So we have to wait for authorization by Congress and we know that'll never come, ever. Well, that doesn't mean the President has the authority to do it. Why not? He can't find any law that Gives him the authority. Well, he can't find any law that doesn't give him the authority either, so stay the hell out of it. Leon said that the National Trust for his historic Preservation, usually filled with a bunch of left wing, you know, climate change kooks, which sued Trump in December to halt the project, was likely to prevail in the case. So all the work that's been done comes to an end because you got this jackass judge who's doing this. It's going to have to be appealed. So it takes more time to get things done. The judge enjoined Trump administration officials and the Executive office of the President from taking any action in furtherance of the physical development of the proposed ballroom at the former site of the East Wing of the White House. It's already been fundamentally altered. I can't find any law that says he has authority to do this. Did he find any law that says he doesn't? It's all private funds, so don't hear me that. It's the power of the purse. It's all private funds. So there it is, a half cock federal judge who I remember as a staffer on Capitol Hill for the Republicans. I also remember him to be quite the rhino. I think he was appointed by Bush, one of the Bushes, at a very young age, sort of a get along, go along kind of guy. And there he is. And this is the first time he's done something like this with Trump. It's not the first time. I can't remember. There's another something he did, but I remember raising his name back then as well, so. So there's that. American journalist Shelly Kittleson, reportedly kidnapped by Iran backed group in Baghdad. Now, there's a conflict on this. My understanding is she had an American passport, but she's not American per se. But the New York Post is never wrong. Never, never. An American journalist was reportedly kidnapped by Iran backed militant group Khatib Hezbollah in the Iraqi capital of Baghdad with terrifying surveillance footage showing armed men dragging her into the back of a car. Because we know the Islamists always treat women well, especially young girls. And that's why all the women in the podcast world have been speaking out against them and talking about this. No, none of them do. Well, a few, but almost none. Most of the ones you know never talk about. This stuff gets into the way of their Jew talk. Tuesday abduction of Shelley Kittleson, 49. She is from Wisconsin. It says was confirmed. We are deeply alarmed by the kidnapping of Almontar contributor Kelly Kittleson in Iraq. We call for a safe and immediate release. Oh, I'm sure that's coming anytime. Sure. They've already brutalized her. News reports say she was snatched near the Baghdad Hotel, a stone's throw from the heavily militarized Green Zone, and state that two vehicles were involved in her kidnapping. While no one has claimed responsibility for the abduction, a former Pentagon official believes Kittleson, who spent years reporting from war zones in Afghanistan, Iraq and Syria, may have been taken hostage by the Iraqi Shiite paramilitary group. I can confirm that my friend Shelly Kittleson was abducted and may have been taken hostage in Baghdad. Okay. Authorities intercepted a vehicle believed to belong to Kittleson. Abductors that flipped over as they tried to flee. They arrested one suspected kidnapper. Well, that's good. However, the freelance journalist was not in the vehicle and her current whereabouts is unknown. The second vehicle, which she was traveling in was last seen heading south out of Baghdad. Efforts are ongoing to track her down. Others involved and free the abductua. Free her. Trump administration sources have confirmed that they were aware of the threat against Kittleson and had advised her against traveling to Iraq. And the State Department is working with Iraqi authorities to try and secure her release. But, you know, no further details have been released. It's just sad. The likelihood of her being freed is low. And unharmed is very, very low. And she went into these war zones, but still people will say, well, she knew was. No, she didn't. She came into a war zone she was trying to report. And unfortunately, that took place. I'll be right back.

As Operation Epic Fury intensifies, the world braces for what's to come next. And people of faith pray for freedom and for God's people in the Holy Land to be protected. And in the Holy Land. Red alert. Sirens fill the air. Sirens that give you only 15 seconds to reach the nearest bomb shelter. The situation is serious. The threat is real. And in times like this, freedom and faith aren't just abstract ideas. They are what we depend upon. And the International Fellowship of Christians and Jews is on the ground preparing large scale distributions of life saving food, first aid, emergency essentials for security personnel, while helping ensure hospitals and emergency rooms and shelters are stocked with critical medical supplies. This aid is focused on Israel's most vulnerable. The sick, the elderly, children, families in great need. But the International Fellowship of Christians and Jews need your most generous gift today to make this work possible. So please rush your gift, which is tax deductible, by calling right away. 888-585. IFCJ that's 888-585-IFCJ. Or online at levin for the fellowship.org. that's L E V I N for the fellowship.org. Well, we're here with our friend Chip Roy. He's running for attorney General at Texas. He's in a runoff. Chip, how are you? And how's the. How's the race going?
Chip Roy
I'm doing great, Mark. Great to be on with you. And, you know, we're doing great. We're crisscrossing the state of Texas. I was in Amarillo yesterday, Austin today, Houston tomorrow. And going around, just visit with everybody. You know, look, I got a guy who. He spent $18 million of his inherited oil money, but he's never been in a courtroom, never practiced law.
Mark Levin
I've never heard of this guy before. Is that just me?
Chip Roy
Yeah, he's a state senator, local guy, and he's just trying to buy his way and buy his access to climb the ladder. He really wants to be governor, so he's spending a lot of money to try to get there. And so my deal is I got to go raise money so I can shoot back. And. And we're crisscrossing the state. The reaction has been great when I tell everybody, you know, the differences between the two of us. Most people know who I am, and they're pretty. They're pretty excited about the prospect, but it's close race because he's spending so much money, and. And so we got to go raise a lot of money.
Mark Levin
Now, you've been endorsed by, like, a lot of conservatives, haven't you?
Chip Roy
Yeah, Ted Cruz has endorsed me. A lot of the great conservative organizations, Gun Owners of America, Turning Point usa, a bunch of the grassroots organizations in Texas, a bunch of my good, you know, obviously a whole bunch of my Freedom Caucus colleagues, guys like Mark Meadows, the former chief of staff to the president. Just tons of people that have come out to support me. And we're, you know, we're making sure that people understand what I've done for conservatism, you know, because now, you know, my name ID is pretty high. And they know that I've been a fighter, but they need to know that I've been working alongside the President to deliver, you know, the Save America Act. That's my bill. Back when we did HR2 and the border Security, that was my bill that we worked to draft and put together. That was the guts of it. That ended up being HR2. It was my legislation that was the first to say that the cartels should be Terrorist organizations, my organ. My legislation was the first to say that we should defund unruddled, which was, you know, the terrorists funding the attacks on Israel. My legislation was the first to defund who, the World Health Organization. So I've been a leader on so many different fronts, people are starting to figure that out. You know, I held hearings on Sharia law and the march of Islam through our country. I've held hearings on plyworld veto, the, you know, wrong headed Supreme Court opinion ruling that we have to give free education to illegal alien children. I've been leading on that issue. Birthright citizenship. I wrote an amicus brief and held hearings on every major issue that matters. I'm leading on, chaired and co founded the Sharia Free America Caucus. So when people know all that, they're overwhelmingly supportive. But you know how politics is. Somebody go spend $18 million with a bunch of mailers and TV ads they can try to turn into something you're not. They say I'm not MAGA enough. And yet I've got a voting record that's the number one voting record in Texas and the second highest in the House in alignment with President Trump's agenda.
Mark Levin
Well, given all this, where do people go if they want to help you financially?
Chip Roy
Well, chiproy.com chiproy.com, obviously you've been so great to me over the years and had a number of insurances, but yeah, chiproy.com that's the best way to go, give money. You know, we got to raise probably another couple million bucks to get ourselves in a good spot over the next couple weeks. We had a really, really good success. Successful first three weeks after the March 3 primary, raised a bunch of money. We're going to raise a bunch more, get our ads up on the air, make sure people know what the deal is, while by the way, I'm simultaneously fighting in Washington and Congress to try to get the Save America act done, get DHS funded. You know, all the things that we're trying to do, support the President, what's going on in Iran and everything else. So we're, we're, we're going to keep our foot on the gas and every dollar we can get is helpful.
Mark Levin
Where the hell do you get all this energy for God's sakes?
Chip Roy
Well, you know what, Mark? You know, I didn't wear the uniform and I didn't sit in a trench, but God gave me this ability at this time in history. And you know, when I got through cancer 15 years ago, I promised my kids and my wife I was going to leave it all in the field trying to fight for a secure and safe country. And everything's at stake. Everything's at stake, Mark. Islam and the Marxists, they're trying to take America away from us. They're trying to destroy the West. And God bless what this administration and President Trump is doing. If Republicans will get their heads out of there, you know what's, and get it this all done so we can keep a Republican House and support this President and have attorney generals like me and in states like Texas holding the line on the border and fighting the March of Islam and fighting the, you know, crazy corporatists that are trying to take over our lives and the, and the absurdity of the criminals being put on the streets by these leftist Marxists and the Ren Collective and all of these Soros funded crazies and then we can save the country. But that's, that's, that's what's at stake. So there's, there's no time not to have the energy at the end of the day.
Mark Levin
Now the Attorney General of Florida is a good guy. Do you know him?
Chip Roy
Yeah, James is a very good friend of mine. We've worked together a lot over the years and, and he's a good man, he's doing a good job and he's endorsed and supported me and, and, and I look forward to working with him.
Mark Levin
So tell us about your opponent. I honestly, I never heard of the guy. He was a state senator. Where is he from?
Chip Roy
State senator, kind of south, you know, east of Houston down towards Galveston, that neck of the woods. You know, old family money, inherited oil and gas money, you know, went through, was kind of, you know, messing around in college. Took five or six years to get through the University of Texas and I'm going to law school. He did go to law school, but then never practiced, never was a prosecutor, never worked in the AG's office, never worked at a law firm. He just worked at his family's oil and gas royalties, just managing royalties and giving out checks to politicians. He's literally been basically a professional donor. And then he used his money to buy state rep seat and look, you know, he was you know, in the quote House Freedom Caucus in the, in the, in the Texas legislature. But he's never really led on anything significant, never stuck his neck out to really lean into fights. And then he's running a bunch of ads saying that I'm, you know, not mag enough or that I'm, you know, bad. But he had the audacity to say that I was pro amnesty, even though I'm the leading conservative on border security. And you know why he did that, Mark? They took some out of context clip in a news story. And what I was doing was I was defending Tom Homan and our friends in the administration and talking about how we're prioritizing, removing people and focusing on some of these Somalis, focusing on people committing fraud, focusing on the dangerous criminals. And I said everybody who's here legally should be removed. But like any good prosecutor, which he wouldn't know a dang thing about, you have to use prosecutorial discretion and focus. Right? You use your time to go after the worst offenders. And that's all I was saying is like, wow, that means he's for amnesty for people who aren't criminals. Not true. If you're here illegally, you need to go. But we have a job to do and we need to do it the right way. And tomorrow and this administration are doing the right thing and prioritizing people. And I stand by that. He's just, you know, a fraud running fraudulent ads.
Mark Levin
You see, when people do this, they're no damn good. They're just no damn good. They're not gonna, they're not gonna be good in public office if they're elected to this higher position and so forth. So people should, should take this into consideration in Texas. You're a very close friend of mine and the family. I endorse you very, very strongly. I know you would be a fantastic Attorney General in Texas. You're exactly what they need. And you brought up something very important that I know by. There's a lot of people in Texas because they call here, and that is these Islamist segregated enclaves that are popping up all over the place, all over the country, but all over Texas. And they do not think enough's being done about this. But you're involved in fighting this at the federal level, and you will do people need to understand you're not in state government. And you will, when your Attorney general take this on as well. Right?
Chip Roy
100%. You know, one of the most important powers of the office of the Attorney General is to open up the books of these nonprofits and NGOs that have been abusing their positions and abusing the money they get, look at the books, find how they're tied to criminal activity, and then revoke their charters, shut them down, stop them from doing what they're doing when they're advancing the stuff that's tied to not just care, but the Muslim brotherhood and an agenda to undermine the Rule of law, undermine the declaration of the Constitution and to advance not just Sharia law, but they're trying to convert Texas to an Islamic state. They're open about it. They state it. It's a political ideology, and we got to end it. And I'll end it as attorney general
Mark Levin
if people want to help you again. Chip Roy. Where do they go?
Chip Roy
Chip Roy dot com. Please get out and donate.
Mark Levin
All right, it's official event search. Let's help him out. Chiproy.com. he's up against a blue blood. That's okay, except the blue blood's not a conservative. ChipRoy is. ChipRoy.com an official event surge. Let's help him out. We'll be right back. Let's go to Shane. Hickory, North Carolina, XM satellite. How are you, Shane? How are you, Mark? I'm all right. Thank you, buddy.
Chip Roy
Well, I appreciate you serving our country the way you have.
Mark Levin
Well, it's best I can do. Thank you, brother.
Chip Roy
I got. I got one statement and one question.
Mark Levin
Yeah.
Chip Roy
I think the reason I hate Trump so bad, when he has these rallies and they chant I love Trump, they couldn't pay people to say they love him like they do him.
Mark Levin
Mm, that's right. I agree. It's a good man.
Chip Roy
And are there any way we could. These tr. These judges doing what they did today. I mean, they don't care if we're giving $9 billion to Somalia and the people. And he ain't even taking money for trying to help the White House. And they. This.
Mark Levin
This. Well, it's private money. And he's trying to expand the ballroom because they have these tents, and when it rains, it's difficult. You have every president's. Not every, but a lot of presidents have added to the White House or made changes to the White House. This judge really could have very easily dismissed the case. But then he pretends that there's no law that says he can do this. There's no law that says he can breathe either, but he breathes. It's not a matter of proving a negative. It's a matter of. Is there a law that prohibits this? It's private money. And this group of lefties, you know, this preservation fund, they bring a lawsuit, and the guy sides with them and not the president. It's just ridiculous. Every damn thing he does, they're looking over his shoulder and they're doing this sort of thing. It's really outrageous, I think. All right, my friend. Thank you, North Carolina. We appreciate it. Earlier, I so rudely interrupted our clip of Speaker Mike Johnson on Fox and friends on the Senate DHS bill. Because the Democrats in the Senate, you know, they want to defund the cops, whether the cops be local, state or federal. And in this case ice. And ICE is a crucially important organization. They manage customs. That's the C part. And I immigration like deportations. And so the Democrats are saying no more customs, no more deportations. But then they lie. They said, well, of course we'll support that if only you make it impossible for them to do their jobs and reveal their faces. Did you see that video? I posted it. Now, I don't recollect where it was, but I did and I posted it. Well, there's one ICE agent, he's surrounded by these people who beat him up. Mr. Producer, you see that? It was Honolulu. I mean it's open scene. Did you see in LA, I think it was Mr. Producer over the weekend where people were throwing bricks and cement, you know, hardened cement, pieces of cement and so forth at ice. Did you see that? The no Kings rally? What happened to no queens? We don't want any queens. Is that offensive? Mr. Producer, we have a no Queens rally. Will people get confused? But anyway, and by the way, that was all funded by these billionaires, as we discussed last night. Soros, Buffett, that piece of crap in China, made billions here, went to China. Now he spends money on Code Pink and other radical left wing Marxist organizations. All they want to do is overthrow our country. They make billions and they want over. And then you have this jackass burning the billionaires notice. He doesn't attack the billionaires funding the no Kings rally. He didn't attack any of them because they fund his favorite groups and causes Communism. Communism. Anyway, here's Speaker Mike Johnson this morning on this senate bill, cut 13. Go.
Speaker Mike Johnson
Well, they sent us the bill in the dead of night. It was about a 2:30am vote. And it came to us right before everyone was scheduled to go home. We passed the bill, the full funding bill, a CR for eight weeks, clean, nonpartisan, no tricks on that at all. Just to keep the whole Department of Homeland Security funded for eight weeks so the parties can work out their differences. We thought that would be passed by unanimous consent on Monday and it didn't happen in the Senate. And so we've got a dilemma. The outrage and the reason we were so upset, Lawrence, is because they sent us a bill that literally put the number zero in the bill for the funding of border security and customs and immigration enforcement. We can't do that. That was the biggest issue in the 2024 election. And it's outrageous to us. Just in those two agencies, CBP and ICE, you're talking about 98,000 hard working Americans self sacrificing people who have to pay their mortgages and put food on the table. They wanted to zero them out. We cannot be a part of that. So we're calling on everybody. Look, the House members are in their districts working right now. We can bring them back on a moment's notice for a vote. The Senate has to do their job and help us on this heavy lift. We have to get the government funded. And they're playing games with real people's lives.
Mark Levin
And Thune threw that bill at the House in the middle of the night. Thune has a real problem. The truth is he's got that filibuster. And you got to decide where you come down on that. Because they can get a majority vote to fund. I don't know why they don't use reconciliation. That's another fancy word where the House and the Senate get together and they've already agreed over the course of many decades. Robert Byrd, one of the masters of this, also one of the masters of the Klan, but that's a whole nother story. But anyway, when it comes to budget reconciliation, you don't need a filibuster vote. So why don't they just treat this as a budget reconciliation issue and just get it done? Do that. Well, that's not fair. Who cares? The Democrats are no damn good. See, I'm saying, Mr. Producer, treat it as a reconciliation issue and ram it through. That's what they would do. President did the executive order. I'm glad he did it. Better not get in front of this judge Richard Leone, or Dickens, we used to call him Dick Leon, because I don't see any law that says you can do that. That's kind of the reverse, isn't it? You don't see any law that says he can do it, therefore he can't do it. He's the executive branch. If you don't see any law that Congress passed that says he can't do it, and it's in this case the White House and expanding the ballroom, then he can do it. There's no prohibition. There's not even a constitutional issue. Number one, there's not a statutory issue because you just said, I don't see any law that says he can do this. There's all kinds of things he does where you don't see a law that says he can do it. That's not. My God. This Guy's been on the bench forever. That's pretty sad. In fact, it's very sad. It's ridiculous. Ron DeSantis signs a new law banning judges from releasing serious criminals into the community while they await sentencing. I think DeSantis is absolutely fabulous, and he's definitely worth looking at down the road. I'm not kidding. I know he doesn't get all the hype and attention of some of these others because he's a governor, but he's a governor. That's the point. Like Reagan was a governor, like Trump was an executive. They've managed things. They've literally managed things. And in the case of DeSantis, you know what the people of Florida say? A lot of us say we can sleep at night, we don't have to worry about him. Like in Virginia, you got this spaz Burger or whatever her name is, and. And you got the hochul. Like there's something caught in your throat in New York. And then you got Newscom over there. In California, you worry of what's next. What's next? In Florida, it's like, what next great thing is DeSantis going to do? He's trying to get rid of the property tax for residential properties, homes, because they have so much money pouring in, so much tourism money, so much commercial money, and all these financial institutions. He says our tax base is good enough with that, and we don't have to tax property the way they are. But I'm the governor, and property taxes come from these county commissioners. So unless we pass an amendment to the Constitution in Florida, they're going to keep doing it. So guess what he does. They're getting an amendment out there. It's incredible. Here he is, a new law banning judges from releasing serious criminals into the community while they await sentencing. By the way, Congress can do the same thing. Congress created these judges all but the Supreme Court, and they can take jurisdiction away from them. Literally. Cut 17.
Florida Governor Ron DeSantis
Go Missy's laws. House Bill 445, what it does, and this shouldn't even be an issue. So you have somebody that's convicted of a crime, a serious crime, a lot of times the judge will remand them to custody, then they do a sentencing, and then the judge administers the sentence. But you don't release the convict just because you haven't done sentencing yet. Now, there's some court systems, they sentence you immediately after conviction. It's not how it's done. I know in the military, that's what you do. That's not necessarily how it's done in civil courts throughout the United States. So if you have somebody convicted of a serious crime, revoke their bail, send them to jail, knowing that they're going to get a sentence of imprisonment, probably very lengthy anyways. And I think most judges in Florida get that and have done it, but
Mark Levin
not all of them.
Florida Governor Ron DeSantis
So the situation with Missy, she's got this stepfather, big time scumbag. He was convicted, first of all, he was abusing Missy. She's like five years old, doing all that really, really bad what was going
Mark Levin
on in the home.
Florida Governor Ron DeSantis
But then he gets convicted of trying to meet a 15 year old for sex. And so he gets brought up on charges, he's out on bail, then he gets convicted. And so this judge. What's the judge's name? Judge Tiffany Baker up in Leon county, he was convicted of attempting against a minor. That's a felony. That's a serious offense. And the prosecutors went to her, they said, judge, this is, this is a dangerous individual. You need to revoke the bail. Please revoke the bail. And she refused to do that. She put him out on bail pending sentence. And what happened in between that decision and the time he was sentenced? He murdered Missy. Totally preventable. A miscarriage of justice, a dereliction of judicial duty. So what this bill does is it makes sure that these types of sexual offenses mean that a judge must remand the convicted defendant to custody.
Mark Levin
What a shocking story. And here's a governor that does something about it. Really. He's a fantastic governor. And when he's no longer governor of Florida, we're going to very much regret it. Now Donald is running. He's a very good man. Very good man. I'm going to get involved in that race soon enough, but I'm getting a lot of requests and I can't and it's too early. But we're gonna take a good look around the country. We'll be right back.
Producer/Announcer
Mud love in.
Mark Levin
Look at this. Poll taken. It's a real poll, too. It's the Harvard Daily Mail poll. According to a new Daily Mail poll, just 24% of Americans have a favorable view of Tucker Carlson. Only 21% believe he represents the future of the Republican Party, 39% believe he represents a dangerous future, while 40% are unsure. Got it. Some influencer, huh, Mr. Producer? Well, he's got a long way to go. Well, okay, let's see here. What do we have here? Oh, sorry, I thought there was something else. You know, Pelosi's still around. Mr. Producer knows because he pulled this together and she's still around, and she's still up to mischief and no Damn good. Cut 15. Go. But I wonder if you have concerns about the midterm elections themselves, be it the way that the administration is talking about potentially putting ice at the polls or the Supreme Court limiting mail in voting or even.
Chip Roy
Wait, wait, wait, wait.
Mark Levin
We're gonna put ice at the polls? Well, that'll. That'll offend. Whom? Illegal aliens? Ooh, ice at the polls. Ice. I thought they were handing out sodas there. Can I have ice with a soda? Anyway, go ahead, people. About where they can vote. Do you have any concerns about the midterms? Now, this is how phony questions are asked. So she's made a comment. ICE and the Supreme Court's ruling. And aren't you worried about all this intimidation is what she's saying. Go ahead.
Chip Roy
Concerns. But with this president.
Mark Levin
Shut up. Shut up. Your false teeth are falling out of your face, and your face is tightening as you speak. What a mess. She reminds me of somebody else. Podcaster. Mr. Producer. I won't mention her name. Maybe I will. Tomorrow. We salute our armed forces. Police officers, firefighters, emergency personnel. Yes, Our truckers are our folks. And everybody. We love everybody. Almost everybody. I'll see you tomorrow.

Podcast Network: Cumulus Podcast Network
In this episode, Mark Levin delivers a fiery analysis of America’s war effort against Iran (“Operation Epic Fury”), asserting that the Left and elements of the political and media establishment are undermining U.S. operations and risking future peace. Drawing heavily on history, polling, and interviews, Levin advocates for a stronger finish to the American mission, warns against premature withdrawal, and calls on conservative listeners to recognize and push back against efforts to “tie our hands” in Iran.
Mark Levin’s 3/31/26 episode provides an assertive defense of the ongoing U.S. war against Iran, repeatedly warning about the risks of political, media, and Leftist interference. Through historical analogy, criticism of “defeatist” rhetoric, and focus on the unique regional alliance arrayed against Iran, Levin makes the case for forceful, uncompromising action. Throughout, he connects contemporary foreign policy with domestic political battles, attacking perceived hypocrisy and double standards among media and political opponents. The message: victory is possible—if America resists the “crippling” influence of its internal adversaries and stays the course in Iran.
