Show Notes
On Monday’s Mark Levin Show, the purposeful, relentless, coordinated effort to de-humanize President Trump had a predictable outcome, as we’ve feared. Will media executives take steps to deal with their on-air hosts and guests who use their platforms to invoke the worst kind of images and fears to incite hate? And what of the hideous political strategy and propaganda against Trump and his supporters? President Biden’s speech from the Oval Office about unity was pathetic. Political through and through. He didn’t take any responsibility for his central role in hatemongering and fear-mongering, the core of his campaign, rhetoric, and entire career. Where were all the good guys during the Trump rally? How does a 20-year-old evade the Secret Service, and local law enforcement, get to the rooftop and almost assassinate a former and hopefully future president? One of the people responsible starts at the top – the head of the Secret Service. Nobody ever gets fired in the bureaucracy. Afterward, MRC’s Brent Bozell calls in to explain the out-of-control media’s role in the attempted assassination of Trump. Also, the media is already trashing Trump’s VP pick, JD Vance. Does the media forget when Kamala Harris all but called Biden a racist at the 1st Democrat debate in 2020 and later was the first Democrat to drop out? Nonetheless, Biden chose her as his vice president. All this talk that J.D. Vance was critical of Trump in the past (although he has been a big Trump supporter since and was endorsed by Trump for the Senate) doesn't matter. Later, Mark is joined by Landmark Legal Foundation’s VP of Legal Affairs Mike O’Neill to discuss Judge Cannon’s decision concluding that Jack Smith’s appointment violates the Appointments Clause of the Constitution and Smith’s use of a permanent indefinite appropriation violates the Appropriations Clause.
