10/6/25 - The Insurrection Act: America's Unused Power Against Civil Unrest

Interactive Transcript

spk_0 You know, America's best days have yet to come, and that's because conservatives like you

spk_0 live the values of our great country.

spk_0 The Heritage Foundation ensures your voice is heard in the Washington Swamp, every day

spk_0 shining the light on a bright future.

spk_0 The Heritage Foundation stands for your values, and they won't give up the fight because

spk_0 they know you never will.

spk_0 Paid for it by the Heritage Foundation.

spk_0 He's here.

spk_0 Now broadcasting from the underground command post.

spk_0 Deep in the pals of a hidden bunker somewhere under the brick and steel of a non-distrib

spk_0 building.

spk_0 We've once again made contact with our leader, Mike.

spk_0 Love them.

spk_0 Hello, America.

spk_0 Mark Levin here.

spk_0 Our number 877-38138-1187-38138-11.

spk_0 What's taking place in these cities and in these blue states, ladies and gentlemen, is

spk_0 nothing short of breakaway government.

spk_0 Whether it's L.A., whether it's Portland, whether it's Chicago, whether it's Seattle,

spk_0 other big cities, breakaway government.

spk_0 What I mean by that is you have effectively these enclaves of Democrat party control,

spk_0 mayors and city council, mostly in blue states with Democrat governors that will not allow

spk_0 the federal government to enforce federal law under our federal constitution.

spk_0 In this case, the immigration laws and deportation.

spk_0 We now have instances where mayors have told the local police to stand down.

spk_0 We have now instances as we saw last night and before federal law enforcement, ICE and

spk_0 others under attack, physically under attack, by waves of riotous, violent Democrats.

spk_0 Effectively, I call this the private Democrat party militia, where they want, mostly illegal

spk_0 aliens actually, but citizens too, to rise up, to take on ICE federal law enforcement,

spk_0 to prevent the president from enforcing federal immigration law that was passed over many

spk_0 decades, in which he has the constitutional right and obligation to execute federal law.

spk_0 We see this with Newsom in California, we see it with Pritzker in Illinois, we see it

spk_0 now the president does have the ultimate authority under the Insurrection Act, the Insurrection

spk_0 Act of 1807 slash 1808.

spk_0 It's a federal law that authorized the president to deploy the military and federalize national

spk_0 guard troops within the United States to suppress civil unrest, insurrection and rebellion.

spk_0 That's correct.

spk_0 It's under Title 10 of the U.S. Code, you can check it out yourself, it's an exception,

spk_0 a significant exception, the Posse Comatotes Act of 1878 that typically prevents federal

spk_0 military forces from acting as domestic law enforcement.

spk_0 Now, the act permits the president to deploy troops domestically under three main conditions,

spk_0 when a state requests it, so that's not happening here, when federal law enforcement is impractical

spk_0 due to unlawful actions against U.S. authority, that's the key right there, or when domestic violence

spk_0 or conspiracies prevent inhabitants from exercising their constitutional rights.

spk_0 So, it's under the second condition, under the second condition.

spk_0 Now, this act has been triggered more than you might know.

spk_0 It was passed in 1807, and it was triggered in 1808 by Thomas Jefferson, on violations of the Embargo Act,

spk_0 around Lake Champlain.

spk_0 It was triggered in February 10, 1831 by Andrew Jackson, a rebellion suppressed, a slave rebellion suppressed.

spk_0 January 28, 1834, riot over labor disputes in Maryland, again, Jackson called out the military.

spk_0 It was triggered by Abraham Lincoln, April 15, 1861, the secession of southern states, the American Civil War.

spk_0 He triggered the Insurrection Act.

spk_0 October 17, 1871, Ulysses S. Grant, used the Insurrection Act to put down white supremacists and insurgency.

spk_0 By former Confederates, he used it on May 22, 1873, to put down violence in Louisiana after a contested election.

spk_0 Grant used it on December 21, 1874, again, to put down white supremacists in Vicksburg, Mississippi.

spk_0 Grant used it, you can see how horrendous the post-Sovah War period was.

spk_0 He used it in 1874 to put down an attempt by white supremacists to overthrow the government in Arkansas.

spk_0 Grant used it again, September 15, 1874, to put down a coup in Louisiana.

spk_0 He used it again, October 17, 1876, to put down supremacist white supremacist paramilitaries in South Carolina.

spk_0 October 17, 1878, Rutherford B. Hayes, used the Insurrection Act to war between rival business gang factions in Lincoln County, New Mexico.

spk_0 Chester Arthur, May 3, 1882, gang violence in the Arizona territory, gang suppression.

spk_0 He used it.

spk_0 Grover Cleveland, November 7, 1885, and February 9, 1886, riots against Chinese citizens of the Washington Territors occurred in 1885 and 1886.

spk_0 He sent in the military to protect them.

spk_0 Woodrow Wilson, used the Insurrection Act, April 28, 1914, to strike an uprising in Colorado, Warren Harding used it all August 30, 1921, to stop a strike and uprising in West Virginia.

spk_0 June 21, 1943.

spk_0 Franklin Roosevelt, the stopper race, riot and Detroit.

spk_0 September 23, 1957, you may recall this one, Dwight Eisenhower, called in the National Guard.

spk_0 Black students were being prevented from going to high school in Little Rock.

spk_0 September 30, 1962, John Kennedy used the Insurrection Act, siege and riot of University Mississippi due to racial integration.

spk_0 June 11, 1968, 1963, used it to Governor Alabama, who forbade black students from attending school in Tuscaloosa.

spk_0 September 10, 1963, John Kennedy used the Alabama National Guard, again, to open up integration to schools to black kids.

spk_0 Lyndon Johnson, he used the Insurrection Act.

spk_0 Alabama policemen were suppressing, suppressing protesters in Selma.

spk_0 July 24, 1967, again, riots in Detroit, to put down the riots in Detroit.

spk_0 April 5, 1968, Johnson used the Insurrection Act to put down riots in multiple states after the assassination of Martin Luther King.

spk_0 November 24, 1987, Ronald Reagan used the Insurrection Act.

spk_0 I was there when it happened.

spk_0 The riot in Atlanta, over-announced deportations of Cuban detainees.

spk_0 I was chief of staff to the Attorney General.

spk_0 I was the top point staffer working with the Attorney General in the White House, among many other agencies.

spk_0 It was a vicious, brutal, violent, bloody riot.

spk_0 And we called out the Marines, actually.

spk_0 September 20, 1989, in May 1992, George H.W. Bush, in the first instance, looting in the United States Virgin Islands after Hurricane Hugo, he sent in the military.

spk_0 In the second time, the riots in Los Angeles after the acquittal of policemen regarding Rodney King used it for riot suppression.

spk_0 So it is not unusual to use the Insurrection Act, the United States military, could be the Marines or any part of the military, to put down organized violence, in defiance of federal law and public safety.

spk_0 Now, we have governors, like we had governors in the segregationist South, like we had elements in the Confederate South, among others.

spk_0 The Democrat Party going back to its roots.

spk_0 Sanctuary City, sanctuary states, nullification of federal immigration law, obstructing the deportation of illegal aliens, including vicious criminals.

spk_0 I've been talking about this for a month, after a month, after a month on Fox, on the blaze, on radio, posting it on social media.

spk_0 And I want to thank people who have finally figured it out, and now are writing columns regurgitating what I said they should.

spk_0 Of course, without attribution, I get it. I get it. Everybody wants to be smarter. It's not the way to roll, but that's the problem. That's the times we live in today.

spk_0 So right now, Portland, Oregon and Chicago, Illinois are breakaway cities. Under the tutelage of breakaway Democrat governors.

spk_0 There's rioting by illegal aliens and their supporters in these cities. There's Antifa in Portland, which is a violent, violent law-breaking organization that has attacked that city for half a decade and longer.

spk_0 In Chicago, you have a mayor who is a Marxist, who hates law enforcement, and crime is through the roof. You have a governor who wants to be president.

spk_0 A billionaire who thinks the way you become president is to stop the enforcement of federal law.

spk_0 We have a supremacy clause under our constitution that does not allow these breakaway cities and states.

spk_0 Sanctuary cities and states are trying to nullify federal immigration laws. I've said again and again.

spk_0 It's now violent. The governor and these mayors, the governors and these mayors are essentially using illegal aliens and their supporters.

spk_0 Antifa and other domestic terrorist type organizations to fight federal law enforcement to usurp the federal constitution.

spk_0 We haven't seen it this bad since the lead up to the Civil War. Now they're electing Marxists, Islamists, who hate our country, who hate it, who hate our founding, who hate the West.

spk_0 All Democrats, well, no, they're democratic socialists. They find support and power in the Democrat Party.

spk_0 And the Democrat Party operatives, the language they use, they call it the whistle blowing, they're encouraging violence.

spk_0 Despite the fact that Donald Trump was almost assassinated twice, despite the fact that Charlie Kirk was murdered, he was assassinated.

spk_0 This despite the fact that Steve Scalise was critically wounded and almost died a decade or so ago by Bernie Sanders supporter.

spk_0 Oh yes, oh yes, this death definitely has the stench of the Civil War. We're not there yet, but it has the stench.

spk_0 And that's exactly what's taking place. These are not neo-Confederates. They are effectively Confederates for what that word means.

spk_0 They are breakaways, and they're trying to ensure the power of the Democrat Party, the power of the ideology by maintaining in this country.

spk_0 People who are not supposed to be here by using their power, their local law enforcement, or the lack of use of local law enforcement to help federal law enforcement.

spk_0 To ensure that these people stay, and there's one other thing that is truly notorious. They are sending a signal to the US Supreme Court on Birthright Citizenship.

spk_0 And this is my great fear that they will intimidate enough of these justices. There is literally zero constitutional basis for birthright citizenship.

spk_0 There's not a single statute that codifies birthright citizenship.

spk_0 But these breakaway cities and states are making it abundantly clear that they are prepared to go full-bore violent.

spk_0 And so are their rogue, detestable, activist, radical, federal judges. We'll be right back.

spk_0 Mark Lovane.

spk_0 The youth that today will be the leaders of tomorrow, and it's more critical now than ever, that we train up the next generation to fearlessly defend conservative values.

spk_0 The Heritage Foundation's Young Leaders Program, equips young conservatives with their principled foundation and policy knowledge needed to stand up in a world increasingly hostile to conservatives.

spk_0 The Young Leaders Program is more than an internship, participants work right alongside heritage professionals, and they learn valuable workplace skills.

spk_0 They attend weekly policy briefings from heritage's top experts and have access to practical skill building workshops.

spk_0 They visit historical sites in Washington, and even unparalleled mentorship opportunities.

spk_0 If you are anyone in your life who is looking to spend a semester in our nation's capital, with the best and the brightest of the conservative movement, please go to heritage.orgslash live-in.

spk_0 Go there today, learn more about the Young Leaders Program.

spk_0 Applications for the spring semester close October 5th, so you have to hurry.

spk_0 Our nation's future depends on patriots like you, spreading the word to make sure the next generation is equipped.

spk_0 Go to heritage.org slash live-in today that's heritage.org slash levi-in.

spk_0 Paid for by the Heritage Foundation.

spk_0 As you know, ladies and gentlemen, there has been a campaign to vilified, by the way, let me start this.

spk_0 I told you the other day I've never taken one scent from any foreign government, including Israel.

spk_0 Not a meal, not a plane trip, not a hotel room, not anything. Zero. Zero.

spk_0 Not directly, not indirectly, not in kind, nothing. Now what amazes me about this is Qatar and these other Arab countries, these other fiefdoms, these other imbreds, have spent billions in our country,

spk_0 buying businessmen, buying politicians, buying influencers and podcasters.

spk_0 Nobody asked them about the source of their money, and they've got blood all over their hands.

spk_0 They're bought and paid for propagandists, for Islamists.

spk_0 Now if anybody prominent accuses me of this, I'm going to sue their ass. I'm the cleanest guy on radio.

spk_0 Well, there's many of us, but certainly among them. But that's not going to happen. We're not going to put up with it.

spk_0 And the other thing is, we're getting hit on my sights when I post things. Some of you are saying, oh these comments are so horrendous.

spk_0 By foreign government bots, particularly out of Pakistan. So just understand that a lot of the crap and the clapped trap and hideous words that you're seeing, some of it's clearly from domestic sources, but a lot of it is from Muslim and Arab countries.

spk_0 I'll be right back.

spk_0 Through policy briefings, professional development workshops, lectures from the top conservative thinkers on first principles of conservatives, and more heritage equips young conservatives with the timeless truths, practical knowledge, and relevant skills needed to protect and advance conservative principles and policies.

spk_0 If you know young conservatives hungry for a challenge, please go to heritage.org slash live in heritage.org slash LVIN, find more information about the program and its impact on young conservatives.

spk_0 Applications for the spring semester close October 5. Say you got a hairy don't wait. Our nation's future depends on conservatives like you taking action to spread the word.

spk_0 Again, that's heritage.org slash live in heritage.org slash LVIN. Go there today. Let's do our part in training up the next generation of America's leaders. That's heritage.org slash live in paid for by the Heritage Foundation.

spk_0 McLeven America's poll review. Cool enough. That 877-3813-3811.

spk_0 So the mayor Chicago is about a negative seven popularity poll number just declared ice free zones. So it's a breakaway city to city with a mayor who actually is copying the worst of the Confederates up to and including the Civil War.

spk_0 With his nullification of federal immigration law and their attempt to use Serp. The president's power under the federal Constitution to enforce that law.

spk_0 And ice free zone is declared sanctuary city. He's declared these are all efforts efforts to break away from the federal government in this regard anyway and they cannot be put up with and eventually they're going to need to trigger the insurrection act.

spk_0 Which I just read you the long list that's been triggered about 20 25 times in the past starting with time as Jeffers. Now before we get to that, there has been a an insidious vicious campaign against the Prime Minister of Israel out of the pages of axios and other places.

spk_0 Probably mostly by staffers and bureaucrats and the usual. Trashing the relationship between Benjamin Netanyahu and President Trump and it's been an ongoing propaganda campaign from within our government too by the way.

spk_0 I want you to listen with the president had to say about this today and our friend Dennis D'Souza's with us and I want him with us because he has this fabulous movie that we want to talk about but I also want to start about this as he listens in cut six go.

spk_0 It was reported by access of the weekend that you have called the Prime Minister Netanyahu. We told him to stop being so negative and to take the win when it came to the bosses response to that. Is that true?

spk_0 No, it's not true. Well, he's been very positive. He's been very positive on the deal. Everybody is I think every nation is we have just about every nation working on this deal and trying to get it done something that you could say 3000 years if you look at it in certain ways and you could say centuries.

spk_0 But this is a deal that incredibly everyone just came together. They all came together. No, Israel has been great. They've all been good.

spk_0 And in the negotiations to be brought lines in terms of a homostasis or being and what not there are.

spk_0 There are certain things are met when I can do it. But I think we're doing very well and I think a mosque has been agreeing to things that are very important.

spk_0 This is why when I read things in the paper about Israel and the Jews and Netanyahu senior White House staff anonymous or senior officials anonymous people in the know anonymous.

spk_0 I mean, I attacked them, but I know it's not Trump. That's Trump.

spk_0 Dennis, do you see that? Am I right?

spk_0 I mean, Trump here is trying to do something that has been attempted for 50 years with no success. I mean, Mark, you and I old enough to remember the Carter piece plan and the Clinton plan.

spk_0 There have been so many presidential efforts to fix this and they haven't even made an inch of progress. And here you have Trump on the verge of doing something really quite remarkable.

spk_0 And how wicked it is that you have people here in America trying to drive a wedge a poison pill between Trump and Netanyahu right in the middle of this process.

spk_0 I mean, it's hard to believe that these are people who have the best interests of the US or MAGA at heart. I don't think they do.

spk_0 Now, you're 100% right. I wanted to bring it back because I want people to watch this movie. You know, I've now watched this. I'm going to tell you something. This is a tour to force. This is incredible.

spk_0 What you've done here, the dragons prophecy folks, this brand new film. And you know, in radio like TV, Dennis, you know, this as well as anybody, people come and go in the audience. You know, they have different things to do. I want you to remind people of what this tour to force is all about.

spk_0 And while you did it, I mean, it goes back to the Bible. I mean, I nobody is really presented it this way.

spk_0 That's right. We've heard a lot of kind of cliches from the left. Israel is a colonizer. We've heard now critiques from the right. But what the film does is it enlarges the perspective.

spk_0 One of the extremely startling points that is made by Jonathan Khan, who's the author of the book, the the dragon's prophecy is that some of these things were seeing in front of us, October 7th, the war, the aftermath of what's going on.

spk_0 And there are parallels to this in the Hebrew scriptures. You can find these parallels in the battles fought by the ancient Israelites 3000 years ago.

spk_0 Now, when I first heard that, I found it a bit hard to believe, but can't presses this point with a certain kind of rigor and determination that is just so much fun to watch.

spk_0 He says, for example, that the name Hamas, which by the way, in Arabic means something like force or strength, but in Hebrew, Hamas means violence. It means destruction.

spk_0 And you find it in the Hebrew scriptures. It says things like, Lord, save me from Hamas or the men of Hamas. Hamas dwells in the dark places. This is straight out of the scripture.

spk_0 So what we do in this film is we go back to the past. We also draw on biblical archaeology to authenticate the historicity of the Bible.

spk_0 And not only that, but to show through clay fields and stones and inscriptions that the Jews were in this land going back 4000 years. They are the original or aboriginal, if you want, inhabitants of this land.

spk_0 And then we bring it to the present. And we also look at some biblical prophecy pointing to some signposts in the future.

spk_0 So it's a unique film for me because it integrates politics with spirituality, with the Bible, and even with a hint of biblical prophecy.

spk_0 And you demonstrate unequivocally that this is the land of the Jew of the Jews that the so-called Palestinians have no claim to any of it and never have.

spk_0 Well, here's the weird thing is that the people who lived in Gaza three thousand years ago were called the Philistines, but they are not Semitic peoples. They are not Arabs. They came from Europe.

spk_0 They came from across the Mediterranean. They came from places like Cyprus. And so it is a matter of fact that the Palestinians, so-called, don't have their roots in Gaza the way the Jews do.

spk_0 And what's remarkable now is not just that they're authenticating the prophet Isaiah or King David. You'll find minor figures in the Bible mentioned in only a sentence or two.

spk_0 And suddenly a clay seal comes out of the ground. And it's the royal steward of King Hosea in the six or seven century BC, or it's some guy who was hanging around with kings Zedekiah in the time that Jeremiah was preaching against him.

spk_0 So there's no way. People said for decades the Bible was written centuries later by people who made stuff up and they embellished things. Nobody would even know who was the royal steward to the king three hundred years later.

spk_0 And yet here is a seal. And it's in the Bible and here it is jumping out of the Bible and into the pages of archaeology and history.

spk_0 The name Palestinian that the Nomenclature was actually invented wasn't it 1965 by an Egyptian?

spk_0 Well, it was an Egyptian name. Yes, the air thought, but guess what? Where did he get it from going back to the early centuries after Christ?

spk_0 What really happened was that there was some Jewish revolts and the Roman emperors to insult the Jews decided let's punish them by taking the name of their land, Israel and Judah and get rid of it.

spk_0 And let's replace it with the name of their ancient enemies, the Philistine. So this was actually an inflection on the Jews by the Romans and then fast forward to the 19 the middle of the 20th century and this name was picked up.

spk_0 So it was essentially dishonest from the beginning and it remains dishonest today.

spk_0 Are you hoping in addition to generally educating as many people as you can about this? It's very propitious. I mean the timing couldn't be better.

spk_0 But also pushing back on the elements certainly on the left, the Islamist Marxist elements, but certainly on the Cook right, the sort of the denier elements, which seemed to not only be unloading the worst kind of poison on the Jewish faith and Jews, but also on Christianity.

spk_0 And what is the Christianity with this notion of replacement theory?

spk_0 The replacement theory, I think, is utterly heretical. It's heretical, not just to some dispensational or Protestant stuff. It is heretical from the point of view of mainstream Christianity. I believe it was Pope John Paul II who said very famously on paraphrasing and slightly.

spk_0 He says it is the promised land for everybody. I'm sorry, it is the holy land for everybody, but it is the promised land to the Jews.

spk_0 And what he's talking about here is that the covenant of the Old Testament with Abraham remains intact. Yes, spiritually there is a new covenant in Jesus, but that doesn't mean that the Old covenant has been repudiated or somehow God gave the land to Abraham and his descendants in perpetuity.

spk_0 And now suddenly he's changed his mind and wants to take it back. That's absurd.

spk_0 And yet this attitude is being pushed on broadcast platforms and is certainly embraced by the most sort of poisonous elements out there.

spk_0 It is. And I think it's even more dangerous from the right. Look, we expected to be coming from the left, not to mention the fact that on the left you have this insidious alliance between the cultural left, the kind of LGBTQ left and the Islamic jihadis.

spk_0 Some people have called it the red green alliance red, referring of course to communism and green, that the colors of Islam. So we kind of expected from the left.

spk_0 But this coming from the right, I think is particularly poisonous. It divides Maga. It essentially helps radical Islam because look, there's a straight fight. The nation of Israel is fighting for its life against the global jihadis to undermine Israel is quite simply to help them.

spk_0 The global jihadis and it's also to help the cultural left in this country. So how can that be good for Maga? How can that be good for America? It's not.

spk_0 And yet here it is being aggressively pushed in a lot of young people are falling for it. It's part of the reason I wanted to jump for square into this debate.

spk_0 What the film does is it both is timely, but it's also timeless. It engages this debate. I take the question that Tucker Carlson posed to Ted Cruz. I take it straight to Netanyahu. And I have Netanyahu commenting directly about it, commenting on the Jewishness of Jesus. It's all extremely fascinating.

spk_0 But then I want the film to move into a kind of transcendental mode where it rises above this debate and gives people in a way the spiritual resources for the kind of renewal that I heard talked about at Charlie Kirk's funeral service.

spk_0 The idea of rising above all this, recognizing that it's a spiritual struggle and that ultimately we have to take sides each one of us, whether we want to be really on the side of God or whether we want to be on the side of the dragon.

spk_0 And that's the movie, the dragon's prophecy. It is a fantastic movie. I want you to check it out.

spk_0 Today, Wednesday, it's released in a number of theaters and online as well. Where do people go?

spk_0 Dinesh, if they want to go to the theater, they want to watch it online. It's ubiquitous. People need to get their hands on this. Where do they go?

spk_0 The best place to go and the one place to go is the website. It is the dragon's floral, the dragon's prophecy film.com. It's in theaters tonight, but it's also in theaters Wednesday night.

spk_0 And then Thursday it goes into streaming and DVD. You have to buy your theater tickets from the website. You can't buy them at the theater. You can't buy them at Fandango. Just go to the dragon's prophecy film.com.

spk_0 You can plug in your zip code and boom, the theaters around you will pop up by your ticket. See it in the theater if you can because I make these films in a highly cinematic and spectacular way.

spk_0 So there's nothing like being with fellow conservatives, fellow Jews and Christians watching it together. It's that's a unique experience.

spk_0 But if you want to watch it home, no problem. Wait till Thursday or sign up for the streaming now and you can watch it home as well this week.

spk_0 Very, very, very important movie. Mr. producer, make sure again that we put up that site. I want to encourage you folks to go to the theater. If you can't to watch online come Thursday, whatever you do, just watch it.

spk_0 It's going to have a major impact on you and a major pushback against so much of the lying and the static and the propaganda from the media and self-appointed influencers.

spk_0 Dinesh D'Souza, fantastic, my friend. God bless you and thanks for doing this. I really appreciate it. Thank you.

spk_0 All right. You too. What a great guy. And his wife's great. We met there. Part of my family and he and his wife at this city of David, special event, city David, you know, predates Jerusalem.

spk_0 And they were they've been able archaeologically to uncover more and more and more of it. It's absolutely stunning.

spk_0 And you have where the with the pilgrims walked where Jesus walked the pool that he used and others used.

spk_0 Jesus was a practicing well known rabbi raised in a Jewish belief system.

spk_0 When you read the New Testament and you read the people who surrounded him, they were Jewish.

spk_0 The connection between Judaism and Christianity is not debatable. Not debatable.

spk_0 For faithful Christians who understand this. There's a battle now underway between the anti-Semites who try to wrap themselves in the Christian church.

spk_0 And real Christians and pastors and others saying, wait a minute, you don't get to rewrite our faith like you're trying to rewrite the faith of Judaism.

spk_0 And the truth is that in the Holy Land, the Israelis are fighting those who have destroyed Christianity in their countries as much as they can. They've destroyed it. They've destroyed the churches.

spk_0 They've killed the people. They're still working on it in Syria. In Egypt, Christians are abused like hell. That's the battle. I'll be right back.

spk_0 Mark, love and...

spk_0 The youth that today will be the leaders of tomorrow. And it's more critical now than ever that we train up the next generation to fearlessly defend conservative values.

spk_0 The Heritage Foundation's Young Leaders Program equips young conservatives with the principal foundation and policy knowledge needed to stand up in a world increasingly hostile to conservatives.

spk_0 The Young Leaders Program is more than an internship, participants work right alongside heritage professionals. And they learn valuable workplace skills. They attend weekly policy briefings from heritage's top experts and have access to practical skill building workshops.

spk_0 Applications for the spring semester close October fits. So you have to hurry. Our nation's future depends on patriots like you spreading the word to make sure the next generation is equipped.

spk_0 Go to heritage.org slash live in today that's heritage.org slash L.E.V.I.N. paid for by the Heritage Foundation.

spk_0 Or ladies and gentlemen, there's two very big stories out there, additional the other stories and that is.

spk_0 That is Jack Smith, the former rogue so-called special counsel monitoring private phone calls, the Republican members of the Senate in the house.

spk_0 Now when you put that on top of what they did to Donald Trump Obama and the rest, you can see what we're dealing with here in America.

spk_0 They throw out all the words, all the cliches about authoritarianism and Hitler and all the rest. These people are extraordinarily dangerous and they're extraordinarily violent and they're getting worse and I want to talk about that.

spk_0 I want to talk about this guy running for Attorney General in Virginia. You've heard all about him now. I want to get into it more deeply.

spk_0 There's nothing new that I can report to you on this so-called negotiation involving Hamas and so forth other than to say, is I don't give another inch on anything.

spk_0 Don't agree to anything else. You made a deal. Now there's additional negotiation.

spk_0 Cattars involved, Egypt's involved, Cattar and Egypt back. These Cattars does back Hamas. Don't give another inch. Period.

spk_0 What did you say Rich? I couldn't hear you.

spk_0 We've got a lot more America and this very busy Monday we'll be right back.

spk_0 So they hidden bunker somewhere under the brick and steel of a non-descript building. We once again made contact with our leader Mark Lovein.

spk_0 Hello America. Mark Lovein here our number 877-3813811-877-3813811 just when you thought it couldn't get any worse.

spk_0 Look it's a bad day in America let's be honest with this I stuff and everything else.

spk_0 The Democrats pushing us to the brink of civil war.

spk_0 The new Democrat Confederates that's what they are. The new Democrat Confederates.

spk_0 The Federal Bureau of Investigation under Biden under Obama has been used to destroy Republicans.

spk_0 It's been used to try and destroy Donald Trump.

spk_0 And now we learned it's used to try and destroy Republican members of Congress.

spk_0 A Ladies and Gentlemen. This is what authoritarianism looks like. This.

spk_0 Senator Bill Hagerty of Tennessee at a press conference today about this extraordinaryly.

spk_0 Grotesque abuse of power. Cut 21 go.

spk_0 Thank you Senator Johnson and chairman Grassley thank you for your leadership in making this happen.

spk_0 This is an extraordinary revelation that just took place this afternoon.

spk_0 My colleagues and I found out all of us Republicans by the way that we were placed under investigation by this FBI under the Joe Biden FBI that was led.

spk_0 I presume by Jack Smith and his predecessors. This isn't the first time that it's happened though Senator Johnson just mentioned this.

spk_0 I served in the Trump transition team in Trump power in 2016. Senator Blackburn was vice chair of the transition committee then as we're probably a dozen or more members of Congress to think that we were all surveilled back then by the Obama FBI.

spk_0 This corruption to run deep runs deep and it's gone on for far too long.

spk_0 And the fact that it's happened here again the fact that they are looking at our records in 2023 sitting members of the United States Senate.

spk_0 Again the only thing that we have in common the only thing that common in this entire list is that we're all Republicans.

spk_0 They've decided to come out Russ. This is as partisan as it gets the FBI and the corruptions running there has to be cleared out.

spk_0 Thank God we have cash per tell and Dan Bangee know there. This has to be addressed. It has to be resolved. It needs to happen today.

spk_0 Cut 20 Senator Johnson go.

spk_0 This is outrageous what has happened. I just want to give you a timeline this. I think you've already got the the up to I sheet that shows the number of members of Congress that were targeted represented Kelly Sanders Graham,

spk_0 and I'm Hagerty Holly Sullivan, Tuberville myself, Senator Lomason Blackburn. This never was dated September of 2023.

spk_0 To put it all into context the Mar-Lago raid occurred in August of 2022.

spk_0 Jack Smith announced the indictments against President Trump in August of 2023.

spk_0 So this is almost two months later that they're they're casting this net this fishing fishing accident expedition against members of the Senate and the House.

spk_0 Yeah, I've been investigating this to send a grass. This doesn't surprise me, but it should shock every American of what the Biden administration has done.

spk_0 By the way, this is the first time I was targeted by the FBI under the Obama administration. The same thing happened to both Senator Grassley and I as part of the foreign foreign influence task force.

spk_0 We were giving a a briefing to try and convince us that the hundred Biden laptop was no big deal basically trying to throw us off the track.

spk_0 So this is major corruption. This being revealed inside the Obama and Biden Department of Justice FBI.

spk_0 Senator Marsha Blackburn of Tennessee cut 22 go what we know is this that the FBI under Joe Biden and under Barack Obama that they exercised activity that they had no authority to exercise.

spk_0 And as Senator Haggardy mentioned, we know what they did in 2016 to the Trump transition team. And now we find out that after the Marlowe after the indictment of President Trump, they surveil us people who support President Trump.

spk_0 Members who are all Republicans, but it shows you how out of control and rotten to the core and politicized the FBI had become and how they had absolutely no problem at all whatsoever with political weaponization.

spk_0 We appreciate the information we've gotten today. We look forward to further investigation on this.

spk_0 You believe this folks?

spk_0 You believe this and it's not the headlines on most news news stories. It's not the headlines. Some of the money reporting it.

spk_0 The Fox says FBI deputy director, Dan Bongino brief senators Lindsey Graham, Josh Holyron, Johnson, Marsha Blackburn and more today.

spk_0 On what has taken place here.

spk_0 It is, you know, folks, they use this January 6th to the Democrats and their thugs to violate the Constitution.

spk_0 You know, we don't believe in violence and riding and that sort of thing, but let me tell you something.

spk_0 When our government is involved in such activity, it is far more dangerous than anything that took place on January 6th.

spk_0 And this is what you have to look forward to in New York with a mandami.

spk_0 This.

spk_0 All bets are off now.

spk_0 We're living in an extraordinarily violent period where Jews aren't safe.

spk_0 Where the president isn't safe.

spk_0 Where people who are public and conservative aren't safe.

spk_0 That's what's going on in this country right now.

spk_0 With mayors and governors who are telling local and state law enforcement not to back up ice when ice is under attack when people are literally shooting at them and throwing rocks at them and surrounding them.

spk_0 Seems to me any cop should violate any order like that, whether you're federal, state or local.

spk_0 You have to come to this defense of your brothers and sisters under all circumstances.

spk_0 It might humble opinion.

spk_0 But you'll notice this is only in blue cities and blue states.

spk_0 There's no problem with deporting illegal aliens and in any of the red areas.

spk_0 You don't even hear about them. Do you? No. You don't even hear about them.

spk_0 But here we have the federal this guy Jack Smith needs to face the music.

spk_0 This guy needs to be punished through the Department of Justice.

spk_0 They're already investigating for his conduct.

spk_0 A very sinister saboteur undermining our system of government.

spk_0 They brought him in from the hagg.

spk_0 And it's amazing to me whose name do you not hear Mr. producer?

spk_0 The former attorney general, Merrick Garland.

spk_0 You don't hear a thing about him. He was the attorney general.

spk_0 None of this could have happened without him. Why is it that he avoids scrutiny by Congress?

spk_0 You ought not avoid scrutiny by the Department of Justice.

spk_0 But why is it that he avoids scrutiny by Congress?

spk_0 He was the White House hitman.

spk_0 Remember he was held the the taped interview of Joe Biden.

spk_0 Done by the special counsel investigating Biden and so forth.

spk_0 He came up with a phony defense that would not allow the release of that prior to the election in order to cover up for Biden.

spk_0 Same Democrat party that did cover up for Biden and his relative insanity.

spk_0 And this dangerous party is a dangerous party with Bernie Sanders, the Stalinist.

spk_0 This is this is trouble. Let's try. I'm just telling you now folks.

spk_0 Now, scheduled to come on as the great governor of Texas, Greg Abbott.

spk_0 Greg Abbott is something else. He really is fantastic.

spk_0 And he has sent his National Guard, I suppose, at the request of the president to both Chicago and Portland.

spk_0 We're going to delve into that. He also wanted to come on the program to talk about October 7th.

spk_0 So we'll try and get it all done. We'll be right back.

spk_0 Mark Lovane.

spk_0 Our society works because of the freedoms guaranteed by the First Amendment.

spk_0 One of the great governors of the country of Texas here, Governor Greg Abbott. How are you, sir?

spk_0 I am doing great. Mark, how you doing?

spk_0 I'm doing great and you're a great patriot. You really are because you see what's going on in these other states.

spk_0 Which is outrageous. They're like nullifying federal law.

spk_0 You know, you're trying to enforce federal law and the federal government was nullifying federal law and immigration.

spk_0 Here we have cities that have just announced we're going to have ice-free zones.

spk_0 We're not going to deport people. You've got governors backing them up.

spk_0 It's almost as if we're having a rerun in a weird way. The Civil War here that they're like breakaway cities and breakaway states.

spk_0 What's happening with the National Guard? But these judges are now stepping in.

spk_0 Well, it's a continuation of what President Trump talked about on the campaign trail.

spk_0 And that is a problem this dog in the Democrats is they support criminals more than the citizens who vote for those senators and representatives.

spk_0 It is outrageous because they're putting public safety at risk. They're putting lives at risk.

spk_0 They care more about the people who are here illegally than they care about their own citizens.

spk_0 But very important to what you're talking about right now as you're kind of suggesting.

spk_0 Listen, Texas stepped up and we're proud to help out the president with our National Guard.

spk_0 The elite Texas National Guard trying to ensure the safety of operations of federal employees, which the president is entitled to ensure.

spk_0 And that's why we are helping to deploy them to Illinois to Oregon to wherever the president needs them to make sure that the president is going to be able to carry out his function of executing the laws of the United States of America, which is all that ice is doing.

spk_0 But we have like this.

spk_0 You know, this is like reverse federalism. You know, it's the powers left to the states.

spk_0 The states don't get the grab the power of immigration away from a president.

spk_0 For instance, when Biden was in office, he refused to execute as he's required to under the Constitution or immigration laws.

spk_0 And there's Texas and other states having their friend for themselves and they're trying to shut you down.

spk_0 And we have the same party now that had open borders, pushed open borders.

spk_0 That saying that our new president has essentially no power to deport illegal aliens.

spk_0 And then we have some of their judges or one judge who's kind of a weirdo Republican, I guess.

spk_0 She wrote what's like an op-ed piece in a Washington Post going on.

spk_0 I said, what kind of lawyer is this? It's a mess is in a governor.

spk_0 Well, it's insane because listen to Democrats lost elections in a big way this last cycle.

spk_0 And now they're doubling down on the same reason why they lost the election.

spk_0 Americans want laws to be enforced. That includes immigration laws.

spk_0 Americans don't want illegal immigration into our country.

spk_0 They want to make sure that we have a legal process for immigration.

spk_0 They don't want criminals coming here, whether they be coming from other countries or coming from within our own cities.

spk_0 And they want a president who's going to stand up and enforce the law.

spk_0 As you pointed out, we had a president in Joe Biden.

spk_0 To refuse to enforce the immigration laws of the United States and Texas had to fin for ourselves and secure our own border.

spk_0 And now we have a president who's actually enforcing the law.

spk_0 And we have leftists, governors, progressive governors who were pushing back saying that they want these illegal immigration documentaries.

spk_0 And more importantly, they want to interfere with the president's ability to enforce the immigration laws of the United States.

spk_0 You know, Governor Abbott, when I look at that party, they're almost like on a kamikaze mission.

spk_0 You know, boys and girls, bathrooms and open borders.

spk_0 And now what they're doing with ICE and mandami and all the rest of it.

spk_0 This party, I mean, what the hell?

spk_0 Don't they want to get elected?

spk_0 Well, the nail in the coffin is mandami and kamikaze.

spk_0 And when he destroys New York, it's going to be the end of the Democrat world as we know it, which is going to be bad for New Yorkers.

spk_0 But it may be good in the long run for the United States because already in Texas, there have been so many Democrats who have realized that the Democrat party actually does not represent them.

spk_0 It's actually the Republican party.

spk_0 Go back and remember what election not looked like this last November.

spk_0 When president did something that had not been done since the 1800s, when almost every border county in the state of Texas, which had traditionally been blue, turn red.

spk_0 Because of very common sense principles.

spk_0 One, was securing the border.

spk_0 Two, is to stop illegal immigration.

spk_0 Three that you mentioned, Democrats, most Democrats don't want boys and girls sports.

spk_0 That's common sense.

spk_0 It's fairness, it's safety and security, which is the last issue.

spk_0 And that's public safety.

spk_0 It's Republican setting up fighting for public safety.

spk_0 It's Democrats fighting for criminals.

spk_0 For one is outrageous, but it is the death knell of their party.

spk_0 And yet, I don't know.

spk_0 They must not think so.

spk_0 I think this is the Democrat party fighting with itself and dragging the nation into this fight.

spk_0 Does that make sense to you?

spk_0 Well, Mark, listen, it's a continuation of what was taken place with Kamala Harris.

spk_0 And now you have all these, the governors of the three large Democrats states, California, Illinois, New York.

spk_0 They're battling to see who can be the most leftist.

spk_0 And what they have to do is to have any hope of getting any Democrat nominations, appeal to the progressive left, appeal to the people who are attracted to, mandami in New York.

spk_0 And so they're fighting for the very small sliver of the electorate out there, seemingly unaware that it is repelling.

spk_0 And antagonizing most of Americans and common sense Americans that I can tell you for a fact, common sense Texans.

spk_0 But Texas is a state that's a law and order state.

spk_0 And I think most states are law and order states.

spk_0 Most citizens of our country want law and order.

spk_0 They want public safety.

spk_0 They want elected officials to fight for them and fight for their safety, not to fight for illegal immigrants and the criminals who are harming their own citizens.

spk_0 You know, Governor, I'm not going to put you in a spot.

spk_0 But you know, when I think of presidential candidates going forward, I do think of you.

spk_0 I really do.

spk_0 I mean, it's the biggest of the Republican states.

spk_0 It's a very diverse state.

spk_0 I hear very little criticism of you.

spk_0 I mean, of course, from the left, but they don't count.

spk_0 And you've had quite a battle there with the Biden regime you did.

spk_0 And you're very supportive of this current administration.

spk_0 I see a lot of governors who really would make great presidents.

spk_0 Again, I'm not trying to put you on the spot.

spk_0 Has this crossed your mind or maybe being a running maid or something like that?

spk_0 So Mark, you are the great one.

spk_0 But on this issue, listen, I'm focused only on Texas right now.

spk_0 You do bring up a very important point though.

spk_0 And that is the Republican Party has a very long and strong bench.

spk_0 We have proven governors, other proven Republican leaders who are ready to make sure

spk_0 that the country remains on track as well as a more than capable vice president.

spk_0 And JD Bans, who's doing a fantastic job.

spk_0 So there will be a lot of...

spk_0 I want to hold you over.

spk_0 That music means I have a hard break.

spk_0 I want to get into a few more issues with you because you're doing a fantastic job

spk_0 helping the country and Texas, of course.

spk_0 We'll be right back.

spk_0 Our society works because of the freedoms guaranteed by the First Amendment.

spk_0 Every day Americans should be able to speak openly and honestly about family and traditional values

spk_0 without retribution from the government.

spk_0 And that's a principal pure talk proudly supports Daysponsor My Show,

spk_0 which allows me to stay strong behind the microphone every day and share the truth with you.

spk_0 Again, puretalk.com slash L-E-V-I-N.

spk_0 Make the switch folks, make it today.

spk_0 Mark the pin, the thunder on the right.

spk_0 Call in now, 877-381-381-1.

spk_0 We're here with a great governor of Texas, Greg Abbott.

spk_0 Governor Abbott, I know you wanted to talk a little bit today about the upcoming Second Anniversary of October 7th,

spk_0 the horrendous slaughter of the Israelis.

spk_0 And so I wanted to give you the floor a little bit to comment on that. Go right ahead, please.

spk_0 Oh, with an act of genocide, it was the largest attack on the Jewish people since the Holocaust.

spk_0 And the world must remember this.

spk_0 The world must remember those who were lost on our cover of the seventh.

spk_0 Those who have been lost in the worst sense, those who are being held hostage right now.

spk_0 And they must be released.

spk_0 And I'm hopeful about what President Trump is talking about, about the possibility of peace.

spk_0 And we need to recognize, you know, had not been for President Trump.

spk_0 Netanyahu, we wouldn't even be close to a possible agreement to end this horrific war that the world has really faced,

spk_0 but especially those in Israel, because they attacked by Hamas.

spk_0 But to achieve peace, Hamas must understand that all hostages must be released.

spk_0 And Mark, I got to tell you, I've seen some talk, but I haven't seen any action.

spk_0 It's time for Hamas step up to the negotiation plate and deliver action, deliver hostages, and get beyond just the talk.

spk_0 Every son, every daughter, every brother, every sister, every mother, every father, health captive, and Gaza must be returned home.

spk_0 It's that simple.

spk_0 Amen.

spk_0 You know, Governor, there's this horrific rise of anti-Semitism all over the world and in our country.

spk_0 And I know the President is doing everything he can, and he wants to do more to fight it.

spk_0 But what do you make of that?

spk_0 I mean, it's in every corner of our country right now.

spk_0 It's one of the most shocking developments that we've seen over the last couple of years.

spk_0 And I'm sure that it was on the rise some before October the 7th, but it's sure exploded after that.

spk_0 And we've seen deadly threat, dangers and communities across our entire country.

spk_0 And I wanted to make sure that we were doing everything we could in the state of Texas to make sure that we were fighting back against anti-Semitism, but also we're doing everything we can to keep places and people of faith protected.

spk_0 And so I've done things I create the Texas Holocaust genocide and anti-Semitism advisory committee.

spk_0 And they are my eyes and ears to let me know of anything to be concerned about and we've directly responded to concerns they raised.

spk_0 I've also, because of ongoing attacks against places of worship, I deploy the Texas Department of Public Safety to enhance security at places of worship like synagogue and our churches.

spk_0 But also, I know that you recall back when the protests were taking place on our college campuses.

spk_0 I saw what was going on at Columbia.

spk_0 I saw what was going on at UCLA.

spk_0 I saw what was going on at other campuses.

spk_0 And so when these protesters came to the University of Texas in Austin and they tried to pull that stunt here.

spk_0 I said not on my watch.

spk_0 Am I going to allow our campuses to be hijacked by these protesters?

spk_0 And I had the Texas Department of Public Safety there, National Guard, and at the moment they pulled out a tent to set it up.

spk_0 Now we had them arrested.

spk_0 And you know what we found?

spk_0 Most of the people who were arrested, they weren't students.

spk_0 They were paid protesters.

spk_0 And that's the problem we have around the country.

spk_0 All around the entire country are a bunch of paid protesters who are trying to gin up antagonism amongst our fellow Americans and at must end.

spk_0 You know, we have some foreign governments like Qatar that are pouring billions of dollars into our colleges and universities.

spk_0 I just feel more needs to be done about it.

spk_0 There's no reason that so much money needs to be poured into these colleges and universities by countries and so forth that have, in many respects, a hostile view of our country pushing sort of this Islamism and so forth and Marxism and so forth.

spk_0 What do you make of that?

spk_0 There has to be an end is what I make of it.

spk_0 And I'm proud to see what President Trump is stepping up to take action on it.

spk_0 And it must be police.

spk_0 It must be in it.

spk_0 And you know, you mentioned Qatar.

spk_0 If I recall correctly, they've been the home of some of the people who were involved in Hamas and some of the people who involved in the attacks.

spk_0 And so this is dangerous business that the president has alerted the country to and campuses across the country either have or must respond.

spk_0 By the way, how what do you make of the cowboys? That did pretty good games on there.

spk_0 I tell you what.

spk_0 So the had a good game on that.

spk_0 Be careful. I'm from Philadelphia. Be careful now.

spk_0 I know.

spk_0 And I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm not sorry that the Eagles lost this past weekend.

spk_0 Somehow I knew that.

spk_0 But, but listen, look at the points that cowboys have put up the last two games.

spk_0 Remember the game before this one, they put 40 points on Greenback.

spk_0 And so they may, they actually may have some offense showing up.

spk_0 If they can get their defense to play consistency consistently, they may turn out okay.

spk_0 I actually think it three, four players away from a really, really good team.

spk_0 But, but we'll see. I'm not rooting for him. You know, I'm like I say.

spk_0 But at least, you know, I hate to say this to my brothers and sisters in New York, but at least we're not there.

spk_0 I mean, you got the giants and the jets and between the two of them, I think they have one victory, right?

spk_0 Something like that. But I know one thing you would enjoy.

spk_0 I think America would enjoy it.

spk_0 And that is a playoff game between the Eagles and the cowboys.

spk_0 A lot of excitement across the entire country.

spk_0 And I'd be very excited about it.

spk_0 It's time is due for the cowboys to win that game.

spk_0 You know, when I first got on law school, I worked at Texas Instruments.

spk_0 And I worked there for about six, eight months.

spk_0 And then I went right into the Reagan administration.

spk_0 But it was a, is it still there? A great company and so forth?

spk_0 Yes.

spk_0 This and Texas Instruments is still there.

spk_0 They're adding more civic conductors.

spk_0 Little known fact, Texas has led the United States in civic conductor manufacturing and exports for more than 10 years.

spk_0 And that's before there's a new Texas Instruments, civic conductor, plant going up for $30 billion.

spk_0 There's a Samsung plant going up in just north of Austin for $44 billion.

spk_0 Texas will not be compared to other states and civic conductors.

spk_0 It's going to be Texas and one or two other countries in the entire world.

spk_0 Civic conductors are the lifeblood of all this artificial intelligence of the robotics.

spk_0 So actually the future of warfare, the future of spaces taken place in Texas because of the space-ex operations that are already here.

spk_0 And so we're saying, incredible excitement in the Senate Texas is about literally building out the future of our country and the future of the entire world.

spk_0 Last question, Governor, thank you for all this time. We much appreciate it.

spk_0 So the additional seats have been added. They're locked in. They're enshrined.

spk_0 Is that correct? How seats?

spk_0 Yes, so all the maps are drawn. The maps are passed. I signed them all.

spk_0 It's in litigation as we speak right now in a three-judge panel out in El Paso.

spk_0 And the case is going well but unable to predict the final result.

spk_0 But I believe that the maps should be appelled and there should be five additional Republicans in the United States Congress because of the registering maps that we passed in Texas.

spk_0 Well, great job. You're welcome here anytime, Governor. We really appreciate what you do.

spk_0 And you're really at the point of the spear on so many issues.

spk_0 God bless you, my friend. Be careful. Be safe.

spk_0 Thank you.

spk_0 All right. You too.

spk_0 I forget where I bumped into him. I think it was Christians United throughout, but I think that's where it was. He's really a good guy.

spk_0 Really good. And he's overcome so much.

spk_0 There he is jogging one day and there's apparently a storm and a major big branch of a tree falls on him and obviously paralyzes him from the waist down.

spk_0 A lot of people could give up when something like that happens.

spk_0 But he didn't give up and he truly is a great governor.

spk_0 You know, I look at Joey Jones on Fox.

spk_0 You know, look at Congressman Mass to have such great admiration for both those men and others too.

spk_0 And you know what's really strange is since I had my accent, I certainly didn't lose the limbs. I'm not comparing myself to that.

spk_0 My admiration is even grown much more because I know how difficult it must be.

spk_0 And by the way, when I watch these football players now, Mr. producer, and they get injured in these horrendous ways, their ligaments, their tendons, you know, their bones and everything, that is that I cringe.

spk_0 It's much harder to watch. I mean, I love it. I'm always going to watch it. But it's much harder to watch. And by the way,

spk_0 Giants and Jets fans in New York don't blame me. I'm not the owner. Don't blame me. I don't have control over this.

spk_0 I'm just stating the obvious. New York City is a great city. It deserves better than two teams. One that hasn't even won a game yet.

spk_0 The other one I think is one one. I'm just saying. And while I'm at it with the Philadelphia Eagles, that ref call, you know, I watched it over and over.

spk_0 It's stunk. Somebody should have thrown a flag and in a very minimum New York, you know, could have looked at it. But they didn't.

spk_0 Too bad.

spk_0 Oh, Mr. producer, trying to put me back to work here, I'm having too much fun. And I'll be right back.

spk_0 What? Love in?

spk_0 By the way, our ratings are killing it killing it. Thanks to you. Thanks to you. So in the Oval Office today, you heard it.

spk_0 The president said he never told NetNial to stop being negative. He's been great.

spk_0 So the reporting by Axio, so hip man, radical left wing, Mr. anonymous source,

spk_0 well, they run a correction. Of course not. Foneys and frauds. It's exactly what they are.

spk_0 And this this war on NetNial whose character is endless. It's constant because he's a winner.

spk_0 Because he's looking out for his people just like this war on Trump is endless and constant because he's a winner looking out for us.

spk_0 You know, some of these these days are very challenging in terms of what's going on in this country and around the world.

spk_0 But I always have hope because we've Donald Trump in the Oval Office really.

spk_0 Just a remarkable man smarter than every advisory has smarter than everybody that reports on.

spk_0 And I'm telling you now when when he leaves at Oval Office, it is going to be a sad, sad, sad day. Don't you think Rich?

spk_0 He's he's extraordinary. Absolutely extraordinary.

spk_0 It'll be a sad, sad day. So have a federal judge appointed by president Trump.

spk_0 And he doesn't know these people. You know, they're recommended to him. And this guy this gal was probably part of a deal. But apparently she's a Republican.

spk_0 Apparently she worked for a time in the prosecutor's office with Ken star who was one of my dear friends.

spk_0 And I don't care. She's an idiot. She doesn't know the law. She doesn't know the Constitution.

spk_0 And as I mentioned earlier this morning in my post, she wrote a piece I read like an op ed for the Washington Post.

spk_0 That's just ridiculous.

spk_0 The insurrection act may have to be triggered by the president to overcome all these these obstacles by these frauds and phonies and fools.

spk_0 As I told you earlier, it's been used multiple times. But of course the Democrats who are inciting violence who are inciting riots who are inciting attacks on federal law enforcement, the way they incited attacks on local law enforcement in 2020.

spk_0 The Democrat party, which is a violent party, that's its history from the Civil War to the civil rights battles and more.

spk_0 If the president uses the insurrection act like, oh my god, you can't do that.

spk_0 What is he a dictator? I don't know. It was John Kennedy a dictator. Lyndon Johnson George H. W. Bush.

spk_0 Abraham Lincoln. Thomas Jefferson. Cleveland.

spk_0 And all the others who used the the act over 20 times. Let me tell you something. What I saw taking place in Portland and Chicago and Chicago last night.

spk_0 There's no reason not to call the Marines. No reason not to.

spk_0 And for those out there listening, who think they know what they're talking about because they have a microphone in their mouth or a camera in their face. Pay attention to me. I'm going to educate you.

spk_0 Yes, the president has this power. Yes, it's an 1807 law. Yes, it's an exception to Pasic, Amitata. Yes, we used it when I was chief of staff to attorney general, me's in the Reagan administration.

spk_0 Yes, we used it to put down the Atlanta riots, the Atlanta prison riots, the prison riots. And it can be done. And it has been done many times. It's not frivolous.

spk_0 In fact, the president is could have pulled the trigger already. He's waiting. He's trying to resolve this. He's actually a man who's not a big believer in using overwhelming force until he must.

spk_0 Until he must.

spk_0 There's just too many stupid people on TV and raid. I'm sorry, ladies and gentlemen. It's just true. Too many ignoramuses.

spk_0 Or if you prefer ignoramuses, we'll be right back.

spk_0 If more than a year of war, terror and pain in Israel, there's still a great demand for basic humanitarian aid.

spk_0 Israel is a war with Iran and nation whose leaders have vowed to wipe Israel and even the United States off the map.

spk_0 In a necessary act of self-defense, Israel struck Iranian nuclear facilities, military targets and top leadership.

spk_0 Right now, the international fellowship of Christians and Jews is on the ground preparing large-scale distributions of lifesaving food, first aid and emergency kits, especially to Israel's most vulnerable people, the sick, the elderly children and families in great need.

spk_0 He's here. He's here.

spk_0 Now broadcasting from the underground command post.

spk_0 Deep in the bowels of a hidden bunker somewhere under the brick and steel of a non-distrib building.

spk_0 We've once again made contact with our leader Mark Levin.

spk_0 Hello America Mark Levin here our number 877-3813811-877-3813811.

spk_0 Our friends at the New York Post, Virginia's we're going to have Winston Earl Sears the candidate for governor, the current lieutenant governor on the program.

spk_0 She was actually scheduled a week or so ago to be on the program.

spk_0 Timing is very good but she will be on the program in about 15-20 minutes.

spk_0 This program has been loaded with guests because there's very big issues and we're happy to have Dinesh and governor Abbott and lieutenant governor Sears.

spk_0 Virginia's Democratic Attorney General candidate Jay Jones chillingly suggested that if more cops got killed after being stripped of legal protection, they would shoot fewer people.

spk_0 Corner to new claims from an ex colleague in the state legislature.

spk_0 Now he's a former Democratic representative in the Virginia House of delegates.

spk_0 He's already facing calls to drop out after Republican delegate Carrie Conner or as a pointer.

spk_0 Reveal 2022 text exchanges. I mean, there's a three years old.

spk_0 Three years old between them in which he suggested he would shoot then house speaker Todd Gilbert over eight off Hitler and said Gilbert and his wife should have to watch his fascist children die.

spk_0 They were five and three years old just so you know this guy is a mental case. He's sick. Sick.

spk_0 Shouldn't. Shouldn't be running for attorney generally should be running from the attorney general.

spk_0 Corner has come forward with new allegations against Jones telling the Virginia Scope Monday that during a 2020 conversation about qualified immunity.

spk_0 She told Jones that without the legal protection, police police officers will get killed.

spk_0 Well, maybe if a few of them died, that they would move on not shooting people not killing people Jones responded according to a conure.

spk_0 And Jones previously supported bills to remove qualified immunity.

spk_0 Well, he was still a member of the House of delegates.

spk_0 This guy should be running you know for a position with mom Donnie. Don't you think rich.

spk_0 Corner, a double down an statement to the post and asserted that Jones is unfit for office.

spk_0 She said my position is very clear. It is never acceptable to think that killing people is a justifiable method to achieve party changes period.

spk_0 Anyone that advocates for killing someone for disagreeing with them is not qualified to serve. Do you know not a single leading Virginia Democrat has told him to step down.

spk_0 Do you know not a single leading Democrat in the House of Representatives or the Senate has told him to step down at the DNC.

spk_0 Now Jones denied the new allegations of course. It's got quite the reputation.

spk_0 I didn't say this. I never believed and do not believe that any harm should come to law enforcement. He goes on.

spk_0 The post reached out to Jones for comment.

spk_0 No luck. Now Conure told the outlet that Jones pointed back to his stance on police and removing immunity protection during a heated phone call in 2022.

spk_0 When he said Gilbert that former Speaker of the House. My changes staunch pro gun stance.

spk_0 The fear is wife lost one other children. After their call ended, corner followed up with text to condemn his flippant suggestion.

spk_0 She said you were talking about hoping Jennifer Gilbert's child would die. She wrote to him. He responded. Yes, I've told you this before.

spk_0 Only when people feel pain personally do they move on policy.

spk_0 The controversial attorney general nominee is currently duking it out against conservative incumbent Jason Mayerus.

spk_0 I notice some of my friends in this business on TV are talking up this guy Jason Mayerus has a truly solid conservatance. He's not.

spk_0 He's a rhino. But he's better than this guy. There's no question better than Jones. Better than Jones.

spk_0 And I say that because of what they've done to a gentleman and his wife who owned a a private zoo.

spk_0 And he allowed a deputy of his a bureaucrat to basically destroy these people and destroy their business and destroy the zoo.

spk_0 With false allegations and bully tactics. And he wouldn't step in and stop it. That means something to me.

spk_0 So again, most of these commentators don't know what the hell they're talking about. He should be reelected.

spk_0 But mostly because his opponent is a mental case and dangerous. I'm I view dangerous.

spk_0 2021 roughly 50% of others in Virginia Beach cast about from Mayerus. It's attorney general.

spk_0 And of course the Republicans won led by young and now our friend Sears.

spk_0 She's running for governor and she's a good lady. She's a conservative. She is solid as a matter of fact.

spk_0 Now this shutdown I I told you most of you wouldn't feel it but some will but most of you won't.

spk_0 There's actually a great piece in the Wall Street Journal today by Michael Solan.

spk_0 He is a senior fellow at the Hudson Institute and he just says what's at stake in the government shutdown.

spk_0 Now I've told you before it's not really a shutdown of the vast majority of the government.

spk_0 But if the Democrats get their way, pandemic spending will become permanent and bankruptcy will get closer.

spk_0 So it's even worse than it's being discussed even by the Republicans in our media.

spk_0 It's not just that they want a couple hundred billion dollars to give healthcare to illegal aliens which they do.

spk_0 And to give healthcare to people who are more than able to work able body.

spk_0 But they won't put in 20 hours a week. They used to be the requirement to buy and get rid of it.

spk_0 No it's worse than that you see they want to make permanent all the pandemic spending that was supposed to be one time emergency spending to deal with the pandemic because the Democrats are our drunken Marxists.

spk_0 The drunken Marxists they will destroy this country.

spk_0 The CBO projected federal revenue of $43 trillion from 2018 to 2027.

spk_0 Later projections it estimated the 2017 tax cut of nearly one flat goes on but you get the point.

spk_0 There it is it's a good piece in the journal now.

spk_0 Back to this guy Mondami this guy Mondami is a sick bastard.

spk_0 He's a crazy nut job.

spk_0 He's a throwback you know they like to say they're so futurist now he's a throwback to the stolen era.

spk_0 Just like Bernie Sanders just like a they're throwback to the stolen us here that's why they're all cowards.

spk_0 It's not one damn one of these people will come on the show.

spk_0 Mr. Ridder so we put out the request again for Mondami.

spk_0 I'm serious let's do it.

spk_0 So here he is in a picture.

spk_0 He cozy's up as the front of the New York Post has it with the Ugandan politician who supported life sentences for homosexuals.

spk_0 This was only a matter of time if you're an Islamist you can't put up with this you favor the elimination of homosexuals.

spk_0 How many times did we see pictures of cranes in Iran?

spk_0 Hmm?

spk_0 Do the people in New York know what the hell is going on here seriously?

spk_0 I want freebies.

spk_0 Mom, Dami cheerfully cozy's up to Ugandan politician who supported life sentences for homosexuals.

spk_0 Now this probably won't affect most of the people who want to vote for him.

spk_0 So what?

spk_0 I want a free bath ride.

spk_0 Capitalism's unfair.

spk_0 Give me give me take from him and give to me.

spk_0 And she was not just in fact she was the architect of Uganda's anti-gay law.

spk_0 He's happy to be with her of course.

spk_0 Can I ask can I ask these newspapers a quote why the font so small I know you want to put a lot on the pages but my god you can barely see it.

spk_0 I don't care your age of your 2020 eyesight or what it is.

spk_0 I mean you really have to close one eye to read this stuff.

spk_0 You really do.

spk_0 Let's see here.

spk_0 Mandami.

spk_0 The oral front runner Zorhan Mandame flashed a bearding smile in a cringe worthy photo with a top Ugandan official who pushed harsh anti LGBT policies that included life imprisonment for gay people.

spk_0 Mandami met with Rebecca Yabba Dabba in July during a break from his campaign.

spk_0 So these aren't things that happen you know when he was 12 seven years ago.

spk_0 No they're all recent.

spk_0 I get nowhere she stood yes you do a whole what do you keep lying about everything you hate Jews you hate gays.

spk_0 Yes you hate capitalism you hate America you hate cops.

spk_0 Be honest.

spk_0 He met with her in July doing a break in his campaign trail.

spk_0 After winning the Democrat primary included a lavish celebration of his recent nuptials.

spk_0 And he secluded Ugandan compound owned by his family this is so sick.

spk_0 This is so sick.

spk_0 Delighted to meet with Zorhan Mandame including mayor of New let's see incoming mayor of New York City.

spk_0 Good luck in the next phase of elections she said.

spk_0 And then there's a photo of Zorhan Mandame and his Marxist bastard father and Zorhan's let's see as he returns to New York after his traditional.

spk_0 Traditional wedding in Kampala in Kampala.

spk_0 And there you have it I'll be right back.

spk_0 March.

spk_0 Love in.

spk_0 With Donald Trump back in office one of his biggest adversaries top Democrat Dick Durban of Chicago is leading the charge to derail President Trump's agenda at every turn.

spk_0 And now Senator Durban has a new scheme a government take over of your credit card right now Americans have thousands of credit card options all with equal strong security.

spk_0 But Durban's plan could result in less security that means more risk for your credit your identity and your financial future.

spk_0 Durban's bill isn't about helping consumers it's a giveaway to corporate megastores which could shift costs on to you while putting your rewards and fraud protections in jeopardy.

spk_0 We've seen Durban's failed policies before his last big banking regulation back fired leading to higher costs and fewer benefits for American families tell Republican senators stop Durban's government take over of your credit card before it's too late learn more at guard your card dot com that's guard your card dot com paid for by the electronic payments coalition.

spk_0 The stations heard all over the country this program is over 400 outlets you know some people count stations that really can't be heard were heard on all of them and that includes all throughout the coming wealth of Virginia.

spk_0 And the lieutenant governor is when some Earl Sears she's been fantastic she's a solid conservative she is a marine and she's running for governor now and of course there's a big scandal going on in Virginia.

spk_0 And when some and it involves the attorney general candidate for the Democrats and yet the governor's twirl candidate and this is crucially important race she is she is milling mouthing the whole issue she will not condemn this guy who basically was urging the murder of the former speaker of the House of Representatives and a spam burger has basically milling mouth that she is no principles does not have a right to do that.

spk_0 She no thank you mark for having me and hello to all of your listeners this is the state unfortunately apparently of the Democratic party and I noticed that our senator Tim Cain said well this is not the usual for J Jones and his character and so he still stands by him what in the world.

spk_0 J Jones who's running to be our attorney general of our Greg Commonwealth advocated for murder murder for the then speaker a Republican his opponent and then if that weren't enough he doubled down later on and said yeah and his two kids should be killed too.

spk_0 And you know instead of saying you know I'm young I'm stupid I shouldn't have done that I was trying to make a joke and badly and I know I should know better because I'm an attorney I'm an attorney I should know better I'm an officer of the court no he doubled down and now he give some you know apology but then did you notice Mark not too long after he went back to and by the way this is a faction of the Trump party.

spk_0 Yeah right.

spk_0 And Trump and Trump said there are those that all of you out the window and all my opponent Abigail Bamburger was running for governor of our great Commonwealth said well she was disgusted and and upset about all of this and urged him to make it about what your all is that all you are and murder is common your disgusted and upset no character these people.

spk_0 What what is amazing to me about your opponent is she's a fraud she pretends she's a moderate a center she's a radical she says let's not she didn't want to talk about Jones anymore she doesn't want to talk about boys and girls bathrooms anymore she doesn't want to talk about anything that she actually supports like the attorney general like boys and girls bathrooms and she just wants to move on she thinks she's going to slide by doesn't she.

spk_0 That's what she thinks but of course we're not going to let her and with the help from your listeners if they could help me by sending along some funds we can really really make another dent in this race and so they would go to win some sears calm then we could really use that support.

spk_0 Let me tell you this is all where he had said this is Jay Jones our attorney general candidate from the Democratic side he said well we needed to defund the police and get rid of their qualified immunity now you know that I support our police because I'm not stupid who are we going to call who's going to come rescue us and these are the men who are in law enforcement and department.

spk_0 Well, once we have a lousy connection I hear what you're saying this guy doesn't want immunity for police office as a matter of fact he says more them die then then maybe those shoot less people let's let's Mr producer let's try and get a better line real quickly because we only have a few more minutes with her.

spk_0 She's a very dynamic candidate she would be a great governor and of course the Democrats if she were liberal they'd be slapping all over her right because we haven't had a black woman governor in the Commonwealth of Virginia really the heart of the old South during the Confederacy and they don't want it to be a Republican either they don't want it to be a Republican well putting all that side she really is solid she's conservative she's fiscally conservative she's right on all these other issues and so forth.

spk_0 So of course the Democrats are trying to paint her as an extremist they've got tons of money I don't know where they get it they always have tons of money how we're doing Rich working on it okay well we hope to have her back soon but that was I was going to let it go but it was getting too bad the line so hopefully we'll have what's that.

spk_0 Alright she's going to call us back as soon as I have her we'll put her on but this guy running for attorney general he's basically been handed his jobs because his parents are apparently political powerhouses in the district that he used to represent in the state assembly and now he wants to be the attorney general all these people even the lieutenant governor candidate she's an Islamist I mean this is a real clown show these three statewide candidates on the Democrat party side.

spk_0 And you see this more and more either absolute crazy leftist Marxist Islamist or they pretend to be moderates because like she'll come out of the CIA or something like that and you just assume well if you're there you must be concerned it's not true.

spk_0 That's not how it works.

spk_0 And Virginia is Virginia has to become a blue state that can be winnable and young can demonstrate that.

spk_0 Alright.

spk_0 Alright when some we got one minute left what do you want to tell America.

spk_0 I need your help go to win some tears dot com and support by campaign as Virginia goes generally goes the rest of the country and we've got to make a statement here we've got a plant our flag and take a stand we're going to take a stand for righteousness for common sense we must not have boys and girls bathrooms.

spk_0 We must not have men in our girls locker rooms undressing is happening in Virginia it'll come to a state near you we must continue to create jobs in Virginia and we must make sure that we are safe and secure in our taxes are low my opponent Abigail spam burger is going to undo all of that we need your help in Virginia.

spk_0 Amen and we'll put that on all of our social sites as well. Good luck and be safe God bless you.

spk_0 Mark Lovane on the frontline of liberty call it now a 7 7 3 8 1 3 8 1 1.

spk_0 I have in front of me a an audio clip list with a Chicago mayor calls ice in the people supporting them extreme right.

spk_0 Who refused to accept the results of the civil war how sick is this your Pritzker who bought himself a governorship ice is going after black and brown people he says it's over and over and over again.

spk_0 And just so you know not all but most of ice is black and brown.

spk_0 And of course Pritzker is white and fat and stupid.

spk_0 Then we have Tammy Duckworth you never hear of but she came for and she said Trump's using Gestapo tactics in Chicago got all this.

spk_0 Democrats are fine Charlie Kirk was murdered a month ago president of the United States as candidate is present was almost murdered and they just keep at it they just keep going.

spk_0 The FBI under them one after Republican senators Republican House members one after a presidential candidate we've never seen anything like this ever ever it gets worse and worse and worse the more that's uncovered.

spk_0 But they just keep at it they don't give a damn.

spk_0 Let's see here.

spk_0 This Caitlin Collins at CNN is really repulsive.

spk_0 She's another one who used to be sort of a conservative a conservative reporter.

spk_0 I believe she used to work for the daily caller and Katarelsen.

spk_0 But then again there must be something in the water I don't know.

spk_0 Let's take a look at this one cut 15 go.

spk_0 But no little official that you can point to that if said we need the National Guard.

spk_0 I spoke to the police chief Portland last week he said that the president's claims just don't match up with what's up.

spk_0 So I just stop a second why would what kind of a question is this.

spk_0 Why isn't she questioning the police chief in Portland what his his comments are.

spk_0 Instead she uses the police chief in Portland who's a nut in my humble opinion and applies it against the president.

spk_0 This is all this woman does.

spk_0 I'm sure she wins some kind of journalistic award but that means nothing.

spk_0 This is why the American people hate the media love the first amendment but hate them go ahead.

spk_0 I'd encourage you as a reporter to go on the ground and to take a look at for yourself because there's been many.

spk_0 No no no she just going to quote Democrats that's all.

spk_0 That's all she's not going to go and look on the ground.

spk_0 No no she's not that courageous go ahead.

spk_0 Now I press in this room but independent journalist some of whom will be inviting to the White House very soon to share their stories.

spk_0 Because they have been in the middle of these riots and they have witnessed the anarchy that is taking place night after night.

spk_0 It's on video you should play it on your show you have a great opportunity in prime time on CNN to show your audience.

spk_0 Yeah but you're probably talking to partisan Democrat officials who are opposed to everything this president does.

spk_0 You should also ask the people who live in Portland.

spk_0 We've actually heard from many members of the community who have said that this is complete civil disobedience.

spk_0 It's a mess. It's been loud. It's been troubling for neighbors in the community who are just trying to live peacefully.

spk_0 And these people are not in there to peacefully protest. They are there to cause mayhem and have it.

spk_0 Notice how this Caitlin Collins keeps turning eruptor because she has so many brilliant things to say that some Democrat told her she's an idiot.

spk_0 She's an idiot.

spk_0 And here we have Zora Hamandami but he's going to save you $8 billion in New York. How's he going to do that?

spk_0 Well let's see. Cut 17 go.

spk_0 When it comes to free buses each rider will save over $2,000 a year. That's $1.3 billion a year for all riders.

spk_0 When it comes to universal childcare we're speaking about $22,200 a year which together is five and a half billion.

spk_0 Okay stop. This is such a schmuck.

spk_0 So who's going to pay for it? Somebody pays the billionaires. They aren't going to be any billionaires. They're leaving.

spk_0 Remember? You're going to Florida.

spk_0 And when it comes to a rent freeze we are speaking about $1,750 saved every single year.

spk_0 And together that amounts to more than $1.7 billion in its first year.

spk_0 These are the figures that add up in the lives of New Yorkers. These are the figures that together would save the people of this city more than $8 billion.

spk_0 I don't know what hit us here.

spk_0 Am I clear now? Okay good. But I want the audience to know. Our main line was killed. Our backup line was hit.

spk_0 I think we're under attack Mr. Rich.

spk_0 So we don't know what happened but we're back.

spk_0 Mr. producer took the North Korean equipment and rubber band and some chewing gum.

spk_0 But nonetheless we're going to take a good look at this tomorrow. Right Rich?

spk_0 Yeah we have to because these things don't just happen. The main line was dead.

spk_0 The backup line was screwed up. As far as I know we only have about what is it? 15 minutes left.

spk_0 We could get hit again.

spk_0 I'm not kidding. We could get hit again. That's what's going on here.

spk_0 We're live and national.

spk_0 Yes we be.

spk_0 So when I was rudely interrupted by whomever.

spk_0 Listen ladies and gentlemen, if everything could be free and just save money and everything would be great.

spk_0 Don't you think everything would be free?

spk_0 Has this not been tried in human history?

spk_0 Now here's what happens when you give away free things you run out of them.
