Mark Levin Audio Rewind - 12/31/24

On Tuesday's Mark Levin Show, Some in the media have quickly claimed that the Republicans are for Russia and compared the arrest of Maria Butina to Alger Hiss. No, the Republicans aren’t facing an Alger Hiss moment. Hiss was an American working for the FDR administration, Butina was a Russian spy assisting the Russians. Also, President Trump is now readying a plan for $12 billion to help farmers affected by the administrations tariffs. If tariffs work government should put it on everything and make it 50%. A tariff is a tax on the American people and an attack on capitalism. The administration should pull together our allies and focus on true enemy who is stealing our technology – China. Why would this administration tax the American people to punish another country? Do you hear how irrational that sounds? Why are certain industries protected and not others? Welfare for farmers doesn't make America great again. America First is all about liberty and private property rights and capitalism Tariffs destroy jobs in all industries despite protecting certain industries. Socialist like Bernie Sanders support these policies which is not America first. This isn't about supporting Trump or not or whose political team you’re on, it’s about understanding economics so we don't go through another depression. Learn more about your ad choices.

On Monday’s Mark Levin Show, President Trump is the most investigated man in American history by every level of government and every news operation, and yet they have nothing on him. The constant assault on Trump and the absolute disrespect for the office of the President is unwarranted. It’s a clear effort to destroy him and anyone associated with him, and it’s an attack on the American people who voted for him. The media isn’t the enemy of the people but some reporters are when they distort the news. They don’t believe in freedom of the press; they believe in propaganda of the press. Also, the FISA court needs to be abolished and replaced because it has failed miserably. FISA judges are supposed to be more than a rubber stamp, but that’s exactly what they were in issuing warrants to spy on Trump. It was a plan concocted by the Hillary Clinton campaign which led to the Steele dossier, which was then used to acquire the warrants. What the FISA court has done is an absolute scandal. Finally, Mark reflects on his interview with Mike Huckabee on Life, Liberty, and Levin. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

On Friday's Mark Levin Show, President Trump’s former lawyer Michael Cohen taped his conversations with Trump discussing payments to an ex-playboy model. This raises very serious ethical issues under attorney client privilege. Why is the media so interested in Trump’s sex life? They never had interest in Bill Clinton or JFK's sex life. Also, the NFL National Anthem protests are phony and a pathetic joke. Shelby Steele says that these NFL protests are fruitless and that the oppression of black Americans is over with. This is not a civil rights movement. This isn’t about social justice or equality, it’s an unwanted spectacle. Later, the media and Democrats say Trump shouldn’t meet with Vladimir Putin because he's a murderous thug yet they applaud our membership of the United Nations which is filled with genocidal dictators like Castro, Abbas, and Hamas. Finally, the press are psychopaths bringing in former government officials and academics to criticize Trump and reinforce their own demagoguery. Irrespective of Trump’s much stronger stance on Russia than his predecessors. Statist progressivism is a lie infecting every corner of our country including the media.

On Thursday's Mark Levin Show, actor Mark Duplass told his liberal/progressive twitter followers to follow Ben Shapiro to hear how the other side thinks and they turned on him, forcing him to delete his tweet and issue an apology. Why are we shocked? This is how the left works, if you don't believe their way they will sabotage or neutralize you. They don't believe in dialogue, they believe in totalitarianism. They don’t support individualism or independent thinking, it’s their way or the highway. This isn't about debate or engagement, it’s about the iron fist. Then, we wonder as Jake Tapper and CNN would: is John Brennan an old Soviet or Russian plant? Using the pseudo-media's logic, the Russians must have something on Brennan, otherwise, why would he behaving this way? Also, why did Barack Obama pick John Brennan, a former supporter of Communist Party candidate Gus Hall, to be his CIA Director? His constant comments attempting to tear down President Trump have been unrelenting and vicious. John Brennan must be the most popular person in the Kremlin. Learn more about your ad choices.

On Wednesday's Mark Levin Show, there’s no evidence that Vladimir Putin will take any action against the U.S or our allies because of the way President Trump speaks. Despite whatever was said, Russia knows that Trump would act because he has acted in the past. Mike Pompeo and John Bolton are not pushovers. These are men who are hawks and they know the cold war and are not afraid of Putin. Putin is evil just like China, North Korea, and Iran and this administration knows it. He may not give the best speech or press conference in the world but look at his policies, they are solid. No evidence that Trump does not take Russia seriously, quite the contrary. Also, some politicians and pundits on the Right have been mimicking the Left’s talking points in slamming Trump for his comments at Monday’s press conference with Putin. Conservatives should be defending this president, not in every respect but defending him where he deserves to be defended. Finally, the left wants free healthcare, free college, and now free money with universal income. The government is not free to reimagine how we fundamentally earn money via our social and political arrangements, as Barack Obama suggests. Learn more about your ad choices.

On Tuesday's Mark Levin Show, yesterday we said the President deserved criticism but that's not what he got from the media; he got 'Pearl Harbor'. 'Kristallnacht', and 'Treason'. Trump's critics have gone way further than anything Trump ever said. But if we look back at history, President Franklin Delano Roosevelt sold us out in the Helsinki Accord and his closest advisor Vasili Mitrokhin was a Soviet spy, yet the Democrats love FDR. Ford and Carter also had embarrassing moments with the Kremlin as well. Professor Paul Kengor of Grove City College, weighs in on the historical perspective of the US and Russia. He explains how the Left has always been weak on Russia and sometimes cozy with its communist ideology during the time of the Soviet Union. Also, the Democrats are in no position to criticize Trump, and of course Trump’s actions on Russia stand head and shoulders above Barack Obama's efforts. He’s arming the Ukrainians, which Obama refused to do. The Poles and the Czechs are getting their defense equipment and Patriot missiles, which Obama pulled. Crimea wasn’t annexed when Trump was president. It was annexed when Obama was president. Finally, Fox News Host and Author Judge Jeanine Pirro discusses her new book "Liars, Leakers, and Liberals: The Case Against the Anti-Trump Conspiracy." Learn more about your ad choices.

On Monday’s Mark Levin Show, Russia did interfere with the 2016 election under the Obama administration, so why is President Trump taking more heat than Obama? The left is attacking Trump for not confronting Vladimir Putin in Helsinki, but was fine with Obama knowing about Russian interference and not doing anything about it. Trump is a victim of Russian interference, yet he is the target of a special counsel for collusion when the Obama administration should be investigated. President Trump has been tougher on Russia than Obama, Clinton, or either Bush yet he’s called weak by the media for not attacking Putin – is this a joke? Also, Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez called Israel the occupier of Palestine, only to later admit she knows nothing about the issue. This is the new face of the Democrat party according to Tom Perez. Later, Shelby Steele joined Mark on Live, Liberty, and Levin to discuss racial tension in America. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

On Friday's Mark Levin Show, if we want to be free we need to have a free press and a free economic system. Who is damaging freedom of the press? The media or the President? The President is not compelled to take questions from a press that is ideologically hostile to him, like CNN and Jim Acosta. CNN has an obligation to reveal itself as an outlet of the Democrat party. CNN has surrendered its news operation yet they still pretend to be one. George Bush and Ronald Reagan, were trashed by the likes of Walter Cronkite, Dan Rather, and others of the same ilk. The press has never been freer than today, that’s why we have the conga line of pundits on cable news pretending to be journalists. Then, Robert Mueller indicted 12 Russians today. This should be handled as a counterintelligence matter not a criminal matter, because we can't get our hands of these former Putin operatives. Will Mueller be indicting Barack Obama for interfering in the Israeli election? This Russian indictment is dumb, these 12 conspirators will never see the inside of an American Court.  Afterwards, we're talking trade which is as relevant as the media. Raising the price of toasters and washing machines for Americans will only allow for less of them to be sold in the US. Blue Collar workers will be affected negatively by this. We are subsidizing price gouging and losing 100k jobs to protect 25k jobs. It’s not America first to raise taxes on American citizens! Learn more about your ad choices.
