The Best Of Mark Levin - 2/28/26

This week on the Mark Levin Show, the Woke Reich isolationists in the Trump administration who are leaking confidential if not classified discussions with the President respecting options against Iran are committing crimes. They must be found and prosecuted. DOJ should ask the FBI to launch an investigation into the sources of these leaks. Then, lots of Democrats are boycotting the State of the Union address. The truth is they’d be more comfortable sitting in UN seats listening to some Marxist or Islamist dictator spewing hate about our country. This is a party that accepts no traditions or customs. The Democrat Party is radical and intent on destroying the economy, citizenship, and national sovereignty. They want to dismantle the American system through policies like open borders, no deportations, treating illegal aliens as citizens, and eliminating voter ID. No more fan dancing around with Iran. They have no intention of honoring agreements and is reconstituting its nuclear program with help from allies like China, Russia, and North Korea. There is overwhelming U.S. military superiority in the region. This is not about endless wars or interventionism but confronting a clear, existential threat. Leaving this weakened regime in place betrays future generations, as it will never abandon its nuclear ambitions aimed at America. Enough is enough—it is time to act decisively. The moment is now. Later, propaganda, siding with Iran and Putin against America while pretending patriotism. Why aren’t top Republicans throughout Washington calling out Carlson. They need to stop whispering about him and speak openly and publicly. The same goes for too many in the media, some of which promote him and some of which field his leaks.

On Friday’s Mark Levin Show, based solely on President's Trump’s recent public statements and tone, it sounds like he has already decided to act against the Iranian regime—possibly even issuing the order—and is waiting for the right moment. Reported diplomatic moves, such as the Secretary of State’s trip to Israel and upcoming negotiations, may be head fakes. Trump has repeatedly given Iran ample chances to negotiate a deal but that the regime has foolishly refused, and Trump genuinely prefers not to act militarily.  Later, Heritage Foundation’s Robert Greenway calls in and explains that Iran has failed to adapt to dealing with a different, more resolute President under Trump, who has been consistent and leaves Iran with far less negotiating room. Iran has negotiated itself out of any viable deal, cannot be trusted as a partner due to repeated violations of the Obama-era agreement, and ideological refusal to honor commitments.  Afterward, Rep Chip Roy calls in and praises the Trump's current use of peace through strength — demonstrating military force and pressure — to confront the tyrannical, anti-Israel, anti-American, terror-sponsoring regime of Iran after 47 years. Roy warns against repeating North Korea's nuclearization through hesitation, urges firmness against new nuclear states, and calls for vigilance against the global march of Islam and Muslim Brotherhood influence undermining Judeo-Christian and Western values.

On Thursday’s Mark Levin Show, history is repeating dangerous patterns from the 1930s, when advanced Germany descended into Nazism and mass murder through citizen denial, weak politicians' acquiescence, and failure to take threats seriously. Today, Tucker Carlson is echoing Goebbels-style propaganda, siding with Iran and Putin against America while pretending patriotism. Why aren’t top Republicans throughout Washington calling out Carlson.  They need to stop whispering about him and speak openly and publicly. The same goes for too many in the media, some of which promote him and some of which field his leaks. Also, how does diplomacy work with a hostile regime that prefers war, terrorism, and has killed over a thousand Americans while maiming tens of thousands? Iran cannot be trusted and any progress in talks or deal is meaningless since the regime will not uphold agreements.  Later, Steve Hilton calls in and discusses his run for California Governor. California has failed after 16 years of one-party Democrat rule. The state has the highest poverty rate, highest unemployment, and highest cost of living - it's time for change.  Finally, Mark Penn calls in and praises President Trump's State of the Union speech as exceptionally powerful, with its effective storytelling, patriotic rhetoric, and emotional-policy blend - contrasting it with past speeches like Bill Clinton's. He also explained that the Democrats appearing to win by losing amid widespread voter unease with the economy and both parties. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

On Wednesday’s Mark Levin Show, no more fan dancing around with Iran. They have no intention of honoring agreements and is reconstituting its nuclear program with help from allies like China, Russia, and North Korea.  There is overwhelming U.S. military superiority in the region. This is not about endless wars or interventionism but confronting a clear, existential threat. Leaving this weakened regime in place betrays future generations, as it will never abandon its nuclear ambitions aimed at America. Enough is enough—it is time to act decisively. The moment is now. Also, President Trump’s State of the Union speech was suburb. He hit a lot of core, important topics for Americans. Democrats refused to stand when Trump asked – do you stand with Americans or illegal aliens? Later, Democrats are accusing Trump of trying to rig the election. How? Because he wants voter ID? Because he wants clean voter rolls? Afterward, Biden’s FBI subpoenaed the phone records of Kash Patel and Susie Wiles in 2022 and 2023, when both were private citizens, as part of Special Counsel Jack Smith phony investigation into Trump.  This is outrageous and alarming. Finally, Gordon Chang calls in and discusses China's supply of advanced weaponry to Iran, including hypersonic anti-ship cruise missiles, advanced radars, integrated command systems, and anti-air missiles. He warns that these capabilities, particularly the untested hypersonic missiles, pose a grave threat to U.S. naval forces in the region currently deployed off Iran. Chang argues that the U.S. must strike and remove the Iranian regime quickly—before these missiles are fully deployed—to avoid potentially catastrophic losses. Learn more about your ad choices.

On Tuesday’s Mark Levin Show, lots of Democrats are boycotting the State of the Union address. The truth is they’d be more comfortable sitting in UN seats listening to some Marxist or Islamist dictator spewing hate about our country. This ​is ​a ​party ​that ​accepts ​no ​traditions ​or ​customs. The Democrat Party is radical and intent on destroying the economy, citizenship, and national sovereignty. They want to dismantle the American system through policies like open borders, no deportations, treating illegal aliens as citizens, and eliminating voter ID. Also, Tucker Carlson is an evil traitor. He’s stabbing the president in the back to foreign countries and undermining our country and our military. He’s promoting anti-Israel, anti-Semitic propaganda in Saudi Arabia and Qatar, defending Sharia law and Islam while attacking Christians and Jews, and giving aid to enemies amid potential war with Iran. Later, secularists, Marxists, and Democrats hypocritically enforce strict separation of church and state, which has banned displays of the Ten Commandments and even silent prayer in schools while expunging Christian influences from classrooms. In contrast, over the last 10–15 years, Islamists have gained influence, with schools distributing Qurans, Sharia law materials, and allowing Muslim prayers. The core problem is weakness among American institutions and ruling class figures who are intimidated, frightened, or sympathetic believers. Islamists exploit the federalist system’s local sovereignty by heavily organizing and attending meetings to push their agenda, while Democrats view them as a new voting constituency. Finally, Tommy Robinson calls in with a warning to America – don’t make the same mistake Britain, Germany or France did. Robinson describes his personal experience growing up in a town 30 miles north of London, where the Muslim population has dramatically increased since his birth in 1982 turning White English people into a minority. He warns that mass immigration from Muslim-majority countries has planted similar destructive seeds in America. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

On Monday’s Mark Levin Show, the Woke Reich isolationists in the Trump administration who are leaking confidential if not classified discussions with the President respecting options against Iran are committing crimes. They must be found and prosecuted. DOJ should ask the FBI to launch an investigation into the sources of these leaks. Also, any nuclear or broader deal with Iran would be utterly unrealistic and worthless. Iran will never abandon its nuclear program, ballistic missiles, terrorism, and Islamist ideology to become peaceful. Negotiations are futile because the core problem is the regime itself, not the terms of a deal. Iran plays a long game, may temporarily comply under pressure (as North Korea did), but will resume its nuclear ambitions once a stronger leader like Trump is gone. Later, there’s a coalition of enemies within including Islamists, Marxists, and woke figures, who hate America, support regimes that kill American soldiers, and seek to impose Sharia law and segregated communities while rejecting the Constitution and Declaration of Independence. These forces—along with figures like AOC, Bernie Sanders, Ilhan Omar, and Rashida Tlaib—are the enemy within, giving aid and comfort to America's adversaries, mirroring problems in Europe. Afterward, ID is required and accepted in nearly every aspect of daily life, yet Democrats oppose it specifically for voting. This opposition exists because Democrats want to enable cheating through illegal voting by non-citizens, dead people, and multiple voting, which is easier in Democrat-controlled one-party cities – this is one of the biggest scams.

This week on the Mark Levin Show, 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, 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. Also, 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, stomach cancer, dysentery, 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 or adulterated items. While some synthetic additives may have downsides, they are far safer than historical alternatives like rotten eggs or swill milk. 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. Sen 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. Learn more about your ad choices.

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.

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.

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

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.
