He's making sure your weekend is even better by giving you his best . This is the best of Mark Love then . Last week , I told you about Social Security and it's a big deal and it is now expected to go broke even sooner than it had been predicted some time ago I want to circle back to that. But before I do , you know, I noticed something ladies and gentlemen . I notice that this memorandum of understanding is not public. It hasn't been public all weekend . We have the vice president insisted on being called a senior administration official for a while briefing certain individuals, hosts, newspeople, but not you . I don't think you want your information washed through other people . And even they haven't had access to the MOU . Now it was signed electronically on Sunday . It's Monday evening. We're told maybe in twenty four, forty eight hours, we'll see it . The enemy has it, Iran, Qatar has it , Pakistan has it . We the people don't have it, and yet it is supposed to be formally signed again. I think it was Friday . So So Iran has it, Qatar has it, Pakistan has it, we don't have it, and Israel doesn't have it. Odd how we're treating an ally, isn't it? Very very, odd , and I'm going to tell you why. I'm going to tell you why it's odd . One second here . I will I will tell you that hold on one second, Mr. Producer . I want to read what I posted . I don't think I can . Here it is . I'm going to tell you why . Nothing we do in terms of a deal will change the behavior of this enemy . If you don't believe that, you don't know what we're dealing with. If you do believe that , then you know that for them deals are made to be broken . Put aside all the idiocy and static about who loves whom and who does not, that's the game of online thugs and bots. We're dealing with an ideologically committed terrorist state that has slaughtered thousands of our fellow Americans, thousands of people in surrounding countries, thousands of Iranians and, as President Trump said, saw nuclear weapons so they could actually use them to kill us . There was a time not long ago when we never negotiated with terrorists or terror regimes . Today, we have dealt with intermediaries and now directly with terrorists . And a senior administration official even decla red some or many of them now believe their forty seven years of murder, rape, torture, terrorism was a mistake. You believe that ? That they believe it was a mistake? That's pretty shocking, don't you think? The regime is still executing innocent young people at a record pace as I speak . You wouldn't know it during the last several days. They don't even come up anymore. The reporters don't even ask about them . Exactly how has this regime changed ? How ? How has this regime changed? Yes, former leaders are gone, but the regime remains. The ideology remains . The IRG C, their SS, remains, all two hundred thousand of them . And as you can tell, they're not rolling over . We're much more accommodating than we were at the outset . Let's not fool ourselves, ready? This is why all the pressure and berating of Israel and Netanyahu . They simply cannot and must not accommodate the enemy as we wish in ways we would never tolerate in our homeland or in ways the Arabs or Turkey or Pakistan insist they should . We can't be we can't be brow beaten by online thugs or anybody else into silence or said ignorantly why while all this is swirling around and we wait for the actual language of the memorandum of understanding . We want the information and we want to express our opinions . Again, this isn't about what team you're on or a loyalty test or whatever . It's a big damn deal. And we as a people in a nation, we want to get this right. And as far as I'm concerned, many of us are ardent supporters of the president and the administration , and we want to be helpful and provide our own input based on our experiences and knowled ge . Indeed, not everyone in government has all the answers and wisdom and too damn many of them are leaking and pushing their own policies and agendas , apart from the presidents . I know for a fact that Donald Trump is a great and historic president. I know he's a decent and compassionate man who cares deeply about all this. The same could be said about Benjamin Netanyahu who lost his brother in law and was himself injured in battle. The Israeli ambassador lost his eldest son, the early days of the war against Hamas in Gaza a few years back . Neither of our nations are led by dictators or kings , like those that surround Israel , they all have dictators and kings . And we're dealing with a death cult that has seized control of Iran and has more blood on its hands than we can measure. The Iranian regime has not and will never change its ideology . And therein lies the problem doesn't it? Is nearly half a century of evil behavior is demonstrated in their own religious and political leaders and books and preachings make abundantly clear . They're about a cause, a revolution. They will not rest until it is exported everywhere, including into our country , as Allah is said to command them . This is the reality . We are their enemy , whether we want to be or not. They're at war with us, whether we are or not . We, you see, must be destroyed. Those who insist a deal can be made and that it's preferable , well they have to prove it. That's the way our system works. And I'm for one very glad about it . So prove it. What's happening now is some of the people in the administration who've led this, who've been involved in it are trying to control the coverage . That's not going to work. It's not going to last . You and me, Mr. Mr ands America, we the people, this is our country, this is our government . And Congress isn't going to put up with it either for long. So I'm not sure what the game plan is or why it's being done. One of the things I thought, well, maybe it's just not done. Maybe they signed off on something, but they're still going back and forth. Well, if that's the case, then don't sign off on it . Then you have Moron to like Jack Poseyabika, whatever the hell his name is. None of you have ever heard of this guy before likes to hang around with people who support terror regimes . That's right . Guy named Myron . He wore a shirt who was proud mocking the fact that they're cooking six million cookies, meaning Jews . That's who Pozbiak is. He runs something called Human Events, which used to be an outstanding conservative publication. I used to know the owners there and the writers there . This guy's an IQ of a CUM quad . And he actually worked for Turning Point USA, which is part of the problem. These mis grants and malcontents and worse . He works for Turning Point USA. You can go online and see. He keeps talking about the Neocons. What he means is the Jews. Now , he's an Iranian supporter by the way he speaks and the way he acts . And you're going to look at his background. They all have these sort of fascistic connections or supremacist connections, very, very evil people . And I should tell you, ladies and gentlemen, we've tried to reach out to a couple of these slugs, these thugs to bring them on the radio show. They don't respond . They don't respond. They don't want to come on the radio show . They're all tough online , very tough . They throw around sl ogans like Marxists. Oh, you must be a neocon . I don't know, was Trump a neocon ? He decided to go to war correctly so in my view, for the thousand reasons I've given for a thousand times. They oppose him . They oppose him . And yet the neoc ento all this. They don't understand the enemy is the Islamist regime in Tehran . The enemy is the fascist regime in Moscow . The enemy is the communist regime in Beijing . It's not you and me . It's not Israel, it's not Taiwan, and it's not Ukraine, but they think it is . They think it is. And they think think that they're Maga. No, they're Magats. There's a big difference . He's certainly not alone. There's many of them . You got guys online, these thugs who want this to be a debate about whether Donald Trump is a good man or not. He's a great man. That's not the debate . Seems to me we citizens have a responsibility. It's our country . We want to know what's going on and then we give our opinion . Isn't that a good thing, Mr Producer? We want to know what's going on . We don't want to leave it to Washington, DC elites, Democrats or Republicans , media or not . We get to participate. That's the whole reason for the two hundred fiftieth anniversary of our country, the Declaration of Independence, the consent of the govern . And if the memorandum of understanding is this fantastic document , as some are telling us , I can't wait to read it . I really can't . But time will tell . We shall see . For instance, there's a three hundred billion dollars pot of money that is, I guess, funded by Gulf States that will be available if the Iranian regime meets certain demands . Let me ask you something, Mr. and Mrs. America, just based on that . If you're the Iranian regime and you're not going to give up your goal, you're just not going to say it, which is destroy us, Israel and Europe and murder Muslims who don't agree with you, like people in your own country . How are you going to play that ? How are you going to play that ? Is it the way for them to play it is to meet those requirements , then have access to the money and do whatever the hell they want to do, Mr. Producer ? How do we stop them ? How do we stop them ? See, this is how you create forever wars You know, as Patton said when our when our armies were in Europe and first FDR and then Truman said, We got to return home as fast as we can . Patton said but, our arm y's here . We're going to have to deal with these bastards. Let's deal with them now. Now, whether you agree with that or not , under those circumstances, the fact is we got a big percentage of our military sitting there waiting in the Middle East . They and the Israeli military have crushed the Iranian military . So you might ask yourself , what are we waiting for ? I don't know . I know that Turkey didn't want us to continue. I know Saudi Arabia and Qatar didn't want us to continue . I know that Pakistan didn't want us to continue because they're very close to Iran . Well, how do those interests align with ours?

Vice President Advance texted me earlier and yeah, we've texted from time to time asked to come on the program . I'm happy to have him . We've given him basically every day this week except Friday and anytime during the program, so we'll see if that works out. I don't know why people think we're going to mud wrestle. We're not going to mud wrestle. It's going to be very polite , very civil . And we've got questions that I've been watching him on TV . He's got a lot of answers too, so we'll raise some of the questions. It's no big deal . Here's Morgan . We tried to get him on radio the other day. Mr. Producer sent an email to their producer and we know the email address is correct. They never responded . So we're not going to be responding to him . These people they just need clicks and eyes and it is a constant state of hysteria and imbeciility , and that's not what I'm about here . It's another guy Bossobiq. I don't even know this guy, Jack Bossobik with his neo fascist ic in my view, background and put and subordinate background . For some reason he's a TPUSA . He's another one. Then there's this guy Crispy. I was told by Congressman in New Jersey said that this guy is a well known, longtime self promoting hack. So I'm just tired of helping to promote old men on podcasts, nut jobs, on podcasts and nut jobs in some dark corner of a state like New Jersey. And that makes sense, Mr. Producer? I've got friends telling me, don't engage with these people. Now I'll engage from time to time, of course. But this is all they do. Now we're going to start with this threat of the UFC Freedom two hundred fifty White House because this is a big deal to me . It's a very big deal . Now it's getting attention, particularly in the conservative media, but it's being downplayed by the rest of the media. Here it is, New York Post . And yes, then we'll move into Iran and some other issues . Heavily armed TikTokers plotted to attack UFC Freedom two hundred and fifty White House event after relling against Trump, billionaires in Israel , Fed say. Now that sounds to me like a lot of woke right types, doesn't it, Mr. Producer? Trump , billionaires and Israel. And remember the woke right and the Marxist Islamist left have a significant overlap . And it goes on, fanatical TikTokers armed with assault rifles plotted to attack the UFC Freedom two hundred and fifty at the White House South lawn Sunday night. This is really quite shocking . After revving each other up over Jeffrey Epstein, you see you see all these conspiracy nuts with all this stuff all the time? And you have members of Congress , Massy , Luna . They're not the only ones, of course , Roe Connan and so forth. You create these conspiracies, these whack job things . And there's a lot of people who believe them . Or that Israel got us into the war. Does it look today like Israel controls Donald Trump or that I control Donald Trump? It's all lunacy . It's sick . So they were revving each other up. New York Post says in their article as they looked at the complaint filed , over Jeffrey Epstein, billionaires, Israel and a hatred of Donald Trump, according to court papers and sources who spoke with the post . Now this hatred of Donald Trump is also part of the woke right mentality. There's a desperate effort, particularly online by a couple of individuals to try and take traditional constitutional conservatives and then say, see, you agree with the woke right. You don't agree with this MOU. I haven't even seen the MOU. Nobody has seen the MOU to the extent the vice president talks about it or the somebody in the administration talks about it, or it's leaked to certain of the favorite reporters and so forth , we talk about it . What are we supposed to do? Not talk about it, but what I haven't done is used any of the Iranian material because I don't use Iranian news sources . In multiple listen to this, the multiple phase plot called for explosive drones to strike the South lawn during the event , forcing attendees to flee outside the White House where a sniper team could pick them off, officials and prosecutors said, So this is a well thought up mass slaughter that they had in mind . Now, the FBI foiled the Zelda's plans by infiltrating signal chat groups where they're planning, quote, a coordinated attack unquote to kill President Trump and other government officials, according to federal criminal complaints and affidav id unssealed today . At least five suspects were arrested last week and up to ten others are wanted in connection with the plot law enforcement said, look at the size of this group that was conspiring to commit an act of mass murder, including the president of the United States . The suspects face up to life in prison for the murder charges and up to five years for conspiring to commit an act of violence at the White House . The quote ultra religious, unquote, guerrillas espoused quote anti government unquote or anti Israel views and had initially started plotting in a TikTok group called Vanguard of the Old in march twenty twenty six, just a few months ago before moving conversations to a private signal group called Hunters . Hunters is a name that's been given to individuals in our country who are hunting down Jews, just so you know . The Quintet was charged in at least four states, California, Ohio, Missouri, and Nebraska with conspiring to murder members of the government and others after the parent of one alerted local police . President Trump, Vice President JD Vance, tech billionaire Elon Musk and Israeli Prime Minister were all named as potential targets . In addition to members of Congress and a West Virginia state lawmaker according to court documents . As many and as deadly as we can get, said suspected ringleader Abraham Hermosio Alvarez in one of the messages , another , Tyson Proper , was arrested on june tenth after his mother notified the Danville, Ohio Police Department and Knox County Sheriff's Office of concerns about her son's recent firear ms purchases and communicating with certain individuals online, according to an affidavit file in the Southern District of Ohio . Those persons claim to be ex military Christian based, the mother later said in a phone interview with the FBI task force officer . Now their grievances included government corruption , the handling of the Jeffrey Epstein files. How many talk radio buffoons ? How many podcast buffoons? How many members of Congress buffoons have been pushing this Epstein stuff ? And they keep telling us they're going to release names. They don't release names. They've got millions and millions of pages of documents. I don't even know what it is they're looking for, quite frankly . But the handling of the Jeffrey Epstein files, this I mean, who brings this up ? Tucker, Rogan, who else ? A lot of them, Fuentes , these conspirac ies, ladies and gentlemen , they have consequences . And I guarantee you that will not curb what's going on with these people behind these microphones. It'll slow them down and then it'll pick right up again . Proper's mother had overheard him speaking on the phone and mentioning that he was undergoing physical training for recon and hit and run missions , which she understood to mean conducting shootings. Her son had been leaning heavily into his Christian beliefs, but she expressed that those in the Czech groups had been using religion to manipulate and influence her son Christian beliefs? Well, Christian beliefs don't preach slaughtering people, that's for sure. In one of the private chat groups, the suspects debating debated targeting Senator Marsha Blackburn , Senator Jim Justice , Senator Shelley Moore , as well as Virginia, West Virginia GOP Representatives Carol Mill er, Riley Moore and State Delegate Tristan Levitt . I got a possible target. There's a quote, Marsha Blackburn is Senator from Tennessee. Proper said on may thirteenth in the chat , responding that she was a target because the Republican had taken money from the pro Israel lobby and supports them. So this is the whole APAC thing that you're hearing relentlessly from the Jew haters , from the Trump haters, from the Christian haters, APAC . Now all these woke reich types have used APAC. You can go online and you can see it and you can see it . It is incredibly chilling that this suspect named me as a potential target along with other lawmakers Blackburn post on X . I will not let maniacs like this one deter me from celebrating or serving this great nation and I am grateful to law enforcement for keeping us safe. I'll say what a fantastic job to the FBI, secret service, local police forces, and sheriff's offices . You guys are fantastic . Now Levitt, one of the targeted lawmakers, told the New York Post , I'm not intimidated, and I will not be silenced in standing up for the people of West Virginia or our allies, including Israel. Isn't it funny, Mr Producer, Israel is so prominent in all this now . Israel, APAC, Jews . I keep warning people, you're playing with fire and it's going to blow up. It's a very dangerous thing And when they were going to kill people at the UFC event , they were killing everybody there. They wanted to kill the president , the vice president , it didn't matter their faith. And I keep trying to explain people, this is a bigger poison. This is a bigger cancer . And yet it's still there. I dare to go on Twitter or X . I dare to go on there . I dare to go on there, look at any single thing I've posted and then look at the comments . Look at some of the people who comment . Look what they say Shockingly, they work for an institute that I went to at one point and got an award from. Look at that. Look at one of these guys from TPUSA for God's sake. Look at it . And Bannon with the Tel Aviv Levin , I don't mind that, but I know what he's doing. He's telling all the nut jobs. There's the Jew, get the Jew. I know what he's doing. He knows what he's doing It goes on. Each image was lifted from the website trackapac dot com and you know what's behind that? A Marxist , an overseas Marxist has set up the site trackapac. com , which is used online by some of these people who pretend to be Trump supporters, conservatives , America first , MAGA , this is what we're up against, you and me , which opposes the lobbying work of the American Israel Public Affairs Committee and records how much money politicians receive from pro Israel contributions . And others have posted how minimal they are compared to some of these other groups, which is massive . The president was bragging today about trillions of dollars coming to our country from Qatar . Look, the president views that as a wonderful thing. I view it as a very dangerous thing. But we're allowed to have a difference of opinion. I don't stab him in the chest in the back and he doesn't me . There's a difference . There's a difference. I have people in the audience here, some of you who disagree with me and you're wonderful . And that's okay. When executing a search warrant on the home where Proper lived with his parents, FBI agents, and local law enforcement must find a large quantity of boxes of spent ammunition , spent card casings , and other tactical clothing , family members also drew the authorities' attention to comments Proper had made online expressing sympathy for Nazi leader Adolf Hitler. Got that Fuentes , as well as other anti Semitic statements. Proper recently spent three thousand of his high school graduation money on camping gear, food, ballistic plates, a new shotgun, a rifle, lots of ammo, extra magazines, and plate carriers, his father told authorities . Proper confessed investig to ators in on june eleventh interview that he had been planning the coordinated attack with others to jumpstart a revolution in the US because they believed the country was heading to the wrong direction and needed to be torn down so that it could be rebuilt. Mark love . With Donald Trump back in office, one of his biggest adversaries, top Democrat Dick Durbin of Chicago is leading the charge to derail President Trump's agenda at every turn. And now Durbin has a new scheme, a government takeover of your credit card. Right now, Americans have thousands of credit card options, all with equal strong security. But Senator Durbin's plan could result in less security. That means more risk for your credit, your identity, and your financial future. Durbin's bill isn't about helping consumers, it's a giveaway to corporate megastores, which could shift costs onto you while putting your rewards and fraud protections in jeopardy. We've seen Durbin's failed policies before. His last big banking regulation backfired, leading to higher costs and fewer benefits for American families. Tell Republican senators stop Durbin's government takeover of your credit card before it's too late. Learn more at Guardyourcar. com That's Guard Yourcar dot com paid for by the Electronic Payments Coalition You're listening to the best of Mark Levin. Let me tell you something . President Trump wants this MOU to go through as a final deal deal , it's going to go through as a final deal . Nothing anybody says can actually stop it because as I discussed a few days ago , the way that The way that Congress altered the Treaty Clause in effect for Obama also applies to the Trump proposal . And that's a legitimate precedent . So that means you would need two thirds of the members of Congress to block the deal , rather than two thirds of the members present in the Senate to approve it . So all said and done , if the president wants the MOU with changes, without changes, with additions and so forth and so on, that's what's going to happen. So the discussion now is among we the people . We get a shot at this too . We get a shot at it too because Washington's talking about it , the Vice President's home TV and other platforms . The press is reporting about it . The president's talking about it . So of course we get to participate in this . Now, there are those who view this as a loyalty test. There is no loyalty test . Unless somebody is tr ashing the president of the United States, viciously stabbing him in the back, the way Bannon has done, the way Peter Morgan has done, the way Tucker has done, and Megan Kelly has done and some other people, that's a different issue . That's a different issue . But if you have legitimate disagreements and you're in the business of radio or TV, be very odd if you didn't comment on them. So I make no apologies for what I say . The president and I, who we agree, what? ninety eight percent of the time . But just like he serves you, the people of America , I serve you, the people in my audience . And I apply my principles and my beliefs and my values based on the Constitution , based on the Declaration, based on our faiths and our belief systems , and that's how it works. And it's okay . And it's okay . You know, a few decades ago when I was working in the Reagan administration, as Chief of Staff to att orney general Meez , the Immigration and Naturalization Service was in the Department of Justice . They changed the name and they shipped it off. The Department of Homeland Security years after we left when they created that department . And while I was there and I was Chief of Staff for a period , I argued strenuously against against a deal with congressional Democrats where the president would agree to grant citizenship to two point three million illegal aliens in exchange for promised funds to better sec ure the border . We controlled the Senate but not the House . And Tip O'Neill ran the House . And he kept blocking every effort to secure the border further . President Reagan made the deal . He did as promised , but the Democrats reneged They never intended to comply . Nonetheless, I will always adore President Reagan. He was truly a great president. He did so many wonderful things for our country and around the world. He destroyed the Soviet Union . He massively increased the private sector and our prosperity in this country, slashed taxes to unbelievable levels, and so many other wonderful . I campaigned for them twice , but I couldn't get over this issue with granting citizenship to illegal aliens . I have my disagreements with this memorandum of understanding . I don't understand parts of it . I don't mean that I can't comprehend them. I just don't understand them. In fact, as you know, if you've listened to this program, I've said over and over again, any deal with this enemy will be violated, perhaps not during President Reagan, excuse me, President Trump's term, but thereafter for sure. I don't believe they'll never honor any agreement anyway . And I've made my points generally known and I'm going to be very specific about them this evening with you because because in some ways this is a complicated agreement. In some ways, it's fairly simplistic . But I adore President Trump, and I always will adore President Trump . He's a great president and he too is doing great things for our country and around the world . The worst the worst kind of person you can be to yourself is to not be true to your principles . And the worst kind of person you could be to a friend , if you're advising a friend, if you're working for a president , is just to be a yes man or just to be a no man for that matter . Just be a man or a woman . That works . So I will tell you I'll begin now, we'll continue after the break what I think about this from a more micro perspective now that we have more information . So before commenting directly on the MOU, context is critical. When President Trump decided to go to war with the Iranian regime, it was a courageous decision by every measure . He's known and made clear for decades that Iran poses a grave threat to our country and criticize the failure of presidents to deal with it. Indeed, I first met President Trump before he was president in september twenty fifteen , at a huge rally of the Tea Party Patriots from the steps of the Capitol Building , several of us spoke that day . Jenny Beth Martin led the group, as she does now , wonderful lady and there were thousands and thousands of you, conservatives , tea party patriots on the steps of the Capitol Building . And we urged Congress to defeat Obama's nuclear deal in no uncertain terms. The most eloquent and inspiring speech was delivered by Donald Trump. He made the moral and national security case for defeating the Iranian regime and against the Obama sell up. He knew intuitively and by watching what the Iranian regime was doing and had done that it must be denied nuclear weapons no matter the cost . Despite the knowingly false allegations of very evil propagandists , the president has never wared from his position, and he was not convinced or polled dragging and kicking by Israel, Benjamin Netanyahu , or the Jews to fight this war. President Trump ordered this military operation to prevent Iran from getting and using nuclear weapons . In the early days of the war it was a spectacular success . For some reason , a ceasefire was quickly ordered and it lasted for over two months despite the scores of violations by Iran and Hezbollah . Great damage has been done to Iran's military , and as I said, the president deserves enormous credit for having the courage to do what no other president did before him . My fear again is that no other president after him will have the same courage to act should the terms of any agreement be violated . The president then ordered a two day return to military operations when the Iranian regime took out one of our helicopters . Yep. It was quickly ended on a promise by the regime that it would sign on to an MOU . And from day one, I've underscore d that no deal will be honored by these terrorists . Its political theocratic ideology fuels a revolution that compels the catastrophic destruction of the West . We've been through that at great length . And presumably the president knew this as he repeatedly warned if Iran got a nuclear weapon, it would use it against us . Pretty serious, don't you think, folks ? And Iran's pattern of conduct , excuse me, over the last forty seven years makes clear that it uses negotiations as a tactic to further it aims . But we abandoned the military destruction of Iran and we did not use all of our capabilities to destroy the regime. In fact, some were even saying that's not our goal We certainly didn't arm the Iranian people , but we looked for a off ramp as they call it, very odd phrase, an off ramp , in part due to polling and gas prices . To be clear , there was never a plan to use ground forces or be involved in a forever war . These are straw men that are thrown out there by some . Indeed, in my view, if the MOU is not drastically altered during this sixty day negotiation period , a forever war , a continuation of Iran's war on the West is not in doubt . So what does this MOU involve ? And I was working from the closest draft of the MOU publicly available at the time, and it's very close as it turns out , which was fundamentally accurate. Mark Vin The great one, make sure we get even better . This is the best of Mark Levin . Meal Mile Pizza Pie. Me ile Pizza Pie. You know what? Let's open the phones. eight seven seven three eight one three eight one . I wasn't even going to do this. I've now spooked mister Producer and Mr. Callscreen . You know what's interesting, ladies and gentlemen to me , you look at these NATO countries and not one of them helped us in this war, not one . You look what England with its quizzling leader, so called leader , Starmer , has done to their military, has done to their country . He won't lift the finger to support us. You look at France Macron, the president spent a lot of time with him. I'm not sure why, but he won't lift a finger to help us either . Troubling, isn't it? We're taking a third of our jets out of there, apparently . Then you look at this little country of Israel, nine, nine and a half million people , the third largest air force in the world . Some of the best fighters in the world, some of the best intelligence in the world. We didn't go to war with Iran on our own . The president decided to go to war. He wanted to take out those nukes correctly. Absolutely one hundred percent . And we allied Israel . The Saudis weren't involved , Qatar wasn't involved. Egypt wasn't involved, Turkey, a NATO country, they weren't involved. Who was involved? So together, the United States and Israel were a one two punch, incredibly powerful . Within twenty four hours , Komani was taken out The top tier was taken out . That took a lot of intelligence, mostly the Mossad and human intelligence in Iran that had been working with Israel from day one . Our air force , our navy, the munitions we have are second and none . And Israel is a mighty, mighty, powerful force for a tiny country for any country . Israel has a larger air force than France and a larger air force than England for God's sake, and a larger air force than Germany. And it's now selling advanced technology, military technology to Germany and India and Greece and other countries . It has improved RF thirty five It improved our Bradley because of so many battles that they've had to fight . So why would we pick a fight with Israel? What is going on? They out of control ? Is the Prime Minister an issue ? Well, they weren't out of control and he wasn't an issue last June when they cleared the field for twelve days in Iran . And they weren't out of control and the prime minister wasn't a problem when we had decided to go to war on february twenty eighth . As I recall, our great Secretary of War and our great head of the Joint Chiefs of Staff , Hagseth and Cain , they had daily press conferences talking about the great achievements of our military side by side . In fact, talking about like they've never done this before. We've never seen anything like this before. Now , three months later , Netanyahu is a crazy eff . He can't be restrained because Hezbollah is firing missiles and flying drones into their country on a daily basis under what's called a ceasefire . They're literally having to move their population , depopulate northern Israel . Now that's like depopulating northern New Jersey. It's a tiny country . And then they started firing these missiles and sending these drones into central Israel, all at the direction of Iran , all at the direction of Iran . This Hezbollah has murdered hundreds and hundreds our service personnel , including marines, over two hundred marines in a marine barrack in Beirut. I believe JD Vance was a Marine, wasn't he, Mr Producer? They blew up two of our embassies , killed over one hundred of our personnel , Kobart towers , in Saudi Arabia, more military personnel slaughtered. That's just three instances . Hezbollah was never part of Lebanon. Hezbollah was sent into Lebanon by Iran in the late seventies during the Revolution in the early eighties , they assassinated the president, the duly elected president of Lebanon. Lebanon really was a beautiful, beautiful country right there on the Mediterranean . People had to flee . It was a majority Christian country. Now it's about thirty five percent, forty percent Christian. They are abused, they are killed . They don't want Hezbollah there. The government's not strong enough to push them out because the government's been infiltrated by . The army's too weak . It can't outgun Hezbollah . And Hezbollah has remained as the most powerful military force that Iran has, given what Israel and the United States did to Iran. So Israel is left by itself to fight Iran's Hezbollah wing . The problem is Iran won't make an agreement unless we agree and the Arab countries agree that Israel leaves Lebanon and stops firing in self defense . Now we get some mealy malgibrish from our side which says, yeah, you can do it, just don't do too much, don't do it on Fridays, you know, it's just absurd in the middle of a war . Israel's not the first one yet again to fire at Hezbollah. Hezbollah fires at Israel , but they want to preemptively do to Hezbollah, what we and they did preemptively to Iran . They want to put an end to this . The Lebanese government, the president there, has made statement after statement saying Iran has no right to drag us into this agreement that Iran no say in our sovereign nation and they want Hezbollah disarmed and removed. So who's going to disar m and remove Hezbollah? In the early nineteen eighties, there was an agreement signed that Hezbollah would be disarmed and removed. They ripped it up in two years and there they are, decades later . But we so desperately want to deal and I understand it , but I'm focusing on one specific point . That the language and item number one basically actually says that there that there will be a cessation of military operations and that war is permanently ended, permanently ended even before we have a final deal . And within that construct, we include Lebanon . Now you know Iran's going to have Hezbollah, as it did during the ceasefire, as it did today, by the way, fire multiple missiles into Israel. And you know Israel's not going to put up with that for long. Israel is not England. Israel is not France . And so it will be Israel that is going to be blamed. That's the setup if the deal quote, unquote doesn't go through . Now we know that . The enemy knows that . So what's going on here ? Well, the enemy sees this and you know what? They see, man, or those Americans desperate . So Hezbollah, you keep fire missiles in there . And if Israel responds, of course, we'll break down the whole thing. So the Vice President made statements today. You can go online and catch it yourself that I thought were way over the top. He's accusing cabinet members of attacking Donald Trump. We went back and looked, others have gone back and looked. We can't find any such thing. I can't find it . If it's there, somebody will find it but we can't find it. If you're going to say it as vice president, then you need to have the receipts and if not, you need to apologize. And it's not the first place or the last place where he's done this. And then he says, you know, you get two thirds of your arms from us . First of all, how does he has that number off the top of his head And so the alliance in which Israel provides an enormous amount of intelligence and they said today, hey, look, we have provided you with an extreme number of intelligence. We've saved a lot of American lives. We wanted to do that . And we have an expert, John Spencer, who's written at length and I've posted it , how the Israelis take our equipment and improve it because they're actually battle hardened and much of our stuff is not. They've improved the F thirty five. They've improved most of our land vehicles . They've improved other jets . They've improved our missil es . And they just give us the technology. They're at the cutting edge of lasers. They're giving us the technology. Much of the technology we're going to use for the Golden Globe, even though they don't get credit from the administration is from Israel . And the Germans are buying that technology as are other countries . This isn't to brag about Israel. Let's pat them on the back. This is to say what was said about them and our relationship was very inappropriate. Moreover, what wasn't said also was that the vast majority of money that they've been getting of the three point eight billion dollars. Think about that. three point eight billion dollars Of the three point eight billion dollars never leaves our country. Three point three billion of it stays right here and goes right into our industries , paying for American jobs and pensions and health care right here . It's just budget, a budget change . That is they move one number from the book to this book. I'm not denying it happens. I'm just explaining it 's not Oh, here's three point eight billion dollars from the treasury, do whatever you want with it. That's not what it is. It's just very troubling to me that's the way they're treated in a memorandum of understanding after they fought side by side with us. You don't treat an ally that way. Or you're not going to have a lot of allies. That's the problem with NATO. We have allies in name only on paper only . And we may well need them again because Iran's not going away . Three hundred billion dollars . I looked it over . I've heard how this was explained , but the way it's being explained isn't the way it's in the memorandum of understanding. The bottom line for you folks is this . They're going to get around three hundred billion could be more . Not directly from us . First, it'll be given to Mohammed and we'll give it to Spencer, Spencer, will give it to Nancy, Nancy will give it to Fred, and then Fred will give it to to the Iranian regime. Okay, big deal. We're going to lift sanctions immediately . We have twenty four billion dollars of their money. They're going to get the twenty four billion dollars . The Straits of Hormose was opened immediately and it's reduced the price of gasoline, which is what we've wanted here . But it's not just that . There's only a sixty day period, a sixty day period, two months in which what happens ? In which there's free unadulterated passage . After that , the Iranians can charge, and hence the Iranians will manage it That has never been accepted before. When they try that under Reagan, he blew half their navy away in twenty four or forty eight hours . And it's a bad precedent because communist China has claimed the South China Sea is it's built all these phony islands. No , that's international navigable waters . The Straits of Hormouth, that's international navigable waters , but not after this , not after this. Oh, and the nuclear part and the rich uranium part is all the way down number eight out of number fourteen. Number eight . And it doesn't say anything about how this will be handled. Nothing , nothing definitive, but don't worry, Mark, it'll be sixty days worth. Well, don't give up leverage , don't give up leverage that issue, nuclear weapons and nuclear dust, that is uranium isn't resolved. It has to be resolved Ballistic missiles aren't covered . Don't fund terror organizations, that's not covered . So I raise all these things because I want them to improve what's been done in the next sixty days in this deal that is inevitable . So let me tell you what nobody else is going to tell you in this business, not one . The I see the ambassador to the U. S. from Israel posted the following on Twitter . Yesterday , Hamas fired into Israel at ten fifteen one IED at ten fifty seven two explosive UAVs at twelve thirty five nine rockets at twelve thirty seven two rockets , at twelve fifty one ballistic missile , at twelve fifty six, two rockets , at thirteen oh four, six rockets . At sixteen fifty three, two rockets. At seventeen thirty one, three rockets, seventeen thirty six, one rocket. At eighteen twenty four, two rockets. At eighteen thirty nine, five rockets. At eighteen fifty , five rockets. At eighteen fifty four, two rockets. At nineteen twelve, five rockets, at nineteen twenty one four rockets, nineteen thirty seven three rockets, nineteen forty six, six rockets , twelve fifty six, six rockets. That's just yesterday. Didn't sound like two drones in the middle of a desert to me. Mark . You're great at protecting your data, but lots of places could still expose you to identity theft. I thought it was safe.

I try to bring you some good news too . Cut six, go G.o the meeting of the fourth. When we ask voters about this, what do most of them say at this point? This to me is one of the most stunning divides that we have seen. You know, we're talking about polarization in politics. It even comes down to what you believe july fourth actually is. Like what does july fourth mean to you? Celebrate America, friends and family time. Among Republicans, what do you see? You see, the clear majority say it's a time to celebrate America sixty five percent. Among Democrats, however, the plurality disagree. Look at that. What do you see friends and family time at forty two percent versus just twenty four percent who say that what it means most of them is to celebrate America? So even on the basic question of what your life with means to you, we have Republicans on one end saying celebrate America, more of them say that, and Democrats on the other end saying that it means more to them to have time with friends and family. What do they say about the flag? Yeah, okay . So what do they say about the flag? Even on the basic level of flag , look at this. Look at how we have an increasing polarization on this issue. We'll display the flag on july fourth, the American flag back in july of two thousand one, look at this. You had sixty eight percent of Republicans, sixty five percent of Democrats saying that they would in fact display the flag on july fourth. You come over to this side of the screen, Republicans basically are where they were twenty five years ago, right? sixty four percent. But look at that Democratic percentage absolutely plummeting. Just twenty seven percent of Democrats say they will in fact display the flag on july fourth. Democrats and Republicans in different camps even on the simple question of displaying the flag on july fourth, a polarization, a split that simply put did not exist a generation earlier. All right, listen to me. Let's hold on a second . It's not just a split between Democrats and Republicans. It's a split between people who love this country and don't . Only twenty seven percent of Democrats would fly the American flag . You know, I bet if we kept records about who volunteers to serve in the military, they will be brave and heroic Democrats, but I'll bet they're in the minority. I'll bet it splits out just like this flag . I'll bet the majority of Republicans. I really would . Again, it's not the dishonor Democrats who've served in the military. That's not my point. I'm not talking about you. I'm talking about your party . twenty seven percent . This is why when the Democrats talk about destroying the Constitution, the court, the electoral college. They talk about opening the border, letting illegal immigrants in. Many of them are illegal immigrants. Or were ahead Proud to be in American. Okay, what about this idea? Are you proud to be an American? Extremely or very proud to be an American? Again , look at this divide, a growing divide on this question back in January of two thousand one , ninety percent of Republicans, eighty five percent of Democrats, this was after a very contentious two thousand election. Keep in mind, right? With George W. Bush coming into the White House. You come over to this side of the screen in twenty twenty six, look at this. Again, the Democratic percentage absolutely plummets to just twenty nine percent of Democrats say they're extremely are very proud to be an American. That Republican percentage the exact same. ninety and ninety , the Democratic percentage, what is that? That's basically a third of the level that it was just twenty percent twenty nine percent of Democrats say they're extremely or very proud to be an American . twenty nine percent , ninety percent of Republicans . As we've been talking about, the Democratic Party is the party of the reprobates . It's the party of the Malc ontents , the miscreants. It's the party of the Islamists . It's the party of the Marxists . And you got some people who are there who are very patriotic and so forth. I just don't think they realize what they're surrounded with, at least most of them don't, or they feel an attachment to the party because their parents were Democrats. But other than that, there is absolutely no reason to be a Democrat today . twenty nine percent of Democrats do not are not patriotic. That's what that says. twenty nine percent. So they're leaders and they're congressmen. They elect Islamists, they elect Marxists, they elect people who want to destroy our constitutional construct . You know, early on when we were dealing with AOC and then later with Mandami, you would have people on TV Republicans who were talking about , you know, the base of the Democrat Party, the base, I said, It's not the base . It's the Democrat Party . The Democrat Party is this party . It's not just the base . And there you have it . It's not just the base . It's the Democrat Party You know what's upsetting and I'm not going to play it . I don't think . Obama opens his new library. You couldn't tell it's a library. I don't even know what the hell it looks like. To me, it's incredibly ugly and I don't mean to say that because he's a Democrat and it's Obama. I just think it's ugly . And this is going to be the headquarters for this Marxist movement now . Valerie Jarrett at the opening of the Library . She's talked about a moment to recognize the original inhabitants of the land upon which we gathered today. Now this is in Chicago and we honor the council of the Three Fires , the Okab obe, the Ottawa, the whatever, whatever, and another one in here . We acknowledge them . Stolen land Obama says the founders fell short , slavery, white men, property . He has no conception of what was what was What was taking place, what took place ? It's really one of the only governing systems that created a method to correct itself And while slavery was taking place all over the world, including in Africa, that's no excuse . And while the British kept shipping black slaves into this country , they set up a mechanism to deal with it . And then a civil war was fought because it wasn't completely dealt with . Seven hundred thousand casualties. There's not another count ry in the world that fought a civil war over slavery, not one . And there's still slavery taking place in Africa where black Muslims, terrorists are enslaving and raping black Christians. You barely hear about that. I'm guessing they didn't bring that up at the Obama Presidential Library taking place in the Middle East in horrendous ways, taking place in Southeast Asia and Communist China in horrendous ways and North Korean horrendous ways. We can pick out the countries. We know what's going on , but we don't talk about any of that . Any of it ? Obama says his values are American values, not Democrat values. I don't think they're American or Democrat. I'm just being honest. I think they're radical left Radical Left. Eric Holder, he speaks and he trashes the Supreme Court , trying to drive their negatives up so they can get support to destroy it. They probably already have support. If only twenty nine percent of Democrats are patriotic. You know, this is what kills me. This is the greatest country man has ever imagined , put into practice . There's not a better one on the face of the earth, no matter what . And to listen to the way these people talk about it , they know full well that people from all over the world, every color, every background, every creed, every religion, are seeking to come into this country. There's not another country . You might say Europe, no Europe , the government's filled with a bunch of suckers. They're easy targets , people want welfare and so forth. No, you don't come to America, you're not supposed to anyway. That's not what draws people here. It's different . It's different . Yes , except for these people . Except for these people
