On Wednesday’s Mark Levin show, There was never an organized concentrated effort focused on the hate from Ilhan Omar, Rashida Tlaib, and Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez. Their history of antisemitic commentary precedes them and they’ve never been held to task by Pelosi or the media for it. Yet, Rep Marjorie Taylor Greene is threatened by all for pushing back when provoked. Also, new reports from CNN indicate that the medical examiner’s office found that the reports that Officer Brian Sicknick was struck in the head with a fire extinguisher at the Capitol Building riot are unproven. Then, a far-left female-led domestic terrorism group bombed the US Capitol in 1983 and past presidents pardoned them. No one has ever discussed impeaching those presidents. Afterward, Anthony Fauci’s doublespeak on the virus is catching up with him and his defense is incoherent. Later, Florida Governor Ron DeSantis joined the show to outline how Florida has taken a lead to hold Big Tech companies accountable when they violate the rights of Floridians by interfering in the state’s electoral process via censorship and de-platforming due to political bias. DeSantis also highlighted his record of handling COVID-19 vaccinations debunking the misinformation shared by the White House Press Secretary.

Rough transcript of Hour 1
Hour 1 Segment 1
When I said last week, with all the focus on this congresswoman who I don’t know, her name is Greene, whether she had the Kuhnen association or not, I have no idea. But Washington wants her out, the media want her out. The Democrats want her out. The Republican establishment wants her out. I have never seen this kind of an organized, concentrated force. Throughout the Washington, D.C. complex of forces. Focused on Ilhan Omar, I said it last week, Ilhan Omar tallied Rashida Tlaib. AOC. These are individuals who have said horrific things not before they were elected. Although they did that, too, but when they were elected. That is while they were public officials. While they were public officials. Now, the Democrat Party circled the wagons around Omar, who’s an anti-Semite, have long standing. They circle the wagons around Tlaib an anti-semite. I’ve long standing. How about their comments causing deep wounds to many? When Nancy Pelosi called our federal law enforcement storm troopers. That was pretty hurtful, don’t you think? Ladies and gentlemen. When James Clyburn did the same, I think that was problematic, so I’m not a special pleader from his green I don’t know anything about, or quite frankly, there’s other things to do. But I don’t remember all the huddling with the speaker of the House, Majority Leader Steny Hoyer of the Democrats sitting down with Omar to decide her fate. I don’t remember the Democrat caucus coming together to decide her fate. I remember them circling the wagons, protecting this anti-Semitic reprobate. Changing the language in a resolution to water it down, to scatter, shoot, and never mentioned her name, not once. And therein is the difference between the Democrat Party and the Republican Party. I don’t remember Mitch McConnell taking off on Omar, do you? I remember Donald Trump doing it when he did it, he was attacked for attacking a woman of color. You remember that? So I don’t sit here and listen to the moral preening of Washington, D.C.. Which is a joke, they have no morality. Now, Brian, sic, Nic, has been. This poor gentleman who passed away, Capitol Hill police officer sitting in St.. Are lying in state, in the Capitol building. At the direction of Chuck Schumer and Nancy Pelosi. So one month they’re calling federal law enforcement stormtroopers. Storm troopers. And now. Mr. Mitnik, poor Mr. Sytek is. Lying in state. Now, there’s something very interesting that was, believe it or not, believe it or not, at CNN by Evan Perez, David Shortell and Whitney Wilde, I have not seen this picked up by any other. So-called news organizations. Maybe they are, but I haven’t seen them. Now, I want you to listen to this. This came out. Last night or was updated last night after I was on the air 956 p.m. Eastern Time. By the way, I’ll be on Hannity tonight on Fox at nine thirty p.m. Eastern Time. Hope you’ll join us there. I’ll see you then. Investigators CNN here are struggling to build a federal murder case. Regarding fallen U.S. Capitol Police Officer Brian Cygnet, whose. Lying in state vexed by a lack of evidence that could prove someone caused his death. As he defended the capital during last month’s insurrection. What I thought he was hit over the head with a fire extinguisher, Mr. Producers, and that will be Kurt. I’ve heard it in the media over and over again. Authorities have reviewed video and photographs that show Psionic engaging with rioters amid the siege, but have yet to identify a moment in which he suffered his fatal injuries. Law enforcement officials familiar with the matter said. Soon after, Nick died on January seven. Prosecutors in Washington opened a federal murder investigation, dedicating a team inside the U.S. attorney’s office to build out a case authorities have said. And they had people, including from the medical examiner’s office. The findings from an autopsy. That were conducted have not been made public. In a statement the day after the incident, they call us an insurrection, OK, let’s just stop. It was not an insurrection. We know what an insurrection is. There was an insurrection in Burma. With a full force of the military in Burma overthrew the government there, OK, this was not an insurrection, but you’re going to hear that word repeated in here. You’re going to hear it ingrained in all news reports from today and yesterday going forward. Because they want you to believe that Donald Trump and his supporters were involved in an insurrection. The people who attacked the Capitol building. Where thugs are criminals are being tracked down and prosecuted. As they should be. But there was no insurrection. That’s right, I said it. The attack on the White House wasn’t said to be an insurrection, the attack on our courthouses, our courthouse in Portland, that wasn’t said to be an insurrection. But they insist this is an insurrection and it was incited by the president. It’s a lie. Sickness is lying in honor at the Capitol building, congressional leaders announced late last week, bestowing on him a sacred tribute that’s typically reserved for dead American political leaders. Right. CNN in sit. In its case, it’s still not known publicly what caused him to collapse the night of the insurrection. Findings from from a medical examiner’s review have not yet been released and authorities have not made any announcements about the ongoing process. I’m just reading what’s here on CNN. We all know whatever CNN reports has to be accurate, according to one law enforcement official, medical examiners did not find signs that the officer sustained any blunt force trauma. So investigators believe that early reports that he was fatally struck by a fire extinguisher are not true. Early reports, it’s endless reports. One possibility being considered by investigators is that Cygnet became ill after interacting with a chemical irritant like pepper spray or bear spray that was deployed in the crowd. But investigators reviewing video of the officers time around the Capitol haven’t been able to confirm that any in tape that has been recovered so far, the official said. The case could also be complicated if sickness had a pre-existing medical condition, it could not be learned if he did. A spokeswoman for the U.S. Capitol Police declined to comment for this story, citing the ongoing investigation. Well, I’m just reading from CNN. It’s really quite remarkable, this story that I saw late last night. As part of the investigation into the riots, prosecutors have charged several with assault against a federal officer stemming from violent episodes at the Capitol, separate from the one involving picnic in court documents, FBI agents have laid out elements of the attacks faced by officers in alarming detail. More than 100 police officers were injured in the melee, including at least 15 officers who required hospitalization, according to court documents. More than 100 officers were injured. Fifteen required hospitalization. Does that sound like people are standing there listening to the president of the United States, then break away after the speech and charge the Capitol building and just happen to have helmets and gas masks and hammers and all other kinds of stuff? Does that make sense to anybody? Sick next case, however, will be without resolution. As he lies in state. And. We are all united in. And the deepest sympathy for his family and in his passing. Which is very, very, very sad. Other people passed away that day to. To my knowledge, and I could be wrong about this, Mr. Producer, only one of them as a result of as far as we know right now. As a result of. Being shot. And that was the 14 year veteran who was in the Capitol building where she should not have been, but she was unarmed. Unarmed. An unarmed. Veteran. You know, Mr. Producer, you could see under different circumstances a different place. Different background. You’d have completely different reporting on this, wouldn’t you? And you’d have a completely different reaction. It’s terrible what happened to the Capitol building, that’s why it’s very, very important that people have. Positions of public prominence, whether it’s in government or broadcasters or whomever they are, be responsible. And reject all violence, but that’s not what we have in this country. We now have some kind of a spectrum of violence that has permitted certain types of violence not permitted depends on the ideology. It depends on the victims. It depends on the perpetrators. It just depends. Right. Can’t just have a moral code against violence, apparently. But I do and you do. That I was shocked to read this. Given all the reporting that’s come before. That Officer Psionic was hit over the head with a fire extinguisher that resulted in his death. This is why we wait for facts. Maybe it was something like that, but this is why we wait for facts. Just like two Sundays ago, we learned about all the preparation that took place. With some of these goons. Prior to there even being a protest, let alone the president’s speech. I’m sure none of this will be relevant at the. Unconstitutional rogue. Impeachment trial in the Senate. Which has no jurisdiction to do anything. But I’m sure they’ll do their damndest to cover up. The information. That not just. Demonstrates and emphasizes that the president didn’t incite. But the vast majority of people who attended this event were nonviolent. They will do their best to cover that up. Because this isn’t a court of law, it’s not a court of justice, it’s a bunch of rabid Democrats. And never Trumper’s. Getting together. To try and do something they have no power to do. I’ll be right back.
Hour 1 Segment 2
When a far left female led domestic terrorism group bombed the U.S. Capitol. What happened to the leaders of that movement? I talked about this some days ago over at Frontpage magazine, Lloyd Billingsley reminds us. He reminds us. What took place? On the evening of November seven, 1983, which I will discuss with you after the break. He reminds us. That Bill Clinton. Commuted the sentences of the two leading offenders. I reminded you that that was at the prodding of Jerrold Nadler. And the Democrat Party. Capitol Hill bombers. You see, the problem we have is context and history. If the Democrat Party actually opposed violence. Why did they wait until now to say so, why do their presidents. Commute the sentences of and give four pardons to domestic terrorists. President Trump didn’t pardon a single individual in advance who attacked the Capitol building. President Trump. Then commute the sentence, I give a pardon to a single terrorist period. Bill Clinton. Handed out pardons like lollipops to felon terrorists except the head terrorist. Because he refused to show any form. Any form of apology whatsoever. Comes Barack Obama, Barack Obama pardons him. Pretty shocking, don’t you think, ladies and gentlemen, Eric Holder was deputy attorney general at the time, that Clinton did what he did and helped them do what he did. And Eric Holder was also quite supportive of the pardon that the head of the FLN, the most radical the radicals, received. So I want to delve into this briefly upon our return. Are you worried about America’s future times of trouble are full of reasons to despair, but those who built and preserved our country didn’t despair. So to do our part, we need to draw on the books, the history and the ideas that gave our forefathers and mothers strength and inspiration.
Hour 1 Segment 3
The day was November seven, 1983. Ronald Reagan was president. The Republicans controlled the Senate. And they had work in control of the House back then, there were a significant number of so-called moderates. Quote, Listen carefully, I’m only going to tell you this one time, unquote, a caller from the Armed Resistance Unit told the operator at the Capitol switchboard there is a bomb in the Capitol building. It will go off in five minutes, evacuate the building. A Senate document bomb explodes in Capitol. Describes what happened. The caller warned that, quote, A bomb had been placed near the chamber in retaliation for recent U.S. military involvement in Grenada and Lebanon. At ten, fifty, eight p.m., quote, A thunderous explosion tore through the second floor of the Capitol’s North Wing, unquote. The device hidden under a bench at the eastern end of the corridor outside the Senate chamber blew off the door to the office of Democratic leader Robert C. Byrd. The blast also punched a potential lethal hole in a wall partition, sending a shower, pulverized brick, plaster and glass into the Republican cloakroom. The adjacent halls were virtually deserted, so many lives had been spared. Later that excuse me, later that night. The armed resistance unit called National Public Radio proclaimed tonight we bombed the U.S. Capitol. The bombers purposely aimed our attack at the institution of imperialist rule rather than a direct at individual members of the ruling class in government. We did not choose to kill any of them at this time, but their lives are not sacred and their hands are stained with blood of millions. Tonight, we bomb the U.S. Capitol, the title, that 20/20 book by historian William Now. And they point out a headline, in the 1980s, a far left female led domestic terrorist group bombed the U.S. Capitol. The armed resistance unit was part of the May 19 communist organization named for the shared birthdays of Malcolm X and Ho Chi Minh. And dedicated to the violent overthrow of the United States government. According to Rosenow. The May 19 communist organization was the first and only woman created and women led terrorist group, but leaders, including Judy Clarke, daughter of high level Communist Party officials. And Maryland Buck and Susan Rosenberg. There’s sort of an offshoot of the Weather Underground which essentially cracked up in the mid 1980s, Rosenow explained, these women decided to continue the armed struggle. Many of them had been in the Weather Underground, but they thought the Weather Underground had made important ideological mistakes. The terrorist group’s bombings claim no victims, but they really at least debated amongst themselves quite intensely. The assassination of police officers, of prosecutors, of military officers. Their inventory of weapons included dynamite, detonation cord and Uzi machine guns, fully automatic with sawed off barrels. Marilyn Bucker attended UC Berkeley Joint Students for a Democratic Society, later lent her services to the Black Liberation Movement. Susan Rosenberg, daughter of progressive parents, saw herself as part of the struggle against U.S. imperialism. At 29, Rosenberg made the FBI’s most wanted list as a suspect in the prison escape of Joanne Chesimard of the ballet Black Liberation Army. Rosenberg was also wanted for a 1981 Brinks robbery in which two police officers and a guard were killed. In 1984, police caught her with 12 guns, some 200 stolen sticks of dynamite, 200. More than 100 sticks of DuPont’s rovics explosives and hundreds of fake ID documents. In 1985, Rosenberg was sentenced to 58 years, but through a plea deal, she escaped additional time for aiding and abetting a series of bombings at the U.S. Capitol, the National War College and New York Patrolmen’s Benevolent Association. After 16 years in prison, the veteran of the May 19th Communist Organization caught a break. On January 20, 2001, his final day in office. President Bill Clinton commuted Rosenberg’s sentence. 2011, Rosenberg published an American radical political prisoner in my own country. And went on to become vice chair of thousand parents, fiscal sponsor of Black Lives Matter Global Network. As it happens, Mitt Romney also supports Black Lives Matter. The 2020 12 presidential loser calls the January six right, an insurrection. But like other politicians, he kept rather quiet during the violent, riotous summer of 20 20. Anyway. The violence of anti-government right wing extremists, explains William Rosenow, hardly rises to the level of a left wing political violence of the 60s, 70s and 80s. Is the author wrote in Politico. The 70s and 80s were a time of political derangement and violent upheaval, and May 19th was in the thick of it. And there was also Linda Evans. She also got a get out of jail free card, she didn’t finish serving her time because. Bill Clinton freed her to. So they free these terrorists excuse me, they free these domestic terrorists. Who are involved in grave violence? Nobody ever talked about impeaching them. Not for that. Eric Holder was all in favor of. Obama. Get out of jail card to the head of the FLN movement, terrorist movement. Which resulted in the death of at least one police officer. And his son often causes program has over the years. And yet they’re going to accuse Donald Trump and they do relentlessly. Event citing and leading an insurrection. It is so shameful. And it’s the usual voices in the usual corners out there. Who pretend to be righteous when they’re not. They’re not in the least. So I wanted to remind you about that. And I also wanted to remind you. That Mollie Hemingway has an excellent piece in The Federalist. Chuck Schumer used violent rhetoric to sick a mob on two Supreme Court justices. Now, we were very vocal about this at the time. As you know, ethics complaints were filed against Schumer. I don’t know whatever happened to them. When Senator Rand Paul spoke against the constitutionality of the Democrats impeachment trial of former President Donald Trump. He reminded his colleagues that Democrat elected officials had recently told their followers to attack Republicans and, you know, poor Rand Paul has been attacked three times physically. One by the lunatic neighbor. One after the Republican convention ended on the South Lawn. I Black Lives Matter. Then, of course, in the Capitol building, he wasn’t personally attacked, but the facility was. So he’s got to wonder to him, Suchi, what does the senator have to do to be safe? Now, if Trump was to be impeached for asking followers to peacefully and patriotically make their voices heard by members of Congress on January six, what to do with Democrats, more incendiary rhetoric and actions. Wondered Rand Paul. Kamala Harris solicited funds to bail out the rioters who destroyed Minneapolis during 20 20 summer break rage, Maxine Waters called on Democrats to seek out Republicans in public places and create a crowd and push back and then let them know they’re not welcome anymore, anywhere. The Bernie Sanders supporter who killed House Republican excuse me, who nearly killed House Republican Whip Steve Scalise at a baseball field in Virginia, said he was motivated to kill for health care after Sanders and other Democrats had said the Republican health care plan was to kill many Americans. Senator Cory Booker told his supporters at one gathering in D.C. to please don’t just come here today and then go home, go to the Hill today, get up and please get up in their face of some congressman. One example Paul left out of his excellent speech is even more relevant than next week’s impeachment trial. Less than one year ago, Senator Chuck Schumer of New York led a mob on the steps of the Supreme Court while a case was being heard and tried to thwart the natural deliberation of justices by violently threatening two of them to rule in favor of his or other Democrats preferred outcome. He said, I want to tell you, Gorsuch, I want to tell you Kavanaugh. You have released the whirlwind. And you will pay the price, you won’t know what hit you if you go forward with these awful decisions, Schumer threaten the two most recently confirmed justices, Gorsuch and Kavanaugh. The threat was so alarming that even left this activists such as Laurence Tribe condemned it. Schumer received a rare same day rebuke from Chief Justice John Roberts, who said justices know that criticism comes with the territory. But threatening statements of this sort from the highest levels of government are not only inappropriate, they’re dangerous. Then Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell condemned Schumer’s remarks as astonishingly reckless and completely irresponsible. But Josh Hawley’s efforts, Senator Whorley in Missouri to censure Schumer for his violent threats were scuttled. They were scuttled. The Washington Post write up of Schumer’s threats, focus instead on Republican opposition to them, GOP seizes on Schumer’s remarks, read the headline. Schumer’s threats came just 17 months after the Supreme Court had been besieged, an attack by abortion activists upset at Kavanaugh’s confirmation. Like the January six event, the October 2018 siege also involved Vice President Mike Pence being condemned by protesters as he walked down the steps of the U.S. Senate following the vote to confirm Kavanaugh. The crowd greeted him with chants of shame. Across the street, hordes of protesters broke through a police barricade and attempted to beat down the 13 ton bronze door, the court. Protesters included a topless woman with a Hitler mustache and another woman who scaled the contemplation of just a statue in front of the court and sat in her lap to the cheers of other protesters. Justices Ruth Bader Ginsburg and Elena Kagan, who attended Kavanagh’s immediate swearing in, were hit with water bottles and tomatoes when their car left the court. Afterward, some 164 people were arrested in that protest. For all the concern about disruptions to the constitutional processes regarding Electoral College votes on January six, there is far less concern from corporate media and others on the left. When Democrat mobs completely disrupted the constitutional proceedings for confirming a Supreme Court justice in twenty eighteen. The Center for Popular Democracy brought 600 protesters to Washington, staging a demonstration in and around the Capitol on August one, 2013. Following the group’s rally, 74 protesters were arrested when they blocked the Senate hallways to prevent cabinet from meeting with senators. Cavanaugh’s first day of hearings included 63 interruptions from Senate Democrats and more than 70 arrests of protesters. The protesters have been flown in by Planned Parenthood Action Fund from across the country. Winnie Wong, a senior adviser to the woman’s march, explained their carefully coordinated message. Members going into the hearing room were given a script where we suggest certain messaging that may resonate more, the storytellers travel and accommodations were paid for, as were their legal aid and bail if they were arrested, which was generally the goal. Later in the hearings, the organizers of the protesters, the Women’s March and Center for Popular Democracy were warning activists that being arrested three times might lead to a night in jail. The group raised sums of more than six figures to finance the protest. This is well organized and scripted, said Wong. This isn’t chaos. Protesters also occupied senators offices managed to shut down the Capitol building and trapped senators in elevators. All this was done to disrupt the constitutional process for confirming a justice. We were planning to shut down the Capitol building, but the authorities were so scared of the women’s wave that they shut it down for us, read a tweet from one activist. Particularly by the standard adopted by the media and Democrats for the second impeachment of Trump, Schumer bears responsibility for the protests and riots at the Supreme Court and in the Senate office buildings, as well as the attempt to destroy the life and family and reputation of Kavanaugh within 23 minutes of Kavanaugh’s nomination. Schumer said, I will oppose Judge Kavanaugh’s nomination with everything I have. His destruction during the Gorsuch confirmation process of the filibuster for Supreme Court justices contributed to the heated rhetoric in the Kavanaugh battle. His refusal to treat the nomination as legitimate included a prohibition on Democrats meeting with Cabinet. More when I return my love in. Are you worried about America’s future times of trouble are full of reasons to despair, but those who built and preserved our country didn’t despair. So to do our part, we need to draw on the books, the history and the ideas that gave our forefathers and mothers strength and inspiration.
Hour 1 Segment 4
Well, this Congresswoman Greene, again, I don’t know anything about her, apparently she’s in trouble for things that she has posted and said in the past, some of which apparently really sort of stupid stuff, nutjob stuff. OK. And I think that standard, if that’s the standard, should be applied across the board, so if you call federal law enforcement storm troopers and you’re the speaker of the House, you should be forced to leave that position. If you’re the chairwoman of a committee and you went on a a rant over and over again about getting in people’s faces and telling people in crowds to go after and hunt down other members of Congress like Maxine Waters, she should be forced to step down. If you’re James Clyburn and you’re going on and on about storm troopers, you should be forced to step down. Tlaib and Omar and AFSC and Pressley and their anti-Semitic comments, particularly Omar and the Tlaib, they should be forced to step down. Let’s have one standard for everybody. Let’s have one standard for everybody, not just OK. Karl Rove says this about Green and Mitch McConnell says gives a crap. Nobody in this in this audience cares a wit but car. Rove over Mitch McConnell have to say what we want is a fair process and fair adjudication. You’ve got anti-semite in the Democrat Party. You have Marxist in the Democrat Party. You have people in the Democrat Party who trash law enforcement today. They’re pretending they like law enforcement and they get away with everything. I’ll be right back.
