Mark Levin railed against the latest charges brought against former President Donald Trump.
The Fox News host blasted Democrats, the Biden administration, and the Department of Justice for indicting Trump on seven counts, alleging his mishandling of classified documents.

“President Trump is 76 years old. If the Department of Justice gets its way, he will die in federal prison. Just by one of these counts: conspiracy to obstruct justice, which has a 20-year maximum sentence,” Levin said while appearing on Hannity. “This is a disgusting, disgusting mark on American history for the future to come by these bandits in the White House, by the Democrat Party that don’t play fair anymore. They don’t want to just win elections. They want to take control of this country. They want one-party rule.”
Levin noted that Attorney General Merrick Garland set the stage for the indictment when he handpicked special counsel Jack Smith to investigate Trump.
“He made the decision to indict the former president, and they made the decision to interfere in this election,” Levin said, raising his voice while referencing Garland and the Democrats. “You want to talk about an insurrection? This is an insurrection. And that’s exactly what is going on here.”
The host of Life, Liberty & Levin also criticized President Joe Biden’s hand in the indictment of Trump, questioning if it was “some kind of sick joke on the American people?”
“Joe Biden says he never told them what to do. Joe Biden had to sign off on this becoming a National Archives case to have it go to the Department of Justice. Who does he think he’s lying to? The American people?” Levin said. “This is a guy that’s got documents from the time he was in the U.S. Senate, for God’s sakes, in his garage.”
“There is no law. What’s going on here is a disgusting disgrace. It is war on Trump. It is war on the Republican Party. It is a war on the republic,” he said. “The radical Left is doing what the radical Left does while they cover up for Biden, the way they covered up for Hillary.”
Levin pointed to the double standard, saying the DOJ has been weaponized against Trump.

“If Donald Trump is to be charged like this, Hillary Clinton should have been charged with 10,000 counts of obstruction because that’s how many emails she destroyed. And five counts of destroying cellphones because that’s how many cellphones they destroyed,” Levin said. “I’m done and I am sick of it!”
The DOJ has yet to announce the indictment or unseal details of the charges against the former president. Trump has been summoned to appear at the federal courthouse in Miami on Tuesday at 3 p.m.
