  • Earth Day, Aliens, and Housing - w/ Donna Jackson
    Apr 23 2026

    On Today’s Episode –

    Mark and Donna start off talking about President Trump’s latest victories, and the differences between The President and the Democrats. It becomes glaringly clear that The Left makes policy for policy’s sake, and how Trump makes things happen.

    We jump into Earth Day – 1970 founded, celebrated in 90 countries around the world – lets look at some predictions. Mass starvation by 1980 and overpopulation. World headed for new Ice Age. Entire nations will be under water by rising tides. I mean come on, where is the accountability for the quacks making these predictions.

    Donna then gets into HUD, and homes and how President Trump has been helping new home buyers.
