Mark Levin
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 Lev. Hello America, Mark Levin Here, our number, 8773-8138-1187-7381-38111. Well, a lot of interesting things going on today. I see the Vice President had a three hour interview with Joe Rogan. Mr. Producer, of course my name always comes up. But that said, there seems to be something very strange going on out there, particularly with the woke Reich. There's some in Israel, they just, just can't stop going to war is what I heard. And not only that, these influencers that are being paid, these influence that are being paid to undermine the MOU and our efforts with Iran. Well which influencers would those be? How about we hear some names but let's put that aside for a moment, shall we? America, let's think this through for one minute. Who's bombing Iran today, Mr. Producer? The United States. Our country. Who's been bombing them all week? Our country since the so called ceasefire several months ago. Who's been bombing them since? We have. The Israelis have been sidelined. So it is rather weird, is it not to be talking about the Israelis or some of them just want war. Then we get these utopian ideas, these paradisiacal ideas if you will, that if the Israelis would only work with the Palestinian Authority, that would be Abbas, who's a terrorist, that would be the, the Authority that killed Taylor Force and other Americans and, and pays pensions to terrorists who kill anybody, including Americans, Israelis, it doesn't matter. If they would only learn to get along with these Palestinian Authority Palestinians so called, we'd have peace on earth, don't you know. And other Saudis have gotten involved in it, you know, 911 is coming, our 25th anniversary of that slaughter. And they said, look, we're not going to make any deals with Israel unless Netanyahu is out of there and Israel recognizes a Palestinian state other than that. And I thought to myself, who the hell do you think you are in bread? You don't even hold elections. You still haven't come clean on 9 11. Who asked you your stupid opinion anyway? As you spend billions and billions of dollars to influence our country. And that was the other thing I was thinking. How come these so called influencers and the woke right types and so forth never condemned Qatar which has spent at least $400 billion buying our industries, buying our indoor sporting teams, buying politicians and on and on and on, destroying and rotting the minds of our young people in colleges and universities and Now K through 12. Seriously, This Republican primary in 2028 is going to be a big deal. It's going to be a big deal and we're going to be very involved in this, very involved for the future of the country. Of course it's very important that we get this straight. And so there's a great diplomatic campaign by Arab countries, apparently by one or two of the envoys too, but I'm not clear on that, lobbying the President against Netanyahu, that if Netanyahu were out of the way, we'd have this utopia in the Middle East. This whole region could be completely changed. Now how many more times are we going to hear that crap? I guess they don't understand what jihadists are all about. Just look in New York City. Just look in New York City. Look at Mondami. Look at the people he's brought in. Look at the people he's gotten elected as Democrat nominees. Are these people where you can create a paradisiacal, a utopian environment where all people are welcome? Well, imagine that times a thousand in the Middle East. I just think people come into that part of the world, some of them are very wealthy, some of them have backgrounds absolutely unrelated to what is taking place there. And they have these grandiose ideas on how to change the region and what to do in the Middle east and so forth and so on. And they are wrong. The President likes to say that, but for him Israel would have been destroyed. First of all, he has been a great, great friend of Israel. Militarily. We have done more with Israel than any president in the past. But the idea that Israel would be destroyed is preposterous. I read somewhere that Israel has weapons of mass destruction. Does anybody think Israel would be blown off the face of the earth by the Iranians as opposed to the other way around. If it was necessary now, this could change. But isn't it interesting that Iran has hit many, many Arab countries since we have bombed them during the past several days, but they haven't fired a single missile at Israel. What's that all about? Now they may, don't get me wrong, but they've been warned. If they do, they're going to be pulverized and there's not going to be anything that we can do here to stop Israel from doing what it needs to do, nor should we. All this talk about they need Big Brother or they can't defend themselves is simply false. They are an ally, which means we have an alliance, which means we share military and intelligence information and they share with us. That is the way alliances are supposed to work. But I can assure you, unlike Saudi Arabia and Qatar that were Both involved in 9 11, Israel would never have done that to us. We don't have this massive counterterrorism infrastructure built into our country and into our law, by the way, because of Israel. We have it because of the Islamists in the Middle east, among other places, don't we? The answer is yes. Israel's being asked, you need to pull out of parts of Lebanon and why don't you let the Syrian leader, who's a new leader by the way, was the Al Qaeda leader in Syria for a while. Let him go into Lebanon and take care of Hezbollah because he'll do it much more cleanly. The Christians in Lebanon don't want Syria in Lebanon on top of Hezbollah, number one. Number two, the former Al Qaeda leader who now runs Syria is aligned with Erdogan. Israel is not going to want Erdogan to have influence in Lebanon on top of Hezbollah in Iran on its border. That would be suicidal. So it is not going to agree to that. Whether it is green lighted or not, it is not going to happen. No F35s for Turkey, no Syria in Lebanon. In my humble opinion, no. Abbas is a terrorist. The Palestinian authorities fill with terrorists. I don't see us creating a Disneyland there in Judea and Samaria among the parties, do you folks? No, I don't. We'll be right back. Gold entered 2026 after a historic year. 53 new all time highs. An average price up 44% year over year, then pushed past $5,500 an ounce in January. Nuts pulled back. And many in Wall street analysts are telling clients this is the window before gold pushes back towards New highs. Meanwhile, silver is on track for a sixth year of structural supply deficits with solar, EVs, electronic and industrial demand still pulling heavily on the market. And gold's pullback has been fueled by fading Fed rate hopes and massive debt. Not a clear break in gold's bigger 2026 story. Call monetary Gold right now.

We'll circle back to Iran and related matters a little bit, but I want to, I want to launch into this Democratic socialist of America agenda. Does anybody know why we have a United States Senate? They want to eliminate the Senate, of course. You have to amend the Constitution. You can't just eliminate the Senate. Does anybody know why we have a Senate? Does anybody know why we have the Electoral College? You see, these people either don't know why or they don't care. Because without those two institutions, among others, we would not have a country. Now why? Because the smaller states, that is the less populated states, would not have joined in the Union. And here we are in a war for our independence. And we needed all the colonists, we needed all the colonies, hence states to be joined together to be united to win the United States Senate, a bicameral Congress. The United States Senate was created in part to ensure that states had a say in the government. Of course, that was eliminated with the 17th amendment, but even beyond that was to ensure that states with smaller populations had a say in the government. Because if you just go by the popular vote, you have a parliamentary system, that is a House of Representatives. Two thirds of our states won't have any say, the people who live in these states, because they're not heavily populated. North Dakota, South Dakota, Wyoming, Montana, New Mexico, you can go down the list. Delaware, Rhode island, on and on Vermont. They each have two senators. They would have nothing, virtually nothing. And the genius of having a Senate was to do several things that the Marxist left does not like. Number one, it slows things down. It slows things down so things aren't quickly pushed through because of the popular view of the moment. So it slows things down. Number two, it ensures that every state has some representation in the national, that is the federal government, through Congress. Some states may not have a large population of human beings, but they may have a large population of cattle, and we need cattle. They may have a large population of chickens. They may have a large harvest of wheat and corn and other things and so forth and so on. That is, we need those states to be involved, even if they're not all cities and urban areas, because in cities and urban areas they can't feed themselves. So they looked at the geography, they looked at the various elements of commerce in America. And the idea of having a House of Representatives and a Senate was absolutely brilliant. Brilliant. And they didn't want one faction popular for a period of years, 2, 3, 5, 10 years, to be able to massively push an agenda through an agenda through that would lock it in forever and make it impossible to reverse course or change course. So we have a Senate, and it also. The Senate that is, is involved in appointments of the executive branch. It's involved in treaties with the executive branch. And also, if everything is run through a House of Representatives or a parliament, things become even more chaotic, don't they? We don't want a parliamentary system like they have in Europe. We see how they fail. Why else do we have a Senate? Think of your Declaration of Independence. Our rights don't come from Congress. Our rights don't come from government. Our rights don't come from state governments. Our rights don't come from local school boards. Our rights are God given. Everything is not determined by majority rule. Who has the votes? That's called mobocracy. That's what Aristotle called it, and he was correct. Mobocracy. Everything should not be decided by popular vote. Some things are sacrosanct, like your free will, like your liberty, like your rights. Regardless of how anybody votes. And I can go on, but why do we have an Electoral College? Very similar reason. If we had a national popular vote, which is what the radical left and the Democrats push, you basically have about 12 states that would control all 50 states, that is the other 38, the population centers, the cities, in particular the metropolitan areas. And the big states, that is with big populations, would control who's president and who's not through a popular vote. So they wanted to make sure again that smaller states had a say, not control, but had a say. So those two senators count as two electoral college votes. And the number of House members of the House that you have. So in the case of Delaware, they get three, two senators, one House member, three. And you have other states with three or four and five, something like that. So all of the big heavily populated states aren't the only states that have a say. When you add up the other 38 states, their populations equal the 12 states pretty much. But nobody's going to campaign in those states. They're all going to campaign in the heavy populated states. The real reason why they push for this, the elimination of the electoral college is they want these Democrat metropolitan areas and Democrat blue states to control the entire country. Get rid of the Senate, get rid of the electoral college and we can ramp through whatever we want through mob rule and more to keep the borders open. Because you interpret the Constitution wrongly in my view, as not counting citizens but counting people. So the borders are wide open. You want to get rid of ice, you don't want to deport anybody because those people, well, they're Democrats and waiting and certainly their children are through birthright citizenship. So it's a massive power play for a big centralized Marxist government. More when I return. For decades, Americans have been holding physical gold and retirement accounts as a hedge against inflation, against geopolitical turmoil, as a long term store of value. But what do you really own and how is it positioned today? If you own gold, silver or platinum, wouldn't you like to know its current market range?

Performance may vary. Consult your tax or financial professional Mark Levin, simply the smartest man on radio and you can call him 877-381-3811. Here we have a montage of these Democratic Socialists of America members on a zoom call yesterday. Hat tip, Fox News cut five, Mr. Producer, go. We could call it the head honcho of whatever. You know, like, it's like we might not have a president, but what we should have is an executive that's actually chosen democratically and is accountable to the representatives of the, of the people here. We say very clearly, like abolish ice. We have a feminism section that is trans liberatory and also socialist, feminist. I think it, it sounds so radical, like abolish the Senate, abolish the Supreme Court, like et cetera, et cetera. But it's really, it's not why do we have a Senate? First of all, who are these people? They sound like a bunch of flunkies. Flunk. Very stupid people to me. They sound like they're either in college or just got out of college. And really, I'd say what it'd be like to get rid of the President, just sort of have an executive that's truly chosen. We're dealing with imbeciles here. Imbeciles. Go ahead. People are going to see that and they'll be like, wait a second. Why do I have a. Like, what's so great about the Senate? What's so great about the Senate? Abolish the Senate, abolish the Supreme Court, et cetera, et cetera. They hate America. They're truly communists. Here's a question for you, America. How would we feel if Israel called us crazy and warmongers for bombing Iran? Mr. Producer, how would we feel if Israel said that our policies are making regional realignment impossible? Isn't this what we say or the leakers are saying about Israel? Israel isn't bombing anybody. I think we'd get tired of that, wouldn't we? What will we say if Israeli politicians were interfering in our election? What would we say? What would we say? Yes. Let me just put some of this up there about our upcoming midterm elections. Would we like that? I don't think we would. Would we? No, I don't think so. Mr. Producer, can you open your microphone, please? I want to ask you a question on the air. You. You made an effort to contact one of the co founders, as I understand it, or co chairman of the Democratic Socialists of America, is that correct? Correct. Can you give us the person's name? If you know how to pronounce it. Let me look in my emails. Let's look that up. I wanted to debate this person perhaps Friday. And then I need you to tell the country. How did you try to contact this person? So I found it.
- [23:40]
Todd Blanche
It's called.
- [23:41]
Mark Levin
It's Kara. C A R A, no less. You're talking into the microphone.
- [23:44]
Bruce Blakeman
Yeah.
- [23:45]
Mark Levin
Kara is the name. T A R A C A R A C A R A. Kara, do we have a last name? No. No. Okay, and what happened? And I just went through their website, the DSA's website. I also emailed their press at socialist@nyc media.s a USA. So you've tried a number of sites, you've tried emailing, you've tried texting it. So. And not a response by anybody?
- [24:12]
Producer/Interviewer
Nothing?
- [24:13]
Mark Levin
Mm. Nothing. This is what happens with Bernie Sanders. Just so you Know, this is what happens with aoc. It happens with all of them. All of them. You see, there's certain people we need to debate. There are certain people we must engage. And I want to debate and engage these people. I don't want to engage neo Nazis, Klansmen, that sort of thing. No, that. That I wouldn't waste my time, but I would like to engage these people. But apparently we're not going to be able to engage them at all, because they don't want to be engaged, at least not by me. Now, I said we would circle back, so now we will circle back. The president talking about hitting Iran even next week. Trey Yingst came into Washington to interview the president. Cut one, go. Do you anticipate that the strikes were seen this week against Iran, will expand. Are you considering hitting energy targets or other locations inside of Iran?
- [25:30]
Producer/Interviewer
I'll save the energy targets for last. But ultimately we'll hit energy targets. Yeah, but we're going to hit them very hard tonight. Going to hit them very hard tomorrow night. We're going to hit them very hard the night after. And then next week it gets really bad for them because next week comes the power plants, next week comes the bridges. We're going to knock out all their power plants, we're going to knock out all their bridges, unless they get to the table and negotiate.
- [26:00]
Mark Levin
Mm. What if Bibi Netanyahu said that? What would the reaction be in our country? The podcasters would wet themselves. Their fangs would show. But what about the isolationists in the administration and outside the administration? What would they say? Hmm? That Bibi's a warmonger? That he's a crazy. You know what? That he can't control himself. I'm just asking, what would we say if the prime minister or people in his party tried to interfere in our election, started to tell you what they thought about certain candidates and so forth? Would that be okay with you? I don't think it would. And so respect goes both ways, you see. So when the isolationist woke right types and their podcaster buddies go on about Israel likes war. Some of them want war. They don't know peace. Israel hasn't done a damn thing in two months. We have. And I'm glad we have, by the way. That's not my point. That's not my point. I don't think we'd like it at all under those circumstances. Here's the president again. Cut to go.
- [27:17]
Producer/Interviewer
We're looking at pickaxe because somebody said there's a little activity. You know, we have cameras Space Force. We have cameras that are. They can read the badge. They can read your name, probably Mohammed. They can read your name on a badge from. From space and every area of pickaxe. But the other three are covered. But specifically, they make any move, they make any move, we immediately go and do whatever we have to do. But they haven't done the other. They were so decimated.
- [27:45]
Mark Levin
Some weapons experts say that the United States doesn't have the ability to strike deep, deep enough with these bunker buster
- [27:52]
Producer/Interviewer
bombs at Pickaxe Mountain. They can go deep. We have good, good stuff. Nobody knows about Pickaxe, by the way. Nobody knows if they even are doing anything in pickaxe. It's just something that comes up. We have cameras on it. There's very little activity there. But if there's even just a small amount, we'll hit it and we'll hit it hard.
- [28:12]
Mark Levin
Mm, this is good. I'm glad the President is saying what he's saying. I think it's very, very important. Cut three, go. You came to the conclusion that you couldn't negotiate with the irgc.
- [28:27]
Bruce Blakeman
Does that mean that you might wipe
- [28:28]
Mark Levin
them out like you did isis?
- [28:30]
Producer/Interviewer
Yeah, it does. We will see what's happening. We received a call just as I was coming here. They want to meet. They always want to meet. But, you know, this should have been done by other presidents for many years, for 47 years, but really a lot longer than that. And it wasn't. And I never understood why, but now I do, because if you're not going to do it the way I'm doing it, you're never going to make a deal with them. They were very difficult. They're good negotiators. They were tapping Everybody along for 47 years. Then Obama came in and he just offered them, you know, a fortune of money. He paid them off, 1.7 billion in green cash and hundreds of. Of billions of dollars. And that really set everyone else back because they started making. Wanting to make nuclear weapons. And then we hit them a year ago, just about a year ago, with the B2 bombers, and that ended that. So we got a little bit lucky. Our timing was a little bit lucky.
- [29:31]
Mark Levin
This is the president at his best. Absolutely at his best. And I think it's very important what he's doing. I. I don't think he's reached the point where enough is enough, like some people say. But I think he's reached the point where it's okay, we've got to do more militarily, perhaps a lot more. I don't know to deal with these subhuman terrorists because that's what they are to deal with these subhuman terrorists. There's other things we can do. And I will say it again. We can arm the people of Iran and we should. One politician said today we're not going to send in 150,000 ground troops. Who said? Mr. Who has said that we should send in 150,000 ground troops? Nobody. No one. These are strawman arguments. It's ridiculous. The Iranian people haven't either. They just said, please arm us so we can rise up and overthrow this government. Well, there will be a lot of refugees. The Iranian people will fight for their liberation. A lot of refugees. Right now it is a big concentration camp. We have a resistance in this country to helping freedom fighters. And I don't know why. I literally don't know why. I don't know if our intelligence agencies can't do it anymore. I don't know if it's a lack of will from a director or a cabinet secretary or whomever. I don't know. But I'm one of the few people who actually lived through eight years of Reagan in the Reagan administration and I know it can be done. I saw it with my own two eyes. It's crucial. This is a great resource. The people of Iran are a resource. It's their country. I'll be right back. 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 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 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. 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 fail 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 guardyourcard.com paid for by the Electronic Payments Coalition. These so called influencers. Only Tom Massey, maybe one other, voted for the Tom Massie amendment to cut off all funding, military funding from Israel. Every Republican but him voted against It I guess these so called influencers don't have any influence on the GOP and the polls that have been done a MAGA make America great again even show stronger support for the state of Israel. Maga, the gop, reject the woke right, reject these podcasters, reject these frauds and politicians who are out of touch with the core of the Republican party and maga. They may think they're going to go far, they're not going to go far. They're going to have to answer for their alignments and their alliances and their statements. It's just true. We conservatives, we constitutional conservatives, that includes maga, that includes the gop. But well beyond that, millions and millions of you, we are red blooded Americans. We believe in the Judeo Christian value and belief system. We believe in the enlightenment and free will and individual liberty and we believe in our declaration and our constitution. We also believe in our allies, our allies, the Israelis, not Qatar, not Saudi Arabia. We believe in our, in our friends in Ukraine, not Putin, a Stalin wannabe. We believe in our friends in Taiwan, not communist China. We believe in our allies and our alliances. These small countries, relatively small certainly in comparison to what surrounds them. Ukraine, the underdog. Taiwan, the underdog. Israel, 9 million people, 7 million Jews surrounded by 300 million, over a quarter billion Arab Muslims, the underdog. And yet they fight back. The Ukrainians fight back. The Taiwanese, they'll fight back too. That's who we are and we believe in them. Isolationism begets war. Appeasement begets war. Pacifism begets war, always does. The reason is simple. Our enemies, whether they be Islamists or communists or fascists, they see weakness, they see opportunity. They root for the woke Reich in this country. They work for the isolationists in this country. They root for the Marxists and the Islamists in this country. Hell, they fund them too. That's what they do. They say that America is turning on Israel. You know, it all depends on what poll you look at, Mr. Producer. It all depends on. But if you believe in America, if you believe in her principles, if you believe in the Judeo Christian system, if you believe in our founding, then you believe in Israel, then you believe in Ukraine, then you believe in Taiwan and you understand the enemy, you understand evil. Those people in media, whether they be on cable tv, whether they be on radio, whether they be podcasters, who claim to be conservatives, who claim to be people of a faith, Judeo Christian faith, and yet who peddle this garbage about isolationism and then claim if you don't agree with them, you Must be a warmonger. And they claim if you don't agree with them, you must want boots on the ground. Ignoramuses. Absolute ignoramus. The enemy fears power. We are superpower for a reason.

Mark Levin
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. Hello, America. Mark Levin Here, our number. 8773-813811-87733-813, 811. You see that All Star game, Mr. Producer? I watched about two innings, and it was because they really don't mean anything. If you're a little kid, they mean a lot. You love to see the stars and so forth. But the American League won 4 to 0. I thought the National League usually wins. Am I wrong about that? You don't know. It's the American League that does. But to be shut out, that's really embarrassing. I think as long as I'm behind this microphone, I'm going to play for you what Islamic preachers, professors, scholars and their ilk have to say about you, our country and your faith. I feel it's a public service. I feel I have an obligation to do it, because you won't hear rabbis or priests or pastors talk like these imams talk. These imams sound like they're Nazis. Not all. I don't know them. All the ones who are. Who are speaking. Same with their professors, same with their scholars, same with their activists. In fact, they embrace that whole Third Reich thing, don't they? Let me ask you a question. Let me ask you a serious question. If these individuals, and we'll play them in a moment, think this way. Why are they here? Why are they here? Why aren't they removed? Part of the problem, of course, one of the obstacles is the Democrat party. You had 103 Democrats today who voted to completely defund the state of Israel, any kind of military support. Now, that day will come when Israel will be militarily independent, and I think we're going to rue the day when that happens. We will not have the kind of big brother, little brother relationship that the president the prime minister say we have today, that's not going to happen. They're building strong alliances today with Colombia. They have a new president in Colombia. They have strong alliances with Argentina. They have strong alliances with Denmark. They have strong alliances with Hungary and strong alliances with a number of other countries. India, 1.4 billion people. They have strong military alliances too, with Greece, with Cyprus. In Germany, the German government has asked them to help build an iron dome with Volkswagen. Qatar owns, I think, 17% of Volkswagen. And guess what Qatar did. They trumped it. They said no. And so now Germany's trying to figure out how to get around that. And so little Israel is not going to just sit still for the woke, right? And the Marxist Islamists in our country. And God forbid, if the Democrats take the House and the Senate, then eventually the presidency, they're not going to sit still for that. Why should they? And then they'll be sharing intelligence, technological advances, medical advances and so forth with whomever they wish. But we have a very superb relationship with that little country. And the president knows it. And most public officials, some don't know it, some just despise the administration. I was listening to this Joe Rogan in this interview today. It was really quite repulsive, in my humble opinion. But that said, politicians come and go, podcasters come and go, UFC announcers come and go. But Israel's been around the people of Israel for sure, nearly 4,000 years. They don't come and go. So there is that. Here's some of the Islamic preachers in the United States. In your country, in our country, right here, right here. Attacking Christians and Christians and more Christians attacking Jews and Judaism. Now, keep in mind, we're not bothering anybody. We're living our own lives. We're here. We've created the greatest country on the face of the earth. We Americans, people come into this country and they just start telling us what to do. They start attacking our founding and our founders. They start attacking our declaration and Constitution. They start attacking whether or not we're on our own land or somebody else's land. They demand that we heal to Islam. They demand that we surrender our own faiths and belief systems, come into our country like this. Is there another? Tell me, can you do this in an Arab country? Can you do this in a Muslim majority country? Of course not. And by the way, we wouldn't even think about it. Cut four, go. The Christians today are open idolaters.
- [43:51]
Todd Blanche
They insult Allah, saying that he has a son.
- [43:56]
Mark Levin
Very first problem I see in America, Christianity, do not take the Jews and Christians, as your close friends, this is
- [44:05]
Producer/Interviewer
a command from Allah.
- [44:06]
Bruce Blakeman
Let us take these lessons and teach it to our children.
- [44:09]
Mark Levin
Teach them to hate everything about Kufr. Drawing the boundaries. When dealing with the enemy, when dealing with the disbeliever, you're the disbeliever. They overtake the disbelievers. They fight in the path of Allah and they do not fear. The headlines question they raise is why do Muslims hate us?
- [44:36]
Todd Blanche
Why are Muslims full of hate against
- [44:41]
Mark Levin
the west or Christianity or Judaism or anything?
- [44:46]
Todd Blanche
The Quran tells us the truth.
- [44:48]
Bruce Blakeman
Tell Islam we do not resemble the non Muslims, Jews, Christians or anybody else. But you know what's the worst thing?
- [44:57]
Mark Levin
Is to resemble someone who's your enemy. The Crusaders, the wasp, the fail. Get it? Get it. This is going on every day. Hat tip memory memri.org I urge you again, bookmark it. Go there often. M e m r I.org these people are doing a huge public interest to our country in the west, all around the world. These are Islamic preachers in the United States of America openly trashing Christians and Jews, openly trashing America. And more than that, openly saying what they're going to do to the disbelievers, overtake the disbelievers. Do not, do not befriend the Jews and the Christians. Teach your children to hate them. And they do. And so when we have people in the Middle east saying, you know, we really need to Palestinians and the Palestinian Authority and the Israelis, they really need to get together and work things out. And Netanyahu is in the way, and Netanyahu is making this difficult. It's sick and stupid. Ignorant as hell. Ignorant as hell. As we sit here six, 7,000 miles away and some of these people talk like this. Look over your shoulder, look around your own country, see what's going on here. It's a disaster. And let me tell you a little secret. When the Democrats take power again, and they're going to take power at some point, maybe sooner than later, but certainly later, they're going to open the gates wide open again. They're going to open the borders wide open again. They're going to stop the courts with these leftists again, probably many Islamists. I could see it on the Supreme Court. And the country will change forever. The country will change forever. That is what will happen. And once these people are enshrined in this country and then due process rights kick in and all these other things kick in, it's impossible to remove them. And that's what the Democrats are counting on. And we're dealing with dsa. Look, Democratic Socialists of America. That's nothing more than the Communist Party usa. Communist Party USA would argue. No, no, no, they're not us because it's very parochial. But it's the same damn thing. It's Communist Party usa. That's what we're up against. It's the jihadi Islamists. That's what we're up against. They've joined forces. They have the same enemy. Jews, Christians, patriotic Americans. That's it. We're the enemy. Some of them are homegrown. Many of them are imported. They still control our colleges and universities despite all the lawsuits. They still do. They still do. And so many of our cultural centers. And the problem is, particularly in blue states, they have free reign. But also in red states like Texas, for reasons that are unfathomable. I just don't get it. I'll be right back.

Go to PureTalk.com Levin that's PureTalk.com L E V I N to make the switch to PureTalk right now. Again. PureTalk.com Lev LevinPureTalk.com Levin to start saving. It's a pleasure to have our friend Bruce Blakeman on the program. He's running for governor, Republican primary and hopefully the general election. The blakemanfornewyork.com welcome, sir. You know, it's very clear, I think, to most Americans, and I hope many New Yorkers, that the mayor of the city and the governor of New York don't know how to create jobs. They only know how to kill jobs. They don't know how to create wealth. They only know how to redistribute wealth. When they talk about affordability with the taxes and the user fees and the regulations and all. I mean, affordability really isn't their forte. So New York used to be a vibrant state. The city was vibrant and so forth. I assume this is one of the reasons you're running, is to turn all this around.
- [50:34]
Bruce Blakeman
Well, thank you, Mark. You know, this was once the great Empire state and now we've just been rated number 50 out of 50 states. Dead last in economic outlook. Our economic development is dismal. We're driving high net worth individuals out of our state. We're driving businesses out of our state. Kathy Hochul and Zoran Mandami might just put a sign up that says, how can we not help you do business in New York State? This is a death spiral that our economy is in. That's why young people are moving to Texas, Florida, North Carolina, South Carolina and Arizona. Because we don't create jobs and prosperity. We have anti American values in our leaders and we have someone who is the mayor of the largest city in our state who is a communist. And they do everything to frustrate business. When I become governor, we're going to cut taxes, cut electric rates, we are going to welcome business in, we are going to have safer neighborhoods and we are going to create a vibrant economy where people and businesses are going to want to locate here and not right now. 50 out of 50 states. And economic outlook, it's a disgrace.
- [51:55]
Mark Levin
You know, Bruce Blackman, the future AI, data centers and so forth. We have a home. I'm broadcasting from here now in Loudoun County, Virginia. It's got the most data centers of any location in the United States. It was also the birthplace of aol. It's hot, hot technology here, just creating jobs left and right. And then she puts a moratorium on A1 data centers. I mean, New York's a big state. You guys can handle data centers and so forth. So she's basically killing the future. No,
- [52:29]
Bruce Blakeman
absolutely. She's had four years to work out a plan to make data centers compatible with communities. I have talked to data center developers. They want to come into communities, they want to cut taxes for the people who live in those communities. They want to create jobs, they want to create economic development, they want to create prosperity. Figure it out. I could sit down in one day with business leaders and local government and we would come up with a plan to get the energy supply, the water supply, and to put them in places where people want them. But Kathy Hochul has no clue how to run a state. She has no clue how to run an economy. And again, that is why we are the most overtaxed, over regulated state. Our electric bills, Mark, are 70% higher than the national average. Again, we are in a death spiral. I want to pull us out of that death spiral. Work with government, work with local communities, create jobs and prosperity so that we can keep people in this state and not have the hundreds of thousands of people leave our state like they have under the last four years of Kathy Hochland.
- [53:47]
Mark Levin
And you know what, Bruce Blakeman, when they leave the state, they don't come back. They don't come back. They start to like these places. They're going to, they settle in, they have families in these places and so forth. They don't come back. So they really are destroying New York and it's really terrible. You take New York City, the financial center of the world, it was, and now capital is under attack by a guy that doesn't know anything about capitalism and really doesn't know much about communism. He's memorized a few slogans and so forth. My concern is this. He seems to be wanting to depopulate the city of Jews and Italians and Irish and Poles and Germans and so forth in order to create this, you know, ethnically cleansed of my words, not your city and in order to change the population, to change the voting base. Do you think he's going to succeed at this?
- [54:43]
Bruce Blakeman
Well no, because I'm going to stop him when I become governor. I'm not going to let him get away with that. Think about this. Think about the fact that as mayor of New York City the largest religious group in the city is the Catholic Church. He couldn't find an hour out of his schedule to go to the installation of a new archbishop of the Catholic Church in New York City. He cancelled the Puerto Rican Day breakfast that has been held by every mayor since they had a Puerto Rican Day parade. Why? The rumor is that he didn't want all those Christian pastors in Gracie Mansion because he didn't feel comfortable with them. This is a guy who left Little Italy. We have two Little Italy's in New York. One on Arthur Avenue in the Bronx, one in Lower Manhattan on Martin Mulberry Street. He left them off the map of important immigration sites in the city of New York. But he put in Little Palestine. I don't know anybody who knows where Little Palestine is. But I know most New Yorkers can relate to Little Italy. They know Little Italy, they've gone down there. This is a cultural and religious war against American values. It's against religious freedom. And I see it, I know it. And that's why I'm running for governor, because that's not what the people of our state are all about. The people of our state are from every race, religion, ethnic group, people of all abilities and lifestyles. And they want to share the American dream. And Cassie Hochul and Zohra Mandami are trying to kill that American dream. And I won't let that happen.
- [56:26]
Mark Levin
As governor, your election is very, very important. People want to help you. Where do they go?
- [56:34]
Bruce Blakeman
Go to Blakeman for New York.com I've got to raise tens of millions of dollars. And luckily we are, we are doing very well with our contributions, but we need to do a lot more because Kathy Hochul has had four years to prey on businesses and threaten them and do everything that she can to get contributions out of them. We have something known as the green energy scam Mark in New York where she collects billions of dollars from our electric payments, our electric bill payments, and invests in foreign corporations that put solar farms in places that are covered under snow four months out of the year where they put wind turbines in the middle of the ocean. And the fact of the matter is it produces very little energy. It's very expensive. And these people make political contributions to her. So that's what we're fighting against. So go to Blakeman4New York.com Volunteer, contribute. Do what you have to do. Get us out of this.

As you go from neighborhood to neighborhood, you look at your internal polls and so forth, what are you seeing?
- [59:24]
Bruce Blakeman
Well, first of all, were you in Crown Heights yesterday?
- [59:27]
Mark Levin
I was in Crown Heights over the weekend for my stepson's engagement. Why? Did you hear about that?
- [59:37]
Bruce Blakeman
I was in Crown Heights today campaigning and they told me you were there. So the, the internal polls are excellent. There was a recent poll put out by coefficient that accurately predicted the race four years ago to the T. That has me six points behind. Mark, if I'm six points behind against an incumbent Democrat in New York state, I'm going to win. I just have to get my message out. I'm working from 7:00am to 11:00 clock at night every single day. And we are building momentum. I have looked at polls in congressional districts that are plus nine Democrat districts where I'm winning 52 to 41 against Kathy Hochul. People are miserable in the state with her. They don't like her unholy alliance with Zilran Mondame, the commie. And they are coming over to our side every day. Another Democrat is coming up to me and saying, Mr. Blakeman, we are lifelong Democrats. We have never voted Republican in our life. We are going to vote straight Republican this year because our party has gone off the deep end. They are nuts. So it's going incredibly well. We're getting tremendous momentum and we will be the victor on election day on January 1st. Mark, I'd love you to come to my installation in Albany if you can bear the cold up there. I know you're a Florida resident and a Virginia resident, but we'd love to have you and love to do it. Everything's going very well and you were, you were incredibly well received in Crown Heights. I can tell you people were excited that you were there.
- [61:15]
Mark Levin
Well, it's an honor. It's an honor. Those are good people there and we'll be going back. But it was a purely a family function, so I didn't announce It. We just went there. Now, here's the thing. The people in New York now have an opportunity to fix what's taking place. So it's going to be left to the people of New York to decide what kind of a state they want to live in. In fact, what kind of a city in New York City they want to live in. And you're providing them with an opportunity. You're showing them a different path. You're showing them the American way. And they're either going to take this opportunity or they're going to vote for their own demise. And you feel pretty positive going door to door, I guess, Right?
- [62:00]
Bruce Blakeman
Every part of the state that I go to, they are miserable under Kathy Hochul. They want change. They want lower taxes, lower utility bills, economic development, job creation, American values. I mean, in our state, let me tell you how nuts it is. They passed a law that changed the name mom and dad to gestating and non gestating parent. Now the Ten Commandments tell us to honor thy father and mother. That is denigrating. Denigrating our fathers and mothers in New York State. So we got to get back to normalcy. We've got to get back to common sense. We've got to get back to American values. I will bring those values. I run a county now larger than eight states, with 110,000 more Democrats than Republicans. I haven't raised taxes a penny since I've been county executive. We have the safest county in America, according to U.S. news World Report. I know how to run a big organization. I can change New York back to what it once was, the great Empire State.
- [63:03]
Mark Levin
And it's gonna be about getting the vote out. Right? Gotta get the vote out, people. Gotta vote.
- [63:10]
Bruce Blakeman
Well, you know, we've got a lot of people in the state who become very apathetic. They've become cynical. And my job is to energize them, get them excited, get them out to vote. I tell my friend, my friends in upstate New York who are very strong on Second Amendment rights, they're going to come take your guns. You better get registered. You better vote. You better make sure that you vote for someone that will protect your Second Amendment rights. You better vote for someone who backs the blue, who backs our law enforcement professionals in this state. One who doesn't create a sanctuary state. On day one, as governor, I will sign an executive order that New York is no longer a sanctuary state. We are not going to spend billions of dollars. People who aren't New Yorkers, they're not Americans. No More free housing, free transportation, free food, and free cell phones. When I'm governor, that money belongs to the people of the state of New York.
- [64:08]
Mark Levin
Sounds like you have a whole affordability agenda there. That's very, very good. All right, Bruce, we wish you the best. We'll have you back, obviously. Blakeman for New York dot com. That's a critical race. America, New York. Anything you can do to help him, please do. Blakeman just spelled like it sounds. Blakeman for new york.com. god bless you, my friend.
- [64:29]
Bruce Blakeman
God bless you, and God bless America. Thank you, Mark.
- [64:32]
Mark Levin
Amen. You take care of yourself while Todd Blanche, I've gotten to know him a bit, is a good man, a very good man, very good lawyer. He represented Donald Trump as a lawyer in the private sector, did a hell of a job. He's been a great deputy attorney general, a great acting attorney general. And that's why the Democrats don't want him. You see, they had meritless Garland, who was not only a dunderhead, but did what he was told. The deputy attorney general really ran the place. And he bent over backwards for Joe Biden, to protect Joe Biden, even coming up with cockamamie privileges. Prevent the release of the audio, actually video, I suppose, of his testimony with the independent counsel before the election. He didn't want anyone to see it. And they were also involved in the horrendous attacks on Donald Trump. His liberty, his due process rights, our justice system. He's the one that hired Jack Smith, the worst of the rogue prosecutors. Just a disgusting disgrace. And also signed off on the SWAT team going into Mar a Lago and signed off on all this crazy stuff that was truly, truly an abomination. And now you have a man, Todd Blanche, who's worked his way up. I believe he went to Knight Law School. I could be wrong about that. But he graduated from a good school, near the top of his class. But he's a proven leader at the Department of Justice, a place I worked at many years ago. But the Democrats were never going to accept anyone that Donald Trump would pick because that's their nature. They're evil. They're evil. And here he is at his confirmation hearing today. Cut 15. Go.
- [66:24]
Todd Blanche
It's incredible since COVID the absolute thievery that's happened from the fisc by people in this country. And so we have focused tremendous amount of efforts, not only in the new division, but at every U.S. attorney's office, with every, every inspector general and their offices, the FBI, dhs, and hsi, to just root out this fraud. You have examples of rampant of individuals just stealing. So setting up entire centers for autism when there are no patients, when there is no center and taking millions of dollars of hard earned taxpayers money. And so we are very focused on that. We've already, like I said said earlier, billions and billions we've already collected in just the past couple of months. That effort is going to go forward for as long as I am in the position that I'm in now, no matter whether I'm confirmed or not. And it's extraordinarily important to every American that this doesn't happen because we're not talking about whether someone agrees or disagrees with a policy. It's just outright theft by individuals. And unfortunately, many state governments, if they didn't absolutely know it was happening and just encourage it, they certainly stood idly by while it was happening, which is also a problem.
- [67:41]
Mark Levin
You know, the Democrats don't care if hundreds and hundreds of billions of dollars are wasted, particularly when it's their constituents. Democrats like in Minnesota, parts of California and so forth and so on. It happens not exclusively, but mostly in these big metropolitan areas which they control. So they don't care to them we'll just tax some more, we'll deficit spend some more. What the hell, we'll print more money. Cut 16. Go. Is the department of justice that you are running, I'm sorry, Senator Chris Coons of Delaware, who's a complete bobblehead. Go ahead. Is the Department of Justice that you are running independent from the White House?
- [68:28]
Todd Blanche
The Department of Justice, like every single department in the executive, is part of the executive. I mean, Article 2 of the Constitution gives the power of the executive to President Trump. So we certainly operate with integrity. We certainly operate in the single mindset to serve the American people and do the right thing. But I am a member. If confirmed, I will be a member of the cabinet. I'm serving in the acting capacity that way now, just like the other cabinet members. And President Trump can fire me whenever he wants. So do you have a sense why
- [69:00]
Mark Levin
he fired your predecessor?
- [69:02]
Todd Blanche
I have no idea. President Trump, we all serve at the pleasure of President Trump and this administration. And President Trump.
- [69:09]
Mark Levin
Ever post on Truth Social directing your predecessor to get at it, to prosecute his perceived political enemies?
- [69:18]
Todd Blanche
I don't think those were his exact words, but those were not his exact words.
- [69:21]
Producer/Interviewer
No.
- [69:21]
Mark Levin
Clearly that was the intention. It is my impression, sir, that you are here rather than your predecessor because the president was unhappy with her failures. There's nothing he can say, nothing that Blanche can say that would Convince a Chris Coons the bobblehead? Nothing. He just says you're here because you know, Pam Bondi's not here and he feels you're going to do xyz.
- [69:44]
Todd Blanche
Okay?
- [69:45]
Mark Levin
So I would be surprised if he gets any Democrat votes. Maybe I'll get one. But the problem is going to be some of these Republicans, like John Cornyn has already raised questions. You know the Democrats, they march and they click their heels and they salute the Republicans, not so much. And you know, when you're in a battle like this, that's not a good thing. When you're battle like this, it's not a good thing. I'll be right back. You don't have to overpay for big wireless. Not when Pure Talk comes in with the same service for a tiny fraction of the cost.

How long do you intend to put up with that Cash Patel character? Are you good with his airplane jaunts?
- [71:51]
Bruce Blakeman
Are you confident he's not drinking on the job?
- [71:53]
Mark Levin
Are you sure none of his travel is a pretext for vacation activities like snorkeling, Olympics and visiting and girlfriends? Are you sure he knows what he's doing? Do you vouch for him? Are you willing to look at whether he lied to this committee?
- [72:06]
Todd Blanche
That's an extraordinarily obnoxious question, Senator. And I have full faith in Director Patel and the work that he's doing every day. Great. You get to own that.
- [72:18]
Mark Levin
You get down that cut 18. Go.
- [72:22]
Todd Blanche
What we have done and by We, I don't mean the Department of Justice alone. I mean state and local partners, the National Guard, all of our federal agencies, DHS in Memphis should be a poster child for a lot of cities in this country. You have a city that had skyrocketing crime and restaurants that were out of business, storefronts that didn't exist. They were boarded up. And we came together. And you're right, it was President Trump working with you, working with the governor, working with our partners, and said, we're going to fix this. We're going to. Just like we did in D.C. we're going to go into this city and we're going to arrest. I mean, amazingly, a very small percentage of Memphis's population was committing a very large percentage of the crimes. And so if you can focus on that small percentage, you're actually able to bring the crime stats down remarkably, which is exactly what we did. As far as what happens going forward, we keep on doing it. Memphis, there's restaurants opening in Memphis, there's stores opening in Memphis. There's. It's a new city compared to where it was one year ago. And that's something that we can't let up on. But again, I look at it as a poster child of what we should do in cities across this country.
- [73:39]
Mark Levin
Of course, that's not good enough for him or them. They don't really care. They know what they're going to do. Their base insists that they do these things, and so they'll do these things. All right, cut 19. Go. I intend to vote no on Todd Blanche's nomination. I do not think he is an appropriate attorney general, and I think he was nominated because he's in Trump's mold. So you see, folks, the fact that he was nominated, he's going to vote against him. Okay, go ahead. As someone whose job it is to serve the Constitution and fight for the American people, he sees the Attorney General and the Department of Justice as his own lawyer and his own legal department. And that's bad for our country and wrong under our Constitution and our political culture of the past. He didn't say anything. He's a moron. He wasn't planning on saying anything. We'll be right back. 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 return. And now 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 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. 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 fail policies before. His last big banking regulation backfired, leading higher cost and fewer benefits for American families. Tell Republican senators, stop Durbin's government takeover of your credit card before it's too late.

He's here.

Mark Levin
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 Levin. Hello, America. Mark Levin here. Our number, 8773-8138-1187-7381-3819. Our friend Joel Pollock. We're working at Breitbart now. He's the California Post, the sister publication of the New York Post. He posted there's literally nobody in Israel who wants war indefinitely. And he's responding to the vice president who says that there's some people who seem to want war indefinitely in Israel. He said most people I know there want the war to end in victory. A minority would be okay with it ending before that point. Nobody wants war for war's sake. Why say this nonsense? Just unfathomable. And I agree with him. I thought it was a terrible interview with Joe Rogan. Terrible from my perspective, really troubling. But I think he's right. That is Joe Pollack. I mean, the Israelis are fighting for their survival. They're fighting for their civility over there. He also suggested that that Epstein had ties to the CIA and or Mossad. He said he had no proof, but that was his feeling. Well, if you have no proof, I don't know. It's just so strange to me. And then this vote in the House. I'm looking, I can only see one Republican and that's Massie who voted with 103 Democrats. 215 Republicans voted no, 98 Democrats voted no. So the Democrats were split it and I'm just looking. Ten members of Congress voted present. Thirteen members didn't vote. So that took place. Also our friend Mark Thiessen points out when Vance said, you know, we don't want to send 150 troops into Iran. He says Vance is the master of tearing down strawmen. No one is proposing sending 150,000 troops to Iran. No one. No one. So here we are. This will all be sorted out in the lead up to 2028, one way or another. I can just tell you that. These so called influencers have no influence whatsoever other than Massey, the only Republican that a single additional Republican voted to cut off Israel. Israel is eventually going to cut off itself, but we're in the middle of a war. That country fought side by side. You know, you look at a lot of these NATO countries that are not good allies that are not supportive, and you look at a little country like Israel, tiny country, and they dragged us into the war. Netanyahu dragged Trump into the war. All of it's lies. Trump has said over and over again those are lies. So they fought side by side with us and now they're sidelined. They're not fighting side by side with us, they're giving us intel, they're giving us Ben Gurion. Airports being used, all their facilities are being used. They clear the skies for us and on and on and on. They do a lot of things, but they're not dropping bombs on Iran because the President decided that we're going to do that. And you'll notice there's no leaks to Axios or some newspaper or website or some fraud like Barack Ravin saying, well, the Israelis are very troubled by Donald Trump, that he's crazy and he's a warmonger. Notice they don't do that, nor should they. It would be outrageous. But why do we do it to them? They are as supportive as any ally has ever been and will ever be. There's no question about that. And Americans better hope Netanyahu wins, despite what these phony influencers and podcasters and the other buffoons have to say. Because if Israel is led by a very weak prime minister that will not serve America's interests at all, simply won't. Now the left in Israel is desperate to defeat Netanyahu. The media, which is very left wing, even worse than ours, desperate to defeat Netanyahu. The woke right types of the traitor Tucker Kitarlson types and his ilk, desperate for Netanyahu to be defeated. Of course the Marxists and the Islamists hate Netanyahu. They want him defeated. He has all the right enemies, doesn't he? And now we learn that there is a concerted lobbying campaign by the Arab dictators and monarchs with President Trump

which they are saying that we can't we can't move forward with a new day. You know, a sort of these phony utopian arguments as long as Netanyahu is there. Oh, and by the way, as long as the Palestinians don't have their own state, you know what I say to Saudi Arabia? Go to hell. Shove your camels up your butt. You don't get the dictate to our country, to Israel or anybody. You still haven't answered for 9, 11. Disgusting. Monarchy. It's what it is. I don't care how many palms they're putting money in. It doesn't matter to me. I don't care how many people they're paying off what they're investing in. And Qatar is even worse. Qatar is even worse. And during Joe Rogan's interview, I notice he doesn't bring up Qatar or Saudi Arabia. He doesn't talk about how much money they're pouring into our country. If he did, I didn't hear it. What about their influencers? Hmm. I didn't hear a word about any of that. What I hear a strawman. What I hear of phony arguments and so forth, very troubling in many respects. All right, Gavin Newsom. This guy really is, as Trump calls him, Newscomb. He's a scum. New skim. He's at the nailio conference yesterday, whatever the hell that is. And he's using the class warfare stuff. All these millionaires who live it up. His wife apparently is alleged to have not paid her taxes. Getting paid a ton from a nonprofit. Oh, yeah, yeah. They're always there for the working man and woman, for the poor, for the down and out, the working, quote, unquote, stiff. And they're not. They're not. They're power hungry. They're demagogues. They're sloganeers. That's all they are. That's what they are. He's destroyed that state wants the greatest state in the nation. The state where Ronald Reagan was governor, the state where everybody wanted to go to start a business because the business environment was incredible, the workforce was incredible, the lifestyle was incredible. Now they've turned it into a disaster. Only the Democrats can do that. San Francisco, which was considered the most beautiful city in America in so many respects, now is a dump. Only the Democrats can do that. Cut 10. Go.
- [83:58]
Producer/Interviewer
Well, look, 10% of people own two
- [84:00]
Mark Levin
thirds of wealth in this Nation. That same 10% of the people own 2/3 of the wealth in this nation. Obama used to say 5% own 25% of the wealth in this nation. I don't even know what that phrase means, they own the wealth. They own the wealth. What does that mean? They own the wealth in this nation. I've used Elon Musk as an example because he's the big example. He's a trillionaire, but he's not really a trillionaire. He owns companies, he owns factories. It's not like this is liquid assets where he's running around and having parties all the time and so forth and so on. He invents things, he creates things. And much of it is helpful to humankind. Starlinks, as an example, has been used during horrific natural disasters. It's been used to try and get behind the blackout in Iran, the blackout in other countries and so forth and so on. But who do we think makes these devices? They're made on assembly lines. They're made by human beings, they're made by, by individuals who make all the parts, who deliver the parts, who package the parts. There's a whole infrastructure, if you will, of businesses, small, large, medium sized, that are involved in this, this entire process. That's the nature of commerce. The Tesla, whether it's the battery or all the electronics or whether it's the rubber tires or whether it's the glass windows, people earn a living making these things, packaging these things, delivering these things, maintaining these things.
- [86:00]
Producer/Interviewer
So many people.
- [86:01]
Mark Levin
We can't even determine how many people are fed, how many families are positively affected, how many pensions, how much medical benefits. This is how it works. So when this moron of a governor who's destroyed his tax base, who's destroyed the quality of life in California, says, well, 10% of the people own, what did he say, 30% or a third of the wealth in this nation. They don't own a third of the wealth in this nation. Maybe they use a third of the wealth in the nation and create more wealth and jobs and opportunities and so forth and so on. What the hell's wrong with that? And the funny thing is, it doesn't even affect most of us. What Elon Musk does every day, what he creates every day, what he builds every day, we could benefit from it, depending on whether we're within that sort of infrastructure or not. But if you're not, doesn't affect you in any negative way. It's not as if. Wait a minute, they have a third of the wealth. What about me? I want some wealth too. Well, go get it. Go get it. Nobody's stopping you. He's not stopping you. He's not hoarding it. Go ahead. Well, look, 10% of people own 2/3 of wealth in this nation. That same 10% on 93% of the stock market. What does that mean? What is the stock market? What's the stock market? People Investing in what, Mr. Producer? Companies that sell stock to raise capital. To do what? America to hire people to produce more things, to invest in research and development, to expand their facilities. A stock market is crucial to any vibrant free society. So when he says whatever he says 95% is owned by 10% of the people. What he means is people investing in stocks. What is wrong with that? If you want to buy stock, go buy it. And many of you, by the way, who have IRAs and 401ks and kilo plans and so forth and so on, that's exactly what happens when people buy mutual funds. They buy various equities and so forth. They buy, you know, you and I, we don't know individual stocks very well. So we'll invest in a T. Rowe Price or something like that. And then you'll have a different family of funds you can invest in. You're investing in the stock market or the bond market or some market to make money. And when you do that, other people can expand their businesses or loan money for other people to start businesses. This is a good thing, it's not a bad thing. And I don't even know where he gets this detective from. It doesn't even make sense to me. The same 10% on 95% of the stock. How is that even possible when we all have our own private pension plan? Some of you have defined pension plan, whatever you have. How's that even possible? I don't trust this guy. He's a liar. But let's hear but notice he talks like a communist. He's trashing our economic system. Trashing it. He's talking about effectively the bourgeoisie versus the proletariat, the worker versus the manager. This is all they know. He can't say. And let me tell you how I'm going to create jobs. Let me tell you, I'm going to create more wealth for more people with our tax plan, with our deregulation plan. They can't do it because it's not in their DNA. It's not in their ideology. And yet that's the answer. Go ahead. 30 year old today is doing worse than his or her parents for the first time. No, they're not. No, they're not. You may not have your own home and so forth and so on, but you have access to food and clothing and technology and electronics that your parents never had. Access to when they were 30 years old. You've got more opportunities if you'll open the door than your parents ever had when they were 30 years old. This is again, a guy like Bernie Sanders, like Mondami, talking down the country, talking down our progress, talking down the greatest country on the face of the earth. And he thinks that's going to get him nominated to be president of the United States? God, I hope not. God, I hope not. And what's their answer? More government? More failed government? Failed government in New York City, failed government in California, failed government under Biden and so forth? Is that their answer? More taxes? I'll be right back. Mark Levin, Folks. Mark Levin here with a new episode of on the Front Lines, my original podcast series in partnership with the great International Fellowship of Christians and Jews. This week's episode, nations Under God in partnership with the International Fellowship of Christians and Jews, looks at America's 250th year legacy and its enduring friendship with the state of Israel. Built on shared values, faith and moral conviction and a time when history is being forgotten and alliances are tested, we examine why this relationship matters now more than ever. So find on the Front Lines on the Mark Levin show podcast feedback. Wherever you get your podcast, please subscribe now. Join us on the front lines of freedom, faith and fellowship. Kathy Hochul. You know, when you think about these Democrat governors, what a bunch of losers. You know, you got these one party states where they can't lose if they're nominated. They can't lose, but they are truly pathetic. They are horrible governors, just horrible. But they're Democrats in overwhelmingly Democrat states like New York and California. Hopefully our friend Bruce Blakeman will take her out because this is so pathetic. Cut 11, go. Are you concerned though about the luxury market? There's talk now a new report today in the paper that the luxury market, over $10 million apartments are sitting, not moving. People are concerned about the pieta terror tax. Do you, are you concerned about that? Is that on your radar at all? Well, when you think about what's behind the Pieter attacks, these are people who
- [92:59]
Bruce Blakeman
have, you know, we have Russian oligarchs,
- [93:01]
Mark Levin
we have Saudi princes, we have people. You have American citizens mostly. So stop with the strawmen. Very wealthy American citizens. Their wealth is none of your damn business. You didn't help them create it and you really don't have the right to take it and give it to somebody else. But they decide to invest in your city and invest in your state and your answer is what a wealth tax. No wonder nobody wants to come there. No wonder you got to be out of your mind. Go ahead. New Yorkers. And they're buying a second home, maybe
- [93:38]
Bruce Blakeman
a third, maybe a fourth home, a 5 million.
- [93:40]
Mark Levin
You should be celebrating that. They have to hire janitors and doormen, they have to hire handymen. People have to have to build these buildings, they have to refurbish these buildings. You should be celebrating it. This is why Florida is booming and New York is dying. Go ahead. Talk about someone who has a little apartment, right?
- [94:01]
Bruce Blakeman
Because they want to visit the grandkids, right? This is five million dollar apartment. And you're also getting police services, fire service.
- [94:08]
Mark Levin
By the way, a five million dollar apartment in New York. I know this is going to sound weird. Is not much. Okay. You have police services. You pay taxes for police services and fire services and so forth forth. You know who doesn't pay for it? Illegal aliens. You know who doesn't pay for any of that? The poor. I'm just being blunt. Go ahead.
- [94:30]
Bruce Blakeman
Your fair share to basically your fair share.
- [94:33]
Mark Levin
It's not a fair share, it's a ripoff. You go to another state, you're treated with respect, open arms. They want you there, they want your business there. They want you buying things there. And that's why you have a Florida versus a New York. And that's why you have a Tennessee versus a California. I'll be right back.

Voice of reason in a sea of lunacy. Mark levin, dial in now. 877-381-3811 and the board, we will take some calls in just a moment. Walter Santa Cruz, California on the Mark Levin app, one of the most left wing places on the face of the earth. How are you Walter?
- [95:50]
Bruce Blakeman
Well, I'm good Mark and thank you for taking my call. Thank your screener. And has the mayor in the middle of all this, one of the few Republicans that got voted in in 2016. Kudos to America. Kudos to you and kudos to Israel. So Kathy Hochul talked today and this is really near and dear to my heart along with many things but she talked about the wealth tax, the Saudi Arabia's and all that. What a bunch of bs. Let me give you an example. And I can live this example because I have that example. I have a property in Hilton Head. I'm in there maybe six weeks out of the year. Me and my wife, we spend an enormous amount of money when we get there. We spend money all through the year we get there. So this whole analogy, her statement, not mine, is going, oh well, they got to pay for services, they got to pay for all this. They got to pay, you know, this, you know, there's never been a fireman, there's never been a police officer in my house. There's never been anything other than me taking care of business.
- [96:57]
Mark Levin
And, and you're there six weeks a year, but you're paying 12 months a year for property taxes and everything.
- [97:05]
Bruce Blakeman
That's right. And I'm also, I'm also paying 60% more because I'm a non resident. And what's really key to that, when Covid and a lot of things and the recession and a few things happen. Do you know Hilton Head was really slow to recover. And one of the reasons why is people didn't want to buy because they wanted to buy a second home and they got go, I'm going to pay all these extra taxes because I don't live here. So they bought in North Carolina, they bought in Florida, they bought in other places. You know, she obviously did not look at the equation. The only equation she looked at is the democratic stupidity. And she opened her mouth. I call her Kathy Worthless. That's the best way to say it.
- [97:47]
Mark Levin
But you make a good point though. If you own a second home in another state, you're still paying the property taxes services. It's not like you're not. And you're not using most of the services. You're not using, you know, the sewage and other stuff and so forth. The house sits vacant. Or maybe you have somebody there, check it out, handyman or whatever. But you are a found source of funding many people that own second and third homes in these cities rather than chasing them off. It's absolute insanity. Walter, thank you. Really great call. I appreciate it, brother. Thank you so much. Appreciate that. Let's go to suse, Los Angeles, California, Sirius XM satellite. How are you?
- [98:35]
Bruce Blakeman
I'm great. All right, how are you? Thank you for taking my call. I listen to you often and I think you're just dead on every time.
- [98:44]
Mark Levin
Well, you're very sweet, thank you.
- [98:45]
Bruce Blakeman
So you're welcome. So I'm driving Home from work. And I see these people in these overhead passes with these signs that say Free Palestine. And you know, I'm well aware of what happened in Israel. And you know, it was just by
- [99:04]
Mark Levin
the way, Free Palestine simply means eliminate the Jews in Israel. That's what it means.
- [99:13]
Bruce Blakeman
But you know, it's like, why do they say Free Palestine? What in the world are they? I mean, who's keeping them prisoner? Free from what? What do they mean by that?
- [99:23]
Mark Levin
Well, they're claiming that the ancestral home of the Jews that goes back almost 4,000 years is their land. It's the only place on the first of the, on the face of the earth where the indigenous peoples are said to be occupiers and settlers. The word Palestinian was made up in 1964 by Arafat, who was an Egyptian and Arafat was working with the KGB and the Russians. They came up with the entire scheme. They're not Palestinians. They came up with the name. They're Arabs. They were Bedouins, 70% of whom live in Jordan and 70% of whom still live in Jordan. But Jordan doesn't want them. He doesn't. They don't want them back. Why? Because they have a terrorist mentality at a young age. That's what they're taught. And he doesn't want his little monarchy to be overthrown. His wife is a Palestinian, quote unquote. His father fought the Palestinians, quote unquote in a civil war and killed thousands of them. They want nothing to do with them. The Egyptians, who have the biggest wall and the biggest fence to keep the quote unquote Palestinians in Gaza because it's right there on the Sinai Peninsula, they want nothing to do with them either. They want this to be a problem for Israel. So we have American diplomats and others going on about how to fix this and Israel needs to do this and that. And they never mentioned the Jordanians or the Egyptians. You can see what a fraud this entire thing is. Now, if you look at the Bible, the whole Bible, you're not going to find the Palestinians in the Bible. No, in fact, you're not going to find Muslims in the Bible because they didn't come around until about 1400, the year 1400, let alone Palestinians. The Christians. The Christians used to be the majority population in most of these countries and now they barely even exist, if they exist at all. So now there's one little dot on the map where the indigenous peoples, the Jews, lived. And it's provable in every way. Now that's supposed to be free Palestine from the river to the sea because they want to blow the Jews out of there. It's that simple. That's what's going on.
- [101:35]
Bruce Blakeman
And here we are in America and they're on these overpasses on the freeway in there. I don't know what they think a bunch of people in cars, you know, in America are going to do to free them from whatever it is they think is imprisoning them here in the United States.
- [101:53]
Mark Levin
And nobody is, you know, it's just so ridiculous. All right, my friend, thank you for your call. I appreciate it. All right, let us continue. Let us go to Greg Bluebell, Pennsylvania, my old neck of the woods on Sirius XM Satellite. Go right ahead.
- [102:16]
Bruce Blakeman
Hi, Mark. Earlier in the show you were talking about data centers. And I've been wondering for a while who is funding the anti data center.
- [102:27]
Mark Levin
Yeah, somebody.
- [102:28]
Bruce Blakeman
Because every night, pretty much every night on local news in Philadelphia, you see very organized, very vocal, very, I would say almost violent opposition to data centers. There was a story on the local news last night about a data center that Amazon is building. And I'm not, I'm no special cleaner for Amazon. I don't, I don't care who's building them. It was a data center that was being built in Delaware County. It was at the site of a, an abandoned steel mill. So there was nothing there.
- [103:02]
Mark Levin
Right.
- [103:02]
Bruce Blakeman
And the people there are going crazy about, you know, what is this data center going to do?
- [103:07]
Mark Levin
Well, who does it benefit not to have data centers in America? Who does it benefit?
- [103:13]
Bruce Blakeman
China?
- [103:13]
Mark Levin
Our enemies? Communist China, among others. You know, Mr. Wonderful got in trouble because he directly linked the Communist Chinese to funding the campaigns against it. I can't directly link anybody, but if I were looking, I'd start looking right there because they certainly benefit because they want to be the number one on AI. And if you have states, stupid moronic governors like Hochul who are literally banning, having moratoriums against building these, these incredible facilities so we can advance this nation. Well, that benefits Communist China, among others, doesn't it?
- [103:54]
Bruce Blakeman
Yes. And Mark, you mentioned that you live in Loudoun county and there are a lot of data centers there. It's like a hub for data.
- [104:00]
Mark Levin
It's the data center of the, the world, pretty much. The United States, I should say.
- [104:05]
Bruce Blakeman
Is your water, is your air or your infrastructure negatively impacted by the data?
- [104:12]
Mark Levin
And you know what else? The President has even talked about this having many nuclear power plants for each one of these buildings. So they will overcome this. They will figure it out. But you can't be responding with phony climate change regulations and limiting the availability of electricity and doing what New York does and what they do in New England. And then these data centers come in, they need a lot of energy and so forth, and then blame them for the price of energy when in fact it's government that's already driven up the price of energy. Now the water's fine, the air's fine, everybody's fine. And more and more liberal Democrats are moving out here to work for these companies. And they've turned a red state into a blue state, a very red county into a very blue county. And they're probably vote for climate change candidates while they're working at these AI data centers. You know they're morons, right?
- [105:10]
Bruce Blakeman
They wrote their own jobs way.
- [105:13]
Mark Levin
All right, sir, great call. We'll be right back. Mud loving. Hi, Ryan Reynolds here for Mint Mobile.

of $45 for three months, $90 for six months or $180 for a 12 month plan required $15 per month equivalent taxes and fees. Extra initial plan term only greater than 50. Gigs me slow when network is busy. C terminate. All right, let us keep going. Let's go to Robbie, San Diego, California on the Mark Levin app. Robby, how are you?
- [106:09]
Bruce Blakeman
Good, Mark, how are you?
- [106:10]
Mark Levin
Very well, thank you, sir.
- [106:14]
Bruce Blakeman
My point today is that it is, it's critical that President Trump takes out the IRGC and the Iranian regime for beyond all the obvious reasons. Another obvious reason is because they are he's top on their hit list. And by taking them out, it would deny them the means and method, the means and methods to take him out.
- [106:36]
Mark Levin
And I agree with that. I mean, he wants to take out him. He wants to take, they, excuse me, want to take out his family. They want to take out a number of their prominent people. Enough is enough with this damnable regime.
- [106:52]
Bruce Blakeman
And I'm concerned that if there is some sort of deal then President Trump expressed appreciation to the regime for releasing an American today. But I'm concerned that if President Trump changes his trajectory to being more favorable toward a deal that could actually enable the regime to make good on their Heaven forbid. To make good on their threats to President Trump and his family.
- [107:12]
Mark Levin
Well, you're right. And I wouldn't be fooled by these people by now. Nobody should be fooled by these people after 47 years, almost 48 years, and plus what they've done the last one year. It's enough already. All right, Robby, thank you for your call, my friend. Let us keep going. Ben. Gulf Shores, Alabama. I know where that is too. Sirius XM satellite. Ben, how are you, sir?
- [107:36]
Bruce Blakeman
I am well, how are you?
- [107:38]
Mark Levin
Very well, thank you.
- [107:41]
Bruce Blakeman
Gonna be a little satirical here, but what are your thoughts about adding a third party to section 219 of the National Defense Authorization Act?
- [107:50]
Mark Levin
Meaning
- [107:53]
Bruce Blakeman
what if we just added China?
- [107:56]
Mark Levin
Uh huh.
- [107:57]
Bruce Blakeman
So we.
- [107:57]
Mark Levin
What would that do? Section 219,
- [108:01]
Bruce Blakeman
well, that would officially merge in terms of new defense technologies, exploration, a unification with Israel and China, which would completely put the second hand of the American throat.
- [108:15]
Mark Levin
Why would, why would we, why would we unite with China in any way when China is our enemy?
- [108:23]
Bruce Blakeman
That is a question that's staring yourself right in the mirror. Why on God's green earth would we give up the autonomy of the American defense system and merge that with any foreign.
- [108:35]
Mark Levin
We're not merging it with Israel. Why do people keep saying that? Did you read it? Do you understand what they're doing with Israel? That it would be a memorandum of understanding in terms of shared technology and so forth going each way. But we're not sharing our defense activities all along the board. We're not doing that as afraid. He was one of them. We salute our armed forces, police officers, firefighters, emergency personnel, our truckers, ICE men and women in Ukraine, men and women in Iran, men and women in Israel, and you, the American people. God bless each and every one of you. See you tomorrow.
