About this episode
This week on the Mark Levin Show, what’s going on in Syria is the ethnic cleansing and slaughter of the Druze by groups like ISIS, now operating under different names within the Syrian regime. Israel is the only county to help protect the Druze and Tom Barrack, an envoy to Syria, Turkey, and Lebanon, is a disaster for condemning Israel's defensive actions as complicating the situation. Barrack’s stance motivates terrorists, and he needs to go. ‘On Power’ discusses negative power, which is defined as coercion, control, and force, acting as the antithesis to individual liberty, consensual government, and civil society. It rejects biblical teachings of individual sovereignty and Enlightenment principles of distributed power, favoring centralized authority as seen in ideologies like Marxism, fascism, and authoritarian democracy. Wokeism is a modern authoritarian tool that enforces specific language and behavior, punishing non-conformity with social and professional consequences. Negative power dehumanizes individuals, viewing them as part of a collective to serve the ruling class or state, undermining personal well-being and autonomy. The whole point of the Russia hoax was an effort to delegitimize and destroy Trump's candidacy and presidency. Leaks from the FBI, Department of Justice, and intelligence agencies, along with a fabricated Steele dossier and a false narrative about Russia wanting Trump elected, were used to undermine him and DNI Tulsi Gabbard has the evidence. Barack Obama was aware of these efforts and ordered a misleading intelligence assessment to support the claims. Barack Obama orchestrated the Russia collusion hoax and his role was never questioned, nor was he investigated. Obama was the mob boss in the key December 16, 2016, meeting where Obama directed a new intelligence assessment falsely claiming heavy Russian involvement to aid Trump, despite prior assessments showing minimal, ineffective interference without Trump ties. There needs to be direct questioning of Obama under oath, without a special counsel, using Gabbard's documents, and re-questioning figures like John Brennan, James Clapper, Loretta Lynch, and James Comey about Obama's involvement. There’s a fundamental rift in values and morals between those who champion limited government and individual sovereignty, and those who embrace an all-powerful state. It’s the battle between positive power—rooted in defending institutions, the Constitution, separation of powers, and personal freedoms—and negative power, where the ends justify any means, leading to rampant abuses.
