EXCERPT:  "At the heart of Arizona State University's campus, at the Memorial Union, an enthusiastic political event took root on a recent Wednesday. The event, a voter registration initiative known as ‘Greeks for Trump', gathered energy as students joined the crowd throughout the afternoon. The attendees, reaching around a hundred at its apex, enjoyed free merchandise along with Raising Cane's meals. A beacon for the gathering was Kari Lake, the Republican contender for a seat in the U.S Senate from Arizona, who declared, ‘Our aim here today is not only to enroll new voters, but also to invigorate our nation and reinforce what makes America truly outstanding.' Charlie Kirk, author and founder of Turning Point USA, was also a key figure at the event. With his organization's focus on high school and college-aged students, Kirk skillfully engaged with the young crowd, distributing his recent title ‘Right Wing Revolution: How to Beat the Woke and Save the West'. Autographs were written, caps with the bemusing phrase ‘Make America Great Again' were handed out, and a vibe of political commitment flowed through the crowd."

Today, Jim and Greg discuss the best strategies for conservatives to attack the Harris campaign, the DOJ finally forking over transcripts from the Bide classified documents probe, and the latest Secret Service embarrassment.First, they praise Pennsylvania U.S Senate hopeful David McCormick's attack ad that ties his opponent, incumbent Democrat Bob Casey, to Kamala Harris and her radical positions on energy, immigration, health insurance, and much mores. Jim analyzes the pros and cons that the Harris campaign has to work with, and formulates a plan of attack for conservatives.Next, they sigh at the Justice Department' suddenly releasing transcripts from President Biden's interview with Special Counsel Robert Hur after Biden has stepped down from the presidential race. Jim mocks them for their reasoning behind noncompliance with FOIA requests before Biden dropped out.Finally, they react to the news that the U.S. Secret Service is requesting that Donald Trump not hold outdoor rallies anymore because of the danger they pose. Jim isuggests Trump probably ought to agree just to be on the safe side. But he is far more disheartened that the Secret Service is is admitting that it is not competent enough to keep Trump safe at such rallies.Please visit our great sponsors:Zbioticshttps://zbiotics.com/3MLUse code 3ML at checkout to save 15% off your first order. Lumenhttps://lumen.meTake the next step in improving your health.  Use code 3ML at checkout to save 15%.

Greg is back on a busy news day, as he and Jim discuss the death of Iran's president, Biden's disgustingly divisive commencement speech, and the GOP latching on to a loser in the Arizona U.S Senate race.First, they shed zero tears upon the death of radical Iranian President Ebrahim Raisi and three other officials in a helicopter crash on Sunday. They document Raisi's murderous record and why his death is not worth mourning, but they also note that not much will change anytime soon for the Iranian people eager to be free.Next, they hammer President Biden for his racially divisive demagoguery in his commencement address at Morehouse College in Georgia. They not only dissect the appalling lies in the speech but also what it tells us about how Biden and his advisers see the state of the 2024 campaign.Finally, they groan as a new poll shows Democrat Ruben Gallego leading Republican Kari Lake by a wide margin in the Arizona Senate race. They see Lake as a surefire loser with way too much political baggage and urge GOP voters there to pick a nominee who would be far better at the job and would actually have a chance at winning in November.Please visit our great sponsors:Lumenhttps://lumen.meTake the next step in improving your health.

And yes, I am available for speaking engagements.]Today, millions of California voters will go to the polls and decide who will be the successor to Senator Laphonza Butler, who was appointed by Gov. Gavin Newsom this past October to fill the vacancy left by the late Sen. Dianne Feinstein, the longest tenured woman in the history of the U.S. Senate.Sen. Butler, who became, upon her appointment, the first Black LBGTQ person to serve in the Senate, was previously President of EMILY's List and a widely-respected labor organizer, among other well-earned garlands. But after being sworn in, Butler announced she would not seek election to a full term.Over the past year, four contenders have emerged to succeed her: Rep. Adam Schiff, Rep. Barbara Lee, Rep. Katie Porter, and Steve Garvey, former MLB player for the Los Angeles Dodgers and San Diego Padres (and the only Republican with a realistic shot).California has a nonpartisan blanket primary, in which all candidates of all party affiliations appear on the same ballot, and the top two vote-getters advance to the general election in a head-to-head match-up. Thus, it is possible we could see two Democrats battling it out in the general election.I didn't know much about Congressman Schiff before last year. I knew he was the lead impeachment manager during the first impeachment trial of then-President Donald Trump, for which he earned widespread praise. I knew he was the Chair of the House Intelligence Committee for four years before being kicked off by then-Speaker Kevin McCarthy in a shameless act of political retribution. I knew he was strong in his convictions. I knew he wouldn't back down from a fight, especially when faced with the childish obstruction of House Republicans. I knew he was well-liked by his colleagues and Hill staffers. I knew he was a pretty good writer, based on his long history of thoughtful public remarks.Of course, the sad thing about working in politics and living in D.C. is that there are numerous Members of Congress who have some combination of the above attributes and will still inevitably disappoint you. It's not so much that I've become jaded over the years—far from it—as I've become cautious when assessing elected officials.So, last summer, when a good friend invited me to a campaign fundraiser for Congressman Schiff's senatorial bid, I agreed to go but didn't expect much. In fact, when a work obligation popped up later for that same night, I didn't give a second thought to texting my friend that I couldn't go. She called me and said that the Congressman would be having a second fundraiser in town the following week and urged me to go. She even bought my ticket.”You have to meet him,” she said. “He's a great man and a great leader. You just have to meet him.”I agreed and showed up to the event near the end of the Congressman's stump speech—which was rather good—and listened to him answer any and all questions from attendees. No holds barred. He was impressive in his answers, and I remember thinking that he certainly seemed more tuned-in than most of his colleagues.A bit later, after the formal Q&A ended, I walked up to the Congressman with a question about the Equality Act, something I always ask federal elected officials in order to gauge how much they know. You'd be surprised—or perhaps, you wouldn't—by how little some Members of Congress understand about the holy grail of LGBTQ rights legislation. In short, the Equality Act would ban all forms of discrimination against LGBTQ people throughout the United States. Currently, there is no protection against anti-LGBTQ discrimination in nearly 30 states when it comes to housing, credit, jury service, education, health care, etc. The problem, of course, is that the legislation has been effectively blocked by congressional Republicans—namely, Sen. Mitch McConnell—for many years.Congressman Schiff calmly walked me through his thoughts, which initially started with the basics of the Equality Act and its necessity for a free and fair country for all citizens.Most of the time, these exchanges are rather short. An elected official might spend 30 seconds with me talking about the legislation and then do that typical D.C. move of signaling through body language and a subtle tone shift that they wanna move on to the next voter.But Mr. Schiff didn't do that. After laying out the basics, he began to delve into the particulars of the bill and the endorsements it had received from faith leaders and business owners and the specific challenges in engaging with congressional Republicans.I could tell there were others standing around me, hoping to talk to the Congressman about their own thing. They were waiting politely, but he was in no hurry to move on. He was not rushed, and he kept solid eye contact with me as he started offering details about the struggle for LGBTQ rights that, quite frankly, he had no business knowing. I forget the exact story on trans rights he brought up, but it was a news item that was published the previous day. I'm not kidding when I tell y'all that maybe 50 people in the country actually cared enough to know details about this particular news item, and nearly all of them were LGBTQ advocates. At the time, had I been asked, I would have been absolutely certain that no Member of Congress was up-to-speed on it.And so, I was gobsmacked/astonished/delighted when the Congressman went into detail about the trans rights news item and asked me questions in an effort to fill in any knowledge gaps he might have.He wasn't showy at all. He wasn't performing. I felt like I was having a productive and genuine conversation with an elected official who wanted to find a solution and wasn't afraid to admit when he didn't know something (which, by that point, was amusing given how much he clearly did know).Within a matter of minutes, I quickly found out that Adam Schiff is one of the most well-prepared folks serving in Congress and certainly one of the more empathetic.It didn't end there. Not even close. He had his staff follow-up with me, and a few months later, his office was instrumental in organizing a congressional briefing, in partnership with GLAAD, on LGBTQ rights for interested Members of Congress and Hill staff. The briefing itself was a success, but it stuck with me for a different reason. The Congressman was only expected to show up at the beginning, offer some brief remarks, and move on to the next thing. This is very common on the Hill given the packed schedules of Members.Except he didn't do that. After he gave his remarks, he sat in the front row and attentively listened to GLAAD's presenters for the entire briefing. He never checked his phone. He didn't glance at his watch. He didn't make an excuse midway through and quietly duck out, which would have been perfectly understandable.What sticks with me about this moment is that Congressman Schiff already knew almost all the information being presented in that briefing. I know that because of the knowledge mastery he had demonstrated at the fundraiser earlier in the year.And yet, he still sat through the entire briefing. He asked questions when it was appropriate. He engaged meaningfully. He made everyone at that briefing feel like we had a champion in our corner, and he did so without a hint of self-congratulation.Look, I don't live in California, and I don't get a vote in this race. I care about this campaign because the U.S. Senate is so often a dumpster fire, and any given individual senator has the power to singlehandedly bring the policy process to a screeching halt, like Tommy Tuberville blocking military promotions in an effort to prevent access to reproductive health care for women service members.There has never been a greater need for strong leaders of character in the U.S Senate, but moreover, there's never been a greater need for the senator who makes a point of being deeply informed and committed to a good faith process that centers knowledge and common sense.I'm quite jealous of you Californians. Today, you get to cast a vote for Adam Schiff to be your next senator, and I can't tell you how thankful I am that your vote will ensure the entire country benefits from his leadership in the Senate.We all need him there, and he appears to be right on time.For more information on how to vote today, visit this website to look up your voter registration and polling location.And if you'd like to financially contribute to Mr. Schiff's senatorial bid (and I highly encourage you to do so), click here.Allow me to offer you the thanks of a grateful nation in advance.Charlotte's Web Thoughts is a reader-supported publication.

On Friday's Mark Levin Show, House Republicans don't like being called boneheads, but working with Democrats simply to defeat Kevin McCarthy's election as Speaker will effectively give all power to a handful of liberal Republicans and the Democrats that support them. Then, while Americans are facing increased costs for everything, President Biden hosted a state dinner for the French President and served lobster. The same lobster industry which Biden wants to shut down. Later, in a bombshell revelation, Elon Musk released the facts on Twitter's role in blocking the Hunter Biden laptop story, which included blocking the White House Press Secretary's account, and the New York Post. It's also been reported that the FBI was meeting weekly with big tech companies in the weeks prior to the 2020 election and was deleting tweets directly at the request of the Biden Administration which has disproportionate influence inside Twitter. Afterward, with days to go before the Georgia runoff election for the U.S Senate, more information about Raphael Warnock's insidious anti-American past surfaces. Georgians have an opportunity to choose Herschel Walker and hopefully, they take advantage of it.  Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

In a crime that the U.S Senate described as “the worst terrorist attack on U.S. soil since September 11th,” Nidal Hasan carried out a brutal ambush on dozens of U.S soldiers. The case of Hasan is an interesting one to say the least. He was an Army Medical Corps psychiatrist yet clearly struggled with his own mental health in his six years in the job. Not only that, but he was observed by colleagues as having “anti-American” views which is curious considering he was serving in the U.S Army. These views would worsen along with his apparent radicalization until they came to a deadly peak on November 5th, 2009. Subscribe and share 10 Minute Murder with your true crime loving friends.

On Wednesday's Mark Levin Show, the DOJ filing defended their Mar-A-Lago search and the unauthorized removal of former President Trump's passports stating that it was necessary to stop the threat to national security posed by the three classified documents they found in Trump's desk. 'Hiding' documents on one's desk is the best way to hide them and commit obstruction, right? The DOJ and the media are working together to create much ado about nothing. Then, the FBI spied on MLK and threatened him. Yet Democrats say if you don't support the FBI in this unconstitutional raid then your anti-law enforcement. How is it that Hillary Clinton was not charged with violating the Espionage Act yet a former President who had the power to declassify documents should be charged with violating it? Later, China's claim that they own Taiwan is bull. Taiwan was a territory of Japan more than 100 years ago. The communist Chinese must be stopped. Afterward, Dr. Oz joins the show to discuss his U.S Senate race against Pennsylvania's Lt. Governor John Fetterman. Fetterman's far-left radical views are outside of the norm in Pennsylvania in so much as he advocates for public drug use and has bragged about pardoning murderers from prison.

Laura Davison, Bloomberg Tax Reporter, discusses the U.S Senate passing the Democrats' landmark Tax, Climate, Drugs bill. She spoke with host Ed Baxter on Bloomberg Radio.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

It's Sunday June 26th, 2022 – two days after the Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade – and President Joe Biden knows what he needs to do.Biden needed to announce his endorsement to Rep. Danny Davis, the 25-year incumbent in Chicago's bluest Congressional district, IL-07. Two days before polls opened in a primary contest between a quarter-century incumbent and Kina Collins, a grassroots organizer against gun violence in Rep. Davis' district, Joe Biden needed Democrats to know: the party's old guard deserves to stay in power. On election day, Kina Collins lost by a 7-point margin.And that pretty much sums up the Justice Democrats 2022 primary cycle. Almost every race came down to the wire. At the end of every nailbiter showdown, corporate money and establishment Democratic leadership pulled out all the stops (and all the money) to keep young, progressive Democrats from representing their own communities in Congress… while President Biden's agenda was gutted in public by the anti-majoritarian Supreme Court and U.S Senate.In this episode, Amira talks with Campaigns Director Geoff “Coach” Simpson, Candidate Communications Manager Usamah Andrabi, and Rebel Alliance Director Alexandra Rojas about what the political left has learned – or needs to learn, at the tail end of another Justice Democrats primary cycle. What's changed since summer 2020, when Jamaal Bowman beat Engel by double digits despite the late establishment rush to save the incumbent? And Cori Bush won her rematch primary by a slim but decisive margin? Are we losing ground? Getting outspent, or just out maneuvered? Hard to know with certainty, but the Empire is Striking Back and it's time for some Rebels to retrieve the Death Star plans..

Plus, discussions in the U.S Senate on gun legislation have hit a speed bump, Downtown Arlington will host a concert to raise money for the families of Uvalde victims and Dallas police say overall violent crime continues its downward trend. This and more on the All Local.

On Friday's Mark Levin Show, with thousands of witnesses interviewed by the January 6th committee, they didn't reveal much of anything. Ivanka Trump's testimony wasn't unusual given that she's left the White House at the time and wasn't plugged into campaign operations. No one questioned what information Bill Barr had seen, especially since most election issues are handled at the state level, not the federal level. A court of law would never allow a one-sided process like this committee. Then, it's not easy to be misrepresented by some unhinged critic or political foe. A new poll from Southern Poverty Law Center shows that half of young Democrats are okay with the assassination of political foes. Yet no one says anything about President Biden, Nancy Pelosi, Chuck Schumer, and the rest of the Democrats spewing their violent rhetoric. Later, Author Julie Kelly calls in to explain that Pelosi's Jan. 6th Committee has one goal, and it's to drive a stake through the heart of the MAGA movement. Kelly mentioned the story of Matthew Perna, a Jan 6 detainee that committed suicide after the Feds kept piling charges on him for being at the Capitol. Seditious conspiracy is the latest charge the government is pursuing against 100 detainees. Afterward, Congressman Mo Brooks calls in with an update on his campaign against a Mitch McConnell lobbyist running for the U.S Senate against him in Alabama. Brooks reiterated that America needs a Trump's conservative to win this race. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

On Wednesday's Mark Levin Show, Nicholas J. Roske, armed with a handgun, a knife, and a bag filled with tools and zip ties was arrested outside the home of Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh after admitting he was there to murder Kavanaugh. Kavanaugh's home address was published online after being doxed by pro-abortion groups in May. Two years ago Sen Chuck Schumer threatened two Supreme Court Justices, is this not seditious? Yet, no one called for his resignation or for a televised congressional hearing during prime time. Then, Speaker Nancy Pelosi failed to secure the Capitol building and has sat on legislation to protect the Justices. No action was taken. Merrick Garland hasn't prosecuted a single public official for their actions, yet Pelosi will hold a hearing to smear President Trump. Later, The House passed a bill that will ambiguously ban high capacity 'assault weapons.' This bill faces a difficult fate in the U.S Senate. The term 'assault rifle' is misleading and has not been defined. Whereas machine guns or automatic weapons are already banned and have been banned under the assault weapons ban. AR-15's are semi-automatic just like a revolver or pistol that only shoots one bullet at a time and then reloads. Afterward, Bill O'Reilly calls in to discuss his new book "Killing the Killers: The Secret War Against Terrorists." https://www.amazon.com/Killing-Killers-Against-Terrorists-OReillys/dp/1250279259/ref=sr_1_1?qid=1651691996&refinements=p_27%3ABill+O%27Reilly&s=books&sr=1-1 O'Reilly added that what we're witnessing is leftists out of control and engaging in an ideological civil war. Noting that even liberals are tired of the progressive wokeness. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

On Wednesday's Mark Levin Show, JD Vance wants to be a Senator in Ohio with no record, he's running on Trump's record, and he didn't even vote for Trump in 2016. Vance opposed the Tea Party movement. Conversely, Josh Mandel was an early supporter of the Tea Party, beat the RINO establishment, and got elected statewide. What has Vance ever done for the conservative movement? Billionaire Peter Thiel wants to buy a U.S Senate seat and Vance is his guy to do it. Don't allow endorsements to sway you, look at each candidate and you'll see that Josh Mandel is the best candidate for Ohio. A fair primary is welcomed but lying and bullying should never be tolerated. Then, Putin is threatening America again and President Biden is silent. These are the times when we need a President like Trump or Reagan that will guarantee mutually assured destruction if Putin keeps it up. Unlike Rand Paul or JD Vance, Trump is a rational, prudential leader that knows when to use the military to protect America instead of romanticizing Putin. Later, pretend-journalist Jonathan Swan falsely claimed that this program's host was a never-Trumper. This mischaracterization was disproved several times and the archives are available for all to listen to. Afterward, Brad Anderson, former CEO of Best Buy and Executive Chairman of the Board at Job Creators Network joins the show to explain why corporations need to focus on their bottom line and serving customers not disagreements over social policy. Anderson added that this 'wokeness' phenomenon is led by executives that inherit established businesses, not the executives that created the business working hard to earn each customer's business. Businesses will remain healthy as long as companies embrace all and alienate none. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

On Friday's Mark Levin Show, Democrats have been pushing the lie that the Russians elected Donald Trump in 2016 for years. This was the worst abuse in modern American history but for the subsequent abuses from Democrats toward the sitting President. Those who hate liberty are using the Constitution in order to destroy the Constitution. Then, Ketanji Brown Jackson dodged the question of defining a woman is because she intends to help Democrats redefine the legal definition of what a woman is in future supreme court cases on women's sports and transgender school cases. This activist Judge is a happy progressive warrior. Later, wheat shortages in Russia and Ukraine will not impact the U.S, but President Biden's energy and economic policies are doing plenty of damage. Rising gas prices and inflation are driving up the cost of American goods. Biden is the cause of food shortages in America, not Putin. Afterward, U.S Senate candidate from Pennsylvania Dr. Mehmet Oz calls in to discuss how we was unceremoniously dismissed from the President's Council on Fitness and Nutrition over what he surmises was Biden's unhappiness with his political positions.
