Ladies and gentlemen, the following segment of the podcast is presented exclusively by Hillsdale College now and it's one hundred and seventy fifth year. Hillsdale is a truly independent institution where learning is prized and intellectual enthusiasm is valued. Thank you for listening and my sincere appreciation to Hillsdale for their sponsorship is here.

[00:00:24]

Now, broadcasting from the underground command post, deep in the bowels of a hidden bunker, somewhere under the brick and steel of a nondescript building, we've once again made contact with our leader, Mark. Hello, America. Mark Levine here are number eight seven seven three eight one three eight one one eight seven seven three eight one three eight one one. I got to thinking, you know.

[00:02:09]

If, in fact, the Democrats win, if the most extreme political agenda in American history, in the most dangerous anti constitutional agenda in American history becomes reality. It will largely be the fault. Of the suburbs. And senior citizens, I'm not talking about you folks in the audience I'm talking about. Senior citizens generally, and the suburbs, according to what I'm reading. Blue collar workers, union members. Conservatives. People who do not have college degrees, they may have gone to college or community college or not at all.

[00:03:04]

Are fairly strongly in Donald Trump's camp. The weaknesses appear to be among seniors in the suburbs. Now, the irony here cannot really be stressed enough. Seniors. Who are most familiar with the greatness of this country. Who have helped build the greatness of this country and have received much of the benefits of the greatness of this country. Again, I'm not talking about you. You know who I'm talking about.

[00:03:38]

You have in your neighborhoods and your families and among your friends.

[00:03:42]

They will be among those who will vote. To destroy the Supreme Court. To destroy the Senate. To destroy the way we vote under the Electoral College. And destroy the way we legislate. I have the 110 page Communist Manifesto here, it's called Biden Sanders Unity Task Force Recommendations.

[00:04:09]

I believe I am the only. TV or radio host who's actually truthfully read them. Because they're frightening. And they're going to tell you that they have a mandate and that this is their mandate, seniors know that we've spent decades fighting to be energy independent.

[00:04:29]

Today we are energy independent. We don't have to rely on anyone in the Middle East, OPEC.

[00:04:33]

We don't have to rely on Russia. It was a national security threat at one point, there is no such threat anymore. We're now energy independent. One of the first things they attack Biden Sanders unity task force. Is our energy independence, they destroy it. They go after the combustion engine. I'm just telling this to sit the whole country, but seniors in the combustion engine. They don't really know what they're going to replace. They say they're going to replace with electricity.

[00:05:08]

The problem is they go after electricity. They go after all. Reliable common forms of energy. And what do you get? You get California. Brownouts, blackouts, fires. Expenses through the roof. Economic dislocation and people fleeing. So this isn't theoretical, this is reality, we see what happens. With one party rule. And then the suburbs. I did a specific show on this on Fox, I've talked about it on live, we have talked about it repeatedly behind this microphone.

[00:05:55]

Barack Obama and now Joe Biden in particular, Joe Biden, want to destroy the suburbs, it's not just about low income housing.

[00:06:04]

The federal government will decide in no town or suburb in this country, no county in this country can do anything without the approval of the federal government deciding where you can put a library.

[00:06:16]

Where he can put a school. Where you can put a gas station. What kind of zoning I have in terms of housing very hostile to single family homes? They want to devour the tax base in order to help fund the city's. And so this notion of suburbs by the urban planners of the left, by the community activists on the left, this is something they've been wanting for 30 or 40 years to destroy the suburbs.

[00:06:51]

And that the the bizarre irony is, is no matter how many times I say to the president says it apparently doesn't have an impact on the people who live in the suburbs, not you.

[00:07:01]

You know who I mean? It will affect the quality of life it will affect. Representative government who gets to make decisions. It'll affect the school systems that affect how affect everything. Because no longer will suburbs be sovereign. Now, one of the great things about our democracy in America, the two volume book books that Alexis de Tocqueville wrote about is all these different towns and communities and counties and mayors and councils and supervisors and boards. He thought it was magnificent.

[00:07:44]

And he thought because of that, America will never go the way of Europe. That can never be a monarchy, never really a threat.

[00:07:53]

To the Republicanism. But that's true unless the people in the suburbs. Vote to destroy themselves, and what is amazing to me is they just don't believe or they don't comprehend what the Democrat Party has become with the face of Joe Biden. Joe Biden just looks like the uncle who's kind of dazed, but he'd never do these things.

[00:08:18]

But of course, they will. They're telling us they're going to do these things and they're going to make sure they do these things because they're going to legislate without checks and balances.

[00:08:27]

They're going to have the courts back them up no matter how many towns sue in order to get their sovereignty back. It's not going to matter.

[00:08:35]

The fix is in if they get elected. Now I go back to the senior citizens. Joe Biden says he wants to lower the age of Medicare from 65 to 60. The trustees of the Medicare system say Medicare's going broke if you lower the age from 65 to 60. Medicare is dead because it has to cover more people with less money. Having come in, it's over. And people on Medicare and in other forms of government care. Joe Biden has said he believes illegal aliens should have free health care, illegal aliens, that right now is 20 million additional people.

[00:09:21]

They don't believe in borders, so you count 20 million plus chain migration, it's 100 million, 100 million people in the country, in our schools where the suburbs have no say about the schools, no say about where the schools will be, no say about anything. Flooding into the health care system as well. What's going to happen, it's going to collapse. There will be no more Medicare, they talk about Obamacare, pre-existing conditions, there'll be no Obamacare, there won't be enough doctors and nurses and hospitals and facilities, you think the coronavirus put pressure on our medical system?

[00:10:00]

What do you think, 20, 30, 40, 80, 100 million people are going to do who haven't paid one penny into the system? What do you think's going to happen to Medicare when they lower the age to 60? It's going to collapse. The president should have overwhelming support among seniors. He should have overwhelming support in the suburbs. You weigh that against tweets. Tweets, seriously. Really, you want to know about Joe Biden's character?

[00:10:42]

Joe, it's Joe Biden who they should be asking the question, will you denounce white supremacy because Joe Biden embraced white supremacy early in his career into the mid mid years of his career. Donald Trump didn't fight immigration in our cities, in our schools. Joe Biden fought immigration and he not only fought integration and I've read it to you, he sounded like. A horrific segregationist. He penned friendship letters with James Eastland. And John Stennis, two of the greatest segregationists and racists at the time from Mississippi.

[00:11:23]

With Talmage from Georgia. He didn't just work with them, he befriended them. Donald Trump never did anything like that and let the media keep asking him, will you denounce white supremacy?

[00:11:37]

They've never even brought up Joe Biden's record ever. Ever. But will be the senior citizens in our country. And the suburbs in our country. That will turn this country inside out. To be the most radical leftist post constitutional industrial nation on the face of the earth. Senior citizens in the suburbs. I want to salute those. Blue collar workers union. Non-union, I want to salute you. I want to salute you men and women. To get dirt under your fingers who do jobs that a lot of people won't to.

[00:12:35]

While Joe Biden is hiding out in his house. And I want to salute my fellow conservatives. Because it is you who are supporting this president. I want to salute the growing number of Hispanics in this country. Who are supporting this president? I want to salute the growing number. Of black Americans, not significant, but growing who are supporting this president. But based on the data that I'm looking at, if we lose this country. It's going to be due to our senior citizens in our suburbs.

[00:13:18]

Now, look, I know you listen to this show I'm not talking about you don't take it personally. Look, I'm a senior citizen.

[00:13:24]

I just entered the senior citizen age and I live in the suburbs, OK? I'm not condemning you, I'm not condemning me, I'm looking down my street like you should look in your neighborhood. Because according to the data. It's the senior citizens and the suburbs, particularly the women in the suburbs, who are shifting towards Joe Biden, they haven't looked at this agenda.

[00:13:49]

They don't believe Joe Biden is a bad guy. They don't believe he's going to institute these things. And he is.

[00:13:55]

And they are.

[00:13:56]

And there'll be no turning back because they're going to destroy the checks and balances of the Constitution to acquire what they want, a temporary majority, a temporary faction and I saw take place here right in my beloved Commonwealth of Virginia.

[00:14:11]

It took one session. Less than one year. For the Democrats had a small majority in the House and the Senate and their Democrat governor, you know, northen. To institute some of the most radical pro-abortion laws in the nation, some of the most radical gun control laws in the nation. Taxes galore. It's appalling. The polling. So I'm calling on seniors. To talk to your fellow seniors. I'm calling on suburbanites to talk to your fellow suburbanites.

[00:14:54]

Because the irony is. The people who have built this country and have benefited from this country. Are about to vote for a party that is committed to destroying this country, the people who live in the suburbs, which are more and more diverse. But have a better lifestyle than many other people in this country. Many of them, particularly the women, are prepared to vote for the most radical and extremist agenda in American history, where they're going to destroy their own communities, their own schools.

[00:15:31]

It is bizarre, but it's the truth. That's what's lining up here. I'll be right back. Much love in. Folks, I have something serious to talk to you about. I don't have to tell you that we're in a fight for the soul of the country. One side in our country claims that America was founded on bad principles and built on oppression. They've even put together a distorted history of America. The New York Times, 16 19 project.

[00:16:01]

The other side knows, like you do, that our country has done more to achieve and advance liberty than any other in history. The best way to fight back teach the truth. Today we can learn the true story of America from the college that's better at teaching it than any other Hillsdale College. My friends at Hillsdale have put together a great free online course called The Great American Story A Land of Hope. And folks, that's just what we need right now.

[00:16:51]

Pfizer announced today that it could apply for emergency use authorization in the United States for its coronavirus vaccine by late November, that's five to six weeks from now.

[00:17:11]

It's after the election. It would be truly a a sickening irony. If this president, who has worked so hard to get this vaccine as fast as he possibly could, which is a cure, pretty much a vaccine. If he were to lose this election and then two to three weeks later, we have a vaccine. It would be a shame to be a damn shame. That the media and the Democrat Party will have succeeded. In a treacherous campaign.

[00:17:49]

To turn an enormous success that we should be celebrating into an enormous disaster.

[00:17:57]

And an open letter, Pfizer chairman and CEO Albert Purulia. Made the announcement about the progress in developing a coronavirus vaccine with its partner, biotech and biotechnology company, that manufactures immunotherapies.

[00:18:13]

I know there's a great deal of confusion regarding exactly what it will take to ensure its development and approval.

[00:18:19]

And given the critical public health considerations and the importance of transparency, I would like to provide greater clarity around the development timelines for Pfizer's and our partner Biogen techs. covid-19 vaccine. He says are operating at the speed of signs, but there are three steps that must happen before the company can release it. And he goes on, but they're going to seek emergency authorization to make the vaccine available by the end of November, at which time the president has already set up the manufacturing and production and the distribution for the vaccine.

[00:18:58]

We've never seen anything like this in American history. We'll be right back. Folks, I have something serious to talk to you about. I don't have to tell you that we're in a fight for the soul of the country. One side in our country claims that America was founded on bad principles and built on oppression. They've even put together a distorted history of America. The New York Times, 16 19 project. The other side knows, like you do, that our country has done more to achieve and advance liberty than any other in history.

[00:20:20]

Dale McLoughlin now had eight seven seven three eight one three eight one one in just a minute or two, I'm going to tell you something that may surprise some of you. And that is. How similar Abraham Lincoln. And Donald Trump actually are the Trump has more in common with Abraham Lincoln than you might think today, a little bit about Abraham Lincoln, John Krib.

[00:20:50]

Was a fantastic author, and he wrote a piece in the Hill a few days ago. And he's in many ways a historian. He's written about subjects ranging from history to education. During the Reagan administration, he served in the Departments of Justice and Education, National Endowment for the Humanities, and he's a Lincoln Scholar.

[00:21:12]

And he wrote a novel, Old Abe, so he knows what he's talking about. And so while the illiterate media and others keep trying to tear down our president. I keep trying to bring you what I consider to be very substantive information. Trump has more in common with Lincoln than you might think, he writes, This summer's Republican National Convention was full of references to Abraham Lincoln, which is no surprise given that Donald Trump likes to compare himself to the 16th president.

[00:21:47]

It's a comparison that aggravates Trump's critics who don't like to see the man they consider the nation's worst chief executive linked with a man widely regarded as the best. This may make those critics heads explode. But there's some fascinating parallels between the two presidents as well as some contrasts.

[00:22:07]

For starters, they share the same political party.

[00:22:10]

Lincoln was the first Republican president. Trump is the 19th. Both men were long shot candidates. In 1860. Lincoln, like Trump, defeated a field of better connected rivals to capture the Republican nomination and then win the general election. Both men came to office with little or no government experience.

[00:22:30]

Lincoln had served only four terms in the Illinois legislature and one term in Congress. Trump had spent zero time in government. Trump, on the other hand, had far more executive experience before his presidency, Lincoln ran a two man law firm with a reputation for disorganization. He often stored important papers in his hat. And in the corner of a Springfield, Illinois office, at a stack of documents labeled When you can't find it anywhere else, look in this.

[00:23:01]

Both men experienced harsh reactions to their elections in 1860, secessionists wore ribbons with slogans such as resistance to Lincoln is obedience to God resistance. Sound familiar, folks?

[00:23:18]

Lincoln gathered during the most divided era in our nation's history. Trump is governing and perhaps the most acrimonious period since the Civil War.

[00:23:28]

Both presidencies have been times of extreme media partisanship. In Lincoln's day, newspapers were closely aligned with a Democratic or Republican parties, and it showed in their reporting, I covered this and on freedom of the press as well.

[00:23:43]

In 1863, for example, after Lincoln gave the Gettysburg Address, the Democratic Chicago Times proclaimed that, quote, The cheek of every American must tenge excuse me, the cheek of every American must tingle with shame as he reads the silly flat and watery utterances of Lincoln's speech.

[00:24:05]

The Springfield Republican of Massachusetts called it a perfect gem, deep feeling, combatant's compact and thought an expression. Lincoln, like Trump, was furiously attacked in the media, newspapers called him a demon, a buffoon, a miserable failure, a disgrace to the nation, quote, The man who votes for Lincoln now is a traitor, unquote. One Wisconsin newspaper asserted when he ran for re-election in 1864. You can imagine what Southern newspapers wrote of Lincoln.

[00:24:38]

Trump returns the media's fire almost daily, but his assaults have been a war of words, Lincoln's counterattacks could be more aggressive. His administration believes some opposition newspaper fueled treason. And during the civil war, federal authorities sometimes harassed or even closed anti-war newspapers and they arrested editors, Lincoln did not order the suppression, but he rarely objected. Lincoln, like Trump, developed ingenious and end runs around the press to communicate directly with the people, he managed to get letters and speeches widely published so voters would know his thoughts and words.

[00:25:17]

Trump has done the same with rallies, 90 minute press conferences and his tweets.

[00:25:23]

The Washington political establishment viewed Lincoln like Trump with wariness and outright hostility. He was considered a rube from the prairies clearly out of his depth. Mary Lincoln, like Melania Trump, was snubbed by many in the nation's capital. Trump is somewhat of a street fighter. His instinct when hit is to hit back twice as hard in his younger days. Lincoln also was a scrapper. He once defended a colleague from an unruly audience by threatening to break heads with a stone pitcher.

[00:25:55]

On another occasion, he came close to Dooling, a political rival with broadswords. With age, he became more conciliatory as president, he sometimes cooled off by writing blistering letters and then filing them away without mailing them. No tweeting for Lincoln. But Lincoln, of course, was a wartime president. Trump and his allies consider themselves engaged in a kind of soft war on at least two fronts. First, against the swamp that is an entrenched Washington elite and second, against a hard left insurgency that aims to radically transform our country.

[00:26:31]

In both cases, Trump supporters believe he is defending the nation's founding principles. His opponents strenuously disagree. That perhaps is the era of comparison with Lincoln that matters most. Lincoln was fiercely dedicated to our founding principles, especially those in the Declaration of Independence, his favorite founding document, that we are all created equal and we all have the right to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness.

[00:26:59]

He knew that as long as we stick to our founding principles, America can be a great nation. And in the end, history judges presidents largely on the defense of those principles. And that is one reason we admire Lincoln so much. He defended them to the end. If any president from any party wants to be compared to Lincoln, let it be for that, defending our principles to the end. Now, for some of you, this may seem a stretch.

[00:27:33]

But for history, it will not be a stretch. Whatever happens on Election Day and thereafter. I'm going to tell you something now for which I will be marked. Donald Trump will be considered one of the greatest presidents in American history. I am somebody who studies history. I am somebody who is obsessed with reading about American history. Mostly. From original books in original documents, but also others. I've written eight books. Seven of which are about our history, our founding.

[00:28:22]

About our philosophy and our principles and about those that seek to destroy this country with their philosophy and principles. And I do believe. That this president. He's one of the greatest presidents we've ever had. I do believe that. And I'm going to tell you something else for which I will be mocked, but I don't much care because the people who do the mocking are typically. Ignoramuses and political hacks. Donald Trump has run one of the most truthful and honest administrations in American history.

[00:29:08]

Where recent presidents, more modern presidents have used the IRS and have used the FBI. And even the CIA. Like Johnson and Nixon, against their political opponents, against newspapers and the like, Donald Trump has never done any of that.

[00:29:27]

And its history will point out once we get past. The current politicians, the current reporters. And the current author's. Donald Trump will have been a victim. Of aggressive effort. To destroy his candidacy and his president. There's not a resistance that we're facing, ladies and gentlemen, it is a counter-revolution. It's more than a resistance. The Democrat Party from time to time seeks to destroy the country. And so far, it has failed. The question is whether.

[00:30:13]

Enough of our citizens are going to vote to destroy our country. If they're paying attention. I'm asking our seniors I'm asking our fellow citizens in the suburbs, I'm asking people who are even considering voting for Biden, haven't done so yet. Please think about what you're doing. Put aside the corrupt press. There was corrupt press during the civil war, there was corrupt press soon after the founding of the nation, there was corrupt press at the beginning of the last century, including The New York Times.

[00:30:48]

Please put aside the press, let's all think for ourselves. Why do they hate Trump? Because of his tweets? No, of course not. Because he stands in the way. Of the 110 page. Biden Sanders manifesto. Because he nominates people to the bench. Three constitutionalists who seek to uphold the Constitution. Donald Trump isn't a conservative intellectual. He's not a scholar. He's a president. Lincoln wasn't a conservative intellectual and he wasn't a scholar either, but he knew right from wrong, as Donald Trump knows, right from wrong.

[00:31:40]

And both men loved this country. You know, after I interviewed the president. I believe it was on a Thursday that I taped him for the September 17th Life, Liberty and in. The president was kind enough to invite me. And my wife. My stepson had been in town. To attend an event at the National Archives. And at that event at the National Archives, the president gave a. 20 minute speech. About the founders, about the declaration.

[00:32:23]

But the Revolutionary War about the Constitution. Genuinely concerned that all of this is being lost in our public education and our public debate. This was when the riots were as hot as could be. He said, we must. We must get reverence for our country back. We must teach it in our schools. And he's created a commission to do exactly that. This is a remarkable man in so many ways, isn't it? 74 years old. His experience.

[00:33:03]

What tyranny is like. He's experiencing what the extremists are up to. And he's standing up to them. You may not like the way he talks and tweets about the media, but you need to understand the media. These media corporations have thrown in with the extremists. They will survive no matter who's elected. When you look at who makes up the media, George Stephanopoulos. The sham, but the interview Abidin last night, the abuses of our president a week or two earlier.

[00:33:48]

The Savannah Guthrie, as it turns out, I looked it up, her husband is a very active Democrat. A supporter of Obama, they're everywhere. They have ceded the media with leftists and Democrats. That's like seating the media. With supporters of the Confederacy. During the time of Lincoln's presidency. I'm not talking about the ideology, I'm talking about the problem. Think for yourselves. And then get people to vote. We need you to get five to 10 people to vote.

[00:34:26]

And I want to thank the other hosts, some of whom are backbenchers now who are finally encouraging people to vote. I don't know where that all they've been, but I'll do what I have to do. The weekend is ahead of us. You've got to act, I'll be right back, my love, and. Folks, I have something serious to talk to you about, I don't have to tell you that we're in a fight for the soul of the country.

[00:34:54]

One side in our country claims that America was founded on bad principles and built on oppression. They've even put together a distorted history of America. The New York Times, 16 19 project. The other side knows, like you do, that our country has done more to achieve and advance liberty than any other in history. The best way to fight back teach the truth. Today we can learn the true story of America from the college that's better at teaching it than any other Hillsdale College.

[00:36:00]

You know, ladies and gentlemen, I'm just trying to convey to as many people as I can fellow citizens from the deepest crevices of my mind.

[00:36:14]

The case for saving this country. And I'm going to continue to do it, I mean, I've got piles and piles of news stories here and so forth, I'm never going to get to them. And so I'm trying to talk from my heart and my soul to you, my fellow citizens. The weekends here, he got to get five or ten people to vote or lined up to vote each and every one of you, you just can't put it off.

[00:36:40]

We're going to we're going to have a very difficult time in the days and years ahead.

[00:36:44]

You know, the governor of Maryland has made much to do today about the fact that he voted early and voted for Ronald Reagan, that he would not vote for either Biden or Trump.

[00:36:58]

So he threw his vote away. But he wanted to make a statement that he's aragonite. I was a Reaganite in 1976 and 1980, and I have to tell you, I don't remember Governor Hogan being around, but I want to talk to you about that, about Hogan and the so-called Never Trumper Republicans and the Lincoln Group, which besmirches Lincoln's name.

[00:37:22]

Briefly when we come back. And we'll delve into other matters as well.

[00:37:25]

We'll be right back. From the Westwood One podcast network. He's here, he's here. Now, broadcasting from the underground command post, deep in the bowels of a hidden bunker, somewhere under the brick and steel of a nondescript building, we've once again made contact with our leader, Mark. Hello, America. Mark Levin, our number eight seven seven three eight one three eight one one eight seven seven three eight one three eight one one. I want to remind you.

[00:38:10]

When Joe Biden says that there's racial inequality, when Joe Biden says that there's so many things we have to do on the environment, when Joe Biden talks about immigration, I want to remind you that Joe Biden was in the United States Senate. For 39 years. He was vice president for eight years. I want to remind you. Of who he is during the break and I want to dissuade you from doing this, I hope you'll stick with the program.

[00:38:42]

I watched him because Fox has him going on. He's screaming at the top of his lungs. He's mumbling his words, but he's going on with every hot button issue he can possibly think. All these problems he talks about, you've got to wonder. Why doesn't he pay us his salary, his pension and his medical care back? Because all those years he was in Washington, D.C., I just want you to think of a particularly when it comes to integration.

[00:39:13]

He stood with the segregationists.

[00:39:16]

He stood with the segregationist. And it is going to get 90 percent of the black vote. Part of the problem there is you have these these mayors. Many of whom are minorities, who are Democrats before there anything else? You see that some people also. See, that party is their faith, their religion in the culture. People like LeBron James and Doc Rivers and other big Democrats. And so that has an effect that has an influence. And so 90 percent.

[00:40:00]

The black community will wind up voting for Joe Biden. Even though not only hasn't he done a damn thing for the black community. He's got a career. A career where he said racist things and he did racist things, you don't have that with Donald Trump.

[00:40:24]

I want to get back to Lincoln. I want to get back to Lincoln briefly as essential civil war curriculum, as pointed out in 1864 when Lincoln was running for re-election, his re-election was not guaranteed.

[00:40:43]

Now they point out Lincoln's party was deeply split and the Republican Party and he was viewed by many politicians and attended by most of them as their worst possible candidate.

[00:40:55]

In 1864, when he's running for re-election, ranged against him was the radical wing, a band of powerful, angry, vindictive, unhappy and humorless men bent on revenge against the slaveholding South.

[00:41:08]

Again, as essential civil war curriculum points out, the radicals believed, as did Lincoln, that the war must be pushed to final victory and the rebellion crushed.

[00:41:20]

But Lincoln then wanted a benign excuse me liberal reediting of the shattered union as soon as possible, free from recrimination and driven by forgiveness.

[00:41:31]

And Lincoln's second inaugural address makes this abundantly clear. And it's one of the reasons my father did a book on it.

[00:41:39]

The radicals were disinclined to be benign, lenient and forgiving.

[00:41:43]

They were slavery hating abolitionists for the most part, who deplored the kind hearted presidents mettlesome headed approach. They wanted vengeance against the South and its slaveholders, an immediate, unconditional freeing of all slaves and crushing retaliation against their masters, a stern, relentless, pitiless punishment. More importantly, they wanted control of what was to happen. They wanted a south reconstructed and reshaped as they wished it, not as the president wished it. They wanted forever to realign the balance of political power in the union in favor of the Republican Party.

[00:42:24]

But this well-meaning, kind hearted bungling president, as they called him, was standing in their way, was maddening and frustrating for them. To a man, the radicals were displeased with him, they thought him wholly incompetent, too slow, too hesitant, too weak, too soft on the South. They believed he lacked backbone, encouraged corruption, squandered millions, was a flat failure. And they were casting about desperately for somebody, anybody to pit against him.

[00:42:53]

Lincoln's challenge in 1864 was to keep his contentious party moving forward to victory with himself still in the driver's seat at the end, wasn't going to be easy and so much depended on circumstance, particularly how things went on the battlefield.

[00:43:12]

He would have lost potentially. He let Grant know. The head of the union army. And Sherman know really his number two, that he needed a victory. And he needed a victory fairly quickly, a resounding victory. In a battle. Which would become the battle of Atlanta. And it was a resounding victory. It was a crushing victory and it helped Abraham Lincoln win re-election.

[00:43:50]

Abraham Lincoln. It's interesting, John Craib wrote that piece, there's other similarities, Abraham Lincoln. Had fired a number of his generals. Then a number of his generals became political opponents. One of them be would be a gentleman by the name of McLaughlan. Michalina will get the Democrat nomination. To run against his former commander in chief, Abraham Lincoln. McClellan actually won several states. Including some of the north. He won his home state of New Jersey.

[00:44:36]

But in the end, he did lose. And so.

[00:44:44]

When I look at the governor of Maryland, when I look at these governors, Pennsylvania and New Jersey and Ohio, these ex officials in the Bush administration, ex supporters of John McCain, really in the scheme of things, not many, but enough.

[00:45:03]

Who come out against Donald Trump when I look at the Lincoln Project, which should really be called the McLaughlan Project. And the operators and the scammers and the grifters who attach themselves to these organizations and make an enormous amount of money trying to defeat Donald Trump, it is yet another similarity.

[00:45:29]

That Trump faces as Lincoln faced. And so Lincoln went into the election with a mostly united party as Donald Trump goes into this election with a mostly united party.

[00:45:48]

Donald Trump has been running, governing and goes into this election with a press that hates his guts much as Lincoln. Ran for office with not all of it, but a lot of the press that hated his guts. So what's left? So where are we? Well, back then. The American people. Rosa. And voted for Abraham Lincoln. Wasn't a landslide. But it was a good victory. Everybody was biting their fingernails if Lincoln had lost. God knows what would have happened to the United States.

[00:46:40]

The Democrat agenda. Was a radical agenda, was an anti constitutional agenda. Today. For different reasons, of course. Well, the American people rise up. And vote for Donald Trump. Will they vote for a radical extremist agenda? Which will rip our Constitution to shreds. It's the same two parties. The Republican Party in the Democrat Party, the same two parties. And the Republican Party is doing what it did back then, trying to defend the Constitution.

[00:47:30]

Running under the Declaration of Independence. Talking about equality in a colorblind society, the other party is doing what the other party does. Turning citizen against citizen, extraordinarily violent and its supporters. And using the media to try and destroy the Republican candidate, the question is, will the American people be as wise? In 18 days. As they were in 1864. We're about to find out. I'll be right back. My love in. I'm going to be really direct with you if your cellular plan is with Verizon, AT&T, T-Mobile, you're simply paying way too much for the exact same coverage you would get right now with pure talk.

[00:48:28]

So look at your cell phone bill where it shows data usage. The average person who switches to pure talk is using less than four gigs of data a month. But the big carriers are charging you for unlimited data. It's like paying for an entire row on an airplane, but only needing one seat. That's how pure talk saves the average person over 400 dollars a year on their wireless service, unlimited talk, text and two gigs of data, all for just twenty dollars a month.

[00:48:54]

And if you go over on data usage, they don't charge you for it. So folks, switching to pure talk is the easiest decision you'll make today. Go to pure talk to USA Dotcom and then a promo code Lhevinne podcast. When you do, you'll say 50 percent off your first month. That's pure talk. USA Dotcom Promo Code, Leevi and podcast. That's Lhevinne podcast. Pure Talk USA Simply Smarter Wireless.

[00:49:27]

You know, a couple of weeks ago, really probably a year ago, I made the point, not being a campaign finance expert, that what these big tech companies like Facebook and Twitter up to a massive increase in contributions because they consistently and almost relentlessly are helping the Democrat Party and the left in the way that they they handle speech, which is what their their their product is on on their sites.

[00:49:57]

But there's also other issues related to this.

[00:49:59]

And one is called this rule or the section 230. And I'm no expert on that either. But Brennan Carr is a commissioner on the FCC and I want to welcome you.

[00:50:10]

How are you, sir?

[00:50:12]

Great to join you. Thanks for having me. It's a pleasure. What is this, 230?

[00:50:17]

Is it a rule? Is it a regulation? Is it part of a statute? And can you please explain it to us?

[00:50:23]

Yes. Section 230 is a statute that Congress passed back in the 1990s when the Internet was essentially these CompuServe and prodigy messaging boards. There was very little content moderation going on there, very little political speech. People were not building their businesses on these Internet platforms. Flash forward to today, those sort of messaging boards are now the largest companies that history has ever known with more control over more speech than any institution we've seen in the minimal content moderation that they did when Congress passed 230 has flashforward.

[00:50:57]

What we're seeing even just this week, we're putting a thumb on the scale, silencing speech and doing in a way that I think everybody would admit is partisan in favor of Democrats. And one of the reasons they're doing this is because of Section 230. That's why at the FCC, we're going to move forward with reforms to address this issue.

[00:51:16]

Now, what is Section 232? It does two things. One, it says that they are not liable for other people's speech. That's fine. The second piece says that if you're going to take down people's speech on these websites, you need to do so in good faith and you need to do so based on certain specific criteria is in the statute. Otherwise, you're not protected by two, three. Right. All of us have free speech, right?

[00:51:42]

We all have First Amendment rights. Only big tech has these unique and special immunities in the courts have read 230 to give them carte blanche to silence political speech while maintaining their 230 protections. That's not what the statute says. And it needs to be revised so that we can encourage more speech and a diversity of thought. We don't need Silicon Valley telling us what we should think, what we should believe.

[00:52:09]

And, you know, Commissioner, these these large companies have lured people into their platforms. They've encouraged people to join their platforms. They monetize the data. Many of us don't even know what data they're collecting on us. And they sell it. They monetize sites like mine where they put ads on my site and God knows what else they do. I don't monetize that. They do. And so it's not like it's just a soapbox. It is a huge corporation.

[00:52:40]

It is a massive business, as you point out. They're taking advantage of me. They're taking advantage of us. I'm just trying to communicate with my audience and show them articles and give them opinions. You know, I'm freer to do that on radio, honestly, than I am on Facebook or Twitter. We've been getting warnings. We've been getting hits.

[00:52:57]

The amazing I never did before the last 30 days, like I've never seen before on legitimate articles from legitimate sites where they have these phony third party set up at Facebook. They're very liberal that say, no, your position on the climate change is not considered correct. And they're correcting me. And and it's like, what the hell is this? This is pretty outright.

[00:53:19]

You've lured me into this. I've built a massive audience on your site. You have monetized it, and now you're trying to control what I say and intimidate me. That clearly isn't what two two thirty intended. Right.

[00:53:31]

You've nailed it here. Look, these websites can have all the first minute rights that everyone has, have their free to their opinions, but we're no business gets to do in this country is effectively engaged in a bait and switch when these platforms we're looking to grow. They needed people like you. They attracted people like you to help them gain what's now market share. And they did. So they said Twitter in particular, we represent the free speech wing of the free speech party.

[00:53:56]

Diverse views are welcome here. Well, now the people have taken their business there, have helped build up the economic success of these companies based on those representations. Turns out they're trying to turn the dial in a very different direction. And again, whether they have the first minute right to do that is not the question. The question is, does any business get to make representations to its users? We will be politically neutral and then engage in content.

[00:54:21]

That is clearly not. And I think that's a core issue. And that's not just an FCC issue. That's a. Truth Commission is no business in a country that should get away with this type of bait and switch, and they certainly shouldn't be immune, they certainly shouldn't get special protections. There's nothing like these entities. Look, I'm a free market guy.

[00:54:41]

OK? They're not they're trying to control what I'm saying.

[00:54:44]

They're trying to intimidate me. We have a large radio show, a large TV show, have millions of people on these sites. I'm trying to communicate with them and they're interfering with me after I've spent 10 years helping to build up their site with my site.

[00:54:58]

Now, they now after 10 years, they're saying, you know, climate change requires this. Trump didn't really say who the hell are these people? This is really quite outrageous.

[00:55:08]

So at a minimum, they shouldn't get special protections, right?

[00:55:12]

That's exactly right. They have a First Amendment right to free speech. They don't have a First Amendment right to these special unique protections that were designed for basically the mom and pop CompuServe messaging for people who aren't building their livelihood on a sort messaging board. It wasn't core to political speech. And so when you've got the statute that was passed with special protections that courts have expanded over the years to go beyond what Congress intended, it's time to reform it into your point.

[00:55:39]

They have these fact checkers that, let's be honest, they're not checkers, they're political editorializing. And they are slapping labels on speech, not because it's misinformation or disinformation, because they don't believe it. The Internet has the potential, just like radio, to be a great equalizer and one of the reasons for it, because people could speak their minds without having to go through traditional gatekeepers. That's changing. The traditional gatekeepers are trying to seize control of the online conversation.

[00:56:07]

In one way they're doing it is through these so-called backchat. And Republicans for years honestly were asleep at the switch. There was a strong element of the conservative movement that said, look, we should sit on our hands and basically took this abject corporatism approach. Those days are over. We were at a watershed moment. Just this week, Justice Clarence Thomas issued a statement saying that 230 has been read too broadly by the court. Republican leader Kevin McCarthy came out and said it's time to scrap 230.

[00:56:37]

The chairman of the FCC said we're moving forward to reform so the dam is broken. And I think the conservative movement finally realizes that if we care about diversity of thought, it's time to take action.

[00:56:48]

Mm hmm. And when they're censoring people from the president's campaign to the president's spokeswoman and intimidating people, enough is enough. I want to thank you, Brennan car. We're going to be keeping an eye on this. And I think the FCC, the FTC and maybe the FCC should all be taking a look at this. Good luck and God bless. Thank you, sir. All right.

[00:57:09]

Be well, and I'll be right back. Facebook has been censoring as we get closer and closer to the election, it's clear they're trying to sway the outcome with their left wing ideology and control. They are policing my perfectly legitimate posts and they want to shut me up. Nobody shuts me up. Not here on radio, not on live, on TV. This is why it's so important to watch and support Libyan TV on the Blaze TV network. Don't let big tech control what information you're allowed to see and hear.

[00:57:41]

This is our country. This is our election. Now, if they won't let you hear it at Lytvyn TV on the Blaze TV network, we will. You're not currently a subscriber. Make sure you sign up today at Lhevinne TV.com. That's 11:00 and TV dotcom. Subscribe now to watch me. And an amazing roster of conservative voices free for 30 days. That's 30 days of liberty loving content for absolutely free in the lead up to this election. It's crucial, but only if you subscribe right now at Lavant.

[00:58:13]

TV.com, nobody's going to shut me up. Mark Lovette, America's tyranny hotter, call it now, eight seven seven three eight one three eight one one.

[00:58:33]

Now, in addition to all this, you're getting a lot of polls out there and they're making a lot of you very nervous. I have family members that are sending me I have other radios. I don't mind. What are we going to do? Ladies and gentlemen.

[00:58:50]

What do you think George Washington said? When they would see the redcoats lined up against them. You have to fight to win. You can't be intimidated right away. We have a country of heroes, we're surrounded by a country heroes who fought and battles and fought in wars that we were not expected to win.

[00:59:16]

We can do this, but we have to do it. We can't just hope. And this weekend's the perfect time to make sure you're lining up five or ten votes each and every one of you. This is what you do, Samir, tell me you can't sleep at night, OK, well then get up, have a notepad next to your bed and make a list of people you want to call and not just remind them, but make sure they vote, help them with their ballots, help them with mail and help them on Election Day.

[00:59:44]

You don't need to be an official part of the RNC or anything.

[00:59:49]

And if we do this, we are going to shock the nation. I mean, here's a piece in the Hill newspaper. And the headline is Biden Campaign Manager, Race is far closer than experts say. Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden's campaign manager, Jen O'Malley Dillon, says the race against President Trump is, quote, far closer, unquote, than conventional wisdom suggests, despite polls showing the former vice president with a double digit lead over Trump nationally and a smaller but consistent leads in battleground states.

[01:00:25]

Dylan warned over Twitter on Wednesday night that the content excuse me that the contest is a lot closer quote.

[01:00:33]

Early voting is already underway in many states, she wrote. Millions of voters have already cast their ballots, but there's still a long way to go in this campaign. And we think this race is far closer than folks on this Web site that is Twitter think like a lot closer, quote, unquote. Well, we need to make their worst nightmares come true because I happen to think it's a lot closer than that's being said to. I'm no poll expert.

[01:01:03]

But I know enough to know that there's no way that Joe Biden is going to win in a 14 point massive landslide or anything of that sort. But it's bad enough if he wins by one tenth of one point, and that's why we got to get our votes out. And that's why it's up to you. Don't rely on anybody else. It's like the founders, ladies and gentlemen, they all were involved, all of them. They didn't say that Sam Adams, I'll handle it, no.

[01:01:33]

Well, that Paul Revere, you know, I no. This is our country, we're responsible for it. Now, I want to talk to parents for a moment.

[01:01:46]

I spoke to seniors and I spoke to suburbanites earlier.

[01:01:50]

I spoke to all of America. But I want to focus briefly on parents.

[01:01:59]

You know, I'm often baffled and I wrote a book called Plunder and Deceit. I'm often baffled by adults with kids who vote for politicians. Who do horrible things to this country. I'm baffled that your vote for politicians will do things to the country that you would never allow to happen in your own household. Never. And you love your children. I know you do. You want the best schools for them. You want the best opportunities for them, you want them to be safe.

[01:02:37]

You want them to be happy, you want them to be well fed and well clothed. We all do. That's our flesh and blood. But that's the same kind of attitude you have to have when you look at the country, make decisions about who you're going to vote for. When you vote. It impacts your children. When you have a political party that is running on the most extreme and radical agenda in American history. That's going to affect your children.

[01:03:10]

It's going to affect your children for the rest of their lives. Why would you take a chance like that? These people on the left, this Democrat Party, has plans for your public schools that you cannot even imagine, you can even begin to imagine.

[01:03:27]

The brainwashing and indoctrination. Is going to be beyond belief. You already see some of it. They're going to turn your kids against this country. They're going to try and unteach them the values and the morals that you've taught them and that they learn from your faith. It's all right here in 110 page document. And by the way, this is quite the Marxist document because. In a general way, it follows the Communist Manifesto. You know, you say that people say, oh, there he goes, I've read it.

[01:04:06]

Have you? Now, some of you have children. Just because the nature. Of their physicality, the nature of their skin color. Are going to be discriminated against as a matter of federal law. That's what the document provides. They're going to assign privilege to certain races, disadvantage to other races, they're going to assign privilege to certain individuals that decide to do certain things with their genitalia.

[01:04:44]

They're going to assign disadvantage to other individuals, I mean, rather than treat every human being. As a gift from God. As somebody who deserves respect for who they are, their heart and their soul. Regardless of all the physical stuff, rather than treat every person in this country as a human being, a valuable person who should be treated with dignity and respect and equality. They got a whole plan in this document, an entire plan. What are your kids fall in this plan?

[01:05:21]

Do you even know now? You don't know. You do and you don't understand, I'm talking about those who are going to vote for Biden who think they are, they don't even know what I'm talking about. They don't the foggiest idea. This document destroys prosperity, destroys it. It destroys private property rights. It destroys opportunities by claiming it's going to create opportunities through government bureaucracies and redistribution of wealth as the people in Cuba and Venezuela and Iran and on and on and on about those policies.

[01:06:00]

They're going to create for your children poverty. They're going to create for your children dead ends. They're going to create for your children Balkanisation of the society, doesn't this matter? Doesn't it matter? We're not talking about a few taxes and a few regulations and they talk in in. Language that they think is going to pull at your heartstrings. We need to unite the country. How is the Democrat Party uniting the country today? How did Joe Biden unite the country during his 47 years?

[01:06:38]

They've no intention of uniting the country.

[01:06:40]

They have every intention of rewarding certain human beings, disadvantaging certain human beings depending on who they believe will empower them and keep them in power and support their party. That's how they operate. Is that the kind of country you want for your children? The Constitution is what protects us from tyranny. The Constitution is what protects you and your family and your children. The Constitution places limits on these people, limits on their design, limits on their million, ideas on how to control you and your neighborhood and your community and your life and your income and everything else, it even gets worse.

[01:07:25]

Do you know what's going on in New York City, ladies and gentlemen? Do you know what's going on under Governor Andrew Cuomo with the support of Mayor DiCamillo? You know what's going on. They're rounding up Orthodox Jews. They're rounding them up. And arresting some of them. Because they're not following the social distancing rules. Now, of course, if it wasn't for Black Lives Matter or arsonists or looters and you know it, they're not interested in rounding up anybody.

[01:08:02]

They're not interested in social distancing rules they are targeting. Listen to me, because many of you are righteous gentiles. They are targeting Orthodox Jews in New York as I speak. Because of the high holidays, Rosh Hashanah, Yom Kippur, because of Sukkoth, these are these are the big holidays and they come one after another. And the Orthodox Jews, they're not fighting back. They don't go out in the streets with baseball bats and Molotov cocktails. They're not attacking the system, quote unquote.

[01:08:36]

They're not attacking the cops. They love the cops. And the governor keeps targeting the Jews. In America in 20, 20. It's the left. The left listen to how they talk. Why is it that the Democrat Party tolerates AOC, who's an anti-Semite? Why Autolib, who's an anti-Semite? Or Omar, who's an anti-Semite, why is it that the media, the Democrat Party media. Guthrie or whatever her name is, married to an activist Democrat.

[01:09:25]

Asking the president, the United States, about white supremacy, why don't they ever ask the Democrats? I name them specifically about their Jew hatred. Why don't they ever ask them? Why don't they ever ask Joe Biden? About his racist past. Yes, this election, there's a lot at stake, isn't there? A lot at stake, what kind of a country do you want for your children? They are bragging about their effort to destroy the Supreme Court and each and every one of you is going to pay a price for this.

[01:10:08]

They are so giddy, they are so cocky, they are so power hungry, they are telling us flat out, you know, that court used to be an independent court. Yeah. Well, we don't like the fact that the president, the United States is following the Constitution and putting somebody on the court with the Republican Senate before our election because we want to put a radical on there.

[01:10:28]

And so Donald Trump should, for the first time, have any president in American history defer to us. And because he won't defer to us. And this is what Biden's going to say, yes, we need to pack the court because Donald Trump is packing the court. So they're going to use Stalinists like propaganda because they're demagogues. That's what they are. They hate the Constitution because the Constitution gets in the way of progressivism, socialism, Marxism. It places limits on the federal government.

[01:10:54]

They don't want limits on the federal government.

[01:10:56]

So they're going to destroy your Supreme Court. They've told you. They're going to destroy your Supreme Court. So what are they going to destroy the rule of law that is the highest court in the country and its purpose is to uphold the Constitution and our federal statutes. They're going to destroy it. So they're going to destroy the rule of law. They're going to pack the Senate, why so every single thing in this 110 page document becomes law and then if you sue them and go to the Supreme Court, you lose.

[01:11:28]

Why? Because the system is fixed by them. What else are they going to do? They're going to do what they did in California, any election process. That obstructs victories for Democrats, they will destroy. So they can never lose, don't never lose elections, don't control the judiciary and game over. Is that what you want for your kids and your grandkids? A tyranny. Is that what you want, a tyranny? Is that what American soldiers have fought for, a tyranny?

[01:12:09]

I'll be right back. Much love in. I'm going to be really direct with you if your cellular plan is with Verizon, AT&T, T-Mobile, you're simply paying way too much for the exact same coverage you would get right now with pure talk. So look at your cell phone bill where it shows data usage. The average person who switches to pure talk is using less than four gigs of data a month. But the big carriers are charging you for unlimited data.

[01:12:41]

It's like paying for an entire row on an airplane, but only needing one seat. That's how pure talk saves the average person over 400 dollars a year on their wireless service, unlimited talk, text and two gigs of data, all for just twenty dollars a month. And if you go over on data usage, they don't charge you for it. So folks, switching to pure talk is the easiest decision you'll make today. Go to Pure Talk, USA Dotcom and then a promo code luvin podcast.

[01:13:09]

When you do, you'll say 50 percent off your first month. That's pure talk. USA Dotcom Promo Code, Leevi and podcast. That's Lhevinne podcast. Pure Talk USA Simply Smarter Wireless.

[01:13:34]

You know, there's a great a great link victory girls, they call themselves and they show lines, early turnout, these long lines, and you have LeBron James and Michelle Obama and they're not alone talking about, well, this is demonstrates voter suppression.

[01:13:54]

Now, as I've said before, in these various communities, it's up to the local officials who are elected and otherwise to decide where they want precincts.

[01:14:02]

So if it is a mostly African-American committee, let's say it's Atlanta or Fulton County, those are mostly African-Americans make decisions on how many precincts they want and where they put them.

[01:14:13]

So that's kind of a strange thing to say. That's evidence of suppression, but even worse.

[01:14:19]

We have lines of people voting that in and of itself cannot be voter suppression because every one of them gets to vote. So how is that voter suppression and yet this is this is what we have to hear from the left as they turn everything into a race issue. And by the way, after the top of the hour, we're going to dig in to Joe Biden and I'm going to prove he's a corrupt, longtime Washington politician. He doesn't give a damn about union members.

[01:14:47]

He doesn't give a damn about working people. He and his family have made tens of millions of dollars off of, quote, unquote, public service.

[01:14:56]

And foreign companies, Joe Biden and his family are perhaps the most corrupt political family in modern American history. The media are covering it up, Facebook's covering up, Twitters covering it up. They're trying to get through the next 18 days. And there's a few voices that are serious about that, including mine. Come right back. I'll be right here. From the Westwood One podcast network. Ladies and gentlemen, this final hour of the podcast is sponsored exclusively by Aimé, the Association of Mature American Citizens, now over two million conservative members, Strong EMAC believes in and stands up for the values that we care about faith, family and freedom.

[01:15:45]

Thank you for listening and please support Amen. And you can become a member at Amax U.S. Join.

[01:15:53]

He's here now broadcasting live from the underground command post here. Deep in the bowels of a hidden bunker, somewhere under the brick and steel of a nondescript building, we've once again made contact with our leader, Mark. Hello, America. Mark Levin here. If we don't prevent Joe Biden from being elected president, the United States, we won't have the most corrupt political family in American history running the country and not just corrupt, domestically corrupt with foreign actors.

[01:16:39]

We've talked about the Ukraine angle with Hunter Biden, we've talked about how Joe Biden lied, that he didn't know anything about it.

[01:16:46]

I will tell you, because Rudy Giuliani is going to be on my show Sunday for a full hour. And it's very, very important show, very important show, 8:00 p.m. Eastern.

[01:16:57]

On on Fox Life, Liberty and Levin, and if he can't watch it live, I hope you'll DVR because it's going to be a very, very important show. People have talked to Rudy, but as you know, we do a deep dive for the full hour. And I'll let you in on a little secret because it's important.

[01:17:13]

This absolutely was Hunter Biden's computer, his laptop, because, among other things, he had to sign a contract when he left it off with the gentleman in his own handwriting, which said, among other things, that if he didn't pick it up in 90 days would become the property of the store owner while he didn't pick it up in 90 days. So his hand written signature is on the contract. Now at The Washington Post, The New York Times and the rest of the media were serious about this, they would have learned that.

[01:17:45]

Just by asking. But they're not serious about this, so they attack Rudy Giuliani, they attack the Republicans, they attack, attack, attack. And this is a very, very corrupt family, very corrupt family. And as I said the other day on this program, there's enough here should, God forbid, Joe Biden get elected if the Republicans took the House to impeach him?

[01:18:11]

Or at least to conduct an impeachment inquiry again, I know this will drive the left nuts, but they laid the standard down and that's the standard.

[01:18:21]

Now, we talked about Ukraine, Joe Biden lied, he knew about Ukraine, at least he knew that his son was involved in it. And the media could track down this Ukrainian, the number two or number three at Purisma, and they could talk to him, but they choose not to.

[01:18:38]

There's 40000 emails on here, there, naked pictures and sexual videos of this guy on there. That guy being 100 by and also of him using illegal substance and so forth. But The New York Post has done tremendous work here. Hunter Biden pursued lucrative deals involving China's largest private energy company.

[01:19:02]

He's into these energy companies, including one that he said would be interesting for me and my family, quote unquote. That's in an email. This is 2017 when Joe Biden is no longer in public office.

[01:19:12]

By the way, one email sent to Hunter Biden on May 13, 2017, with the subject line expectations included details of remuneration packages, quote unquote, for six people involved in an unspecified business venture.

[01:19:27]

In addition, the email outlined a provisional agreement under which 80 percent of the equity or shares in this new company will be split equally among four people whose initials correspond to the sender and three recipients with H. Apparently referring to Hunter Biden.

[01:19:45]

The deal also listed 10 Jim and 10 held for each for the big guy. Now, who's the big guy? Ladies and gentlemen, you have to infer that it's Joe Biden.

[01:19:56]

Meaning 10 percent for the big guy held for H. Hunter, for his father, the big guy. The emails author James Gilliard of the international consulting firm J2 S.R. also noted, quote, I'm happy to raise any detail with Zhang if there's any shortfalls. Zhang is an apparent reference to Jiang Jun, the former executive director of this Chinese company.

[01:20:23]

Another email sent by Hunter Biden as part of the August 2nd, 2017 chain involved a deal he struck with the since vanished chairman of the of CFC, this Chinese energy company, Yizhe, aiming for a half ownership of a holding company that was expected to provide Hunter Biden with more than 10 million dollars a year.

[01:20:43]

Now, obviously, they're buying access here. OK, that email that says expectation's, it's all about access, access to home, access to his father, for God's sakes. Now, Yee, who has ties to the Chinese military intelligence service, so in other words, it's a national security issue on top of everything else, hasn't been seen since being taken into custody by Chinese authorities in early. Twenty eighteen. And the company CFC CFC went bankrupt earlier this year, according to reports.

[01:21:14]

Gee, I wonder why they disappeared.

[01:21:15]

This guy, Mr. Producer, don't you? He'd be a hell of a witness. Biden wrote that he had sweetened the terms of an earlier three year consulting contract, that CFC that was to pay him 10 million annually, quote, for introductions alone, unquote, introductions along. Access. Quote, The chairman changed that deal after we met in Miami to a much more lasting and lucrative arrangement to create a holding company 50 percent owned by me and 50 percent owned by him, wrote Hunter Biden.

[01:21:54]

Consulting fees and one piece of our income stream, but the reason this proposal by the chairman, I'm quoting was so much more interesting to me and my family. Is that we would also be partners in the equity and profits of the joint ventures investment. A photo dated August one, 2017, shows a handwritten flowchart. Of the ownership of Hudson West split 50/50 between the two entities. And his father will get a piece of the action. George Stephanopoulos last night at a town hall meeting that was 90 minutes in length on ABC News.

[01:22:42]

Didn't ask Joe Biden a single question. About this, not one. He didn't ask Joe Biden a single question about the new information from these emails. Ensnaring Joe Biden, who said on multiple occasions he knew nothing about Obama, knew nothing about his son's business activities, when in fact we have an email that's called evidence. Saying at one of the top officials of that company. Thanked Hunter Biden for the opportunity, The Washington Post, which is splitting hairs, says they don't know what that means.

[01:23:25]

The opportunity to do what or what do they think? But they're not going to pursue it. So ABC News with George Stephanopoulos, who is a Democrat, Clinton flunkey. Didn't ask a single question. Not one. The Washington Post, The New York Times have not asked a single serious question and pursue this because they're flunkeys. Nothing. Joe Biden has been asked about his white supremacy, his opposition to immigration early in his career, not once.

[01:24:05]

Joe Biden has like four or five mansions. In the state of Delaware hasn't been asked once how he came to acquire those mansions.

[01:24:15]

Oh, you're in millions of millions in speeches, 13, 14, 15, 16. And while we're on that subject, he hasn't been asked a single thing about his tax returns, which show that he set up an EZCORP.

[01:24:25]

And I've talked about this multiple times. Others have written about it. That's how I know about it. He set up an S corp so he wouldn't have to pay. Social Security, taxes. Beyond the the cap as a business, and he wouldn't have to pay under Obamacare now think about the the guys going on and on about Obamacare, but he doesn't want to pay into Obamacare like the rest of us after his taxpayer.

[01:24:54]

So this would be the most corrupt political family in American history going in. To run the executive branch. In addition to everything else we've talked about. Now, you've heard a lot about Obamacare lately. I don't have a lot of time, I wish I did, but I want to get into this was an excellent piece by Issues and Insights, a great, great site. Still more Democrat lies about Obamacare. Democrats have spent the bulk of the Amy CONI Barrett hearing warning that she would overturn Obamacare if she makes it to the Supreme Court, causing 130 million Americans to lose protections for preexisting conditions and costs to skyrocket.

[01:25:41]

None of that's true.

[01:25:43]

But then again, Obamacare was built on a big lie. You can keep your plan. Now, what are they talking about? In truth is that the really big donors who care about Obamacare's future supporting Biden Big Pharma, for example, gave more to Biden's campaign this year than Trump's hospitals and nursing home donations were running two to one in Biden's favor. The health care sector overall has given 20 million dollars to Biden, but only 11 million to Trump, according to open secrets.

[01:26:11]

But the lies go much deeper than that. First, the notion that a Judge Barrett is certain to vote against Obamacare, of course, is nonsense, but it's worse than that.

[01:26:24]

It's worse than that there aren't 130 million people who would lose access to health care under the worst circumstances, that figure comes from an Obama administration report that found that at most, 133 million people under the age of 65 have health conditions that could cause insurance companies to charge them more or deny them coverage at the lowest. It's 51 million. Whatever number you choose, 51 million or 133 million, it's wildly exaggerated because even without Obamacare, the vast majority of those people, roughly 85 percent, are already protected.

[01:26:57]

Their pre-existing conditions, too, because they get coverage from employer plans or from the government, neither of which allows, as a matter of law, coverage, denials or higher premiums based on an individual's health status before Obamacare or without Obamacare. The idea that Obamacare has made private health care more affordable is laughable. Almost all the gains in coverage from Obamacare have been the result of its expansion of Medicaid, forcing people onto a poverty program. From 2016 to 2019, unsubsidized enrollment declined by 2.8 million people representing a 45 percent drop nationally.

[01:27:37]

What's more. That's for unsubsidized policies. Gallup survey finds that the share of people who say they've put off medical care because of the cost is higher today than before Obamacare. Obamacare has driven up the cost of your coverage, driven up the cost of your treatment. And 30 percent say they've put off health care because of higher expenses. Among those making less than 40000 a year who are supposedly the main beneficiaries of Obamacare, 36 percent report putting off treatments because of the costs in 2019, up from 30 percent in 2013.

[01:28:14]

Obamacare is insurance crap. It's crap. That's what the Democrats have given you crap at a massive expense for people who can't afford it. I'll be right back.

[01:28:26]

My love in. AMEC, the Association of Mature American Citizens, is one of the fastest growing organizations in America now, over two million conservative members strong and I'm one of them a who believes in and stands up for the values that we constitutional conservatives care about more than talk.

[01:29:12]

And if that's not enough, you'll get Amax bi monthly magazine full of insightful articles on issues that matter to most of us. We conservatives, as I said, I'm an EMAC member and you should be to join today at Amax US. That's a m a c dot us stop supporting the liberal agenda that the other 50 plus organization has been pushing for. Join amoc instead a c us.

[01:29:44]

Lee Zeldin is truly a great member of the House of Representatives. He is really becoming an endangered species, a Republican congressman from New York.

[01:29:56]

His district has been kind of messed around with. A lot of people from New York have permanently moved into his district. Many of them are Democrats, and that's how they plan to vote. He's running against a leftist. And I am very much invested in this race.

[01:30:09]

I don't mean financially, but I think Lee Zeldin is is one of the best members of the House of Representatives, New York's 1st Congressional District. Lee Zeldin, how are you, my friend?

[01:30:19]

I'm doing OK, Mark. A little bit earlier today, by the way, one of those Democrats on the S for because my district includes the Hamptons, was arrested because he not only requested one absentee ballot for his mother who had passed away, but he then a month later requested another absentee ballot for his mother, who had recently passed away. So we're not just dealing with folks on the other side of the aisle trying to take back the seat. They're trying to get their their dead mothers to vote for them, too.

[01:30:49]

Well, what a nice son. And by the way, Lisa, this this concerns me greatly because this is one instance and the guy's court, who the hell knows what's going on out there? You know, New York has a very bad record with respect to fraud and voting doesn't.

[01:31:05]

Oh, so we have a stack of papers of people who are illegally in the country. They successfully registered to vote. Then they actually voted. And the only reason why we were able to capture them is because in order for them to file for U.S. citizenship, they have to submit a letter to the Suffolk County Board of Elections requesting removal from the voter rolls because they're applying for citizenship. So now the Board of Elections is able to provide us documentation. The only reason why we know that they were registered to vote and actually voted because they felt themselves as part of the citizenship process.

[01:31:48]

New York State recently enacted a new law that if you're not in the country legally, you can go to the local DMV and get a driver's license. But while you're there, you will have an option on a form to opt in to vote. But they've actually changed the rule. To make it crazier than the new New York state law is that you will have to opt out. So the person who's illegally in the country. Unbelievable. Will have to opt out.

[01:32:17]

And there's nothing in the system in DMV, the department or vehicles or the board of elections, they can't vet any of them to figure out what their citizenship status is or their legal status.

[01:32:26]

I'll tell you what. Here's what we want to do. We want to gin up your army of supporters there. People need to understand that not only you're not a shoo in, but you're running behind and you got to catch up with this other candidate who is a leftist. And so what do you want people in your district to do? What do you want people in this country to do on your behalf?

[01:32:47]

Well, listen, any support if anyone can visit my website, Ezzeldin for Congress dot com, even if you are somewhere else, you'll live in the 1st Congressional District. If you can send five dollars or 25 dollars, it helps us to fight back. We have we are being badly outspent. We don't just have an opponent who has an ability to self fund, but we have three Democratic super PACs against us. The Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee, House Majority PAC, which is Pelosi Super PAC and its other PAC called 314 Action.

[01:33:22]

And they actually had one of their ads pulled because it was just that far beyond the pale of factual. So ABC fortunately pulled that one off of the air. Anyone who lives in the 1st Congressional District, on top of that support, we start in-person early voting a week from tomorrow and that will be going until November 1st. So people can actually get out there and vote for us as early as a week from tomorrow. We can't take absolutely anything for granted.

[01:33:54]

The other side is fired up, not just that with the top of the ticket, but they are channeling that energy towards trying to take out anyone who is supportive of the president, anyone who has an R next to their name to give more power to Pelosi, to make Schumer the majority leader and of course, to make Biden and Harris put them in charge of the executive branch.

[01:34:16]

Quite a nightmare that Zellman for Congress, Dotcom's LDI and for Congress dotcom already.

[01:34:25]

How can I put this year the sole or maybe one of two Jewish Republicans in the House of Representatives? You're one of two, correct.

[01:34:34]

Or any Jewish organizations that are able to support your cause, supporting your cause. Yes.

[01:34:41]

Or earlier this week the. Republican Jewish coalition launched an independent expenditure in our race of 800000 dollars, which is a big independent expenditure. They launched their first TV ad. They're doing TV, digital and mail. And on the other side, J Street, which is an organization that you're familiar with, is bundling money for my opponent.

[01:35:08]

It's a left wing kook anti-Israel organization that hates you and anybody else that supports Israel. Listen, here's what we're going to do. We're going to hold you over a couple of minutes. We have another guest here, but we're going to hold you over a couple of minutes so you can you can finish your thought.

[01:35:21]

So don't leave us yet. If you can help Lee Zeldin, folks, he's he's one of us. Izzeldin for Congress, Dotcom, Zeldin for Congress, Dotcom. You've seen him. You've seen him on TV defending the president, fighting for liberty. Very, very, very important race. I'll be right back. AMEC, the Association of Mature American Citizens, is one of the fastest growing organizations in America now, over two million conservative members strong, and I'm one of them, a man who believes in and stands up for the values that we constitutional conservatives care about more than talk.

[01:36:01]

AMOC fights a full time presence in Washington. AMOC pushes back against reckless spending disasters like Medicare for all and the expanding reach of the federal government and beyond. Advocacy. Joining a map gives you access to a wealth of benefits and discounts, including special member only, rates on car insurance, travel discounts, cell phone plans and a hell of a lot more. And if that's not enough, you'll get Amax bi monthly magazine full of insightful articles on issues that matter to most of us.

[01:36:31]

We conservatives, as I said, I'm an EMAC member and you should be to join today at Amoco's. That's a.m. AC us stop supporting the liberal agenda that the other 50 plus organization has been pushing for. Join amoc instead a c us.

[01:36:55]

Mark Levin, America's passionately cerebral voice talk with that voice now eight, seven seven three eight one three eight one one.

[01:37:06]

Lee Zeldin, a conservative Republican running in New York's 1st Congressional District, Zellman for Congress, dotcom zeldin for Congress, that he's a good friend. He is a he is a fighter. He's a combat veteran.

[01:37:21]

Just absolutely terrific for for the cause of liberty.

[01:37:25]

So Lee, you were saying your your opponent is one of these anti-Israel ah. You know, real left wing 1019. New York Times like Democrats, right?

[01:37:36]

Yes. A J Street supported candidate who considers herself to be a secular Jew, which, you know, is just a different, different approach to Judaism than I'm used to. She's a leftist. Yes, she absolutely is. And J Street is the type of an organization that would be providing more funding to the Palestinian Authority, which incites violence and financial rewards. Terror. It would be tripping over themselves to to beg Iran to get back into an Iran nuclear deal if they were successful in winning the presidency.

[01:38:15]

So, you know, then they provide cover to certain individuals who set the cause back. And it's confusing. You know, when, you know, when Ilan Omar is able to say everything she was saying over the course of the first several months, especially when she got to the house. And then you have Jewish individuals back in her district, in her state and across the country backing her up, that that empowers, emboldens, embraces them and elevates it.

[01:38:45]

All right, folks. Zeldin for Congress. Dotcom is only a couple of weekends left before the election. And if anybody wants to assist him in his district, you contact them through Zeldin for Congress, dot com and America. All these seats are America's seats. Everybody votes on issues that affect the entire country. And Lee Zeldin is one. Can you imagine losing him and then having a radical kook? It's a big difference. Salvin for Congress that comley.

[01:39:08]

We wish you all the best, my friend.

[01:39:10]

Well, thank you, Mark, and thank you for everything that you do. God bless you.

[01:39:14]

It's a very, very important seat, folks. And we have another friend of the program, Randy Finestra, state senator, Iowa running in the fourth district in Iowa. How are you, sir?

[01:39:28]

Hey, Mark, it's just so great and honored beyond. I mean, I appreciate so much what you do for pushing constitutional conservative conservatism. This is what it's all about. And thank you so much for being the voice of America on this issue. Well, thank you.

[01:39:43]

And, you know, you're one of the seats we've got to have and we should have. And if we're going to take the House and remove Nancy Pelosi, tell us a little bit about yourself.

[01:39:53]

Yeah, so I live in a small town in rural Iowa. And, you know, we live every day. We work hard. I teach business and economics at a small Christian university where I, I send Christian light out into the world that they can spread conservative values, you know, starting a business, raising a family to do and fulfill the American dream. Now, something those coastal elites don't like to hear when I'm not teaching, I'm in the Iowa Senate pushing their conservative agenda, lowering taxes and balancing the budget and protecting our constitutional rights.

[01:40:25]

Tell us about your opponent. Now, my opponent is a left leaning Democrat, and he's very, very outspoken on government run health care. He hides himself on saying, you know, the green New Deal will be a great thing for farmers. I mean, this would absolutely destroy rural America. It costs every farmer 65000 dollars or more a year. And he's taken millions and millions of dollars from the liberal elites out in California and New York. And that's just been a huge problem.

[01:40:55]

Mm hmm.

[01:40:57]

And the Democrats are pouring much money into your district. Exactly.

[01:41:02]

Millions of dollars just keep coming in. And it's all you know, this is a sad thing. You know, we as Iowans, we take care of one another. They help me out. I have over 2900 contributions from Iowans and all his money is coming from California and New York and Massachusetts and things like that. They don't care about middle of America. They don't care about our ag industry. It's disappointing. It's amazing.

[01:41:25]

Everybody, I interview Randy, same situation. They're being outspent. The money's coming from the coasts, you know, from from Hollywood and from New York and Washington. And these billionaires are getting outspent five to six to one.

[01:41:40]

Unbelievable. Believable.

[01:41:42]

And these billionaires and these massive corporations are lining up behind the Democrats, even though the Democrats have retention of of gobbling them up. Maybe maybe they they view this as a safe money.

[01:41:54]

They're paying off. So they suddenly many I don't know. But it's absolutely unbelievable. So people go ahead.

[01:41:59]

We've done for business, you know, what we've all done for business deregulation and all this stuff for open capitalism. And yet you have these same same businesses flocking to the Democrats. I don't get it.

[01:42:10]

It's just it's it's because they're corporatists. They don't believe in capitalism. They're corporatists. And if they can get regulations to put competitors out of business, they will. And they know they can get that out of the Democrats. And you're not one of them. Tell us about your family.

[01:42:25]

Yeah, so I have four wonderful children, three that are in college and one that's an eighth grader. My wife and I have been married twenty eight wonderful years and we live a just a wonderful, normal life in rural rural America. My wife taught for 25 years in kindergarten and and I for the most of my life, I worked in a private candy business of selling candy.

[01:42:48]

You know, now you're talking baby. Absolutely.

[01:42:51]

Black gummy bears. So. But I really live a regular life. Yeah. Yeah.

[01:42:56]

So, well, listen, America, people folks give us an idea of some of the towns in your district.

[01:43:03]

Yeah. So we have a small little town like Sioux City, Iowa, Fort Dodge Denison and Ames. But so many towns are 7000 people, population below. Like I live in a little town of 2500 people born and raised here. And there's so many little towns around me just like that. And, you know, we're just fighting to keep our main streets open. We're just fighting to keep our hospitals. You know, access to health care is so critical right now.

[01:43:28]

And and here you have somebody that says, you know what, we want to get this health care. We want to have government run and we're fighting like ever, because we know there's a lot on the line right now for our main streets, our families and for hospitals and education. It's it's a concern.

[01:43:44]

All right. So if people want to help, where do they go? Yeah, funster for Congress, dot com. And I'll say that again, it starts with an F veenstra for Congress dot com. And my Twitter handle is at Randee Finestra. Any help you could offer would be great.

[01:43:58]

I need to fight against this liberal left leaning Democrat and Fehrnstrom, FEMA and S.

[01:44:04]

T are a people. We're going to go ahead and we're going to post that. Good luck to you, my friend.

[01:44:11]

Thank you, Mark. Continue what you're doing. We love you out here. We all listen to you in northwest Iowa. Keep shouting it to the mountaintops.

[01:44:19]

God bless you, my friend. OK, I want to put a wager out there.

[01:44:25]

The Democrats have been saying to me that if Obamacare is. If the rest of it's found unconstitutional, which is unlikely, I hope it is, by the way, you know, people keep saying the severability clause, a severability clause. Well, maybe not. But if it's found unconstitutional, the Democrats are saying 130 million people with pre-existing conditions won't be able to get insurance for those conditions. Is that what they're saying, Mr. Producer? Even without Obamacare, the vast majority of those people, roughly 85 percent, are already protected because they can get coverage from employer plans or from the government, neither of which allows denials.

[01:45:07]

So I'm going to put 100000 dollars on the table. Who shall we choose, Chuck Schumer. If, in fact he's right or I'm right. Is that fair, Mr.. Am I right or is he right? He's a liar. I'll put another 100000 dollars on the table if Roe versus Wade, and it won't be, but if it's knocked down as unconstitutional that there'll be no more abortions in America, that's what they're saying, even though states can make those decisions.

[01:45:42]

I'll put another 100000 on the table with Schumer.

[01:45:46]

I really to do with Biden, he's a multimillionaire, but I'll do it with Schumer. Because they're liars if Roe v. Wade were knocked down this minute. Women could still get abortions. Well, not in every state. I said women could still get abortions. And if Obamacare was knocked out this minute. The vast majority of people with pre existing conditions would still get be able to get insurance coverage that covers pre-existing conditions because a state law.

[01:46:18]

So that's 200000 dollars I put on the table, Mr. Producer. So, Chuck Schumer, you want to take a bet with me, you want to put up 100000 twice. You lying sack of. Oatmeal. Is that right? Yes, something like that, so we'll do that. I've done that. See what happens. I'll be right back.

[01:46:42]

[01:48:03]

You know, it's sickening what these hack politicians do with all this money. I live in Virginia, so I got to watch this Mark Warner, who's good for nothing, and he's running these ads saying he secured two trillion dollars in relief aid.

[01:48:15]

He did not do any such thing. Then he well, he's going to make sure the schools are safe. He's going to do that. This guy is a loser.

[01:48:23]

He's a pathetic bum, and he's running against a real war hero who lost his right leg. Lost his right leg. And it's a brilliant young man. And then he says, oh, he's pretty much a kook, a conspiracy theorist, because he believes wearing a mask is tyranny, we all know what he meant. WORNER You post you good for nothing.
