♪ ♪ ♪ ♪ ♪. mark: hello america i am marker levin this is a special christmas edition of life, liberty, and levin. we celebrate the season of joy and peace we want to take a look back at some of the guests we have had on all throughout the year. all of whom understand the importance of americanism and i believe you'll be encouraged by their stories of what they have to say. we begin with a dear friend of mine pastor jon haiti a great patriot and a supporter of the united states in the state of israel. he and i discussed the critical relationship between jews and what i call righteous gentiles. go. >> dear friend, a great patriot or the greatest friends israel has pastor jon hagee chairman founder of israel.

cornerstone church san antonio, texas. you know pastor you do not need an introduction. but they are, and give you one. i want to get right down to business here. you are a leading evangelical christian voicing eye states of america millions of people who follow you. you have a huge church. and that my question to you is this, is this a war that is taking place against israel and the jews, is it a war all americans should be very, very concerned about? >> absolutely america should be concerned about it. one, because if democracy in the middle east is destroyed gives all the enemies of democracy a capacity to destroy the democracy in this country. i think there is something the american people need to think about. iran was the mastermind behind

this war. and hamas were the ground troops. they call us the great stay tuned and israel belittle stay tuned. what is to stop iran, those masterminds who plan that, from planning a similar plan for the united states of america and it using the people who have come across our southern borders for eight similar event to happen in this nation. because it china with its spy blimp they sent over to the united states for seven days certainly knows where all of our military equipment and machinery and bases are. this nation, the united states of america is wide open for the same thing that israel

experienced and i believe meat they hate us to the core and would be delighted to do it. mark: a pastor, let me ask you this. there is a lot of talk about the jewish people occupying jerusalem. occupying judeo and samaria. occupying this entire area which the enemies of israel belong to arabs and palestinians and so forth and so on. just a short history about judaism and christianity, and what would happen to these sites israel ceased to exist or israel was out there to protect them? >> of sites would disappear. those sites would disappear. the idea this land does not belong to israel is simply a concoction of people who are surrendering to an ideology that is completely false. the fact is there is a god.

that got is a creator. and that god genesis one and one created the heavens and the earth. since he created the heavens and the earth he is owner. as owner he has rights and he, as owner, has given to the jewish people the descendents of abraham, isaac, and jacob. their covenant with them that they should own this land forever. that covenant is recorded in the bible more than 20 times. and it remains their property to this day. that covenant with god has never been broken and it still stands. the people who are saying the land does not belong to israel do not believe in the god of heaven. and they do not believe the bible is the word of god. mark: you have been to israel were times that i can count. you go there at least once a

year, often two times of year. you have visited these ancient sites that have up to 4000 years and so forth. you have seat with their own two eyes in touch with your own two hands places in jerusalem, the city of david, other places throughout the country of is israel. places mentioned in the bible about jewish and christian, and who was where and when they were there. this is real, is it not pastor? >> absolutely. jesus christ him self says if men will not praise me the very rocks will cry out and recognize me. that fact is that every few days archaeologist in israel are digging up memorabilia of treasurers of thousands of years in age written in hebrew. on those documents as proof positive that thousands of years

ago the seed of abraham occupied this territory. >> it is interesting the palestinian authority does not want those archaeologists are ag those things. they say they are destroying the foundations of the palestinian homes around the area. they are demanding that they stop. is that the real reason that they demanding it stopped, the real reason the propaganda in the united states and throughout the middle east is about the jews being the occupants? so that they can simply try to americanize or westernize their goal of exterminating the jews? >> that would be absolutely true. there is no such thing as a two state solution. hamas worships death. we have seen that in these past few days in a pattern that that is the most vicious thing that humanity has seen since the

holocaust. they worship death. the jewish people are people who pursue life. they pursue life. life and death are polar opposites and there will never be reconciliation between radical islam and judaism. god gave to abraham isaac and jacob a written contract and it covenant in the word of god many times for those who are slow to get the message. that this land belongs to the seed of abraham for ever and forever, end of story. mark: you founded this group christians united for israel. why did you found this group and what is it do? work stastarting at the beginnin 1978 i went to israel as a tourist and i came home of zionist. i was at the western wall praying and i looked over my

left shoulder and i saw an elderly jewish man rocking back and forth kissing the torah. and the thought went through my mind that man is your spiritual brother and you don't know anything about him. and he is terrified of you. why don't you do everything in your power to bring christians and jews together in a nonthreatening environment for the jewish people are appreciated for their accomplishments and contributions to america and the world. i returned home with that goal in mind. whenever the idf a bomb, the nuclear reactor the media it immimmediately began to attack israel. i thought israel should be congratulated for ridding the world of this nuclear nuisance. and so i told my wife we need to have in san antonio where we are

bringing all the christians together in the auditorium at downtown. and have a tribute to the jewish people. so that they know we would like to have a time of it being unified rather than being divided. and so we managed to get the auditorium downtown. and i invited all of the pastors of the city to come. our choir and our orchestra came and sang hebrew songs. and i know he must've turned over in his grave. we took an offering and we gave it to hadas. the women who received that offering wept. the whole audience or to weeping i did not know how to process it until it dawned on me for the first time in their life they are seeing the love of god extended to the jewish people rather than that anti-semitism.

as the rabbi came and was closing the events with the benediction security came to me and said we have a bomb threat on this building. long story short people quickly evacuated and that is where i determine we are going to have a night to honor israel in every major city in america. i made videos about how to do it. i sent it to the pastors of cities. i flew the wings off my plane going from city to city organizing these events called knights to honor israel. they still are in abundance now all over the world. then came threatening to blow up israel. israel should be a one bomb nation. in 2006 i organized christians united for israel. i brought to san antonio for hundred of the leading

evangelicals of the nation. i brought together television network owners, publishers, all of the people who made it happen for the evangelicals. i told them that we should as a people stand up for the jewish people. how many of them would go each year to washington d.c. with me? meet your elected officials, your congressman, have talking points and state what it is you could do for the state of israel. it was a miracle all 400 of them raise their hand and said we would do this. i said everything we do toward the jewish people has no hidden agenda. and they got the message. they showed up. we had 3600 people come just five months later to washington. today it christians united for israel has over 10 million people because we are organized

with the national structure by region, by state, by city with the push of a button we can activate 10 million people to go to israel's aid in washington d.c. in any capacity. that is the only issue we have. israel. israel. israel. god has given us great favor an opportunity to accomplish many things on behalf of the jewish people because jerusalem is indeed the epicenter of the world. jerusalem is a sure light of eternity. jerusalem is where isaiah and jeremiah penned principles of righteousness fabric of the become the moralfoundation of wn civilization. jerusalem is where david said if i forget the old jerusalem let my right hand forget it's coming i let my left hand -- let my

tongue slipped to the roof of my mouth. jerusalem is the city where messiah is coming. jerusalem and the city that's important to christians and jews. by appeal to every question who is watching this network right now if you have not been a supporter of the jewish people get on the right side of this issue because i assure you he who keep with with israel neither slumbers nor sleeps. wake up america at this is our opportunity to truly demonstrate our love and affection for with the jewish people have done for us. paul said we should consider what they have done and we are obligated to bless them in every capacity we possibly can. mark: how profound on this sunday bread god bless you sir. what people want to help christians united for israel where they go? i'm scared to see you fi.org. and you are in.

thank you sir hope to see you soon. >> god bless you thank you. mark: cap next basketball star trisha story of overcoming trisha story of overcoming adversity.y. you do not want too co miss it. i recommend sensodyne. sensodyne toothpaste goes inside the tooth and calms the nerve down. and my patients say you know doc, it really works. i'm sholeh, and i lost 75 pounds with golo. i went from a size 20 to a size 6. before golo, nothing seemed to work. i was exercising for over an hour every day. it was really discouraging. but golo's so easy, the weight just falls off.

mark: it welcome back to our special episode of life, liberty and levin. we take a look back at some of the great patriots we have had on our show during the course of the year. our next guest is a former nba star who has never been afraid to speak up for what he believes it. no matter the consequences. take a listen to his powerful story, go. we are here who is really heroic in so many ways. the gentleman was a basketball player. he loses his career because he stands on principle. he opposes terrorism. that is the bottom line he opposes terrorism. i had terrorist regimes. and so freedom, i asked you before the break if you or to go back to turkey or extradited to turkey. or worse if you are kidnapped yd for traveling josé overseas when they brought you back to turkey, what would happen to you? >> i have arrest warrant. they put my name a interpol list

and their eyes i'm an international criminal part i have a list here and i could only go to 29 countries in the world. if i go to any other countries besides this i will be extradited back to turkey. forget about all of this but i have not seen my family in almost 10 years now. i do not even know my mom and dad look like but my sister got married i cannot even call her and say congratulations. if they get in touch with me on their eyes is like a terrorist act they will be in jail. so they're scared to pick up the phone and send me a text message. i fight africa back to turkey you would never hear from you ever again. i mean they put in my dad in jail. they put so much pressure from here to turkey they had to let him go but they came to my house. they rated the whole house they took all electronics away they wanted to see if i have been still in contact with my family or not.

they could not find evidence in the put my dad in jail. my family, the letters out on the internet. my family had to publicly disown me so they would leave them alone. they've been getting harassed. in the streets of turkey they have done nothing wrong. i am the one tongue but the political prisoners in human rights violations that made me a terrorist. if that's going to make me a terrorist i will take it. and it's a sad situation because turkey could have been a bridge of islam and west. but now all these problems are happening. turkey's are harassing greece. turkey is harassing turkish people. it was to be that leader of the muslim world pretty says he cares about the palestinians. what you talk about china? they are muslim two. why are you bombing turkish cities? they are muslim two. it is hypocrisy.

he has this crazy thought in his head he wants to be the leader of the islamic world. everybody knows he is a dictator. i hate literally runs a country like a mafia leader. mark: how many has he offered to take into turkey? >> zero literally zero. if you really care about the innocent life of palestinians then it wh why don't you let thn turkey? he is leading the terr terrace s like the isis terrorists did he is leading the hezbollah terrorist and the al qaeda terrorist in paris when it comes innocent palestinians that he

says he cares about he says no, we are good. i am like it is such a shame. people say enough is enough. it starts with our administration. present present abiding cannot be soft and the dictators ships starting with turkey, china, russia, by ron. this all happened because of the 6 billion-dollar fund. we need to say enough is enough and we have to be the america that evan thanks we are. mark: we are not the america everybody thanks we are with it administration that appeases. he appeases these very, very evil people who slaughter people, torture people, silence people. why do you think the bite ministration so weak? >> i think when it comes to some of the dictatorship they think they want to have a better relationship with the countries. but all of the dictatorship is taking advantage of that. listen, i am a u.s. citizen. i have been trying to meet with president biden to talk about my family situation since he took

office. i actually have a conversation with one of the democratic senator. i asked him like senator you think president biden is my story? he says absolutely. a set of been trying to get in touch with him and maybe have a conversation with him or someone from his office someone from the administration he said sorry they're not going to meet with you and i was like why? they said because of turkey, because of them being a nato ally. i said so you are pretty much telling me they're scared to me with a 30-year-old nba player? he said i cannot say they are scared but yes they are scared. mark: he seems filled me with everybody else including people from care which is a hamas related group and all kinds of people. but he won't meet with you. that is pretty disgusting. look, i want to thank you freedom for the public stance you are taken. for putting your life, your career on the line. and god bless you my friends.

>> thank you so much for giving me a platform and i appreciate that. mark: you better believe it. we return how important is leaning on one's faith? find out with our dear friend right after the break. we will be right back.

welcome to fox news like i'm jon scott in the art by the rushed on for last-minute travelers to get to the destination in time for christmas.

but not everyone is in for a holly jolly travel conditions. a storm position develop in the central u.s. is expected to bring heavy rain to the plains, midwest and south this weekend. some places could see accumulating snow. aall that could of course delay and canceled flights. you can also make for tough driving conditions for more than one or 15 million americans are expected to travel this holiday season. country singer laura lynch has died. police in texas as she was killed in a head on a crash yesterday by the musician was on the four founding members of the dixie chicks which formed in 1989. she recorded three albums with the group before leaving in 1993. laura lynch was 65 years old. i am jon scott now back to life, liberty and levin. ♪. mark: will come back america but

tonight we are celebrating the christmas holiday with a look back at some of our guests this year. who'd never stop working to help america to b be the best it can. haley absolutely unbelievable lady. she is a rising star in the conservative movement. an all-around great american her story of faith through trying times is beautifully told in her book serenity in the storm. watch. an tacit book serenity. i went to ask you this, you look at this administration, this administration as you point out is anti- faith. given what law enforcement are doing to people of faith we've never seen anything like that before. its position on abortion is so extreme that if they get their way this out of the country on the face of the earth but north korea and china that treat their own babies this way.

the democrats say they want to codify roe versus wade but they don't breed they want to codify partial birth abortion. abortion on demand at one second before birth producing the republicans are in a good job communicating that? i am very concerned if this is an issue they need to explain the democrats are trying to do. >> yes this is how we went on the issue of abortion we can win. there's no doubt it is motivated a wide swath of people i was in kansas, i spoke to a pro life group they talked by the number of young people who register are voted down the pro life a ballot initiative this is how we went on it is his data i gathered from this organization. data from the nr sc when sitter scott was there we need to re- own the word compassion. the word compassion on this issue means a lot. we need to prosecute the left onto questions. number one, where you do you drw the line? two your point they do not have

a line it is abortion until bertha sought the western european standard of 15 or 20 weeks it is no line we heard the term john fetterman, katie hobbs and many others. there's a moment i want to seal the debate stage i went to see donald trump or ron desantis or whoever it is with joe biden in the eye ask him when does a baby feel pain? mark he will not have an answer to that question. don't think any democrat in congress will have an answer to that question. if you are the party of abortion should have an answer to that question finally week i have to say we need to talk about vulnerable women and supporting them during pregnancy. on an ancillary point but an important one. courts have brought this up with senator hawley. children and you have to take care of them. do you think the biden family is a good example of this with that young 4-year-old in arkansas and the mother they have abandoned and they do not want the kid to use his name and that actually is a godsend. but they do not want to support that kid they ignore that kid as

if she doesn't exist. she is four years old she is not done anything to deserve this. imagine what she thanks, her grandfather's president of the united states in her grandfather will not even recognize her. >> of course of course you look at that example you see the inhumanity of the president. president biden portrayed himself as his folksy nice relatable man who cares deeply and he has shown himself to be anything but. you had we federal legislation put forward that would cut off abortion i believe it 20 weeks with the ex exception joe bidens response to that is i am catholic and my church is not believe that anymore which is false. you can read catholic catechism that's false. this is a man and doesn't seem his faith is guiding his weight does not seemed like his heart is getting is when this issue. two things are really important in my mind when we talk about life and death. mark: it is really -- it's not

just classless and cold it is heartless. in the treatment that this young lady and in particular his granddaughter is receiving seems like they wish you would've had an abortion and since she didn't know we have this kid and we are not going to recognize this kid we are going to pretend this kid does not exist in here we are it's mother's day mothers across the country are to be celebrated on it i can only imagine what this mother thanks in this little baby this little 4-year-old i meant four years old you know they can think, they can speak they can wonder what in the world is going on. the heartlessness of it. joe biden will spend everybody else's money into a brokenness contribute he will sniff every little girl's hair. he will enjoy the easter egg rolls with strangers, the christmas party with strangers by your own flesh and blood?

i don't know that it's pretty id to me because it's very cold and i'm so glad to talk about the humanity of this world with think about it often we talk about as a court case with hunter biden. but in reality it hunter biden tried to deny he was even the father until he is forced to take the test at that for the paternity was proven imagine sport little girl not having the love and support of her father. and then her grandfather is the president of the united states to maybe this lends more meaning to the words biden says often and he's set up more than once to a group of teachers it is not like they are my children they are our children when they are in the classroom. maybe there's more meaning to that that would previously thought it's really a despicable statement. i can tie this my daughter, my son i'm sorry biden, she never belongs to you or her teachers she belongs to her mommy as much a she loves her teachers. mark: . mark: we do thank you for coming on the part of a mother still went issue get a month what it

felt mother's day the book is serenity in the storm and want to encourage people to get on amazon.com. at a bookstore, it is out there right now. god bless you and your wonderful family picnics thank you mark it's an honor to join it you are the greatest in the conservative brickwork's next missouri to action is next and we wille right back. it changes how you eat, how you feel, and how you enjoy life. it changes your smile and how others smile at you. clearchoice network doctors have changed over 100,000 lives with dental implants, and they can change yours, too. because a clearchoice day changes every day. schedule a free consultation.

missing spoke about america. senator josh hawley believes there is a crisis among men in america and it is only getting worse. but what is the solution? senator hawley offered some thought-provoking ideas, go. >> for the most important centers we have in the senate, especially to come to tried to hold the department of justice feet to the fire is josh hawley. and you are a breath of fresh air senator when you're at the hearings and tell it like it is and you do not take any nonsense. but i can also see the

frustration, it's hard to get answers from these people is a stone wall you. you look at what is happening in our culture which is also with this administration on the left. you apparently had enough of that you wrote an entire book of manhood the virtues america needs. you can get it at amazon or any bookstore and tuesday. you'd say there is a crisis of manhood, what do you mean by that? looks at me and mark america needs stronger men. you look at these statistics record numbers of suicides among men. we have record levels of depression. record levels of drug abuse and alcohol abuse at the same time it got more and more men are out of the workforce they are not even trying to work up or they're not having families or their leaving their families. if appealing to end child povery in america put fathers back in the home providing for their kids for affluent and the childhood crime epidemic

teenagers the crime, the violence, put a father back in the home. this book is just about how we need men to be strong we need them to step up and read them o take responsibility the lies the leftileft is telling the sink md is inherently toxic and to be a man in and of itself make the world worse that is just not true we need to be sending the opposite message. toxic at the sense the democrat party, biden kamala harris and the rest of them are really at war with the men they issue executive orders about women about transgender. the fiats based on ethnicity. based on race. and men are always attacked including byte bite when we cald the second gentleman kamala harris' husband as you point out men are toxic. i feel like men are under constant attack by the left, the democrat party in the medium i wrong about that question. >> you are not wrong the ideology of the left now and for

decades has been there something inherently wrong with masculinity. so they went to educate our kids out of it. got two little boys at home they are 10 and eight i write about them in the book. you look at what our kids are taught in schools by the time they go to preschool for heaven sake they are taught if they are a boy if they want to be aggressive if they want to talk about guns that is bad that the need to be medicated that he be quieted down when they get a little older they are taught manhood is inherently dangerous to contribute to climate change. they need to renounce their masculinity. you see this ideology it permeates our media, our culture, all driven by the left and then wonder why is it more and more men are not pursuing education more and more men aret pursuing work. we have got to tell the truth which is we need strong men in this country we need them to go out there and work. we need them to start a family. we need them to provide if you want to change america for the

better get men to be strong again, to take on the responsibilities. mark: senator, do you think this is part of the war on religion a nuclear family sort of a marxist ideology? all of these government programs seems to stress the breakup of the family you get more money if this on a father in the house and so forth. what do you make of that? >> quite sisterly a part of the left do marxism you've written about this it's a marxist their neo- marxist ideology that says there is no such thing as mail or female it says again if you want to be a man and show the traditional traits of masculinity there is something wrong with you they want to break up the family there is a religious aspect of it. the neo- marxist hate the legacy of faith in this country for truly do not like the bible they do not like its influence on our culture. that's why in the book us if you in a talk about what it looks like to be a good man there is

no better place to turn to than the tradition of the bible which is one so many americans share has been such a powerful influence for good in our culture. it does open up that tradition let's look at the tradition of the bible so many of us share that has been so powerful and look about what it means to be a good man who provides, or protects, who builds thing, who contributes and that's really what the book is about. >> you also talk about your family. your grandfather and your father and their influence on you. tell us about that. >> would make great heroes in life is my grandfather who is no longer with us. it was a powerful role model for me aware of what it looks like to be a good man. the first generation of our family board in the united states his dad was an immigrant from norway. my grandfather was a simple guide not complicated his farmers whole life. he taught me the value of work. he taught me the value of the sacrifice for your family. he did not do it and show a ways

he was not a big guy for words he did it by the way that he lived by the way he acted and how he demonstrated that so i write about that in the book and i write about other role models of mine coaches and teachers who have demonstrated what it looks like to be a good man and to serve others produce sacrifice on behalf of your family to take a risk to be willing to take a stand to be courageous. and as i travel the country and talk to young men telling the stories about what it looks like to be a good man is so important because young men in our culture are starved for good role models for they are star for a model of what it looks like to be a good strong man. so part of what i try to do in the book is tell stories for my own life stories from the bible about what it looks like to be a good man. mark: after the break america's wise man the left's never ending attack on trump. we will be right back.

mark: welcome back america. the left which hunt against former president trump is insidious. so they accelerated over the past year. victor davis hanson one of our country's brightest intellectuals who joined me a few months ago to analyze the

lens into which the left is trying to humiliate and ultimately imprison our former president. take a listen. >> of the great victor davis hanson of the hoover institution be recalled america's wise man. victor, you look at these indictments there really quite petty. there are documents that have been retrieved and returned to the government. over non- insurrection and non- incitement's. atlanta taking what is commonplace political activity trying to turn it into a mob rico violation. with 19 at defendants. you look at manhattan you have nondisclosure agreements that's what you have but they've turned into 38 federal charges. they talk about the fundamental transformation of america on the left. these indictments in three jurisdictions involving almost 100 charges, potentially 1000 years in prison.

this is a nonviolent revolution is it not? >> it is. we had not had a mass murderer who is cited simultaneously on indictments and for different jurisdictions. it seems to be almost coordinated state and local and federal. i guess what i am saying is i do not think the left understands what they have unleashed. they have now not set a precedt they about impeaching presidents twice were trying them when they are private citizens this is something even more bold. i think every county prosecutor in the united states, every a local prosecutor every city prosecutor can outtake upon the authority if he disagrees with the president of the united states to indict him. to the democrats really want to have utah or wyoming or perhaps an alabama prosecutor go after the next democratic president? because every one of these things donald trump has been

charged with there are parallels democrats dig in the 2000 election in 2004, the 2016 the stacey abrams was in georgia why didn't prosecute indict stacey abrams not just election to nihilism but having people try to demand a recount's and interfere with the balloting process. they have unleashed a hurricane. they have never apologize for what they do and they never think it's going to come back to get them but it will. mark: is very important what you are saying i disagree some of our friendly legal analysts who are saying the president cannot pardon himself from state charges. we are not talking about average citizens were under federal's and the president cannot and should not. and in imparting individuals by letting state law or convicting state law. that has nothing to do with this. the question that you raise is,

can an assistant district attorney decapitate the federal government? can an assistant district attorney crippled executive branch? >> or a local regional contexts contextassume the role of a fedl prosecutor and indict the president of the united states for would be a federal if it were even true it would be a federal crime because they are talk about a conspiracy or racketeering to disrupt the balloting. but the balloting is not just georgia it's one state with an electoral college. avandia will assist things donald trump tried to use georgia to affect the entire united states in a federal manner and disrupt the federal election. i am not sure she has any jurisdiction. but the point is she's going to set a precedence. and there is going to be a lot of other prosecutors will be far more gifted an app former grounds in the future to go after a president.

we will see what happens. the tragic thing about this is whether it is a russian collusion or russian disinformation with the laptop, or the first impeachment or trying trump as a private citizen there's never any apology. it is never any introspection. maybe we were wrong about that, maybe we lied about it, maybe hilary clinton used three pay walls to disrupt an election by hiring a foreign national which is illegal to do with christopher steele. they have no remorse, no regrets is always onto the next psychodrama. >> is this underscore they are doing? they want to be america's monopoly party. they want to return the republican party into basically a minor party because of the motions of elections but we know which parties going to win. just like the criminal justice system we go through the motions we have a judge, we have a jury, we have a grand jury, we have a prosecutor proved you these sorts of things in the old

soviet union. we do these sorts of things and old dictatorship in a marxist resume after another. that is they go after the motion. when we come back i have a final word to share with you, all on this christmas weekend. we will be right back.

♪ welcome back, america. this concludes our special edition of life, liberty and levin. i hope these guests have given you a lot to think about but also offer hope and encouragement for the future. a fantastic new year. i'll see you next time on life, liberty and levin the ♪ ♪ ♪ >> thirteen street and broadway, downtown and had
