The big news this week is about national security advisor Mike Waltz being fired or demoted from his position, presumably over his misuse of the Signal App for government communications. The irony is, Mike Waltz was fired a day after praising President Trump during his recent cabinet meeting. We are again reminded about the true ways and agenda of President Trump in just his second 100 days: Power-hungry Deceptive Selfish Uncompassionate Honestly, Mike Waltz should have learned his lesson and...

The big news this week has been President Trump’s ongoing tariff war with China and other nations. President Trump is hell-bent on earthly greatness in a temporary kingdom that will not last no matter what he or any politician does. God’s people are called to be different and know true greatness isn’t like this world’s greatness: Winning Power Selfish Prideful One of the most basic warnings to God’s people is not to covet or keep wanting more (Exodus 20:17.) As... Read more

This week, the big news has been the passing of Pope Francis. I remember thinking on Easter as he spoke to the masses, “He doesn’t look like he is all there.” I believe the whole world has been watching him slowly fade away with age. The response to the Pope’s passing has been tremendous with people gathering in Rome from every nation around the globe to pay their respects. We shouldn’t be surprised by the death of the Pope or...

TheyThe big news this weekend has continued to be President Trump’s tariffs and his flip-flop on them. He continues to push his tariffs on the world like a political bully, even on our closest allies. The worldwide fallout has created an unstable world economy, with the cost of everything from basic needs to electronics skyrocketing. As I write this the president has announced a temporary hold on electronic device tariffs. Perhaps the president remembered his pledge to lower prices for... Read more

This week a lot of the big news has been about the Supreme Court once again. The president has been hell-bent on deporting as many illegal immigrants as possible. He’s even invoked the nearly 200-year-old Alien Enemies Act to justify his rapid deportation of immigrants that he has labeled as dangerous. However, the court did give the president one stipulation, the immigrants had to be given notice of deportation and the due process to contest the deportation. The Supreme Court... Read more
