Mark Levin Audio Rewind - 12/31/24

On Thursday's Mark Levin Show, removing 2,500 non-combat personnel from Afghanistan that weren't even in harm's way was not necessary. The United States didn't have a battalion of Marines on the ground because the Afghans were fighting for their country and our men and women were in intelligence and support roles. The 2,500 Americans withdrawn from Afghanistan prematurely were at no greater risk in an impenetrable base built by the soviets than if they were in downtown Chicago. The outcome in Afghanistan was as good of an outcome as one might expect until President Biden ruined it. Then, the Biden Administration is soft and allowing the Islamonazi regime in Tehran to do whatever they want. Trump was choking off the economy in Iran so they couldn't enrich uranium. Now, due to Biden's recklessness, the very same sons and daughters Biden says he wants to protect, will be more endangered than ever.  There has been more death on this planet from totalitarians in the last 100 years than at any other time in history. Later, Biden argued that 1 trillion dollars over 20 years had to stop yet he's signed away multiple trillions over the past eight months. Biden is a liar that doesn't care. We know this from a newly-released confidential memo from July where the State Department indicates that Biden did in fact know that Afghanistan would collapse.   Learn more about your ad choices.

On Wednesday's Mark Levin Show, President Joe Biden walked away from the media today, taking no questions. Vice President Kamala Harris is missing in action, and Speaker Nancy Pelosi praised the withdrawal from Afghanistan. The military leaders also gave a press conference confirming that they had not planned for all possible outcomes in Afghanistan. In 20 years, the Taliban hasn't taken action on the U.S because we were engaging them there. Now they're in control. Then, Donald Trump sat for an interview with Sean Hannity and made it clear that Biden is a disaster, endangering America, and turning his back on Afghanistan. Trump said that what Biden did is America's greatest embarrassment behind the border crisis - two areas where Biden inherited Trump's successes. Later, Biden threatened Republican governors in his press conference today. He completely avoided any questions and acted as if nothing was happening in Afghanistan. Afterward, former Nevada Attorney General Adam Laxalt joins the show to discuss his announcement to run for the US Senate. Laxalt highlighted how Harry Reid's hand-picked candidate is stopping progress in Nevada. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

On Tuesday’s Mark Levin Show, one of several terrorists released by President Obama is the current leader of the Taliban's takeover in Afghanistan. This is one of the most appalling surrenders by any superpower, ever. President Joe Biden has endangered our country as it now faces the threat of terrorism like it hasn't since 9/11. The Taliban are the ideological equivalent of early-century barbarians. What is the United States giving the Taliban in these negotiations to get Afghans to the Kabul airport? Then, support for the withdrawal plummets as the Taliban has taken control. One poll indicates that upon learning that the Taliban would regain power, most people no longer support a withdrawal from Afghanistan. Later, the Donald Trump critics chant that Trump negotiated this withdrawal, what they fail to recognize is that Trump's approach was principled and based on making progress in Afghanistan, not the chaos that's occurring now. Trump was firm and always willing to cut a deal, but he never would have surrendered leaving contractors, and civilians behind. Afterward, James Madison's writings on property rights are clear, yet the Supreme Court and Joe Biden disagree. In the same way we protect our private property we must protect our own bodies. The government must not be the entity that decides what happens to one's own property; the individual's liberty is their own to protect and utilize as they wish. Madison concluded that a government that doesn't sacredly guard private property rights is therefore putting it in peril. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

On Monday’s Mark Levin show, President Biden has just reversed 20 years of enormous progress in Afghanistan, which was not a 20-year war. The US has been supplying air power and intelligence to the Afghan forces since 2014. The Taliban is not known to be one of the world’s strongest armies, but when Biden makes the mistake to end all of that abruptly you get an emboldened enemy who didn't have an air force but might certainly have one now, given the number of helicopters and equipment left behind by Biden's rapid troop withdrawal. Biden's response was dishonest, he blamed Donald Trump, and it was outrageously political. The disastrous scene caused by Biden's petulance is something we'd never seen during Trump's tenure. Allies around the world are watching and surely this does not inspire confidence. Then, Sen. Tom Cotton, a veteran of the Afghanistan war, joins the show to explain why Biden made such a strategic blunder leaving Americans behind enemy lines. Cotton added that irrespective of your thoughts on the withdrawal we must recognize that it was gravely incompetent to do it this haphazardly and against the advice of all military leaders. Later, Col. Richard Kemp (Ret.) commander of the United Kingdom's military forces in Afghanistan, calls in to articulate that the execution of this US withdrawal is a disaster. The morale of the brave men of the fledgling Afghan military has collapsed more devastatingly than the country itself; what Biden's done is a disgrace. Afterward, Sean Parnell, a retired Army infantry captain, and veteran of Afghanistan calls in to highlight how Biden hasn't even spoken with the Prime minister of Pakistan about the exfiltration and this blame falls squarely on the 'suits, not the boots.'

On Friday's Mark Levin Show, Larry O’Connor of WMAL fills in for Mark. The military did its job in Afghanistan, but Joe Biden and military leadership was never clear on what the end game was, just like how Biden ruined the roll-out of the vaccine that Trump handed over to him. was the only one that took a firm position on withdrawing troops from Afghanistan, but now Biden hastily and thoughtlessly pulled out and the Taliban is taking over while Biden is pleading with them to spare our Embassy. Then, faith family and what the founders stood for is what gives us all hope to rise up against injustice and to stand for liberty. Something learned from Andrew Breitbart was how to affect the culture because that is exactly where the left creeps in. This is precisely what Mark Levin points out in American Marxism, but the best part is he provides the blueprint for how Americans can fight back. Later, school boards in Loudon County have launched a movement of parents fighting against critical race theory and transgender policies. Those that defend traditional, biological pronouns are chastised for not being woke. They claim it's about the prevention of bullying, but it's really about grouping children the way they'd prefer to group them.  Also, the teacher's union in Florida is reporting to news outlets that four Broward County teachers have died in one day. The fourth person wasn't even a teacher, but facts seem to have little value to the left within the teacher's union. This is an attempt to paint teachers as victims of Governor Ron DeSantis’ policies because the county is currently in a heated debate with the governor over mask mandates for students.

On Thursday's Mark Levin Show, seven months ago the US had approximately 7,000 troops in Afghanistan, the war was over and the troops were training the Afghans and providing air cover. President Biden reduced their air cover and slashed the number of troops in the region, now he is pleading with the Taliban to not attack our embassy because, as expected, they are taking over. The Taliban is executing anyone with an affiliation to the US military. Now the US is sending another 3,000 troops to rescue our civilians in the embassy. Our enemies in China, North Korea, Russia, and around the world saw Biden's miscalculation and weakness. China will feel emboldened to invade Taiwan, Putin will be emboldened to reclaim Ukraine and the United States will be humiliated even further. General Jack Keane calls in to explain that this withdrawal is problematic and that Biden knew it would endanger the American civilians left behind. He added that the geopolitical ramifications all equal a net political gain for Iran. Keane reiterated that the US pulled out all combat troops in 2014 and only left enough troops to train the Afghani forces. Then, the $5.5 billion boondoggle known as the infrastructure spending bill is the brainchild of Bernie Sanders and is ripped from the pages of the Soviet Union playbook. In the 1936 USSR Constitution, Stalin wrote that citizens had the right to work and the right to rest and leisure, as well as rest homes, sanitariums, medical services, and universal education through the university level. So much of this has been mirrored in the infrastructure bill to expand government services. This will make the US mostly socialist and push our public education to be more of an indoctrination system. Later, the United States' southern border is the biggest super spreader event in history because Biden is allowing immigrants open access to America. Migrants that have tested positive are being bussed into other cities and nothing is being done to stop it. If this isn't an impeachable offense then what is? Finally, Peter Schweizer calls in to highlight the media's obfuscation of Hunter Biden's latest scandal. Schweizer pointed out that Hunter’s latest video is problematic because it's a Joe Biden problem, not just a Hunter Biden problem. Some emails show that Hunter was paying his father's bills. Did anyone pay taxes on these gifts? Will the Manhattan District Attorney look into this? Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

On Wednesday's Mark Levin Show, there's a coup taking place, an un-armed insurrection in the Capitol by the Democrat Party. As Thomas Jefferson said, this is the tyranny of the legislature. Congress doesn't have the power to attack America's sovereignty or to open our borders, brainwash our children and promote racism. Everything going on in Washington DC is an extraconstitutional subterfuge. The Democrat Party is an evil political institution that protected slavery and creates the Jim Crow laws all while being shielded by their propagandists in the media. The once-great Republican Party is filled with quislings led by Mitch McConnell and every single baby born will now have a debt of $750,000 as soon as they are born as a result of today's capitulation on the infrastructure bill. Then, President Biden doesn't care about America, he is a selfish street-thug politician supported by an unqualified vice president who's failing miserably at the border, a power-hungry Senate Majority Leader using New York to guide all of America, and a Speaker of the House who's a San Francisco psycho! Later, transgenderism and critical race theory are not government education, it's Democrat Party indoctrination. Children are being taught to be American Marxists with disdain for this country and this is how you change and destroy a nation. Afterward, the CDC is misreporting the infection count coming out of Florida, this was subsequently reported by the media as a new record high. of course, the correction of those numbers was never reported.

On Tuesday’s Mark Levin Show, things are now happening in this country that will affect you directly. 19 Republicans in the Senate have surrendered to the American Marxist movement, with Mitch McConnell leading the way. How can McConnell be the Republican leader if the majority of Senate Republicans voted against the bill? The $1.2 Trillion infrastructure bill is filled with pork and pet projects, empowers Democrats, and expands government even more. Every Republican that voted for this bill has now paved the way for trillions of additional Democrat spending.  Later, Philip Klein of National Review calls In to discuss the infrastructure bill and the failure of Republicans to stop it. Also, there isn’t any difference between the various Democrat Marxist movements and the media. The climate movement has nothing to do with clean air or water, and everything to do with de-growth and anti-capitalism. The Green New Deal is exactly what Thomas Jefferson was referring to when he described tyranny of the legislature. Finally, Andrew Cuomo resigned as governor of New York, forced out not because of the nursing home deaths he caused but because of a damning report of sexual harassment. How does Biden keep escaping his sexual harassment scrutiny? Rep. Lee Zeldin calls in to give his take on Andrew Cuomo and the next governor of New York. Learn more about your ad choices.
