On Thursday’s Mark Levin Show, the Democrat Party crush the American attitude and zap the American Spirit. As pointed out by Robert Spencer, and admitted by the Democrats themselves, their whole push against Donald Trump is to prevent Trump from ever holding public office again. This is a dirty trick from Democrat legal Svengalis to use an old law that was used to keep Confederates from ever holding office after the Civil War to smear and stop their political opponents. This is a war against the psyche of Americans. Then, Sen. Mitch McConnell interferes in Republican primary elections to surround himself with candidates to empower his own position, not the nation’s, not the Senates, and not the Republican Party’s. America goes nowhere with Mitch McConnell. Later, author Julie Kelly calls in to discuss today’s bombshell update in the January 6th court saga. It was revealed by the judge that the whereabouts of then-Vice President-Elect Kamala Harris were misrepresented by the government in their filings. It turns out that Harris was at the DNC offices where a pipe-bomb was reported, and that Vice President Pence was also not in the building at the time of the breach as reported. Will the Judge hold anyone in contempt? Will the trespassing charges stick since that was the reason the building was off-limits? Afterward, Congressman Troy Nehls, a former Sheriff, caught the Capitol Police taking photos of the whiteboard in his office on a Saturday Afternoon. The Capitol Police claimed that they found his door open and entered to investigate. They then claimed that the information on the whiteboard was suspicious, so they took photographs of it. Nehls is pushing back because his legislative priorities noted on the board in his office fall under the speech and debate clause of the Constitution. Nehls views this retaliation for being a vocal critic of House Speaker Nancy Pelosi.

Rough transcript of Hour 1
Hour 1 Segment 1
I want to thank Larry O’Connor. For sitting in the 11th hour, look, I’ll just say this. If a family member or close friend. Is ill or needs my help, then I drop everything, and that’s what I do. And that’s what I needed to do, so that’s what I did. That’s something I look forward to. I love being on the radio. I love being with you, but sometimes you got to do what you got to do. There’s so much to get into here. But first, I want to talk about this because I happen to agree with Robert Spencer normally do completely. As he points out of PJ Media, what’s really happening against Donald Trump? And you don’t need to be Nostradamus to figure this out, because the Democrats have essentially said this some time ago. He says, why did Mitch McConnell break ranks with the Republican National Committee and insist, contrary to a growing mountain of evidence? That the January six incident was a violent insurrection for the purpose of trying to prevent a peaceful transfer of power after a legitimately certified election from one administration to the next quote unquote. A clue came this Tuesday when Larry Sabato, a popular far left historian, tweeted, Of course, it was a violent insurrection. Shame on every Republican, especially members of Congress who have not declared as much. Next, admit Trump plotted a coup to steal a second term, then invoked the 14th Amendment Section three to ban Trump and co-conspirators from future public office, unquote. If it was an insurrection, then Trump, who’s grown increasingly critical and contemptuous of of McConnell, can be barred from running in 2020 for the initiative to do this is gathering storm. He writes The 14th Amendment Section three, says, no person shall be a senator or representative in Congress or elector a president or vice president or hold any office, civil or military under the United States or an under any state who have previously taken an oath as a member of Congress or as an officer of the United States or is a member of any state legislature or as an executive or judicial officer of any state to support the Constitution of the United States, shall have engaged in insurrection or rebellion against the same are given aid or comfort to the enemies thereof. But Congress may, by a vote of two thirds of each house, remove such disability. This was designed to keep unrepentant confederates out of public office after the civil war, although many did hold office. Is more often than not, Congress did not vote the way the prohibition. PJ Media is Rick Moran noted it’s already being used against America first, Representative Madison Cawthorn, a Republican, North Carolina, although he’s fighting back hard, it’s likely to be used against others who are associated with a January 6th non insurrection as well. And I might add, this is a plot that was hatched by Marc Elias, the slip and fall ambulance chasing legal Svengali who’s been behind every major dirty trick in every major legal action, I would argue. That has brought us to this point. Changing election laws and all the rest of it, we talked about this weeks ago where they’re systematically trying to prevent systematically trying to prevent Republican members of the House challenging them. Under the 14th Amendment, their ability to run for re-election. That’s what Spencer is saying here, we touched on it at a surface level, but he’s he’s hit it. And that is that they want to try and pull the same. Chicanery against Trump. But Cawthorn and the rest would just be a dry run, their great white whale, these Captain Ahab’s are hunting is Donald Trump and they hope that in the 14th Amendment, they have found their harpoon. Some Democrats and establishment Republicans see this as the final steak they can drive into the heart of their nemesis, Trump, ending his 2024 ambitions. And I think he’s 100 percent correct, 100 percent correct. That’s what’s going on here. John Anthony Kastor, a graduate of Georgetown University Law School, bills himself as 2024 presidential candidate as well as a RINO suing Trump under Section three of the 14th Amendment to ban him from office for the January six insurrection, quote unquote. Recall that in mid-January, former FBI Director James Comey called on Biden to pardon Trump. Castro saw this as a checkmate move, tweeting, If Trump accepts the pardon, he has to admit guilt for January six and deal with the application of Section three of the 14th Amendment that disqualifies him from office. If Trump rejects the pardon, legitimizes a federal prosecution. Trump is finished. There are just two problems with this scenario, Biden has said that he will not pardon Trump, there isn’t any thing to pardon Trump for in the first place as January six was not an insurrection. Nonetheless, some leftist academics think they see an easy path to a trump free world. Mark Graber, a law professor at the University of Maryland, he said, I think a court could find a person aided and participated in an attempt to overturn the result of that election. This is, in theory, no more difficult than proving persons aided and supported any illegal activity. And I think attempting to overturn it election by violence qualifies as an insurrection. Keith Whitington, a political scientist at Princeton, added, I suspect the number of likely candidates who could reasonably be affected by Section three is fairly small, though. David Trump excuse me, though, Donald Trump is potentially among them. Potentially, ladies and gentlemen, the Democrats and their establishment Republican allies are building a lie upon lie now that they have insisted at every possible opportunity for over a year that the January six Capitol breach was a threat to our democracy, unparalleled since the civil war and worse than 9/11, Pearl Harbor and the resignation of Al Franken. They are beginning to build on the foundation they have laid in order to use the 14th Amendment against Trump, regardless of how the now forgotten fact that he called upon protesters on January six to peacefully and patriotically make your voices heard and also offer the National Guard cuts. Even if January six was an insurrection, it was not. The idea that Trump was behind it is a gigantic piece of the left’s case that remains unproven. Nonetheless, the push to use the 14th Amendment against Trump could well succeed because all the Democrats needed the votes to push it over and they may find enough obliging establishment Republicans to help them do it. Then the establishment media will help those who gave Trump Akutagawa for saving our democracy as heroes. For them, there is no downside, writes Robert Spencer, director of Jihad Watch and so forth. He’s exactly right. That’s exactly what’s going on. It won’t work. But just another effort to contort the Constitution. And try and prevent the Trump nomination. That’s why you shouldn’t listen to the Chris Christie’s and the in the others who were so stupid, they don’t even understand what’s going on. But even if they did, they wouldn’t give a damn. Chris Christie wants to be president. Ladies and gentlemen. He wants to be president, so what better way to knock out one of his competitors? That by going on TV and trashing President Trump, he’s a bizarre man. First he befriends Trump. We’ve been friends for interpretation. We’ve been friends for 20 years. So he treats his friends. I asked a question the other day. Where exactly? Will we go what exactly will happen if the Republicans take the Senate and Mitch McConnell? Is their leader, remains their leader. What we now have an answer. We now have the answer when we come back, I’ll explain. We’ll be right back.
Hour 1 Segment 2
So what will Mitch McConnell do if we deliver the Senate to the Republicans? He will take over the agenda. He’s already attacked, the Tea Party said, for losses that shouldn’t have happened if they had just allowed his rhinos to run. And he points to Sharron Angle, who actually almost beat Harry Reid, Richard Mourdock, Christine O’Donnell. And Todd Akin, he doesn’t point to all the rhinos, have lost Senate seats as candidates and incumbents over the same 10, 12 year period of time, those he doesn’t point to. Mitch McConnell wants pliable, malleable politicians so he can control to do what? David Drucker. The Washington Examiner says, what are voters going to get beginning next year if they elect a new Republican majority in the Senate this November? And so what does Mitch McConnell say? The first thing they’re going to get is the worst. Joe Biden will be over. The progressive movement will be stopped. I don’t think it means no progress is made with the country. It means look for things in the center you can agree on and do those. He provided not a single example. Well, what is it? So some hard pressed to think of hell of what the Democrats could do to dramatically turn the atmosphere and their decision, so the wind will almost certainly be at our back, but the individual states, he says. We’ll make these decisions, of course, he interferes with the individual states and he rails against Tea Partiers who lost, but of course not against rhinos who lose, he can’t win everything. And then 2014, another GOP wave year when a fed up McConnell began intervening in primaries to weed out bad candidates, he says, did Republicans finally recapture the Senate majority they had lost eight years earlier? So you can see as this guy Drecker in his back pocket. Over at The Washington Examiner. Who who lays this out for him? But, of course, it’s preposterous. The minority leader is prepared to do the same thing this year, particularly in Missouri, where disgraced former governor Eric Greitens is a leading contender, the National Republican Senatorial Committee is neutral in primaries, a directive of Florida Senator Rick Scott. But the super PAC aligned with McConnell, the Senate Leadership Fund, is poised to fill the gap and utilize the massive war chest at its disposal against Greitens if polling suggests intervention is necessary. So here you have a senator from Kentucky, McConnell, who was interfering in Republican primaries with Republican voters in other states to enhance himself. Like, if he picks somebody, they’re going to win. I could go back and I well, maybe I’ll do it tomorrow if I remember it’s none of the top of my list. I can go back and I’ll start to pick people. That he backed and who lost? No, I did that, not when he was going after the Tea Party, Mr. Producer. So far, McConnell is keeping his powder dry. Let’s put it this way, he said, If I were inclined to intervene, I certainly wouldn’t announce it. In other words, he’s a sleaze Greitens has pledged to vote against McConnell for Republican leader if he’s elected to the Senate. That’s the bottom line. Meanwhile, just about every targeted state other than Missouri McConnell sees virtually zero reason for concern. Arizona said obviously Governor Deucy would be a star candidate. Well, who is the one that ran in Arizona? What was her name? Who just lost? Rich, who’d been on the show? I forget her name. That’s the point. We’re both blanking. You want to look that up? He was she was picked McSally. McSally was her, Martha McSally was chosen by Deucy at the behest of McConnell. Even though she had lost the general election. And she lost it again. We can look at McConnell’s record in these states to folks, and it is not very good, in fact, it’s quite poor. And maybe Drucker should go through and look at that. On Pennsylvania, where former head hedge fund CEO David McCormick and celebrity physician Mahatma’s are the top GOP contenders, he says we have an embarrassment of riches. McConnell also likes what he sees at the outset in Georgia and Nevada. Now, he didn’t like Herschel Walker initially, but Herschel Walker was going to be the nominee whether he liked it. So now he’s backing Herschel Walker. He wasn’t big on Adam Laxalt initially. Nevada, as you know, I endorsed Adam Laxalt. Adam Laxalt. Now he supports. For every eventual Republican nominee, those McConnell is backing and those he might quietly worry about, he’s one central piece of unsolicited political advice. Focus on the future. Talk about the issues voters care about. Gee, what a whiz. What about his? So 2010, he blames on the Tea Party, the debacle in Georgia. He blames on Trump. He takes responsibility for nothing, nothing. If there’s gains, he’ll take credit, if there’s losses, point to somebody else that’s not a leader. That’s not a leader, it’s a loser. And what’s his agenda? He has no agenda, none. He basically said so. He has no agenda other than bipartisanship and find things he can agree on, whether you’re with a Marxist Democrats. That’s why we get nowhere. When we take the Senate and the House, we get absolutely nowhere with a with a lug, a slug like him. Now we’re going to have to speak out and raise our voices and make demands of our senators. This guy’s got to go. Well, we’re going to go nowhere fast when they when they make progress, when we when we step back 10 steps. I’ll be right back.
Hour 1 Segment 3
You know, folks just want to mention something about this business, you know, the radio business. But some of us are actually good friends in this business. Not all of us. Some of us, I don’t look for enemies. Some reason I get them, but I don’t look for them. Three years ago today, my mother passed away. And I happen to be in Florida, wasn’t planning on being Florida today, but something happened yesterday, which have. Kind of referred to in a very ambiguous way. So, of course, I visited her and my father. They are buried in the same place. And I spoke to them. Which I do often. And I was driving back home to our house. I remember the funeral for both, and it was a very small funeral. For both of them. Very small. And when my father passed away. With the funeral, we didn’t make any announcement or anything. And I got up to speak. Which was not easy, and they’re in the back row. With a band genos. Just showed up. You don’t forget something like that, you don’t forget something like that. In Judaism, because somebody like that, a mensch. You know, you get busy, you’re busy with family, you get busy with your own aches and pains, you get busy and so forth, but. He’s a good man. In addition, being good at everything else he does, he’s a good human being. So I just want to mention that in passing. Because that was something that came to mind today as a result of where I was. All right, let’s move on here. You know, this site, The Federalist. To me, it’s become like the new National Review site. Now, what do I mean by that? And I mean by that is very smart writers. Nobody is obsessed with anything. Nobody has a chip on their shoulder. But they’re concerned about the mission. They understand what’s happening to the country. They have very smart people who are writing their we have that going on at the Blaze, we have it going on at the Daily Wire, The Daily Caller and so forth. But I wanted to mention the Federalist to. It is a it is an excellent site, if you have these sites and others, you can’t go wrong. Of course, BREITENBACH one of the gems. But there’s 10 or 15 sites. And they’re mostly run by young people and mostly young people who write for them, not not exclusively. And they’re just really good, really smart. They really have their act together. I am proud to be associated. Who plays media and, of course, Lhevinne TV and. And the young people, mostly young people who right there, but I’m proud of all you folks who are doing this. All of you. And if I missed your site, I apologize. I’ve probably looked at it and probably often do. But we have a group of young people. Younger than me, anyway. Who really are cutting edge. And they’re not the future that the present. And the future. And they are doing a fantastic job, and I am so proud of them, I just want you all to know, those of you who are involved working in the. In the fields of this battle. What I think of you. Because I don’t think I take enough time to say so. When I bring individuals in here. When I can’t be here. These are individuals who are younger than I am. These are individuals who tend to be local hosts on our affiliates who could easily do national shows. I want to help people. I have throughout my career, because one day I’m not going to be here by hook or by crook. I’m not jealous of them. I celebrate them. So do I get annoyed with some other hosts? Of course I do. You know that you’ve heard me, but that’s not what I’m talking about. So I wanted to mention that to Liz Cheney, called electoral objections unconstitutional and then sided with Democrats who done it for years. And this is by Treston justice that the Federalist I don’t know, Treston justice. But Treston, justice is a hell of a thinker and writer. Yes, he is their final phone conversation before rivalry’s emerged, Wyoming Representative Liz Cheney called political ally turned primary challenger Harriet Harman to weigh the consequences of demanding that President Trump concede the election. And Cheney’s recounting of the call in The New York Times on Wednesday. Of course, she’s now. A favorite of The New York Times, they will use her jaw up and spit her out. The same newspaper who brutalized her family and her father. She’s so obsessed right now, it’s OK by her. And she’s working with a newspaper that covered up the Holocaust. The incumbent congresswoman who had just captured her third term at the time of the call told Hagaman it was unconstitutional to cast objections over the electoral votes of other states. Now, I would ask Liz Cheney, based on what? You may not think they should. Maybe that’s the most logical conclusion, but what’s a based on what part of the Constitution? No part of the Constitution? None. The Constitution is silent. On this matter, she can’t point to anything. And she said that she warned of setting a precedent that would allow Democrats in Congress to decide the legality of Wyoming’s electoral votes. The Times reported, except the president had already been set by Cheney’s own allies on the January six committee. This is my point, her alliances are really strange. Repugnant, in fact, in 2017, Democrats objected to more states attempting to certify their electoral votes than Republicans did last year, you wouldn’t know this, but for the fact the Federalist published this. No other media organisation, NBC, ABC, CBS, The New York Times, it’s interviewing Liz Cheney, didn’t even bother to look because they didn’t want to see. Democrat Representatives Jim McGovern of Massachusetts, Parmelia, Joshua Powell of Washington, Raul Grijalva of Arizona, Sheila Jackson Lee of Texas, Barbara Lee and Maxine Waters of California, and Jamie Raskin, a Maryland I’ve told you about him, who was an impeachment manager and now serves along Sly Cheney on the House probe to criminalize such conduct. Each objected to Trump’s 2016 victory, citing Russian interference and alleged voter suppression. Democrats then embarked on a four year campaign I’d call the jihad to achieve that on their policy agenda of impeachment with made up narratives of Trump, Russia collusion, allegedly illegal Ukrainian interference and incitement of insurrection, quote unquote, as the finale with Cheney’s support. I will fight every day until he is impeached, Waters cried out in Washington three months after Trump’s inauguration, which he boycotted in protest. Democrats also objected to electoral certification in 2005 and 2001 following George W. Bush’s two victories, Cheney told The Times she was bewildered to find that Hagman didn’t share the view that Republicans were unable to raise the same concerns over election integrity that Democrats did in the last three out of five contests. I was surprised that she seemed not to be exactly where I was on the issue, Cheney told the paper. She mingled with reporters instead of crazy constituents. I thought she would have been. Hagman told the paper she made clear to Cheney that Republicans were able to invoke the same procedural rules as Democrats over the prior two decades. I just said I think there were some legitimate questions and we have every right to ask them, she told The Times. This is America. We get to ask questions. The two are now competing for the state’s sole seat in the lower chamber, while Cheney, the incumbent at large lawmaker, escalates her attacks on Trump and his supporters in her state, which. Won by a wider margin than anywhere else in the country a year and a half ago, she’s in touch with her constituents in McLean, Virginia. Hagaman, a land use attorney and former longtime political confidant of Cheney’s, launched her own campaign for the House with Trump’s endorsement endorsement late last summer. When she ran for Congress the first time, she asked me to introduce her at the Republican state convention, Hagman told supporters at a campaign kickoff in Cheyenne. Had I known what she would do and five years later inside, would Nancy Pelosi and the radical left, I would have never answered her first phone call. Hagman told the Federalist immediately after the speech that it was Cheney’s crusade to punish Republican voters for raising questions over the election’s outcome, which featured historic turnout in the form of mail in ballots that ultimately severed their relationship now. Once again, for the four billionth time. These people who pose as constitutionalists are frauds and phonies. They are fakes. Absolute fix. Not one of them addresses Article two. Section one. Clause two, paragraph two. Now one of them, including Liz Cheney. Not one of them. When state after state after state saw the same Marc Elias, who’s trying to have individual Republican candidates nullified under the 14th Amendment. He and his slip and fall surrogates, colleagues. Went from state to state to state to persuade Democrat elected judges, Democrat elected secretaries of state, Democrat elected governors to change the laws in each of these states. To benefit the Democrats and the Biden campaign, which they most certainly did. In violation of the federal constitution, where only the state legislatures have the power to do so. These Democrats, the media, the legal analysts, the never Trump National Review, The Wall Street Journal, they keep talking about the the election statute that was passed in 1887. But they won’t talk, actually, about the Constitution. They won’t do it. So long before there was a January six, long before there was a January six, and by the way, under that statute, the governor in the end certifies the electors. So pretty neat trick. In the end. So much of what was done in the states was unconstitutional, and as I’ve told you. In 2000. The same bushes, the same rhinos, the same number troopers who who prey to the good lord that the Rehnquist Supreme Court stepped in to stop the Florida Supreme Court. From appointing Al Gore as president of the United States with its constant change of the electoral system. The Roberts court refused to do it. Because Roberts has neither the intelligence. Fortitude or courage to stand up to the mob? The way I requested. The 2000 decision, the court said enough had put down the Florida Supreme Court, but it didn’t it didn’t even take up what the Pennsylvania Supreme Court had done or any of the other court. Despite the fact. They Clarence Thomas and clearly Sam Alito wanted to do it, we believe Gorsuch did, to. So I just want to point this out. I’ll be right back.
Hour 1 Segment 4
We need to discuss inflation. Because the meeting, the Democrat Party are blaming the virus. Did you know, Mr. Producer in America that the virus voted for massive spending, did you know this? The virus voted. That’s right, it voted for massive deficit spending like this nation has never experienced. The vast majority of which didn’t even go to it, the virus, the vast majority of which went to projects, new entitlements, you’re not even aware of it yet? None of us are because we don’t have a participatory government anymore. They put together these big bills. They report on it like it’s a tennis match. Wow, look at this, love zero. You know what the hell I’m talking about? You know, Love Zero. But anyway, that would be zero, right? Love zero. Love 20, whatever. So, anyway, here’s the thing. All it did is it took an economy that was recovering. And spiked it. Jacked it up. Printed tons and tons of money like we’ve never seen before. At the same time, Biden comes in. And shuts down our economic system, shuts down oil drilling and energy production. Issues, regulations on businesses that have nothing to do with business, everything to do with race, genitalia, God knows what else unleashes the bureaucracy that hates the private sector. And then they wonder why we have inflation. While we have inflation, I want to talk about it, because this damn thing is an economic killer. I’ll be right back.
