79°Tales of the Mark Side: The Conservative Voice in Manatee County
mark.young@manateeherald.com Load up your skis, fuel up the snowmobile, brush off the spider webs on your snow shovels and head due south to hell because it has frozen over. The lies flowing out of this White House have gotten so bad that even CNN had to finally call it out for what it is. And…
mark.young@manateeherald.com Footage of the 9-11 attacks never fails to bring back the exact emotions I felt on that day 22 years ago. It was our generation’s Pearl Harbor – a day that only lived in infamy for a couple of generations as America moved on from the historical consequences of Dec. 7, 1941. How many…
mark.young@manateeherald.com (Editor’s note: In the second half of our interview with Kamala Harris we discuss the southern border, foreign policy and the alleged MAGA threat.) ME: Madam VP, before we get into the heart of our remaining topics, gender identity seems to be a hot topic in America. Everytime the subject comes up, I’m reminded…
mark.young@manateeherald.com It’s always amazing to reach a milestone and that is definitely what our 200th visit is all about! According to Larry Elder anyway.

I laughed the next day when they released their numbers because Tucker Carlson’s X (formerly Twitter) interview with President Trump began with 75 million views and at last check was up to…
mark.young@manateeherald.com Unfortunately our scheduled visit this week isn’t timed well with the Republican debate airing on the day I write this, so you can bet I’ll have a lot to say in our next visit on Monday. Spoiler alert: I’ll remind Chris Christie that given his scandals as NJ governor that he does not hold…
mark.young@manateeherald.com I’m not one to be the pretentious guy who likes to say, “I told you so,” but umm … I told you so. If you remember when the speculation had only just begun on who may or may not get into the GOP presidential primary season, I predicted a Ron DeSantis run would prove…
mark.young@manateeherald.com Have you ever been in an argument with someone and present the facts to them, ask them for their facts and all they can do in their frustration is say something along the lines of, “I’ll get back to you on that.” That’s essentially what democrats did this week when they released a brief…
