Conservatives Must Resurrect Tea Party Principles For The 2024 Election Cycle
If conservatives can reject political trends of the past eight years and return to Tea Party principles, we may just save our republic.Democrats weaponizing the IRS against political opponents is nothing new
Weaponized bureaucrats are nothing new in politics. There is a history of Democrats using the IRS for political gain. Franklin Roosevelt used the IRS against Andrew Mellon, who'd been the treasury secretary under Coolidge and was a public servant. There was nothing on Mellon. Roosevelt tried for 10 years to put Mellon in jail, and even ordered his Treasury Secretary Henry Morgenthau to go after Mellon. At the end of the trial, the federal judge said, "you don't have anything [on] him." John Kennedy used the IRS to go after conservative groups. Lyndon B. Johnson used the IRS to go after his political opponents, and he used the FBI to tap the phones of civil rights leaders like Martin Luther King. LBJ sent the FBI into the democratic convention in Atlantic City to monitor King and other civil rights leaders.
According to the Washington Post, the richest 1% are hiding more than 20% of their income from the IRS. "If they are hiding it," Mark Levin asked, "then how does the IRS know about it?" Why doesn't it tax the hidden funds? Watch the clip for more from "LevinTV" on BlazeTV.

Will THIS little-known legal defense strategy RESCUE Trump?
As his four criminal cases get closer to trial, former President Donald Trump could likely use some help.
And Mark Levin claims a certain legal defense strategy could be just what rescues him.
This legal defense strategy is called an anti-suit injunction, which could cease litigation being brought in D.C.
According to Levin, an anti-suit injunction is “when a judge issues an order telling the prosecution or another party, the plaintiff, to cease from prosecuting their case until the case in her courtroom is completed. After that, they can pursue their case.”
In this instance, it’s crucially important for several reasons.
The first reason is because the first federal indictments were brought related to the documents case.
“Now the documents case was brought before the wrong grand jury, in the wrong venue in Washington D.C. Why? Because Jack Smith is a sleazeball. Because Merrick Garland is a sleazeball,” Levin explains.
“The special counsel wanted an indictment, and he might not have gotten one in Florida, so he used the D.C. grand jury to do just that,” because otherwise “Trump and the other defendants will have a very strong case of prosecutorial misconduct here and this violates the Department of Justice rules — which it does.”
Levin believes that because of this, Trump’s lawyers should “be bringing a motion over jury misconduct.”
Levin’s second reason applies to what’s happening in Georgia, which is “very critical as well.”
“You have due process procedures in Georgia that mimic what’s in the federal Constitution. But the federal Constitution also applies to what happened in Georgia,” Levin explains.
“It was very weird, wasn’t it? We wake up, we’re told that the president is going to be facing grand jury, possible indictments,” he continues, adding that something really weird happened that morning.
“The indictment with all the charges, 98 pages, had already been posted on the official government website of the clerk of the court.”
That’s when Fani Willis “desperately” rushed through the rest of the process, before indicting him late at night.
“She violated the due process rights of 19 individuals,” which included the former president, Rudy Giuliani, Mark Meadows, and Jenna Ellis.
“Why? Because the grand jury indicted those people based exactly on what was posted that morning. So, the question is, what did that prosecutor tell that grand jury?” Levin asks.
