On Thursday's Mark Levin Show, a three-judge panel issued a 160-page order blocking Texas's new congressional redistricting plan, alleging it was unlawfully based on race rather than partisanship. In a scathing 104-page dissent, Judge Jerry Smith accused majority judges Jeffrey Vincent Brown and David Guaderrama of "pernicious judicial misbehavior" by denying him adequate time to review and respond, calling it the most outrageous judicial conduct he had encountered in 37 years. Smith argued the redistricting was driven by partisan gain, not racial animus, dismantling the majority's claims as deceptive, misleading, and factually erroneous. Hans von Spakovsky calls in to discuss this decision. Later, six Democratic members of Congress urged the U.S. military and national security personnel to reject and defy ‘illegal orders' from President Trump as commander-in-chief, which is an attempt to undermine the government, and overthrow the elected president. Trump has not issued unconstitutional or illegal orders and complies with court rulings. Their actions are disgusting and frightening. Also, Stephen A Smith calls in and addresses Michelle Obama saying men aren't ready to have a woman president. He also criticizes Democrats for the 43-day government shutdown over Obamacare subsidies, highlighting unfulfilled promises on costs and doctor retention. Afterward, Sean Hannity calls in to discuss law and order on the streets of America. Finally, Gabe Kaminsky calls in and exposes Nick Fuentes' nonprofit (tax exempt) America First Foundation group which is revamping for the 2026 midterm elections to "infiltrate politics" by evaluating candidates, guiding voter decisions, and mapping the "patronage networks" of the "Israel First lobby."

The Indiana Senate met for Organization Day and said we will see you in January. That appeared to leave Governor Mike Braun's quest for mid cycle redistricting without a path forward. Braun did not take the news well with a flurry of interviews and statements demanding senators return in December to vote on new maps. The governor also threatened to compel senators to return and said he would work to defeat those who did not.

It's Wednesday, so David Waldman and Greg Dworkin are here to analyze Tuesday's landside vote! Big man, pig man. Ha-ha, charade he is. It's just not going Donald K. Trump's way lately. Forget "winning", few people even pity the guy anymore. Yesterday Gops not only hung Donald out to dry, they liked it, and plan to make it a habit. They stepped right over Mike Johnson to do it, too. Discharge petitions go from unthinkable to de rigueur. If Gops won't censure Dem Stacey Plaskett for profiting off of Jeffrey Epstein, so Dems won't censure Republican Cory Mills, so there! You don't want Nancy Mace and Lauren Boebert yelling at you. Democrats have the biggest advantage for control of Congress in 8 years. Don't tell Dems… but it seems like a substantial lead. Redistricting has been blocked by judges in Texas and self-denied in Indiana. America's Favorite Governor is happy with his, thank you. Tariff checks are like passing out candy bars on the deck of the Titanic, stupid, unhelpful, but whatever. A pardoned Capitol rioter promised to put a child sex victim in his will for the remainder of his reparation money.

The news of Texas covered today includes:Our Lone Star story of the day: Panel of federal judges in El Paso rule (2 to 1) that Texas Congressional redistricting maps are race-based and block use of such even though race was not used at all in the drawing of the maps. Typical. Texas will appeal to the U.S. Supreme Court.Our Lone Star story of the day is sponsored by Allied Compliance Services providing the best service in DOT, business and personal drug and alcohol testing since 1995.Governor Abbott Designates Muslim Brotherhood, CAIR As Foreign Terrorist Organization.Texas Monthly preposterously claims it is Lt. Gov. Patrick and conservatives trying to re-write the history of the Alamo!There must not be an ounce of integrity at the magazine anymore. The Leftists admitted all along that it was their intention to rewrite Texas history and the story of the Alamo to focus on other things, mostly of the woke nature. Thank the Lord that Patrick has a sharp person reviewing what goes into the new museum because as we learned recently, even the head of Alamo Trust is a woke history revisionist. She's out and now she has filed a lawsuit.Putting God's Ten Commandments up in public school classrooms gets the judicial treatment you would expect from a Leftist politician put on the federal bench by Bill Clinton: Ten Commandments displays blocked at Texas public school districts.RIP: Listener, friend, and conservative Republican Roger Key.Listen on the radio, or station stream, at 5pm Central.

America is locked in what Todd calls a “cold civil war” that is getting hotter by the day. From the assassination of Charlie Kirk and the attempt on President Trump's life to Hunter Biden's “turn the heat up” rhetoric, the radical left is abandoning persuasion in favor of intimidation and political violence. Todd explains why this meets the definition of terrorism, why there must be a clear winner in this ideological battle, and why that victory must be peaceful, legal, and led through elections and accountability. He also breaks down a new Axios poll showing most Americans fear civil war and democratic decline, and calls out Indiana GOP leaders like Senator Rod Bray for refusing to fight on redistricting.

Let's talk about Trump, cops, Indiana, and redistricting....
Trump's new strategy to climb aboard the “Release the Epstein Files” bandwagon is already falling apart. As the ranking member on the House oversight committee, Robert Garcia reminds usTrump “has tried everything to kill our Jeffrey Epstein investigation”… “Now [Trump's] panickingi and has realized he is about to lose this Epstein vote to force the Department of Justice to release the files, Let's be crystal clear: Trump has the power to release all the files today,” ... “But instead, he wants to continue this cover-up and launch bogus new investigations to deflect and slow down our investigation. It won't work. We will get justice for the survivors.”We'll examine this with Pulitzer Prize winning author and investigative journalist David Cay Johnston. There's a big event coming up on November 22nd in Washington, D.C. .Jessica Denson will stop by to share details about the Remove the Regime rally.
