On Monday’s Mark Levin Show, Iran’s regime has a history of deceit and terrorism, including killing Americans and targeting leaders like President Trump. A single nuclear warhead could devastate a city, and it’s naive to think Iran wouldn’t attack the U.S. despite geographic distance. The goal isn’t to start a war with Iran but to prevent nuclear annihilation. Accepting Iran’s pursuit of nukes contradicts American values, as they aim to destroy the West. Trump insists Iran must be prevented from acquiring nuclear weapons, recognizing their terrorist nature and potential to deploy them. Also, a retired police lieutenant, Douglas Deaton, has revealed disturbing details about a planned Sharia-compliant “Islamic mega-city” near Dallas, Texas, called EPIC City, sparking investigations by Texas officials. Gov Greg Abbott has responded by directing state agencies and the Texas Rangers to investigate allegations of illegal activities, emphasizing that Sharia law is not permitted in Texas. Such a city must never exist in the U.S., American law must be followed without exception, not Sharia law. Zuhdi Jasser, Founder of the American Islamic Forum for Democracy (AIFD), calls in and explains that this mega-city aims to isolate its community to shield youth from freedom and liberty, despite claims of religious freedom. The leader of this mega-city has denied the Holocaust and praised Hamas’s actions. Later, the Supreme Court has allowed deportations of Venezuelan gang members to resume, enabling Trump to restart deporting Venezuelan illegal immigrants. The case was taken away from Judge Boasberg, with SCOTUS overruling the lower court, aligning with Levin that such judges have exceeded their authority.

Segment 1
Hello, America. Mark Levin here. Our number 877-381-3811. 8770381-3811. You know, I’ve got a lot of very important information here. I hope you had a great weekend. I’m thrilled to be here. I’m thrilled you’re there. And president had a wonderful news conference when Benjamin Netanyahu there was news broke. And there we have more discussion about tariffs. I hope you were able to watch my shows on Saturday and Sunday where I laid it out in both monologues, as I have here. Well, in the end, this is going to be a good thing, not tariffs per say, but his whole package. And now we see over 50 countries have contacted the United States to try and work out some kind of deal. And, you know, here’s the thing. At the time, President Trump has done when we have a situation where most of the industrialized world is not terrifying each other. That’s pretty damn good thing, too. But I’ve gotten tremendous feedback from my opening statements on Saturday and Sunday on Fox as well as here people wanting copies. So we post them on on social media. And if you want to check them out, they are there. But before I get into these some of these heavy issues and I do want to get into them. There’s something here I want to take a look at whether they would have had put it down plan. Yeah, that’s what I was afraid of. It’s not there. All right? It is mislabeled, I’m afraid. It is the Gateway Pundit on what’s going on in the Islamic city near Dallas. Mr.. And let me see. Maybe it’s this one. Now we’ll see if we can find it. But I want to get into this a little bit, and we could talk about it later as well. That is during the course of. The week because outside of Plano, Texas, and maybe it’s from the edge of Plano attacks Texas, some onslaught of Islamist support, hundreds and hundreds of acres of land, and they intend to make an Islamic city. Let me know if you ever find a rich. Okay, here we go. There we go. Thank you, buddy. So I want to read this to you. No, it’s the same one Islamist found guilty. Targeting U.S. churches is what you keep sending me here. I don’t. I don’t know why we’re not getting that. You know what? I’m going to move on. Once we figure it out, we’ll figure it out. I’m definitely going to hit this subject, but we’re getting the wrong. You got to look at the link, not just the title. All right. Let’s start here. Netanyahu in the Oval Office today with President Trump. This is the breaking news, I think certainly in some respects that’s go cut one go. And of course, we also discussed Iran. Look, we’re both united in the goal that Iran does not ever get nuclear weapons. If it can be done diplomatically in a full way the way it was done in Libya. I think that would be a good thing. But whatever happens, we have to make sure that Iran does not have nuclear weapons. That’s the end of my speech. Is it the right one? So why is the way we’re having direct talks with Iran? Wait, wait, wait. We’re having direct talks with Iran and they’ve started it’ll go on Saturday. We have a very big meeting and we’ll see what can happen. And I think everybody agrees that doing a deal would be preferable to doing the obvious. And the obvious is not something that I want to be involved with or frankly, that Israel wants to be involved with if they can avoid it. So we’re going to see if we can avoid it. But it’s getting to be very dangerous territory and hopefully those talks will be successful. And I think it would be in Iran’s best interest if they are successful. And we hope we hope that’s going to happen. Here’s what I don’t understand. Why does anybody think it’s going to happen? Why does anybody think that they’re not going to lie and cheat? This is what they’ve done for over a decade, and they’ve even done it to the United Nations, their buddies. I don’t understand why why we think they’re going to change their stripes or their spots, whichever. These are Islamo Nazi terrorists. They have invested an enormous amount of effort into building nuclear weapons. And one warhead can blow one city off the face of the earth in this country. And that’s the truth. And they’re very good to rope a dope. Now I’ve heard it said. That being said, Mr. Lavin is trying to draw America into a war. Have you heard that, Mr. Producer? I’m being singled out. Mark Levin wants to draw America into a war. No, I want to save America from nuclear annihilation. I don’t believe in drawing people into wars and so forth. I believe in prudence looking at this. You’ve got freaks and fools and reprobates out there who are even today posting about we can’t afford to go to war with Iran. We’ll lose God knows how many, especially because of the terror. These are propagandists. These are morons. They’re ideologues. I’m not any of these things. I’m a realist. And it’s funny, the people who push this crap claim that they believe in a realist foreign policy. What’s realist about Iran getting nuclear weapons and then pretending they can’t blackmail us to threaten us and seek their 72 virgins by blowing, say, L.A. or New York or Chicago or Philadelphia. Detroit off the face of the earth? I don’t get it. You know, in the last hundred years, 100 million people have been sacrificed to various ideologies. Marxism. Hitler. ISM. Islamism. 100 million people. We so conceded that we think that we’re in the United States. There’s two oceans and they dare not attack us because they may get blown off the face of the earth. Has it ever occurred to anybody that that maybe that’s the way they want to go out? I mean, seriously, folks, human Islamo Nazi regime. That has been backing terrorism for over half a century, that has been killing Americans, maiming Americans for over half a century. That has backed terrorist organizations, that has been killing and maiming Americans, that has sought to assassinate our president, former secretary of state, former national security adviser and others. And you and I are supposed to sit here dumbfounded. Like it’s not possible that they might launch a nuclear missile to hit us. I’m not willing to take that chance. And that’s why I speak out. It’s not a matter of dragging American to war. If this were to happen, the truth is the brunt of the battle would be on Israel. It would be on Israel, not on the United States. They’re right there in the neighborhood. They would probably have to carry out much the attack. There are people. All right. Harm’s way. Right now we’re not. The Iranians have no way of reaching us right now. So this talk about trying to drag America into a war is disgusting. And I’m sick and tired of the antisemites hiding behind these different bromides and shibboleths and. And they pretend they’re pro-American. How can you be pro-American if you think it’s okay for the Islamo Nazi regime in Tehran to have a nuclear weapon? How can you be pro-American? They want to destroy the West, and they keep talking about us. Their little hit Hitler Youth in the streets. They’re burning more American flags than they are Israeli flags. I’m sick and tired of this double life some of these commentators live. Well, they pretend they’re pro-American America first when they seem to be Iran first, Qatar first, Russia first, Communist China first. Am I missing something, Mr. Producer? No, I don’t think so. Russia is a fascistic regime with imperial desires. Communist China is our greatest threat. It is a Maoist regime with a massive military now. You don’t build a massive military just because you want to sit around and pick your nose now. You don’t build a massive military because you won’t invade an island nation right off the coast. No. You don’t need hypersonic missiles. Killer satellites. 350 Navy ship ships. Nuclear subs, aircraft carriers and on and on and on to be Taiwan. You just don’t. And nobody’s bothering Iran. The only reason Iran gets hit is as a counterattack. Nobody’s seeking any territorial gain over Iran. Nobody is doing anything to Iran. Iran is doing everything day by day out. Look what it’s done to the people of Yemen. Look what it’s done to the people of Lebanon. Look what it’s done to the people in Gaza. Look what it’s done to the people in Israel. Look what it’s doing to the people in Iraq. And you and I are supposed to sit here with our thumb up our nose and pretend if we notice this and if this regime is. Desperately trying to get nuclear weapons keeps threatening the United States. Then we’re supposed to sit here and say, no, no, that’s not true. And if somebody notices it and has a big platform and says they cannot get this weapon that Levin is trying to drag us into a war, not the Islamo Nazis, not the terrorists, not the enemy, me, I’m trying to drag us into a war. Let me tell you something. It’s not a matter of me dragging anybody into anything. We have enemies. They are evil. That’s the way it is. That’s the way it’s always going to be. People who run around with the dumbest of labels and the fortune cookie mindset. About never wars and all. That’s all well and good. If you’re trying to get clicks and subscriptions and all the rest of it, that’s fantastic. But when you’re looking down the barrel of the enemy’s gun, it is what it is. Donald Trump understands this. He says Iran must not get a nuclear weapon. Why does he say that? He doesn’t say about anybody else. Why does he say that about Iran? Because he knows that they’re terrorists and he knows that they’re capable of using these weapons. And he certainly doesn’t want it to happen on his watch. What does he know? That these reprobates don’t know. What do I know that they don’t know? The answer is they’re ideologues. They’ve been brainwashed. They’ve been brainwashed by the Soros’s and the Kochs. They’ve been brainwashed by the isolationists. They’ve been brainwashed. They have persuaded themselves into the stupidity of their position. And many of them, simply put, are Jew haters. Not everybody who opposes but some of them. My biggest mouths definitely are, definitely are. But this isn’t even about Jews. It’s bigger than Israel. A hype. A sonic intercontinental ballistic missile with a nuclear warhead is not intended for the neighborhood. And it just so happens is President Trump knows. We don’t have an iron shield. It was Reagan’s idea. The Israelis ran with it. We did not. Thank you, Democrats, as usual. We have no protection against an intercontinental ballistic missile with a nuclear warhead. The Israelis do, because they took the idea and they ran with it. And by the way, they’ve given us their technology, their advanced technology. If we are to build an Iron Dome, we can thank the is. Why don’t we get from Israel? Well, that’s one of the things we’re going to get from Israel. But again, that aside. President Trump has made clear. He’s. No. Neo con. He’s no warmonger. He’s made abundantly clear they cannot have a nuclear weapon. I don’t care what the Lilliputians think. Scratching at his door, knocking at his door, trying to get little meetings with him, putting stuff on social media to draw attention to themselves and to their issue. We know who these pukes are. We know they are. They do not have America’s interest? Not at all. First, second or anywhere on the list. I’ll be right back.

Segment 2
Yeah. Something to step back a little bit. You’re incredibly smart in this audience. You wouldn’t be here. You’d be somewhere else. Let’s forget the name Iran, the United States, whatever. Let’s pretend we’re in grade school again. But somebody had the ability. The ability. Let’s do it this way. If somebody the ability to blow up your house and kept saying they would. And they’re making a bomb to do it. If they’re not that far away from doing it, that is building it. If you have somebody who says you better stop them before they actually do what they say they’re going to do. And, you know, if somebody says, oh, they’ll never do it, don’t worry about it. Who are you going to listen to, Mr. Producer? Exactly. I mean, how stupid are these people? How moronic are these people? And they’re very isolated, too. They don’t engage. They don’t want to debate. It’s a whole nother thing. We’ll be right back.

Segment 3
You know, this isn’t getting the kind of national attention it deserves. So. Well, now we had a caller who first brought my attention to this week or two ago. Right. Which I think and very good articles at Gateway Pundit on this the other day. So I want to I want to dig into this. One second. Hold on, hold on. You wouldn’t believe who texts me in the middle of this show. Okay, here we go. Retired police lieutenant drops major bombshell about planned Islamic city near Dallas, Texas. Now, the reason you’re not allowed to discuss this, ladies and gentlemen, is because. It involves a Muslim mega center. She. I’m saying so. Oh. Oh, this is a hot one. It’s the third rail. Don’t touch it. I’m going to touch it. And let me let me just say this. This is something that needs to go viral. Absolutely needs to go viral. This is by Michael Chance. I’m taking a chance on a chance. And I’m just kidding. It’s the Gateway Pundit recently reporting an Islamic megacity that is Sharia law compliant. Let’s stop right there. A city in America, Sharia law compliant. This is like all these areas in and around Paris, France. They’re creating their own cities. No assimilation. Period. No assimilation at all. Now we have immigration. The whole point of immigration is assimilation and to benefit the people who already live here. There must never be. Anything like an Islamic mega city that is Sharia law compliant. You are compliant with American law. That’s it. Case closed. It’s being promoted near Dallas, Texas. Near Plano, to be specific. Okay. Just bear with me. Bear with me. I’m going through this. All right, That’s good. There are a lot of red flags around the project, so much so that Texas Governor Greg Abbott has been speaking out about it. Okay. Now there’s a video of a retired police lieutenant who is a recognized expert in SWAT activity. He’s speaking about some of his findings on it, too. It’s very serious via twitchy and explosive public testimony. Dayton. This is the police, retired police Lieutenant Warren, Texas officials, that this wasn’t some future plan. It’s already happening. It’s already happening. And worse, it’s being replicated on a massive scale just outside of Dallas. Here’s what he exposed already. America, 74 homes sold only to Muslims affiliated with Epic. A massive mega mosque anchoring the enclave. Sharia adherent. Islamic schools enforcing religious doctrine. UHF corporation offering only Sharia compliant financial services. If I’m this. A fortress like home built beside the Plano Police Academy, overlooking SWAT vehicles, bomb trucks, tactical zones. They got the maps wrong. This. The owner, a senior epic leader and co-founder of the controversial Jack Keane Institute, a group that openly advocates Sharia in the West. The retired lieutenant Douglas Dayton, said, I urge everyone to visit their website and see for yourself what they say about instituting Sharia. This is not about radicals hiding in plain sight. They’re not hiding. They’ve been open about their beliefs and their intent. Plano was phase one. Epic City is phase two. Now, Mr. Producer, let’s go ahead and put this Gateway Pundit link on all the social sites and encourage people with their headline that says, just check this out, exclamation mark. It’s called Epic City. The entire city has been built with no building permits. And Abbott says they talk about doing all this building, but they don’t have any building permits to actually do any building. Now Texas is investigating a city for many allegations. The Texas Rangers have opened up a criminal investigation. Sharia law is not allowed in Texas, the governor said. People come to. The United States need to assimilate. We do not need or want miniature countries within the country. Now this can’t stand because if this starts, then it’s going to have a precedential value and you’re going to see as it triggers other such efforts. His it triggers other such efforts. So they’re planning an Islamic mega city. Really it’s it’s in part a planer. They bought over 400, almost 500 acres with this massive Islamic center, East Plano, East Plano. You know, if the governor there was Josh SHAPIRO, who’s the governor of Pennsylvania, and I understand from the media that he’s Jewish. He’d be giving them $5 million. He just gave $5 million to a Islamic community center that is fighting no less than an imam who has spoken there spewing his Jew hatred. But hey, that’s a one off, I’m sure. And Josh Shapiro’s Jewish show, he can do whatever he wants with respect to giving $5 million to a. To an Islamic center that invites guests like that. And the people of Pennsylvania. You should wish you had a governor like Abbott. So they’re digging into this and we’re going to take a look at this. We’re going to keep an eye on this very closely, because I’m telling you now, this is the beginning of the end. If that if they get away with this, these that is these Islamists, these radicals, not Muslims, Islamic radicals, they get away with this. They’re going to get away with a lot more of it. I’m sure the people of Plano are thrilled. And, you know, your mainstream Muslims detest this, too. We’ve had Zuhdi Jasser, you know what Mr. Receiving had Zuhdi Jasser on tonight. I want to ask him about this. We’ll try and get them. We can get them and we’ll will get them this week. Because we need to dig into this. I need to dig into this myself. And we’re going to make it. One of the issues that I focus on a lot because the consequences of something like this are just a devastating. Absolutely devastating. And again, I’m sure if they were to build this outside of Philadelphia or Pittsburgh, maybe pick Redding. Who knows where else? Any of the little towns? Scranton, I guess. Sure they’d be welcome, Right? See, so the way the media will twist this is this is discrimination against Muslims. There’s nothing to do with discrimination against Muslims. A Sharia law. Compliant, massive. Islamic center that requires people who apply to go through the Islamic financial process. They will only accept. Not just Muslims, but certain types of Muslims. And are not complying at all with the building codes because they don’t believe they have to. I mean, after all. It’s a Sharia compliant community that they’re building. That’s intolerable. Absolutely intolerable. You know, we pride ourselves in this country, at least in the last half century or more, in integration, integrating communities, integrating people with diverse backgrounds. We pride ourselves on this. But there are places in the world and there are ideologies in the world. That reject that. They insist on segregation. So to come into the United States. And to try and create. In one of the great cities and one of the great states in America. An Islamic city. A mega city, they call it, with Islamic compliant, Sharia compliant law. And all the rules and all the rest of it that they go through have to be Sharia adherent as well. Should we adhere in Islamic schools and enforce. You know, the worst kind of doctrines that the Israelis are having to deal with and parts of the world that they’ve already sold 74 homes that have not gone through the building code. That they use Sharia compliant financial services. A fortress like home built beside the Plano Police Academy, overlooking the SWAT vehicles, bomb trucks, tactical zone. It’s all intentional. And the owner, the co-founder of controversial Jackson Institute. It’s a group that openly advocates Sharia imposed on the West. Think about that. I’ll be right back.

Segment 4
We’re going to Zuhdi Jasser on the program. I love this guy. He’s a Muslim, is an American. He was a commander in the United States Navy. He and his family fled Syria. Easily. He’s been leading a Muslim reform effort. You know, here’s the thing. Uighur Muslims in this country who have assimilated into the Western culture like Jews or Christians or atheist, doesn’t matter. My point is and still practice their faith, and that’s the way it’s supposed to be. Then you have people in other parts of the world who don’t believe in that. You believe that it’s my way or the highway and not just in their own lives and everybody else’s life. And that’s the problem. The throwbacks to the seventh century. And those are the terrorists. Those are the Islamists. Those are the jihadis. Those are very violent, hateful people. And so too many people like that have been able to come into our country with open borders or through deception and populate different areas of the country. And this is becoming a big problem and not just a big problem for non-Muslims, for actual America loving Muslims. We don’t do anybody any favors here by sitting back and pretending otherwise or ignoring what’s taking place. And so I’m jumping into this with both feet. I found out about it from a caller that we see it on Gateway Pundit. Now we’ve done a little bit more research. You know, and. Time will tell, but we’ll have our friend Zuhdi on in about 40 minutes to go over this, because we cannot have these Sharia cities around the country. I mean, they understand the people doing this. This is how you destroy the West. The West in many ways is weak. I’m not talking about on the battlefield. I mean, internally weak. You see the judges. They are horrendous. You have a guy. I hope you again. I hope you saw the shows on the weekend. You know, we had an excellent guest who’s been litigating on the civil side again, just like Satterlee and people like that. And this guy was leading an effort and a First Amendment effort. And Mark Goldfeder exposed the terrorist support network behind some of these individuals and these campus riots. He and Dave Schoen, they’re just terrific and a number of others. But were weak. Were weak because of the Democrats, because of the left. I mean, we can’t even. We can’t even deport Venezuelan international terrorist gang members who are sent to this country. To destroy. Because some left wing Obama judge says so in violation of our own Constitution, they pretend uphold the constant. I mean, they see the weakness. They see the colleges and universities. They see the Democrat Party. They see our media pushing Hamas propaganda points. Hamas lies about about casualties in the media. Stop pushing those lies about casualties. By the way, they’re still doing it. And so. And so they see that we’re ripe. We’re ripe for invasion. And this is an invasion. That’s what it is. Oh, this is interesting to. Very interesting. Reuters US families accuse Palestinian-American billionaire of facilitating Hamas attacks. I’m telling you, folks, American families are victims of October seven attacks. Filed a lawsuit today against a prominent Palestinian-American businessman, Bashar Masri, Masri charging he provided assistance in constructing infrastructure that allowed Hamas militants to carry out their cross-border rampage. The lawsuit? It was filed in the U.S. district for Washington, D.C. is thought to be the first case of a US citizen being accused of providing major support for the attacks that triggered a wider Middle East conflict and upended the region. Some of these guys with their podcast, their subscriptions are definitely going to interview him, pat him on the back and kiss his ass, don’t you think, Mr. Producer? Masri’s office called the lawsuit baseless, according to a statement announcing the lawsuit. Properties Masri owned, developed and controlled, including two luxury hotels, a leading industrial zone in Gaza, the Gaza industrial estate. There’s cutting to the lawsuit accusation. Concealed tunnels underneath them had tunnel entrances accessible from within the properties which Hamas used in terrorist operations before and after October seven. First of all, is here. I don’t care who you are, Palestinian-American, if you’re a wealthy American businessman. And you’re building in Gaza. I mean, you got to be close to Hamas, don’t you? Must they run the place? If they didn’t like it, I don’t think it’d be building there. Even worse, if they weren’t supporting you, I don’t think you’d be building their. Let’s see if Mark Levin can build in Gaza. What do you think of that, Rich? Defendant’s facility. Facility. I’m going to continue this. We’re running out of time in this segment, but I want to pick up where I’m leaving off here, because this is important to these are all important stories about Americans and America. And what’s happening to us. And what’s happening to us. Look at Dallas, for God sakes. Plano, Texas. They’re going to have a Sharia compliant. City. Not only aren’t they interested in assimilation, they’re interested in a. That is. anti-American city. Stay with me. Stay with me. Stay with me.
