Show Notes
On Friday’s Mark Levin Show, we should never surrender American sovereignty to international bodies like the International Criminal Court because we don’t want unelected foreign judges, many of whom come from systems that do not share our standards of due process and civil liberties, to have the power to prosecute our citizens, soldiers, president, vice president, or other government officials. This same principle has guided Israel's opposition to efforts to prosecute Benjamin Netanyahu, and that people like Zohran Mamdani embrace a form of globalism that places international institutions above national sovereignty, which is fundamentally incompatible with America's constitutional system. Meanwhile, there have been a series of bomb threats targeting Orthodox Jewish schools and public schools in Jewish neighborhoods in Brooklyn. These incidents receive too little national attention and are becoming normalized. Also, while media competition has expanded with podcasts and streaming, the Mark Levin show affiliates have helped us grow across radio and digital platforms, allowing us to reach audiences in more ways than ever. This midterm election is critically important, and this program is focused on the issues, the candidates, and turnout rather than turning it into a committee discussion. Later, who cares if the execution of the Fort Hood killer should be streamed? He had his due process, he's been sitting there for years, and he's lived a lot longer than he should have under the circumstances. If people want to watch it, they can watch it; if they don't want to watch it, they don't have to; just carry out the sentence and be done with it. Finally, Asra Nomani calls in and explains that what began as French students protesting overcrowded schools, teacher shortages, and poor learning conditions has evolved into a broader movement supported and amplified by a network of labor unions, communist and socialist organizations, political parties, activist groups, and international media outlets. Nomani identified a network of 50 organizations involved in mobilizing demonstrations, organizing strikes, and promoting the protests globally, with groups linked to far-left political causes, Palestinian activism, and anti-capitalist movements playing prominent roles.

On Friday’s Mark Levin show, Rich Valdes fills in for Mark. Zohran Mamdani is an example of what can happen when voters make the wrong choice. His Socialist agenda could spread to other states if voters do not become more engaged. This election is a choice between advancing President Trump’s America First agenda and allowing progressive candidates to gain more influence. The next two years will either be gridlock or green lights. We must act as though we are behind in order to make a difference and help shape the next phase of America. Every American has a role in shaping the future of the country and must decide what kind of America they want future generations to inherit. Also, will the real Ilhan Omar please stand up? New reporting shows that her birth name is Ilhan Nur Said Elmi, the same surname as Ahmed Nur Said Elmi, the man she married and who many believe is her brother. Benefit of the doubt is off the table for Omar, Abdul El-Sayed, or anyone else in the Islamist orbit after so many lies, from Gaza's human-shield denials to the UNRWA scandal. Later, Democrats are sending Bill and Hillary Clinton to Florida to rescue their candidates, with the former president complaining that Muslims are being denigrated. The real problem was never ordinary Muslims. It is the Islamists and their regime in Iran, from Ayatollah Khomeini to Mahmoud Ahmadinejad to Abbas Araghchi, that has oppressed the Persian people for decades. Afterward, Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez rallies in Maine for Senate candidate Troy Jackson, claiming the Iran war is being paid for with Americans’ health care and promising day-one investigations into every Trump agency if Democrats win the House. Government exists to protect Americans from their enemies, not to hand out health care, and AOC has passed almost nothing in her years in Congress. Learn more about your ad choices.

On Thursday’s Mark Levin Show, France serves as a warning that civilization is not immortal. Western countries have ignored signs of social and cultural decline for decades. Nations that admit or tolerate people who hate their societies risk undermining their own survival. A civilization cannot survive if it continually weakens itself by welcoming people who oppose its values and interests. France’s unrest is partly the result of allowing in people hostile to the country; Britain faces a similar danger, and the United States could experience the same fate if it follows a similar path. Also, since Dearborn, Michigan will overwhelmingly support Abdul El-Sayed, it is critical for voters across the rest of Michigan to turn out, vote early or submit ballots, and encourage family, friends, and community members to do the same. This election will affect the future of the country and future generations. Republicans need to stay focused on winning elections and not be distracted by internal disputes. Democrats are tied to extremists, Marxists, and groups that threaten the country. Most Americans love their country, support the Constitution, oppose open borders, and reject policies that would weaken the nation's system. Meanwhile, Democrats are fighting efforts to clean up voter rolls, even as the Justice Department identifies 20,000 ineligible voters who received ballots in California and the case lands before Judge David Carter, who has already shown open hostility to the DOJ. Attorney General Todd Blanche asks why no one in California wants to fix it. Finally, Katie Zacharia joins the show and describes traveling with President Trump on his midterm blitz through Alaska, Arizona, and Montana, with rallies as packed as 2024, and points to the Alaska LNG pipeline and new energy projects as real results. She points to Gavin Newsom's record in California, from the train to nowhere to the nation's worst literacy rate and highest energy prices, and warns that Democrats would turn the weaponized legal system on ordinary Americans. Holding the Senate is critical to confirming judges and justices who will defend the Constitution. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
On Wednesday’s Mark Levin Show, we need to continue to reach people across the country and around the world to help turn out voters, clarify the mission, and encourage participation in the election, regardless of polls, surveys, commentators, or experts. The ultimate decision about the country's future rests with the American people, not pollsters. Election predictions have shifted from expectations of a sweeping Democrat victory to increasing uncertainty among so-called experts. We need to vote early, and bring friends, family, and members of their social and religious communities to vote as well. Also, the U.S. administration has directed embassies in Arab states across the Middle East to reduce personnel, while a reported lengthy meeting took place between Secretary Pete Hegseth and Benjamin Netanyahu. Israeli jets have been flying through Syrian and Iraqi airspace up to Iran’s border, testing conditions and keeping Iran on high alert, and that a third carrier has been deployed, which suggests that something is stirring. Iran appears to be moving equipment, uranium, or other assets to hardened locations, which proves that it is not backing down. Later, the Constitution was designed around enduring principles, protecting individual liberty from federal government intrusion while originally leaving most matters involving individual rights to the states. The Bill of Rights initially applied only to the federal government and was later extended to the states through Supreme Court decisions. Abdul El-Sayed is a Constitutional liberate, who is misrepresenting originalism and the Second Amendment by focusing on muskets rather than the broader constitutional right to bear arms. Afterward, millions of people are leaving blue states for red states because nothing is cheaper in blue states. They have higher costs for electricity, gasoline, housing, food, and property taxes. What do Democrats offer on affordability? Finally, Gov Greg Abbott calls in explains that CAIR and the Muslim Brotherhood pose a great danger, which is why he designated them as foreign terrorist organizations. Yet CAIR supports his opponent, Gina Hinojosa. If elected Hinojosa would have serious consequences for Texas and the country. Texans need to get out and vote. Learn more about your ad choices.

On Tuesday’s Mark Levin Show, CNN is the Al-Jazeera of America. They have become closely aligned with and financially influenced by Qatar. CNN quietly removed highly favorable language about Qatar from promotional materials for its upcoming Global Perspectives forum in Doha after scrutiny. Qatar uses its money to buy influence across media, universities, politics, and public institutions, while promoting its interests through outlets such as Al Jazeera and relationships with organizations like Hamas and the Muslim Brotherhood. CNN’s Qatar-backed events, Doha bureau, and revised conference agenda demonstrate that the network has compromised its journalistic independence. CNN has effectively become a vehicle for advancing Qatari interests rather than operating as an independent news organization. Meanwhile, a movement called “Chaos, Inc.” has expanded to 101 organizations across nine countries that are coordinating, organizing, or amplifying protests in Europe and potentially the United States. These groups are connected through a Marxist-Islamist alliance, involving Antifa, Code Pink, and other left-wing activist networks, and are being funded and supported by the Chinese Communist Party, Qatar, and billionaire Neville Roy Singham. Later, Dr James Lindsay calls in and explains that the National Conservatism (NatCon) movement is attempting to replace constitutional and classical liberal conservatism with a new collectivist ideology centered on loyalty, nationalism, and state-directed notions of the common good. NatCon and its allies attack foundational influences such as John Locke, mischaracterize supporters of the Constitution as “liberals,” and promote a vision that subordinates individual liberty to national or collective interests. The movement advocates greater state involvement in economic, social, religious, and personal affairs under the banner of the common good, which he says resembles socialist or Marxist methods despite different goals. Finally, Rep Monica De La Cruz calls in to discuss her congressional race in South Texas, where redistricting has made 80% of her district new territory despite her incumbency. The district was designed to lean Republican, but economic concerns such as affordability and immigration remain top issues, and many Hispanic voters are relatively new to the Republican Party.

On Monday’s Mark Levin Show, Americans have a crucial opportunity to reject the path that France, Belgium, and Britain have taken and to do so through voting, particularly by turning out in large numbers during early voting and on Election Day. The social and political conditions in parts of Europe could spread if left unchecked. This election is about protecting liberty, honoring the sacrifices of previous generations, maintaining the American melting pot, and ensuring that cultural and religious traditions coexist without being imposed on society through intimidation, violence, or coercion. Also, PM Benjamin Netanyahu is a crucial ally in the fight against Islamists, Marxists, and left-wing leadership in Europe and the United States. The United States and Israel cannot afford to lose this battle; we need to stand shoulder to shoulder with Israel and support militaries willing to fight persistent enemies, despite criticism from the left and isolationists. Later, Rep Scott Perry calls in to discuss his highly competitive swing district where Democrats and major donors have spent heavily to defeat him. Perry explains that he is defending the Constitution, fights government spending and national debt, and protects freedoms and privacy. Afterward, France’s recent student protests have expanded beyond school-related grievances into a broader movement supported by a network of 54 organizations, including communist and socialist groups, labor unions, political movements, environmental activists, student organizations, and Palestine-solidarity groups. Many of these organizations have helped organize, support, or amplify the demonstrations, linking concerns over education, public services, austerity, policing, military spending, and broader political issues. Finally, Washington State Senate Minority Leader John Braun calls in with an update on candidacy for Washington’s 3rd Congressional District. Braun described the challenges Republicans have faced in Washington state since losing their Senate majority nine years ago. Braun’s opponent, Marie Gluesenkamp Perez, is no moderate; she has voted against lower taxes, national security funding, border security measures, parental rights, and restrictions on biological males participating in women’s sports.
