Hello Laura,
Give the relative populations, and Justin Castro's open border, do you think that it is inevitable that Canada will become a colony of Asia/South Asia?
If so, will the founding stock population, aka "Canadians", remain or leave Canada?
Best,
Peter

Hi Laura,
Looking forward to the guest host to the guest host once again! I used to be a proponent of a two-state solution – not because I agree with the anti-Israel rhetoric from the Palestinian activists, but rather because it seemed like the only viable path to peace. Over the last year, this seems completely and utterly impossible. But the question then is, what next? It's easy for Israel to justify razing Gaza to the ground, but the West Bank is a different animal – they'll still be neighbours. What do you see happening?

Hail Laura, queen of the Q&A. Long may she reign. What are your thoughts on this recent trend of politicians signing bombs and artillery shells? Zelensky was recently in Pennsylvania signing a shell and endorsing Kamala Harris for president, but just a few months ago Nikki Haley was doing the same thing while urging the Israelis to "finish them" (whatever finish means).
Is there anyone among the so called adults in the room that don't advocate a never ending escalation? Shouldn't war be the absolute last option when all others have been exhausted?

Laura,
For a history project I'm working on, I have taken a deep dive into books and articles about the Soviet penetration of the Manhattan Project. It was a little more than 75 years ago, on August 29, 1949, that the USSR put its stolen A-bomb secrets to world-shaking use by a successful detonation of a plutonium bomb near the Kazakhstan. One of my favorite discoveries, while reading about all the espionage, were some love letters. A US Army Sergeant at Los Alamos, New Mexico, before passing to the Russians his helpful drawing of the A bomb prototype, wrote several love letters to his wife. One such letter had this heartfelt line: "I love you with all the love of [Karl] Marx and the humanity of [Vladimir] Lenin." This leads to my question—the way we're going, do you think the 21st century will be dominated more by the "love" of Karl Mark or the "humanity" of Vladimir Lenin? Or will it be something else entirely?

Dear Laura,
Unfortunately I agree with Trump that if he loses, it will be, to some extent because of the Jews. We Jews live clustered in counties in swing states where a difference of 15,000-45,000 votes can decide the election.
My question is what we do the day after. How do we love each other when our own brethren seem more invested in not electing Republicans and unseating Bibi than in defending each other?
My second question is who is running the U.S. right now? The video of Michelle Obama peddling diet sodas at Costco gives me the impression her husband is not the behind-the-scenes ruler of the free world.

Greetings Laura! What do you think the odds of Canada's Conservative party achieving a vote of non confidence against the Liberals before the end of this year? Thank you for keeping Mark's seat warm today!

Hi Laura,
Thanks for hosting the Q&A this week.
My question is this. The first two Trump assassination attempts had US deep state written all over them, with the second one even more brazenly with inside help than the first, in my opinion. I'm pessimistic that Trump will survive the next round of US deep state assassination attempts, much less beat the Dem margin of steal and win the election. But assuming he does win the election, what do you make of his chances of surviving his first year in office?

Greetings from sunny Sacramento California, a city so chock-a-block with rabid Repubican-haters, we genuinely fear to post our Trump/Vance yard signs. Be that as it may, do you have a theory as to why the Feds refused to release the contents of the diaries of the shooter of school children and teachers in Tennessee, but are delighted to disclose the bounty letter of the second would-be Trump assassin? If there is a consistent logic in these decisions, I am unable to discern it. I'll take your answer on-air...

Hi Mark -
Did you hear the news? The SENATE released a scathing report about the assassination attempt on Trump in Butler, PA. I hear it is so well-written, they are expecting it to have the impact of THE DURHAM REPORT!
Here's my question: if they actually allow Trump to win, will they allow him to govern?

OK, you want fluffy, you've got fluffy. What do you think of the "so bad it's good" movie genre? You know, Ed Wood et al. Why is it that something officially deemed a flop becomes something so endearing and cool to some? Is this a modern version of the sadistic laugh at the Village Idiot?
