    On Monday’s Mark Levin Show, those exploiting the MAGA movement for personal gain have been exposed. These fake MAGA figures, like Chatsworth Qatarlson (Tucker Carlson), are grifting, lying, and promoting anti-American sentiments while falsely claiming to support America First. They support regimes like
    Iran and Qatar, which funded terrorism and undermined U.S. interests. Fake
    MAGA is very upset that their team, Iran, is losing. They want you to believe that patriotism is isolationism. The choice is between real MAGA and fake
    MAGA. Later, Minister of Strategic Affairs of Israel Ron Dermer calls in to provide an update on the Israel/Iran war. The highly successful operation targeted Iran’s military nuclear program and missile capabilities. Dermer praises the precision of Israel’s pilots and intelligence, noting the elimination of key terror figures in the operation’s opening minutes, and expresses confidence in achieving Israel’s strategic goals. By confronting Iran, both Israel’s and America’s futures are being secured. Also, President Trump issued a statement expressing regret that Iran did not sign a nuclear deal he had urged them to accept, calling it a shame and a waste of human
    life. He emphasized, in all caps, that “IRAN CANNOT HAVE A NUCLEAR WEAPON,” a stance he has consistently reiterated throughout his political career. He is
    a non-interventionist commander-in-chief who avoids conflict when possible
    but is prepared to act decisively to prevent Iran from acquiring nuclear weapons. We, in real MAGA, real American patriots, stand with Trump, our military, and our Israeli allies! Whatever is happening, we should strongly support our president and our troops, pray for them, speak out for them, and condemn any of the fake MAGA grifters, Marxists, Islamists, and the rest who seek to undermine our country especially at a time like this. President
    Trump has made clear that he wants peace, and that the Iranian regime with nuclear weapons is not about peace but genocide. For the vast majority of Americans, nothing could be clearer.

    Segment 1
    Hello America. Mark Levin here. Our number 877-381-3811. 877-381-3811. And one of the. Thank you. I spent several weeks here and now they’ve expose themselves. That is individuals who have glommed onto the MAGA movement,
    Donald Trump’s movement, to try and hijack it. To try and grift off it. The train whore themselves as a result of it. And we’ve exposed them. You and I. We’ve exposed them. Most of them are anti-American, where they keep talking about America first. Israel is winning this war that started Friday evening
    as we were on the air here. It’s only Monday evening. They have fought a spectacular war thus far. That a single American soldier has been involved in any direct way firing bullets or having bullets fired at them. Thank God. And yet the fake MAGA. That has spent years lying to you, deceiving you.
    Separating you from your money. They’re very upset tonight. Because their
    team, the Islamo Nazi regime in Tehran, is losing. They have coddled. These regimes in the Middle East they have cobbled. A war criminal. Putin. They
    want you to believe that patriotism. Is isolationism, even in the face of a country, a regime like Iran. That has killed 603 American soldiers. That has maimed thousands of American soldiers. And then fake MAGA is telling you that they stand for the United States military. Well, they’re undermining the
    United States military and our assets. That are in place throughout the
    world, not just the Middle East, throughout the world. Many of our military assets in the Middle East have nothing to do with Israel. Chadwick Guitar Olsen, his favorite murderous monarch monarchical regime, has the biggest United States based in the Middle East. He hasn’t said that ought to close down. He hasn’t said we ought to withdraw our troops and our jets from that base. Now he’s busy, wet kissing, thick dictator, monarch of Qatar. Which is funded Hamas, which gave aid and comfort and cover and safe haven to the mastermind of 911 when our FBI was about to nab him. The Qatari monarchy gave him a passport. And a plane out of the country. A year or two later, he attacked us on 911. Chatsworth, Qatar. Olsson. Sucked up. To that monarchy
    and that regime. And he want you to believe he’s America first and he wants
    you to believe he cares about the cops and the firefighters. They died in
    those towers. He wants you to believe he cares about our military when he
    could care less. He hasn’t called for the closure of the main base in Qatar, has he? That’s our biggest base. With a base in Iraq. Israel didn’t put the base in Iraq. That base in Iraq isn’t there for Israel. When we went to war with Iraq, we put the base in Iraq. So why are they focused on Israel? Fake MAGA. Because most of them are Jew haters and anti-Semites and most of them
    are America haters. Not all, Not all, but most. Starting with Chatsworth. Qatar’s. How do they support our troops? By telling them they’re not needed. There’s that how they support our troops. I don’t think so. These guys are thugs. When you challenge them in a substantive or intellectual way, they try to smear you. So you got to get down into the gutter and duke it out with
    him. And what President Trump sees, what I see, what more and more people
    see, is that these people are not only paper tigers, they’re loathsome, absolutely loathsome. They’ve nothing in common with you. Chatsworth. Katie Carlson is a trust fund baby. From the Swanson frozen food. Dynasty. He went
    to prep school. He’s got a preppy, sort of effeminate way about him. The way
    he speaks, the way he laughs, the way he carries himself. But you want to be
    a regular guy. See? So he shows up at UFC events. Regular guy. Tough guy. His team is losing. So he trashes Donald Trump. Those of you who voted for Donald Trump, those of you who support his policies. Those of you who want to defeat the Democrats on the left. He does not. Because now he’s trashing Donald
    Trump is only a matter of time. So the comedians that surround him and his
    ilk, comedians that aren’t funny, they don’t even tell jokes. They just are a joke. And most of them. I’ve never lifted a finger for this country, and I don’t even mean in battle. I just been in been supporting our troops. Supporting our cops, supporting our firefighters. How have they. When you are defending a regime in Iran, they’re not just opposed to, quote unquote, war. They are defending right now the regime in Iran. The regime in Iran is about
    to fall in a few more weeks if the Israelis are left to finish them off. But they think they have a lifeline in Chatsworth, Cotterell said. They think
    they have a lifeline. And the jokes of these comedians. Her podcast is. Well, the young generation of people. Who happen to be among the most patriotic in the country. They feed on them. They lie to them. They sell them. They sell them hate for their own country, for our military, for Jews. Another star, an evangelical Christians among them either. Have you noticed that the vast majority of evangelical Christians and evangelical Christian leaders like my dear friend, Pastor John Hagee, and so many others? They don’t stand with
    these reprobates. They want nothing to do with these reprobates. I’ll tell
    you what. Evangelical Christians and Christians and people of good faith all over the world, and especially in this audience and in this country. They
    love the Holy Land and they know what will happen to the Holy Land. They know what will happen to the birthplace of Judaism and Christianity. They know
    what will happen. If the Islamo Nazis have their way. The things I tell you, the things we talk about, they’re not imaginary. It’s not fear mongering. That’s what they do. When we hit on 911 or not, who hit us? We have a whole
    TSA program. Every time you get on an airplane, you have to be hassled and so forth. Why is that? To protect us from Jews and Christians. Or Islamists and jihadis. Who is it that tried to assassinate our president? Marxists, madmen and Islamists based in Tehran? That’s reality. That’s a fact. Now we all
    know. We all know of this ilk. We all know what we’re dealing with here. A cancer. A poison. We’ve got Marxists. We’ve got Islamists. And these anti- American, un-American isolationists who just like the Islamists and the Marxists, use the American flag, wrapped themselves in the American flag and insist that you agree with them or you’re not a patriot. What have they done
    to support our military? Other than say, don’t use our military. Obviously it is a very serious matter when our military. It’s entered into combat and we elected a man, Donald Trump, our commander in chief, who’s well aware of
    that. We know what he did in his first term, but people forget in his first term, this same fake MAGA, the same kartal sense among others, trashed him
    and attacked him. When he took out Soleimani. Who was Soleimani? Soleimani
    was the chief. The chief organizer strategist. For the Iranian military and intelligence attacks around the world. He was the right hand of Khomeini. He was killing our soldiers. He was maiming our soldiers. Trump took it out. And Qatar Wilson and his ilk attacked Trump said they would start World War
    Three. Well, is there a World War three? And by the way, tell me which Arab country wants to join with Iran? Not one. Maybe Qatar. And maybe if Katara
    Sun likes Qatar so much rather than hiding in Maine in his little hovel.
    Maybe he should go there. Well, he’ll be fully welcomed. Or maybe he can go
    to Moscow where he likes the subway system. Just a thought. As he basically lives in hiding. He’s a weird, perverse dude. Weird. It’s okay. He’s unraveling. He’s panicking. He’s going to a couple of his friends, some of
    whom are my friends, I thought going to a couple of his friends. And relies
    on a few of these and these website phony news operations. They give him the attention he wants. He’s jealous beyond belief. Of Fox News. He’s jealous beyond belief. Of conservative talk radio. He’s jealous beyond belief of Sean HANNITY and Ben SHAPIRO. And a host of others. I told you, he’s a trust fund, Preppie. That’s what he is. Expected to be handed a success. It’s multimillionaires and billionaires that fund his projects. I don’t have multimillionaires and billionaires that fund what I do. I live or die by
    radio ratings. I live rap die by TV ratings. That’s how I function. That’s
    what we do. My books either sell or they don’t sell. It’s called the market system. I don’t have a billionaire buying my books. I don’t know a
    billionaire setting me up in a studio. I don’t have any of that stuff. And I don’t want it. He does. He can’t survive without millionaires and
    billionaires, quote unquote, going in business with him. Canny. No, he can’t. Is a false prophet. He’s also a moron. Don’t let that preppy. That preppy
    tone, that effeminate tone. Substitute for intelligence. How intelligence can intelligence can you be to be rooting for Iran? It’s really quite simple, America. Really black and white. Isn’t it? I want you to hear what the president said on the way out when a reporter threw a question to him as co- producer. Nice and loud, K-25, Go home, he responded. Carlson Criticizing
    you, saying that you were complicit in the war. I don’t know what Tucker Carlson is saying. Let them go get a television network and say it so that people listen to what he’s saying is he really doesn’t have a following other than that little cabal of his and so forth. He works so hard and social media to get his hits. I don’t live on social media or post there, but that’s not where I live. Now he’s attacking the press in the United States as complicit
    in war because he’s backing an ally. He’s not sending in a quarter of a
    million troops. No. But he’s backing an ally and and Qatar olsson’s world
    view back an ally against an Islamist Nazi Nazi regime that wants to destroy us. You’re the problem. Now he’s the cancer. I’ll be right back.

    Segment 2
    I think probably the dumbest memory the House of Representatives has to be. There’s Marjorie Taylor GREENE. Now 99.9% of America don’t even know who the hell I’m talking about. Probably a big percentage of the people in our own district don’t know who the hell I’m talking about. She’s decided to side
    with the Islamo Nazi regime in Tehran. She’s decided to side with. Her boy, Chatsworth. Guitar. Elton she. Ladies and gentlemen, the choice is not clear. It’s either real MAGA or fake MAGA. You either support the Commander in
    chief, Donald Trump, or these hangers on, these grifters, these bleeding hemorrhoids at the body politic. I’ll be right back.

    Segment 3
    It’s a great honor to have on the program right now Ron Dermer, Minister of Strategic Affairs. He’s the former ambassador to the United States from
    Israel. He is a top confidant of the Prime Minister. He’s been involved in
    the hostage negotiations, involved in other negotiations. Ron Dermer, how are you, sir? Well, we’re we’re a big fight and we’re winning, thanks to the leadership of Prime Minister Netanyahu, understanding and recognizing a
    danger before it materializes into an existential threat that you can’t deal with. He said the other day in one of his interviews that Churchill talked about, a jarring gong that wakes up democracies where we don’t want to be
    gone. And that’s why we did the operation that we did that we started very early Friday morning to remove to threats the threat of Iran’s military
    nuclear program and also the threat of their ballistic missile program. And some of your listeners, if they get to their television screens or online,
    can see what these one ton missiles, the kind of damage they can do and kind
    of destroy a whole neighborhood. Now, imagine that Iran would have 10,000 of those missiles or 20,000 of those missiles. That in itself would be an existential threat. So we launched that attack early Friday morning. It was extremely successful. It actually exceeded our expectations and we had pretty high expectations, but I think no effect. And so I think we had probably the best pilots in the world. And I think our intel was terrific and we were able to take out a lot of these terror masters in the first several minutes of the battle. And the prime minister is just is leading this operation and making sure that we’re going to achieve our goals. And I’m confident that we will.
    So remind the American people, what are your key goals here? Well, Iran is a regime that openly calls and actively works towards the destruction of
    Israel, and they are building a nuclear weapon. That’s why they’ve invested millions of dollars into this program. That’s why they build these massive facilities underneath mountains. It’s not because they want peaceful nuclear energy. You know, they got enough oil. The whole idea that they need peaceful nuclear energy is patently ridiculous. But even if they wanted it and they do have one nuclear facility, that’s fine. Let them have peaceful nuclear
    energy. What they don’t have to do is have an industrial sized enrichment program. And the reason why they have that is because they want nuclear weapons. In the last four years, Iran has enriched a high level of uranium, enriched uranium to a high level, enough for nine atomic bombs. They have enough enriched uranium overall for 17, almost 18 atomic bombs. This is not a peaceful nuclear energy program. And what we saw is how in recent years
    they’re doing more and more high enrichment. And then in the last few months, Mark, we could see in our intelligence and this is intelligence that we share with the United States that Iran was taking steps in its nuclear
    weaponization program, where you actually take that enriched uranium and you weaponize it. It was taking steps that it had never taken before. So we can just sit back and wait and pretend like they’re not going to build a nuclear weapon and hope for the best or we can act. And I think the test of
    leadership is to act to thwart a danger in time. And the prime minister has been warning the world over this, as you know, for over. 20 years. I mean,
    I’ve been I’ve been working with them actually for 25. But he’s been wanting the world even longer than that. And ever since I met him in the first
    meeting when he talked about the dangers of Iran’s nuclear weapons program, a lot of times the world was deaf to this. And he and he and he warned And he warned and he warned. And then when he was a prime minister, he’s our longest serving prime minister is, you know, some 18 years. And he acted and
    different operations with the United States separate from the United States
    to delay the program. He didn’t stop it, but he delayed it. He did everything he could to prevent us having to have this confrontation. And remember that speech to Congress that he gave that was a decade ago where the world was
    going to do a deal that would allow Iran not just to sneak in or break in to
    a nuclear weapon, but to just walk into a nuclear weapon, which is why we opposed it. And thank God President Trump opposed that deal and thank God he left this deal. We would in much worse situation today. So we delayed it and delayed it and delayed it for years, even a decade. But at some point, delay
    is not enough. You got to work to thwart it and to stop it. And that’s what Israel is doing right now. And we started that operation Friday. We’re on day four of this operation, and we’re going to achieve the goal of removing the threat of an atomic bomb over the heads of Israel from a regime that openly calls for our destruction. And your listeners know that for Iran, we’re just
    a little Satan. America is the Great Satan. So when actually acting to defend ourselves, we’re also defending America and we’re defending all the Arabs in the region. And they may they may put out a condemnation and they may say things publicly. Believe me, they’re rejoicing. They want Israel to win this battle because they know the threat that Iran poses to them. Now, besides the nuclear threat Iran poses that poses this ballistic missile threat, they’re ramping up production of these one ton missiles that are like buses that are flying through the air and taking out sheering off sides of buildings.
    They’re trying to produce this thing at a clip of 300 a month. That’s around 3500 a year, which means in three years, if we do nothing, they have 10,000
    of these rockets, I mean missiles. And in another three years they have
    20,000. Now, who’s going to try to stop Iran when they can rain down 10,000
    or 20,000 of these one ton missiles on us or anyone else for that matter, No one. And they can use those missiles to then rush ahead to get a nuclear weapon. So we have to act in order to prevent this. And I’m very grateful for the prime Minister’s leadership. This is it’s never a simple decision to act preemptively. But the greatest leaders, they do just that and they don’t wait to be hit and then act because then it is actually too late. And so I think
    we are where we are and we’re on a road to victory. And we really believe
    that our fight is America’s fight and our victory will be America’s victory. And I’m very grateful. And the prime minister is very grateful for President Trump’s support that he’s given. America is with a shoulder to shoulder on defense. You got Aegis ships, you got the SAT anti missile program that is knocking down these missiles that are being lobbed into Israel right into our cities. And even American planes are in the air trying to knock down these drones that are on their way from Iran, that launch from Iran to Israel. So we’re deeply grateful for the support we have gotten from President Trump and also for him making clear Iran’s not going to get a nuclear weapon and Iran
    is not going to have an enrichment capability. And I think that’s a very important stance, and I think that stance will help us achieve the goals that we set out to achieve in this war. And the people of Israel are quite united.
    I just saw one of the minority party leftists, Lapid has endorsed basically everything your government is doing. I know for a fact that Benjamin
    Netanyahu is Churchillian in so many ways, his intellect, his heritage. But, you know, so are you, Ron Dermer, You’ve been by his side for a long time. He relies on you a great deal. You interact with the United States top officials constantly. And in this regard, I want to I want to ask you a question. There have been a lot of media reports. You said, look, we’re not separated at all, work together, a lot of leaks, a lot a lot of reports have asked the administration about this. They say these leaks are not true. They don’t know who’s leaking. But these leaks that attempt to divide Israel and the United States, you see these leaks, too, now? Yeah, absolutely. What did they say?
    One word to, you know, loose lips, think ships. I mean, the leaks, first of all, most of them are false, but they’re also dangerous. What I can tell you
    is I don’t believe the U.S. Israel relationship has ever been tighter.
    There’s ever been a stronger partnership between our two countries. And we’re very grateful for that. For all the people in the Trump administration, you know, whether it’s Vice President Vance or Secretary of State Marco Rubio, special envoy, with course. I mean, I. Speak to them multiple times, usually
    a day. And it’s just a tremendous part. And it’s hard for me to imagine a better partner as we’re confronting this enemy. You know, remember, Israel, even though people see and I guess are amazed by some of the things that
    we’ve done, whether it’s the beeper when we took out Nasrallah and how we’re fighting a seven front war. But Iran is a very big country with 10 million people. Iran is 100 million people, and Iran is probably 80 times the size of Israel. So Israel is a David, and Iran is a Goliath. And they’re they’re
    trying to hit us with these these missiles that are huge clubs. And, you
    know, we have more than slingshots, but basically we have precision weapons
    and we use our brains and precise weapons to fight back. And we are very grateful that in this fight, this Israeli David fighting this Iranian
    Goliath, that we have the greatest superpower in the world and the most powerful leader in the world, that’s American. President Trump backing us. I think that’s critically important. And I think in while we’re the ones doing the fight, there’s no question that the defensive support that you’re giving
    us is been so valuable to this to this effort. And they’re. I fight is is
    your fight. And ultimately our victory will be your victory because these
    guys, they hate America. They’re leading people, millions of people for decades, ever since it was born. This regime, older Americans will remember that their birth came with the taking of American hostages and holding them. What was it for 444 days taking over an American embassy and then over the years targeting Americans, whether it was U.S. Marines or was it American embassies and in Africa having the gall to try to blow up an American restaurant. And a lot of these killers that we took out on that first night. These are people who were supporting the effort to get all those IEDs into
    Iraq that maimed and murdered so many U.S. servicemen, all those people at Walter Reed who were being treated this this is the regime that was behind
    all of that. So when we systematically take these people out and we undermine the power of this regime by taking out their proxies, we’re not only strengthening ourselves, we’re strengthening America’s posture in the Middle East and around the world. And so I think that this partnership is critical
    for peace in the future and for security and stability. And I hope that after this war ends and it will end with an Israeli victory and I think an American victory, because our victory is yours, I hope then we’ll get back to the business that we had in the first Trump term of trying to bring more of our Arab neighbors into an alliance of peace. We had the Abraham Accords. But I think this can rapidly explain expand because Iran is the main source of terrorism, of chaos and carnage in this region. And when we clip their wings, we’re going to be in a different reality throughout the region. All right. Well, we want to wish you all the best. I can tell you the overwhelming vast majority of Americans support Israel. They oppose Iran. They don’t want Iran having nuclear weapons and they support the president of the United States in his support of the state of Israel, too. So, Ron Dermer, stay safe. My best
    to your family as to the prime minister on behalf of the American people.
    Well, it will. Thank you. And I know that I know, Mark, that there’s a battle going on in America for and I’ve been watching the president tweeting and saying, you know, what’s America first and who’s really supporting the president and not supporting the president? I hope all of your listeners understand one thing. These people in Iran, they’re not about America first. They’re about America dead and we’re taking them on. And I think in doing
    that and in fighting this battle, we’re going to help secure the future not only of Israel, but the future of America. I agree. God bless you. See you soon. I hope they care about you, too. Ron Dermer, who is fantastic human
    being above everything else, minister of strategic affairs for the Israeli government and for the prime minister of the state of Israel. We’ll be right back.

    Segment 4
    Ron Dermer is really a unique human being, let alone a public servant. He was born in the United States. His father was an American. His mother was an Israeli, an American Israeli. He was raised in the United States. He went
    back. His father died of a heart sudden heart attack, unexpected two weeks before his bar mitzvah in and around Miami. His mother returned to Israel. He went to Israel as well. And. He became a very important individual. There has been with Benjamin Netanyahu for a quarter of a century. He was before that with the attack on Sharansky, who you may recall was a prisoner behind the Soviet Union gulags. And as a result of Ronald Reagan pounding the hell out
    of the head of the Soviet Union, and I don’t mean militarily, just generally, many Russian Jews were allowed to leave, not enough for many. And Sharansky
    was one of the most important in terms of. The things he had said and written and so forth. And Dermer became very close with him, and they co-wrote a very important book. So Dreamers is a mix of many fantastic characteristics. He’s smart as hell. He’s an intellectual and a scholar. On the other hand, he’s a diplomat, but he’s a patriot and he’s a patriot for America and a patriot for Israel as a remarkable human being. Benjamin Netanyahu and his brother who
    was killed in Entebbe. They went to my high school, Cheltenham, Cheltenham Township High School, Cheltenham Township, right outside of Philadelphia.
    When I was 19 years old in law school, I ran for the school board in
    Cheltenham Township and I was elected there and sworn in when I was 20. At
    that time, the youngest school board member in the history of the
    Commonwealth of Pennsylvania and I certainly not board for I don’t know what
    it was three and a half years or so, but I went to that high school. And Benjamin Netanyahu preceded me by seven years. So the last time I was in Israel. At a friendly and brief meeting with him. You should imagine that, Mark. We both went to the same high school. Look where I am. And look where
    you are. I’m nowhere near where he is. But it is a remarkable thing. And by
    the way, just out of interest for some of you. We had a lot of very famous people who came of that high school. Athletes, poets, authors. Not too many criminals I can think of. But it’s quite a remarkable place. Now, unlike Chatsworth, Qatar. Nothing was handed to me. I worked for everything. I had everything. And so when I speak about the Forgotten man or I speak about the middle class, I speak about blue collar America. That’s who I know. That’s
    why I know that’s what my parents were. That’s the way it was. So we’re here
    to defend this country. We’re not going to defend Islamists or Marxists.
    We’re not going to defend terrorist regimes. We’re going to defend our troop troops. I stand with Donald Trump and real MAGA and we stand against fake
    MAGA, which is now attacking Donald Trump. So I want you to speak out. I want you to go on the Internet. I want you to defend the president. I want you to condemn these reprobates because that’s one of the battles we fight here at home. It’s about power. Like my new book says on power, it’s about power.
    I’ll be right back.

    On Monday’s Mark Levin Show, President Trump announced a ceasefire agreement between Israel and Iran, ending a 12-day war. What will it be about this agreement to ensure they don’t violate it? Iran should face unconditional surrender due to its weakened military and lack of support from allies like China, Russia, or Arab nations. Trump’s decisive military actions prevented Iran from acquiring nuclear weapons, which no other president, including Clinton, Obama, or Biden, was willing or able to accomplish. Without Trump’s intervention, Iran would have become a nuclear power, potentially arming
    groups like the Houthis and enabling terrorist sleeper cells in the U.S. to acquire dirty bombs. Also, Trump’s actions on Iran have ensured peace for a period. But there’s a group of individuals—Rep Marjorie Taylor Greene, Matt Gaetz, and others—who are undermining Trump and aligning with radical left ideologies, including anti-Israel sentiments. These figures, supported by liberal media, aim to sabotage Trump’s movement and the next election. Later, Marc Thiessen calls in to discuss a Reagan Institute poll showing that MAGA Republicans strongly support U.S. global leadership, rejecting isolationism. The poll indicates 90% of MAGA voters prioritize preventing Iran from
    obtaining nuclear weapons, aligning with Trump’s decision to join Israel’s strikes on Iran’s nuclear facilities. The claims of a splintering MAGA base over Trump’s Iran policy are exaggerated, as isolationist critics represent a small minority within the GOP. Finally, Lee Smith calls in and discusses how Trump’s political opponents, particularly within the Democratic Party and aligned institutions, have pursued strategies aimed at humbling America to counter his influence. These efforts stem from a belief that Trump’s “Make America Great Again” rhetoric and policies threaten their vision of a globalized, progressive world order.

    I want to read what President Trump just posted here, I assume this is accurate. Congratulations to everyone that has been fully agreed by and
    between Israel and Iran that there will be a complete and total cease fire in approximately 6 hours from now when Israel and Iran. Have wound down and completed their in-progress final missions for 12 hours, at which point the
    war will be considered ended. Officially, Iran will start the cease fire and upon the cross, our Israel will start the cease fire. And upon the 24th hour, an official end of the 12 day war will be saluted by the world. During each cease fire, the other side will remain peaceful and respectful on the assumption that everything works as it should, which it will. I would like to congratulate both countries, Israel and Iran, on having the stamina, courage and intelligence to end what should be called the 12 day war. This is a war that could have gone on for years and destroyed the entire Middle East. But
    it didn’t and never will. God bless Israel. God bless Iran. God bless the Middle East. God bless the United States of America and God bless the world. Donald J. Trump, President of the United States. This is what he’s just
    posted. So I’m reading it raw. Could be very interesting. Very interesting.
    You know, folks, we’re going to talk about what’s taken place here in 12 for
    12 days and over the weekend, our fantastic military commander, chief. Why we get to talk about this, because it’s very, very important. But it’s also important that we understand that there is a crazed bunch of truly sick
    people. Seek to steal the movement from Donald Trump and you, the 77 million people who voted for you. And the radical left media are promoting them and pushing them and telling us that are consistent and they’re principled when they’re not mocking them, calling them names and laughing at them. You see, they don’t want us to win the next election. They don’t want us to win the
    next election. So they they’re going to promote these people. There’s a guy, Kobe Hall at Media. I told you, he’s a coward. We wanted to have a chat with him based on a less sleazy thing he wrote, but he wouldn’t. Okay. So he’s telling us today, yeah, this Marjorie Taylor GREENE is bad as crazy, but
    she’s the most principled among MAGA. See what I mean? All these radical left sites and news organizations. It’s not just her. But you look at the
    background of these people and the things that they’ve said that no American was killed by Iran. That was their latest. Five. What light bulb comment? Few years ago, she basically denied the Holocaust and she had to apologize. This
    is a very sick woman. Not just another pretty face, I might add. And here I don’t stop. I don’t stop. We get this guy, Matt Gates. I didn’t know a lot about Matt Gaetz. Good debater. Was very good in these committees. Then I
    made the mistake of looking at that report that was released about this guy, Mr. Producer. He’s a certified pervert. It’s unbelievable. Now. I’m not going to post it. You can go do all your Google work all you want. Then you get a
    guy who calls his podcast The War Room, and calls everybody else a warmonger.
    I remember when he when he joined the conservative movement from Hollywood. Yes. A blunderbuss. Now his fantastic career. Is also all over the Internet
    for you to investigate yourselves if you care. I’m not only going to spend a few minutes on. Whether it’s charities. And is pleading of guilt. And he
    thinks that Fox. HANNITY Kayleigh MCENANY, who’s now taken leave to have baby girl and I, among others, should be investigated because we support Israel.
    So I’m publicly calling for his investigation based on his relationship with communist China. Go ahead. Look it up. You’d think he’d be a little bit more supportive of Donald Trump at a time like this, given the fact that Trump pardoned his ass. And it’s a big ass. But no. Then you have Qatar Olsson out there. You know what he did today, Mr. Producer? He praised Qatar. Praise Qatar. The Israelis have defeated the Iranian army, destroyed it, destroyed their air force, their navy destroyed the whole damn thing, took out all of their senior officials, military, all of them. They’re senior intelligence officials. They’re top nuclear scientists. We took out permanently. I hope
    the nuclear sites. For which we praise and support Donald Trump and what he’s done. While the people I just mentioned were trashing Donald Trump. At a time when he knows he deserved our support because they don’t have faith in him.
    Now they interview each other and they post each other’s interviews. And there’s really quite a small following, quite frankly. And the radical left media love it. They sit there, they aggregate, they put up hysterical
    headlines because they want their clicks and all the rest of it. We keep it real here. We’ll hear. Making sure the Islamo Nazi terrorist regime in Iran doesn’t have nuclear weapons was a priority. And the president of the United States took care of that. That’s a big deal. It is a huge deal. It’ll be remembered forever, as long as it holds. For all the lies about a regional
    war. It’s amazing. Virtually every Arab country today has denounced Iran because of the phony. The phony reputation saving, quote unquote, firing of missiles. That we, the United States, the Israelis, the Iranians and others agreed that they should do. Crazy in it. It’s amazing. None of this would be happening. But for the Israelis and Donald Trump, none of this would be happening. But for Netanyahu and Donald Trump, none of it. Now, these people
    I just mentioned. They have the same belief system. As Talib when it comes to these issues, the same belief system as Omar when it comes to these issues,
    the same belief system. It’s the most radical. Leftist Marxist Islamist elements in our country. The blame of America. First crap. The blame the Jews in Israel crown. And it Israel and Donald Trump and the greatest fighting
    force on the face of the earth. The United States military. Has insured, at least for a period of time, peace. By taking out those nuclear sites. Peace. Regardless of the people I just mentioned. What I call the. The Iran the Iran supporters. Regardless of the media that plays them. In order to undermine
    our president. And in hopes of destroying us in the next election. It’s funny when you look at who your allies and supporters are. For the reprobates I
    just mentioned. It’s the most radical elements in the Democrat Party and the most radical ideologues in the country. Not to mention the liberal media and their entrails like media. That’s the truth. They didn’t elect Donald Trump. Donald Trump elected Donald Trump. You elected Donald Trump. That’s the
    truth, too. So ever cease fire. I hate this word. Cease fire. I really do.
    The president of Haiti did a few days ago to. What’s needed now is this, in
    my humble opinion. Iran should be forced to sign. He surrender document, Unconditional surrender. They lost their nukes. They’ve lost their air force. They have no ground to air protection. China didn’t step in. Russia didn’t
    step in. Not a single Arab country stepped in. The Supreme Nazi is hanging
    and is hiding in a bunker much like Adolf Hitler did. Adolf Hitler wasn’t thrown a lifeline. He was thrown in a lifeline. He was going to be killed. So he committed suicide. I’m very much interested in seeing how this plays out.
    I really am. Because what does an agreement look like? Does that mean? The Supreme Nazi survived. Does that mean the regime survives? I guess so. If you understand the Islamist mindset. Most of the people who talk. Do not. The retiree. Have no idea about the Islamists mindset. The war room. You know, he actually reminds me of that guy in Deliverance. Who is that guy in
    Deliverance, baby? What was his name? Can you Google that while I’m talking
    to you, Mr. Producer? Okay, let’s look that up. That’s who he really reminds
    me of. Except this hair’s longer, you know, He looks like a hippie. But nonetheless. Nonetheless while he’s picking on. Kayleigh MCENANY is in that sweet. Who’s a sweetheart. Because he doesn’t like your opinion. Marjorie Taylor GREENE has to be one of the dumbest people to ever serve in the House
    of Representatives. The stupidity that comes out of that woman’s mouth is
    hard to imagine. The Iranians didn’t kill any Americans. Just stupid. Which
    is why they want to promote her or Qatar Olsen on a day like this, shouldn’t
    he be praising the president and the prime minister of Israel for what
    they’ve achieved? He praises Qatar. Hence his name, Qatar Olsson. Then we
    have Matt Gaetz. Who’s really. Destroyed his career, destroyed himself. But what to expect? No wonder he didn’t want that report to come out. This guy is officially certified. One of the biggest perverts, in my humble opinion. Just my opinion. I went back and looked. Holy mackerel. Wow. Just a very strange group. Great piece by Rich Lowry, National Review by this guy, Dave Smith. A comic. Check that out. So there, there. But here’s the thing. There are millions and millions of you. There are hundreds, if not thousands, of brilliant writers and commentators. Lay out the case for freedom and the constitution for our own country’s national security. For border security. I bring them to you often, whether it’s on this program, on television or on place. Rational people, not grifters. Not slogan year. Morons and worse.
    That’s what we do here. We don’t call our show The War Room. The war room. We don’t praise Qatar today. We praise the American military and our commander
    in chief and our allies, the prime minister of Israel and the Israeli
    military, a fantastic alliance that has achieved an enormous, enormous
    amount. In 12 days. You know, who knows this? President Trump. He knows this. Much more. I’ll be right back.

    Segment 2
    So we have a fire. The different elements is watching. J.D. Vance on with
    Brett Baer. It’s actually quite good, I thought and this was being discussed, too, the moment he came on television. Apparently, the president’s been there from many of these various. Mediators and the Israelis and so forth and so
    on. So I look forward to reading. Carefully. What it is. See, here’s my thinking. My just my personal opinion. I’ve said from day one, any agreement with this regime they will violate. So the crucial thing to me is what will
    it be about this agreement, whatever it is, to ensure that they don’t
    violate. And so that’ll be key. They don’t have an agreement yet. So if you have an opinion on what this agreement should do, now’s the time to voice it. Because there is no agreement, actually. But that said. The nuclear program
    has been destroyed. Their military has been destroyed. But they’re going to survive. I’m just curious if that’s okay with this audience. Just curious.
    The so-called supreme leader who’s a supreme Nazi. He lives. He’s survived.
    He lives, he said. I wonder what War Room thinks about this should be called appeasement room. As he blusters on and does what he does. We don’t care what Kathiresan thinks. We know what he thinks. But it will be very important to
    see to see what this is, because if there is an agreement, just a cease fire. But I very definitely want to know what is it? How is it going to be
    enforced? So in that respect, you’re back to square one. I’ll be right back.

    Segment 3
    It’s clear if Donald Trump was not president. Iran would have nuclear
    weapons. It’s that simple. The Democrats. Media. Isolationists. The American Lesters like green, like Bannon. Like guitar Olson. Like Gates. Yeah. What a Star Wars bar scene that is. That they have no strength, they have no pull, They have no numbers. They did everything they could to prevent him. From ordering our military to take out those sites. But he did it. He had faith in our military, had faith in his own principles. He understood there was no choice. You understand? There’s no choice. Massive majorities of you, the American people. One of those sites taken out. He did, with no president
    before him, was willing to do none. Clinton. Obama. And of course, Biden, who funded the enemy. Clinton refused to bomb the the nuclear site in North Korea in 1996. So 2006, they came out with nuclear weapons and now they have a nuclear weapon. Now they have 50 on the way to 90. So President Trump hadn’t done what he did. Despite these countervailing pressures, Iran would be a nuclear Iran. I have no doubt the Houthis would have a nuclear weapon. They talk about the sleeper cells in America. Well, those sleeper cells have been here for years. They didn’t just come here over the weekend. I have no doubt they would have tried to get a dirty bomb. Just think of all the
    possibilities, the ifs. I hear people say, including some of my friends in broadcast. Now let’s see what the sleeper cells do. Now let’s see what they
    do to our military sites. Now let’s see. They act like we don’t have
    experience with this country. They act like they’re just as stupid as
    Marjorie Taylor GREENE who said Iran has never killed an American. They’ve
    been killing and maiming and spreading terrorism. They don’t need a quote unquote, reaction to what took place in order to keep doing it. And they’re going to keep doing it. Look, whether it’s Iran, whether it’s Hamas, whether it’s Hezbollah, the Muslim Brotherhood, al Qaeda, ISIS, Islamic Jihad, and
    the list goes on and on and on. They’re not going to stop. They’re not going
    to stop. Because they believe their faith, as perverse as their approach to their faith, is, is to kill us. That that’s what God’s mandate is. So they
    kill Muslims who don’t agree with them. They kill Jews and Christians. They don’t care. Atheists, gay people they particularly hate. They hate us.
    America. And they’re not going to stop. Even if Iran were wiped off the face
    of the earth, they’re not going to stop. I’m sorry to pour reality on us, but they’re not. Let me tell you what’s not going to happen to prove my point.
    With terrorists, working groups, local, state, federal, law enforcement. They’re not going away. TSA at the airports. It’s not going away. Terrorist units within virtually every metropolitan police department, certainly every federal law enforcement entity. They’re not going away. The fence around the White House isn’t going away. The people approved glass When the president speaks, that’s not going away. It’s not going away. Of course, we have home grown nut jobs. Well, we also have terrorist. They’re not going away. It’s very, very important to understand this. You can only do what you can do.
    Iran is was a still is a horrendous danger. They’re plotting, the communist Chinese are plotting North Korea’s plotting and so many others. They’re not going to back down. North Korea is going to build more nukes. China is going
    to build continue to build up its military as it eyeballs Taiwan islands offshore Japan, Philippines and beyond. And what the hell. They’re on both sides of the Panama Canal. That’s not a mistake. They’re militarizing the Arctic Circle. That’s not a mistake. They’re bases in the middle of the Pacific, including in Spain, where my great uncle fought. That’s not a
    mistake. Their base, a base on the west coast of Africa, facing our coast. That’s not a mistake. These are dangerous, dangerous, dangerous entities so
    we can go round with the modern day peaceniks, even though some of them are
    fat and slovenly. Even though some of them pretend to be ultra patriotic,
    even though they pretend to support our troops when they undermine our troops in a time of battle like this. At the same voices, the same mindset. And we know this because of Talib and Omar and and Bernie Sanders. With whom they reunited. With whom they reunited. And so this is a forever fight within the United States if we want to be safe and free, if you want your children and grandchildren to be the like. This enemy is not going away. One day it’s
    Iran, it’s going to be another country and so forth and so on. What do you
    want to do? Warmonger. What do you mean, What do I want to do? I don’t want
    to go to war with every country. And we’re not. It’s impossible. Would also
    be stupid. I told you, foreign policy is based on prudence, not ideology. Prudence, not ideology. Each case has to be taken with its facts.
    Intelligence history. Who’s in charge? There’s a whole long list of things
    that need to be taken into consideration. Far above my pay grade. And that’s why we have the great military that we do. They help us figure these things out. That set. All these protections we have in place in our homeland.
    Whatever this ceasefire is or whatever a deal is made, they’re not going to
    go away. Are they? Well, why not? Because the enemy is the enemy. They’re not going away. Islamists, Nazi terrorists are not going away. If they can take down. They can take down another building with the thousand Americans in it. They’re going to do it. If they can assassinate our president, they’re going
    to do it. Or at least try. They can slaughter people in a mall or plant
    bombs. I shoot people in the back when they’re leaving an event. I burned people alive who are protesting. They’re going to do it. They’re going to do it. And it’s not because of what happened in Iran. Everything I just
    mentioned to you happened before what took place over this weekend. The
    sleeper cells have been here. The assassination attempt on our president took place. These terrorist front groups are in our country. Not because the Israelis destroyed the Iranian military, not because our military destroyed their nuclear sites. They’re here. And it’s going to be more of them. They
    have children and grandchildren. We have federal judges who keep releasing them. They’re here. They’re roaming the streets. They’re destroying our schools. They’re creating a whole new mindset in this country. Which is embraced by these fake MAGA guys, which is embraced by the Democrat Party, which is embraced by much of the media. This is why we must continue to speak out. We must be resolute. Ignore the slogans and the bumper sticker
    statements about warmongers and neocons and who’s more principled than the next? None of that matters. None of it. This is a fake. Cabal. This is a fake media and a very, very dangerous Democrat Party. Very dangerous. You have the Arab countries in the Middle East who have united against Iran tonight
    because they were never supporters of Iran except for Qatar, who Qatar Olsen has praised. But even Qatar got its dander up, if you will. This thing about Iran and the shooting of the missiles. I mean, the president all but said the whole thing was. Was playacting. They had nothing. They were shot out of the sky. The Qataris got a heads up. The United States got a heads up. And apparently the Israelis got a heads up. So they get the save face. This is a regime. Regime. That is likely now to remain in place unless the Iranian
    people rise up, which is less likely. I think at this point. Less likely at this point. That’s my take on it. There are people who will try and twist it. An attack at any time. You want to know what I say, You listen. If you can’t listen live, you go to our website. Mark Levin show dot com, we keep four
    years worth of archives there? Four years. I’ll be right back.

    Segment 4
    And again, I want to repeat, it’s clear that if President Trump is not president, can you imagine, Kamala Harris? The Democrats are very upset that our president and our military have succeeded spectacularly. Even calling for impeachment. I don’t know who’s sicker. The fake MAGA cabal or the Democrats and their media. And the Democrats, the media and the isolationists did everything they could to prevent prevent the president from ordering our
    heroic military to take out those sites. But he did. They’ve done everything possible to smear and libel him and to smear and libel his partner and
    friend, the prime minister of Israel, Benjamin Netanyahu, and their military. Which effectively defeated the Iranian military in 48 hours and helped lay a path. Help lay a path as the Joint Chiefs. Four star general pointed out.
    They help us with our bombers to take out those sites. He did with no
    president did before. The entire free world should enthusiastically and
    openly thank the president. The isolationists should apologize. They should apologize, but they won’t. They’re too stupid. And they’re grifters. Europe
    can now come out of the closet. The Arab countries can now stop their war of words against Israel while praying the American Israeli alliance succeeded.
    We can all sleep a little easier. President Trump is a historic and iconic figure. You don’t have to agree with everything he says or does. We’ve talked about this before. So if you disagree with something, that’s perfectly fine. But if your goal is to undermine him, to smear him, to cripple him, to stab
    him in the back, that’s quite a different thing. This is why that little
    cabal will be forever remembered. As detestable Lilliputians. Forever remembered. We’ll see what the cease fire results in. We’ll talk about it on this program. We’ll see if there’s some kind of deal. I’d be very curious to see what that looks like, but who knows? Who knows? What we have so far is
    that within 24 hours, fighting will stop. Should be very interesting. Whether the regime, Islam or Nazi regime in Iran. If it stops, let’s proxy stop the Houthis. Let’s proxy. Stop Hezbollah. Let’s proxy. Stop Hamas. Be very interesting. Remember we had a deal with the Houthis that they couldn’t shoot at our planes anymore and our ships. Remember that, Mr. Producer? But it excluded Israel. That wasn’t so good. And so we’ll be here to examine it as questions about it. And. And hopefully everywhere possible. Support all the efforts that are taken. But again, not to sabotage. That’s a different that’s
    a completely different issue. This is my problem with the left, the
    Democrats, the media and the isolationists. They’re saboteurs. What you remember this day? They told you that there would be a regional war. They
    lied. They told you there would be World War Three. They lied. That’s what
    they told you. And now they’ll tell you that any time we’re hit by
    terrorists, doesn’t matter who or where. That’s a result of what President Trump in Israel did. They’re liars. We were hit by terrorists before, a lot
    of them. Think about 911, for God’s sakes. Long time before this again we’re
    up against. An enemy that. It does not share our values. That does not have
    our mindset. Which is why we will continue to have our defenses in place militarily. Law enforcement. The border must remain secured. And it will
    remain secured under this president. All right, let me see here. Mr. Produce, You just sent me something. Let me do this. By the way, can I say one other thing? I’m so proud of you folks in this audience. I really am. You don’t
    live on the Internet. Thank God you don’t live in the comments sections,
    which I really read. You real Americans, You have a life to lead. You follow the law, you work hard and you pay your taxes and you expect your government
    to defend you and protection. That’s not. Irrational. That’s what the government is supposed to do, and that’s what it just did. That’s what it
    just did. We all know that. That the regime could not have a nuclear weapon. But finally, we have somebody who put his foot down. The problem is we
    actually had people in our country. We actually had people in our country who were. We’re opposed to stopping them. Opposed to stopping. We’ll never forget them. Nor will I relent. We will continue to expose them. Whether they be in the Democrat Party, the media, or whether they be fake mag or anybody else.
    We got a lot going on, folks. Couple of great guests. Stick with us. I know you’re going to want to. We’ll be right back.
