On Friday’s Mark Levin Show, no major political party has previously opposed U.S. troops, the commander-in-chief, or rooted for defeat to gain power – until today’s Democrat Party. The Democrat Party offers no support or defense of the troops, instead relentlessly claiming the ongoing military campaign is unconstitutional or illegal – which is false. No matter what Democrats and their media say there is a clear mission—to eliminate the Iranian regime before it eliminates the U.S. This peace mission in Iran could progress faster with national unity, which Democrats prevent. Later, Lee Smith calls in and argues that President Trump’s Operation Epic Fury to destroy Iran’s nuclear facilities, ballistic missile program, military capabilities, and ultimately dismantle the Islamic Republic represents a long-overdue and courageous American response to nearly five decades of Iranian aggression against the U.S. and its allies. Despite over 80% Republican support, Tucker Carlson, Megyn Kelly, and their ilk denounce this as Mark Levin or Israel’s war – which is ignorant.

Segment 1
Hello America. Mark Levin here. Our number 877-381-3811. 877-381-3811. Thank you for being here. Had a family matter we had to attend to. Everything’s great last evening and it was attended to and it went well. It went well, thank God. But I’m here tonight. This evening I will be on HANNITY tonight at 9 p.m. Eastern. It will be on Life, Liberty and Levin on Saturday and Sunday, 8 p.m. Eastern. Two great live programs. I know you’re going to love them. But let’s talk about now. You know, I look at American history. And I look at these. These wars we’ve been involved in. Over the extent of our history, including a war to give us our freedom and our country. I don’t believe we’ve ever had a political party, a major political party. That roots against our troops, against the commander in chief and roots for defeat. As a means for gaining power. Now, there used to be Democrats like Scoop Jackson, like Patrick Moynihan, and like many more. Who we’re joined together. Country first. But those days are over. We have a Democrat Party that that’s an umbrella party for every. Every group. That hates America and wants to destroy America from within. They say they don’t, but obviously they do. Tell me, what is Hakeem Jeffries said in defense of our troops? In support of our troops. Not a word about Schumer. Not a word about the vast majority of the elected Democrats in Congress. Nothing. Not a word. Instead, we get this drumbeat. That this military campaign is unconstitutional. Which it’s not that it’s illegal somehow. Which it’s not. They use the War Powers Act of 1973 as a political cudgel. And ironically, this president has applied with it. Has complied with it and has applied it. In the middle of a military campaign. They’ve shut down TSA. The people who are working at our airports aren’t getting paid a penny. Not a cent. Fima. The people who are trying to help people in this country in need aren’t getting paid a cent. The Secret Service. They are protecting our president, among others. They aren’t getting paid a cent. Meanwhile, the Democrats in Congress continue to get their paychecks. And they say they’re doing this. They say they were doing this. Because of the way ICE treats illegal immigrants. Well, they don’t put it that way. They say that you’re locking up American citizens because for them, illegal immigrants and American citizens are one and the same. They say there’s no clear mission. Not only that, they explained time and time and time again this administration what the mission is. They don’t even have to explain it to us. We know exactly what the mission is to take out this regime before it takes us out. It’s that simple. Chuck Schumer says we bumbled into a war. Does it look like we bumbled into a war? Hakeem Jeffries says the war will, quote, end in failure. While we have men and women on the battlefield, the war will end in failure. Is that the way it looks to you, America? The Democrat Party is giving aid and comfort to the enemy. Through its statements, through its actions. And the truth is, the war could go faster. Excuse me. If they saw a united country, but they don’t. But they don’t. Now we’re told the gas prices have gone up $0.25. We hear this constantly now by our media. Gas prices have gone up $0.25. You know, ladies and gentlemen, I’m embarrassed by our media. And the people who try to exploit. This military campaign, which I call a peace mission. Gas prices have gone up $0.25 a gallon. We don’t even have a draft. As we’ve had in past. Major award. There’s no draft. The vast majority of we, the people are utterly unaffected by this war. Maybe $0.25 a gallon. The vast majority of us. As our war fighters are over there, kick in the ass of the Islamo Nazis in a spectacular military campaign. I don’t think we’ve seen anything like this before. We’re not making great sacrifices here. $0.25 a gallon. We’re not making great sacrifices here. Well, we’re too there were strict rationing of gasoline and sugar and meat and tires and and metal of all kinds. They had wage and salary controls, you know, for most people. Their wages were capped by the government at $25,000. That’s it. We had executive order 9066 in 1942 where FDR put 120,000 Japanese in concentration camps. We don’t have any of that going on, nor should we. Nor should we. But the Democrats are rooting for us to lose. They’re trying to dispirit the American people and our military personnel. They’re trying to create disunity. That’s what they’re doing. It’s grotesque. And I watch this guy Newsom. Attacking our commander in chief were cheap shots left and right, then attacking our allies, the Israelis. An apartheid state. He must be talking about all those Arab Muslim countries surrounding Israel. It’s funny how Newsom hasn’t talked to the Christians there, the Muslims there, the Druze there, the Arabs there. No, no. An apartheid state, he says, spewing. Some of the most horrendous Jew hatred out there, because that’s that’s how you get the nomination now and the Democrat Party. These are our allies. We’re fighting side by side. The president, the secretary of state, the secretary war. The three most crucial individuals in this war, as well as the director of the CIA. They’ve all celebrated this alliance. Celebrated this alliance. They’re not the Democrats. Not the Democrats. There’s also something else going on out there that’s pretty sick. I want to play one of these for you now. This is Chris MATTHEWS. I thought he was banned from TV for bad behavior. But there is showing up on. I guess it’s Marcellus LSD on the morning show show. Hat tip NewsBusters. Now this is being repeated again and again and again. And writing and videos. On TV. Cut 21, Go. The president was giving out medals and acting like they were just sitting there to applaud him. They had no role in war making or decisions about war. Don’t Republicans think that Congress is Article one in the Constitution, that they have a role in making war? Stop right there. No, they don’t have a role in making war. I’ve explained this a thousand times, and I’ll keep explaining it. The word make war. That phrase was in the original draft and was removed. Would declare war. Make war belongs to the Commander in chief under Article two. Every president has known that. But this. Nimrod. They dragged back. God knows why. Doesn’t know what the hell he’s talking about. Go ahead. Bush and the war was Mark Levin on Friday night before we attacked. He was pushing for a big war. He wanted what he wanted. He got it. But I never heard a big debate in the United States Congress about this war. And I think it seems like that’s enough. So it’s Mark Levin’s war. Mark Levin’s war. You can see the the radical kooks on the left like the radical woke Reich. Ah, I see. H. Isolationists and Jew haters like Megyn Kelly to Mark Levin’s war. And Ben SHAPIRO. And Lindsey Graham and Josh Hammer. You know, but Mark Levin in particular, you know, this is his war. I am proud of what this president is doing. I am proud of what our secretary of state and secretary of war are doing. And our CIA director. I am proud of our men and women in uniform. I am proud of as our Israeli allies and the Prime minister and their military. I am proud of the Persian people. They are the ones who initiated this. I am proud of all the people, all the organizations, all the countries are trying to defeat one of the most vile. Homicidal, dangerous regimes since the beginning of humanity. Can you imagine them with nuclear weapons? See what they’re doing right now? Can you imagine? No, you can’t, because it’s unimaginable. These are monsters. I want to be as clear as I know how. No amount of attacking me and calling me the worst names possible. And I might add, and I’m not going to get into detail. No amount of threats against me are going to change who I am and what I believe. Nothing. Nothing. I’m a red blooded American. My family’s been here 120 years, more than most other families, quite frankly. And this regime needed to be taken out because it killed over a thousand Americans. It maimed thousands and thousands of Americans. It spreads terror in our country and all over the world. It is plotting with nuclear weapons to take us out. And they will do it because their mindset is a seventh century fundamentalist Islamist massive killer mindset. And I push back against the 1930s type isolationists and Nazis, and I’ve pushed back against the Islamists and I’ve pushed back against the Marxist. You can put that on my my epithet. That’s perfectly fine. But it’s this president of the United States. More than any before him and likely after him. Who has the guts to do what needs to be done? He could have passed it on to the next president, the next generation, but he knew better. $0.25 a gallon of gasoline. Is that what we have to pay? Seriously? Ask the Iranian people what they’ve paid. Ask the Israeli people what they’ve paid. And the families of the people who’ve been slaughtered by this Iranian regime and their proxies. What they’ve paid. And look at your children and grandchildren tonight. Look at them. Because what Donald Trump is doing means they will never, ever have to fear a nuclear attack. From this enemy. Because he stood up our generation, at least half of it. And said, No way, Jose, That ain’t going to happen. Not on our watch. I’ll be right back.

Segment 2
President Trump today, or I should say yesterday, got one go and once again, calling on all members of the Iranian Revolutionary Guard, the military and the police to lay down their arms, they’re only going to be killed. And now is the time to stand up for the Iranian people and help take back your country. You’re going to have a chance after all these years to take back your country, except immunity will give you immunity and we’ll be giving you really the right side of history, because that’s what it is. So you’ll be. Perfectly safe with total immunity or you’ll face absolutely guaranteed death. And I don’t want to see that. They don’t want to see it either. We also urge Iranian diplomats around the world to request asylum and to help us shape a new and better Iran with great potential as a country with great potential, as much better future for Iran is now beginning. It’s going to be, I think, a great future. And the United States will ensure that whoever leads the country next, Iran will not threaten America or its neighbors. Israel, anybody. Hmm. Cut to go. The United States military, together with the wonderful Israeli partners, continues to totally demolish the enemy, far ahead of schedule and at levels that people have never seen before. Actually, we’re destroying more of Iran’s missiles and drone capability every single hour, knocking them out like nobody thought was possible. As soon as they set off a missile, within 4 minutes, the launcher gets hit. They don’t know what’s happening. But we have the greatest military anywhere in the world. Their Navy is gone. 24 ships in three days. That’s a lot of ships. Their anti-aircraft weapons are gone. So they have no air force. They have no air defense. Let me just say, this is not only one of the greatest presidents in history already. He’s one of the greatest commanders in chief in American history, no question about it. We’ll be right back.

Segment 3
The Democrats tell the media that tap dance and immediate tap dance. Sometimes the media tell the Democrats to tap dance and the Democrats tap dance. And so Caroline Levitt says the same question five or six days in a row. What are our objectives? What’s the mission? Now we all know what the objective of the mission is to take out the regime, to take out its ballistic missiles and anything related to nuclear weapons. Right. And to have some role in ensuring that what replaces it isn’t going to be hostile to the United States and helpful to the people they’ve been slaughtering. Now, that’s the objective. And then I love the next question. Well, how can we be sure it’s going to work? We can’t. Be sure. We can be sure they’re going to be defeated. But what do they mean, That it’s going to work? If you have all the answers before. The first bullet is fired. Show me. Show me the war in which that’s occurred. Folks, we should be celebrating what’s going on, celebrating this incredible achievement, celebrating our technology and our. And our industries that can bring us these kinds of weapons. Nobody has this. And one of the reasons we don’t need ground troops is because of the genius. Of American innovation. If we didn’t have missiles like this, jets, like we have bombers, like we have other sorts of munitions. If we didn’t have such a technological edge on not just the Iranians but the Russians and the Chinese to. We would have to have massive ground forces, but we don’t. Because of what we have done. Again. We should be celebrating our troops. Our commander in chief. The relevant Cabinet members. Our ally, Israel. We should be celebrating what’s taking place. If you’re the communist Chinese, you’re worried a lot. If you’re Russia, you’re worried a lot. Why is it. That the people who oppose what we’re doing are the Marxists, the Islamists, the woke Reich, neo fascist. The Russians, the Communist Chinese and the Democrats. And the Democrats. So here’s Caroline Levin for the 4000 time in five days. Cut. Three. Go. I won’t get ahead of the president on broadcasting any timelines. What I will tell you is what President Trump has already laid out, which is that the actions of minute what if we had a timeline? Would we announce that to the enemy? Are these people nuts? Are they nuts? You know, they didn’t go after Biden and that debacle to get out of Afghanistan. He gave a time limit. He told the enemy exactly when we’re going to be leaving, what day we’re going to be leaving. And the enemy attacked us and killed 13 of our brave men and women and God knows how many were injured and killed in enormous number of Afghanis at the same time. You don’t announce in advance how long anything is going to take. The idiocy of what we deal with. Go ahead, Bree. We expect to last about 4 to 6 weeks, and we are well on our way to achieving those objectives, annihilating Iran’s Navy. We know that we’ve sunk sunk more than 30. Our president said it’ll be as long as it needs to be. Whatever it is, it is. Go ahead. Their Navy has now been deemed combat ineffective. Taking out the ballistic missile threat. That’s a good thing. All that metal will be at the bottom of the sea where they can have, you know, most of the like coral growing people like coral, don’t they? Fish like coral. You know. Go ahead. Posed to the United States and our troops and bases in the region. We have done a tremendous job. The United States military has done a tremendous job at achieving that objective thus far. Mm hmm. Yep, yep, yep, yep, yep, yep. Then we have this foreign minister, by the way. I can’t wait, though. His day comes, I don’t know when it will or if it will, but. He’s one of the last remaining of the. The senior staff are the how many? Pronounced. I think our Geechee. Yabba dabba. Cut five. Go. Minister, you said that that Iran cannot reach U.S. soil. Right. The American homeland with the weapons that you have right now. Is there any other way that Americans should be concerned that Iran could attack? All right. All right. This is just so you believe this threat. Asking the enemy, what else should Americans be? The reason he’s on these networks is he’s doing propaganda. And even if he goes on shows of my friends, I don’t think he has. This is propaganda. Propaganda. It’s just crazy. And then what should we be afraid of? What should be afraid if. Go ahead. No, they have enough bases around the. So we should go further than that. They have enough soldiers. They have enough, you know, military assets and they have enough military bases and military installations. So we don’t need to go beyond that. Hmm. Cat six. Go. Are you afraid of a U.S. invasion in your country? No. We are rooting for them. You are waiting for the US military to invade the ground troops? Yes. Because you are confident that we can confront them. And that would be a big disaster for them. First of all, there is not going to be any such thing. So stupid question from a stupid guy. That’s why he works for NBC News. Nobody would brains. In this company in. Nobody with brains in this company. Right, Mr. Producer. Are you worried about an invasion in your country? There’s not going to be an infantry invasion for the reasons I just said. And by the way, it’s unnecessary. Absolutely unnecessary. Sir John Fetterman is on with this. Mehdi Hassan’s Mehdi Hasan As a Jew hating, American hating. I would argue jihadi Islamists. That’s what I would argue. And you can go on the Internet, put in his name, and you’ll see what a scumbag this guy is. And he’s in our country. And I don’t know if he’s a citizen or not. He ought to be deported if he’s a naturalized citizen. They should naturalism and kick his ass out of here. Then I’m not kidding. So here’s Prem Tacker, whatever the hell that is. Cat seven Go. I was wondering what you made of the Department of War sinking of an Iranian naval ship today. Oh, I want to. I want to offer condolences to your boss. I know you helped broke up about you. Ha ha ha. He has Fetterman. That’s funny. His boss, you know. Mehdi Hasan. So they must have. What do they do? Corner him and put a microphone in his faces. Oh, that’s what it was on Capitol Hill. Go ahead. Let’s go. Who’s our boss? Who’s our boss? Huh? You’re offering your condolences to my boss. Yeah, I know what I’m. What I’m saying, though, it’s like I know who you work for. It’s very anti-Israel. We just ignore the humanitarian loss. They just report on humanitarian law, sir. The Islamist, the. That’s right. They’re just humanitarians. You don’t understand. And this humanitarian a.k.a scumbag is Prem Thakur. Go ahead. It’s real. And I’m very pro-Israel, so we can agree to disagree on things. Sure. Do you think it’s okay for the U.S. to bomb an Iranian naval ship in international waters? I think I think the world is better than. They were quiet in a weird way. What about the naval ship today? What about that naval ship? What do you think? What do you think about that naval ship, for God’s sake? I don’t know, you little bastard. What do you think about all the terrorists that. That you’re a hero let loose on the planet? And killed us. Our people. Europeans, Africans, Middle Easterners. What do you think about that? Adolf. What do you think about. Oh, no, no. You blow up that in international waters. Oh, they’re trying to assassinate our president here in our own country. Unless Jack’s worried about. Oh, you hit. And guess what that boat was doing. It was making a run for it. In international waters. Oh, we can’t touch them there. No. They’re shooting ballistic missiles. I think they’ve shot him into 14 countries now. 14 countries. They’re shooting ballistic missiles. With weapons on these ballistic missiles. That they’re in violation of international law. They’re committing war crimes in and tracks worrying about us hitting a ship in international water. Could they make a run for the international? You can hit. Of course we can. Of course we can. There’s nothing illegal about that to an enemy ship. Go ahead. If they think it’s a good idea. Disagree. Agree on that. They believe it is okay for the U.S. to bomb naval ships without a declaration of war. Yes, it is. Next question, you little schmuck. Go ahead. I’m sorry. I support killing the Iranian leadership. I’m not talking about the leadership. So I wasn’t upset about the way they killed all the Iranians. He wasn’t angry. Who is he really bothered by that? Mary Hassan, you schmuck. You work for him. He gives you a paycheck, is my understanding. He owns the company that T.O. reported. Oh, yes. They’re very, very journalistic, you know, very independent. The voice of the enemy. But you know what? We got Democrats throughout the House, Democrats throughout the Senate say the same thing. Say the same thing. Is this Nimrod? Same thing. I’ll be right back.

Segment 4
What’s the mission? What’s the mission? Khamenei’s dead. The senior leadership is dead. Their nuclear sites, their new ones done, their ballistic missiles and launchers, almost done. Their drones and drone launches are almost done. And the Democrats know what the mission is as the mission is being carried out in a spectacular way, one step after the other. Hey, what’s the mission? The mission is being done right in front of your eyes. What do you mean? What’s the mission? And then they want to know, well, what happens after the mission? Well, we’re going to try and ensure that there is a government there that is not hostile to us. And is humane enough that they’re not slaughtering their own people. That’s the mission. Am I missing something, Mr. Minister? What’s the mission? Now the point is their mission. Which is Operation Sabotage. That’s the mission. Operation Sabotage. They’re on the same side as the Russians, the Communist Chinese and the other miscreants who malcontents in our own country. What’s the mission? You know, it’s funny. They know what the mission is. The Russians and the Communist Chinese. They know what their mission is. The Iranian regime knows what the mission is, but the Democrats don’t know what the mission is. They’re liars. Their leaders and their unpatriotic. Unpatriotic on top of everything else. Ask Khamenei what the mission is. Oh, you can’t. He’s dead. It’s the senior leadership. But the mission is. Oh, you can’t. They’re dead. 90% of their ballistic missile launches are at. Oh, maybe that’s part of the mission. They’re going after the drone launch. Maybe that’s part of the mission, too. You never know. The Russians know what the mission is. The communist Chinese know what the mission is. Our military knows what the mission is. The enemy knows what the mission is. But the Democrats don’t know what the mission is. The question I have is what is the Democrat Party’s mission? What is their mission? We’re just asking questions. So we haven’t heard that before, have we, America? No. No, we haven’t heard that before. What’s the mission? The mission is. Being significantly accomplished as I speak. As I speak. Does the Democrat officials and the Democrat Party, I ask you a question Why are you siding with the enemy? Why are you doing their dirty work here at home? Why are you trying to dispirit our troops and dis unite our country? Why are you trying to prevent us from finishing the mission? With phony claims of the War Powers Act. Why are you claiming that the Constitution was violated when every single Democrat president since 1973 has said the War Powers Act is unconstitutional and you agreed with them? And where do you get off saying that Congress has to approve a war? Which of the framers said that? Where does the Constitution say that? Where does the history surrounding the Constitution say that? Nowhere. Nowhere and nowhere again. They’re giving aid and comfort to the enemy. They know they can rely on the Democrat Party. I mean, after all, some of our enemy, they’ve spent a lot of money getting some of these people elected. Destroying our educational system. Paying for junkets for so-called journalists. And of course, paying for influencers who can’t influence anyone over a damn thing. Not over a damn thing. After all, Mr. Producing. They’re saying it’s my war. That I launched the war. Which is it? Mark has no influence. The mark launched the war. These people are contemptible. For them. It’s too difficult to get behind our armed forces, to get behind the commander in chief who has power at all costs. And they are hoping, hoping that there are big hiccups or worse. They really are. I’ll be right back.
