2/20/26 - Unpacking the Supreme Court's Confusing Tariff Ruling

On Friday’s Mark Levin Show, the Supreme Court majority issued a very messy and problematic decision on tariffs. The fact is the majority agreed on an outcome but not so much on the reasoning for the outcome. It struck tariffs under a single statute, yet created chaos or, actually, left it to the president to decide if and/or how to treat the revenue those tariffs already created for the federal Treasury. The question is not who has the power to tax per se, but a more complicated question about where the separation of powers is. The majority, apparently, chose to duck the question and stick with the indirect tax characterization and focus on a single statute, which is outrageous. Also, Tucker Carlson is an indecent grifter with inexplicable ties to Qatar and an attraction to the Third Reich. He is gravely damaging the Republican Party, the midterm elections, and the Trump administration. Later, Jon Levine of the Washington Free Beacon calls in to explain that NYC Mayor Mamdani is fulfilling his campaign promises by staffing his administration with individuals from radical Islamist and far-left progressive circles, united by a shared hatred of the West and Jews. Mamdani is also pressuring Governor Hochul to impose a wealth tax by threatening massive property tax increases on roughly 3 million homeowners—effectively holding the entire city hostage in a "look what you made me do" tactic.

2/19/26 - Are Billionaires the Real Villains? Unpacking the Narrative

On Thursday’s Mark Levin Show, Bernie Sanders continues to display a perplexing misunderstanding of economics with his recent attacks on billionaires like Elon Musk and Mark Zuckerberg. He claims these wealthy individuals are thwarting a wealth tax measure and insists they should pay their "fair share," ignoring the fact that the top 1% already contribute over 40% of federal income taxes. Instead of fostering an informed dialogue about economic realities, Sanders resorts to Marxist and Socialist rhetoric that vilifies success and oversimplifies the complexities of wealth creation. It's high time we confront this misguided socialist perspective and recognize the vital role that successful entrepreneurs play in driving our economy forward. In addition, Tucker Carlson made a brief stop at Ben Gurion Airport in Israel to film an interview with US Ambassador Mike Huckabee without ever stepping outside the airport. Carlson lied about leaking the fact that Israeli police and staff at the airport was mistreating him, even though there is video footage of Tucker hugging people. Also, at least a dozen Democrats from both the House and Senate will skip President Trump's State of the Union address to attend a rally on the National Mall as an alternative protest against his presidency. Lastly, Rep. Bryan Steil joins the show to discuss how Democrats are trying to find ways to protect illegal aliens from getting deported, and by not passing the SAVE Act, so that illegal aliens can vote. The people need to call our senators to pass the Save Act now! Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

2/18/26 - The Truth About Processed Foods: Myths vs. Facts

On Wednesday’s Mark Levin Show, processed foods should be defended against their common portrayal as dietary villains. About 100 years ago, mass urbanization, poverty, and lack of refrigeration made fresh food scarce, expensive, and prone to spoilage or contamination in cities, leading to widespread issues like foodborne illnesses, malnutrition, and short life expectancy. Processed foods, including canning, pasteurization, and preservatives, emerged as a critical solution to feed growing populations safely and affordably, preventing starvation and reducing risks from rancid items. While some synthetic additives may have downsides, they are far safer than historical alternatives like rotten eggs or swill milk. Also, our ​military ​personnel deserve ​our ​respect ​and ​our ​gratitude. They stand ready to act on orders from President Trump to protect current and future generations from Iran. Ordinary Americans strongly support the military, unlike Marxists, Islamists, woke individuals, neo-Nazis, and isolationists. Isolationism against evils like Islamism, Communism, and fascism is suicidal. Later, decades ago Landmark Legal Foundation and other patriot lawyers litigated school choice, starting in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. They represented a black liberal state representative, Polly Williams, and her constituents in the city's poorest areas, advancing an idea originated by the late Dr. Milton Friedman. The program aimed to let money follow inner-city students—primarily minority and black children—out of failing, crime-ridden, union-controlled, government-run schools to better options, including participating private schools. Despite fierce opposition from Democrats, the NEA, AFT, NAACP, and others, the effort succeeded through multiple victories at the Wisconsin Supreme Court and twice at the U.S. Supreme Court over years. These wins, achieved alongside key colleagues and heroes, established school choice as one of the greatest civil rights victories in modern times, without which it would not exist.

2/17/26 - Peace Through Strength: The Real Deal on Iran

On Tuesday’s Mark Levin Show, Liberty’s Voice Vodcast launched today and it’s different from radio or TV. Today's first episode focused on a detailed, phrase-by-phrase breakdown of the Declaration of Independence, providing historical context and highlighting its unique, inspiring, and exceptional nature as the foundation of the nation. And contrasted it with the core ideological principles of Marxism, noting how Marxism was adapted into an Americanized form by the progressive movement in the late 1800s and early 1900s. Also, there’s confusion about the current situation with Iran, we initially thought military action was imminent but recent reports of another meeting in two weeks have created uncertainty. Iran continues repressing and killing its opposition while tightening its police state control. Any deal lifting sanctions would allow the regime to survive indefinitely, gain funds to strengthen its military and Islamist control, and lie about compliance, similar to North Korea. President Trump understands that if he does attack, he must win decisively. Later, a massive raw sewage spill is occurring in the Potomac River due to a break in a six-foot pipe on the Maryland side, dumping millions to hundreds of millions of gallons of raw sewage into the river flowing through Maryland, Virginia, and Washington, D.C. This poses serious health risks, environmental damage, and threats to people, wildlife, the regional water supply, and potentially the Atlantic Ocean. This is Democrat mismanagement—particularly by Maryland's Democrat leaders—for causing the crisis. Meanwhile, Democrats in Congress have defunded FEMA forcing its employees to coordinate cleanup efforts without pay. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

2/16/26 - Criminalizing Criticism: The Implications of Virginia's Islamophobia Legislation

On Monday’s Mark Levin Show, Rep Hakeem Jeffries is the George Wallace of our time – he opposes the principle of one person, one vote. Blue states like California, Illinois, Massachusetts, Maryland, and New Mexico have used redistricting to minimize or eliminate Republican representation, creating districts where Republican votes effectively don't count. This practice is unconstitutional, denies equal voting rights regardless of race or gender and allows federal courts to do nothing. Also, Virginia is beginning to criminalize opposition to Islam due to growing Islamist influence in Northern Virginia, where Democrats collaborate closely with Islamists on issues like zoning, school curricula, and employment. Sen Saddam Azim Salem is prioritizing a bill defining Islamophobia as a form of assault and battery, arguing it is redundant given existing hate crime enhancements that cover assaults based on religion, race, ethnicity, and other factors. Do these protections apply equally to all groups? Afterward, AOC, Gavin Newsom and Hillary Clinton trash our country overseas because they hate our country.  While our brave and patriotic military personnel stationed overseas are protecting the free world, they give aid and comfort to our enemies. And none of them have done anything for the betterment of our country. Later, tomorrow is the premiere of Mark’s new video podcast - Liberty’s Voice. This will complement the radio show and Fox TV program, aiming to expand reach, overlap audiences, and amplify the message.  Finally, Lt Gov Dan Patrick calls in to explains that Carrie Prejean Boller has been removed from President Trump’s Religious Liberty Commission.  No member of the Commission has the right to hijack a hearing for their own personal and political agenda on any issue.
