On Friday’s Mark Levin Show, the Virginia Supreme Court ruling on congressional redistricting upholds the state constitution. The Democrat threats to appeal to the U.S. Supreme Court is just drama with no federal issue (since state supreme courts have final say on state constitutions). This ruling has broader implications including the end of race-based districting in states like Alabama and Mississippi, defensive Republican gerrymandering, past census undercounts favoring Democrats, and upcoming population shifts benefiting red states. Also, in New York and other blue cities, Marxist mayors like Zohran Mamdani seek to punish the wealthy with higher taxes regardless of their contributions in jobs, innovation, and value creation, prompting billionaires and businesses to flee to lower-tax environments that welcome them rather than attack what they’ve built. Later, Deputy Assistant to the President and Senior Director for Counterterrorism Sebastian Gorka calls in to explain the new unclassified U.S. counterterrorism strategy President Trump signed. It refocuses America on counterterrorism with zero compromise, targeting three main threats: cartels (now designated foreign terrorist organizations), global jihadists such as Al Qaeda and ISIS, and radical violent left-wing extremists including Antifa, certain pro-transgender individuals, and anarchists responsible for killings like that of Charlie Kirk. Afterward, Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson issued a sharp dissent in the Supreme Court’s Louisiana v. Callais case over a procedural decision to expedite finalization of its ruling against race-based congressional maps. Her stance reflects a progressive effort to delegitimize the Court, especially after its bright-line rejection of race-based districting, while ignoring the state’s prior judicial entanglements over maps. Finally, Mike Rogers calls in with an update on his Senate race in Michigan. He warns that his opponent, Abdul El Sayed, embraces radical activist Hassan Piker and has justified a Hezbollah-linked terrorist attack on Michigan schoolchildren – these views should be disqualifying.
