    On WednesdayÆs Mark Levin Show, thereÆs a drone infestation in the Northeast and the government says they donÆt know whatÆs going on. How can the FBI, the FAA, the Air Force, and NASA not know who owns these drones? This seems like some kind of cover-up. Rep Chris Smith calls in and explains that these
    drones are not harmless. They are probably either from China, Iran, or
    Russia. Why is the Biden administration not authorizing a team to see where these drones are going? Also, Antony Blinken was testifying and said that no one was left behind in Afghanistan. We all know thatÆs not true. Thanks to Benjamin Netanyahu, not President Biden and Blinken, the mass murderer in Syria ran off to Moscow. Netanyahu has saved more lives than Biden could
    dream of. Now, Biden is trying to take credit for NetanyahuÆs weakening of Iran. Later, Sen Elizabeth Warren said æyou can only push people so farÆ regarding the assassination of the UnitedHealth CEO. This is an unbelievable statement. Warren sounds like the violent Hamas supporters in the streets.

    Rough transcription of Hour 1

    Segment 1
    Hello America. Mark Levin here. Our number 877-381-3811. Hello 877-381-3811. ItÆs apparently a drone infestation in the northeast. Originally, I thought they were talking about Kamala Harris supporters. You know, I call leftist drones. But thereÆs a lot of stuff in the sky and some of itÆs pretty big and theyÆre flying around and people point their flashlight, theyÆre shining
    their light, their lights off. Are you going to tell me? That the Federal Bureau of Investigation. Are you going to tell me that the FAA. Are you going to tell me that the United States Air Force. Are you going to tell me now? So youÆre going to tell me all these entities that we have? Some are law enforcement, some are military, some are just plain scientific. They donÆt
    know what the hellÆs going on, but they do know itÆs not the enemy. Well, if itÆs not a foreign enemy. Then somebody is doing it for fun. So who is it? Or our governmentÆs doing it now. Which is it? The idea that we donÆt have any idea on what the hell is going on is preposterous. You know what we call
    this? ItÆs very simple. ItÆs some kind of a cover up. ItÆs some kind of a
    cover up. Now. My guess has been the Communist Chinese. I could be wrong. But how complicated is this? Seriously? These are drones. Now you can go buy
    drones off the shelf at some stores. Some of these are huge military like drones. Well, you canÆt buy those off the shelf, can you? Some of these
    drones are as big as helicopters. TheyÆre telling us, Mr. Producer, you canÆt just buy that at Best Buy, can you? But donÆt worry, itÆs not the Islam or
    Nazi regime in Tehran. DonÆt worry. ItÆs not the communist Chinese genocidal murders in Beijing. DonÆt worry. IÆm worried. What the hell is it? IÆll tell you what IÆm worried about. Either. We donÆt know what it is or thereÆs a
    cover up and theyÆre not telling us. And I think itÆs the latter. And we have members of Congress who are rightly angry saying, Hey, we keep asking you in the bureaucracy what the hellÆs going on? And youÆre stiff arming us. They donÆt have the right to stiff arm members of Congress. And we will have our friend Chris Smith. Republican congressman from New Jersey, the longest serving, I might add, on the program. HeÆs very good at trying to get to the bottom of these sorts of things, having dealt with the bureaucracy for
    decades. But itÆs utterly unacceptable. So Jeff Van Drew, whoÆs really a good guy. He represents South Jersey. Atlantic City. Vineland. Really a diverse area. Was a Democrat. He likes Trump. He flipped the switch to Republican. He gets re-elected. HeÆs a good guy. So he says, IÆve got sources and IÆll tell you what my sources tell me. Cut. Then go. And from very high sources. Very qualified sources. Very responsible sources. IÆm going to tell you the real deal. Iran launched a mother ship probably about a month ago that contains these drones. That mothership is off the air. IÆm going to tell you the deal. ItÆs off the East Coast of the United States of America. TheyÆve launched drones and everything that we can see here. And again, these are from high sources. I donÆt say this lightly. Now, you know, we know there was a probability it could have been our own government. We know itÆs not our own government because they would have let us know. It could have been some
    really glorified hobbyist or hobbyist that weÆre doing something
    unbelievable. They donÆt have the technology. But letÆs pretend thatÆs possible. The third possibility was somebody, an adversarial country doing this. You know that Iran made a deal with China to purchase drones,
    motherships and technology in order to go forward. The sources I have are
    good. They canÆt reveal who they are because they are speaking to me in confidentiality. These drones should be shot down. Whether it was some crazy hobbyist that we canÆt imagine or whether it is Iran, and I think it very possibly could be they should be shot down. We are not getting the full deal and the military is on alert with us. Yeah, we are not getting the truth. I donÆt think itÆs a hobbyist. With swarming drones, Mr. is. 1220 at a time at some hobbyists, the military to hire that guy. But I donÆt think so. Time
    will tell. But this administration is opaque. This administration is
    constantly keeping the American people, we the people in the dark here. And then we have Sabrina Singh. She is one of the lawyers for the regime. SheÆs their deputy Pentagon press secretary. And she dismisses Jeff Van Drew cut 17 go. Representative Jeff Van Drew, who is a Republican from New Jersey, was
    just on the air saying that Iran launched a mother ship probably about a
    month ago that contains these drones and that that mothership is off the
    coast of the East Coast of the United States. Is there any truth to that?
    There is not any truth to that. There is no Iranian ship off the coast of the United States and thereÆs no so-called mothership launching. So are there any weather balloons flying around that are actually communist Chinese spy balloons? What about that, Mr. Producer? I donÆt trust them. I donÆt trust them. Well, if itÆs not an Iranian mother ship and itÆs not a ship at all and itÆs not a foreign threat, how do they know all these things? How do they
    know all these things? Crazy. Go ahead. So United States and there is no so- called mothership launching drones to the United States. Well, who is? I
    donÆt know. Well, how do you know that? I donÆt know. It is time for the
    Trump administration to take over here and get to the bottom of this stuff. Then we have Robert Wheeler, junior senior FBI official, at a hearing yesterday. Could 18 go? Is the public at risk? Is public safety at risk? Are
    we concerned that there are nefarious intentions that could cause either national security or a public safety incident that would put Americans at
    risk? There is nothing that is known that would lead me to say that. But we just donÆt know. And thatÆs the concerning part. Now, that is one of the most irrational sentences IÆve ever heard, Mr. Producer. ThereÆs nothing that is known that would lead me to say that, but we just donÆt know. And thatÆs the concerning part. So you donÆt have any foggy idea. ThatÆs what you should
    say? I donÆt the foggiest idea. Wow. This is amazing. These are drones.
    TheyÆre not like supersonic hypersonic devices. So IÆm sitting here thinking
    to myself, If itÆs true that we canÆt figure this out, and I donÆt believe it is, but if it is true. How the hell are we ever going to defend our subs against far more sophisticated weaponry than drones, for GodÆs sakes? How. I donÆt know. But this is preposterous. And I want the people in New Jersey to know the rest of the country. We stand with you. And thereÆs droning and scandal. And itÆs really a scandal because itÆs one of two things. ItÆs
    either our government or itÆs a foreign government, and I think itÆs the latter. And the weasels in the White House donÆt want to do anything about it any more than they wanted to do anything about that weather balloon.
    Remember, people said, shoot the damn thing down. ItÆs the communist Chinese. TheyÆre spying on our nuclear sites. TheyÆre spying on our. Our missile systems. ThatÆs why we canÆt be sure. You know, itÆs like. ItÆs like the Hindenburg flying up there. ItÆs so massive. We canÆt be sure what it is. But we know what it is. And so how much longer does this go on? ItÆs crazy. You know, in the good old days, the American citizen would shoot these damn
    things out of the sky, Mr. Producer. But today you would get, you know, a 15, 20 year sentence. If you dare to try and do anything like that, IÆll be right back.

    Segment 2
    If this Pete Hegseth nomination is turned around and it looks like itÆs happening, still a ways to go with the hearings itself or itÆs thanks to you. ItÆs thanks to you once again, the audience and talk radio has early ignored the audience in this program. In every direction. Even our friends at
    Breitbart just did this. We had a call to action. You folks stepped up. We
    name names. We told you about Joni Ernst and her campaign. We told you we
    heard from a bit on Capitol Hill at Mar a Lago. Lindsey Graham, a frequent guest on many of our friends shows. We criticized him. We called him out. You folks responded to that in a very beautiful and patriotic way, as you always do. You always do. And youÆre just under appreciated. Not by me. ThatÆs for sure. I appreciate you all. YouÆre fantastic, but youÆre under appreciated
    even by conservative outlets. ItÆs really quite shocking. And. Same thing on Fox on Saturday, we had a call for action, the entire monologue Sunday, also relating to Cash Patel and of course, a strong defense of President Trump. He called me on Monday and thanked me. And he also mentioned the Saturday
    defense of Hegseth. So weÆre out there. WeÆre doing our thing. Lesser known. Pretend weÆre not lesser known. We tend to. Well. Whatever they want doesnÆt matter to us. WeÆre involved in action. WeÆre involved in the mission. This
    is what we do. This is what weÆve always done. And we wonÆt stop. Afghanistan at the hearing in the House of Representatives today. Brian Mast Brian Mast
    is a great hero. HeÆs a great hero as a combat veteran, but heÆs a great representative. IÆm so proud to have him as my congressman in Florida. Just terrific. And here he is at a hearing on Afghanistan today. And this is important. This is important. Cut five. Go. We are still giving the Taliban tens of billions of dollars. ThereÆs an American citizen out there literally woke up this morning losing 30% of their paycheck, and a good percentage of that is going to the Taliban or other programs abroad. And this is something that we all need to think about and we will be thinking about deeply for the next two years. ThereÆs a joke thatÆs made often out there about kids going
    to college to learn basket weaving and what a joke that would be. But the United States right now is literally sending tens of millions of dollars to
    the Taliban. 14.9 million, to be exact, to teach Afghans how to do carpet weaving. LetÆs think about that. We are giving. $280 million to the United Nations to do cash transfers for food in Afghanistan. Yet. WeÆre not sending
    an ear of corn from Iowa, a sack of potatoes from Idaho, or a cucumber or an orange from Florida. And that discounts the fact that thereÆs no American tonnage going through our ports to send those things out of here either. ItÆs just cash transfers. Another line item, these are directly from SIGAR reports $75 million to teach Afghan women to be farmers. I donÆt believe that we
    spend $30 million in the United States of America to teach women to be
    farmers. My colleague Mr. Wilson, brought up that they canÆt even dance in
    the streets or speak to one other or go to school. IÆm not sure that we can trust that that $75 million is being used to teach them agriculture. And as
    you pointed out, we donÆt have any diplomats on the ground to confirm the validity of these programs. HereÆs one that I was entirely curious about, and maybe you could explain it to me. Three and a half billion dollars
    transferred to the Afghan fund that has tended to protect the macro financial stability on behalf of the Afghan people. What the hell does that mean? Can
    you tell me? I donÆt know. ThatÆs a bunch of gibberish to me. Hmm. Hmm. Hmm hmm. You see, trader trainer Anthony Blinken was testifying today. We said, what about all these people weÆve left behind in Afghanistan? You wonÆt
    believe this. ItÆs like the border secure that. We heard that for three
    years. Listen to this. Cut sex go first. Did we leave people behind? No. We
    got them out, including after the deadline of our evacuation. By the time we got to August 31st, we had a liar. HeÆs such a disgusting liar. This guy is. ItÆs worse than his fungal. He just is. We got all our people out. We all
    know thatÆs not true. We all know thatÆs not true. As a matter of fact, we
    know thatÆs not true. And there he is. Go ahead. Several hundred Americans
    who were left who identified themselves to us as wanting to leave but could
    not get to or into the airport. I committed to make sure we got them out. And between the evacuees at the end of the evacuation and the end of the year, we got the 500 remaining Americans out who either then or after August 31st identified themselves as wanting to leave. We made good on that commitment, telling the embassy to remain open. Yes, we all wanted the embassy to remain open. It was fully our expectation that the Afghan government and thatÆs enough. I canÆt even stand this guy affectation his voice. But Mike Lawlor lights into this guy. Cut, Sam and go. Have you read this report in full? I have read the executive summary of the report. I havenÆt read the entire
    report yet. IÆve read the executive summary. I hope that you will take this copy with you on your flight to the Middle East and read it, because this is your legacy. This is your legacy, starting with the disastrous withdrawal in Afghanistan that resulted in the death of 13 U.S. service members creating 13 goals. IÆm going to stop here. I only have a minute left. This this deserves more than a minute. And I didnÆt realize that. So weÆre going to wait until after the break to play this clip. Sorry, folks. TheyÆre talking about the withdrawal from Afghanistan. You know, theyÆve been waiting forever to get
    this Blinken in front of this committee because heÆs so busy. And heÆs
    already putting out feelers out there about recognizing the new government in Syria. You know, the terrorists. This guy is sick. This guy was never
    qualified to be secretary of state. John McCain was 100% correct. When we
    come back, weÆll start that from the beginning. IÆll be right back.

    Segment 3
    All right, letÆs lock this down, baby, and then weÆll move on. But it is important. Afghanistan needs to be remembered and what took place there and
    who did what. HereÆs Representative Lawler. With the traitor Anthony Blinken behind the microphone in front of him. Go. Have you read this report in full?
    I have read the executive summary of the report. I havenÆt read the entire report yet. I read the executive summary. I hope that you will take this copy with you on your flight to the Middle East and read it, because this is your legacy. This is your legacy, starting with the disastrous withdrawal in Afghanistan that resulted in the death of 13 U.S. service members. Creating
    13 Gold Star families. Family is our vice president hasnÆt even been bothered to meet with. Then the Russian invasion of Ukraine. The terrorist attack on Israel, the illicit oil trade between China and Iran to the tune of $200 billion under your watch. That is what is funding Hamas, Hezbollah, the
    Houthis and other terror networks in the region. China threatening Taiwan.
    This is your legacy. And this stems from this disastrous withdrawal. So I
    hope you read the report in full and reflect upon that. You talk about the
    Doha agreement. ItÆs conditions based. This administration had no problem reversing policy decisions that it disagreed with President Trump on. In
    fact, Joe Biden. Revoked 94 executive orders. To open up our southern border and create an absolute calamity. 70,000 Americans die every year from
    fentanyl overdose. As this administration has allowed fentanyl to pour into
    our country drug trafficking, gangs, human trafficking, women and children being sold into prostitution. Not a care in the world. No. This is the
    legacy. So donÆt sit here and tell us, having not read the report, that you disagree with it or itÆs not true. Saying to my colleague from Florida, Oh, itÆs not true. We left people in Israel after October 7th. It most certainly is. I had constituents calling in a full fledged panic and we called the
    State Department and weÆre told there is nothing we can do. DonÆt tell us
    that that didnÆt happen. Hmm. This administration. Had no problem trying to renegotiate the Iran nuclear deal. No problem lifting sanctions on Iran, allowing for the illicit oil trade. So when you say that the previous administration negotiated the Doha agreement and therefore we were bound by
    it. That is complete and utter bullshit. Now you know it. You? Absolutely. If deep and well being. Of American citizens. And to make sure what happened did not in Afghanistan. Yeah. Mr. Secretary, on August 26, 2021, who was the president of the United States? Joe Biden. On August 26, 2021, Who was the secretary of state? I was. Okay. Take responsibility. DonÆt shirk in your responsibilities. DonÆt try to shift blame. The reality is you guys allowed
    the conditions on the ground to deteriorate. You did not hold the Taliban to account. And as a result, 13 U.S. service members are dead. And the world is
    a tinderbox. LetÆs letÆs stop this. I think itÆs very important that you hear this. Because hereÆs finally Blinken in front of a committee. Being told what
    a disaster he is and what he and Biden have done to our country and the
    people in this country and other countries, itÆs very, very important. I
    mean, I could fire through in 32nd soundbites this issue that. No, this is important. Go ahead. Precarious place since the lead up to World War Two.
    That is your legacy. Period. Full stop. And if Israel listened to this administration and didnÆt go into Gaza and didnÆt go into the south. Sinwar would still be alive. And if Israel listened to this administration,
    Nasrallah would still be alive. And Assad would still be in power in Syria.
    And Iran would be stronger than ever. That is your legacy. This Congress has passed the Ship Act and the Abraham Accords Special envoy. You didnÆt fill
    the special envoy and you didnÆt enforce the ship Act. YouÆve had over a year to do both. That is your legacy. You leave the world worse off today than it was when you inherited. GentlemanÆs time has expired. Well, I enjoy reading. Sure enough, Rich. ThatÆs enough. Thank you. IÆm saying, ladies and
    gentlemen, that that was really a a tour de force. That was a tour de force. And confronting the secretary of state. And laying out his disastrous foreign policy. You donÆt get to see that very often. You donÆt get to hear that very often. And yet this did take place today. And IÆm betting. It wasnÆt on TV. I havenÆt been watching TV, wasnÆt on much radio, but it was very, very important. And IÆm proud of him for doing that because it needed to be laid
    out because theyÆre now theyÆre taking credit for Assad being gone. TheyÆre taking credit for Iran being weak. TheyÆre taking credit for Hezbollah nearly defeated, Hamas nearly defeated. ItÆs sickening watching these people. When
    it was Netanyahu who did it. And Netanyahu, they tried to destroy an 18 Democrats three weeks ago in the Senate, tried to vote to cut all arms off
    from Israel. I want you to think about something, America. Thanks to
    Netanyahu. The mass murder who killed 600,000 of his own people in Syria is gone. He ran off to Moscow. Not thanks to buy, not thanks to Blinken. So
    whoÆs the humanitarian here? Netanyahu. WhoÆs the person that that saved more lives and Biden could have possibly even dreamed it was Netanyahu. It was his foreign policy. It was his military policy. It was his government. And thank God it was his steel backbone resisting these buffoons, these fools, these Keystone cops. That made it possible. Netanyahu. And by the way, to show you how screwed up IsraelÆs judicial system is. As I speak, this man is in a courtroom defending himself against preposterous allegations about cigars, champagne and the media. In the middle of a war on eight fronts. Their statesmen leader. Not only is the deal with the ICC, not only has to deal
    with the U.N., not only has to deal with the Biden regime in our. Crazy ass Department of State. Got to deal with his own judiciary. And theyÆre out of control. Attorney General. Over cigars and champagne and the media. Now, by
    the way. The two main state witnesses involving cigars and champagne and the media. And now turned on the government. TheyÆve turned on the prosecutors. Even the judge thought, well, you might want to drop one of these cases and they refuse to do it. So theyÆre loaded with Alvin Bragg types over there, their radical left wing kooks. In our judicial system, in their prosecutorial system over there. It is bizarre how much power. Are these buffoons actually have? What it is. Netanyahu, in effect, who has saved the people of Syria.
    ItÆs Netanyahu. Netanyahu will liberate the people in Lebanon. Who will liberate the people in Gaza. ItÆs Netanyahu. Who? One day. Hopefully working with President Trump will liberate the people of Iran. What comes after. No
    one can know. No one can predict. Nobody can control. But thatÆs the truth.
    And this is Netanyahu that theyÆve had a smear campaign against for years.
    This is Netanyahu. The vice president would even go to the joint session of Congress. They introduce him for his historic speech. This is the Netanyahu who? Bernie Sanders, a Marxist Stalinist S.O.B.. In about half of the
    Democrat Party. Demanded be removed. Even Schumer. Busy trying to undo
    himself, who is a complete fraud and a phony and a fool. Give that horrendous speech that will be remembered. Because it was horrendous demanding that Netanyahu step down. It is this regime in our country and their party. That tried to overthrow an elected prime minister of an ally democratic state. And they want to take credit. You see. They want to take credit for whatÆs happening. That Iran is weak, IranÆs weak because IsraelÆs strong. And as we explained here, thanks to the story broken by the Free Beacon, $10 billion
    went into the pockets of the Islamo Nazi regime in Tehran three weeks after TrumpÆs election, while at the same time theyÆre boycotting weapons from
    Israel even as I speak. Even as I speak, sick. And getting sicker. IÆll be right back.

    Segment 4
    You know, the immigration figures, I should say the illegal immigration figures. TheyÆre worse than you think. Over PJ Media. Rick Moran You arenÆt going to believe the number of migrants whoÆve entered the U.S. since 2021. WeÆve known for years the number of migrants entering the U.S. during Joe BidenÆs term was massive. Believe it or not, New York Times reporters work
    with government officials and outside experts to quote unquote, analyze the magnitude of the recent immigration surge in the United States. Notice they
    do it when itÆs too late. They do it after the election and after itÆs all occurred rather than before the election, well before the election. So the American people could have the information and try and get their representatives to actually do something about it. They were the results are nothing short of mind blowing. Quote The immigration surge since 2021 has
    been the largest in U.S. history, surpassing even the levels of the late
    1800s and early 1900s. Total net migration. The number of people coming to
    the country, minus the number of leaving, will likely exceed 8 million people over the past four years. I would argue 20 million. But what do I know? Government statistics suggest the number includes both legal and illegal immigration begins the analysis and all those got away. According to data
    from the Census Bureau and the Congressional Budget Office, net migration has never been anywhere close to 2 million for an extended period of time, and weÆre at 8 million, according to this report. Annual net migration. The
    number of people coming to the country, minus the number leaving, averaged
    2.4 million from 2021 to 2023. According to the CBO, total net migration
    during the Biden administration is likely to exceed 8 million people. ThatÆs
    a faster pace of arrival of arrivals than during any period on record, including the peak years of Ellis Island traffic, when millions and millions
    of Europeans came to the United States. Even after taking into account
    todayÆs larger population. The recent surge is the most rapid since at least 1850. ThereÆs our buddy Brian KILMEADE on Fox. Mister Producer. HeÆs got to
    be on Fox at least four times a day. No, IÆm just saying it. Goldman Sachs report based on government data shows that 60% ready, 60% of the 8 million people entered the U.S. Senator Biden were illegal. This is. Such a
    diabolical thing, what he and the Democrats have done to our country for
    their own power. ItÆs so diabolical. The increase in combined legal and
    illegal immigrants has caused the share of foreign born U.S. residents to hit
    a record 15.2% of the population in America. Foreign born residents in 2023,
    up from 13.6% in 2020. The previous high for foreign born U.S. residents was 14.8% in 1890. WeÆre a nation that says if you want to flee and youÆre
    fleeing oppression, you should come, Biden said during his 2020 presidential campaign. And once in office, he said he wanted a safe, orderly and humane immigration system. ThatÆs certainly not what we have. 325,000 missing unaccompanied children, women sold into sex slavery and pornography and
    raped. On the way, he loosened the rules on asylum, allowing ordinary border jumpers to claim they were oppressed and getting a five year line to await judgment by an immigration judge. And, of course, they never show up. Immigrants from several countries receive Temporary protected status, which allows immigrants to live and work in the U.S.. Waiver after waiver of immigration law was granted, allowing hundreds of thousands of people in the U.S.. Biden took most of these actions to alleviate the crush at the southern border. These actions include not vetting sponsors who showed up to take unaccompanied children to Lord knows where. For some, the new Lord knows
    what. These actions werenÆt taken out of compassion. They were done to
    minimize the visuals at the border of thousands of immigrants trying to enter the United States. This is sick. I donÆt want to hear about Democrats. What about dividing families? This needs to be shoved down their damn throats.
    IÆll be right back.
