On Tuesday's Mark Levin Show, Sen Lindsey Graham calls in and gives us an update on his South Carolina primary election today. Graham is a reliable President Trump ally, who will advance the agenda, including properly concluding the Iran conflict, protecting Israel, and pursuing broader Middle East peace. Graham's opponent is heavily funded and endorsed by Marjorie Taylor Greene and Rep Thomas Massie, who lack any MAGA credentials; they are more aligned with the hard left. Also, our military, on the orders of Trump, hammered Iranian positions in response to the Iranian regime shooting down one of our helicopters. How much more delay and attack we will tolerate from this enemy? This is exactly what Israel and Benjamin Netanyahu did the other night when the same enemy fired 11 ballistic missiles at its civilian populations. The U.S. and Israel should both decisively beat the hell out of Iran militarily to end ongoing delays and attacks by Iran or Hezbollah that disrupt deals. Meanwhile, MTG and Thomas Massie continue to question Israel's alliance and push debunked spying claims and the USS Liberty issue. They are fueling anti-Semitism while promoting Putin and terrorist-linked Arab regimes. Later, Southern Poverty Law Center has been exposed as one of the most corrupt, phony civil liberty organizations. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

June 6, 2026 4pm; While Donald Trump appeared to expect that the kind of fawning he gets from his cabinet members would somehow extend to 20,000 New York Knicks fans, he was instead met with an onslaught of booing, a reflection of his approval ratings.

Following the latest South Carolina primary results, I analyze how establishment Republicans, special interests, corporate money, and Trump's endorsements continue to crush grassroots conservative candidates across America. From South Carolina to South Dakota, North Dakota to Florida, conservatives are losing ground despite overwhelming voter support for issues like immigration enforcement, medical freedom, anti-globalism, privacy rights, food sovereignty, and opposition to Big Tech. Why do Republican voters support conservative policies but continue electing establishment politicians? Why do Freedom Caucus candidates struggle against the GOP machine? I examine the failures of the current GOP model, the rise of independent political movements, lessons from grassroots revolts around the world, and why it's time to build an alternative to the Republican establishment.

This is a free preview of a paid episode. To hear more, visit www.politix.fmThe results from California are (mostly? almost completely?) in. They are mixed, and extremely consistent with pre-election polling. Naturally, Republicans are subjecting the country to a blizzard of lies. In this episode, Matt and Brian discuss:* The results, and the merits of the California election system, which maximizes ballot access, but at the expense of quick ballot counting.* What should California Democrats, and the national party, do about the scourge of GOP election lies?* Would Democrats really have been better off if they'd managed to lock Steve Hilton out of the governor's race, like they locked Spencer Pratt out of the LA mayor's race?Then, how do you solve a problem like Graham Platner? How do you catch an oyster, and snarf it down? How embellished is his self-depiction as a blue-collar outsider? How consistent is a clear, chronological recitation of his checkered past with his redemption story? Are we even anywhere near the point where it would make sense for Democratic voters in Maine to stay home or vote for Susan Collins, rather than Vote Blue No Matter Who as a harm-reduction strategy? The answer to the last question is “no,” but the answers to the rest are available in full to paid subscribers—just upgrade your subscription and pipe full episodes directly to your favorite podcast app via your own private feed.Further reading:* Matt's 17 thoughts about Graham Platner, from before the latest developments. * Brian argues California Dems should streamline their election process and simultaneously disqualify proven election liars from ballots in the state. * Andrew Weissmann's Liar's Kingdom.* Brian's 2017 piece on the pitfall of embracing “believe all women” as a political standard (tl;dr, some women are committed Trump loyalists with MAGA ethics).
Join Jim and Greg for the Wednesday 3 Martini Lunch as they review House Republicans ripping the Southern Poverty Law Center's (SPLC) partisan selection of hate groups, Social Security running dry by 2032, several recent developments in the Iran war, and the latest midterm election primary results. First, Jim and Greg blast the SPLC for labeling TPUSA a hate group while its list of 1,500 "hate groups" did not include a single Islamist organization. Combined with ongoing allegations of financing the very groups they claim to oppose, Jim says the SPLC has lost all credibility.Next, they cover the looming threat of the Social Security trust fund running dry by 2032. Despite a national debt of $39 trillion, cuts to entitlements remain deeply unpopular with voters, preventing any political solution. But soon politicians will not have a choice.Then, Jim and Greg recap several developments in the Iran war, including Iranian missile strikes, the downing of an American attack helicopter, and the shifting realities of war. Jim also offers his take on the proliferation of drones in modern militaries.Finally, they recap the recent primary election results in South Carolina, Maine, and California.Please visit our great sponsors: Noble GoldDownload the free investor kit.

In our political climate, it is always nice to have a bit of authentic bipartisanship. The Marshall plan to rebuild Europe following World War 2, the Interstate Highway System under President Eisenhower, and the Apollo Program are all examples of both political parties coming together for a common goal. The first Trump Administration saw another of these moments in the passage of the Formerly Incarcerated Reenter Society Transformed Safely Transitioning Every Person Act or First Step Act in 2018. The bill was designed to reform federal prison policy and reduce the rates of recidivism, meaning criminals returning to incarceration. It had supporters from all over the political spectrum, and in its seven years of life, has indeed lowered recidivism, extended credits to prisoners for good behavior, and allowed some elderly or sick prisoners to return home. Last week, the Supreme Court handed down decisions on three decisions having to do with criminal justice, two of them having to do with the First Step Act. Here to explain, and to talk about what he's watching for from the land's highest court this term, is Cully Stimson, Senior Legal Fellow here at the Heritage Foundation. --- Email us with thoughts, questions, or suggestions: HeritageExplains@heritage.org ---Follow Cully Stimson on X: https://x.com/cullystimson

Trend forecaster Gerald Celente discusses the decline of the United States, arguing that corporate and government interests have consolidated control over the media and banking sectors, effectively dismantling the American middle class. The conversation highlights the dangers of a burgeoning AI surveillance state and the economic consequences of persistent military conflicts involving figures like Trump and Netanyahu. Celente posits that China is surpassing the West by prioritizing business over war, while younger generations face a future of economic feudalism. Ultimately, Gerald warns of the loss of individual privacy and the potential for nuclear escalation in the Middle East. To navigate these turbulent times, Celente encourages people to focus on physical and spiritual health while advocating for a movement of “occupying” peace.

Donald Trump was roundly booed in New York City outside of Madison Square Garden on his way to attend Game 3 of the NBA Finals between the New York Knicks and the San Antonio Spurs. Trump was booed again once he was spotted inside the venue. Rachel Maddow shares footage of the booing and remarks on the way Trump has arranged to benefit financially from his other sports preoccupation, a UFC fight on the White House grounds. Rachel Maddow outlines Donald Trump's desperation tactics to delegitimize elections in California, trying to convince his followers that a grand conspiracy is responsible for his electoral failures in that state and not the clear, obvious explanation that California just has more Democratic voters. Jacob Soboroff, host of Connect on MS NOW, reports live from the L.A. County Ballot Processing Center to show exactly how the California voting process works, contrary to the misinformation of Donald Trump and his supporting media. Rachel Maddow lists example after example of people or organizations giving large sums of money to Donald Trump's interests and subsequently receiving some favorable treatment from Trump. The UFC fight on the White House lawn stands out as one of the more egregious examples, with Trump essentially giving himself a birthday present from the American people. Brendan Ballou, founder of the Public Integrity Project, talks with Rachel about his lawsuit to stop Trump's UFC event. Rep. Joyce Beatty talks with Rachel Maddow about her role in defending the John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts from Donald Trump's destructive force. Want more of Rachel?

California counts votes very slowly, maybe slower than any other state. This is normal for California, but President Trump and some other Republican leaders are claiming, without evidence, that a delay in getting election results is evidence of fraud. We discuss why California is so slow to count votes and what Trump's claims could mean for the November midterm elections.

On Monday's Mark Levin Show, despite recent close military cooperation with Israel, President Trump's want for an Iran deal has led to significant restrictions on Israel and Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. These include limiting it to a defensive war against thousands of Hezbollah missiles and drones, barring action near Beirut, and pulling back Israeli forces after responses. The U.S. would not tolerate such threats itself. Since 1948, Israel has not been free to destroy its enemies. And they've paid a price for it every time. Iran is lucky Israel is not alone, or the regime would be wiped out. Also, Gov Gavin Newsom has legalized election fraud in California by mailing ballots to every residence (regardless of moves), eliminating voter ID requirements, allowing mail-in ballots to be postmarked up to seven days after Election Day, and enabling unlimited third-party voter harvesting of ballots. These measures allow votes to be cast or delivered after initial results are known, making fraud difficult to detect or prosecute since the barriers against it have been removed by law. This sustains a one-party Democratic state. Later, Graham Platner is as a former Nazi who is now an admitted communist, has manhandled women, cheated on his wife multiple times, engaged in perverse behavior in public bathrooms, and spent years on the Kik site associated with pedophiles. Yet, Democrats dismiss these issues, urging voters to ignore them in favor of his stances on Medicare for all, destroying ICE, and defunding law enforcement. The Democrat Party prioritizes power over character. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

President Donald Trump officially nominated Todd Blanche to serve as Attorney General. After firing Pam Bondi back in April, Trump went with his former defense attorney to lead more than 10,000 attorneys. And it seems pretty clear why: Trump wants someone to do exactly what he wants.
