Summary

On Tuesday’s Mark Levin Show, ‘On Power’ discusses negative power, which is defined as coercion, control, and force, acting as the antithesis to individual liberty, consensual government, and civil society. It rejects biblical teachings of individual sovereignty and Enlightenment principles of distributed power, favoring centralized authority as seen in ideologies like Marxism, fascism, and authoritarian democracy. Wokeism is a modern authoritarian tool that enforces specific language and behavior, punishing non-conformity with social and professional consequences. Negative power dehumanizes individuals, viewing them as part of a collective to serve the ruling class or state, undermining personal well-being and autonomy. We need to confront and debate negative power to protect liberty and representative government. A new ruling class, the new bourgeoisie, is emerging in the U.S. and the West, defined not by wealth but by their pursuit of power. Soft negative power drives policies like controlling grocery stores, housing, or targeted taxation to consolidate influence, often at the expense of others’ freedom. This creates an authoritarian democracy, where democratic appearances mask authoritarian control. Recognizing these dynamics is key to understanding today’s power struggles. Also, former President Barack Obama should face a criminal investigation for his alleged role in efforts to undermine the 2016 election and the Trump presidency, despite claims of immunity based on a Supreme Court decision. While official presidential acts are protected, crimes like attempting a coup are not immune from prosecution after leaving office. Afterward, a look back at March 2017 when Mark Levin broke the Obama spygate scandal wide open. Later, Special Envoy Thomas Barrack told Reuters there is no evidence the Syrian government is involved in the horrendous atrocities committed against the Druze and Christians and other minorities in Syria. This is a disgrace, the evidence is everywhere. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
