Mark Levin drops the hammer: America isn’t rigged — your ideology is
One of the great beauties of America, says Mark Levin, is her lack of fixed social classes. With grit and determination, anyone from any background can rise in the ranks and become successful. That’s why America is the top country of origin for self-made millionaires and billionaires.
Now compare that to Marxist regimes, where the mantra is “you are what you are, and that’s where you’re going to stay.” Work ethic, intelligence, ambition don’t get you anywhere, unless, of course, you’re part of the government machine that crushes the people.
And yet the radical left and the neofascist right alike are pushing similar grievance politics that echo Marxist tactics — demanding more government to “fix” a rigged system. Progressives say, “If you’re a minority, the system is out to get you,” while “the neofascists [say] if you’re white, the system is out to get you,” says Levin, accusing both groups of “racializing” economics to the detriment of all.
“They want more and more government, which is the biggest problem we have,” he says.
But this push for more federal power is the folly of ideologues. “We conservatives are motivated by reality. … Our principles are based on knowledge and information and experience and reality — not a fanatical ideology,” says Levin.
“This ideology of Marxism and socialism, it’s been imposed on one society after another — imposed. And it’s a disastrous outcome in every case: poverty, often genocide, no civil liberties.”
But because the government holds all the power, the blame can’t be placed on the ruling class when everything inevitably goes to hell in a handbasket. Rather the people — powerless and crushed economically and in spirit — shoulder the blame.
But even though history lessons in failed socialism abound, still people like Robert Reich make capitalism the villain. Levin plays a clip of the former secretary of labor under Bill Clinton whining about McDonald’s high prices — the same complaint he made in 1994 — as proof that corporations are deliberately creating a permanent underclass.
Levin’s response is brutal and simple: “You were an idiot in 1994, and you’re an idiot today.” In the 31 years since Reich’s prophecy, millions of supposedly “left-behind” Americans started businesses, bought homes, and invested.
“Your life isn’t static. The economy is not static. Nothing is static. The fact is things keep turning along. Sometimes they go over a cliff; sometimes up to the stars,” says Levin, noting that his life has changed tremendously since 1994.
But if you really want to buy Reich’s argument that McDonald’s and “processed foods” are the problem, go ahead and ban them, he says.
Get rid of the Big Macs, the canned beans, the frozen pizzas, the mass-produced bread, the snacks — everything affordable and convenient. The result won’t be social justice; it’s “people starve to death,” says Levin.
The ideological war on private enterprise always ends up punishing the very people it claims to help — exactly the pattern Marxism has repeated from Moscow to Havana. America works, Levin concludes, precisely because we let people solve their own problems instead of letting utopian grifters in Washington or on social media tell them the system is rigged and only total government control can save them.

Mark Levin reveals what’s REALLY bankrupting Americans (it’s not billionaires)
One of the left’s favorite talking points is that extreme wealth concentration among billionaires is a major contributing factor to the financial struggles of everyday Americans. According to the logic of Bernie Sanders, Elizabeth Warren, and Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, among other progressives, eliminate billionaires and you solve America’s economic problems.
But Mark Levin debunks this argument with ease: “The billionaires aren’t our problem. They’re irrelevant in terms of whether you succeed or not. Government’s your problem because they take from you, they regulate you, they obstruct you.”
Billionaires, he explains, via investments and spending, actually pump their money back into the economy, which means “more capital, more research and development.” Then the money they save in banks just gives banks “more money to lend to … you and me, Mr. and Mrs. America,” says Levin.
But the government with their excessive spending and never-ending list of regulations and taxes bar the American people from financial success.
“Try and open a restaurant … maybe a doughnut-and-coffee place in your community. Watch all the red tape you have to go through,” says Levin. “That’s not capitalism blocking you. That’s socialism. That’s government. That’s politicians and bureaucrats.”
He gives another example of someone trying to increase his property value by adding a room to his house. Most will never see it happen because regulations will either forbid it or make it financially untenable for the homeowner.
Right now, we’re living in the aftermath of the Biden regime, Levin explains. “They spent like drunken Marxists, drove up the inflation rate. They were trying to manage the business world and individuals during the pandemic and did a horrendous job because so much of it was phony science and was politics.”
That’s why today, businesses like MacDonald’s are reporting massive declines in customer traffic for 2025. Robert Reich, secretary of labor under Bill Clinton, recently put out a video blaming it on Trump’s rigged economy, pointing to the contrast between booming stock market performance and the financial struggles of everyday Americans as evidence.
But Levin punctures his argument. “Any of you have pensions that aren’t Social Security-related or government-related? … Well, if the stock market collapses, so does your pension … your IRA, your 401(k).” Further the stock market “reflects how well a business is doing. If a business is doing poorly, it’s going to fire people, and it’s going to have an effect on our economy.”
The government is the problem, he reiterates. “Tell me, when is the last time the government had a net reduction in spending?” he asks.
The national debt is sitting at $38 trillion, and that doesn’t even account for our “off books debt.”
“Meaning they owe Social Security recipients, Medicare recipients because they’ve taken all your money,” Levin explains, noting that the actual debt is “over $300 trillion.”
“The economy creates between 17 and 18 trillion a year. We’re never going to pay that, are we? And so it’s borrow, borrow, borrow, borrow,” he sighs.
No matter how the economy is doing, the government’s mindset is always the same: “Spend more.”
“In other words, there’s no market system. There’s no check and balance. There’s no rational reason for this other than there are politicians who want to spend your taxes and then want to spend the money that’s yet been created by your children and your grandchildren,” says Levin.
He destroys Reich’s faulty argument that Trump only gives tax breaks to the rich with three points:
One: Trump eliminated federal income tax on tips and overtime pay, gave a 15% tax cut to middle-income workers, eliminated tax on Social Security benefits for seniors, and added deductions for U.S.-made car loan interest.
Two: Billionaire tax breaks that “actively screw the middle class” would be electoral suicide on the part of the GOP.
Three: The vast majority of billionaires fund the Democrat Party and progressive activist groups.
The leftist argument that billionaires are the enemy is rooted in the Marxist framework of oppressed versus oppressor, Levin explains. It’s the left’s go-to explanation for every problem the nation faces. While the economy is indeed an issue, pushing the blame on “oppressive” billionaires isn’t going to fix anything.
We’re still suffering from the horrific decisions of the Biden administration, Levin reminds us. It’s going to take time for the changes the Trump administration is implementing to be felt by the people. Further Levin urges his audience to go into the supermarket and look around at how many goods are available to us. “Capitalism is also about availability” — something media figures like Reich conveniently disregard.
“The benefits of this society are all around us … not thanks to government or taxes or redistribution of wealth,” he says.
“There have always been people who are wealthier than the vast majority of the people, and you will find that in every Marxist fascist regime on the face of the earth; you will find it in every monarchy in the Middle East.”
“The difference is this. … In our country, you can have enormous wealth, and you can lose enormous wealth. You could be born dirt poor, and you could become a millionaire if that’s your objective. In other words, there’s mobility in a free capitalist system. There is no mobility in a Marxist fascist monarchical system.”

Mark Levin: Qatar funds terror, shelter killers — now America’s ‘best friend’?
While Mark Levin is one of President Trump’s most vocal supporters, he is concerned about America’s fraternizing with Qatar — a country pitched as “one of the great leaders of the Middle East and the world.”
“I say no, Qatar is a very dangerous country,” says Levin.
He reminds us that in 2002, Wall Street Journal reporter Daniel Pearl was brutally beheaded by Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, al-Qaeda’s chief of operations and the architect of 9/11. It was Qatar who sheltered KSM from the FBI — specifically the father of the country’s current ruler, Sheikh Tamim bin Hamad Al Thani.
Further, these same Qatari family members, Levin says, “are the sugar daddies for Hamas” — funding the terrorist organization for years, hosting its leaders, and acting as its political lifeline.
That hasn’t changed. Even though Qatar has been a key broker alongside the U.S. and Egypt in the tiered ceasefire deal between Hamas and Israel, it’s still on Team Hamas, Levin says.
Just last month, Sheikh Tamim delivered an address at the opening session of the 54th annual Shura Council.
He was clear about where Qatar’s loyalty lies: “Israel has violated all laws and norms governing relations between nations through its aggressive actions against the mediator and its attempt to assassinate members of a negotiating delegation. We consider this aggression to be state terrorism. And the global response was so powerful that it shocked those responsible. What’s happened in the Gaza Strip in the past two years amounts to genocide — a term that encapsulates all atrocities. It is regrettable that they remain incapable of enforcing its respect when it comes to the tragedy of our brotherly Palestinian people.”
This is a load of lies, says Levin. “The Israelis weren’t trying to take out the negotiators. They were trying to take out the Hamas leaders that [Sheikh Tamim] was protecting.”
“[Qatar] is [America’s] new best friend,” he laments.
“They’ve gotten into the West,” into “all parties, every aspect of our culture, our educational system. … They are behind the Muslim Brotherhood, Islamic Jihad, Hamas. They supported the Taliban, and they support the destruction of our universities and colleges.”
For Levin, Qatar’s billions and diplomatic handshakes can’t erase its track record. America’s “new best friend” remains a Trojan horse for terrorism and anti-Western ideology.

From New York to the nation: Mark Levin warns that socialism’s endgame is America itself
True grassroots communist revolutions are a myth, says Mark Levin. These political uprisings are always orchestrated by privileged, educated elites who romanticize poverty and oppression while living comfortably.
It’s a theme that echoes throughout history. Revolutions rarely start in slums or sweatshops; they start in lecture halls, cafés, and salons where theory outweighs experience.
Take China’s Mao, Russia’s Lenin, Cuba’s Castro, or Germany’s Marx as examples. All were brought up in well-to-do families, educated, and set up for success. They preached justice for the working man, pretending the whole time that their ivory towers were actually trenches.
New York City’s new Democrat mayor, Zohran Mamdani — a self-described socialist — is no different.
“His family is worth millions. … The mother, funded in part significantly by Qatar; the father secretes himself into Columbia University, where he makes a good salary as a radical professor promoting anti-Westernism, anti-Americanism, anti-Semitism, and terrorism,” says Levin, calling Mamdani “a trust-fund baby” who married a woman even “richer than he is.”
Mamdani’s socialist supporters — primarily Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) and Rep. Alexandra Ocasio-Cortez (D-N.Y.) — have similar stories. Neither grew up in impoverished homes or worked much in the private sector before rising to political prominence. And yet they push socialist reform to the masses as if they knew the taste of poverty.
Levin then highlights his own blue-collar beginnings and decades of conservative activism as proof that he understands real work and therefore real America.
“I was a litigator. I was a lawyer for a nonprofit organization. We wouldn’t have school choice in this country but for Landmark Legal Foundation and the battles that we fought in the Wisconsin Supreme Court. … We are the ones who went after the NEA. … We’re the ones that went after the Environmental Protection Agency that was trying to push out a zillion regulations right before Donald Trump took office,” Levin recounts.
“’76 — the Reagan campaign. ’80 — the Reagan campaign. The Tea Party movement … that’s where I met Donald Trump. He was very interested in the Tea Party movement,” he adds.
“[The Convention of States movement] was started by Mark Meckler and me with my book ‘The Liberty Amendments.’ … It’s now 5, 6 million members.”
“I’m [sharing] this to explain that when I come to you and I talk about these things on this platform, on Fox, on my radio show, where I write about them, it’s not esoteric. It’s not theory. It’s from experience,” says Levin. “So when I see Marxist Islamists doing what they’re doing, I take them on. I expose them.”
“We do not want these poisonous people destroying what our ancestors have worked for — our founders.”
But that’s exactly what’s about to unfold in New York City under Mayor Mamdani, with his socialist agenda poised to wring the city’s capitalist core from the nation’s economic capital.
Levin warns: “It matters what happens in New York because [Marxist Islamists] are organizing in the states and in the cities across the country.”
The plan doesn’t end with New York City. It won’t stop until America herself — and everything that makes her exceptional — is erased.

Mark Levin reveals the leader he says could save Britain
Leftist policies have gutted Europe, with the U.K. and France serving as prime examples — once proud bastions of Western civilization, now barely recognizable as native cultures are systematically eroded under the guise of unchecked mass migration. Free speech is a relic of the past, crushed by tyrannical censors. Sky-high taxes strangle the working man, and suffocating bureaucratic overreach is the hallmark of these failing socialist regimes.
U.K. Prime Minister Keir Starmer sits at the helm of Britain’s descent into its dystopian nightmare.
“This is the guy that allowed these gang rapes by Pakistani immigrants of English girls that went on for years,” Mark Levin says, adding that under Starmer, “Crime is through the roof and mostly committed by recent immigrants” who are valued above natives.
England is a picture of what the United States was hurtling toward under Democratic rule. If Donald Trump hadn’t pulled our nation back from the cliff, Levin predicts we would’ve seen “the end” of America.
England needs its own Donald Trump now — a party that can effectively fight tyranny. Levin believes the Tories — the Conservative and Unionist Party — are the answer to Britain’s woes.
The party’s leader, Kemi Badenoch, is a woman Levin deeply respects and admires — a “superstar,” he calls her.
“She is brilliant. She is courageous. She is trying to defend Western culture and principles in Britain — the home of Western culture and principles,” he says.
He then plays a clip from Badenoch’s fiery parliamentary takedown of Keir Starmer’s weak-kneed Israel policy during a Middle East debate on October 14, during which she lambasted Labour’s appeasement of Hamas and vowed unyielding Tory solidarity with Israel’s fight against Islamist terror.
“The response from some in the West — the equivocation, the indulgence in whataboutery, and the drawing of false equivalence — shows how far moral clarity has eroded. And we have got a job to do here at home, Mr. Speaker, to fix this,” she fired.
She went on to praise President Trump for masterminding the Gaza ceasefire and condemned Starmer and his spineless Labour cronies for “rewarding terrorism” by recognizing Palestine sans hostage releases, for making “the wrong decisions time and again” that gutted Britain’s Middle East clout, and for their mealy-mouthed weakness that only emboldens Hamas butchers.
“She is fantastic,” Levin says.
“I hope she becomes prime minister,” he adds.

Campuses cry, ‘Save Gaza!’ but say NOTHING when Hamas executes Palestinians
Since Hamas’ brutal invasion of Israel on October 7, 2023, pro-Palestine protests have erupted across the Western world. Two years in, these riotous events calling for the death of America and Israel, the fall of the West, and jihadi violence continue to rage.
But Mark Levin can’t figure something out: If these protesters are so concerned about the Palestinian people, why aren’t they upset about Hamas’ recent brutality against Palestinians?
Protesters are in the streets screaming about Israel starving Gazans — “a lie,” Levin says — but they don’t bat an eye when Hamas, just hours after releasing hostages as part of the U.S.-brokered ceasefire and peace deal, orchestrates mass public executions of Palestinians.
Graphic videos and eyewitness accounts show masked Hamas gunmen dragging blindfolded and bound Palestinian men, whom Hamas deemed dissenters, into public squares in Gaza City and executing them at close range with high-powered rifles. Since the ceasefire began on October 10, numerous Palestinians have been killed in similar executions, including beatings, hangings in streets, and purges of suspected spies or anti-Hamas militias.
Further, the Doghmush clan, one of Gaza’s largest and most powerful Palestinian families and a longstanding enemy of Hamas, was targeted. A gang of Hamas military men infiltrated the family’s estate disguised as medical staff and proceeded to slaughter numerous clan members.
“Very few people are saying anything about this. I mean, this is coming out of reports out of the Middle East. It’s coming out of reports out of Gaza,” Levin says.
He wonders: Where’s the outrage from the same protesters who flooded campuses over false claims of Israeli genocide — while Hamas now unleashes a documented “reign of terror” on its own people in the territory Israel just surrendered?
Now Netanyahu’s threat to continue military operations against Hamas makes sense. The recent executions and Hamas’ refusal to return deceased hostages points to what Levin has been saying about the terrorist regime from the get-go: You can’t negotiate with them.
He laments the partial Israel Defense Forces withdrawal to enable the hostage release, as that’s what allowed Hamas to regroup and terrorize Gaza with public executions.
Levin warns that Israel will now insist on permanent security zones: “They’re going to have a defense security area — whether the Arab countries and Muslim countries like it or not, whether we like it or not — to protect their country. And they’re going to insist on it. This is what Netanyahu has said. This is what they’re going to do.”
