One Year Ago
Promoting the Perps
Today is the first anniversary of the shooting of the Republican presidential candidate while on stage in Butler, Pennsylvania. Once it became clear that the hit had not succeeded, the awful corrupt American media lost all interest in the story, which remains the most under-investigated presidential assassination attempt of the last hundred years. Curious. Here is the column I wrote a year ago with a few annotations twelve months on: Let's cut to the chase - the US Secret Service: In on it? Or just totally crap? To get that out of the way: At the bare minimum, the Secret Service are guilty of what certain jurisdictions call culpable negligence. Having been informed of both foreign and domestic threats against Donald Trump, they created ...

A Clubman's Notes
Firing into a Continent
Welcome to the latest in our series of audio adventures, Tales for Our Time, and Part Three of my serialisation of Heart of Darkness by Joseph Conrad. We're always happy to hear from Mark Steyn Club members, and Thomas Carey, a First Day Founding Member, has been having a good time of late: What a great week to be a Mark Steyn Club member! Really enjoyed the Q&A this week, and Heart of Darkness for the new Tales of Our Time, and your comments on the anniversary of Butler. Great content, much to ponder from Epstein, to the Belgian Congo, to Secret Service buffoonery. Thank you Mark. My pleasure, Thomas. In tonight's episode, our protagonist sails for the Dark Continent and comes across the 1890s version of shock-and-awe: Once, I remember, ...
A Clubman's Notes
A Vast Amount of Red
Welcome to Part Two of Heart of Darkness, our summer audio adventure in Tales for Our Time. I thank you for all your kind words about this choice for our seventy-second yarn. John Wilson, a First Week Founding Member of The Mark Steyn Club, particularly appreciated the exquisite timing: Oh, no way! I just listened to this book 3 days ago on Audible. Well, I'm definitely going to listen to Mark's version. In tonight's episode of Joseph Conrad's tale, our protagonist is in mainland Europe to prepare for his visit to Africa - because, in those days, one continent owned another continent, and the map was colour-coded to reflect their respective sovereigns: I gave my name, and looked about. Deal table in the middle, plain chairs all round the ...
