Mark Levin analyzes the America First movement and how it relates to our modern overseas threats on 'Life, Liberty & Levin.'
During a Sunday episode of "Life, Liberty, and Levin," Mark Levin warned of the threat that China and Russia pose to national security.

"Threatening Japan, threatening the Philippines, as I speak, threatening Taiwan, devouring Hong Kong," Levin said regarding China's behavior.

"The relentless drive to enforce conformity within the military with a preferred leftist narrative is troubling, especially as it reinforces this Marxist tendency," Levin said.
Levin also pointed to the military's struggle to attract new recruits as a national security issue. He cited obesity, drug use, and the military leadership's wokeness all as factors leading to poor recruiting.
