woman. i wish you did too mr. president. thank you for spending part of your sunday with us, i hope you have a great week ahead, good night from south carolina. ♪ ♪ mark: hello america welcome, i am mark levin, this is "life, liberty and levin." two great guests, congressman jim jordan, later pollster john mclaughlin. jim jordan and i are two best men on television. >> certainly you are.

>> all right. let's jump into this. i want to talk about january 6 but not the whole show. you have a committee operating where the republican chose nobody. which has made it clear through leaks and public statements by various members, that the goal is de troy destroy donald trump, the media are in. some people in this commit same people involved in russia collusion, and lied to american people in my view to lose law licenses, and conspired with fbi and members of media. and who brought trumped-up charges on two impeachment causes, pushed hard for appointment of a special prosecutor to conduct a criminal investigation that went nowhere. no they are concerned about what happened to the capitol building on january 6. so am i am you had some people who breached the

building, okay. you had some people who were violent in the building, okay. so how did that happen? how would you know how that happened, and how would donald trump know? and how would any of people they are subpoenaing know. it would be nancy pelosi who knows, she was offered national guardsmen, before she called federal law enforcement stormtroopers, she said she does not like optics of bringing in national guard, what the hell did nancy pelosi do on january 4, 5, and 6. >> when you spend a summer of 2020 li -- legitimizing criminal behavior. you call them peace fill protests. it is tough then to do what you know you should have done. which is have the capitol secure and make the offer from the white house, which was to have national guard troops, she did not do

that, and benny thomson, said she is off limits, they will not talk to speaker of house about security postsure that day. -- posture that day. because it is, as you point out this is about president trump. they don't want him to run, i want him to run, i know you want him to run, and i think that american people do. if he runs he will win. this political, american people see it for what it is. and i think that truth will win out in the end. trey: what you tell us is that as far as we can tell, nancy pelosi's texts, her e-mails and documents, will never be uncovered as long as the democrats control the house, and never be compelled to testify under oath under penalty and perjury about when she knew. it is her responsibility to protect the house of

representatives, she is involved with those things. but when the were you ready? fbi knew people were coming, norfolk office knew, nypd knew they gave that idea to fbi director wray who seems to be sleeping on his job. the memo was on his desk for 4 days, he never got around to it. but, donald trump offered the national guard. ? you offer the national guard, to protect the capitol building, then how you can be responsible for a quote, unquote insurrection? >> it makes no sense. but nothing the democrats say makes much sense, they have closed capitol, allowed proxy voting, kicked republicans off committee, won't let republicans serve on committee and trying to en filibuster and pack the court, yet they

say donald trump is drying undermine democracy, you cannot make this stuff up, we have conflicting testimony, head of capitol hill police said he talked to sergeant at arms about a national guard there, police chief said that head of sergeant of arms said that pelosi's office do not like the optics national guards, you have conflicting testimony. guess when one has been willing to testify and turnover the documents, the one who said he asked for national guard, the other because speaker office will not let him has not turned over the documents requested by the republican, that is directly senator to the sense abser to what happened that day. day. mark: lead me ask you, we have a weird way of grouping people together. justice system to be based on actions or lack there are of an individual, when you

are charged, you are charged as an individual, maybe participating in group activity. so when people say that people on january 6, who stormed the capitol building, x,y, z is there a difference between someone who stormed the capitol building and attacks a a cop. someone parading on the grass of the capitol or trespassing in the parking lot, they are different issues with different human beings, we have 700 or so people who have been charged with god knows what. and everyone is thrown together. as if they were beating up the police. we can remember this, january 6, and never forget it. is this the sort of thing that framers of the constitution were concerned

about, general warrants and accusations against groups? they have due process, equal protection. individuals are to be treated at individuals, yet they have lumped everyone together, trump supporters and they everyone is guilty. >> a great point. remember, that is the left today, that control the democrat party. this is how they view things. go 3 weeks ago, when joe biden gave a speak in georgia, he said, that half of the nation was terrible and racist that same day, that very day we learn justice department set up a domestic terrorism uyet on unit we learned that department of education went first when first to school board association asking them to write the litter about parents -- letter about parents to have pretext to do what biden administration

wanted to do to go after moms and dads who were speaking against career critical race theory. that is today's left they want to use power of the government against their political component, across the board, attack on first amendment, second amendment and moms and dads. as you point out it is wrong, it is wrong as wrong can be, against our constitution and against how our government is to work. in these united states. mark: during the kavanaugh hearings, capitol building was breached by individuals who went to senate judiciary committee hearing, on many occasions and disrupted the senate confirmation hearings, they got support from they would be in the elevates and intimidate the senators. do you remember them round z

up as a group before they could have a trial, i don't remember that. >> tony i don't know remember that either or when wisconsin state house was taken over, or using the same language when 100 days straight there was a season on federal court building in port landing, oregon. there is always a double standard. the american people see it for what it is, i really do believe, i am not over confident, but i real think that we'll take back the house this november. i think the american people have had it with everything about the biden administration. everything they have touched has been wrong. they have done is wrong, and every policy is wrong. and all of the strange things happen when they attack our liberties. >> 1954, there were 4 puerto

rican separatist in house gallery and shot 5 members of congress. one was very badly wounded. four -- all of them were pardoned by jimmy carter, in 1971 the weather under ground blew up a room in the capitol building, they went back for good measure in 1983. but also the next year they blew up a place at the pentagon and hit the state department. i don't believe any commissions -- i don't remember any commissions, they were either pardoned or something else happened to them overtime, some went to jail. but were pardoned. the democrats and joe biden have said that january 6 is greatest attack on our democracy in american history.

since the civil war. seems those remember pretty bad. when the marxist left attacks our buildings, riots, burns down our streets, brutalizes other people. and are proud of what they are doing and announce it how come that is never a threat to our democracy? do you notice that? gnome are president trump talked about pardoning these people, i heard lindsey graham and susan collins and democrats, i thought, where the hell were you people when the other people were pardoned. >> it is worse, in summer of 2020, the democrat party said that rioter and looters were peaceful protesters, they helped raise money to bailout those individuals who were attacks our law enforcement. they helped raise money to

bail them out of jail, including the vice president -- sitting vice president of the united states again, the american people are so fed up with the double standard with certain rules for left and elite and the rest of us regular people we have to follow a different set. they are sick. i think it will manifest itself in a huge way in november, hopefully we'll take back the house and senate come november midterm. mark: let me say this and move on. there were 2 capitol police officers in front of a cement barricade, a man drove into them and killed one, his wife contacted me and thanked me for mentioning his name on the radio. the fact is, that man who did that, his identity, his background, was not report

until the next day. now body focusing on that any more. the person who died on january 6, was a nonviolent veteran protestor who was randomly shot and killed. so only person who actually died in terms of police officers, on that job, during the course of his job, in the period of time, was that individual that killer who drove into these two police officers. isn't it amazing how little attention that has received today. if i were to ask nancy pelosi who is in charge of security, what is his name? she would no have no idea. we'll be right back.

mark: welcome back america, congressman jim jordan, let's talk about midterm elections, i get nervous when conservatives and republicans get cocky. i understand we're looking at situations we see what happened in virginia. the base rising up. people had enough. parents had enough of critical race theory. taxpayers had enough of it.

they saw what the administration was doing to put down the parents. that moved a number of suburban people over. 54% of hispanics voted republican. a lot of things out there. but there is also a lot of gerrymandering, you see in new york, they are trying to wipe out half of the republican congressmen, and maryland the one republican congressman they have, they are going on in new mexico, in california. i feel that democrats are better at this sort of thing than the republicans. the democrats are better at being scandals and republicans better wake the hell up. >> it is gerrymandering when democrat do it like in new york, california, there are a lot of republicans in california, but luke as

general assembly dominated by democrats but we never hear about that. you are right. we say never be over confident. be confident. we have to do the work. talk to the american people and tell them how bad the biden administration is. what we'll do if we get power, investigation, oversight we'll do so american people get truths. and even though joe biden will not sign it, it will help up frame up the 2024 race. campaign in a confident way not an over confident way. mark: democrats are better at structural stuff, getting dark money to fund their operations. taking over public election offices with zuckerberg's money. they use the 19 -- here is

the dirty secret, 1965 civil rights act, a voting rights act, in order to try to create as many democrat districts as they can and break up as many republican districts as they can. which is why they fight over it. it is further more a power grab. if you take the house. as you should, and you just mentioned this, i will tell you now, if the republicans and republican leadership don't do to the democrats what the democrats do to the republicans, and the donald trump and the conservatives this would not stop. i want to tell you. the independent council act was pushed by democrat, in 1978. they were excited about it. when it was used to try to take out reagan, and then clinton comes in office with 5 or 6 investigations at once, it was people who developed the action, carl levin and barney frank, came

to the republicans and said surrender, let's get rid of this thing, it is a disaster they -- did, and unless the republicans do to the democrat and nancy pelosi, and president biden, what they have done to president trump, it will get better not worse. >> the ways and means committee needs to figure out how did thousands of americans tax returns get public. that does not happen. we have to get to bottom of, that and to bottom of the doj targeting moms and dads putting a label on parents who show up at school board meetings to say we don't want to crazy racists curriculum taught to our kids, what happened to the border, 1.9 million illegal crossings since biden administration, it

intend shell at, and lab leak theory, it s after been fault, they told us that masks work, if you get vaccine you can't san you -- was wrong, we need to get to the bottom of that. at cdc where they have 33,000 employees and spend 56,000 a year but can't find the time and money for one study. all that certainly has to happen. mark: let me suggest. the corrupt biden family, money that flowed into family from china and ukraine. you could take peter schweizer's book at a perfect guide post, and corrupt pelosi family and her son, she is in to

releasing tax returns, maybe she and her husband can release tax returns, to see can figure out what the hell is going on with them. and pelosi is in charge of whatever legislation comes through. they play ufc and we play marcus of queens bury rules, you are a wrestler, when you have to put your nose in another guy a arm pit that is painful, we'll be right back. >> woman: what's my safelite story? i'm a photographer. and when i'm driving, i see inspiration right through my glass. so when my windshield cracked, it had to be fixed right. i scheduled with safelite autoglass. their experts replaced my windshield and recalibrated my car's advanced safety system. ♪ acoustic rock music ♪

country for days, attorneys general in 5 states are launching similar investigations into gofundme, i am jon scott now back to "life, liberty and levin." mark: welcome back, congressman jim jordan, the border, there are so many issues. president of united states has a constitutional obligation to enforce the law, we had supreme court cases on this. this if president disagrees with the law he must still enforce it. we have had intentional attempt and effort by this president and administration to violate one immigration law after the other. you -- fentanyl and illegal aliens coming in, we have people coming in with diseases, including the coronavirus. we have people coming in

with ms-13. the drug cartels are getting a foothold here. my god, if this is not an impeachable offense, i mean it with all seriousness, is there something you will really dig in on. >> heck, yeah we are, you think about this, this administration has given us record crime, record inflation and record illegal immigration it is liberate, and intentional, you go back, march highest number on record of illegal crosses until april, then may then until -- it is 5 months in a row they kept breaking the record. almost two million illegal immigrants, that is just what we know about in one year, that is deliberate, our conference i think will look at this issue, and decide is this impeachable,

it seems like it is, it a conference wide decision if american people put us in power. mark: evidence is not only -- overwhelming but hard for president to say he was unaware of it with so much media covering it. you have people speaking out. clearly it is intentional, i can imagine the amount of evidence that this is intentional, violating federal law that president of united states takes an oath to up hold the constitution and rule of law, not talking about a transcript of a phone call to a foreign leader, where everyone debates over two words. so ridiculous. or the effort to try to convince the american people that donald trump was leading some kind of a counter revolution against

the capitol building, when he said be peaceful, if you need national guard i'll help. we'll talking an affirmative effort to destroys the border, block the wall, lose money on blocking the wall, overwhelming our people, ignores evidence and death that results from this, and what is going on with all of the local communities. i am telling you that is what high crimes and misdemeanors is about when we talk about the constitution of united states i think a lot of people will be furious if steps are not taken to resolve it. >> agree, this is a deliberate action by the biden administration to undo what president trump put in place, that was working. to deliberately do that, we have seen results with drugs with the crime with the. american people understand that. but, you mentioned the transcripts. think about this, why won't joe biden release the

transcript of call he had with president zelensky. he demanding that president trump do it. they use that as a ridiculous basis for impeaching, we know there was conflict on this call becaused on what cnn reported then took down right away, i would like to to see what they said, maybe american peal people would, but no, such a different standard. back to the double standard that elite left think they get to abide by a certain set of rules, we regular folks have to follow another set. mark: a very important point, this president is a disaster with russia, china, iran, and north korea. he is a disaster with the border, a disaster with the law enforcement, spokesperson said he never supports cutting but enforcement, he did. and he never folk out -- spoke of out.

we have dead rates and rape rates and rates beyond believe, stores closing in inner-city, she president of the -- he is president of the united states, acts like he has no power, who does he do, he an ice cream cone. congressman jim jordan thank you so much. >> thank you. mark: we'll be right back. manage blood sugar levels and contains high quality protein to help manage hunger and support muscle health. try boost® today. discomfort back there? instead of using aloe, or baby wipes, or powders, try the cooling, soothing relief or preparation h. because your derriere deserves expert care. preparation h. get comfortable with it. ♪ i'm the latest hashtag challenge. and everyone on social media is trying me.

mark: welcome back america. we're with john mclaughlin, a pollster extraordinary, he is a policy guy, a substantive guy. he was the trump pollster in 2020, i want to say. it was my view before the election that china, russia iran, and north korea not to

mention cuba and venezuela were rooting for joe biden. >> you are right. when you look at the way that media, handled hunter biden scandal. we did a post election poll for media research. a third of voters who voted for biden had not heard of the hunter biden scandal. if they had, they would have not voted for biden. when you have got the facts that you continually report on about how joe biden and his family through their corruption have been made by the core en governments, now he is implementing policies that benefit them and hurt americans, you could go through from canceling keystone to approving russian nordstrom 2 pipeline, and making us dependent on energy again,

that caused this inflation that is the government spending, americans are suffering for it, there was an election today republicans would take back not just house but senate and republicans would win, last year where there were elections they were close. if republicans would have put more money in they probably would have beaten governor murphy is new jersey, the america public wants an election, we put out a poll of likely voters at end of the last month in january, and 65% of all voters said this country is on the young track. and 57% of likely voted disapprove of the job that joe biden is doing, with those two streams republicans were ahead in generic ballot for congress. we don't usually see that last time i say that, that was in 94, in september, a

delivered a poll, the republicans were up by 7 points in the generic ballot, the poll was done to see if we had to compromise on hillary clinton hillary care. >> jim: couple points. in dark blue states like new york and california, the democrats make great headway in gerrymandering, trying to ensure that republicans have no representation. they don't really believe one person one vote they believe one democrat let's win. they will have an out sized impact on the gerrymandering, republicans don't seem capable of doing a lot about it that always troubles me, you have law firms that get involved in the elections. they change the election laws at 11 hour, if you try

to change them back, you are accused of rigging an election, if you raise issues about it after, said get over it move on. have we that element within republican party, the rinos, never-trumpers and some people who are way too passive whether it comes to dealing with the aggressive party. and win at all costs, then the cockiness, i see people getting on tv saying, we'll win in a landslide, predicting that. you tell me if i'm wrong, i view these as military operations, without actual weapons. you think that patton would have said, we'll win in a landslide. do you think we brought his army through germany he said we'll win in a landslide? i think it say mistake for republicans to talk and think like this, they should always operate like they are behind. >> i full agree. that is by the way, in both

campaigns where i was working with donald trump, i kept saying it was close election we needed to work through until the time of the polls closed in 2020, we have to work through the time county voting for weeks after. but, what is interesting, in new york. -- in georgia they still don't have chain of custody records, you mentioned new york, edam from new york. in new york, new york state conservative party is -- conscience that holds republican to task, my late great friend, he was a trump supporters. he had a saying that the democrats are the crooked party and the

republicans are the stupid party, he is not wrong, look at new york, democrat put us on heels they say texas and ohio redo the gerrymandering plan, new york they are just rolling people over in new york state conservative party like a untold story, in new york state, the dem democrat had 3 state amendments on proposal on ballot last november, one was prop 1, to count illegals in redistrict, prop 3, same day registration in a state you are not allowed to ask for voter i.d., the conservative launched a 4 million dollar campaign that beat all 3 of those props in deep blue new york. the voters said it would

lead to fraud. -- and there was in new york state we had elections in november, we beat the democrat da candidate, wok one of at a there ares authors of cashless bail law. we had great turn outs. they elected -- so not just virginia. >> let me say, i understand this wave is across the country, people are disgusted. not just virginia or new york. not just new jersey. texas, colorado, other deep blue areas, it is important that republicans learn from it, more when we

come back. people with moderate to severe psoriasis, are rethinking the choices they make like the splash they create the entrance they make, the surprises they initiate. otezla. it's a choice you can make. otezla is not a cream. it's a pill that treats plaque psoriasis differently. with otezla, 75% clearer skin is achievable. don't use if you're allergic to otezla. it may cause severe diarrhea, nausea, or vomiting. otezla is associated with an increased risk of depression. tell your doctor if you have a history of depression or suicidal thoughts or if these feelings develop. some people taking otezla reported weight loss. your doctor should monitor your weight and may stop treatment.

upper respiratory tract infection and headache may occur. tell your doctor about your medicines, and if you're pregnant or planning to be. otezla. show more of you.

mark: welcome back, john mclaughlin, joe biden, do the american people like him? do they think he is

competent? do they like his policies? is he drags down the democrat party. ? >> what about kamala harris? >> they don't like him, the party is cracking up now because of joe biden. the republicans have a chance to win hispanic votes and african-american votes, it because of his job disapproval. in may and june it started to decline, voters thought the economy of heading in the right direction, he public a monthly survey, right now 63% of all voters tell us that the economy is getting worse not better. it is his policies that have caused inflation, and cost of living increases, people are going through sticker shock at stores biden tax is a hidden tax by inflation, 22% of voters who voted for biden. in january, right now they

disapprove of the job joe biden is doing, 22% of democrat disapprove of the job, 60% of all voters think he should have a cognitive test and make it public, that goes across the political spectrum in big numbers, american public is worried right now, that joe biden is leaving america leaderless, we're in a does world, country is headed on wrong track. two-thirds of voters have said that, other media polls have it higher, they don't see a president who is capable of turning things around, he is not changes the failing policies. mark: it is more important to note that president of united states has some level of dementia. i think this is relevant. the media does not give a damn. in terms of the joe biden.

the issues, and so forth, right behind him is kamala harris. as i understand she fares worse among american people. >> kamala harris, i see her poll numbers, she is impeachment insure -- insure an, right now biden would lose in the -- losing to donald trump 49-44, but kamala harris trump gets 51 and harris 40. latest version of hillary clinton, trump would beat her 51 to 41. the democrats really are leaderless, because their policies are so bad right now. they have weakened america, what really triggered the collapse on top of the bad economies. and things sliding in the wrong direction and radical big government socialist policies it was the surrender of afghanistan in august, in august, my

friend, stephen harper called me, he was the prime minister of canada, he said this is not a withdrawal, this is a surrender, he was right, and 58% of americans agree it was a surrender to the people who attacked america on 9/11. joe biden is right now, america is in a very dangerous place with him at president. mark: what is interesting to me, john, most of these issues that you bring up. inflation and price of food and gasoline, affects families and their jobs, and small businesses. even though biden still has media behind him with a few rare exceptions, still defending him. the people don't give a damn what the media say, because they feel it personally at the dinner stable, they feel it at their automobile, and at their place of work.

but john mclaughlin, it must frustrate you, i remember in reagan days, the big networks were showing us food lines, soup kitchens, the homeless people. you see much of that homeless people and food lines, and the rest, i remember snider in dc, you don't see that much from media? >> you are not. but voters are getting it out there. one of the great things is the internet. schroders are sharing it they see it like in new york, they don't go in the subways any more it is too dangerous, there is a national crime crisis, people are seeing it in daily lives and sharing it with each other and talking about it, only the mainstream media is trying to keep it quiet, they are losing a lot of credibility. mark: john thank you so much. what is that site,

mclaughlin on-line, dot-com. >> there much more there. thank you so much, sir. we'll be right back. is manny! event planning with our best business unlimited plan ever! with 5g ultra wideband now in many more cities and up to 10 times the speed at no extra cost, the downloads are flying fast! verizon is going ultra, so your business can too. we have to be able to repair the enamel on a daily basis. with pronamel repair toothpaste, we can help actively repair enamel in its weakened state. it's innovative. my go to toothpaste is going to be pronamel repair.

mark: welcome back. i read a piece the other day. review on-line but an individual who provides a lot of constitutional analysis, he really never studies the constitution, but that is all right, talking about january 6. you hear a lot of media talking about january 6, people made a effort to disrupt of counting of the. >> st started before that, it started with democrat party to change the election laws, i will read to you.

carefully avoided by media, each state shall appoint in such matter -- made direct, a number equal to whole number of senators and representative to which state may be entitled in congress. how much clearer could it be. it you take the time to read the convention debates in the states, soming well legal analysts they would understand that took disrupt disruption of election process began earlier than january 6, the quote, unquote, insurrection, began a lot earlier than january 6. which is why i don't know of any news platforms or few that will discuss this point, the supreme court would not take up this issue, it will not go away. it will not go away in 2022.

not in 2024. something i want to discuss more broadly in future shows it is crucial. i'll see you next time, on "life, liberty and levin." >> good evening welcome to "the next revolution" this is the home of positive populism, pro-worker, pro-family, pro-community, and especially pro-america. there was little to no effect on saving lives one.2 percent decrease of covid-19 mortality on average across the us and europe. what did lockdown accomplish? contributed
