Summary

On Thursday’s Mark Levin Show, the reporting of a ceasefire between Israel and Lebanon is perplexing because Israel is not at war with the Lebanese government or army but is instead trying to destroy Hezbollah in Lebanon, which is effectively an extension of Iran. There is concern is that Hamas, Hezbollah, and the Iranian regime may survive by the time President Trump leaves office, though there is no reason for Hezbollah to survive at all given its history of attacks. Also, what is Trump doing that is so irreligious, especially when the United States is in a position to act against a terrorist Islamist regime that slaughters tens of thousands of its own people, rapes, murders, tortures, and plans to hang four young people, including a woman, for nothing. No major faith—Catholicism, Christianity, Judaism—teaches non-involvement or passivity in the face of such evil. Rather than raising doubts about righteous actions, spiritual leaders should speak out against these evils. Later, Chris Rufo calls in and reveals that California under Gov Gavin Newsom experienced at least $30 billion in annual fraud, with the main areas being the Medi-Cal program, unemployment insurance and roughly 25% fraud in various social programs like homelessness, autism, and in-home care services. Rufo also reveals that California provides sex-change procedures to homeless illegal aliens. Finally, Rep Clay Fuller, who won the congressional seat previously held by Marjorie Taylor Greene, calls in explains that Trump’s early endorsement was the key factor in his victory. He immediately joined the Sharia Free America Caucus and signed on for the Save American Act, viewing the spread of Sharia law and non-assimilating communities as a grave threat to the Constitution and founding principles, similar to Europe’s no-go zones and suicide of immigration.
