Rough transcription of Hour 1

Segment 1
Hello, America. Mark Levin here. Our number, 877-381-3811. 877-381-3811. Man, oh man of Chevitz. There’s a lot to get to, all kinds of disparate things going on, and yet some things don’t seem to change much depending on what that thing is. I wasn’t even going to mention this, but I just saw some post somebody sent to me with Piers, uh, Morgan and Megyn Kelly. And of course the subject is Israel. It never ends. Apparently there’s nothing else to discuss. Comes to Tucker Katarlson, it’s Israel. Comes to Candace Owens, it’s Jews and Israel. Comes to that idiot Joe Rogan. Jews and Israel, and on and on and on. And yet these people have absolutely no brain power to discuss this stuff at all. They don’t know any history, let alone ancient history. None whatsoever. I’ll give you a perfect example. This guy Piers Morgan says, and I paraphrase, I don’t have it in front of me, but I have answered it on social media. You know this thing about Israel, uh, they say they have a biblical right to any land that they occupy or want to occupy. Something along those lines. Is that the one? Is that the way it works? Is that actually what’s going on? So let me, let me wrestle with this. It’s not hard with one arm tied behind my back. Let’s look at Great Britain. Does anybody ever discuss the legitimacy of Great Britain’s sovereignty of its boundaries? No. I mean, some do. Some of those that want to, uh, break away from England, some of the Scots, some in Wales, certainly Northern Ireland. Wales was annexed by England in the 1600s. Scotland was annexed by England in the early 1700s. Northern Ireland was annexed by England in the 1920s. Great Britain, does anybody ever challenge this? I mean, when you are talking about Britain, Great Britain, do you ever say, hey, that is not a legitimate country with legitimate boundaries? Nobody ever says that. Well, why not? You know, in our country from 1845 to 1849, we had a great president by the name of James Polk, who believed in Manifest Destiny. He’s attacked as a white racist and the rest from the left. But here’s the truth. California, Oregon, Washington State. He annexed Texas, Utah, Nevada, New Mexico, Colorado and two or three other states, I can’t remember off the top of my head in a four year period. What do you think of that? Do we occupy those states? Remember I wrote a book called American Marxism and we had people, professors I guess, teaching students that, yes, we occupy that that much of it belongs to Mexico. But we do not take that seriously, do we? These are not issues that are brought up at the United nations, are they? We would laugh it off, would we not? And yet to hear Piers Morgan and Megyn Kelly, the Jewish people occupy those parts, those parts of Israel where they live today. And according to Piers Morgan, if they decide to occupy other lands, we are supposed to acknowledge it and recognize it because they claim it is biblical. Now a couple of things about this. Israel is not taking and occupying anything. He gave the Sinai to the Egyptians despite the fact that they were attacked and it was a buffer. They gave Gaza, which was Israeli, to the Palestinians. And through the decades, foolishly, in my view, they made offer after offer after offer, particularly under left wing prime ministers to chop up their country and give it to the Palestinians. Bill Clinton even talks about how ridiculous Arafat was and who is Arafat? Born in Egypt. Where’d this word Palestinian come from? It came from the KGB and the Russians. The whole thing is a farce. The so called Palestinians who are Arab Bedouins, the vast majority of them lived in what’s called Jordan. There is no west bank, it’s Judea and Samaria, no west bank of Jordan. And I could go on and on and on, but Piers Morgan and Megyn Kelly apparently think this is superfluous, that these damn Jews in the Middle east, they keep going to the Bible. Well, what did the British go to? The Jewish people were in what is called Israel, the Holy Land, before there was a Great Britain, thousands of years before there was a Great Britain, thousands and thousands of years before there was a United States. But nobody challenges the fact from 1845 to 1849 that we defeated the Mexicans, we were annexing territory and so forth and so on. We sure as hell aren’t going to give it to anybody. We go to war to defend our boundaries, our sovereignty. We argue for our sovereignty. Right now. The British do the same thing. They fought for years in Northern Ireland, years. And you have these separatist movements even now in Wales and Scotland and so forth. If the Jews don’t have a claim to the Holy Land, certainly Britain doesn’t have a claim to anything. And we don’t either. And I’m just making the point how stupid these arguments are, how anti Semitic these arguments are. Because the next point is you could be anti Zionist and not be anti Semitic. What is a Zionist? Anybody know? It’s easy to look up these days. It simply means a Jewish homeland, that the Jews get to live where they Lived historically not a thousand years ago, 4,000 years ago. They were pushed out at some point, at, ah, multiple points. Some always survived and stayed back. Whether it was the Babylonians, whether it was the Persians, whether it was the Romans, whether it was the Ottoman Empire, whether it was the British, whether it’s the Palestinians. There’s no denying the history. That’s why they’re forced to point to the Bible. That’s why they’re forced to point to the Torah. Because their sovereignty is being challenged. Their very existence or their country’s challenge. We don’t get involved in that. Nobody’s going to challenge it. Why? Because we’re bing and strong. We’re the number one superpower in the world. We tell people to screw off. Don’t bother us with your stupid arguments now. This stuff is taught in our colleges. Don’t get me wrong. I wrote the book American Marxism. I hope you read it. Britain doesn’t take serious any challenge to its sovereignty over Scotland or Wales or Northern Ireland. They don’t take any. They don’t take that seriously. It’s never brought up at the United Nations. It’s not brought up by surrounding countries. Mexico doesn’t challenge our claim to Texas or, uh, California or Nevada or anything else. So that’s why it has to be brought up, because it’s a tiny country surrounded by 52 majority Muslim countries, most of which are Arab. Now, if I told you Egypt was a Christian country, you probably wouldn’t believe me, but it was. If I told you Syria was a Christian country, you wouldn’t believe me, but it was. If I told you Lebanon was a Christian country, you wouldn’t believe me, but it was. And Christianity existed long before Islam. Long before Islam. And Judaism existed long before Christianity. Well, why are there almost no Christians in the Middle east except Coptic Christians who are brutalized in Egypt? Brutalized. Some pockets of Christianity in the Arab world where they are brutalized. And 700,000 Christians. No, actually, I’m wrong. It’s 2 million Christians. Whatever the number is. I think it’s 700,000 Christians and 2 million Arabs, uh, some of whom are Christian, by the way, living in Israel. But here’s a bigger question for you, America. Why are these podcasters endlessly discussing this? This is sick. It is a sick obsession. A sick obsession. When I prepare for this show, there’s a zillion issues I’m looking at, mostly about America, but I have to come here all the time and deal with this. Well, Mark, you bring it up. Of course I bring it up. Because If I don’t bring it up on radio, there’s only a handful of others who will. Who else is going to do it? From sea to shining sea. I defend here Judaism, I defend here Christianity. I defend here all faiths. Actually, what I reject are Islamists and Marxists and other ists who seek to destroy humanity. I press for our country day in and day out. Have you noticed, have you noticed that these very same podcasters and whoever they are, bloggers and so forth, columnists, they’re endlessly trashing America. When is the last time they talked up our country, our military? When is the last time they’ve done that? On our 250th anniversary of the Declaration of Independence. Do they ever talk about the Declaration of Independence? Do they ever talk about the Revolutionary War? Do they know anything about the Revolutionary War? Do they know about any of the great patriots who founded this country? Do they communicate that to their vast Islamic audiences overseas? No. They keep attacking our country, giving aid and comfort to the Marxists and the Islamists, undermining our president. And then they say they are real Maga, not MAGA. They are pathetic.  I’ll be right back.

Segment 2
I don’t, I don’t get this New York Times very well. They did this long puff piece on this guy, Hassan Piker, who promotes terrorism, who celebrates 9 11. Is that good America? I’m just curious, is that the kind of person you promote as a newspaper? They are very careful not to be negative about the guy. But he has a big following, don’t you know? That’s the excuse. So did Hitler, so did Stalin, so did Mao. So what? So rather than warning America about the guy, they platform him. But that wasn’t enough. Then they go to Tucker Carlson. This long, long piece on Tucker Carlson. And why him? Why do they interview him? Because he’s attacking Trump and the Republican Party and conservatives. And even though they didn’t intend it, he comes off like the lunatic that he actually is. Very much, very much a crackpot. I’m in this guy’s walnut of a brain like nothing else. I’m in all their brains like nothing else. The whole woke right neo fascists and m. I will tell you why. Because the presence we have this show on radio and on Fox is massive. Massive. It’s the most under reported story in America. I’ll tell you about the power of podcasters, the ratings, the numbers on TV and radio aren’t perfect. But they’re pretty good in terms of knowing who and what’s listening for the podcasters. They manipulate their audience numbers. I’ve been told this by large corporations that have podcasters and my own people. And so, for instance, in the case of little Adolf Nick Fuentes, he has a massive audience overseas. So does Carlson. So do most of them. They love to hear the anti Semitism. That’s why you’re getting it. They love to hear the non stop Israel is no good talk, Netanyahu is no good talk. And they love to hear the trashing of Donald Trump, trashing him relentlessly. That is their audience. These people may be based in America, but that is their audience. When is the last time they trashed Islamism? When is the last time they showed any concern or did any programming of, uh, what is happening outside of Plano, Texas? What’s happening in Paterson, New Jersey? What’s happening in Dearborn, Michigan? What’s happening all over the country? When’s the last time they’ve done any program on any of that? Never. Never. That should tell you everything. You need to know everything more. When I return.

Segment 3
When’s the last time any of these woke Reich neo fascists did a show on um Mand? I’m serious. I can’t think of any. Can you, Mr. Producer? If they do, it’s quick. When’s the last time they did a show on Islamists slaughtering Christians in Nigeria, Sudan, Congo? We talk about this all the time. When’s the last time they did a show about the IDF going into Syria to protect Christians and Druze and other minorities? Mhm. When is the last time they did a show about just recently published reports about Hamas, the imams in Gaza raping little boys, raping widows and little girls, Hamas and selling them into slavery? They do not talk about these things. They talk about each other. They interview each other. And it is a bad habit for other podcasters out there who tend to be doing the same thing. You are going to be a blip in history. You are not even going to be a footnote to a footnote to a footnote in history because nobody is going to care. Nobody. We are losing our country, ladies and gentlemen, to the Marxist Islamists and the woke Reich. We are losing it and people are not fighting back. They are not pushing back. Some are, but not enough. Some are, but not enough. That is the truth. Donald Trump hasn’t changed. I played for you, right? On this program. September 9, 2015, what presidential candidate Trump said about the Iran deal. Iran’s not going to get any nukes, period. He said it over and over and over again. I’ve now posted that twice. It’s as if it doesn’t exist. But it does exist. That’s been the position of Donald Trump, the Republican Party, the conservative movement, and the Tea Party from the beginning. This isolationist crap from Joe Rogan and Theo, whatever the hell that other one’s name is, and the vulgarians, the rest of them, that’s never been Trump’s position. That’s never been our position, ever. That’s Iran’s position. That’s the enemy’s position. That’s the position of Bernie Sanders, a Stalinist. It is not our position. It has never been our position. And yet they make it. Oh, Trump violated his promise. No, he didn’t. He is standing up for what he said. And as president, he is doing something about it, when you really look at it. Who are these people? Who’s Joe Rogan? So nobody. What’s the other guy’s name? Theo? Do you know his last name, Rich? Theo Vaughn. What the hell is that guy? What a punk. Another comedian, Tucker Carlson, got his ass fired. I can go right down the list. Right down the list. If it wasn’t for podcasting, which you know what a podcast is, Mr. Producer? In America, you simply have a microphone and a box and a camera, and you talk. Right. Isn’t that pretty much it? Rich, Incredible invention. People started podcasting really, at the earliest in the early 2000s. Then it became increasingly popularized, then commercialized, and now it’s, uh, monetized, really, with foreign bots, foreign governments, foreign listeners and viewers. Americans are too smart for Tucker Carlson. They’re too smart for all these. These clowns who couldn’t make it in broadcasting. They couldn’t make it. They’re either fired or they’re let go. They’re controversial, they’re disgruntled. Who knows? Look at this guy, Fuentes. He could never make it. He’s got a microphone, same damn thing. He might as well wear a white sheet or, uh, put a Nazi uniform on. He can’t grow the Hitler mustache. He’s stuck. He’s stuck in pre pubescence. It’s the way it is. It’s the way it is, but that’s what’s going on. And then they go, we never supported taking out the nukes in Iraq. We’ve always supported it. None of these people were part of the conservative movement. Many of you were in the Tea Party movement. They were not there. They did not exist. They are not in convention of states which has like 10 million members. They are just fly by nights who are picking your pockets. That is it. Picking your pockets with phony numbers. Think in your pockets with phony numbers. It’s incredible. They think the only place that exists is the Internet. And yet millions of you are listening to me right now on radio, or you’re listening to live streaming on the Internet. But you’re not in a bubble on the Internet. You’re not in a cocoon on the Internet. It’s not your whole life. It’s a convenience, right? Put it on your computer, put it on your radio, put it on your iPad, whatever you put it on. Just another platform. This is where these people live, though, day in and day out, Day in and day out, all day long, all night long. So they talk to each other and they interview each other over and over and over again. How many radio hosts do, uh, I interview here, Mr. M? Almost none, right? In fact, we have a lot who asked to be interviewed, don’t they, Rich? And what do I say? No. Why would I interview another radio guy? They have their own radio show, but the podcasters interview each other because they all agree with each other and they’re hoping they can get some of the audience of the other guy, you know, Pakistan or wherever. More and more in China now, it’s a big deal for Tucker and the rest of them. That’s why when you go, what is he talking about? He’s talking to them. He’s not talking to Americans. And this is why, you see, when they take these ridiculous polls, do you support the president or Tucker Carlson? You know, President’s like 100% or 92. Carlson’s at like 6. Well, that explains it. This is the problem for him. But they can get lucrative when Muslims in Pakistan are listening, when communists in China are listening. Those are big audiences. Especially when Americans think you are a crackpot. A crackpot. Uh, all right. These things needed to be said. So there’s this long article in the New York Times. Oh, and on and on. Interview Tucker Carlson. There’s nothing new in it whatsoever. It underscores the guy’s a lunatic. In my humble opinion. He’s mentally ill and he needs help. His family needs to take him in as quickly as possible. I’m not kidding. Something’s not right. He’s still talking about the spirits that Donald Trump put spells on people. Did you see that, Mr. Producer? Donald Trump’s. You have that 25. Go ahead. Instead, you know, there were a lot of cowardly people, as there always are, and Trump engenders cowardice in the people around him through intimidation. And there is a kind of quality. Now, keep something in mind. He’s been hanging around the President to, to get goodies, you know, like Mar a Lago or the UFC or the RNC speaking, but he excludes himself. He’s not a coward. No, no, he’s a tough guy. He’s smart folks. He turned on a dime. The president had enough of him. The President excommunicated him, so now he’s. He’s a man without a country. Well, that’s not true. He has Pakistan. But you get my point. You get my point. He trashes Donald Trump. He doesn’t trash Putin. Have you noticed? He does not trash Hamas. He does not trash Hezbollah. He does not trash Iran. He trashes the President. They are all that way. They trash the President and Netanyahu. Netanyahu and the President. The President Netanyahu. They do not even know the name of the President of Iran, but they do not trash them. They don’t trash the terrorists. They don’t trash Mandami. They don’t trash this guy who’s running in, in Maine. They don’t trash the guys running in Michigan. These are hardcore jihadists and Nazis. Real, real deal. So proud they’re even putting tattoos on their own chests. They don’t trash Hasan piker, who celebrates 9, 11. I think I’ve trashed him about 4 billion times. He deserves every bit. And he has more. But have you ever heard Carlson or Kelly or Morgan? What is that? A bankrupt law firm? Have you ever heard them do it? Seriously. I’m being serious. Why not? Because birds have a feather, that’s why. Birds of a feather. When is the last time they trashed AOC or, uh, Bernie Sanders? When is the last time they showed concern in Texas for what is taking place there with the jihadist Islamists? When’s the first time? There’s a lot to talk about. There’s a great deal threatening our country. Enemies from within. But they are trashing the President and, uh, the State of Israel. State of Israel, the President. I’ll be right back.

Segment 4
All right, let me see here. Bear with me. Hold on, America. I’m getting there. I, uh, lost the screen. Mr. Producer, here we are. I want to get this story in before the hour, uh, is over. You’re not going to believe this. My wife told me about this. I couldn’t believe it. Ready for this Fox News judge apologizes to alleged would be Trump assassin drags January 6 suspects into rant over jail complaints. This is this White House correspondents dinner event. A federal judge today decried the prison treatment of President Donald Trump’s alleged would be Assassin and apologized to him for restrictive confinement imposed by the jail staff. Now, these are the people the Democrats nominate and the Democrats confirm. Cole Allen, 31, has been in federal custody since prosecutors say he attempted to gain access to the White House Correspondents association dinner ballroom and kill President Trump along with other high level government officials. We saw him try. Magistrate Judge Zia uh. Fakaruki told an attorney representing the Department of Corrections that he was fascinated and disturbed by Allen’s treatment in jail. Alan was placed on suicide watch when he was first imprisoned. Suicide watch protocols mandate that Cole remain on 24 hour lockdown in a safe cell and have no phone access to call or receive visits from anyone other than the legal team, according to the motion. His lawyers also wanted him to be able to obtain a tablet to assist in his legal defense. He was also allegedly denied a copy of the Bible, despite more than one request. Oh, wow. So sorry. Now, prosecutor Jocelyn Ballantyne reasoned that since Alan told investigators he did not expect to survive the alleged attack, he could be a danger to himself. But an incredulous magistrate Judge Farooqi wasn’t convinced by that argument, drawing comparisons ready between Allen and defense arrested for rioting at the Capitol on January 6, uh, 2021. He says to me it’s extremely disturbing that he was put in five point restraints, a person with no criminal history. Farooqi said, later adding that Allen is presumed innocent. It’s troubling. I never heard of a January 6th defendant who was put in five point restraints or in a safe cell. If the only way to keep him safe is the most punitive thing, that’s a problem. Now, of course, January 6th has nothing to do with this. He has no idea how every one of those people were treated, thousands of them. And this guy tried to break in and kill the president, among others. And this is the best this magistrate judge can do. The judge even said January 6th defendants were only housed in a correctional treatment facility, a less restrictive form of prison housing. Although we’ve heard about horrendous things that were done to these people. Pardons may erase convictions, but they don’t erase history. He said they were hanging gallows outside. So this guy, this magistrate, he’s not a full judge. This magistrate is talking about January 6th and January 6th defendants, when he’s supposed to put all of that out of his head, all prejudices, everything out of his head except the facts of the law standing right in front of him. What am I to say to Alan that this is going to be a fair process if we’re putting him in a safe cell when he’s not supposed to be in there. The magistrate judge said at a minimum I should be apologizing. I should be apologizing to him. We’re obligated to make sure he’s taken care of. Mr. Allen, I’m sorry that things have not been the way they’re supposed to be. What? What? He also addressed Allen directly. The jail is going to let him know by tomorrow morning about what’s going on with your housing situation. If not, I’m going to have more questions for them. We should be able to get you into medium portion of the jail with windows. Legal visits. Ask for legal visits. Do not accept that these things are acceptable, said Farooqi. We will get you a Bible. If we can get some vegan food we can get you a bible. We can make sure you’re not in a five point restraints too. Oh my God. Look at the federal bench. It is nuts. It is sick. Horrendous. I’ll be right back.
