Hi Mark. Glad to hear you are back amongst the living. In the matter of Government v Shutdown, I am still waiting for when the average US citizen notices even the slightest impact in their daily activities. So far the water still comes out of the faucets at my house; the air is still breathable, and the power is still on. One would think all these things would have vanished given the left's hyperbolioc pearl clutching. It is so tiresome.
Thank you again for all you do.

Hi Mark,
I do hope you are feeling slightly less mediocre than you have done in recent weeks.
Last week in your tribute marking the centenary of Margaret Thatcher's birth, you summarised her era "as a mere interlude in national suicide".
Do you fear that at some point in the future Donald Trump's presidential terms might come to be characterised in the same way?
All the very best,
John Creasey

Mark,
I hope you are well.
My head scratcher this week is centred around Pakistan.
The admission by the Brit Wanker coppers of the Metropolitan Police of a Pakistani Muslim rape gangs cover up would ordinarily see the Metropolitan Police Commissioner be called upon to resign. That happens to be the egregious Mayor of London, Sir Sadiq Khan. A Pakistani.
I have been locked out of my X account since Saturday for a pile on by, you guessed it, Pakistani Muslims.
X determined that a post from 4th September I put up reminding the world that the Pakistani Muslim rape gangs were still busy raping vulnerable white British girls amounted to violent speech.
I have appealed and remain locked out of my account.
I'm now inclined to suggest that we have 3 tier policing.
Platinum for Pakistani Muslim Rape gangs.
Gold for illegal invaders, including wannabe gang rapists.
Tin for the taxpayer funding it all.
Am I missing something Mark? Is diversity not our strength after all?
Keep well Mark.

Hello Mark,
I am enjoying listening to your audio version of America Alone, which I read when it first came out. It was as impactful to me as Prof Foot's Boom, Bust and Echo.
My question for today deals with the passing of Diane Keaton. She was terrific on the silver screen in both comedies and dramas. Did you ever meet her? Your thoughts?

Les Miserables just turned 40 this month-were you in London for the open?
Can you speak to how the show overcame the early negative reviews? Also, can you speak to what it was like for Patti LuPone, who played Fantine, since she was the lone American in the original cast? Excuse my total ignorance on the topic but were Americans accepted in the West End at the time?

Mark, On behalf of the Montenegrin brigand community as well as the Amalgamated Brotherhood of Courtroom Doormen, it is bloody great to have you back.
My question relates to protocols for the 2026 Mark Steyn Cruise. As we make our way next October from Quebec City to Halifax and then on to New York City, I had an idea for a way to break new ground in heartfelt acts of obeisance to the First Nations.
What would you think of starting each of your panel discussions on board the Queen Mary II with river bed and ocean floor acknowledgements to tribal seafarers? Can you give me one good reason why these absolutely critical rituals should be confined exclusively to dry land?

Dear Mr. Steyn,
Good afternoon.
Please try to stream NYC local am radio "Conservative" talk shows in the afternoon - not for their content, but for the callers who are destroying these hosts on multiple stations, for insisting the Republican candidate for NYC mayor drop out of the race.
The mayoral race in NYC is a disaster, and deeply disturbing, however, as laughter is healing, and the regular callers, who are normally pleasant, seem to have expected these "conservative hacks I mean hosts," to be supportive of the only Republican running for mayor, the callers are irate and expressing their disgust to the hosts in no uncertain terms.
The days of Rush, you filling in for Rush, gone... thankfully I have you through this club of which I cherish. Stay well...laughter is good for the soul.
Yours in prayer,
Cara from NJ

Dear Mark,
I am a long-time listener, viewer and fan, but first-time Clubland Q&A questioner.
The French playwright, Pierre-Augustin Caron de Beaumarchais, wrote in The Barber of Seville, "Today, what is not worth saying, we sing." The quotation attributed to Voltaire tends along the lines: "Anything that is too stupid to be spoken is sung."
In your experience of music and lyrics, do you find this to be generally true, or possibly relevant (or not) in certain cases? Perhaps we sing things that are also worth saying. Did you ever speak song lyrics to a lovely lass that yielded an auspicious outcome? There are a great number of promising selections available in the Herman's Hermits catalog of hits.
I've noticed that you sometimes chuckle when wished good health, but I do hope that you continue to gain strength during your recovery. As others have said, thank you for all that you do on so many fronts.
All best wishes,

In Blair's video promoting Big Brother's digital ID tracking system, did you notice his primary justification was to assist law ENFORCEMENT?
As if he (and Elison) think giving the State more tools to ENFORCE their edicts is something all proud Westerners should warmly embrace. Have we really reached the boiling point without realizing it, ready to be served up on a silver platter to our State overlords?

Hi Mark,
I was speaking with a friend who works in finance here in the US, and does some work in Europe. I asked him what he and his colleagues think of the immigration problem in Europe and how it affects business. He said it's a non issue and "doesn't move the needle". What are your thoughts on this response?

Greetings Mark,
European elites are committing civilizational malpractice combined with deliberate treason against the indigenous European population. This fact can no longer be hidden behind pathetic platitudes about "diversity is our strength".
Given that the cards are all on the table now, isn't it time for Europeans to actually revolt and overthrow the class of traitors that is systematically destroying their civilization? Is it now or never?
Thanks,
Peter

Dear Mark, will the Prince Andrew scandal finally bring about the ever-approaching "fall of the monarchy" or will it just be business as usual in a couple weeks?
A lot of public ire is over the King and late Queen's refusal to "do anything" about Andrew's blatantly corrupt activities over decades. It's starting to raise questions about just what is the point of a monarchy whose raison d'etre seems to be never to "do anything" about any abuse no matter how outrageous, lest it provoke a "constitutional crisis".
Well, the "constitutional crisis" seems to be arriving anyway, only it's not because the king spoke in defense of the people being brutalized by rapists and their political enablers but because of Prince Andrew's Wiener.
