On Thursday’s Mark Levin Show, these self-proclaimed MAGA influencers had no role in President Trump's election victories, the credit goes to the American people instead, and their divisive tactics could undermine Trump and lead to Republican losses in midterm elections. We’ve had weeks of these influencers who are angry with Trump over the ‘Epstein files’, yet Trump’s ratings have gone even higher since Epstein. We hoped the new media would be better, but some aspects are worse. Also, no other President could have achieved what Trump has. He supplied top U.S. military equipment to Ukraine with Europeans funding it, pressured NATO countries to raise defense spending from under 2% to 5% and negotiated U.S. access to Ukraine's rare earth minerals. Trump’s tariffs are mostly absorbed by foreign producers, not U.S. consumers, contrary to expectations. The border is secure with zero illegals entering for the last two months. Trump is making the impossible, possible. Later, immigration laws, in place since 1952, mandate deporting all illegal immigrants—not just those committing heinous crimes—to uphold sovereignty and deter unlawful entry. Trump is following immigration law and the Democrats don’t like that. Afterward, the Dinah Project's new report documents Hamas's systematic sexual violence during the October 7, 2023, attack on Israel. It reveals patterns of gang rape, genital mutilation, and humiliation across sites like the Nova festival and kibbutzim, often targeting both living and dead victims. Driven by ideology, not collateral damage, the assaults hold all participants—especially commanders—responsible. In addition, a study by the Network Contagion Research Institute says that major U.S. and European news outlets, including MSNBC, CNN, The Washington Post, and Reuters, acted as uncritical megaphones for Hamas-linked narratives during the Gaza war by amplifying unverified claims from the Hamas-controlled Gaza Health Ministry without disclosing its affiliations.
