On May 29, 2026, Mark Levin appeared on Fox News's Fox & Friends to argue against the Iranian regime. But while he maintains his traditional cable news presence, his brand of neoconservative politics is drawing sharp fire from key figures in the podcast world.
Speaking on The Shawn Ryan Show, guest Megyn Kelly took aim at Mark Levin's wing of the conservative movement, labeling the pro-Israel faction of MAGA as "that one core part of MAGA, which is the Mark Levin party". Megyn Kelly argued that this faction is propped up by AIPAC lobbyists who buy loser politicians while ignoring the changing tide among voters.
The disagreement has turned deeply personal. Megyn Kelly pointed out that Mark Levin has lashed out at her, host Shawn Ryan, and Tucker Carlson with extreme labels. "Mark Levin calls people like you and me and Tucker the woke Reich," Megyn Kelly said, adding that she has never understood how they can argue they are woke. Instead, she argued that it is Mark Levin's faction that is behaving like woke leftists by relying on identity politics and baseless accusations.
With the ideological rift over foreign policy widening, Mark Levin's hawkish stance is increasingly at odds with the populist right. As independent podcasters continue to command massive audiences, the struggle to define the foreign policy of the modern conservative movement will only intensify.
