Hi Mark!
Fluffy bunny question:
It's your favorite week of the year, post Super Bowl week, when you often subbed for Rush. Did you enjoy the game? The halftime show? The choice of Bad Bunny to perform may have been the biggest "Screw you!" to one's fan base I've ever seen.
Care to share any behind the scenes Rush Super Bowl stories?
Thanks for all you do.
By the way, I still remember, at least I think I do, that you were guest hosting the day they pursued the Boston Marathon bombers!

Greetings Mark,
The new EU-India free trade agreement, called the "mother of all deals" by Cruella von der Leyen, includes a "mobility framework" that allows movement of Indian workers, students, etc into Europe. Obviously, this enables PM Modi to dump surplus population into a continent which is already a demographic basket case. Is this the final nail in the coffin for Europe?
Be well,
Peter

What do you make of Rupert Lowe's Pakistani Muslim Rape Gang Inquiry?
It has not been covered in the UK mainstream media, despite some truly harrowing testimony and studiously avoided by Reform UK, our so called government in waiting, because of their schism with Lowe.
We continue to await the Labour government enacting an official inquiry but I suspect that may be a very long wait indeed.
Keep well Mark.

Dear Mark:
I hope the French nurses are keeping your spirits up and you get to my question prior to flouncing off in a queenie huff. As you've been warning of the Wests demise for a sod bollicking quarter century and things only seem to be getting worse, do you feel as though you've been shouting into the void all these years? If you had it to do all over again, would you have done anything different (and possibly have avoided multiple heart attacks and lawsuits?).
Take good care, and would it be possible for the Queen Mary !! and its Steyn Cruise passengers to remain at sea forever?

I found it fascinating to hear your discussion of Robert Maxwell last week, just one day after reading John Le Carre's discussion of his final days in The Pigeon Tunnel. Le Carre/David Cornwall came at it from a different angle than you, focusing on Maxwell's desperate attempts to capitalize on alleged opportunities in a then rapidly changing Russia to make enough money quickly enough to pay off his debts. Needless to say, it didn't work. Thoughts?

Today's installment of Live Around the Planet casts a particularly dark shadow over the "dying west." From Psychotranny, to Islamostabber, to COVID, to bestiality, to Iranian nukes, the darkness of the world is further exposed.
What would Shakespeare say of the madness of our age?
Perhaps, "False of heart, light of ear, bloody of hand; hog in sloth, fox in stealth, wolf in greediness, dog in madness, lion in prey."
Health and peace to you, Mark, in the midst of all the madness, tragedy and comedy.

Another insightful column today from your keenly observant but unstable perch afar. So grateful you remain with us to continue your words of woe, delivered with unmatched humor.
The Misses and I finally found the time to watch "Melania" and can now see why the "professional" critics unanimously pan it, while we rubes give it a near perfect score. TDS continues to expose our condescending elites.

Dear Mark--
I hear that 18 homeless people have died in New York City this winter because the new mayor refused to shelter them involuntarily to prevent exposure.
The mayor is receiving criticism for his inaction, but was it really inaction? There could be a cold calculus in play here. Letting homeless exposure run its course takes 18 people off the streets for free while letting the mayor stick to his talking points. A rather gruesome win-win, no?

Greetings Mark- hope all is well with you, wherever you may be.
New York City voters have gotten a taste of the Full Mamdani as the latest Islamo- Commie mayor of a major city dealt with a major snowstorm. The body count looks to be about 20 formerly homeless wretches who couldn't be convinced to come in from the excruciating cold of the frigid streets.
Meanwhile the garbage is not being picked up and the snow piles are covered with filth of one sort or another. Our once great city is pretty much unlivable even for the wealthy Libs.
In any case, would love to know your thoughts on our situation, given that this is just Zohran's first month at the mansion.

Dear Mark,
Some years ago, I remember reading about "the coming turbulence" in Germany. (Maybe you wrote it?) The point being made was that the migrants who were paying taxes, and were seeing their money go towards the natives currently in retirement, would eventually realize that none of their ilk were currently retired and they would revolt. Does this sound familiar? Any thoughts on the theory?

Hello Mark,
I watched just a bit of the opening ceremonies of the Olympics. Some beautiful spots of what was once culture in Italy. Sadly, with the fertility rates of citizen Italians spiraling towards 1.0, seemed more like viewing a time capsule rather than a celebration of an enduring culture.

Have no fear. Muslims aren't shy about killing their own. When you have an ideology that caters to the basest instincts of man, the bloodlust doesn't evaporate in the absence of infidels.

As soon as I heard of the tragedy in B.C. I figured it was a trans teen, especially as residential killings before. But the CBC immediately reacted by saying there are 10x more shootings in the U.S. Wonder what what will be said by Carney at today's caucus meeting. How can we profit from this? I also hear Epstein might have buried bodies near his Arizona estate. Any good news out there Mark?

How long will we be unable to point out that the transgender movement is driven by and of benefit to violent, heterosexual male perverts? Autogynephilia is a sickness and has nothing to do with believing onesself born into the "wrong" body. Only a tiny minority of them seem to believe that they can become the gender they have chosen, and such a delusion is dangerous. Especially when combined with Hormone Replacement Therapy and SSRI's. But the majority, particularly those men exploiting people's confusion to compete in women's sports and invade women's spaces are cynical heterosexuals trying to see what they can get away with. And those cynics drive that minority of confused, sexually dismorphic teens that would likely end up as gay to mutilate and drug themselves rather than get therapy that might help them adjust to their drives. Tolerance of autogynephilic heterosexual men needs to END NOW and the quacks that provide drugs and surgery to confused minors need to lose their medical licenses and be put into prison.

The despicable mass shooting incident in Tumbler Ridge follows a certain pattern. Notice how your typical homicidal nut job almost always picks soft targets. A school, a shopping mall, that sort of thing. They never seem to go after an outlaw biker gang's clubhouse or a Mafiosi's compound, and so miss a chance to prove their manhood (Oh sorry, Justin Trudeau's here to correct me, humanhood) with crazy guns blazing. Add cowardice to their long list of vices.
