Good Evening And WELCOME To The Mark Levin Show!

Donald Trump's former attorney Alan Dershowitz said that the unsealed affidavit supporting the FBI's search of Mar-a-Lago gives the Justice Department enough evidence to indict the former president.

The Chosen – Now Streaming Online I’ve watched The Chosen, Season 1 & 2 and was quite pleased. The quality is very impressive for a crowd funded production. Unlike Gospel of John, which kept very carefully to the Book, there was plenty of creativity employed. But unlike the debacles of Exodus: Gods and Kings (Moses) and Noah, it does not undermine the story. Instead it supports the narrative. Case in point, the clip below is one of my favorite stories – Jesus and the woman at the well. This story has been butchered and reimagined for centuries. Many have assumed...

Authorities suspect a Gretna woman who used gasoline to light a barbeque grill accidentally set her neighbor's house ablaze Saturday evening when the fuel can ignited, according to an arrest report. No one was injured in the fire at a home in the 3000 block of Hero Drive, said Chief Michael Labruzza of the Davy Crockett Steam Fire Company No. 1. But resident Ruby Villacorta Romero, 33, was arrested and booked with negligent arson, Gretna police said. Villacorta had planned to cook on an open grill that was set up under a carport at her residence, Gretna police said. The...

"Jesus saith unto her, Said I not unto thee, that, if thou wouldest believe, thou shouldest see the glory of God?" "And when they found them not, they drew Jason and certain brethren unto the rulers of the city, crying, These that have turned the world upside down are come hither also;" "(For all the Athenians and strangers which were there spent their time in nothing else, but either to tell, or to hear some new thing.)" John, Chapter 11 1 Now a certain man was sick, named Lazarus, of Bethany, the town of Mary and her sister Martha. 2...

A high-profile Washington, D.C. conservative pundit exploded in anger during a podcast interview he was conducting when his guest suggested that the burgeoning conservative Christian nationalist movement would inevitably push for the overturning of the U.S. Supreme Court’s 2015 Obergefell decision legalizing same-sex marriage. After asserting that Dave Rubin’s gay “marriage” is something “beautiful,” Ben Domenech, a Fox News contributor and founder and former publisher of The Federalist, lashed out at his guest, National Conservatism movement leader Yoram Hazony, who had said that “gay marriage is already back on the table,” ripe for a revitalized national public debate. Domenech, showing...

Like the Russia collusion FISA warrants before it, the FBI search warrant for Donald Trump's Florida estate relied on multiple news media reports from outlets such as Breitbart and CBS to justify its unprecedented request to raid a former president's home. For instance, the bureau relied on a local CBS report to establish that Trump had moved boxes suspected to contain documents from the White House to Mar-a-Lago in mid-January 2021, just before he left office, according to the partially redacted FBI affidavit made public by a court Friday. "According to a CBS Miami article titled 'Moving Tucks Spotted At...

Donald Fagen - I.G.Y. (What A Beautiful World - 1982This nugget from Donald Fagen's "Nightfly" album of 1982. Could have been a Steely Dan album. Should have been a Steely Dan album. But was not to be. Instead, it was Donald Fagen out on his own. And this jazz-influenced tune poured optimistic "feel-good" Friday afternoon vibes out of the speakers during the somewhat miserable autumn of 1982, just before Reaganomics kicked the economy into high gear. Fern bars were still somewhat a thing at that time and you can picture men in leisure suits sipping on a Heineken (this was...

Moments after police arrested an Alabama pastor watering his neighbor’s plants, an officer who witnessed Michael Jennings spraying the foliage with a water hose expressed doubt at Jennings’ version of events, according to body cam footage released Tuesday. Jennings, a Black pastor at Vision of Abundant Life Ministries in Sylacauga, was arrested on obstruction charges in the late May incident in Childersburg. The charges have since been dropped. Lawyers for Jennings obtained body cam footage from Childersburg police and released the video Tuesday, which also showed that Jennings identified himself as “Pastor Jennings” and officers denying that the minister identified...

A generic Republican candidate maintains a five-point lead over a generic Democrat, the same lead as the previous week, a Rasmussen Reports poll released Friday stated. As Republicans look to retake control of Congress in the 2022 midterm elections — only 74 days away — the most recent Rasmussen Reports survey showed that 47 percent of likely U.S. voters would elect a Republican, compared to the 42 percent who said they would vote for the Democrat, giving the GOP the same five-point lead as the previous week.

Google has begun removing old posts from my blog. Below are a couple of screen prints of just two of the many emails sent me about their actions. They are busy removing my articles I wrote all the way back to 2009, when I first started using this blog for a repository of my articles in anticipation of what eventually did happen with the newspaper I blogged for. With all the wokeness and scrubbing of history going on it was just a matter of time before they came after me. As I said, I was somewhat prepared when in 2012...

[Catholic Caucus] “A Dereliction of Paternal Duty…”: Open Letter to Bishop of Arlington The purpose of this letter is to explain the reasons why our monthly contribution to the parish has been cancelled.We believe that the new restriction on the Latin Mass in the diocese of Arlington is not the act of a true spiritual father and will ultimately be to the detriment of souls.Unfortunately, as parishioners of no prominence, the only method we have of communicating our disgust with these developments is the withdrawal of our financial support of the diocese. If there were another meaningful way to...

The Little Sisters of the Poor were a cause célèbre during President Obama’s tenure, and they’re still in court defending religious exceptions to ObamaCare’s contraceptive mandate. Progressives don’t merely want to win the country’s culture wars. They want to impose a Carthaginian peace. The latest evidence is a case involving the Franciscan Alliance that was heard a few weeks ago by the Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals. The alliance is a Catholic hospital system, mostly in Indiana, founded by the Sisters of St. Francis of Perpetual Adoration. As the alliance argues in its brief, in 2016 the government interpreted ObamaCare’s...

Explanation: Lights play around the horizon of this snowy little planet as it drifts through a starry night sky. Of course the little planet is actually planet Earth. Recorded on August 21, the digitally warped, nadir centered panorama covers nearly 360x180 degrees outside the Amundsen-Scott South Pole Station, Antarctica. The southernmost research outpost is near the horizon at the top where the light of dawn is approaching after nearly six months of darkness. Along the bottom is the ceremonial pole marker surrounded by the 12 flags of the original signatories of the Antarctic treaty, with a wild display of the...

How Many B-21 Raider Bombers Are Needed? At some point in the future, officials from the Department of the Air Force will likely be seated in a House subcommittee in our nation’s capital and asked a blunt question from United States lawmakers: How many B-21 Raider bombers do you actually need? Some U.S. Air Force officials are already pondering that query. Current plans call for the service to operate at least 100 long-range strategic bombers, but there have been calls for the Air Force to acquire upwards of 179 or more.

The White House on Friday offered a cost estimate for President Biden’s student loan forgiveness plan, saying it would cost $24 billion annually over 10 years, or $240 billion. Deputy Director of the White House National Economic Council Bharat Ramamurti told reporters at a White House briefing that the estimate assumed that 75 percent of those eligible for the student loan relief would take advantage of it.
