Mark Levin Says New McCabe and Rosenstein Reports Prove ‘Silent Coup’ Claims

Conservative radio talk show host Mark Levin argued on his radio program that revelations by former FBI Deputy Director Andrew McCabe about Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein have proven his long-standing assertion that “deep state” operatives sought to orchestrate a “silent coup” against President Donald Trump.

“The media has finally caught up and are reporting on what was described on this program as a ‘silent coup,’” Levin said on his radio show on Tuesday.

“In March of 2017, this program deduced from the media leaks that a rogue operation within our own government was working to prevent, and then remove, a president of the United States!” he said. “The fallacious basis they laid out for the investigation is unraveling as each of them turns on each other.”

Levin — who served as chief of staff to Attorney General Edwin Meese in the Reagan Justice Department — went on to describe McCabe, former FBI Director James Comey, and former FBI General Counsel James Baker all as “leakers and liars.”

He explained to his audience that he had surmised that the leakers were at the highest levels in the DOJ and FBI based on the information being given to the media.

The radio personality noted that Baker is currently under criminal investigation for leaking information to the media.

The Department of Justice’s inspector general also made a criminal referral last spring to the DOJ regarding McCabe for his failure to tell the truth to federal investigators about contacts he had with the media.

Levin characterized Rosenstein as a “coward and a liar.”
