Looks like Trump is 1000 times more organized than last time.
They are making announcements at an incredible rate of knots and really exerting influence already.
And it looks like he has learned many lessons - some great people on board.
The obvious question is: do you think he can pull it off ... hit rewind when the train is plunging towards the ground having by careered over the cliff, rejuvenate America and restore it back to sanity and world leadership?

Mark,
I hope you are well.
Fair to say Trump has come out of the gates flying and he means business.
The idea of a Department of Government Efficiency headed by Elon Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy is a promise made and a promise kept, rare in modern politics.
By limiting their roles to Independence Day 2026, this has to be once in a lifetime opportunity to drain the swamp and I for one am desperate to see it in action. Of course as a Brit under the Starmtroopers, it will never catch on.
What say you?
Keep well Mark.

Dear Mark--
I saw the other day that the owner of a Latino radio station in Pennsylvania claimed that Latino men didn't vote for the Vice President because they come from a culture of male chauvinism.
I would not know whether the cultural claim is true. But if it's true, should the Left have pondered that side effect before importing 8 million more people who might think the same way? This reminds me of the activists who were shocked to find that the newest residents of Hamtramck, Michigan don't care much for rainbow flags.
Keep up the good work.

In the UK, or, at least, in England, gas boilers are to be banned in new homes from 2027. Britain's Labour government is committed to the building of 300,000 houses a year. Since the government doesn't actually build houses and would probably construct them at Dunwich, if it did, that number of houses is conjured from thin air. People who make heat pumps, the unreliable, expensive machinery which will supposedly replace boilers, admit that they couldn't produce the requisite number, anyway.
Are our politicians now telling us that, whatever is claimed to be going "wrong" is our fault, so we must suffer justice for our sins: we've used central heating, so we must sit in the cold and the dark? Is anything which people like or desire (decent schooling, well-maintained roads, access to competent health care) to be denied on political grounds?

One thing you've got to say about the Trump campaign- it sure was a laugh fest! I have never watched so many hysterically funny videos or laughed out loud at all the memes that were put up on an hourly basis by Our President Trump's supporters.
Who can ever forget, for example, one of Team Trump's greatest hits, that calypso version of "They're Eating the Cats" ? And whose idea was it to make the former Gay Anthem, YMCA, as the closing theme song for the entire campaign? A stroke of genius that was.
Anyway, now that he's back in office, literally today with FJB, I wonder what sage advice and words of wisdom you have for the 47th President DJT.

Dear Mark:
The MSM is all aflutter that Donald Trump is selecting people loyal to him for positions in his administration. I don't recall them having the same indigestion when both Biden and Obama did the same. He most certainly seems to have learned his lesson since his first go round when he depended on establishment hacks to enact his agenda.
Marco Rubio, his choice for Secretary of State, was last seen confronting a reporter asking if he would demand a cease fire in Gaza. He answered with a definitive no, and when asked if he's okay with thousands of Palestinian children having been killed, he placed the blame for that entirely on Hamas.
Tom Homan, his selection as Border Czar (apparently Kamala Harris was not considered to reprise her role), is making no bones that he will do everything in his power to remove illegal aliens with or without the assistance of sanctuary state governors. When asked if he was okay with breaking up families, he said that would be up to the parents. They can leave with or without their children.
It's been a very long time since I have heard Republicans be so forceful in their statements and showing no fear of how those statements will be portrayed by the legacy media. Donald Trump has indeed implanted a backbone into the party, and we'll soon see if the remaining establishment types join the parade or get shown the door. I would like to hear your thoughts on the matter.
Sincerely,

2) Defense: An easy mark for The Swamp will be Pete Hegseth, the Fox & Friends talking head. Perfectly fine gent, with no experience running anything like DOD. The Pentagon apparatchiks will have him for lunch.
3) "Dept of Govt Efficiency": Never thought I'd agree with Pocahontas: "Two people to do one job—yeah that's real efficient." Also: two monumental egos vying to impress the boss. Also: another new government agency to police the other 428. Why couldn't they take over the OMB?

Hi Mark,
Wishing you all the best for when the wanker cops come round knocking on your door. What do you make of Kemi Badenoch, the new Tory leader across the pond. When I first heard her name, I thought she was a holdover from the old Bullwinkle cartoons. When I learned she lived in Nigeria as a lass I immediately flashed back to the Montreal School girl of fleeting fame. I also found it ironic that the Democrats had to import its candidates from Kenya and Canada, and the Tories import theirs from India and Nigeria. At least their both part of the Commonwealth. Since then, she has been hitting all the right Trumpian notes: stopping illegal immigration, slashing government bloat and over regulation and of course stripping away Non-Crime Hate Incidents and all of that ilk.
The question is, with the Tories so far out in the weeds, does she have a chance of getting to Downing Street? And if she can pull off the miracle, is their any chance she can govern as a true conservative?

Dear Mark,
Your comments about the police visiting Allison Pearson to "discuss" a year old Tweet highlights a growing concern I have about the enlargement of laws and regulation at the expense of the "realm of manners".
Social conservatives have long tried to legislate morality and have found there is no longer enough societal agreement to get elected on these issues. Trump's 2024 support reflects very diverse groups which would never have voted Republican in the past when the platform was largely lower taxes/ ban abortion.
Regardless of anyone's social viewpoint, do you think it would be better to advocate for the maximum freedom of speech possible and leave police and the courts out of it? This might let people conduct their lives as they see fit with others allowed to advise, comment, or criticize as they see fit. Regulation should be limited to reigning in the monopoly power of social media to censor and clearly differentiating between adults and minors with parents and guardians responsible for their own children.
Free speech is just one more area where you've been ahead of the curve along with demography and the consequences of open borders.
Warm Regards,
Bill

In your Q&A on 13th March, you were good enough to deal with my speculation that, as the only way to get rid of the pesky Donald Trump, all other attempts having failed, he would be suicided or accidented, à la Epstein/Putin.
Well, he very nearly was, TWICE!, but ended up just with a bloody hole in his ear.
And the presidency!
.... Imagine what would have followed [if Kamala had been assassinated]
+ Never-ending world wide coverage and universal outrage
+ She is a martyr to America and to democracy
+ She was murdered because she is black/brown and a woman
+ She gets a magnificent state funeral
+ And a long period of mourning where - out of respect, of course - no campaigning will, conveniently, be allowed
+ It was all engineered as revenge by Donald Trump (naturally!)
+ So Trump is vilified for the crime across all media, Hollywood, Silicon Valley, billionaires etc etc
+ Enter the Democrats' and America's saviour: Gavin Newsom or some such slick handsome operator
+ Trump's poll numbers crash, out of disgust for what he is accused of
+ He is arrested for Kamala's assassination, banged up in prison and probably slaughtered there
+ Gavin Newsome wins by a landslide
+ America has eight more years of glorious unfettered Marxism and mass immigration.
Is that not exactly what would have happened?

Regarding the nemesis of globalist Archbishop Welby, he stayed silent and inactive for 11 years about a child abuser, John Smyth, who ran rings around unsuspecting Christians because he was manipulative, handsome, a top lawyer, posh and able to convert boys as well as viciously beat them until they bled (profusely) in his soundproof shed. Almost unbelievably, Smyth was also a judge, appointed by the late Queen as 'Recorder' of Winchester, sending people to prison, while being a criminal himself. As a direct result of the Archbishop's lack of action/interest/care/sense of responsibility even more boys were abused and Smyth's victims in the UK continued in a state of complete abandonment (or died in the meantime).
Question: Do you have any insight into how someone apparently lacking Christian love and concern, with just a BA in Ministry and virtually no hands-on parish experience, rose so fast to the Bishopric of Durham within ten years of ordination and was made Archbishop of Canterbury a year later? Also, is the King's status subliminally diminished since it was discredited Welby who placed the Crown on the head of Charles III?
