On Friday’s Mark Levin Show, the Democrat party is surrendering to the Islamist Marxists. What would New York City look like if Zohran Mamdani becomes mayor? We know what will happened because we know history. The question is will the failure be quick or slow. NYC will see an increased radicalization of the city with more crime. Housing, retail and grocery stores will suffer. Mamdani has no private sector experience and was only an ineffective assemblyman, speaking in vacuous phrases while attacking New York City. He trash-talks the country and its affordability, particularly grocery stores. American supermarkets are miracles of capitalism unmatched globally, and Mamdani wants the government to run them. Later, Rep. Anna Paulina Luna posts a misleading claim that Benjamin Netanyahu overrode President Trump and said the US can’t stop annexation, but Netanyahu never said that and has clarified no annexation will occur under Trump or amid peace efforts. Finally, Bret Baier calls in to discuss his new book – To Rescue the American Spirit: Teddy Roosevelt and the Birth of a Superpower.

Segment 1
Hello, America. Mark Levin here. Our number 877-381-3811. 877-381-3811. You wonder why the Democrat Party is moving so hard. Left Marxist Islamists left America. They don’t have anybody with courage who’s in leadership. They don’t have any burning characters and leadership. Hakeem Jeffries just endorsed Zoran Mamdani. Schumer sits on the sidelines. Despite the fact that his own faith is under attack. This city is under attack. But he won’t come out because he’s worried about his own re-election one day. The governor of New York, who’s a mess. Who inherited her seat from Cuomo. She endorses Sherman AMI six weeks ago or so. And he won’t endorse her. Should she run again? Not yet. He says. So the governor. The Senate minority leader, the senior senator. He would be speaker of the House. All these New Yorkers, they don’t give a damn about their state. They don’t give a damn about their city. And they are surrendering the Democrat Party to the Marxist Islamists. You would think leaders in the Democrat Party would be defending the party. Even if it means, God forbid, they lose their seat. Right. Is that really the end of the world, even if you’re them? Is it really the end of the world? I guess power is. Is such a glue, they can’t let go of it. What else are they going to do after all? Simon. Dani. There’s no real Democrat Party opposition. There are some people, but they’re not in leadership. They’re not in leadership. Now there is a new poll out. Interactive polls. Is interactive polls any good, Mr. Bitzer? And it is. I mean, does that mean people have to. Go on the Internet and participate or people are contacted. What does that mean? Because if it’s people going on the Internet, that doesn’t mean anything. People have campaigns and so forth and so on. You. But here we have zero Mamdani at 47%. Andrew Cuomo with 29 courteously with 16 now of Cuomo. We’re out according to this. My dummy would be 49, Sleepwear would be 41, an eight point differential. Did you receive this to. I guess you did, Rich and then without sleep were mundane. Me will get 49 and Cuomo will get 39. But Cuomo was not leaving and Inslee was not leaving. So I don’t even know what the purpose of the poll is. Other than to say what if? What if? I’m not sure what matter anyway. I have no idea, because turnout’s the key, isn’t it? And I’m sure that Curtis. And Cuomo are relying on now. Cuomo is not an energetic candidate. He did good job in the last debate. So did sleep with. But Cuomo is a fall asleep candidate. That’s the problem. Many couldn’t stop Madani before. So what would a world with mon ami as the mayor of New York look like? Well, every Democrat is going to be asked going forward if they support mon ami. Every Democrat going forward is going to be asked if they support one of his radical policies, whether it’s the economic socialism or cultural Marxism. You’re going to see abject failure. In a relatively short period of time with his policies. He’s going to attract illegal aliens, he’s going to attract the homeless, he’s going to attract drug users. He’s going to attract criminals. Where are they going to go? They’re going to go into the subway system. They’re going to go on the free buses. They’re going to go into hotels that he’ll commandeer. Like a Marxist dictator to house them all in the name of the people, of course. We’ve seen this before, but this will be even more aggressively so. You might even see the city go bankrupt. You might. It almost did. Under Lindsay in the 1970s, a liberal Republican spent like a drunken Marxist. But nonetheless, this guy is a real Marxist. He’s the real deal. What else are you going to see? He supports prostitution, legalizing prostitution. I mean, is that a priority? Apparently so. Now, what does that lead to? Women being kidnapped. Indentured servants. Treating women like crap. But I haven’t heard from any of the women’s groups. None of them. Not with this Islamist ideology or this Marxist proposal. Prostitution. So you will see prostitutes on the corners. The police will not be able to arrest them. So you’ll see that in the city as well. You’re going to see less cops as cops are not going to want to work for the NYPD under this mayor. Recruiting is going to be a disaster. People can take early retirement. They’re going to leave and they’ll move to Florida or somewhere else. Where they’ll be able to actually be cops. You will see that, too. You’re going to see a housing market. A housing market, depending on what he does and how he does it and how fast he does it. It won’t collapse outright. But the values will diminish, particularly when you have people leaving more than people who are coming to the city who actually have resources to buy a home. You’re going to see the nation’s poor to the extent they can get to New York. Moving to New York. Illegal aliens coming to New York because the benefits will be more in New York than anywhere else. This will be a heavy. A heavy burden, particularly for a middle class, hard working, blue collar American citizens. Are going to have to pay for most of this. Because a lot of the. Wealthiest people. A lot of the financial institutions and so forth, they’re going to leave as they should. Why would you stay? So the burden will be on people who can’t leave. Who have jobs that. They require them to be there, even though the jobs will be fewer and fewer. You’re going to see retail institutions are going to suffer. Not just grocery stores. Clothing stores. Delicatessens, pizzerias and so forth and so on that line, the streets of the city. The people who do stay. Many of them are going to stay for reasons having nothing to do with the viability of the city. Family connections. Many generations. They don’t want to leave. They have their home. They don’t want to sell it. They can’t get the number they want anyway. Cops and firefighters. If they can get out, they will, but otherwise they’re stuck. They’re stuck. You’re not going to see a housing boom. So what’s going to happen to the plumbers and the electricians? What’s going to happen to the construction industry? The men and women? The roofers? The brick layers, the asphalt layers and on and on has a resonating effect through a city, has a resonating effect through an economy. You see, we know what works and what doesn’t. There’s been enough human experience with this ideology called economic socialism and cultural Marxism. There’s been enough human experience. So I can tell you what’s going to happen. The only issue is whether it happens quickly or more slowly. If you’re going to depopulate the city of people who are taxpayers, who are hardworking, who are law abiding, you’re going to repopulate the city with the opposite criminals. People on the dole, public welfare, the illegal aliens and the like. And then you’re going to see increased radicalization of the city. There’s going to be a big move by the Islamists to populate New York City because one of them is their mayor. He will create an environment that’s walking women to them and unwelcoming to every other faith. There’s not going to be a business in this country on the face of the earth that’s going to want to relocate from another city or state or another country into New York City. Why would they? Mark my words. This is what’s going to happen. Then he will be buffered. He will be supported by an equally radical city council. Maybe there can be some checks on him in Albany, then Albany is hard left to the governor’s thrown in with the hard left. She’s not. She’s not a statesman. She’s not a leader. She’s not going to fight it. She’s gone along with it. I’ll be right back.
Segment 2
All righty. But I’m not trying to throw a wet blanket on a situation. The wet blanket is on the situation. That’s the truth. The wet blanket is on the situation. Here is today Sorum and Army with a group of Muslims outside a mosque in the Bronx today. The Bronx had six go. And over these last few days, these lessons have become the closing messages of Andrew Cuomo, Curtis Sliwa and Eric Adams. Yesterday, Andrew Cuomo laughed and agreed when a radio host said that I would cheer another 911. Yesterday, Eric Adams said that we can’t let our city become Europe. He compared me to violent extremists and he lied again and again when he said that our movement seeks to burn churches and destroy. Coming up, how? Here’s a deal. Here’s a deal. More on We’re on to you at Sid Rosenberg’s. On to you. I’m on to you. Eric Adams, as I knew, Cuomo’s obviously was on to you. We’re on to you. You’re everything. And worse. You hang around with terrorists, people who support terrorists, terrorist organizations, imams of that ilk. Whoever said things and you say things that indicate what you thought. And who you really are, your chip off your father’s shoulder. As a faculty member at Columbia University. A vile. anti-Semite and anti-American. And your family’s received a small fortune, if not a big fortune, from Qatar funneled to your mother. Don’t tell us that we’re Islamophobic when the ideology you support has slaughtered hundreds and hundreds of thousands of Muslims. That’s the truth. And then you play victim. You are an empty suit. Your slogan ere. You’re manipulator. You got it down pat. But everything said, Rosenberg says you’re everything. Curtis Sliwa says you’re everything. Andrew Cuomo says you’re everything Eric Adams says are most of all, you’re everything I’ve said. That’s who you are. Poor baby. Poor baby. You’re the one that hangs out with a 1993 imam. Who is a character witness for the imam who was involved in trying to blow up the World Trade Center. You’re the one who spews the propaganda. Hamas. A mass murdering Islamist blood cult, a throwback to the seventh century barbarians. That’s you. You’re the one that embraces care. Which has links to Hamas, which was founded by Hamas sites. And I can go down the list. No. Play your victim crap. It’s not going to fly. You may get elected. But you’re no victim. You’re a perpetrator. The things you’ve said about our country. The things you said about Jews. The things you said about our president. Yes, You might as well be hanging out in Qatar or Turkey. You’d fit in perfectly. That’s not a smear. That’s a matter of fact. A matter of fact. Yes, you do support a global intifada, a global jihad. Use the slogan Air about it. Now you’re offended by it? No, That’s you, pal. We have you pegged right. Cut. Seven, please go. Growing up in the shadow of 911, I have known what it means to live with an undercurrent of suspicion in this city, you know. Give me a break about suspicion in the city against Muslims. The countries you admire, the ideologies you admire, the terror groups you admire. Suspicion. Where your head is. Don’t use 911 to justify what you’ve said, What you believe. Who you pal around with body. I, for one, am not going to put up with it. We’re not going to tolerate it. You may get elected mayor, but I’m here for another four and a half years and I’ll be on your ass every damn minute. We’ll be right back.
Segment 3
So Mamdani is trying to bring out his base, which is the Muslim community, especially the Islamist parts of the Muslim community. And so today he spent most of the day, as I can see from these clips, talking about being victimized. He’s a victim. And the ladies and gentlemen, this man has said things associated with people and promoted things that are really unimaginable in the United States of America. Unimaginable. And now if you criticize him or even if you talk about them or expose them. They pull this Islamophobia crap. The Islamophobia. So it’s nothing to do with Islamophobia. It has to do with. The Islamist radical ideology. Cut ego. The bigger question is whether we are willing to say goodbye to something much larger than either of these two men. It is whether we are willing to say goodbye to anti-Muslim sentiment that has grown so endemic in our city that when we hear it, Oh, give me give me a break. The people who are under attack in the city of New York, the blue collar workers by the left. Are the Jews by the Islamists, and the Marxists are the cops by their criminals. Are the homeowners. The hard working. People of New York are under attack. And now it’s going to get much worse. The New York Post had the numbers the other day. 62% of the migrant communities voting for this clown. That’s how he’s going to win. That’s how he’s going to win 62%. The migrant community. And he wants to make sure that community turns out, especially Islamists. That’s what he’s doing today. And don’t you dare criticize him, because if you criticize him, you see you’re in Islamophobia. That’s not working. That’s not going to work with those of us who see right through this basket. He has said things about Jews, said things that should happen to Jews. I’m not familiar that any Jew has said anything like that to him as a Muslim, whether it’s my buddy, said my buddy Curtis, not my buddy Cuomo. Man. I don’t know. The mayor. Me. We have never said anything. About him. Number one, that’s not true. And number two. Number two, anything like the blood libel hate that he has for Jews. The hate that he has for this country, just like Talib and Omar and Sanders and AOC. That group that promotes him, the Democratic Socialists. These are Marxist Islamists. They want to overthrow this country. And how dare you criticize him for his own record, for his own words, for his own positions? How dare you do that? That’s Islamophobia. So vote for me. Vote for me. Let’s get past this Islamophobia and right into radical Islamism and Marxism. Yes. Guy is a fraud. He’s no victim. So perpetrator. They changed the primary system in the Democrat. For the Democrat Party effectively. So a relatively small turnout would nominate this jerk. Oh, I had thought whether the words were Don’t go ahead. I don’t want to hear this bastard anymore. Cuomo has released a new video that’s actually quite good. Criminals for Mamdani. You see, this is the reality. More people are going to be hurt, more people are going to be maimed, more people are going to be killed as a result of this guy. More stores and homes will be burgled and robbed. Private property destroyed. Public places like parks, subways, public transportation and buses are all going to be ruined. They’re going to be restrooms, toilets. You’re going to see drug users and drug paraphernalia everywhere Times Square and well beyond. Homeless in the streets. Police who can’t do a damn thing about any of it. We’ve gone from Giuliani getting these squeegee guys off to the street demanding. Inviting Islamists. Inviting drug users homeless. Illegal aliens into this city. By the throngs. Attacking success and successful people. This is the jackass who talked about raising taxes on whites and white communities, isn’t he, Mr. Producer? It. He’s a racist. He’s a bigot. That’s what he is. And I care if he’s Muslim or Jewish, Christian or white or black. He’s a punk. That’s what this guy is. And I’ll be honest. If he’s elected day in and day out. Here’s the Cuomo for New York City released a video ad criminals from Mamdani go Zoran Mamdani. His opponents want you to believe he’s an inexperienced radical whose policies will make New York City more dangerous. But what do his actual supporters think? Mamdani isn’t crazy. He’s just trying to even the playing field. You know, give everyone a fair shot. Sure, he said multiple times, we need to defund the police. But that was just a metaphor. And yes, he did say crime is a social construct. But that was also a metaphor. And his main backer, the Democratic socialist ideas, are common sense, such as decriminalizing misdemeanors, like shoplifting. Third degree assault, trespassing, prostitution. And drunk driving with plans to decriminalize all drugs. Mamdani will be a job creator for drug dealers. Instead of helping us homeless get off the streets and into the mental health facilities we need. He wants to give us safe injection sites to do crack and let us sleep in subway cars. These are actual policies Mamdani and the DSA want to implement on day one. When a woman is being domestically abused, she finally won’t have to deal with some pesky cop to arrest the abuser, but now a social worker to help you know kumbaya the situation. Breathe in. Breathe out. Mom, Donnie is finally lowering jail sentences. Duty. But, Mom, Donnie says you’re free to go. Who cares if legalizing prostitution statistically leads to an increase of sex trafficking of women and young girls by 70%? You can’t have safety without a quality. Unlawful abiding citizens like us. Globalize the Intifada. I’m a criminal. I’m a criminal. I’m a criminal. I’m a criminal. Yup. I’m a criminal. So Ron Lazaro and mom, Donnie. I didn’t have a real job until I was 30. But sure, give me the keys to the city. What’s the worst that can happen? Paid for by 100 stories. The sky has never had a private sector job of any kind whatsoever. None. He’s never had a real government job. Assemblyman who got nothing done. That’s it. So he speaks in these vacuous phrases. He attacks our country, tax the city, tax the system. When somebody does that, they’re attacking you, they’re attacking your parents and your grandparents. You built the city. You built the country. They did to. Then incomes of an immigrant and his family just trash talk in the country. Trash talk in the city. Affordability. And when you compare the United States to any other country in the face of the earth, tell me about affordability. Affordability. It’s interesting, too, that he focuses specifically on grocery stores. I’ve talked about grocery stores many times here. How about the big ones we call supermarkets? Been any of them lately? How about these warehouse places, Costco into one of those? These are miracles of. Capitalism, an Americanism. Nothing like this on the scale that we have today, the Wal-Marts and so forth exist anywhere in the world. Certainly not in these Marxist Islamist countries. What is it that you want? What is it that we want? You go to a a large grocery store and we’ve talked about this. The variety of vegetables fresh. Or organic from all over the world. How many kinds of oranges? All kinds of lettuce. Fruits of every kind. Go to the meat section. Every kind of cut of beef. And. 90%. 95%. 80. 85%. Ground beef. All packaged. Refrigerated, fresh. Where else does this exist? Whole chickens already roasted chicken parts. Dark me. Light me. White me. You go to the deli counter, a hundred different types. Of sliced. Whatever you want. Go to the bakery section. Fresh bread. So many kinds, I can’t even name them. Some with 12 grains, some with seven grains, some of six grains, no grains. Italian sour dough, Hala. You name it. My right, Mr. Producer. How many types of yogurt, how many types of butter and margarine? How many types of potato chips and pretzels and popcorn. How many types of candy? Detergent. Toilet paper. Paper towels. Soda. Juices. Premade food. Frozen food. You want flowers for your wife? Get the flowers there. Right there. Many of them have pharmacies right there for you. Over the counter right there, ten different types of toothbrushes, ten different types of toothpaste, different types of razor blades, different types of deodorant, whatever you want. It’s all right there. And even though we complain like hell about the cost of drugs and depending on the drugs you take, there are some that are very expensive because they are. Very capital intense. To develop them, to figure them out and develop them. And there’s a relatively small pool of people who take them in some cases when your drugs are very expensive. But that said, you know damn well. You often walk out of there with three or four or 510 different types of drugs. And you haven’t had to get a second mortgage on your home. That’s for most of us. I understand there’s exceptions. Affordability is not another place on the face of the earth that says anything like this. None. Not Western Europe. Not Eastern Europe. None. None. You want ice cream? The zillion types of ice cream. Lactose intolerant. They got ice cream for you, too. Soybean ice cream. Oatmeal. Ice cream. Real ice cream. Heavy cream. Ice cream. Ice cream sandwiches. Popsicles. Icicles. Italian ice. You want pizza? 50 different types of pizza. Oh, yeah. Red grapes. Green grapes. Organic grapes. Seedless grapes. It’s incredible, isn’t it? You start to think about it, Mr. Produce. How about eggs? One six, 1218. What do you want? You want brown eggs? White eggs. You want large. Extra large. Extra. Extra large. Right there. It’s incredible. How about Band-Aids? 20 different types of Band-Aids. My point is, ladies and gentlemen. New York City. Any city? New York state. Any state. We are so blessed by our economic system. By what has been our political system for some guy to come in in New York. His family are migrants from Uganda. To trash our grocery stores, to trash our economic system. They complain about bigotry when his family chose to come here and on and on and on. This man shouldn’t be mayor. How the hell did it even get into the country? I’ll be right back.
Segment 4
So Mamdani is at a rally after he’s at the mosque lamenting Islamophobia. While you spew poison against America and Americans and our economic system and Jews. Now he’s with his his friend, Letitia James. Cut to go. We know that Donald Trump is coming after her because she did the right thing. She held him to account. She showed that no man and no one to be. So here you go. Her case was a fraud case because they’re her. She’s a fraud. There was no mortgage fraud. There was no fraud whatsoever. Everybody was paid before the due date. The law was twisted and turned. And in the case of Letitia James, you can’t be all right. Have your primary residence in Norfolk, Virginia, and be the attorney general in New York, Can you America? And so there’s Orhan Mamdani. There he is. Spewing is stupidity, is ignorance, is partisanship and is hate. In defense of an alleged criminal who lied on her mortgage.
