Mark, I went to the Army-Navy game last Saturday and it honestly was among the saddest events I have ever attended. It felt like a celebration of a nation that had been defeated and destroyed but everyone was just pretending it wasn't. The event was in NY/NJ to mark 20 years since 9/11 and seeing the people who lost that war like that human blobfish Milley being paraded around made me sick. Also interesting to not that the alleged "Comander In Chief" was not in attendance.

The NIH's Francis Collins should be locked up for his sake and ours. If he were on the street singing this song, I would have called the police to pick him up for vagrancy and disturbing the peace.
This is a good example of how lightly the NIH has taken its part in destroying what's left of the fragile US economy. Collins is tone deaf on this score. And if he wrote that dreadful song while at the office, he needs to reimburse the Treasury for time wasted.
Our bloated government will have us all singing for our supper soon enough. I may have to start raising chickens to make sure I'll at least be able to get eggs once everything totally goes to hell.

Hi Mark,
Happy Holidays to you and yours! So, with the USA's leaders flushing the nation down the toilet, is there any other nation out there that you see might step up to protect individual liberties and freedoms?
By the way, I am half-expecting the pathetic Liz Cheney to call you before the Jan. 6th sham commission to claim you encouraged the riot since you called the Capitol "a citadel of crap" on Fox News that day. To us club members that line remains an apt description of the legislative branch!

I chortle to myself each time I hear you excoriate the "constitution-waving pom-pom girls." Our constitution should indeed be cherished, but any successful political system necessitates a fundamental allegiance to truth. The moral relativists who infest our media, our government, our corporations, our schools, and even our religious institutions no longer place value - or emphasis - on finding or adhering to truth. There is no greater evidence of this than the despicable, morally-bankrupt, damnably-evil media actively and gladly participating in a daily - nay, hourly - attempt to overthrow a duly-elected president (Trump) through deceit, lies, exaggerations, and omissions. A media, to a large extent, which is seemingly, to a great extent, controlled by U.S. Intelligence Services....
They will continue as they have suffered no consequences for their treachery. How can we survive as such? I doubt we can.

The clip featuring Mark's very own Senator Shaheen (D-NH) had me rolling in the aisles when the intrepid Admiral rolled out every Woke military jargon cliché in the DOD politically correct manual in response to her inquiry about Gender Advisors. My favorite part was when the Admiral said that their highest priority is a safe and secure work environment for the soldiers, sailors, airmen, marines, Coast Guardsmen (he left out the Space Force.) I wonder how he will manage that when things go kinetic.

Dear Mark:
It seems to me that the cause of many of our ills is the US public school education system. It has been used as an indoctrination center of the left for many decades now.
The manner in which the public schools bungled the pandemic (school closures, virtual learning, mandatory masks, and now, mandatory vaccines) was an opportune time for Republicans to begin the process of tearing down the current system and going full bore toward school choice. Instead, they berated the teachers and administrators for not reopening schools sooner.
Why is it that Republicans are so risk averse? I have come to the belief that they have no intention at all of changing the system. Without significant changes in our education system, we will continue down the road to perdition. Is there any hope?

Mark: Have you seen Steven Spielberg's new "West Side Story" film? The Atlantic Magazine loves it, which immediately made me suspicious. It apparently has tons of Spanish dialogue (for the Sharks) and cries for Puerto Rico nationalism with no subtitles to soften the blow, a first in major films. Not even the Metropolitan Opera would insult their audience that overtly -- and that audience generally knows the libretto forward and backward. Is this new "Wokeness" emasculating Sondheim & Bernstein's iconic score? Should I plunk down $10 or not?

If western civilization is past the point of no return, how does Christendom and Christianity fit into this picture? I think we all have seen how western Europe has changed. Unfortunately, you called it correctly 20 years ago. Will the same fate happen to America, with the churches going empty or being converted to mosques? Or will there be a different path in America due to the ever growing Hispanic population?

And guess which country has not massively printed money or lowered its interest to 0? China. Their financial foundations are sound.

From "The Great Tech Rivalry" (linked by way of "back in the real world") article:
"(Regarding Artificial Intelligence (AI))...the United States enjoys two advantages in human capital that Beijing cannot replicate. First, half of the world's AI superstars work
for U.S. companies. Second, America can recruit from all the world's 7.9 billion people, while inherent insularity restricts China to its own population."
How much does this reality have to do with contemporary demographic-shifting policies being practiced in the West? Are these "AI superstars" (meaning prominent AI researchers, to be clear) the driving force behind such policies? Is the pursuit of such policies - and also things like "diversity, inclusion, equity offices" to mitigate tensions - thusly necessary in order to maintain any sort of power structure that can rival China? Are we looking at a Everybody vs. China situation here? And is it that the USA of old must die so that the "Everybody" can move in and position themselves to compete against China in the 21st century?
And why don't Western demographic conservatives employ such comforting language like "inherent insularity" when describing their views/goals? Do the Chinese believe in Chinese Supremacy?

Perhaps the good Admiral did not know the role of a GENAD and Women Peace and Security - and perhaps neither the questioner. This was a freebie softball question, and he could have shone without being woke.
GENADs and WPS have been incorporated into the NATO Crisis Response and war fighting planning for yonks - for the usual right and wrong reasons. Probably in US Joint Ops planning too. He should have spoken to the large proportion of GENADs that have little to do with HR Policies, but are focused on operational success, and started with his 'get everyone around the table' thesis.
Example: "Let's bomb their wells, that will show them."

But it's bigger, and feels supernatural. Recent events, all of which are being suppressed by the state media, are being driven by a cast of characters now headed by a Klaus Schwab. They were once a clandestine group, going back to the League of Nations. They are very open about their intentions now and this is just the next step in global domination by a tyranny that feels satanically complete, Because it's a world-wide goal, it couldn't have been done without today's AI and internet technology, so the timing is right. America was their western lynchpin, and had to go. The void can now be filled by the OWO.
Douglas Murray (I very much enjoyed this weeks interview) believes it better to live in a cultural Christian world. But if you take the Christian out of the culture, then it isn't Christian anymore. It becomes malleable and subject to imperfect human interpretation. What, indeed, does it stand for, if not the Bible? Exactly like the US Constitution! It's such a shredded document now that it stands for nothing. The once most powerful office in the world is occupied by a holographic image.
The Pope wants to baptize an alien, he's declared the Christian God to be one with Allah, and Iran announces it has a cruise missile that can travel 1200 miles. China is building a military base in the Pacific,and bought choice real estate in Texas near an airport and a military base.
America has left the world stage, and the Davos lunatics are meeting in January. Buckle up.

Not that there's much we could do at the best of times, but these aren't the best of times. What do you think a more sensible US government might do? Because this one won't do squat.

Dear Mark,
As the only person living in Ukraine, I think I am perfectly suited to comment on current events as they relate to this country. Ukrainians have all the ingredients needed to become a major European power: natural resources, industry, agriculture, and a military industrial complex inherited from the Soviet Union. If they were willing, they could easily become a major exporter of agricultural products and finished goods.
However, they have made a dog's breakfast out of governing themselves the past 30 years, becoming known as one of the most corrupt countries in Europe. Their army is equally corrupt, poorly trained, and ill disciplined, as evidenced by the fact their soldiers neither act nor look like soldiers. If it comes to war, the Russians, who have a real army, will flatten the Ukrainians.
Ukrainians refuse to accept responsibility for the state of their nation; instead, they blame Russia. Nay worse still is that rather than build an army capable of resisting the Russians, they have decided to pass the buck onto NATO and America.
Independent countries that refuse to be independent and would rather whore themselves to international bodies (and I include Ireland in that category) deserve to be consumed by their neighbors. America shouldn't have to ride in and save them from their collective stupidity.
Kind Regards,
