On Friday’s Mark Levin Show, it’s important that the peace mission against Iran continue until fully completed, without artificial timelines or pressure from weak voices. Currently two weeks in, the operation has devastated Iran’s senior leadership, navy, air force, ground-to-air missiles, drone capabilities and ballistic missiles. Prematurely halting would abandon the Iranian people, preserve the ideological Islamist Nazi infrastructure, and signal weakness to adversaries like China and Russia. Without this current action, Iran would eventually acquire nuclear weapons and ICBMs capable of reaching the U.S. It’s shocking how easily both the neo-fascist woke Reich and the Marxist left dismiss these nuclear risks. Also, Tucker Carlson lied about a conversation he had with Mark Levin. About 90% of his account was fabricated psychobabble. There’s no reasoning with someone like this who’s a useful idiot exploited by the left. Later, Democrats have defunded key agencies like the Secret Service, TSA, Coast Guard, and FEMA during a shutdown. Democrats are deliberately inconveniencing TSA workers and travelers to pressure Republicans into destroying ICE and halting deportations, while protecting massive socialist programs, foreign aid, and unrestricted benefits instead. The Democrat Party as at war with American citizens, they abuse essential services and prioritizing political goals over public safety and fairness. Finally, Sen Lindsey Graham calls in and explains that the Iranian regime is a fanatical theocracy driven to dominate Islam, destroy Israel, and target infidels like America. They were nearing nuclear weapon capability with enough enriched uranium for 10 bombs and just weeks from weapons-grade material. Trump saved the world from Iranian nuclear blackmail, chaos, and destruction of Israel.

Segment 1
Hello America. Mark Levin here. Our number 877-381-3811. 877-381-3811. Welcome. I can’t believe it’s Friday already. I can’t believe it’s Friday, Ira. Wow. But we keep our foot on the gas pedal. As we plug along here now, it’s very important that this military campaign, which I call peace mission, because that’s what it is, that this be completed when it’s completed. In other words, no false timelines, no pressure from quislings and phonies. We’re in the middle of a war. We’re in the middle of a war. Conditions determine when to stop and when not to. The worst thing that could possibly happen is to prematurely stop. Leave the people in Iran. To fend for themselves. Leave the the ideological Islamist Nazi infrastructure. Where it still exists. And then, of course, the international implications. China would see we’re not serious more likely to invade Taiwan and quicker Russia would see we’re not serious. Keep dragging us along on their so-called negotiations. That is Russia’s. I can only see disaster ahead. Should the president listen to certain of his advisers? Should he listen to certain senators like Hawley and others? Let me explain a few things that are going on here. Because this is quite different actually than. Any time I can think of in the past 50 years or so. We’re beating the crap out of the enemy. The enemy doesn’t doesn’t want to surrender it ideologically. Is basically kamikaze oriented. We’re into this for two weeks. Two weeks. The senior political and military leadership are gone. Their Navy’s all but gone. Their air force has gone. Their ground to air missiles are gone. Their drones, their ability to launch drones at 90, 95% depleted. The ballistic missiles, about 90% depleted. This is in two weeks. And all casualties are horrible. Obviously, every life matters. Except, of course, when it’s an abortion. I guess that’s not a life according to the left, but that’s a whole nother story. Matters to me. We’ve lost some brave men and women. And we lost six. In an apparent accident. And then the last 24 hours. And so it’s horrible. But you don’t go to war and have no casualties whatsoever. Unless somebody can show me such a war or such a military campaign. But I do know this. If we weren’t engaged now in this righteous peace mission. The enemy would have nuclear weapons. The enemy would have God knows how many ballistic missiles by the time it’s all over. And they’d have ICBM, ballistic missiles that could reach us. Then what? And then I’m stunned in this in this age of nuclear weapons. How easily. The neofascist woke, right? The Marxist left and the Democrat Party. I’m not surprised by the Islamists, but. I am stunned by how easily they they just blow that off. They just blow that off. We’ve got two incredible programs this weekend. I hope you’ll set your DVR at 8 p.m. Eastern Saturday and Sunday on FOX. Incredible programs. Sunday, we have Victor Davis Hanson, who’s coming back. And Senator Ted Cruz. Tomorrow night, we have John Spencer, one of the great experts. On all things military. Great patriot. And Julian Epstein. A tremendous patriot as well and a Democrat. Who’s furious with his own party, the radical elements in his own party, the leadership in his own party. He’s a Democrat, a moderate Democrat. And there’s only a relative handful of those left, isn’t there? And we’re going to cover everything. Soup to nuts from the Iran war. To the Save America Act. To the rampant anti-Semitism and domestic terrorism. And I don’t I don’t pull any punches. I don’t have a veneer on any of this. As you’ll see, it’s going to be very blunt. And that’s the way it is. But for those who are ideologically oriented, whether it’s the Marxists who hate our country, the Democrat Party, which hates America, it certainly does. Or they woke right. Neofascist and their isolationist mentality, which is suicidal. Ideology is not what should drive. Foreign policy or any policy. And I talked about this earlier in the week on Liberty’s Voice. On the video podcast. Ideology does not take into consideration. Facts. Knowledge. Experience. The nature of the enemy. The nature of your forces. Ideologies. Ideology. Ideology is not philosophy. Philosophy is a principle belief system in which you use prudence to apply facts, events, situations, the environment. To your principles. But ideology doesn’t work that way. Facts don’t matter. Knowledge doesn’t matter. Experience doesn’t matter. Every war is a forever war. When every war is not a forever war. Of course, when the enemy’s conducting a forever war, you have every right to put an end to it. But we’re talking about nuclear weapons. We’re talking about an ideology, the Islamist Nazi ideology, where they’ve made clear where we’ve spent years talking about this. That they have a kamikaze mentality. That the way they interpret their faith. If they go out. In a massive act of terrorism. A massive act of destruction. Massive act of. Genocide there to be rewarded for it. Now, how do you fight with that? First of all, you don’t negotiate with it. Diplomacy doesn’t work with that, does it? This is very, very important to understand. Very important. And so what if the Democrats don’t in the face of this? Well, they’ve tried to pass. A resolution under the War Powers Act of 1973, which is utterly unconstitutional. But their version of the resolution they wanted to pass would have required the commander in chief, the President of the United States, to immediately withdraw all of our armed forces from the engagement with Iran. Anybody think that’s a good idea? Yeah, they do. The Islamo Nazi regime in Iran, the Communist regime in China, the fascist regime in Iran, and the inbred regime in North Korea. They all think that’s a great idea. So the Democrat Party and the enemy. Have the same view. Worse than that. The Democrat Party has defunded. The Coast Guard has defunded TSA. Has defunded the Secret Service has defunded FEMA in the middle of a war. You’ve seen what took place. You saw what took place in Michigan at a synagogue last night. You saw what took place at Old Dominion College. You saw what took place in New York City. Well, they IADS and it to Islamists. This ties, guys. You saw what took place. And I can go down the whole damn list. And according to the Democrats. So what? They want power. They want to destroy ice. They don’t want to deport illegal aliens. They don’t even want to deport illegal aliens who have committed additional crimes in our country. And they don’t want to deport would be terrorists. And so here we are, the remnants of what Biden and the Democrats did is what we’re is what we’re feeling is what we’re dealing with. Now when it comes to foreign policy. Obama. Gave the enemy ten years to build nukes and billions of dollars. Biden gave the enemy $100 billion in sanctions relief. That’s how they treat the enemy and what the enemy do with that money. It advanced its building of nuclear technology and development and ballistic missiles. If this president, gutsy, smart, heroic, didn’t act the way he acted. By the time of the end of his presidency, the enemy would have 100, 100 nuclear warheads. Tens of thousands of ballistic missiles. The technology to hit the continental United States with a ballistic missile and a nuclear warhead or a chemical warhead or biological warhead, because the enemy is working on that, too. And the Democrat Party’s answer is no answer. Well, let me amend that. It’s appeasement. It’s worse than appeasement. It’s worse than Neville Chamberlain. It’s to fund the enemy with billions of dollars. Can you imagine? And so the Democrat Party exists to exploit any casualties that we have. Any setbacks that you typically have in a war, and there have been mighty few in this spectacular peace campaign. They exist to try and use the law and the Constitution against the law in the Constitution against the commander in chief. A big chunk of their party is spreading antisemitism and Jew hate, Christian hate undermining our country. It’s part of their new coalition, political coalition. And we got to fight like hell to make sure that doesn’t happen to the Republican Party and the conservative movement, which is one of the things I’m hell bent on doing. This needs to be seen through to the end. And anybody who says they don’t understand the mission either had a recent head injury, is drunk, high on drugs, or a Democrat, Islamist, Marxist or a woke right neo fascist that is ideologically driven and full of crap. I’ll be right back.
Segment 2
Pete Hegseth today was fantastic. He’s given some great press conferences. I mean, he is a great defense secretary. Simply is. And, of course, he’s asked questions. And he’s asked questions. About someone who he has to scrape off the bottom of his shoe cart. One go. Also, over 80% of Republicans support the president’s military action in Iran, but there’s some consternation in parts of the party, particularly from your fellow Fox News alum, Tucker Carlson. He called the war disgusting and evil and then said of unconditional surrender, which the president has called for, means foreign troops get to rape your wives and daughters. Have you heard these comments and what’s your reaction to them? We’re busy executing on behalf of great, patriotic Americans with a clear mission that’s 47 years overdue. And we’re going to execute on that regardless of what people say. That was a very good response on the spot. Like that is a very good question, actually, to. A very good question, actually, too, I thought. Now, Carlson wakes up every day trying to figure out how throw turd in the swimming pool, how to disrupt and stir the pot had undermined our armed forces. Have a stab the president in the back how to serve the interests of the Marxists and the Islamists and his dear friends. One form or another of totalitarians, particularly Putin and those people is very little positive to say about America. And I have to say, my own personal experience says he’s hopelessly, hopelessly. A psychopathic liar. And I’m going to give you some examples of that, particularly one right now. Let’s see if I can pull this up. Okay. Right here. Here we go. No, I don’t watch Piers Morgan. He’s kind of Jerry Springer, but he doesn’t strike me as as intelligent as Jerry Springer. Jerry Springer was actually an accomplished lawyer. Piers Morgan doesn’t strike me as accomplished that much. He has the British accent. So the presumption is he’s at least quasi intelligent, but he’s mostly sort of a clown act. He just is. He just is. And he platforms some of the sickest people. And of course, these people, they all talk to each other. I mean, these podcasters, they interview each other. They reinforce each other. Then they’ll bring in a phony historian now, and then they’ll bring in and out and out and out Islamists like a Mehdi Hasan Or a sank, whatever that fat slobs name is, it doesn’t matter. And these are really vile jihadi types. They really are. And so they use their platforms. In order to draw attention. To their shows. And so forth. It’s really bizarre. It’s bizarre, but that’s who they are. And you see this. These are middle aged people. Middle aged people who had careers before. Who were relatively rational before. But not so much. Huh? Got to take this break. Harold Reed for you. I want to play it. What he said about yours truly. And what a complete, complete liar this man is. We’ll be right back.
Segment 3
So here’s what happened. I normally don’t discuss phone conversations with you because I figure the person on the other side doesn’t expect me to. But. Tucker can’t control his emotions. And so there he is with Piers Morgan, I guess, who’s his quasi psychiatrist. So he calls me. I see. Yup. How are you? He’s fine. He was very polite. I was very polite. He said, Look. We agree on 70%. And I was talking to my wife and she said, Well, then call Mark. And. Have a peace, have a have a ceasefire. According to him, I wouldn’t know that myself. And he called me and he said that. I said, That’s perfectly fine by me. But I got two problems. Number one, you trashed my stepson on the air for an hour. That. Is utterly unacceptable. And number two, you attack my faith relentlessly. So there can be no cease fire. Kenny was friendly and that was pretty much the end of the conversation. He said, Very gracious of you to call, but I got some problems here with with what you did and what you’re doing. That was it, pretty much. Now, here’s what he tells Piers Morgan. I called Mark Levine right after Charlie Kirk was killed to say, geez, this is horrible. Let’s stop fighting. Because we probably have a lot in common. When you see someone killed who you love, you want to fight less. So that’s why I called him. And he was nice, by the way. He was. Then he starts getting it. Now, listen to this. This whole thing about my mother told me there was going to be another Holocaust in the United States. My mother has never told me that. Bless her soul. Not once. And they’re coming for the Jews. I have never said that. Not to him or anybody else. I don’t want to make fun of other people’s fears, he says, because we all have fears that may or may not be reasonable. But it was so real to him. And I almost said, Geez, Mark, of course I’m totally opposed to hurting anybody, period. I’m a Christian, but I don’t think we’re on the cusp of that in Connecticut right now. In Connecticut right now. Most of it is. I don’t know what he’s talking about, but I was so real to him. Now, excuse me, but it was so real to him. Like, his fear of that dominated everything. Ladies and gentlemen, you can either trust me or him. This is psychobabble. This is truly nuthouse stuff, institutionalization stuff. It never happened. What I told you is what happened. This stuff about my mother and the Holocaust. And it’s coming here and I fear it. I never said a word of that to him, ever. Ever. Well, why don’t you come on my show and explain yourself to our peers? Why don’t you come up? Because I despise you people. I despite, you know, much like Trump and it’s not intentional. I’m a counterpuncher. I don’t go out of my way to poke people in the eye. I’m a counterpuncher. If they say things about me or you in my audience or my country or my family or the military, I come to the defense of you and everybody else I just mention. But if they’re just normal people, what do I care? I don’t. This guy is as abnormal as they come. He may even actually believe this. I don’t know. He’s definitely a psychopath, in my humble opinion. He may actually believe. It’s like Megyn Kelly in one of her tirades. Like a drunk. When Mark and I worked together at Fox. Oh, you should have heard what the people said about him begging. Kelly and I never worked together in Fox. Ever. I came later. What is she talking about? She’s another psychobabble. It’s crazy. These people are nuts. Absolutely nuts. They don’t debate or comment or argue on what I actually say. They make things up. And I’m not the only one they do that with, by the way. But they have to make things up because they have to justify even in their own minds that they’re not the crazy asses. They obviously are. So. 90% of what he said never happened. If he’d called me on the phone and said, Look, Mark, I’ve turned Lee Leaf, I’ve turned over a new leaf. I apologize for trashing your stepson for an hour. I’m not going to. I’m not going to do this anti-Semitic crap anymore. That would have been different. But that’s not what he did. And obviously what he did was self-serving because look how he talks about it. He’s completely untrustworthy. He’s a serial liar. He’s a absolute head case. I’m telling you that right now. Absolute head case. It’s really sad in many ways. And of course, Barrett Media. I don’t know what the hell Barrett Media is. They’re they’re hanging on his every word everybody else, because the left likes to stir the pot with this guy. He’s a useful idiot. He seriously is. And there’s there’s no reasoning with somebody like this. Absolutely no reasoning. Let’s see here. Let’s get back on track. President of the United States. This is, let’s see today, Friday the 13th, I don’t mind Friday the 13th. I don’t mind the 13th at all. My mother was born on a Friday the 13th. And she was. Such a fantastic human being. President says we are totally destroying the terrorist regime of Iran militarily, economically and otherwise. And he’s right about that. Yet if you read The failing New York Times, you would incorrectly think that we are not winning because The New York Times, like Tucker Carlson, lies and they lie and they lie and they lie some more. Iran’s navy is gone. Their air force is no longer missiles, drones, everything else are being decimated. He’s correct. And their leaders have been wiped from the face of the earth with unparalleled firepower, unlimited ammunition and plenty of time. Watch what happens to these deranged scumbags today. And I love the way he says that. They’ve been killing innocent people all over the world for 47 years. And now I, as the 47th president of the United States of America and killing them. What a great honor it is to do so. I thank you for your attention to this matter. President Donald J. Trump That is fabulous. That’s one of the greatest presidential statements ever to, you know, that Mr. Biden is. It truly is. It truly is. Pete Hegseth. At the press conference this morning. Cut to and Pete is doing a fantastic job. Go. That the United States is decimating the radical Iranian regime’s military in a way the world has never seen before. Never before has a modern, capable military, which Iran used to have been so quickly destroyed and made combat ineffective and devastated. We said it would not be a fair fight and it has not been. As I stated during our first press conference on day two. That was ten short days ago. The combination of the world’s two most powerful air forces is unprecedented and unbeatable between our Air Force and that of the Israelis. Over 15,000 enemy targets have been struck. That’s well over 1000 a day. No other combination of countries in the world can do that. So today, as we speak, we fly over the top of Iran and Tehran fighters and bombers all day picking targets as they choose. As our intelligence gets better and better and more refined, looking up, the IRGC and Iranian regime sees only two things on the side of aircraft the Stars and Stripes and the star of David, the evil regime’s worst nightmare. Iran has no air defenses. Iran has no air force. Iran has no navy. Their missiles, their missile launchers and drones being destroyed or shot out of the sky. Their missile volume is down 90% there when we attack drones yesterday, down 95%. As the world is seeing, they are exercising sheer desperation in the Straits of Hormuz. So tell me, other than John Fetterman and maybe a couple other Democrats in Congress who is celebrating this? Who is who is applauding this? On the Democrat side, nobody. They are for the enemy because they think it helps them politically in the midterm elections. I’m telling you the truth. This is how sick these bastards are. I’m telling you the truth. We’ll be right back.
Segment 4
More Pete Hegseth. I just found his press conference today. So exquisite. Seriously? So exquisite. Cut three ago. Iran’s leadership to no better shape. Desperate and hiding. They’ve gone underground, cowering. That’s what rats do. We know the new so-called not so supreme leader is wounded and likely disfigured. He put out a statement yesterday, a weak one, actually. But there was no voice and there was no video. It was a written statement. He called for unity, apparently killing tens of thousands of protesters is his kind of unity. Iran has plenty of cameras and plenty of voice recorders. Why a written statement? I think you know why. His father dead. He’s scared. He’s injured. He’s on the run and he lacks legitimacy. It’s a mess for them. Who’s in charge? Iran may not even know. Finally, I want you to hear from General Dan Kane. Raising Kane. Cut five, Go. Iranian combat power continues to decline as a result of the continued strikes. As the secretary talked about, We’ve attacked over 6000 targets and our strike packages continue to launch every hour. And we’ve maintained an unprecedented number of sorties up overhead of Iran. CENTCOM is now persistently over the enemy and a result we’ve seen a reduction in missile and one way attack fires. As the secretary said, in less than two weeks, we’ve rendered the Iranian navy combat ineffective and continue to attack naval vessels, including all of their Soleimani class warships, which were armed with anti-ship missiles and anti-aircraft weapons, if not the most brilliant. Military battle is certainly one of them. And the not just the use of this cutting edge technology that really most countries don’t have, including China, but synchronizing it within our military and our branches and synchronizing it with another military, the Israeli military. This is genius. It is incredibly impressive. It’s remarkable. What’s taking place. And of course, they’re not going to give the president. Credit, they’re not going to give General Keane or Secretary Haig Seth credit, and they’re not going to give our military credit. They hate our military the way they hate ice. They hate ice the way they hate the NYPD and local cops all over the country. We know who the Democrats in the media are. We know how contemptible they are. And perhaps one of the most contemptible is Bernie Sanders. Bernie Sanders was born a Jew. But he’s a Jew hater. It happens. It happens in every ethnicity. It happens in every faith. You’re born. What You’re born. You have no choice. But Bernie Sanders is a notorious Jew hater. He’s a notorious Israel hater. And I’ve told you many times. Then when he was a young man, he went to a kibbutz in Israel. He didn’t just go to your typical communist kibbutz. He went to a Stalinist kibbutz, which was even cringe worthy to the communists, given what Stalin had done. And it was well known at that time. He has endorsed Castro. He has endorsed Noriega. And of course, he had a love affair with Moscow. He is loved by the Islamists because he’s part of the Marxist Islamist axis. And so he spreads bigotry, racism, anti-Semitism, anti Christianity. As a Stalinist. Just like Kartal soon spreads it as a joke, right? I don’t even know what they call these guys anymore. Listen to this. Cut six. Go. I think I speak for myself enough for you that a lot of U.S. Mideast policy is dictated by Israel. Well, let’s deal with that right now. Why would it be dictated by Israel? Mr.. Does Israel have a hold on our economy? Does Israel have a hold on our military? Does Israel have a hold on our president? Probably the most independent president I’ve ever seen. Let the Jews control everything in the country? Hardly. So what is this that? Our policy is dictated by Israel. It doesn’t even make any sense. So he’s a bigot, he’s a Jew hater. He’s a self-hating Jew. That’s what Bernie Sanders is. Go ahead. Well, I think Rubio probably had it right that it was Israel who decided they wanted to go to war. And now listen to that. Now, when you hear the whole context and we’ve played it and we’ve read it and Rubio has explained it, as has everybody else, that’s not what he said. But Bernie Sanders is a Stalinist, so agitprop propaganda mixed with activism to push a certain result is what his mindset is. So this is a contemptible old man, an old time Stalinist, who also wants to overthrow the country, who has spent his life commitment to overthrowing the country. And he’s very popular within the Democrat Party. So what does that tell you? I’ll be right back.
