This week on the Mark Levin Show, Mark emphasized that books endure far beyond radio, podcasts, or TV. While he's often discussed liberty, unalienable rights, and tyranny, he's only touched on power indirectly. Now, he's completed his latest book, On Power. This book is different than any other book Mark has written. On Power is an analysis of how power shapes history. Power is more than a word; it determines whether you are free or not. It's a subject all of us deal with every day. It's a matter that can be discussed psychologically, ideologically, and philosophically. Also, in On Power, there's a stark contrast between America's founding, rooted in a blend of faith and Enlightenment ideals, and the centralized control sought by political Islam, as highlighted by Dr. Zuhdi Jasser, a Muslim reformist. Jasser argues that Islamism, unlike the Judeo-Christian principles shaping America's Constitution, rejects individual liberty and enforces a monolithic faith, often tied to anti-Israel and anti-Semitic agendas, as seen in groups like the Muslim Brotherhood. On Power examines the concept of power, its manipulation by politicians, media, and ideologues, and its impact on individuals and society. It aims to provoke a deeper understanding and dialogue about power's application, hoping to serve as a source for liberty against tyranny. Also, Saudi Arabia played a significant role on the 9/11 slaughter of Americans. Their Crown Prince didn't even apologize once yesterday for what they did to us, and the 9/11 families are probably reeling from this. And Qatar protected the leader of the 9/11 attack from the FBI, before he was able to launch his war on America that killed our people. The Supreme Court addressed a case involving President Trump's executive order to end birthright citizenship. These national injunctions represent an unconstitutional overreach by federal district courts, lacking a historical or constitutional basis, and justices like Ketanji Brown Jackson are promoting a "deconstitutionalization" of government by justifying such injunctions as a means to force quick Supreme Court review.

On Thursday's Mark Levin Show, the Supreme Court addressed a case involving President Trump's executive order to end birthright citizenship. These national injunctions represent an unconstitutional overreach by federal district courts, lacking a historical or constitutional basis, and justices like Ketanji Brown Jackson are promoting a "deconstitutionalization" of government by justifying such injunctions as a means to force quick Supreme Court review.  The judiciary's actions, particularly from activist judges, are a dangerous expansion of power that undermines the Constitution and executive authority, especially in critical areas like national security. The 14th Amendment was solely intended to grant citizenship to children of former slaves, not to children of foreigners, and that the current practice of birthright citizenship is a constitutional fiction unsupported by historical evidence.  This case is fundamentally about power—specifically, who has the authority to make critical decisions. Activist federal district judges, backed by justices like Jackson and Amy Coney Barrett, are wielding negative power to overturn the last election and undermine the Constitution by endorsing these injunctions. Prediction: the Court, lacking courage, will likely uphold the status quo, citing long-standing executive branch practice and the potential burden on future children born in the U.S., thus perpetuating a misinterpretation of the Constitution that threatens American liberty. Later, Iran refuses to halt its centrifuge operations, which, if not destroyed, preserves its nuclear bomb program. Iran must never get a nuclear weapon. Over 200 Republicans agree and have called on President Trump to dismantle Iran's uranium enrichment capabilities. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

Supreme Court looking into birthright citizenship. This might not be ruled on until June, which is gonna be here before you know it exactly. But all of these Democrats, they're if you wanna find out what a constitutional amendment really means, the best way to do that is go and look at the at what the people that wrote it said about it. In this case, it's senator Jacob Howard. He was one of the people that authored the fourteenth amendment back in 1866. And this is one of those topics that everybody on the left that they love, oh, we go we're gonna change hundreds of years of law and blah blah blah blah blah. But we're not. What has actually happened was the Democrats have used the fourteenth amendment incorrectly for this amount of time. When you go back and you ex look exactly what Jacob Howard said about the fourteenth amendment, I don't think he stuttered on this thing. Not at all. Let's go right now to Deese, Kalen. He is with the, Washington Examiner. Deese Kalen Deese, Kalen, how are you? Hi. Thanks for having me on. Great to be with you. Alright. So all of this really goes back to senator Jacob Howard, one of the authors of the fourteenth amendment. What do you think the Supreme Court really wants to hear about during these arguments? So the Supreme Court today was very much interested in hearing more about the arguments of bringing, more of a, regulation to nationwide injunctions rather than the fourteenth amendment itself. Mhmm. And I think that that was sort of the issue today is that it was a very double barreled, court case. There was that temptation to talk about the origins of the fourteenth amendment and whether it confers the right to birthright citizenship. But at the same time, that wasn't really the task at hand. And I think that that was something that made, for more confusion as to what the justices are ultimately gonna decide with this case whenever they issue a ruling perhaps in the next couple of weeks. And I think that from what we gathered today, there was definitely more, I would say, Democratic appointed justices that were interested in talking about the actual birthright, executive order that president Trump has put in place. And and and if and if you're listening to their words intently enough, then you might come away from it thinking, well, this executive order seems to maybe have a pretty steep chance of passing their muster. But I would also put the caveat where the Republican appointed justices were not really entertaining any parts of the merits of that executive order. So it kind of created a, an unfair, you know, balance where it seemed like there was more negative attention going toward the executive order whenever that wasn't even the issue that they had to deal with before them. Now I know Ketanji Brown Jackson. She said was she was in favor of these lower courts issuing their orders because that way, the administration would have to go to the Supreme Court quicker. Yeah. It seemed like that that was sort of the idea that the Supreme Court could handle this, in the way that that from from her perspective that the Supreme Court could continue to handle these cases in the way that things are going. But, obviously, we saw that with this case, it became a special oral argument session, in the May, which you know, are they going to do that for every single controversial, you know, alleged controversial executive order that is going to, you know, get stalled by a lower court judge? I mean, the fact of the matter is is that one of the things that was brought up and, rightfully noted is that, you know, nationwide injunctions really weren't popularized until the nineteen sixties, the 1963 case at the DC, circuit court. So I think that, you know, we've seen a steady pattern even in administrations before Trump where lower court judges have progressively begun to, you know, take, you know, stiff aim at the powers of, of of executive authority. And so the justices are now trying to toi ...

In this case, the court considered this issue: Did the ATF exceed its statutory authority in promulgating its Final Rule purporting to regulate so-called “ghost guns”?The case was decided on March 26, 2025.The Supreme Court held that the Gun Control Act of 1968 authorizes the ATF to regulate weapon parts kits and unfinished frames or receivers that can be readily converted into functional firearms. Justice Neil Gorsuch authored the 7-2 majority opinion of the Court.  Weapon parts kits qualify as “weapons” under the statute when they contain all necessary components to build a gun and their intended function is clear. Everyday language permits describing incomplete objects by their intended use, just as a disassembled rifle remains a “weapon.” The statute reinforces this understanding by treating starter guns as firearms even though they require modification. A kit like Polymer80's “Buy Build Shoot,” which can be assembled in about 20 minutes using common tools, meets the law's definition because it can be “readily converted” into a functioning firearm, just as a blocked-barrel starter gun qualifies when easily modified for live fire. While not all kits may fall under this definition, the statute clearly covers at least some, making a facial challenge to the rule invalid.  The definition of “frame or receiver” also includes partially complete versions that can be finished quickly with standard tools. Ordinary language and the statute's serialization requirements support this reading, as identification numbers are required on unfinished frames and receivers. Law enforcement has long treated such components as regulated firearms, and even the challengers conceded that some unfinished frames fall within the law's scope. While some objects may be too incomplete to qualify, the statute reaches at least those requiring only minimal work, making ATF's rule facially consistent with the law. Concerns about unintended consequences under the National Firearms Act are misplaced, as the government disavowed any authority to classify AR-15 receivers as machine guns, and the doctrines of lenity and constitutional avoidance do not apply where the statute's meaning is clear.Justices Sonia Sotomayor, Brett Kavanaugh, and Ketanji Brown Jackson each joined the majority opinion and also wrote separate concurring opinions.Justices Clarence Thomas and Samuel Alito each authored dissenting opinions.The opinion is presented here in its entirety, but with citations omitted.

In this case, the court considered this issue: Does the Clean Water Act allow the Environmental Protection Agency (or an authorized state) to impose generic prohibitions in National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System permits that subject permit-holders to enforcement for violating water quality standards without identifying specific limits to which their discharges must conform?The case was decided on March 4, 2025.The Supreme Court held that the Clean Water Act does not authorize the EPA to include “end-result” provisions in wastewater discharge permits. Justice Samuel Alito authored the 5-4 majority opinion of the Court.First, while rejecting San Francisco's broader argument that all limitations must be “effluent limitations,” the Court focused on §1311(b)(1)(C)'s authorization of “any more stringent limitation” necessary to meet water quality standards. The terms “limitation,” “implement,” and “meet” in this provision require the EPA to specify concrete actions permittees must follow, not merely mandate end results without guidance. A proper “limitation” is a “restriction imposed from without,” not a directive that forces permittees to determine compliance measures themselves.Second, Congress deliberately abandoned the pre-1972 backward-looking approach that had directly penalized polluters for water quality violations. The CWA's “permit shield” provision, which protects compliant permittees from penalties, would be undermined if end-result requirements could expose permittees to massive penalties despite following all specified steps. Additionally, the EPA's interpretation offered no solution for fairly allocating responsibility among multiple dischargers affecting the same body of water. Determining necessary compliance steps is the EPA's responsibility, and Congress has provided the agency with sufficient tools to make these determinations without resorting to end-result requirements.Justice Amy Coney Barrett authored a dissenting opinion, in which Justices Sonia Sotomayor, Elena Kagan, and Ketanji Brown Jackson joined.The opinion is presented here in its entirety, but with citations omitted.

In today's episode, we go over some of Trump's executive actions since taking office, including his proclamation that there are only two genders, abolition of DEI in the federal government, and pardoning of more than 20 pro-life activists who were targeted by Biden's Department of Justice under the FACE Act. Also, Vice President Vance spoke at March for Life in Washington, D.C., and said that he wants more babies in America. Of course, the propaganda surrounding Trump's new immigration policies is already in full swing, and Vance set the record straight regarding the lack of proper vetting of these illegal immigrants. That didn't stop Selena Gomez from attempting to leverage toxic empathy against well-meaning conservatives by crying on Instagram, though.

The "Sound of Ideas" is sharing some of their favorite segments from 2024, and among those were conversations with Ketanji Brown Jackson, Amy Tan, and a discussion about NPR's "Books We Love."

[SEGMENT 2-1] From Ruin to Renewal 1 Where are the Trump naysayers? I know many still exist, though most have been silenced. This includes RINOs who aided Democrats in plotting the demise of Trump and MAGA. I spoke of the NeverTrumpers recently. They now want back on the wagon, as they continue to plot against President Trump and his agenda. Still, many of them have been silenced, as they watch the difference between competence and failure. Look at what the Left have learned about Biden over the past year. And what of all the reveals to come? How could you possibly have supported this idiot and his agenda. While many on the Left continue with their muscle-memory to oppose Trump, they now catch themselves, course-correct, and rethink their knee-jerk lunacy. Take for example all the outspoken entertainers and Hollyweirdos. For the most part, they have kept a sock in their pie holes as it relates to Trump. It's difficult to criticize the man when you have Biden to whom you can compare him. Also, we know that most of these Tinseltown twits virtual-signal publicly while privately supporting Trump's policies. Even they look at the hard-core idiots like DeNiro and Stephen King as too far gone. Many of these pansy-asses exist, awaiting the moment they can proclaim that they never supported Biden, Kamala, or the Democrats. Trump will be the new fashion for 2025, as the closet-MAGA fakes simmer. As soon as Trump does something “Trumpian”, they will pretend they've been down with Trump since circa 2016. “We had his back!” And Trump will have many opportunities. He could end Biden's proxy war with Russia. He's already making moves on the Chinese with trade and the Panama Canal. And in the words of The Carpenters, “We've Only Just Begun”.     I saw a stat that read: From 2021-24, approximately 6% of new jobs added by S&P 100 companies went to white males  [SEGMENT 2-2] From Ruin to Renewal 2   What's your plan to make your life better next year? Let's begin there, because without that you can't help others. If you haven't thought about it, and put it on paper with ACTION ITEMS, please do so. Help yourself FIRST. Then do that thing that is required for real happiness: help others. Make a plan for that. It takes a LOT less than you think. A phone call, a note in the mail, and occasionally financial help. But don't rely on the money aspect first. It's usually just letting people you love know that you're thinking about them. You're all special. But in 2025 I challenge you to be better. Not because we are measuring, because the measurement is in how YOU feel. I'm not judging. But I know God has given you much. Share it.     In a time of seismic shifts and reckonings, Americans stand at the precipice of profound change. Looking back at what we leave behind, we see a trail of political deceit, cultural absurdity, and institutional failures that have scarred the nation's history. But alongside this retrospective, there are memories we refuse to let fade—hard lessons and pivotal moments that underscore the resilience of truth. And on the horizon, a brighter future glimmers, with opportunities to rebuild on the foundation of accountability and common sense. Leaving the Past in the Dust  [SEGMENT 2-3] From Ruin to Renewal 3   Barack Obama's legacy is finally unraveling. Once hailed as a transformative figure, his impact now reveals cracks in the facade. From economic stagnation to divisive rhetoric, Obama's tenure ultimately set the stage for his handpicked successor, Joe Biden, who amplified the damage. Biden's presidency—a product of the political maneuvering orchestrated by Obama—exemplifies the erosion of American leadership. Together, they'll be remembered as the "Dynamic Duo Dingbats," emblematic of what went wrong. The Clintons, too, have been relegated to history's dustbin. Their attempt to align their name with families like the Rockefellers or the Kennedys faltered under the weight of corruption and scandal. Hillary's loss to Trump was the final nail in the coffin for Clintonism, a political dynasty undone by its hubris. Gone, too, is the outdated notion that Trump can't lead Republicans to victory. The old-guard Republicanism—rooted in compromise and tepid policy—has been supplanted by a new era of bold, unapologetic conservatism. MAGA has meaning, and unlike the Tea Party movement, MAGA has staying power. Americans have also turned their backs on the once-trustworthy media, preferring MAGA influencers for their truth. Years of lies and selective reporting have shattered any credibility these institutions once held. Few people believe the NY Times, WaPo, CNN, and the like. The numbers prove it and Van Jones said it recently [X] SB – Van Jones on media     "Belief in the science," as weaponized by Leftists, has similarly crumbled. From gender ideology to the mishandling of COVID-19, the so-called experts—whether in the FDA, NIH, or DOJ—have proven untrustworthy. Their failures are etched into the collective memory of a populace betrayed by those they were told to trust. Likewise, Leftist platitudes such as "saving democracy" and "for the greater good" have lost all meaning, exposed as cynical tools to silence dissent.     Perhaps most importantly, the tide is turning against the Left's normalization of the sexualization of children and the creeping acceptance of pedophilia. Criminals in government and culture will find their time is up as the public demands accountability. Lessons We Must Remember Julian Assange's plight stands as a stark reminder of what happens to those who challenge the status quo. His detention stifled stories that could have unveiled further corruption, particularly surrounding the Biden family. Similarly, the Left's denial of Biden's incompetence and corruption remains a damning testament to media complicity. How is it that the Bidens managed to dodge scrutiny while seemingly laundering half of Beijing's treasury? The Biden crime family's antics could fill a Netflix series—and probably should. As you consider what Assange might have accomplished if not tethered to the Ecuadorian embassy, remember all that our media didn't do. Meanwhile, the DOJ's relentless targeting of Trump, aided by state-level cronies in New York and Georgia, underscores the weaponization of the justice system. Their lawfare campaign has been nothing short of historic—an epic quest to find something, anything, to pin on Trump. Yet every grand charge against him has collapsed like a Jenga tower at a kid's birthday party. It's almost comical to watch prosecutors argue, “This time, we've got him!” only for Trump to moonwalk out of the courtroom. And then there's Trump himself, the ultimate troll. Who else could turn working at McDonald's into a political flex? While Leftists mocked him flipping burgers, Trump spun it as a symbol of his connection to the average American. Let's not forget his sanitation stint—cleaning up the political trash Leftists left behind—a metaphor so on point it deserves an Emmy. Every one of Trump's antics serves a purpose: to troll, to entertain, and most importantly, to expose the absurdity of his detractors. Speaking of absurdity, remember when Ketanji Brown Jackson couldn't define a woman during her confirmation hearings? That moment alone should be preserved in the Smithsonian as a cultural artifact of wokeism's peak. Meanwhile, Biden's record-setting pardons—37 criminals off death row and counting—have set a new standard for tone-deaf governance. By the time he's done, Biden's pardon list might include the guy who stole your lunch at work. And let's not forget Hollywood's Diddy scandal and the still-unreleased Epstein list. These dark secrets promise to unravel networks of power and corruption, implicating everyone from studio execs to politicians. Every day that list stays hidden is another day the internet's conspiracy theorists sharpen their memes. [SEGMENT 2-4] From Ruin to Renewal 4 Jimmy Carter died over the weekend. I would never celebrate a person's death, but I have to say I'm not unhappy that he's gone. Democrats milked that man for decades, and he was one of the worst presidents in history. Education Department was started by him. The Department of Energy. Who can forget the hostage crisis, and how he allowed Muslim fundamentalists to start terrorizing the world? I know he built a few poor people some houses, but it doesn't undo all the damage he did as president. Carter was the first president Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-kevin-jackson-show--2896352/support.

Dana Gould returns to the show and they open by talking about his love of Charlton Heston, the insane Christmas story in “Gremlins”, how Adam convinced Mark Geragos to take the Menendez Brothers case, how Dana's mom ended up in a lunchbox and her use of “the board.” Next, Jason “Mayhem” Miller reads the news including stories about the San Francisco Department of Public Health hiring a 'body positivity consultant', Jim Carrey saying he took a break from Hollywood to get “out of people's faces”, and Supreme Court Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson receiving mixed reviews after making a surprise cameo in a Broadway musical. Then, Grant Cardone joins the show to talk about having to leave California personally and taking his businesses with him, why he thinks Trump's first 90 days back in office are going to be phenomenal, why he's sure the government is lying to us about not knowing what's going on with the drones over New Jersey, and his launching of the first-ever Bitcoin real estate fund.

U.S. Supreme Court Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson recently made her Broadway debut in a special one-night performance of “& Juliet.” Ketanji Brown Jackson, the first Black woman on the Supreme Court, fulfilled a lifelong dream of stepping onto the theater stage. “I feel very much in my element,” she told CBS News. Reflecting on her love for theater, Jackson said she was always performing as a child and felt deeply connected to the theater community. The experience included rehearsals, choreography, and vocal training, culminating in appearances in two scenes of the hit musical. Jackson said, “It's a story about female empowerment… to control their own destiny.” In her memoir, "Lovely One," Jackson recalls taking drama classes with Matt Damon at Harvard, balancing her love of theater and law.

[SEGMENT 1-1] Silly Leftists 1   Welcome, folks. It's KJ Radio time…the show where common sense kicks the buttocks of Leftism. WITH steel-toed boots. And trust me, there's no shortage of targets. UnitedHealthcare CEO Gets ShotFirst up, the CEO of UnitedHealthcare got shot. Now, I'm not saying this guy was involved in something shady, but if you look up “suspicious deaths” in the corporate dictionary, his picture probably pops up next to “knew too much.” A random act of violence? Yeah, and I'm the Easter Bunny. I mean, who gets shot at 3 PM on a Tuesday unless they're either a mob boss or a whistleblower? Somewhere in a boardroom, some healthcare exec just said, “See? THIS is why we stick to overcharging customers—it's safer!” SCOTUS and the Transgender CircusOver at the Supreme Court, we've got the transgender issue. And let me tell you, it's a bloodbath for the Left. Watching Justice Thomas and Alito dismantle the ACLU attorney was like watching Tyson in his prime—just brutal. Meanwhile, Ketanji Brown-Jackson is over here proving once again she couldn't win a game of “Guess Who?” She's supposed to rule on human rights but doesn't know the difference between a man and a woman? What's her benchmark—pronouns on a Starbucks cup? And the ACLU arguing this case? Their strategy is basically, “Well, Your Honor, we think biology is mean.” Pro tip: when you're trying to overturn centuries of reality, you might want to come with something stronger than feelings. Daniel Penny: Subway Defender ExtraordinaireLet's talk Daniel Penny. The man subdued a crazed subway lunatic threatening passengers, and now he's the one facing charges. Meanwhile, New York is releasing criminals like it's a Black Friday sale at Rikers. I say let the guy get back to his life. The only crime here is that we don't have a Daniel Penny on every subway train. The Great Pardon PanicOh, the pardons! Leftists are scrambling like chickens in a fox den. Remember when they lost their collective minds thinking Trump might preemptively pardon his kids? They were frothing at the mouth like rabid dogs, screaming, “Only the guilty need pardons!” Fast forward, and Joe Biden actually pardons Hunter, and suddenly it's a heartwarming story of fatherly love. You've gotta admire the consistency—oh wait, they don't have any.  [SEGMENT 1-2] Silly Leftists 2 And now Biden's gearing up for mass pardons. Rumor has it Adam Schiff's already practicing his “thank you” speech. Fauci's probably prepping too—he'll need one for every agency under his control: the NIH, FDA, CDC. By the time Biden's done, he'll need a bulk discount on “Pardon Me” cards. Trump's Appointments and the Lawsuit ShowdownSpeaking of accountability, let's talk about Trump's appointees. Despite the Left's best smear campaigns, they're holding strong. And Kash Patel threatening to sue Pence's advisor? I LOVE it. Finally, conservatives are playing offense. I don't know about you, but I'm tired of watching Republicans act like it's a three-legged sack race while the Left is in a tank. Let's start suing these clowns into oblivion. Why Be a Democrat Today?Which brings me to this question: why would anyone want to be a Democrat today? What's the appeal? The policies don't work, their scandals are more predictable than Hallmark movies, and their leaders are walking punchlines. Your flagship legislation is “Men Can Have Babies,” your economic policy is “Spend Until Collapse,” and your presidential frontrunner is... Joe Biden? Imagine being on a sinking ship, grabbing a bucket, and saying, “This is fine.” That's the Democratic Party right now. SCOTUS SmackdownBack to the SCOTUS hearing—seriously, the level of delusion on the Left is staggering. They want “special rights” for a mental disorder. And yes, that's what gender dysphoria is. They're trying to legalize feelings. What's next? Mandating that everyone applaud when a grown man in a tutu demands to use the women's restroom?  [SEGMENT 1-3] Silly Leftists 3   [X] SB – Charlamagne on The View Pt 1 The week's insanity has been one big reminder: the Left's hypocrisy knows no bounds. Whether it's defending pardons for their criminals, championing “rights” that defy logic, or spinning corporate corruption into a soap opera, they've mastered the art of ridiculousness. But don't worry, folks—common sense isn't dead. It's just taking a coffee break. [X] SB - Charlamagne on The View Pt 2 Sick of watching everybody else get over?     Pardons, Power, and Protecting the Crooked: Biden's Legacy of Legal Abuse Article II, Section 2 of the Constitution grants the president the authority to pardon offenses against the United States, a power intended to provide fairness and avoid prosecutorial abuses. Alexander Hamilton envisioned this clemency as a tool to “restore the tranquility of the commonwealth.” But in the hands of Joe Biden, the pardon power looks less like a tool for justice and more like a sledgehammer wielded to shield a crumbling empire of corruption. Biden's recent pardon of his son Hunter has spotlighted the blatant hypocrisy of the Left's use of clemency. After years of moral grandstanding, claiming the high road on justice and accountability, Democrats are now orchestrating mass pardons to shield themselves from the fallout of their own malfeasance. Pardons as Preemptive Damage Control During Trump's presidency, Democrats practically dared him to issue preemptive pardons for his family, projecting their own propensity for guilt on the former president. When Trump pardoned Jared Kushner's father, the media spun it as though he had pardoned Kushner himself. That narrative stuck, fueling the perception of Trump as corrupt, even as his actual record on pardons tells a different story. Trump, notably, did not pardon his children or any close associates preemptively. Why? Because they weren't guilty of anything. Contrast that with Biden, whose pardons aren't just reactive—they're preemptive damage control for an administration rife with misconduct. Leaks suggest Biden is preparing pardons for a laundry list of allies, including Adam Schiff, Liz Cheney, Anthony Fauci, and members of the January 6th Committee. These aren't minor players; they are key figures in the systemic abuse of power targeting Donald Trump and his supporters. The January 6th Committee alone violated so many laws it could be a semester-long case study at any law school. Then there's Fauci. A pardon for Fauci essentially extends to the entire health bureaucracy—NIH, FDA, CDC—that oversaw the disastrous COVID-19 policies. Lockdowns, vaccine mandates, suppression of dissent, and the mishandling of public trust—it's no wonder Biden would want to sweep this under the rug. A Record-Breaking Abuse of Power[SEGMENT 1-4] Silly Leftists 4   Historically, presidents have used pardons sparingly, often to right specific wrongs. Franklin D. Roosevelt holds the record with 2,819 pardons and 3,796 total acts of clemency, largely for people convicted under Prohibition laws. Barack Obama granted 1,927 acts of clemency, including a controversial commutation for Chelsea Manning. But Biden's pardon spree could make FDR's record look modest. Biden's administration isn't dealing with isolated cases of injustice—it's mopping up the collateral damage from years of systemic corruption. Consider the scope:The FBI: With over 37,000 employees, including 10,000 special agents, the agency's involvement in targeting Trump and MAGA supporters is well-documented.The CIA and NSA: These agencies, with a combined workforce exceeding 50,000, played their parts in surveillance and misinformation campaigns.IRS and FISA Courts: From targeting conservative groups to enabling dubious investigations, their roles can't be ignored.Biden's pardons could easily extend to thousands of individuals across these institutions, creating a tsunami of public outrage. This isn't about restoring tranquility; it's about cementing a legacy of corruption while protecting a broken system. Democrats: Masters of Projection The hypocrisy is staggering. Democrats who lambasted Trump for imagined abuses of power are now actively orchestrating the largest clemency cover-up in history. When Joy Reid and Adam Schiff criticized the idea of preemptive pardons, they framed it as an admission of guilt. Yet here we are, watching Biden prepare to issue blanket pardons to his political allies without a shred of irony.   [X] SB – Joy Reid and Adam Schiff on preemptive pardon   Dishonest man… Heard of an innocent person getting a blanket pardon       Hunter Biden's pardon set the tone: a sweeping, decade-long absolution for crimes ranging from tax evasion to illegal firearm possession. The message? Rules are for the little people. Trump: A Study in Contrast Trump's approach to pardons highlights the glaring differences between the two administrations. While Biden's pardons shield the guilty, Trump's were measured and purposeful. Trump used his clemency power to address specific injustices, such as Alice Johnson's over-sentencing or the persecution of Michael Flynn. More importantly, Trump didn't shield himself or his family. His restraint underscores the integrity of his administration compared to the flagrant abuses we're witnessing now. Rebuilding Trust in Justice Biden's pardon spree will leave a lasting stain on America's institutions. But it also presents an opportunity for renewal. When Trump returns to office, he will face the monumental Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-kevin-jackson-show--2896352/support.

Since the founding of the nation, just 116 people have served as Supreme Court Justices; the 116th is Ketanji Brown Jackson, appointed by President Biden in 2022. Jackson joined a Court with six conservative Justices setting a new era of jurisprudence. She took her seat just days after the Dobbs decision, when Justice Samuel Alito's majority opinion overturned Roe v. Wade. She wrote a blistering dissent to the Harvard decision, which ended affirmative action in college admissions, in which she accused the majority of a “let-them-eat-cake obliviousness” to the reality of race in America. She also dissented in the landmark Presidential-immunity case. Immunity might “incentivize an office holder to push the envelope, with respect to the exercise of their authority,” she tells David Remnick. “It was certainly a concern, and one that I did not perceive the Constitution to permit.” They also discussed the widely reported ethical questions surrounding the Court, and whether the ethical code it adopted ought to have some method of enforcement. But Jackson stressed that whatever the public perception, the nine Justices maintain old traditions of collegiality (no legal talk at lunch, period), and that she sometimes writes majority opinions as well as vigorous dissents. Jackson's recent memoir is titled “Lovely One,” about her family, youth, and how she got to the highest position in American law.To discover more podcasts from The New Yorker, visit newyorker.com/podcasts.

Not even two months after the first assassination attempt against him, President Trump survives another one. Media coverage of the event has been—predictably—atrocious. Meanwhile, Ketanji Brown Jackson has, by citing a junk study to support affirmative action, perfectly illuminated the dishonesty inherent in modern uses of social science. One of which is to support the Left' in its march toward mass censorship against anyone who doesn't support the current thing. Plus: an announcement about James & Seth.
