The Mark Belling Podcast

<p>Right-minded, free-wheeling conservative commentary from Mark Belling, focused on societal trends, pop culture, current events, politics, and anything else Mark feels like talking about! After 35 years as one of the most successful radio talk show hosts. </p>

Mark Belling Podcast #99:  The case against Judge Hannah Dugan strengthens as a fellow judge who witnessed Dugan obstructing ICE agents testifies "judges should not be helping defendants evade arrest."  There are growing indications local officials have botched the Brown University murder case as there's still no arrest.  And, Mark offers his take on White House Chief of Staff's Susie Wiles' candid comments on the inside of the Trump presidency.

President Trump targets Venezuela and fentanyl as he looks out for regular Americans.  In the meantime, Trump's chief of staff evidently regrets spilling her guts to Vanity Fair.   A fellow judge testifies she was shocked Hannah Dugan aided the attempted escape of a defendant who was the subject of an ICE warrant.  And, as the FBI foils a planned Christmas attack in Los Angeles it is becoming more apparent Christian and Jews are now being targeted for killing all over the world.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Mark Belling Podcast #98: Some bright spots after a bad weekend: much of the world seems to be turning right and rejecting Marxism and open borders, Gavin Newsom is being nuked by,, of all people, Nikki Minaj and some American conservatives are demanding Republicans start getting tougher and match the Democrats on gerrymandering and other fronts. And, Mark shares a story on a hit and run driver who got caught because she, well, you'll have to listen to find out.

Local media wrongly name a local man who had nothing to do with the Brown University slayings.    Rapper Nikki Minaj continues her rightward turn by going after Gavin Newsom for saying he wants MORE trans kids.  And, some thoughts on the nightmarish Micah Parsons injury and why ACL tears are becoming so common among elite athletesSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Mark Belling Podcast #97: What happens when all the judges are Democrats? In Washington County you can brazenly shoplift and repeatedly drive without a license and in Dane County a judge can have a partisan hack write his opinions for him to persecute a Republican. The marijuana/paranoia link strikes again as a Milwaukee pharmacy student is killed by a stoned friend. Is a cheap generic drug a key to stopping cancer in its tracks? Maybe, but the drug companies and FDA won't tell you about it. Maybe RFK and MAHA will. All that and more on the weekend "Big One."

It's not surprising justice is a joke in Dane County, but it's a disgrace that conservative Washington County is pathetically soft on crime because all four of its elected judges are Evers appointees.  Mark dives into it.  Also: how Michigan's football coach ruined his career and landed in jail because he couldn't keep his pants zipped.   Fascinating information on another "dewormer" drug and its potential: can it stop cancer?   And, our weekly football preview plus a look at the one moderate Democrat who is joining their huge primary field for Governor.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Mark Belling Podcast #96: A special podcast focusing on big topics, starting with the lost males of Generation Z and how liberal messaging has essentially neutered them. Also, as the big speech platforms go global, US free speech may be restricted by foreign governments. And, the inclusion of the Hepatitis B vaccine on the childhood immunization schedule is a case study in how the CDC did the bidding of the drug companies at the expense of our kids.

Mark comments on Victor Davis Hanson's analysis of the desperate times for Gen Z males and how they have been victimized by the mainstreaming of leftist crackpotism.   A prophetic message from the past about the potential damage of long-term welfare reliance (guess who turned out to be correct?) and a look at how European restrictions on social media platforms are threatening free speech in America (another problem created by globalism).See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Mark Belling Podcast #95:  If somebody is scamming, they're doing it with Democrat cover.  Example: Evers vetoes the bill cracking down on fake service animals.  Also, Obama bragged about all of his terror strikes; why are Trump's drug smuggler strikes any different?   And the former head of the CDC wants mRNA vaccines pulled from the market.

From Somalis in Minnesota, to companies doling out fake service animal certificates, Democrats are enabling them.  Trump's advisors urge him to start talking about affordability, an issue in which the Democrats deserve all the blame.  And Tom Homan says 60,000 smuggled children have been rescued from human traffickers because of the immigration crackdown.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Mark Belling Podcast #94: Why do experts always get things wrong (Covid, the trolley, no cash bail, etc.)?   Some theories will be explored on today's podcast.  Also, why is mass Muslim immigration such a disaster in America?   Yet another local soccer coach is nailed on sex pervert charges and our weekly football preview including a look at the huge Packers-Bears game.

Mark dives into the folly of listening to "experts" and why they seem to always get the big stuff wrong.  The Somali/Minnesota scandal follow-up: one take on why mass immigration of Muslims keeps failing. And, what's the deal on all of these weirdos who become police impersonators?  See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Mark Belling Podcast #93: The scandal in plain sight: Somalis in Minnesota steal $1 billion in taxpayer money in full view of the media and full knowledge of pathetic Gov. Tim Walz. Also: the gall of the Democrats hammering on the "affordability" crisis they created. And, Mark's take on the Lightning & Thunder movie Song Sung Blue: is it Oscar-worthy?

Minnesota's bozo Governor refused to stop the Somali aid scandal because the crooks were Somali.  Trump rightly outs Obamacare as a windfall for insurers that provides crappy coverage for the poor.  Mandela Barnes defies fellow Wisconsin Democrats and runs for Governor and a firsthand report from the red carpet (so to speak) for Song Sung Blue.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Mark Belling Podcast #92: America is awash in radicalized murderers whose violence is fueled by Democrat rhetoric. A major university says most of its incoming freshmen have grade school level math proficiency. And, Evers' DOC tells nobody about Morgan Geyser's mistake. The "Governor's" response: nothing.

It's hard to say what's worse: whether we are letting unvetted radical Muslims into our country or whether we are allowing leftist hate to radicalize them once they get to the US.  The apathetic DOC slugs didn't bother to tell Morgan Geyser's attacker that the woman who almost killed her had escaped.    And, it's Bears Week in Green Bay in a year in which both teams are contenders.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Mark Belling Podcast #91: Why are so many people gravitating to socialism/Marxism/communism? Is it because so many don't own anything anymore? Also, indications are the Milwaukee Lightning & Thunder movie, Song Sung Blue, may be very good. And, if you want to get all A's in college, just go to Harvard.

Mark's weekend podcast focuses on how George W. Bush's "ownership society" never materialized and how young people stuck in the nightmare of long-term renting are gravitating toward socialism.   Contributing factor: all of the millennials who aren't as smart as they think they are: is it because Harvard gave all of them A's?  And, as the US debut of "Song Sung Blue" approaches in Milwaukee, Mark discusses Lightning & Thunder  and their unique Milwaukee story.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Mark Belling Podcast #90: Mental Health Quackery: Why is Morgan Geyser still so messed up? Mark analyzes how terrible choices and delusions are ratified by therapists rather than rebuked. It's a societal trend that explains "gender affirming care" and all of the other dysfunction that isn't recognized for what it is. Also, are all the ADHD pills leading to other drug abuse? And, our weekly football preview just in time for the Packers and Thanksgiving

Mark takes a deep dive into the failings of psychiatry from the Morgan Geyser case to the drug abuse epidemic that may have its roots in ADHD drugs.   President Trump tries to navigate immigration policy by deporting illegals but welcoming needed skilled workers with H-1B visas.   The Democrats urge troops to defy orders and our weekly football preview (it's early this week because of Thanksgiving)See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Mark Belling Podcast #89: A local psychologist and her boyfriend churn out mental health diagnoses at $50 a pop in order to sell "emotional support animal" permissions.  In another scam, a Democrat congresswoman is accused of stealing $5 million from FEMA.   And the Morgan Geyser case raises serious questions about the quality of care she has been getting from state mental health officials.

Mark focuses on some bad looks in the mental health business.   Morgan Geyser cuts off her monitoring bracelet only months after state officials say she's safe to be released.  A local psychologist cranks out emotional disability diagnoses for $50 after patients submit online questionnaires.  And, Marxism strikes again as Chicago's Christmas tree lighting turns into a violent riotSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Mark Belling Podcast #88: The whole Epstein story is one of hypocrisy including the refusal of the media to focus on the obvious biggest name involved: Bill Clinton. More hypocrisy on today's podcast from the Texas redistricting ruling to Hollywood hating on Cheryl Hines (she's firing back). And, one of the two big Wis leftist unions dives into the Dem Gov race by endorsing Sara Rodriguez.

The weekend podcast features our weekly football preview.  But first, a dive into the deep hypocrisy that overwhelms everything else in the Jeffrey Epstein case.   With crime out of control, a California city cracks down on....pickleball.   And, a look at the long criminal history of the Chicago man who lit a woman on fire on a subway platform.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Mark Belling Podcast #87: Not so fast! The state legislature's push to give away online sports gambling for nothing to the tribes hits a much-needed speed bump. Also, how do you trust the Democrats who've made think so expensive to bring us affordability? And the public defenders throw a hissy fit over the crackdown on reckless driving

Mark dives into the prostituting by state lawmakers to special interests like the tribes, using the online sports betting issue as an example.  Ron DeSantis moves to the right of Trump and Vance by opposing LEGAL immigration, and Marjorie Taylor Greene bucks Trump by darting the left and playing kissy-face with the hosts of The View.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Mark Belling Podcast #86: Trump wants a crime-busting US Attorney in Wisconsin and gets it in Brad Schimel, Trump culls the herd and MJT is out, the consensus was wrong (as usual): tariffs aren't inflationary but may be recessionary, and Mark doesn't understand the point of DoorDash

A new survey says 40% of women under 45 want to leave the country (then go!), Trump gets a federal prosecutor for eastern Wisconsin and it's somebody whose been around the block and has battlescars to prove it, Ford's CEO says he can't find mechanics even after offering $120K a year.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Mark Belling Podcast #85: As Dems cave on disastrous government shutdown, a new debate on the right over legal immigration (the H-1B visas, etc.). It's pretty clear Trump is misunderstood on both the left AND right. Also, yet another Democrat ponders running for Governor while Republicans start to unite behind Tiffany. And, our weekly football preview and point spread picks

Mark analyzes the H-1B visa debate and how it is dividing some on the right.   It's another example of the failure by many to figure out Trump (he's a commonsense pragmatist, not an ideologue).   A massive security breach results in a loaded gun magazine on a Frontier aircraft.   And, we preview the state high school football semifinals along with outr weekly look at college and the NFL.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Mark Belling Podcast #84: Why Marxism is on the rise in the US, why it is certain to fail and why it will also lead to more and more violence. Also: evidence is mounting that tearing down I-794 is a really, really, really stupid idea. And, the guy from "The Big Short" is warning of a tech stock price bubble based on misleading profit statements

Mark focuses on why so many affluent and educated people are embracing Marxism and how it will lead to more violence in the US (Joe Rogan says a Civil War).  The new DPI report card says all our schools are great!  (What a bunch of shilling hacks.)  And, Pat Murphy beats Craig Counsell again.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Mark Belling Podcast #83: Mark analyzes the developing civil war in the MAGA influencer world as Candace and Tucker are accused of going off the rails. Also, the dysfunction that led to a substitute teacher showing up at a Muskego school drunk to a 0.36 BAC on fourth OWI (low/no bail strikes again). And, Trump wants to reward the dedicated air traffic controllers and dock the no-shows.

Mark weighs in on the conservative pundits too busy attacking each other to fight the growing Marxist movement.   A lenient court system and lazy school bureaucrats enable a frighteningly drunk teacher.   And guess which football team scored 218 points the last four weeks?See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Mark Belling Podcast #82:  Trump makes a compelling argument that tariffs (and the threat of them) are creating a safer and more peaceful world.  Also: will the Supreme Court strip Trump of his tariff powers and our weekly football preview and point spread picks.

Under President Trump, trade and foreign policy are no longer separate issues.  Instead, trade is his most important foreign policy tool.   Also: is the stock market terribly overvalued?   A new stat on the age of first time home buyers explains a lot.  And Mark and Mike Merlet analyze this weekend's Packers-Eagles game.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Mark Belling Podcast #81: Democrat silence aids DPI/Underly coverup of Wisconsin teacher sex abuse scandal, New York elects a Communist Mayor and the Democrats are happy (because they are Communists too) and a Milwaukee jury rightly acquits a firefighter and his brother who beat up a home invader.

Mark asks why Democrats aren't demanding the resignation of DPI chief Jill Underly for her agency's coverup of predator teachers.  Also: The Democrats become Communist with the Mamdani election in New York, comically weak criminal charges against a local police chief and Mark's mixed assessment of former Vice President Dick Cheney.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Mark Belling Podcast #80: Judicial roulette: A Milwaukee County Judge gets tough on a wrong way drunk driver while a Waukesha County Judge goes lenient on a guy who did the same thing, the Democrats demand the Republicans fix the Obamacare disaster they created, Tucker Kraft's career is jeopardized by football's worst injury and guess who wants to run for Governor?

Democrats freak out that Mandela Barnes wants to run for Governor because they know he'd lose.  Some Milwaukee County judges are tougher than some Waukesha County judges and two wrong-way drunk driving cases prove it.  Mark analyzes President Trump's navigating the government shutdown and the need for an Obamacare bailout.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
