The Best Of Mark Levin - 10/18/25

On Thursday's Mark Levin Show, a devastating helicopter crash in the Hudson River claimed the lives of all six aboard: three children, their parents, and the pilot. In a separate incident at Reagan National Airport, two planes collided when a taxiing jet clipped the wing of a stationary aircraft carrying several congressmen. These events underscore a troubling pattern of recent aviation mishaps. Additionally, a new mandate requires all individuals illegally present in the U.S. to register, a policy facing pushback from the left, who argue it’s unjust. Critics on the left accuse Trump of lawlessness, while U.S. District Judges, like Judge Indira Talwani, challenge his actions, raising questions about their own grasp of legal principles. Afterward, in June 2024, Levin expressed concerns about President Biden's mental sharpness, highlighting cognitive decline as a significant problem. How could the media observe Biden's behavior and only now claim there was a cover-up? The authors of these Biden-focused books are the same media figures who concealed this issue. Also, The SAVE Act will stop illegals from voting without identification and registration. It is very important and good that it was passed, proving that Trump kept his promise to the American people. The Tax cuts are just as important as the SAVE Act as it will help the economy improve. Hakeem Jeffries claims that Republicans are trying to destroy the economy. He stated that Trump is cutting part of Medicaid which will take away health benefits to millions of people. The Medicaid program has been used and abused by people who are Illegal and should not be here in the first place, and people committing fraud by using the names of their dead relatives to get benefits or income. Another example would be Elon Musk and DOGE discovering millions of taxpayer dollars wasted on unemployment claims for fake people, stopping them once and for all.  Elon Musk and DOGE continue to find ways to clean the swamp, and exposing the failures that the Biden administration left us. Then, Iran's latest move seems to be an interim nuclear deal—a familiar tactic to buy more time while engaging in strategic delay. The message should be clear: no nuclear weapons means no nuclear weapons. An interim agreement is unnecessary, assuming that's what's being proposed. Barak Ravid's take is always worth examining, but the stance here should be firm: reject interim deals outright. Lastly, Gov. Ron DeSantis calls in to discuss the Florida House legislature. The Florida Senate is collaborating constructively to maintain the state's success, while the Florida House is veering liberal, pushing bills to undo tort reform, enrich trial lawyers, and “de-wokify” universities. The House’s actions diverge from Florida’s conservative agenda. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

On Wednesday’s Mark Levin Show, President Trump is a genius. Communist China is isolated. Most of the rest of the world seeks trade and tariff deals. The stock market shot back up. It’s Incredible. Trump has implemented a sweeping tariff plan, hitting China with a 104% levy and additional tariffs, effectively isolating it from global trade.  He has shifted the trade landscape in a week, prompting over 70 countries to seek U.S. trade deals. Trump’s approach differs from the 1930s tariff wars, as he’s a capitalist, unlike the socialist FDR. He seeks to slash taxes, shrink government, cut spending and regulations, and push a pro-growth agenda absent in that earlier era. Also, Trump says that Iran cannot have a nuclear weapon. They need to make a deal or else. Does this make Trump a neo-con? Of course not.  What really hurt America was the Biden regimen and how they help fund Iran nuclear program. Later, Democrats have contributed to a growing "assassination culture" in the U.S. through inflammatory rhetoric against Trump, and their current silence in the face of escalating violent rhetoric is tantamount to encouragement.  The Democrat Party has always been violent – they even defended lynching. Finally, Adam Kredo calls in to discuss a lawsuit filed by American victims of Hamas's October 7, 2023, attack accuses Al Jazeera and its U.S. affiliate of providing material support to Hamas by employing operatives as journalists and broadcasting propaganda. The plaintiffs allege Al Jazeera had prior knowledge of the attack and incited violence through its U.S.-based operations, seeking damages under the U.S. Anti-Terrorism Act.

On Tuesday’s Mark Levin Show, most tariff coverage reflects the views of Washington, D.C., or New York, overlooking fishermen, ranchers, and farmers who applaud the tariffs—a clear sign of the media’s government and urban bias. Trump’s talent as a dealmaker is perpetually underestimated. Additionally, it’s fortunate that four Supreme Court justices remain steadfast. No delegate or ratifier of the Constitution would have endorsed a document allowing a single judge, like Judge Boasberg, to wield power in such a manner. Also, the Israeli Supreme Court decided to freeze the firing of Shin Bet chief Ronen Bar until further notice. This court is disregarding the sovereignty of the people, using Stalinist tactics to undermine the elected Prime Minister, and being supported by Marxist-Islamist protesters and a radical media, all while posing as justices. This is a global embarrassment. Later, Retired Police Lieutenant Douglas Deaton calls in to explain that he warned Texas officials about the East Plano Islamic Center (EPIC) establishing a Sharia-compliant "mega-city" near Dallas. His testimony during a Collin County Commissioners Court hearing exposed EPIC’s ties to Sharia advocacy, prompting Texas Governor Greg Abbott to order state investigations, including a Texas Rangers criminal probe. Afterward, Iran's fanatical fundamentalist Islamists have threatened our country with death again and again. Those who appease Iran, smear those who are clearheaded about Iran, and lie to the American people about what is truly at stake are the worst kind of demagogues -- mouthpieces for an enemy that has declared its intentions. Iran's leaders are the warmongers and those who lie for them are warmongers as well. Finally, Douglas Murray calls in to discuss his new book: On Democracies and Death Cults: Israel and the Future of Civilization.  Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

On Monday’s Mark Levin Show, Iran’s regime has a history of deceit and terrorism, including killing Americans and targeting leaders like President Trump. A single nuclear warhead could devastate a city, and it’s naive to think Iran wouldn’t attack the U.S. despite geographic distance. The goal isn’t to start a war with Iran but to prevent nuclear annihilation. Accepting Iran’s pursuit of nukes contradicts American values, as they aim to destroy the West. Trump insists Iran must be prevented from acquiring nuclear weapons, recognizing their terrorist nature and potential to deploy them. Also, a retired police lieutenant, Douglas Deaton, has revealed disturbing details about a planned Sharia-compliant "Islamic mega-city" near Dallas, Texas, called EPIC City, sparking investigations by Texas officials. Gov Greg Abbott has responded by directing state agencies and the Texas Rangers to investigate allegations of illegal activities, emphasizing that Sharia law is not permitted in Texas. Such a city must never exist in the U.S., American law must be followed without exception, not Sharia law. Zuhdi Jasser, Founder of the American Islamic Forum for Democracy (AIFD), calls in and explains that this mega-city aims to isolate its community to shield youth from freedom and liberty, despite claims of religious freedom. The leader of this mega-city has denied the Holocaust and praised Hamas’s actions. Later, the Supreme Court has allowed deportations of Venezuelan gang members to resume, enabling Trump to restart deporting Venezuelan illegal immigrants. The case was taken away from Judge Boasberg, with SCOTUS overruling the lower court, aligning with Levin that such judges have exceeded their authority. Learn more about your ad choices.

This week on the Mark Levin Show, publishing classified information violates the Espionage Act, yet Jeffrey Goldberg, who has suggested he has published classified information, faces no apparent consequences. Despite confessing his awareness and emphasizing the information’s classified nature, the lack of accountability—coupled with efforts to exaggerate an insignificant Signal chat—raises questions about the legal consistency. Nothing happened as a result of this Signal chat, but Democrats are attempting to spin it into something significant that it isn’t. A Republican congresswoman pushed for proxy voting for pregnant women, but the vast majority of Republicans don’t believe in proxy voting. Show up or don’t vote. 9 Republicans got upset and voted with Democrats, which canceled votes for the week. A tiny minority shouldn’t be able to derail President Trump’s priorities. We can’t have this constant blackmail. They have a budget bill to pass, and they need to get massive tax cuts in place. You can’t believe the media. Additionally, ICE has deported over 100,000 illegal immigrants in the last 70 days under the Trump administration. While the illegal immigration crisis is improving, progress is hindered by the radical left as Judges continue to challenge Trump's efforts to remove illegal criminals. Radical district judges claim that illegal criminals have a right to due process, aiming to clog the court system. Trump is pursuing an unprecedented strategy in U.S. history by combining massive tax cuts, deregulation, reductions in government size and personnel, and tariffs, all with the goal of reindustrializing America. Do tax cuts cause inflation or cause deficits? No. Inflation stems from government actions, not the private sector. Tax cuts create economic growth, wealth, and prosperity - across the board.

On Friday’s Mark Levin Show, the Supreme Court, in a 5-4 ruling, allowed the Trump administration to temporarily slash hundreds of millions in teacher-training funds as part of its anti-DEI push, with Chief Justice John Roberts joining the three radical justices. Roberts’ reliability has become very troubling.  This case highlights a jurisdictional issue that poses a significant problem. It appears that the five justices are laying the foundation to reign in these lower courts. Also, Judge James Boasberg is weighing whether to hold the Trump administration in contempt for supposedly violating his order halting the deportation of Venezuelan gang members, but there’s a catch. For contempt to stick, those involved need to have actually received and read the written order, not just heard about it secondhand. When was Boasberg’s order documented, and to whom exactly did he direct it? Later, Marine Le Pen’s situation in France mirrors President Trump’s, where she was leading in the polls and was seen as a threat to Macron, leading to her political takedown.  Meanwhile, the media faces a scandal as Hamas admits its death toll numbers—widely reported—were false, exposing the same outlets that lied about Biden, the COVID lab leak, Hunter Biden, and more – sickening.  Afterward, the media focuses on grilling Republicans about tariffs but ignores foreign tariffs on U.S. goods, like China’s 67% rates. It’s strange that they won’t dig into that.  Finally, WABC’s Sid Rosenberg calls in to discuss the 3 Jewish coaches in the NCAA final four, his morning show in NY, and Trump’s tariffs.

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

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