7/8/25 - Politics Amidst Tragedy: Heroes and Hypocrisy in Texas

On Tuesday’s Mark Levin Show, the Texas flood has caused immense heartbreak, with over 100 dead and more than 160 missing. Among the tragic stories are two young sisters, aged 13 and 11, found drowned but holding hands. Mother Nature can be a monster. Also, President Trump has had enough of Putin. Putin is a genocidal maniac responsible for slaughtering Ukrainian civilians, but there are some in Fake MAGA who root for Russia. Trump has stated bluntly that he won’t tolerate Putin’s actions any longer. Later, there’s been a lot of buzz about Jeffrey Epstein and an alleged "list" of people tied to his crimes, but it’s all speculation. The FBI has investigated, but no major new revelations have been confirmed. Social media keeps the topic alive with conspiracy theories. In addition, the Supreme Court, in an 8-1 decision, upheld Trump’s plan to reduce the federal workforce, overturning a Ninth Circuit ruling. The order affirmed the president’s authority to manage the executive branch without congressional approval, citing separation of powers.  Afterward, the welfare state's growth, seen as new constitutional rights, obscures increasing control and regulation, failing to deliver promised equity. This strengthens the ruling class, diminishes individual and societal rights, and erodes compromise, unlike the Founders’ positive power approach, which supports liberty and peaceful resolution.
