Have to wonder how Weiss managed to keep a straight face.

You often (& rightfully) complain about the sorry state of modern western culture, including the arts. Are you aware of the fabulous new National World War I Memorial sculpture in Washington D.C. by Sabin Howard?
In the good old days, he would have made a great interview on your show, as I have seen him elsewhere on the internet. Some reason for hope in the future.
God bless.

A lefty friend of mine who hated Boris Johnson and then, irrationally, did everything he told her to do, was convinced (on little evidence) that she would die if she ever caught Covid. Even after she survived her first bout of it, using my high dose Vit C powder, she went to having 'the juice'. This week, she is ill again, after four sets of jabs (probably a flu jab, too). Her last bout, of four bouts of Covid so far, was last autumn. She says she has never "felt right since". She reports that now she has continual infections and fatigue, giving her added stress. She is barely able to work fulltime and is seeing her doctor for a complete check-up, which will, of course, find nothing wrong (immunological weakness is invisible to modern medicine). "Effective" is not a word that immediately springs to mind. She is still convinced that what "did for her" was Covid, itself.
On child abuse, Mrs May, as Home Secretary, put in place the original (over broad) inquiry into child abuse, (The Independent Inquiry into Child Sexual Abuse) reporting, in an interview in the Telegraph, that child abuse is rampant 'out there' (it did not cover domestic child abuse). This inquiry, after several miserable, failed attempts, resulted in the recommendations of Professor Alexis Jay presented to the Government which have barely been actioned, yet. So the largely useless Tories did something on wider child abuse but nothing specifically on bringing to justice those involved in covering up the organised gang rape. This is an entirely different order of child abuse, in my view. Another specific inquiry must fully involve the victims and not just use them in one-off meetings for the purposes of making political sound bites. Sadly, it is all "too little, too late" to save the Tories..

Mark,
The administration of Fidel Castro's bastard, mammy singing offspring has announced they will spend more on their defense by buying American made submarines. This includes replacing the disastrous Victoria class, which was originally the British Upholder class. The Upholders suffered from a host of design and build failures which included leaking torpedo tubes and had deteriorated since being taken out of British service after the fall of the Soviet Union.
Since American shipyards can't maintain and build US Navy vessels that make up the current force (33% or more of the US nuclear attack submarines are out of service awaiting repairs) why is Canada even pretending they will buy ships from US shipbuilders? Ain't gonna happen!

What do you make of these globalist elite types in power condemning other famous high-profile foreign individuals from budding in to voice pushback on the dismal way they manage their nation's affairs?
Isn't it the reason the globalists get out of bed each day to do their daily exhortations to everyone else on how to live their lives while they think of ten ways to Sunday to screw us blind?
If they can't take the toxic environment they created maybe they should pack their bags and move to the jungles of Brazil and make merry with the natives. They actually might learn something about what happens when they take advantage of one of the tribesmen. Of course, they wouldn't come back to teach it to the rest of their colleagues. Rich, I think.

Hi Mark!
On Friday, December 27, Janet Yellen officially warned Congress that the Treasury would default if the debt limit was not raised by January 15, which is today. I haven't heard that either Treasury or Congress has done anything at all about this issue. Was it just Bravo Sierra? If so, then it would be of a piece with her three weeks of praise for the Biden economic record. Thoughts?

Hi Mark
Interested in your thoughts on Elon Musk.
On the positive side of the ledger:
- bought Twitter and saved free speech, for the time being at least
- helped Trump get elected
- turned the public spotlight onto the Pakistani British child rape gangs and all of the enablers in UK government
- publicly defending Tommy Robinson and forcing Farage to pay a price for his rejection of Tommy
On the negative side of the ledger
- owned a company that thinks it is a good idea to experiment with microchips in the brains on monkeys (and soon enough humans)
Best wishes

Mark,
One victim is a tragedy, a million victims is a statistic. This unfortunate thought made me start thinking of the statistics involved in the 'Shame of Britain' and just how many people have to be turning away from the basic societal duty of protecting the girls.
I like to point out that the only poverty I see in America is a poverty of Spirit, and since I can't seem to express what I mean by spirit, I usually say a poverty of Hope. There are so many people with no hope for a better tomorrow let alone a blessed afterlife and no spirit of revolt, revolution, or resistance. Just the meek, go along to get along and maybe I won't be noticed.
President Trump has ignited a renewed hope in those who still have Spirit. I would like to hear your thoughts, on this aspect of western society because I know that whether you agree or not, you can certainly express it much better than I can.
With prayers for your health,

Hello, Mark,
I was intrigued that this week, despite the vigorous attempts of British Officialdom in general, and the labor government in particular, to bury national inquiry into the grooming gangs scandal, several labor M.P.'s, including the one representing rotherham, have now broken with their leadership and backed such an inquiry.
What do you think brought about such boldness (if I can call it that), and is it likely to be repeated?

Hi Mark,
Are you familiar with Sarah Cain? She is a contributor to CRISIS magazine. She is also known as "The Crusader Gal" and is a political and cultural commentator who makes videos about the decline of the West, and she writes Homefront Crusade.
Her recent contribution to CRISIS magazine published on January 13th proposes the Muslim rape gangs in the United Kingdom for the past two decades are acts of a religious war against a people whom the perpetrators consider to be conquered.
She points out these young girls were targeted specifically because they were white and not Muslim, and the rapists were not targeting members of their own community.

Somebody please explain a major change in the temper of a culture. Decades ago we were at war (hot and cold) with totalitarianisms such as Communists and Nazis. Back then we had no hesitation to criticize, mock or heckle them at will.
The present iteration of Western Civ can be said to be in a state of de facto combat with the fanatical militant fragment of Islam, and now we fear to offend and criticize them, to the point of being craven about it. What has changed in the interim, the nature of our enemy, or ours?

Greetings Mark. It seems that in the frozen 51st state of the USA, our governor is taking liberties with our Westminster Parliamentary system. First, he prorogates Parliament not for the good of the country as intended but for his own benefit.Then it appears the Liberals are fast tracking UN and WEF elitist ( and holder of three passports ) Mark Carney directly into the PM's position without being a member of Parliament. Looks like the machinations of a third world post nation state. Thanks for your comments and wishing you good health and fortune in the new year.

Great job exposing all of this Mark and staying with it. It's not easy to be the lone voice crying out in the media wilderness. If anyone deserves a Knighthood, it's you.

I have a story about the COVID booster shot:
I flew back from visiting folks in Ottawa in 22 and, as directed, went to some rented office space in Victoria to get the booster. I'd been a good joe up till then, getting the shots, not thinking much about it.
Within hours, walking home, I knew something was wrong, terribly wrong. For days I stumbled around my apartment, dazed, not clear what the problem was. Then I decided to pull myself together and go out to the plaza! I collapsed on the way home and was taken to the ER.
As they were putting me on the stretcher, I overheard one paramedic whisper to the other, "myocarditis."
Unlike Way Cool people, I had earnestly studied Latin and I knew what that meant (inflammation due to a weakened heart). I also realized that they did not realize that I knew what it meant. I vowed I'd look it up when I got back from the hospital. I wondered why they were so sure.
The doctor at the hospital would not interact with me about what happened; he suggested I needed a cane or a walker. That simply wasn't true, generally, and I knew it. By the time I saw him, it was very late at night and I was exhausted. So I simply wandered away from the hospital. I found a taxi and went home. I later learned that provincial legislation forbid him to discuss the matter honestly with me.
You know what the Irish say: "If anyone can help me, it's me brother in the army"? I have a brother in the army, so to speak. When I finally felt I could talk to him about it, he just said "You had a massive immune reaction to the COVID booster shot."
Wish someone had said so earlier and dealt with it as such.
Among local people, I got zero sympathy! Everyone was anxious to protect the authorities from any suggestion of mishandling these matters. I was, they said, one of tiny, tiny, tiny minority who were maybe merely imagining things. It wasn't until the Convoy later that year that I began to have some hope...
