Mark Levin's Attacks and Accusations

• 📿 Levin also attacked Jack Pobic for holding up a rosary and for associating with Myrin Gaines, whom Levin labeled as anti-Semitic due to a shirt Gaines wore.
• 🚫 Levin called for Pobic to be banned from future events, a move Kelly characterized as Levin attempting to "bismerch" Pobic.

Megyn Kelly's Retaliation

Shifting Power Dynamics and Donor Influence
