Mark Levin Podcast

On Thursday’s Mark Levin Show, when did Democrats last voice concerns over tariffs imposed on our products and services that increase consumer goods prices for us? They appear silent on tariffs from China and Canada today but decades ago they weren’t silent. From the founding of the U.S. until 1913, tariffs funded about 95% of the government. While some blame tariffs for the Great Depression, Milton Friedman argued it resulted from a recession exacerbated by the Federal Reserve’s tight monetary policy, not tariffs. Trump is pursuing an unprecedented strategy in U.S. history by combining massive tax cuts, deregulation, reductions in government size and personnel, and tariffs, all with the goal of re-industrializing America. Do tax cuts cause inflation or cause deficits? No. Inflation stems from government actions, not the private sector. Tax cuts create economic growth, wealth, and prosperity - across the board.

On Wednesday’s Mark Levin Show, President Trump’s tariffs must be paired with major Trump tax cuts to avoid a recession and grow the economy. Tax cuts don’t cause inflation or deficits—government spending and money printing do. Ronald Reagan’s tax cuts prove this. Without tax cuts, a recession will hit, and Republicans will suffer in the midterms. This is the Democrat's economy which Trump is trying to fix. Also, the Wisconsin Supreme Court vote was a tragic missed opportunity that could lead the state toward a California-like future. Non-voting Republicans failed to protect their communities, potentially dooming the state to soaring taxes and regulations, marking another instance of self-inflicted tyranny. Later, the media is shockingly defending criminals and terrorists, as seen when Leslie Stahl asked a hostage if Hamas starved him due to their own lack of food. Meanwhile, they ignore critical stories, like a young Palestinian murdered for opposing Hamas. You can’t believe the media. Additionally, ICE has deported over 100,000 illegal immigrants in the last 70 days under the Trump administration. While the illegal immigration crisis is improving, progress is hindered by the radical left as Judges continue to challenge Trump's efforts to remove illegal criminals. Radical district judges claim that illegal criminals have a right to due process, aiming to clog the court system. These judges are bureaucrats hired by other bureaucrats. Finally, it’s of great concern that Russia will invade a small NATO country triggering Article V and testing our resolve, but simultaneously China will invade Taiwan, which would create a very, very serious set of problems for our country. Both countries are creating bases throughout the world, from the arctic circle to our hemisphere (including the Panama Canal), western Africa to the South China sea. Learn more about your ad choices.

On Tuesday’s Mark Levin Show, a Republican congresswoman pushed for proxy voting for pregnant women, but the vast majority of Republicans don’t believe in proxy voting. Show up or don’t vote. 9 Republicans got upset and voted with Democrats, which canceled votes for the week. A tiny minority shouldn’t be able to derail President Trump’s priorities. We can’t have this constant blackmail. They have a budget bill to pass, and they need to get massive tax cuts in place. The key to economic growth in an environment like this is tax cuts - big, broad, tax cuts. It's the only way to either prevent or limit the life of a recession. The Democrats drove the economy into hyperinflation by printing paper. Tax cuts don't print anything, they actually create real, earned, tangible wealth. It’s money created by the private sector for the private sector, not the bloated, corrupt government and its fraudulent spending. Any Republican who slows or opposes huge across-the-board tax cuts is a fool. Pass the Trump tax cuts and do it as fast as possible! Also, Wisconsin and Florida have special elections today. Randy Fine wins in the 6th Congressional District in Florida. Jimmy Patronis wins in the 1st Congressional District in Florida. Those are 2 big wins for Florida and the country. If the liberal judge wins in Wisconsin, it will effectively become a one-party state. Later, China’s threats to Taiwan mean we should arm Taiwan with missiles to strike back, not just defend. Taiwan must be ready, learning from Ukraine and Israel, to hit the enemy effectively. Afterward, judicial tyranny continues - these judges are being used as weapons to threaten and stop President Trump. Trump and Elon Musk are doing the absolute best that they can to fix the country, and they are calling him a dictator. How is he a dictator? How many dictators reduce the amount of people who work for him? Finally, Dina and Dave McCormick call in to discuss their new book - Who Believed in You: How Purposeful Mentorship Changes the World.

On Monday’s Mark Levin Show, publishing classified information violates the Espionage Act, yet Jeffrey Goldberg, who has suggested he has published classified information, faces no apparent consequences. Despite confessing his awareness and emphasizing the information’s classified nature, the lack of accountability—coupled with efforts to exaggerate an insignificant Signal chat—raises questions about the legal consistency. Nothing happened as a result of this Signal chat, but Democrats are attempting to spin it into something significant that it isn’t. Also, Sen Chuck Grassley introduced legislation to clarify the scope of Judicial relief. “The bill would limit federal court orders to parties directly before the court – ending the practice of universal injunctions and clarifying the constitutional role of the judicial branch.” This needs to be done. Later, Randy Fine calls in to discuss the importance of Tuesday’s special election in Florida’s 6th Congressional District, urging Floridians to treat it as a national election due to its potential impact on the whole country. Afterward, Elon Musk revealed that over 4.8 million noncitizens have received Social Security numbers since fiscal year 2021 under the Biden administration, with a significant spike to 2.1 million in 2024 alone. 1.3 million of these noncitizens were also on Medicaid, and some may have even voted. In addition, Democrats know what they stand for – they support socialism, open borders, a weak military, and electoral fraud, but their challenge lies in the lack of American public support for these positions. Rather than rethinking their stance, they are focused on finding better ways to sell their agenda – these are the American Marxism. Finally, Mark explains the biggest problem with Marxism.

This week on the Mark Levin Show, the Houthis “have attacked U.S. warships 174 times and commercial vessels 145 times since 2023.” That's 319 acts of war. That's why President Trump ordered military operations against the Houthis. They attacked us over and over and over again. Unprovoked. For the hate America First appeasers, why are you on the side of the enemy? Mike Huckabee's confirmation hearing for U.S. ambassador to Israel was minimally covered, with only C-SPAN reporting while network and cable TV ignored it, amid vicious protests from Code Pink and bias from Democrats favoring Hamas. He delivered a masterful lesson on our nation’s founding, its connection to God, Judaism, and Christianity, and our ties to Israel. The Democrat media and Democrats are desperately trying to create a scandal with the Atlantic, Signal story. There is no scandal. Senator Roger Marshall is defending Qatar despite its role in funding terrorism globally, including support for Hamas, which has taken American hostages. While Qatar collaborates with Iran and shelters Hamas leaders, Marshall tries to highlight positive aspects of the country, seemingly excusing its actions. Why did Marshall choose not to bring up examples of Qatar funding terrorism? Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

On Friday's Mark Levin Show, Ben Ferguson from the Ben Ferguson podcast fills in. Democrats are in an uproar over Elon Musk, displaying behavior that seems petty and unhinged. Instead of focusing on pressing issues, they target Musk and President Trump. Musk is transforming the culture surrounding economic mismanagement and the left's agenda, which doesn't align with the country's needs or desires. He has efficiently exposed and removed individuals causing harm to the nation. Additionally, President Trump has assembled a remarkable team dedicated to repairing and improving the country, necessitating the removal of harmful individuals. The President of the United States shouldn't have to contend with district judges undermining his efforts. Lastly, some schools are resisting Trump's ban on biological men participating in women's sports. Governor Janet Mills is defying Trump's law, stating that Maine will not comply. A viral video reveals schools in Maine allowing biological men to compete in women's sports. Mills responded by saying, "We'll see you in court." Her strategy involves using the law while not adhering to it. Where are the feminists supporting women's rights? Mills has no right to ignore a federal law affecting women's rights; this is illegal, and she should step down as governor. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

On Thursday’s Mark Levin Show, Sen Roger Marshall is defending Qatar despite its role in funding terrorism globally, including support for Hamas, which has taken American hostages. While Qatar collaborates with Iran and shelters Hamas leaders, Marshall tries to highlight positive aspects of the country, seemingly excusing its actions. Why did Marshall choose not to bring up examples of Qatar funding terrorism? Does he understand the difference between an ally and an adversary? Also, Democrats are targeting Pete Hegseth, while Soros- and Koch-backed Republicans are gunning for Mike Waltz over the Signal text controversy. Ultimately, though, it’s Trump the Democrats are after. Hegseth and Waltz must hold firm, or the presidency will suffer. Later, Trump, Kristi Noem, Pam Bondi, Kash Patel, and Tom Homan have been making significant strides in cleaning up our streets. Despite resistance from judges slowing their efforts, they’ve done an outstanding job, notably apprehending a high-ranking MS-13 leader labeled the "worst of the worst."

On Wednesday’s Mark Levin Show, the Democrat media and Democrats are desperately trying to create a scandal with the Atlantic, Signal story. There is no scandal. There was no threat to our armed forces or the ongoing mission. President Trump will get to the bottom of it. More attention has been devoted to the Signal story than to the 13 courageous soldiers who lost their lives during Biden’s horrific Afghanistan withdrawal. We’re bombing the hell out of the Houthis and we’re not getting many reports on it. Later, a group filed a lawsuit over the Trump administration's Signal group chat, and it was amazingly assigned to Judge Boasberg - the same judge hearing the deportation case. This case should be thrown out because the group doesn’t have standing. Also, it’s illogical that a single district court judge, at the lowest level, can issue an order impacting the entire nation, while a lone Supreme Court justice lacks similar authority. Although appeals are an option, the process can drag on for years, exacerbating the issue. To address this imbalance, the Supreme Court should take up one of these cases and provide a definitive resolution. Afterward, Randy Fine calls in to discuss his special election campaign in Florida’s 6th Congressional District, where the outcome could significantly impact Trump’s agenda. Fine is prepared to enact legislation to support Trump’s policy goals. In addition, Dr Elaine Healy joins the show, she exposed Andrew Cuomo’s directive to put COVID patients in nursing homes on this show 5 years ago. Finally, YAF President Scott Walker joins the show to highlight the significance of the Wisconsin Supreme Court election. He warns that a liberal victory could lead to redrawn congressional districts, eliminating two Republican seats. Should Republicans lose both this race and the Florida congressional seat Democrats might gain control of the House of Representatives. Learn more about your ad choices.

On Tuesday’s Mark Levin Show, Mike Huckabee's confirmation hearing for U.S. ambassador to Israel was minimally covered, with only C-SPAN reporting while network and cable TV ignored it, amid vicious protests from Code Pink and bias from Democrats favoring Hamas. He delivered a masterful lesson on our nation’s founding, its connection to God, Judaism, and Christianity, and our ties to Israel. There’s growing concern over unprecedented cooperation among China, Russia, Iran, and North Korea against the U.S., alongside rising antisemitism, which President Trump is trying to address despite resistance from Democrat-appointed judges. Islamists and Marxists have the same goal: the destruction of Western civilization. The U.S. isn’t engaging the Houthis over Israel; rather, the Houthis have struck our ships 319 times, constituting clear acts of war. Also, Jim Jordan calls in to address methods for curbing federal judges who act as if they hold presidential authority. He also recounts his memorable experience attending a wrestling match with Trump and highlights Wyatt Hendrickson’s incredible victory. Later, the signal leak wasn’t good but it’s not the crisis of the century. It was a discussion, and no classified information was revealed. Finally, Steve Hilton calls in to discuss his new book, Califailure: Reversing the Ruin of America’s Worst-Run State. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

On Monday’s Mark Levin Show, an Obama-appointed judge on the D.C. Circuit obnoxiously opposed the Trump administration's plan to deport Venezuelan gang members who entered the U.S. illegally. They are here illegally; there’s no due process. These judges are overstepping their role by trying to create due process for these individuals when this is a national security matter outside their jurisdiction. These judges are protecting brutal gang members as part of a broader battle, with the ultimate war aimed at undermining Trump. Also, the Atlantic’s Jeffrey Goldberg claims he was accidentally included in a text chain about military plans to strike the Houthis. How can this be an accident? Secretary Hegseth Pete Hegseth came out and said, “nobody was texting war plans.” Then, according to left-wing Politico, NSA Mike Waltz’s “future in doubt following accidental war plan leak,” which may be disinformation or a leak. There’s a campaign to oust Waltz, most likely from the isolationists. This is a set-up. The administration must defend Waltz against this apparent push to remove him. Later, the Houthis “have attacked U.S. warships 174 times and commercial vessels 145 times since 2023.” That's 319 acts of war. That's why President Trump ordered military operations against the Houthis. They attacked us over and over and over again. Unprovoked. For the hate America First appeasers, why are you on the side of the enemy? Finally, Sen Ron Johnson calls in to explain the critical importance of the Wisconsin Supreme Court election, emphasizing that this race carries significant national implications.

This week on the Mark Levin Show, the Constitutional crisis we face right now is coming out of the lower courts of the federal judiciary and it must be stopped. We have a federal Judge who ordered President Trump to call back an airplane that was flying vicious criminals back to El Salvador and we have every right to call these Judges out. When Judges act like politicians they must be criticized. The official position of MAGA: Iran will not get nukes. The President, Secretary of Defense, Secretary of State, and National Security Advisor all said in the last 24-36 hours that by hook or by crook, Iran must not and will not get nuclear weapons. A remarkable chapter in space exploration closed with the safe return of 2 astronauts stranded for nine months—a feat made possible by Elon Musk and his SpaceX team. This historic achievement underscores what innovation and determination can accomplish, even as Musk faces unjust criticism and vandalism from the left targeting Tesla. While detractors attack, Musk succeeds where others couldn’t, saving two astronauts in a mission prioritized by President Trump. Unelected federal district judges, particularly in Democrat-leaning areas, are overstepping their authority and undermining the separation of powers by issuing vague or overly broad orders that interfere with presidential duties, such as immigration enforcement and border security. This is judicial overreach, unchecked by the Supreme Court or Chief Justice John Roberts, and it threatens the constitutional framework, potentially leading to a judicial oligarchy or tyranny. Also, Sen Bernie Sanders is a Stalinist. To him, the Democratic Party isn’t wrong—it’s just not committed enough. Why is it acceptable for a man who shares the ideology of Castro and Mao to be treated like just another liberal? Bernie worships Marxism. He uses the language of the Constitution to attack the Constitution, which is typical of Marxists. Also, Musk’s legal team should explore filing tortious interference lawsuits against individuals, including members of Congress, who are attempting to undermine Tesla.

On Friday’s Mark Levin Show, Rep Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (AOC) and Sen Bernie Sanders are staunch Marxists, even though AOC shows she has never deeply read the texts of Marx or Hegel. Marxism is all about slogans, skills Sanders excels at while AOC is still developing. There isn’t one place where Marxism has worked, yet this is what they push. Later, there is this fusion between Marxism and Islamism. The People’s Forum, a pro-Communist Chinese Party (CCP) Marxist group, is orchestrating protests to free Mahmoud Khalil. The group has ties to radical left-wing organizations like Code Pink and has a history of supporting anti-Israel and pro-Palestinian causes, including celebrating Hamas attacks. Also, the mainstream media is downplaying the fact that Badar Khan Suri, a Georgetown University student facing deportation by the Trump administration, is the son-in-law of a senior Hamas official, Yousef Saleh. The media portray Suri as merely a researcher or student caught in a legal dispute, ignoring his alleged ties to Hamas and his promotion of antisemitic propaganda on social media. Afterward, Jim Trusty calls in to discuss the Trump administration facing an unprecedented number of legal injunctions, far surpassing those of any previous president. This is the continuing of lawfare. In addition, leftwing conflicted Obama judge, James Boasberg, is looking to hold the Trump administration in contempt. That's what he's doing, and he wants to make a big splash, get lots of media headlines, and try to sabotage the Trump administration. He wants to create the impression that Trump is lawless when, in fact, Boasberg is lawless. He wants to play into the Democrat Party narrative that Trump is a dictator, when it is Boasberg who is the autocrat. Finally, Jim Simpson joins the conversation to talk about his new book, Manufactured Crisis: The War to End America. https://www.amazon.com/Manufactured-Crisis-War-End-America/dp/B0DGD854FS/ Learn more about your ad choices.

On Thursday’s Mark Levin Show, President Trump and Elon Musk and Donald Trump are key figures working to save the country, but they face strong resistance from Democrats and the ruling class, who will use procedural tactics to stall progress, much like they did with Ronald Reagan. Judges are becoming more politically extreme, with actions like blocking DOGE’s access to Social Security data and rulings on transgender military bans, while Sen Chuck Schumer’s admission of politicized judicial appointments confirms these concerns. Democrats know which judges will deliver for them. Democrats, though unpopular, hold sway over unelected government branches. When they win elections, they tout it as a public mandate, but when Republicans prevail, they shift focus to these unelected entities to retain influence, which they are doing now. Also, Musk’s legal team should explore filing tortious interference lawsuits against individuals, including members of Congress, who are attempting to undermine Tesla. Congressional immunity under the Speech and Debate Clause does not apply when statements are made outside of Congress or are unrelated to official legislative duties. Those orchestrating, financing, or executing efforts to harm Tesla could potentially be held accountable, making this an avenue worth investigating thoroughly. Later, Benjamin Hall calls in to discuss his new book, Resolute: How We Humans Keep Finding Ways to Beat the Toughest Odds. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

On Wednesday’s Mark Levin Show, unelected federal district judges, particularly in Democrat-leaning areas, are overstepping their authority and undermining the separation of powers by issuing vague or overly broad orders that interfere with presidential duties, such as immigration enforcement and border security. This is judicial overreach, unchecked by the Supreme Court or Chief Justice John Roberts, and it threatens the constitutional framework, potentially leading to a judicial oligarchy or tyranny. The judiciary needs to respect the elected executive branch, and the Supreme Court needs to intervene and uphold constitutional principles. These federal judges are acting beyond their role, not just interpreting laws but effectively rewriting the Constitution. These are rogue judges or ‘rewriters’ who are overstepping their authority and undermining the judicial system’s purpose. Also, Sen Bernie Sanders is a Stalinist. To him, the Democratic Party isn’t wrong—it’s just not committed enough. Why is it acceptable for a man who shares the ideology of Castro and Mao to be treated like just another liberal? Bernie worships Marxism. He uses the language of the Constitution to attack the Constitution, which is typical of Marxists. Finally, Josh Hammer calls in to discuss his new book, Israel and Civilization: The Fate of the Jewish Nation and the Destiny of the West. https://www.amazon.com/Israel-Civilization-Jewish-Nation-Destiny/dp/1635769736/ Learn more about your ad choices.

On Tuesday’s Mark Levin Show, a remarkable chapter in space exploration closed with the safe return of 2 astronauts stranded for nine months—a feat made possible by Elon Musk and his SpaceX team. This historic achievement underscores what innovation and determination can accomplish, even as Musk faces unjust criticism and vandalism from the left targeting Tesla. While detractors attack, Musk succeeds where others couldn’t, saving two astronauts in a mission prioritized by President Trump. A legal immigrant who built Tesla, SpaceX, and PayPal from the ground up, Musk exemplifies the power of capitalism and patriotism. Instead of tearing down, he creates—and his billionaire status is well-earned. It’s time to celebrate Musk’s contributions rather than dwell on division and destruction coming from the left. Also, it’s clear the media remains fixated on defending the ruling class and bureaucracy, sidelining the countless Americans who contribute daily to the nation’s fabric. While innovators, farmers, truckers, and workers drive progress, their stories are drowned out by endless coverage of Washington, D.C. elites. This skewed lens doesn’t reflect America—it manipulates and dismisses the majority, leaving the heart of the country overlooked and undervalued. Later, Judge James Boasberg ordered deportations of alleged gang members without disclosing his daughter’s ties to an organization aiding such individuals. His initial verbal order was imprecise and followed by a written one after planes had left, suggesting no violation by Trump. Boasberg overstepped his jurisdiction, as immigration policy falls under presidential authority, not judicial oversight. Afterward, is it Voice of America or voice of hard left? Originally established to broadcast American values and principles into communist nations, VOA has instead morphed into a platform for leftist agendas. It has promoted a pro-Iran perspective, delivered anti-Israel reporting, and even disseminated content from Russian propagandists. Finally, Julie Kelly calls in to discuss January 6 and Ray Epps’ connection to Judge Boasberg. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

On Monday’s Mark Levin Show, the Constitutional crisis we face right now is coming out of the lower courts of the federal judiciary and it must be stopped. We have a federal Judge who ordered President Trump to call back an airplane that was flying vicious criminals back to El Salvador and we have every right to call these Judges out. When Judges act like politicians they must be criticized. This all ties back to Marbury vs Madison and it affects you. Chief Justice John Marshall’s decision, which established the Supreme Court’s power to strike down laws deemed unconstitutional, was a dangerous overreach not intended by the Founding Fathers. The Constitution does not explicitly grant the judiciary this authority, portraying judicial review as an implied power that Marshall seized to expand the Court’s influence. This decision in this case laid the groundwork for the judicial tyranny which has since undermined the republic, allowing unelected judges to override the will of the people and the legislative branch. Also, for the apologists of the Iranian terror regime, a nuclear warhead on an intercontinental missile has the capacity to kill millions of Americans. To pretend otherwise is unconscionable and insane. Trump is 100% right, Iran must never get a nuclear weapon, period! The official position of MAGA: Iran will not get nukes. The President, Secretary of Defense, Secretary of State, and National Security Advisor all said in the last 24-36 hours that by hook or by crook, Iran must not and will not get nuclear weapons. Then comes this bizarre claim - Israel’s got nukes! Yes, but they’ve never dropped them on any of their enemies, never even waved them around as a threat because Israel’s the core of the Holy Land.

This week on the Mark Levin Show, Mahmoud Khalil, a Columbia University terrorist sympathizer, was detained by federal immigration officials. However, an Obama-appointed judge stepped in to rescue this non-student, green-card-holding activist, who supports overseas terrorist organizations and shouldn’t even be on Columbia’s campus—or in the U.S.—given his actions and affiliations. Khalil leads Columbia United Apartheid Divest (CUAD), a radical group that backs terrorist organizations like Hamas and Hezbollah. The House passed a continuing resolution that proposes slashing non-defense spending by $13 billion while aiming to avert a government shutdown. Representative Thomas Massie voted against it, he should recognize the importance of prudence in deciding when to vote "yes" or "no." The bill has advanced to the Senate, where Sen Lisa Murkowski will most likely oppose it, most likely due to her ties to the teachers' union. Federal Democrat judges are out of control, and we are living under a judicial tyranny where they are creating their own power. Judge Beryl Howell blocked what was deemed an 'unlawful' President Trump order that targeted a law firm that had represented the Hillary Clinton campaign. The Judge does not actually possess the authority to make such a ruling. Also, Israel is facing an attempted coup by its deep state with the former head of Shin Bet threatening to expose private information about Benjamin Netanyahu if he fires the current Shin Bet chief, Ronen Bar, over Bar's failure to prevent the October 7 Hamas attack. There’s coordination between deep state operatives and left-wing media to undermine Netanyahu’s democratically elected government. Learn more about your ad choices.

On Friday’s Mark Levin Show, 10 Senate Democrats joined Republicans in support of keeping the government open, with 38 Democrats, voting for a filibuster, ultimately supporting a shutdown. The Continuing Resolution (CR) will now pass with a simple majority. The media, anticipating a shutdown, was ready to criticize the Republicans for clicks but is now frustrated at Sen Chuck Schumer. Had the government shut down, Democrats would have faced a difficult situation: President Trump and DOGE could have used the opportunity to cut non-essential employees and agencies, with budget law allowing these reductions to be self-identified. Also, Democrats consistently label Republicans as extreme, which is as a lie and a manipulative tactic. This misrepresentation, particularly regarding Medicaid, Medicare, and Social Security, is intended to confuse and mislead the American public rather than provide factual information. The left employs these tactics to manipulate perception and advance its political agenda. Later, the Attorney for Mahmoud Khalil argues that his case is a free speech issue. This case has absolutely nothing to do with free speech, this is an immigration issue. Democrats are attempting to establish a non-existent legal standard for green card holders. What is driving the protests at Columbia University? The institution has a longstanding presence of Marxist-leaning faculty, fostering a blend of Islamist and Marxist ideologies. They reject the principles of academic freedom, favoring coercion over open debate. Finally, Charlie Gasparino calls in to explain that that during President Biden’s last months in office, his administration allegedly spent between $250 billion and $300 billion on unnecessary expenditures, intended to stimulate the economy to get Kamala Harris elected. This is criminal in many ways. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

On Thursday’s Mark Levin Show, Sen Chuck Schumer reverses course in the face of massive public condemnation and says he will not vote for a government shutdown. Now, all those Senate Democrats who said they must shutdown the government to save the government, and all the House Democrats who actually voted against the bill, look as pathetic and dishonest as they come. A complete political and PR disaster, and deservedly so. This 11th hour, sudden course reversal fools no one. The Democrat leadership and their lapdogs were against the bill, then for the bill, and now they're all over the place. Also, Israel is facing an attempted coup by its deep state with the former head of Shin Bet threatening to expose private information about Benjamin Netanyahu if he fires the current Shin Bet chief, Ronen Bar, over Bar's failure to prevent the October 7 Hamas attack. There’s coordination between deep state operatives and left-wing media to undermine Netanyahu’s democratically elected government. Later, Jewish Voice for Peace protestors reportedly flooded into Trump Tower, which the media are calling a Jewish group, is a horrendous anti-Jewish organization. The notoriously antisemitic and anti-Israel Jewish Voice for Peace is a radical left/Marxist organization that seeks the elimination of the state of Israel and is a major force behind the BDS movement. It has received funding from, among others, George Soros. Today, it is insisting on the return of the alien who was among the leaders of the riotous events at Columbia University on behalf of Hamas. Alan Dershowitz calls in to discuss Jewish Voice for Peace’s ties to anti-Zionism and terrorism and the radicalization of Mahmoud Khalil. Finally, a judge has ruled that thousands of fired federal workers must be immediately rehired. Professor John Yoo calls in to explain that this ruling constitutes an unwarranted and illegal overreach by the judge. The judge lacks the authority to instruct the government on how to manage its personnel. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

In the latest episode of Liberty and Learning, Mark Levin engages in a deep and insightful dialogue with Dr. Larry Arnn, president of Hillsdale College, about the complexities of the Department of Education and its implications on American education. The conversation begins with a historical overview of the Department of Education, established in 1978, and its evolution into a powerful central authority that wields significant influence over educational policies across the nation. Levin and Arnn discuss how the federal government has used its financial resources to impose conditions on states and educational institutions, steering them towards uniformity and compliance with federal regulations. This centralization of education, they argue, undermines the fundamental principles of self-governance and local control that are essential to a thriving democracy. A significant focus of the episode is the Northwest Ordinance of 1787, a landmark piece of legislation that set the framework for how new territories would be governed and emphasized the importance of education. Arnn highlights the moral foundation laid out in the Ordinance, which states that 'religion, morality, and knowledge being necessary to good government and the happiness of mankind, schools and the means of education shall ever be encouraged.' This perspective on education as a moral imperative contrasts sharply with the current bureaucratic approach that often prioritizes compliance over character development. As the discussion unfolds, Levin and Arnn reflect on the pressing need for educational reform that returns power to local communities, allowing parents, teachers, and students to shape their educational experiences. They advocate for a system that encourages competition among states, fostering innovation and accountability in education, rather than a one-size-fits-all federal mandate. Looking ahead, the episode also touches on the upcoming 250th anniversary of the United States and the importance of celebrating the principles laid out in the Declaration of Independence. Levin and Arnn emphasize that understanding and teaching these foundational documents is crucial for the next generation, as they embody the ideals of freedom and self-governance that continue to resonate today. Liberty and Learning with Mark Levin and Dr. Larry Arnn is a 10-part series, hosted by veteran broadcaster and constitutional law expert, Mark Levin, and his good friend, Dr. Larry Arnn, President of Hillsdale College, dives deep into the founding principles of the U.S., as Americans face both crisis and opportunity. Levin and Arnn take listeners on a journey forward, as they unpack the country’s basic foundations and the self-government they require. Mark Levin and Dr. Arnn bring their knowledge and wisdom to bear in a candid conversation between lifelong friends on today’s latest news events. They will touch on the points of crisis in America, addressing each in light of our constitutional government, and tackling the pressing issues of our time to see how they fit into the grand tapestry of American history. The discussion will delve deep into the issues at the forefront of our nation’s concerns, like education, borders, citizenship, separation of powers, state and local government, and much more.
