On Friday’s Mark Levin Show, 10 Senate Democrats joined Republicans in support of keeping the government open, with 38 Democrats, voting for a filibuster, ultimately supporting a shutdown. The Continuing Resolution (CR) will now pass with a simple majority. The media, anticipating a shutdown, was ready to criticize the Republicans for clicks but is now frustrated at Sen Chuck Schumer. Had the government shut down, Democrats would have faced a difficult situation: President Trump and DOGE could have used the opportunity to cut non-essential employees and agencies, with budget law allowing these reductions to be self-identified. Also, Democrats consistently label Republicans as extreme, which is as a lie and a manipulative tactic. This misrepresentation, particularly regarding Medicaid, Medicare, and Social Security, is intended to confuse and mislead the American public rather than provide factual information. The left employs these tactics to manipulate perception and advance its political agenda. Later, the Attorney for Mahmoud Khalil argues that his case is a free speech issue. This case has absolutely nothing to do with free speech, this is an immigration issue. Democrats are attempting to establish a non-existent legal standard for green card holders. What is driving the protests at Columbia University? The institution has a longstanding presence of Marxist-leaning faculty, fostering a blend of Islamist and Marxist ideologies. They reject the principles of academic freedom, favoring coercion over open debate. Finally, Charlie Gasparino calls in to explain that that during President Biden’s last months in office, his administration allegedly spent between $250 billion and $300 billion on unnecessary expenditures, intended to stimulate the economy to get Kamala Harris elected. This is criminal in many ways. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
