Principles and Their Consequences, Political Entertainment Edition

Whatever it might once have been, or may someday be, at this moment Fox News — that media entity as a whole, as may be judged, with total fairness, by its most popular and unfettered content — is essentially a fount of quasi-Soviet propaganda served with neo-Nazi overtones. It is an apologist for genocidal terrorism, a willing mouthpiece for messaging framed by the...

Public Advocacy and Hypocrisy

I saw a headline from Fox News (where else?) declaring that Mark Levin — former “conservative radio firebrand,” now Republican establishment populist for cash — has said that Joe Biden is the closest thing to a dictator that America has ever had. That’s rich, coming from a man who, just five years ago, publicly sold his soul and his former Tea Party audience...

Mark Levin

Has ever a man built a more solid reputation as a principled non-conformist within an environment dominated by opportunistic conformism, only to demolish that reputation in order to sell himself as spare parts, in a shorter span of time? Has ever a man been more rhetorically effective at publicly attacking false declarations of “conservatism,” only to turn around and become the biggest abuser...

Hot Takes on Senate Impeachment Vote: Part 1

Mitt Romney has voted to remove Donald Trump from office, which is consistent with his earlier vote to call more witnesses. This shows that the earlier vote was not just a butt-covering show-vote, but that he sincerely disapproved of the GOP establishment’s circling of the wagons for Trump. Here is radio host and complete and utter sell-out Mark Levin — establishment bootlicker extraordinaire...

Oh my G-D!

Perhaps I should say, “Oy vey!” Mark Levin, who, as I have sadly chronicled, has transformed himself from the most prominent media critic of Donald Trump (and of the GOP establishment, including its media flagship, Fox News) into the most embarrassingly eager shoeshine boy for Trump (and defender of the GOP status quo, and star host on its media flagship, Fox News), has...

“All Talk” Radio

Every U.S. election cycle, Mark Levin, the most intelligent and politically knowledgeable of the major conservative radio hosts, has warned that if the Republican Party establishment dared to foist another one of its anti-conservative, “bipartisan appeal” nominees on the grassroots voters yet again, then boy oh boy it would be almost, just about, nearly time to take a serious look at maybe thinking...

Sell-out’s Remorse?

I see on Right Scoop that Mark Levin, after a predictable delay to figure out how to say this without losing Donnie’s affection, has weighed in on his leash-holder’s decision to abandon America’s Kurdish allies to a massacre and then brag about it on Twitter while complaining about how the Kurds didn’t help the U.S. at Normandy (yes, he really said that). And,...

Let’s Play “Find the Socialist,” Shall We?

I see that the “Trump right” (i.e., the nationalist left) is all up in arms today, half hooting and half aghast, at the latest Marxist abomination from the revolution’s new mascot, Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez.  From Right Scoop: The latest socialist idea from the mouth of Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez is to put the government in charge of basic banking to use the US Post Office to...

The Greatest Joke in American History

Mark Levin hosted a special edition of his Fox News program Sunday night devoted to ranting about Robert Mueller’s investigation into Russian interference in the 2016 election. The “money quote” from the show — how ironically apt that expression seems in this era of Trump sycophancy among the “conservative media” — was quoted in the headline for Right Scoop’s tagalong trumpery: “Mark Levin...

Psychological Projection, Demonstrated

Right Scoop, a regular booster and friend of Mark Levin, posted the radio host’s plea to Israeli listeners to re-elect Benjamin Netanyahu. Halfway through his slightly meandering but basically reasonable rant — the topic of which, remember, was the virtues of Benjamin Netanyahu and the desirability of his re-election in Israel — Levin suddenly veered off into this: I feel the same way...
