Trump’s Trade Strategy Defies Critics plus The Great One talks about his New Book & Border Policies Slash Illegal Crossings by 90% · The Ben Ferguson Podcast

  Speaker 1: Donald Trump promised that he was going to put America first,
• 0:04
  Speaker 1: and he promised that he was going to do it,
• 0:06
  Speaker 1: especially when it came to trade deals where America was
• 0:09
  Speaker 1: being taken advantage of by countries literally all over the world,
• 0:13
  Speaker 1: and he was going to do it by imposing more
• 0:15
  Speaker 1: tariffs to make it fair trade. He was tired of
• 0:18
  Speaker 1: American jobs disappearing, American manufacturing disappearing, and again America just
• 0:25
  Speaker 1: being taken advantage of by countries that had no problem
• 0:28
  Speaker 1: importing their goods in the US, but weren't even taking
• 0:31
  Speaker 1: our goods, and even in places like the UK, a
• 0:35
  Speaker 1: strong ally of ours. Well, now we're hearing that Donald
• 0:38
  Speaker 1: Trump could impose more tariffs on China over Russian oil.
• 0:44
  Speaker 1: But here's the point that I want to make before
• 0:47
  Speaker 1: we get to that the media was wrong. They claimed
• 0:50
  Speaker 1: it was all doom and gloom, that the tariffs weren't
• 0:53
  Speaker 1: going to work, that it was going to be bare
• 0:54
  Speaker 1: shelves for the Americans as you went to your favorite
• 0:57
  Speaker 1: store to get basic necessity, and then it was going
• 1:01
  Speaker 1: to put us into a recession. None of that happened.
• 1:05
  Speaker 1: Larry Kudlow at Fox News Channel saying this.
• 1:08
  Speaker 2: Yeah, and you know, I remember when everyone said the
• 1:11
  Speaker 2: market would crash, inflation would skyrocket because of these terrorists.
• 1:15
  Speaker 2: But that's not what's happening. And now you've got billions
• 1:18
  Speaker 2: of dollars coming in. Larry, I want to go, I
• 1:20
  Speaker 2: want to pivot in here, because yeah, that's.
• 1:24
  Speaker 3: An important point though, just to you know, we're thirty
• 1:27
  Speaker 3: seconds here. All the gloom and doom, tariff inflation, tariff recession,
• 1:33
  Speaker 3: tariff catastrophe, none of that has happened. Okay. And in fact,
• 1:37
  Speaker 3: as you noted earlier, the tariff revenues are pouring in. Okay,
• 1:43
  Speaker 3: he could do as much as four hundred billion this
• 1:47
  Speaker 3: year alone in tariff revenues. Imports from China, or let's say,
• 1:53
  Speaker 3: Chinese exports to the United States, all right, their lowest
• 1:57
  Speaker 3: point in over twenty years. Our trade deficit through June
• 2:03
  Speaker 3: is at its lowest point in the last two years. Okay.
• 2:07
  Speaker 3: These are all positives. And basically what he's saying is
• 2:11
  Speaker 3: he wants to level playing field and he wants to
• 2:13
  Speaker 3: protect the American economy. People have been taking advantage of
• 2:16
  Speaker 3: the United States and that's coming to an end now.
• 2:21
  Speaker 3: Instead of warfare, you know, set of retaliation or the
• 2:25
  Speaker 3: so called world tariff war. No, it's deal making, deal
• 2:29
  Speaker 3: making everywhere the deal maker in chiefe place, Yes, exactly.
• 2:35
  Speaker 3: And you know a place like Japan which is difficult,
• 2:38
  Speaker 3: or South Korea which is difficult, or the European Union
• 2:42
  Speaker 3: which is difficult. So I would say he's gotten off
• 2:45
  Speaker 3: to a great start on this policy.
• 2:48
  Speaker 1: Not only has he gotten off to a great start,
• 2:50
  Speaker 1: but other countries are starting to come to the table
• 2:52
  Speaker 1: quickly to make sure they get their deal done as
• 2:56
  Speaker 1: fast as they can.
• 2:57
  Speaker 4: Now.
• 2:57
  Speaker 1: The President has also talked about what he's going to
• 3:00
  Speaker 1: do with pharmaceuticals, making it clear that he is going
• 3:03
  Speaker 1: to be putting tariffs on pharmaceuticals. Why because he wants
• 3:07
  Speaker 1: the maid in our country and not us depending on
• 3:10
  Speaker 1: other nations like China from a national security standpoint.
• 3:14
  Speaker 5: Listen to President on CNBC on.
• 3:16
  Speaker 6: That chips We'll be putting a initially small tariff on pharmaceuticals,
• 3:22
  Speaker 6: but in one year one and a half year's maximum,
• 3:26
  Speaker 6: it's going to go to one hundred and fifty percent,
• 3:28
  Speaker 6: and then it's going to go to two hundred and
• 3:30
  Speaker 6: fifty percent because we want pharmaceuticals made in our country
• 3:35
  Speaker 6: and that's not the chipsack like Biden did because he
• 3:37
  Speaker 6: didn't know what he was doing, where they gave billions
• 3:39
  Speaker 6: of dollars to companies that had more money than they
• 3:41
  Speaker 6: knew what to do with.
• 3:43
  Speaker 1: Which brings me to the new point that Donald Trump
• 3:46
  Speaker 1: is making the new frontier on tariffs. We're now being
• 3:51
  Speaker 1: told from the White House the President Trump is now
• 3:53
  Speaker 1: saying he will announce further tariffs on China, similar to
• 3:57
  Speaker 1: the twenty five percent duties announced earlier on India over
• 4:02
  Speaker 1: its purchases of Russian oil, depending on what happens. He said,
• 4:07
  Speaker 1: it could happen, Trump told reporters after saying he expected
• 4:10
  Speaker 1: to announce more secondary sanctions aimed at pressuring Russia to
• 4:15
  Speaker 1: end its war in Ukraine, he said, quote, it may happen.
• 4:20
  Speaker 5: I can't tell you yet.
• 4:21
  Speaker 1: We did it with India, We're doing it probably with
• 4:24
  Speaker 1: a couple of others. One of them could be China.
• 4:28
  Speaker 1: Trump on Wednesday imposed an additional twenty five percent tariff
• 4:32
  Speaker 1: on Indian goods on top of a twenty five percent
• 4:36
  Speaker 1: tariff announced previously, citing its continued purchases of Russian oil.
• 4:42
  Speaker 5: Now, the White House order did.
• 4:44
  Speaker 1: Not mention China, which is another big purchaser of Russian oil.
• 4:49
  Speaker 1: Last week, the Treasury Secretary Scott Dessent warned China that
• 4:54
  Speaker 1: it could also face new tariffs if it continued buying
• 4:57
  Speaker 1: the Russian oil. So China is also responding to this
• 5:02
  Speaker 1: as well, and there is escalation between the two countries
• 5:06
  Speaker 1: as China pushes back at the US with their own
• 5:09
  Speaker 1: comments against the president.
• 5:12
  Speaker 5: Here's what they said.
• 5:14
  Speaker 1: China quote will always ensure its energy supply in ways
• 5:18
  Speaker 1: that serves our national interests, is what the Chinese Foreign
• 5:21
  Speaker 1: Ministry posted on acts following two days of trade negotiations
• 5:26
  Speaker 1: in Stockholm. Responding to the US threat of one hundred
• 5:29
  Speaker 1: percent tariff coercion and pressuring will not achieve anything, China
• 5:35
  Speaker 1: will firmly defended sovereignty, security and development interest, the ministry went.
• 5:40
  Speaker 5: On to say.
• 5:41
  Speaker 1: Now the response is notable at a time when both
• 5:44
  Speaker 1: Beijing and Washington are signaling optimism and goodwill between the
• 5:49
  Speaker 1: two countries when it comes to well getting a deal
• 5:53
  Speaker 1: done after climbing down from sky high tariffs and harsh
• 5:57
  Speaker 1: trade restrictions. It also underscores china confidence in playing hardball,
• 6:02
  Speaker 1: the country says when dealing with President Trump and his administration,
• 6:06
  Speaker 1: especially when trade is linked to its energy and foreign policies,
• 6:10
  Speaker 1: the President saying I'm not afraid and making it clear
• 6:14
  Speaker 1: that if you're buying from Russia, it's going to be
• 6:17
  Speaker 1: a problem for the United States of America, which brings
• 6:21
  Speaker 1: us to the bigger picture, and the question is what
• 6:24
  Speaker 1: can you expect from new tariffs on imported goods? Well,
• 6:28
  Speaker 1: American businesses and consumers will soon have a better idea
• 6:33
  Speaker 1: of how President Donald Trump's foreign trade agenda might actually
• 6:36
  Speaker 1: affect you directly. What US customers can expect from the
• 6:39
  Speaker 1: new tariffs on imported goods is also something that the
• 6:42
  Speaker 1: Associated Press is saying is quote turning real American businesses
• 6:47
  Speaker 1: and the consumers, they say, will have a better idea
• 6:50
  Speaker 1: of how President Donald Trump's foreign trade agenda will affect them.
• 6:54
  Speaker 1: When the imposed higher tariffs on products from dozens of
• 6:57
  Speaker 1: countries hit the shelves. It's it's been nearly one hundred
• 7:01
  Speaker 1: years since the nation had an overall import tax rate
• 7:05
  Speaker 1: as high as the one set today, but the individual
• 7:08
  Speaker 1: impact on businesses, costs, and consumer prices could vary as
• 7:13
  Speaker 1: much as the tariffs applied to goods of nearly seventy
• 7:18
  Speaker 1: US trading partners from complicated economies like the European Union
• 7:23
  Speaker 1: to small African nations as well. Experts from a majority
• 7:28
  Speaker 1: of them are getting tax at fifteen percent. For a
• 7:31
  Speaker 1: handful of countries in Asia the rate is nineteen percent.
• 7:35
  Speaker 1: Products from the rest of the world are subjected to
• 7:37
  Speaker 1: taxes of twenty to fifty percent. Meanwhile, there's still a
• 7:41
  Speaker 1: fifty five percent tariff on Chinese made goods is scheduled
• 7:45
  Speaker 1: to take effect next week if a US China trade
• 7:49
  Speaker 1: deal has not agreed to on or before then. Now,
• 7:53
  Speaker 1: businesses in the US and abroad have been dealing in
• 7:55
  Speaker 1: various ways since February with the tariffs. But what we
• 8:00
  Speaker 1: found is that many Americans are happy with what they're
• 8:03
  Speaker 1: seeing in the stores. Why because many companies are actually
• 8:07
  Speaker 1: absorbing the costs for now. A great example of that
• 8:11
  Speaker 1: is automakers. They appear to be leading the pack and
• 8:14
  Speaker 1: have absorbed the costs at this point instead of passing
• 8:18
  Speaker 1: it on to you the consumer. Now, recent government data
• 8:21
  Speaker 1: indicated that retail prices for groceries, furniture, and appliances have
• 8:27
  Speaker 1: started to creep up minimally in June, far less than
• 8:31
  Speaker 1: what the experts claimed when they said there was going
• 8:33
  Speaker 1: to be doom and gloom because tariffs, sorry, tax on imports.
• 8:38
  Speaker 1: Economists had expected US customers to foot the bill. And
• 8:42
  Speaker 1: guess what that is not what has happened at all.
• 8:45
  Speaker 1: The projections were all based on analysis of duties implemented
• 8:49
  Speaker 1: this year through Wednesday, and they said it was going
• 8:52
  Speaker 1: to be terrible. But the actual price increases a bit
• 8:56
  Speaker 1: about one point eight percent in the short term. And
• 9:00
  Speaker 1: the US government has been collecting billions from the countries
• 9:04
  Speaker 1: that the present decided to put tariffs on. So at
• 9:08
  Speaker 1: the end of the day, as President Trump unveiled the
• 9:10
  Speaker 1: sweeping import tax on goods coming into the US from
• 9:13
  Speaker 1: sixty six countries, the European Union, Taiwan, the Falkland Islands
• 9:18
  Speaker 1: in April, what did he say? He said, the reciprocal
• 9:21
  Speaker 1: tariffs were meant to boost domestic manufacturing. That has happened.
• 9:25
  Speaker 1: It's also meant to restore fairness to global trade. That
• 9:29
  Speaker 1: has also happened. And here's the point that matters to you.
• 9:33
  Speaker 1: The present pause the country specific tariffs a week later,
• 9:37
  Speaker 1: but applied to ten percent tax to most imports. In
• 9:40
  Speaker 1: early July, he began notifying countries that their exports would
• 9:44
  Speaker 1: be subject to higher tariffs on August one unless they
• 9:47
  Speaker 1: reached the trade deals. A week ago, he pushed the
• 9:50
  Speaker 1: start date to Thursday. So here we are. It is Thursday,
• 9:56
  Speaker 1: and it's real. In the meantime, Trump has also announced
• 9:59
  Speaker 1: a third five percent tariff on imports from Canada, but
• 10:02
  Speaker 1: delayed action on Mexico while negotiations continue. However, a free
• 10:07
  Speaker 1: trade agreement reached with Mexico and Canada during Trump's first
• 10:11
  Speaker 1: term shields most of those countries' products from punishing duties.
• 10:16
  Speaker 1: The president also ordered a fifty percent tariffs on goods
• 10:19
  Speaker 1: from Brazil this week. He also signed executive order to
• 10:22
  Speaker 1: take India's tarif freight from twenty five to fifty percent,
• 10:25
  Speaker 1: all because of, as I mentioned earlier, the purchases of
• 10:28
  Speaker 1: Russian oil. So the President's not playing, and what we
• 10:32
  Speaker 1: now know is the present's telling you the truth. If
• 10:35
  Speaker 1: you're one of these countries around the world, you either
• 10:37
  Speaker 1: come to the table and get a real deal done
• 10:40
  Speaker 1: or it is going to hurt your country more than America.
• 10:44
  Speaker 1: As for the president, he has the backing of the
• 10:47
  Speaker 1: American people. New pulling data shows, and that's exactly why
• 10:51
  Speaker 1: the President's continuing to keep the course. Because the tariffs
• 10:54
  Speaker 1: seem to be working all right. I want to take
• 10:57
  Speaker 1: a moment talk about the economy. You've been seeing what's
• 10:59
  Speaker 1: happening on Wall Street, You've seen what's been happening with
• 11:01
  Speaker 1: interest rates, and you've probably seen gold prices hitting all
• 11:05
  Speaker 1: time record highs. Why because there is uncertainty all over
• 11:10
  Speaker 1: the world right now, and when there is uncertain times,
• 11:13
  Speaker 1: you want real answers about your financial stability. Well, at
• 11:17

  Speaker 1: throw it out there anyway.

  Speaker 5: He has had an incredible impact on my career.

  Speaker 1: A sincere and genuine Uh, someone I look up to
• 13:33
  Speaker 1: and I'm so thankful to have people like this in

  Speaker 1: the radio community.
• 13:37
  Speaker 5: But also in this world is Mark Levin.
• 13:40
  Speaker 1: I've had the honor of filling in for him for
• 13:42
  Speaker 1: several years now, and he is a man that writes
• 13:45
  Speaker 1: books that when he writes them, you need to pause,
• 13:47
  Speaker 1: you need to buy them, and you need to read them.
• 13:49
  Speaker 1: There's a reason why they're always a bestseller. And he's
• 13:52
  Speaker 1: got a new book out called On Power. It explores
• 13:55
  Speaker 1: the nature of power. It's historical uses, good and bad,
• 13:59
  Speaker 1: the impact on liberty. Mark, thank you for coming on
• 14:02
  Speaker 1: and I'm excited about this book. I got an advanced
• 14:04
  Speaker 1: copy Reddit cover to cover, and I don't think the
• 14:08
  Speaker 1: timing of this book could have been any better, especially
• 14:11
  Speaker 1: coming after what we just saw with the Biden regime
• 14:14
  Speaker 1: and the auto pen and the abuse of power. It
• 14:18
  Speaker 1: can be used for good and bad, There's no doubt
• 14:20
  Speaker 1: about it.
• 14:21
  Speaker 4: First of all, thank you for that intro. You are
• 14:24
  Speaker 4: a terrific person and a great radio talent as well,
• 14:27
  Speaker 4: and I really appreciate it, brother, And it's always a
• 14:30
  Speaker 4: thrill to be back in your community, Memphis. Yeah. So
• 14:35
  Speaker 4: I wrote this book On Power, and I'll tell you why, Ben,
• 14:38
  Speaker 4: Because in addition to the point two raise, which I
• 14:40
  Speaker 4: definitely want to get into, I just started the thinking,
• 14:44
  Speaker 4: started thinking that I'm not sure we're addressing this issue
• 14:48
  Speaker 4: of tyranny in our liberty properly, because when you really
• 14:53
  Speaker 4: think about it, the Revolutionary War wasn't photover liberty. This
• 14:57
  Speaker 4: photover power in order to acquire or preserve liberty. And
• 15:02
  Speaker 4: I got to thinking, you know, liberty without rights is
• 15:05
  Speaker 4: non existent. Rights without powers non existent. So power is
• 15:09
  Speaker 4: the bottom line. And you bring up what they've done
• 15:12
  Speaker 4: to Trump, but they're trying to do to Trump, the
• 15:14
  Speaker 4: Obama Hillary scandal and others. It's all about power. In fact,
• 15:19
  Speaker 4: this whole battle over budgets, that's about power. Open borders
• 15:22
  Speaker 4: so they can swamp us with new congressional districts for Democrats,
• 15:27
  Speaker 4: same thing, trying to control the Supreme Court and potentially
• 15:32
  Speaker 4: pack it. It's the same thing. You see the Democrats,
• 15:34
  Speaker 4: the Marxists, the Islamis, they get it. They're for power
• 15:37
  Speaker 4: and they try to do everything they can to acquire it.
• 15:41
  Speaker 4: We are on defense. We're trying to defend power versus power,
• 15:45
  Speaker 4: that is divided power, separation of power. We're trying to
• 15:47
  Speaker 4: defend the origins of our founding, which is really not
• 15:52
  Speaker 4: about powers, about God the sovereign, We the children of
• 15:56
  Speaker 4: the sovereign, and on earth where the sovereign, where the
• 15:59
  Speaker 4: people is in individuals and as a society. And then
• 16:02
  Speaker 4: we fuse that with the enlightenment which we embrace, to
• 16:06
  Speaker 4: apply that kind of sovereignty which is is Mondesquez said
• 16:10
  Speaker 4: in other's power versus power. So we we don't explain this,
• 16:15
  Speaker 4: we don't think it's through in my humble opinion, and
• 16:17
  Speaker 4: doing this all these years to just throw out, you know,
• 16:21
  Speaker 4: shibbles or something at a surface level, it isn't going
• 16:23
  Speaker 4: to do it anymore. So this is why I argue
• 16:28
  Speaker 4: that we have got to really understand we are for
• 16:32
  Speaker 4: positive power, their negative power. What does that mean? Their
• 16:35
  Speaker 4: abuse and use of language? What's the purpose thought control?
• 16:39
  Speaker 4: And so for coercion, obedience, manipulation. What do we really
• 16:44
  Speaker 4: mean by liberty in the sense of power? What do
• 16:47
  Speaker 4: we really mean by rights? And I feel with all
• 16:50
  Speaker 4: these things going on the rise of Marxism and Islamism,
• 16:53
  Speaker 4: including in our own country a far more aggressive Democrat
• 16:57
  Speaker 4: party that is unmoored completely really from our found and
• 17:02
  Speaker 4: our requirement as citizens now to teach our children and
• 17:05
  Speaker 4: grandchildren and other people what it is that we should
• 17:08
  Speaker 4: stand for because we don't get it in the schools.
• 17:10
  Speaker 4: That's the point of the book.
• 17:12
  Speaker 1: You mentioned the schools there, and look, I'm getting older
• 17:15
  Speaker 1: now I say that, and I'm not joking.
• 17:17
  Speaker 5: I'm going to hit gosh, was it forty four in
• 17:19
  Speaker 5: a couple of weeks.
• 17:20
  Speaker 1: I've got three sons, I know, right, I got twins
• 17:23
  Speaker 1: or six and a nine year old turned nine couple
• 17:25
  Speaker 1: days ago. And what terrifies me the most now is
• 17:29
  Speaker 1: the education that they're going to get from someone that
• 17:33
  Speaker 1: wants them to have the power over them, to make
• 17:36
  Speaker 1: them hate this country. You look at the report that
• 17:39
  Speaker 1: came out even last week, Mark, and it talked about
• 17:41
  Speaker 1: how the Chinese Communist Party has in essence completely infiltrated
• 17:45
  Speaker 1: our education system at the highest levels, including the ivy leagues,
• 17:49
  Speaker 1: buying access to the minds of our young people. That
• 17:53
  Speaker 1: is something that concerns me. I know, you don't have
• 17:56
  Speaker 1: to do this anymore. You could retire if you wanted to.
• 17:58
  Speaker 1: I know why you do it. You love this country.
• 18:01
  Speaker 1: It's why you write these books. But how concerned are
• 18:04
  Speaker 1: you about the abuse of power coming from other influencers
• 18:07
  Speaker 1: who are grabbing our kids' minds in the public schools
• 18:10
  Speaker 1: and also at our universities.
• 18:12
  Speaker 4: Very and when you read the chapter on language, the
• 18:16
  Speaker 4: nature of the language that's used, what's allowed to be said,
• 18:19
  Speaker 4: not allowed to be said, new words, new definition of words,
• 18:22
  Speaker 4: This whole idea of wokeism and DEI and CRT, it's
• 18:26
  Speaker 4: all intended to destroy our connection with our founders and
• 18:31
  Speaker 4: the belief system that brought us to where we are today.
• 18:34
  Speaker 4: And that's why I write these books so people have
• 18:37
  Speaker 4: relatively easy access to the information, the tools, the arguments.
• 18:42
  Speaker 4: Because we have to go around the teachers' unions, we've
• 18:44
  Speaker 4: got to go around the college faculty, we've got to
• 18:46
  Speaker 4: go around the media. We've got to inform ourselves and
• 18:48
  Speaker 4: educate ourselves. And we as parents and grandparents, we have
• 18:52
  Speaker 4: an obligation. And sometimes you'll succeed and sometimes you'll fail.
• 18:56
  Speaker 4: To try and pass this on to our kids and
• 18:59
  Speaker 4: our grand it's because they're not getting it from these institutions. Now.
• 19:04
  Speaker 4: I'm all for school choice. I think what the President
• 19:06
  Speaker 4: Trump's doing with these colleges and universities is absolutely fantastic,
• 19:12
  Speaker 4: and those that's a battle that's fought, say over here,
• 19:16
  Speaker 4: but the battle that's fought in our private lives needs
• 19:19
  Speaker 4: to be a different kind of battle. And I mean,
• 19:23
  Speaker 4: I hear young people going on about this, mondamie, why
• 19:25
  Speaker 4: don't we try socialism? What's the problem, what's the you know,
• 19:28
  Speaker 4: what's the Because they haven't been told anything, they haven't
• 19:32
  Speaker 4: experienced anything, they haven't lived in a certain circumstances that
• 19:36
  Speaker 4: tell them what's wrong with it. So we have to
• 19:38
  Speaker 4: do that. And that's what I'm trying to adjust here,
• 19:41
  Speaker 4: not just for young people, but for all people among ourselves,
• 19:45
  Speaker 4: and in terms of projecting it to other people, we're
• 19:48
  Speaker 4: going to get down to the crux of the matter.
• 19:50
  Speaker 4: If somebody says I can't afford food, and we respond
• 19:53
  Speaker 4: with liberty, it goes in one ear and out the
• 19:55
  Speaker 4: other ear. If somebody says, look this guy, mandamie, we're
• 19:59
  Speaker 4: gonna have public rice stores, and I said, well, that's great.
• 20:02
  Speaker 4: So now he'll have the power to decide whether you
• 20:04
  Speaker 4: eat or you don't eat. And he'll have the power
• 20:06
  Speaker 4: to decide what you do eat and what you don't eat.
• 20:09
  Speaker 4: Is that okay with you? Or whether your shelves are
• 20:11
  Speaker 4: filled or they're not filled, so there are ways to engage.
• 20:15
  Speaker 4: And I think when you get down to the core
• 20:18
  Speaker 4: of it, it is about the distribution of power, a
• 20:21
  Speaker 4: positive distribution or a negative distribution of power.
• 20:25
  Speaker 1: You mentioned power, and one of the things that I
• 20:27
  Speaker 1: think is very scary about where we are in twenty
• 20:30
  Speaker 1: twenty five is going back to the point you made
• 20:32
  Speaker 1: a second ago. How easily people are willing to just
• 20:36
  Speaker 1: give up their own power and say, here, government make
• 20:40
  Speaker 1: all the decisions for me. Did we get to this
• 20:43
  Speaker 1: point because we become lazy as society or is it
• 20:46
  Speaker 1: because of indoctrination in society or a little bit of both.
• 20:50
  Speaker 1: And also there's now a new culture. Let's be clear
• 20:53
  Speaker 1: that is hate America. America is evil, America is bad.
• 20:55
  Speaker 1: So therefore communism or socialism or Marxism must be tried.
• 21:01
  Speaker 4: I think these are two points and they're very good.
• 21:03
  Speaker 4: I think that first point, you know, de Tgfolk kind
• 21:05
  Speaker 4: of talked about it. When government gets involved in all
• 21:08
  Speaker 4: things small and large, you're creating a different kind of people,
• 21:12
  Speaker 4: a different kind of mentality, and you are kind of
• 21:15
  Speaker 4: reverse engineering human nature. Whereas you know you want free will,
• 21:20
  Speaker 4: certain things motivate you, and so forth. It wears you down.
• 21:23
  Speaker 4: It gets you used to subsidies, it gets you used
• 21:26
  Speaker 4: to being pounded on about what's wrong with you, what's
• 21:29
  Speaker 4: wrong with your ancestry, what's wrong with your race, that
• 21:33
  Speaker 4: sort of thing. I think the second point you raise
• 21:36
  Speaker 4: is very it's a very nefarious problem, which is the
• 21:39
  Speaker 4: poisonous leakage into our system of these ideologies that have
• 21:44
  Speaker 4: as their purpose not to compete, but to destroy not
• 21:48
  Speaker 4: even the government, the society and to destroy the culture.
• 21:52
  Speaker 4: And this is what people need to understand. We are
• 21:54
  Speaker 4: trying to defend limited government, which is very important. They're
• 21:58
  Speaker 4: destroying everything that undergo it, a civil society which comes
• 22:01
  Speaker 4: before government, and they're trying to grab control of it.
• 22:06
  Speaker 4: So they're about centralization of power, the imposition of their ideology.
• 22:11
  Speaker 4: They're about brainwashing, fear mongering, while they promise redistribution, while
• 22:18
  Speaker 4: they promise more liberty, while they you know, it's like
• 22:20
  Speaker 4: the People's Republic of China. I think they're about the
• 22:23
  Speaker 4: people or a republic. They'll take the word democracy democratic socialism.
• 22:29
  Speaker 4: Those two words are oxymorony. They don't work together. Socialism
• 22:33
  Speaker 4: about the government controlling the means of production and the
• 22:36
  Speaker 4: distribution of resources and material and wealth that has nothing
• 22:40
  Speaker 4: to do with democracy in any way. We've got to
• 22:43
  Speaker 4: challenge this, We've got to break it down and say,
• 22:45
  Speaker 4: excuse me. We're the ones who believe in participatory democracy, republicanism.
• 22:50
  Speaker 4: We're the ones who believe in the free, voluntary commercial
• 22:55
  Speaker 4: activity among people. And then we need to explain what
• 22:59
  Speaker 4: that creates. What that creates is a massive middle class
• 23:03
  Speaker 4: like no other society ever on the planet has experienced,
• 23:07
  Speaker 4: where we live better than any king or queen one
• 23:10
  Speaker 4: hundred and fifty years ago. We have more access to
• 23:12
  Speaker 4: more kinds of food. We switch a we hit a switch,
• 23:16
  Speaker 4: the lights come on, we turn a foscet on. We
• 23:18
  Speaker 4: get clean cold water, clean hot water. You have bathrooms
• 23:21
  Speaker 4: in your home. You have mobility in cars. You go
• 23:25
  Speaker 4: on a plane forty thousand feet in the air. You
• 23:28
  Speaker 4: may not like the peanuts you're getting, but think about
• 23:30
  Speaker 4: what's actually happening. You compare this. This is a result
• 23:34
  Speaker 4: of America. This is the result of a society where
• 23:38
  Speaker 4: power is distributed properly and where the individual, the individual
• 23:43
  Speaker 4: is the sovereign and the people of the sovereign. Conversely,
• 23:47
  Speaker 4: seventy percent of the world lives in tyranny and poverty,
• 23:50
  Speaker 4: and what do they have. Are they flourishing republics or democracies?
• 23:54
  Speaker 4: Do they believe in consensual government or participatory Of course not,
• 23:59
  Speaker 4: And so you have to compare something with something, not
• 24:03
  Speaker 4: something with their ideology.
• 24:06
  Speaker 1: When you wrote this book, and it's a book that
• 24:08
  Speaker 1: I would encourage you to grab by the way. If
• 24:09
  Speaker 1: you haven't read other books by Mark Levin, you should
• 24:12
  Speaker 1: grab them. They're incredible, this new one on power, exploring
• 24:16
  Speaker 1: the nature of power. It's historical use is its impact
• 24:19
  Speaker 1: on liberty and really democracy and authoritarianism and disguised as representation,
• 24:25
  Speaker 1: especially what we're witnessing in New York City with this
• 24:28
  Speaker 1: mayor Kennet there. When you were writing this book, were
• 24:32
  Speaker 1: you writing it for a specific person? Were you writing
• 24:34
  Speaker 1: it for young and oh what was your mindset when
• 24:37
  Speaker 1: you were writing it?
• 24:38
  Speaker 4: First of all, I wanted to write it differently, in
• 24:41
  Speaker 4: a way where I could take some complicated subjects and
• 24:44
  Speaker 4: make them very digestible, understandable actually find and enjoyable to read,
• 24:49
  Speaker 4: and yet challenge people's thinking or somebody might say, oh, yeah,
• 24:54
  Speaker 4: I thought about that. I never really developed my thoughts
• 24:59
  Speaker 4: on it though, that sort of thing and yeah, that's
• 25:02
  Speaker 4: a different way of putting this, and it's an important
• 25:04
  Speaker 4: way of putting it. So my view is this book
• 25:07
  Speaker 4: is written for anybody, particularly people who are trying to
• 25:11
  Speaker 4: figure out the swirl of Marxism and Islamism in our country,
• 25:16
  Speaker 4: why it's starting to take hold, how we confront it,
• 25:19
  Speaker 4: how we address it. But also, as one fellow told me,
• 25:22
  Speaker 4: it's going to give it to his kid who's going
• 25:24
  Speaker 4: into college, so they have something to counter what all
• 25:28
  Speaker 4: these professors are going to tell them. And you'll also notice,
• 25:31
  Speaker 4: Bend that the book is more compact than most of
• 25:34
  Speaker 4: my books. It's two hundred and eight pages long, and
• 25:37
  Speaker 4: again I wanted to make it accessible to anybody and everybody.
• 25:42
  Speaker 4: And so this book on power, it cuts to the chase,
• 25:45
  Speaker 4: and it explains that in fact, when you go to
• 25:49
  Speaker 4: the ancients or more modern history or today, it is
• 25:52
  Speaker 4: a constant struggle over who exercises power, how power is exercised,
• 25:58
  Speaker 4: whether power is going to be exercise by you or
• 26:02
  Speaker 4: over you. And the term that I use now to
• 26:07
  Speaker 4: describe the democrats and these Marxists and Islamis is authoritarian democrats.
• 26:14
  Speaker 4: In other words, they'll go through the voting process as
• 26:16
  Speaker 4: long as they win. But if they don't win, they'll
• 26:19
  Speaker 4: try and sabotage, you know, a Trump or Republican. They
• 26:23
  Speaker 4: will use the unelected bodies, the bureaucracy. Mostly, they created
• 26:27
  Speaker 4: these lower court federal judges that aren't in the Constitution
• 26:30
  Speaker 4: to counter or to usurp the electorate. They don't really
• 26:34
  Speaker 4: care about the electorate except if it gives them power.
• 26:36
  Speaker 4: They don't really care about the well being of the
• 26:39
  Speaker 4: average person unless they can persuade them to support them.
• 26:42
  Speaker 4: And we know this because Marxism has only killed one
• 26:45
  Speaker 4: hundred million people. You know that's pretty bad. In Islamism
• 26:49
  Speaker 4: today hasn't gone through the Reformation or the Enlightenment. It's
• 26:53
  Speaker 4: stuck in the seventh century. It's primitive, and our nation
• 26:58
  Speaker 4: was founded on Judeo Christian values. And the bottom line
• 27:02
  Speaker 4: is is Marxism or what I call American Marxism and
• 27:06
  Speaker 4: Islamism are absolutely incompatible with Americanism. And that's what the
• 27:11
  Speaker 4: other side is peddling. And this is what we need
• 27:13
  Speaker 4: to confront.
• 27:14
  Speaker 1: Speaking of power, I want to get your take on
• 27:17
  Speaker 1: what Democrats have just decided to do in Texas flee
• 27:20
  Speaker 1: the state. They have run to other states that are
• 27:23
  Speaker 1: basically advocating for socialism and communism and Marxism. You got
• 27:27
  Speaker 1: the governor of Illinois saying, come on over, will how's
• 27:30
  Speaker 1: you will love on you? YadA, YadA, YadA, And they say,
• 27:34
  Speaker 1: this is what power now looks like to the left,
• 27:37
  Speaker 1: how dangerous is that?
• 27:40
  Speaker 4: Well, this jerrymandering is is you're talking about pretty much. Yeah, yeah,
• 27:44
  Speaker 4: it's very dangerous. But let's point out I have a
• 27:48
  Speaker 4: whole chapter on language, and they're proving the point in
• 27:50
  Speaker 4: the chapter and all that people read it themselves. But
• 27:53
  Speaker 4: take a look at this the twenty twenty census. They
• 27:56
  Speaker 4: quote unquote mathematical errors which resulted in Democrats having five
• 28:01
  Speaker 4: more seats than they should have had, and the sentence
• 28:03
  Speaker 4: admits it made a mistake. So let's start at that baseline.
• 28:06
  Speaker 4: Then you look at Massachusetts. They don't have a single
• 28:10
  Speaker 4: Republican member of the House of Representatives. Then you look
• 28:13
  Speaker 4: at Maryland, they have one Republican out of eight in
• 28:16
  Speaker 4: the state of Maryland. Then you look at California fifty
• 28:19
  Speaker 4: two seats, forty three Democrats and nine Republicans. Then you
• 28:25
  Speaker 4: look at Illinois fourteen Democrats and three Republicans. And I
• 28:29
  Speaker 4: could go on and on and on. So this party,
• 28:33
  Speaker 4: the Democrat Party, it embraces Marxism, it embraces the Islamis
• 28:37
  Speaker 4: against the Israelis, it embraces propaganda of the worst sort. Again,
• 28:43
  Speaker 4: I discussed this in the chapter in the book. And
• 28:45
  Speaker 4: their purpose is what they corrupt the public debate, so
• 28:50
  Speaker 4: people don't even know what to debate. They come up
• 28:53
  Speaker 4: with slogans and repetition, which is a big deal for them,
• 28:57
  Speaker 4: like any other authoritarians do. So people get in their
• 29:00
  Speaker 4: minds that it's the Republicans are trying to steal the
• 29:03
  Speaker 4: midterm elections. They have a media behind them, and so
• 29:07
  Speaker 4: so many people who don't focus on this day in
• 29:09
  Speaker 4: and day out have no idea what's actually going on
• 29:13
  Speaker 4: except the drum beat that they hear over and over
• 29:16
  Speaker 4: and over again. So it is very dangerous what these
• 29:18
  Speaker 4: people are doing, but it has to be countered. We
• 29:21
  Speaker 4: can't just wring our hands about it. What was me?
• 29:24
  Speaker 5: What was me?
• 29:25
  Speaker 4: And the way we counter it is again we go
• 29:28
  Speaker 4: to the core of this book and rather than making
• 29:31
  Speaker 4: superficial arguments, we say they want to grab power. This
• 29:34
  Speaker 4: is why they want to grab it, and the book
• 29:36
  Speaker 4: explains why and how they do it and how to
• 29:38
  Speaker 4: respond to it.
• 29:41
  Speaker 1: All Right, I want to get to another important issue.
• 29:44
  Speaker 1: It's a big one and it's one that so many
• 29:49
  Speaker 1: Americans have, especially the media, have really really, really overlooked
• 29:56
  Speaker 1: it completely. That's part what I like to do here
• 30:01
  Speaker 1: is bring you different information that others are refusing to cover.
• 30:06
  Speaker 1: And this one is one that is really interesting because
• 30:11
  Speaker 1: the number of arrests of migrant gotaways continuing now in
• 30:16
  Speaker 1: Texas despite record low apprehensions at the border. The media
• 30:21
  Speaker 1: doesn't want you to know how many bad own brais
• 30:24
  Speaker 1: we have right now in this country. The Texas Department
• 30:27
  Speaker 1: of Public Safety troopers, the National guardsmen, and the Border
• 30:30
  Speaker 1: Patrol agents are continuing to arrest migrants to illegally cross
• 30:35
  Speaker 1: the border between the ports of entry and made their
• 30:37
  Speaker 1: way into the US interior. The Trump administration has just
• 30:41
  Speaker 1: released more info. Recent arrests include three Chinese nationals who
• 30:47
  Speaker 1: got away from the border after crossing near Mission Texas.
• 30:52
  Speaker 1: What we now know is that this was an operation
• 30:56
  Speaker 1: that Texas DPS did. They posted video to social media
• 31:00
  Speaker 1: is showing the continuing activities of the troopers, the garment
• 31:03
  Speaker 1: and Border patrol agents who despite these record low apprehensions
• 31:07
  Speaker 1: of the border said now their job is to fine
• 31:10
  Speaker 1: migrants being smuggled into the interior Texas after not being
• 31:14
  Speaker 1: apprehended at the border. Law enforcement teams, they say are
• 31:18
  Speaker 1: real problems are having facing real problems because they're going
• 31:23
  Speaker 1: after and continue to size drugs that are being smuggled
• 31:26
  Speaker 1: into Texas. You have human smuggling arrests that are are
• 31:30
  Speaker 1: are still happening each and every day. You have canine
• 31:34
  Speaker 1: teams now that are actually being able to do their
• 31:36
  Speaker 1: draw jobs by tracking and assisting US Border patrol in
• 31:40
  Speaker 1: the tracking of these drugs. We're seeing drug seizures, they said,
• 31:44
  Speaker 1: in Brownsville, Texas, stolen vehicles that are being used by
• 31:48
  Speaker 1: the cartels, and others that are being that are that
• 31:50
  Speaker 1: are grabbed in Laredo, Texas, for example. This is just
• 31:55
  Speaker 1: some of what is happening at the border. We also
• 31:59
  Speaker 1: know this past week that smugglers were sentenced to ten
• 32:01
  Speaker 1: years in prison. You've got pursuits to ranch tracks to
• 32:07
  Speaker 1: all these missions that are happening, and they're wanting people
• 32:10
  Speaker 1: to understand what's going on here now. One example that
• 32:13
  Speaker 1: was reported was on July the thirty first. One of
• 32:17
  Speaker 1: the videos they put out show border Patrol mounted patroled
• 32:20
  Speaker 1: teams tracking migrants in Duval County, Texas. The team tracked
• 32:24
  Speaker 1: the illegal alien to attempt to escape by using thick
• 32:27
  Speaker 1: brushes cover. That's where the Texas DPSK nine team managed
• 32:31
  Speaker 1: to apprehend the two legal aliens and turn them over
• 32:33
  Speaker 1: to Border patrol agents.
• 32:35
  Speaker 5: Now, they weren't able.
• 32:36
  Speaker 1: To do this type of work before because they were
• 32:39
  Speaker 1: babysitting illegal immigrants at the border under the Biden administration.
• 32:43
  Speaker 1: Earlier on Thursday, for example, they reported the arrests of
• 32:46
  Speaker 1: these three Chinese nationals that were apprehended your Mission Texas
• 32:50
  Speaker 1: after clearing the border without encountering a border patrol agent.
• 32:53
  Speaker 1: And this is part of the problem. Now the troopers say,
• 32:57
  Speaker 1: we're getting to do our jobs. Now they were to
• 32:59
  Speaker 1: stop the and smuggling attempts. Last week, also in Dement County, Texas,
• 33:04
  Speaker 1: they pulled over a Florida driver. The troopers fround two
• 33:07
  Speaker 1: Mexican nationals illegally president in the US, hiding in the
• 33:09
  Speaker 1: rear cargo area of the suv. Again, another example of
• 33:13
  Speaker 1: the bad own braids that we're talking about. On July third,
• 33:17
  Speaker 1: for example, it was reported the arrest of ten illegal
• 33:20
  Speaker 1: aliens in near mission. These included four migrants from Uzbekistan.
• 33:25
  Speaker 1: Now why does that matter, Well, it's a hotbed for terrorism.
• 33:28
  Speaker 1: That's one of the big concerns here is that how
• 33:31
  Speaker 1: many people have come in this country illegally that are
• 33:34
  Speaker 1: terrorists and wanting to do things and do real harm
• 33:37
  Speaker 1: inside the United States of America. Now, in June, to
• 33:41
  Speaker 1: put this in perspective of where we are now because
• 33:44
  Speaker 1: of a strong border security from this President Donald Trump,
• 33:49
  Speaker 1: border patrol agents apprehended three thousand, nine hundred and ninety
• 33:53
  Speaker 1: five migrants who illegally crossed the border into five Texas baseds.
• 34:01
  Speaker 1: Let me just explain to you the difference between June
• 34:04
  Speaker 1: of this year and June of twenty twenty four, when
• 34:07
  Speaker 1: Joe Biden was like, everybody, come in, we have an
• 34:10
  Speaker 1: open border. They caught thirty thousand, seven hundred and sixty
• 34:16
  Speaker 1: six compared to three nine hundred and ninety five one
• 34:19
  Speaker 1: year apart.
• 34:20
  Speaker 5: What changed? A president that is enforcing the law.
• 34:25
  Speaker 1: The Southwest Land border encounters that were reported and published
• 34:30
  Speaker 1: by the US Customs and Border Protection said, this is
• 34:33
  Speaker 1: now going back to a point that we can manage
• 34:36
  Speaker 1: and protect the border. Compared to what it was now
• 34:39
  Speaker 1: if you do the math on that, this represents a
• 34:42
  Speaker 1: drop of now more than eighty seven.
• 34:44
  Speaker 5: Percent year over year.
• 34:47
  Speaker 1: The June apprehension numbers are also down from five four
• 34:51
  Speaker 1: hundred ninety one migrants apprehended in May. So this is
• 34:54
  Speaker 1: also sending a message around the world you probably don't
• 34:57
  Speaker 1: want to try because you're going to get caught. And
• 34:59
  Speaker 1: it's not an open border that we had under the
• 35:03
  Speaker 1: radicals in the Biden regime. Border apprehensions in the Texas
• 35:08
  Speaker 1: based sectors in June accounted for approximately sixty six percent
• 35:14
  Speaker 1: of all migrants apprehended along the southern border with Mexico.
• 35:18
  Speaker 1: Nearly four thousand, six hundred migrants were apprehended in all
• 35:23
  Speaker 1: nine border patrol sectors along the southwest border in July
• 35:28
  Speaker 1: that mark she had another historic low for the Trump administration.
• 35:33
  Speaker 1: So Christyome put it out this way, and she said
• 35:35
  Speaker 1: in her tweet where she was going through all these
• 35:38
  Speaker 1: numbers and again, why is the media not telling you
• 35:40
  Speaker 1: how safe the border has become? Because they don't want
• 35:44
  Speaker 1: you to know this? Okay, history made again is how
• 35:48
  Speaker 1: Christy Nome put it. The numbers don't lie. This the
• 35:51
  Speaker 1: most secure the border has ever been. President Donald Trump
• 35:55
  Speaker 1: didn't just manage the crisis, he obliterated it. No more excuses,
• 36:00
  Speaker 1: Ynomes said, no more releases. We put the cartels on
• 36:04
  Speaker 1: defense and taken our border back. She then said, in
• 36:08
  Speaker 1: July the lowest nationwide encounter number ever twenty four thousand,
• 36:14
  Speaker 1: six hundred and thirty. That is down two point four
• 36:17
  Speaker 1: percent from June. But here's the number that you're going
• 36:20
  Speaker 1: to care about. It's ninety percent lower than the monthly
• 36:24
  Speaker 1: average under the last administration. The lowest border patrol apprehensions
• 36:29
  Speaker 1: nationwide also six thousand, one hundred and seventy seven. That shattered,
• 36:35
  Speaker 1: by the way, June's all time low as well. She
• 36:39
  Speaker 1: went on to say, this the lowest Southwest border apprehensions
• 36:43
  Speaker 1: we've ever seen, four thousand, five hundred and ninety eight,
• 36:46
  Speaker 1: nearly five hundred fewer than the daily average under the
• 36:50
  Speaker 1: last administration, which averaged five thousand, one hundred and ten
• 36:55
  Speaker 1: apprehensions per day from February of twenty twenty one to
• 36:58
  Speaker 1: December of twenty twenty four. We also have the lowest
• 37:02
  Speaker 1: daily apprehension average, just one hundred and forty eight per day.
• 37:05
  Speaker 1: That's lower than the average rate of one hundred and
• 37:09
  Speaker 1: fifty two apprehensions every two hours under the Biden administration
• 37:14
  Speaker 1: last July alone. So we're doing one hundred and forty
• 37:18
  Speaker 1: eight a day in apprehensions. They were doing one hundred
• 37:21
  Speaker 1: and fifty two every two hours, every hour of the
• 37:25
  Speaker 1: day twenty four to seven last July. And then she
• 37:29
  Speaker 1: finally says, this the lowest single day apprehensions in history
• 37:34
  Speaker 1: eighty eight at the Southwest border, one hundred and sixteen
• 37:37
  Speaker 1: nationwide on July the twentieth. Now look at the calendar
• 37:40
  Speaker 1: right now and where we are. What you're hearing and
• 37:43
  Speaker 1: what we're seeing from border patrol agents and from the
• 37:47
  Speaker 1: Trump administration is that the word is getting out. Do
• 37:51
  Speaker 1: you really want to go into incredible debt to try
• 37:54
  Speaker 1: to come to America to immediately get caught and then
• 37:56
  Speaker 1: be sent home? Do you want to pay these smugglers
• 37:59
  Speaker 1: to get you in and you're going to get caught?
• 38:02
  Speaker 1: You look at the lowest single day apprehension in history
• 38:04
  Speaker 1: eighty eighth the Southwest border.
• 38:06
  Speaker 5: And one hundred and sixteen nation one on July twentieth.
• 38:08
  Speaker 1: Now I say that because you may say, well, okay,
• 38:11
  Speaker 1: hold on, maybe there was a bad weather day. No,
• 38:13
  Speaker 1: it wasn't It was actually a great weather day. Why
• 38:17
  Speaker 1: nay On July twentieth, did you have these numbers drop
• 38:20
  Speaker 1: that much? Because that's the last day we have reported
• 38:23
  Speaker 1: and public access to. What Donald Trump is doing is
• 38:26
  Speaker 1: he's going after and using ICE and they're going after
• 38:28
  Speaker 1: the illegal immigrants everywhere they are, including sanctuary cities. Word
• 38:34
  Speaker 1: is getting back to the smugglers and the human traffickers
• 38:37
  Speaker 1: and those that were paying them that it may not
• 38:40
  Speaker 1: be worth you paying them because you're probably not going
• 38:43
  Speaker 1: to make it. And that is how Trump is making
• 38:46
  Speaker 1: America safe again.
• 38:49
  Speaker 5: Don't forget.
• 38:50

• 38:53
