Hello, America. Mark Levin, our numbers 877-381-3811-877-381-3811. We have two candidates an hour, three.

Kelly Shabaka, the conservative, backed by the Republican part of Alaska for the Senate seat there. And Adam Lacksall, whose grandfather was a senator and governor in Nevada, he's making great headway there, but it's a tight race, a tough race.

And he's trying to take out a radical left-wing Democrat, and so have both of them in hour three. But this is hour one.

And we'll get into all these debates that took place yesterday. I know other people have spoken about them. I haven't heard them, but you haven't heard from me yet.

But before we do, I want to talk about bread and butter issues. I want to talk about what's affecting you directly.

Jackie Heinrich strikes me as a terrific reporter over there at the White House. And John Kirby, they moved that propagandist who defended all the moves in Afghanistan over to the White House.

But he's a white male. I believe he's a straight white male who has, in many respects, taken over on major issues for the current press secretary, who, of course, is not a straight white male.

This question that she asks may sound familiar to you. Since we pushed it into the national conversation, about 10 days ago, and it's very, very important, maybe it was a week ago.

Let's see, no, 10 days ago. Cut 19, go!

What are we doing to increase the supply of diesel given that the Energy Information Administration said, as of October 14th, the US only had about a 25-day supply, you have Northeastern and New York already rationing home heating oil, what are we doing to prepare for the winter to ramp up supply of diesel?

I'll take the question on the diesel because I just don't have the data on that in front of me. So let me take that and we'll get back to you on that.

Let me get that. That article was October 14th, that Energy Information Administration. It wasn't on all the internet, and I had to dig it out because that's what I do, and I dug it out. And there it was, the Energy Information Administration, EIA, because every now and then I go there to see what the status is of various types of fossil fuels or electricity.

And there it was blaring, 25 days left of diesel fuel, which runs almost everything in this country. I know most of you use gasoline, but our trucks use diesel fuel, our assembly lines use diesel fuel, and on and on and on. 25 days left.

Now what's going to happen is it's going to turn out to be baby formula crisis, the tampon crisis, all of a sudden, oh wow, I don't know, it's the, you know, it's the Ukrainians, the whole world, you know, that crap.

When we were energy independent two years ago, and we had a hell of a lot more diesel than we have today. Kirby has no answer. You want to know why he has no answer? Because they're not been paying attention to it.

You want to know why else he has no answer? What's the answer? The problem is this administration. The problem is this president. The problem is this ideology, this phony climate change ideology. Isn't it interesting to you folks?

The Democrats aren't running on climate change. Have you heard anybody, Mr. producer? No. You want to know why they're not running on climate change?
