Campaign Calls Out Marjorie Taylor Greene Over Another Nazi Comparison\">prominent conservative commentator<\/a> and bestselling author, has released a new book titled *On Power*, set for release on July 29. In this book,Levin examines past examples of both positive and negative uses of power,referencing biblical mentions of power and focusing particularly on what he describes as a liberal attempt to undermine former President Donald Trump&#8217;s second term. Levin highlights how Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/boulder-attack-shows-its-right-to-revoke-visas-for-anti-us-views\/\" title=\"Boulder Attack Shows It&#039;s Right To Revoke Visas For Anti-US Views\">teh biden administration<\/a> have used judicial appointments and legal measures to block Trump&#8217;s policies, characterizing this as &#8220;negative power&#8221; exercised by a &#8220;judicial oligarchy.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Levin also discusses efforts by Democrats and the liberal media to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/government-cant-solve-our-cancel-culture-problem\/\" title=\"... Can\u2019t Solve our Cancel Culture Problem\">suppress free speech<\/a> through &#8220;wokeism&#8221; and cancel culture. He argues that free speech is essential for all other freedoms but is increasingly under threat from powerful factions within academia, the media, and the Democratic Party. Drawing from his background as a constitutional lawyer and former Justice Department chief of staff, Levin praises the Founding Fathers&#8217; positive use of power in establishing the U.S. Constitution but warns that the Constitution itself faces attacks, such as attempts to pack the Supreme Court.<\/p>\n<p>In addition, Levin connects the current political struggle to his previous work, *American Marxism*, noting that progressive figures like Bernie Sanders and Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez seek to reshape America&#8217;s constitutional and societal framework toward a Marxist vision. He emphasizes that controlling government power equates to controlling rights and freedoms, which those in power use to enforce conformity and suppress opposition.<\/p>\n<p>*On Power* is Levin&#8217;s critique of what he sees as a concerted Democratic effort to consolidate power and diminish individual liberties, with a call to recognize and resist these &#8220;negative&#8221; forces.  <\/p>\n<p class=\"readmore\">\n    <button onclick=\"showReadMore()\" id=\"readmorebtn\">Read more&#8230;<\/button>\n<\/p>\n<hr id=\"line\">\n<span id=\"more\"><\/p>\n<p><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><\/p>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><span class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-button\"><i class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-icon td-icon-mobile\"><\/i><\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><span class=\"tdb-header-search-button-mob dropdown-toggle\" data-toggle=\"dropdown\"><i class=\"tdb-mobile-search-icon td-icon-search\"><\/i><\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><span class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-button\"><i class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-icon td-icon-mobile\"><\/i><\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\">\n<div class=\"tdb-drop-down-search\" aria-labelledby=\"td-header-search-button\">\n<div class=\"tdb-drop-down-search-inner\">\n<form method=\"get\" class=\"tdb-search-form\" action=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/\"><\/form>\n<div class=\"tdb-aj-search\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/#\" role=\"button\" aria-label=\"Search\" class=\"tdb-head-search-btn dropdown-toggle\" data-toggle=\"dropdown\"><i class=\"tdb-search-icon td-icon-search\"><\/i><\/a><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\">\n<h1 class=\"tdb-title-text\">Mark Levin captures Democratic assault on Trump in &lsquo;On Power&rsquo;<\/h1>\n<div><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-title-line\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\">\n<div id=\"Brid_2180496\" class=\"tpd-featured-video bridtv\"><\/div>\n<p>Few authors have the knack of capturing current events and the public&rsquo;s attention like conservative megastar Mark Levin.
