Fox News host Mark Levin is warning Republicans to pay close attention to what is happening in the Trump trials and at the Supreme Court.
He spoke to fellow Fox News host Sean Hannity about it as they were talking about the campus protests against Israel at many colleges in the United States:
“Let’s start with the Hitler youth on our college and university campuses,” he said. “Joe Biden has gaslit this entire thing with his comments about Israel, his attacks on Bibi Netanyahu, his attacks on Israel trying to defend itself against Gaza and all the rest, Joe Biden is responsible for much of the hate and that’s why he doesn’t stand up like a man, like a statesman and put it down and say it in unequivocal terms. This isn’t about Palestine. This is about terrorism on our college campuses.
“Joe Biden has been on the wrong side whether it was race and bigotry when he walked into the Senate, and now, it’s antisemitism. He’s the antisemite president, that’s what he is, the Third Reich in the Ivory Tower. It’s been written about, the Third Reich in the Ivory Tower, Hitler’s American friends, it’s been written about, buried by “The Times,” the American media, they’re all back,” he said.
“The Democrat Party, the Hitler youth on our campuses, and let me make a suggestion, America, aren’t you sick of paying for this? We need a BDS movement, a boycott, divest, and sanction movement for all of these universities and colleges, start defunding them, start defunding them, start eliminating tenure for these sanctimonious Marxist, Islamist professors. Take our college campuses back from the Soviet-style, you know, fanatics that run them,” the host and legal expert said.
“We don’t have to have these no-go zones in our country. These universities in our country. Notice, they’re all in Democrat cities, almost all in Democrat states.
“This isn’t happening among Republicans and so forth, but I want to point out something about the Supreme Court case since you have brought that up. Let me say something that hasn’t been said yet, the court is sitting there trying to be King Solomon and decide how they’re going to cut up the baby, cut the baby in half,” he said. “And King Solomon said no, and the mother of the baby said, no, no, no, no, don’t do it. Give it to the fraud. Give the baby to the fraud.”
“Let me explain something. Since the beginning of this country, since elections, we have never had a situation where elections have been criminalized by the government. They talk about fake electors. In 1876, three Republican states had a second set of electors. They’re not fake electors. They’re electors that are set. Congress makes the final decision, there’s nothing criminal, there’s nothing obstructive about it,” the host said.
“A president or a candidate calling a speaker of the House, calling a board of elections official, calling a governor, so what? Big deal. They’re allowed to do that, that’s not obstruction, that’s not a crime either.
“Or trying to get a legislature to bring their laws back to what they were before the Democrats were in there litigating, that’s not a crime either. But you know what? They keep talking about overturning election, an election is decided by the United States Congress, that meets in joint session to count the Electoral College votes,” he said.
WATCH:
“Ask Jamie the Red Raskin who jumps up every time and objected to two times George W. Bush being elected president. Ask him when he jumped up in 2016, said, don’t count the electors, Donald Trump’s not the real president.
“These challenges happen all the time, and yes, even when John Eastman said to Vice President Pence, we recommend that you don’t do this, that you do that, that’s not a crime either. In 1876, that’s exactly what happened. How come Rutherford B. Hayes wasn’t charged? How come the electors in Florida and Louisiana weren’t charged? How come all of a sudden, all of a sudden, this entire electoral process is criminalized where today we don’t know what’s even legal anymore?” he said.
“You can’t have a slate of electors. We used to do that. You can’t call a Board of Elections official. We used to do that. You can’t lobby a governor or Congress. The Democrats have done this all the time. Let me just say this Supreme Court, you made a big mistake, and all the legal analysts, too—they’re sitting there,” the host said.
“What’s an official act? What’s a private act? No, no, no, no, no. You’re not Solomon. This should not be criminalized. We have an electoral system and a political system. We have states, we have a Congress. They should sort the things out—not you. That’s why you can’t figure out what to do,” he said before getting into the immunity case at the Supreme Court.
“This immunity stuff you were dragged into — you were dragged into Jack Smith’s world. When you were dragged in it before, you ruled eight to zero against him. When it involved Bob McDonnell in Virginia, he’s twisted the Constitution, he’s criminalized the election,” the host said.
“He’s using the 1871 Klan Act, for God’s sake. He’s using the Enron Act, which you court you’re now looking at, and seeing if that’s constitutional and a Federal Contractor Act, he looked for anything he could to go after Donald Trump. He has weaponized this process,” he said.
“You do not criminalize the political process. You do not criminalize the electoral process, and now you have Democrat district attorneys running loose doing the same thing.
“Supreme Court, have the guts to put this back in the box. I don’t care what the commentators on CNN and MSNBC say. Have the guts to say, wait a minute, courts, get the hell out of this business. This is not up to us. It’s up to the people, their elected representatives and Congress, not us,” he said.
