I wonder what you think about Tucker Carlson telling Nick Fuentes that he thinks Christian Zionists are the most evil people on the planet. I guess that includes you. Qatari money?

It seems that ICE's focus is primarily on hispanic and Latin American illegals, avoiding the muslim communities. As we have seen from Europe, Islam is not compatible with the West and it needs to be curtailed.
Why doesn't Trump seem interested in the NYC mayoral campaign?

Maybe I am being naive, but if New Yorkers want Mamdani, why not let them have him?

Hello Mark,
So, the socialist running for mayor in New York City is catching on with the voters by promising free stuff. Wow! Imagine that.
How's it going to happen? Well, the crowd at his rally shouts "tax the rich". Why didn't anyone think of this before?
No kings! No authoritarians! However, it's apparently fine if the majority coerces the 1% or 2% to pay for all their freebies.
The social welfare states in Europe depend on relatively high tax rates levied on all citizens. Bernie Sanders and his ilk never mention this. Their promise of a free lunch will come crashing down as it always does.

Hi Mark,
On this Day of the Turkish Republic, do you share my high regard for Trump's crafty statesmanship in dealing with Erdogan?
In the recent Oval meeting, Trump led by praising Erdogan's cooperation on releasing an imprisoned American pastor during his first term - in reality this was a tactful reminder to Erdogan of how Trump won that fight. He also praised Erdogan for taking Syria - a clever way of pressuring Turkey to take responsibility for stability in Syria. And he nonchalantly said Erdogan knows a lot about rigging elections - a reminder to Erdogan that Trump is ready to question his legitimacy if he proves unfriendly.
Will be interesting to contrast how Pope Leo handles Erdogan when he visits in November.
Stay well, stay free!

Are the stronger parts of Europe still holding out against the rapey, socialist, islamist, globalist powers?
Before the amazingly uplifting Iberian Steyn-at-Sea, we visited friends in Central Europe, where since our last visit, pre-2000, they had transformed from a post-Soviet-Bloc, 2nd-world country, into a clean, orderly, top-tier destination.
In contrast, our post-cruise visit to London and the UK revealed a nation that had descended along the reverse course!
We used to hold out hope for Alberta, the Texas of Canada.
Have we reached the point where we should give up the hope that Central Europe may be a defensible stronghold in this fight?

Hi Mark!
Can you explain to this American if there's any hope of political change in the UK? I see constantly how "Starmer is on the ropes", yet it seems to me he'll just wait it out, which sadly has proven to be the most effective strategy of all leftist pols around the world. Did Tommy Robinson's rally have any real impact?
Thanks for all you do, it's always a pleasure listening, and today I'll be able to do it live!

Hi Mark. Glad you are behind the golden microphone today.
Say, what do you make of Bill Gates' about face on his "You're all gonna die from the weather" outlook on climate change?
Do you think he is sincere or is he simply pivoting to focus people on the important mandate that we should all eat more bugs to reduce cow fart emissions?

Wait, so am I to understand you're healthy enough to have jumped the pond? Or perhaps I misread your time delineation. If accurate, that's great news, Mark! Maybe you'll get to enjoy some peaceful calls to prayer from the religion of peace which has peacefully invaded and is currently peacefully pacifying Western Europe.
Anywho, back home in the States the Democrats are doubling down on their woke fever, as the Bernie/AOC-rage tour mobilizes their base of highly educated women, elderly hippies, and fringe sexual deviants who've been convinced they're the latest civil rights cause celeb.
Is the Left's strategy a continuation of Obama's "strength through diversity" campaign of malcontent groupings or simply an uncontrollable TDS knee-jerk? Either way, outside of deep Blue cities, this radicalization can't be a winning strategy, even if they're only behind two points in Iowa, right?
Here's to your (hopefully) improving health. We need your courageous and insightful voice now more than ever!

Don't you wish that Eric Smarm-well never shuts up? He is so good for the Republican party and the MAGA movement that they barely need say anything.
When not doing the Fang Fang Bang, he basically is telling his party that anyone who is not intent on destroying the property of the USA, funded privately I might add so not a drain on the taxpayer, should not even think about representing the Dems as a presidential candidate.
It's perfection! The Dems are absolutely the party of destruction, destroying our cities, our states, our chances of racial harmony, our schools from pre-K all the way up to the 26th grade, our universities, our media, our borders etc etc
oh - and most of all - our moral compass.

Mark,
I hope you are well.
The UK Home Office under the guidance of Muslim Home Secretary, Shabana Mahmood has reached new depths of ineptitude in relation to a predatory Ethiopian dinghy boy.
To summarise:
8 days after his arrival, the dinghy boy sexually assaults a 14 year old girl and a woman.
This facilitated the ongoing protests by the so called pink ladies outside the Bell Hotel in Epping.
The Brit Wanker coppers arrest the dinghy boy.
So far so good.
He is convicted and sentenced to 12 months imprisonment.
He is released in error and despite trying to point this out to HMP Chelmsford, they refuse to let him back in.
He is "on the run" for 2 days and eventually re-arrested.
He has now been deported to Ethiopia but with £500 of taxpayers' money in his pocket in lieu of a lengthy asylum appeal.
No doubt he'll be back soon enough on another dinghy.
If it wasn't for the fact it is all true, you couldn't make it up.
If Rush was here, he'd say it is time wouldn't he?
Keep well Mark.

Greetings Mark- hope that you're feeling well and in great spirits. Two questions today from the Belly of the Beast in what may become Mamdani country:
1. Looks like Bill Gates has thrown in the towel and is now admitting that he's giving up on the Climate Hoax.
At one point Gates actually said "Zero is what we need to aim for. To stop the warming and avoid the worst effects of climate change-and these effects will be very bad-humans need to stop adding greenhouse gases to the atmosphere."
To what do you attribute this turn around? A better grift? Fear of Trump World?
2. In the likely event that Commie Hamas Mamdani does get to be mayor, what effect will it have on the rest of the Country?
