It's Friday, March 20th, A.D. 2026. This is The Worldview in 5 Minutes heard on 140 radio stations and at www.TheWorldview.com. I'm Adam McManus. (Adam@TheWorldview.com) By Adam McManus Communist Cuban officials detain 16-year-old protestor Protests in Morón, Cuba, erupted the night of March 13 and lasted through the next day in response to a week of blackouts and shortages of medical and food supplies, reports International Christian Concern. Protestors ransacked and set fire to the Cuban Communist Party's headquarters. Among those arrested on March 16 were Evangelical Pastor Elier Ávila and his son, Jonathan. Though the pastor is now free, his 16-year-old son is still behind bars. While his son was accused of participating in the vandalism, some suggest that Cuban officials painted many of the law-abiding protestors of criminal mischief. Anna Stangl, the Director of Advocacy for Christian Solidarity Worldwide, said, “The detention of a 16-year-old child, with a serious medical condition, simply because he attempted to exercise his freedom of expression, is unconscionable.   “Despite the gravity of the situation on the island–with rampant hunger, scarcity of medicine, outbreaks of disease, and the failure of the power grid, the answer of President Miguel Canel, and the Cuban Communist Party, is to round up and imprison those who dare to call for change.”  Please send a 2-3 sentence letter to Ambassador Lianys Rivera urging Cuba to release Pastor Elier Ávila's son, Jonathan. Invite your children to send a letter as well. The address at the Cuban Embassy is 2630 16th Street NW, Washington, DC 20009. Trump's snappy rely to Japanese reporter During a meeting with Japanese Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi on Thursday, U.S. President Donald Trump was bold in his response to a provocative question from a Japanese reporter, according to Real Clear Politics. Listen. REPORTER: “Japan and U.S. are very good friends. But one question: Why didn't you tell U.S. allies in Europe and Asia, like Japan, about the war before attacking Iran? So, we are very confused about, we Japanese citizens.” TRUMP: “One thing, you don't want to signal too much, you know? When we go in, we went in very hard, and we didn't tell anybody about it because we wanted surprise. Who knows better about surprise than Japan? Okay? Why didn't you tell me about Pearl Harbor? (laughter) Okay? Right? “No, you believe in surprise, I think much more so than us. We had to surprise them, and we did. And because of that surprise, we knocked out, in the first two days, we probably knocked out 50 percent of what we and much more than we anticipated doing. So, if I go and tell everybody about it, there's no longer a surprise, right?” Joseph Duggar arrested for sexually abusing a minor Joseph Duggar, from the reality TV show "19 Kids and Counting," was arrested Wednesday on allegations of sexually abusing a minor during a family vacation in Panama City Beach, Florida, reports NewsNation.com. The married 31-year-old former reality star, who has three children of his own, was charged with lewd and lascivious conduct with a minor and molestation of a victim less than 12 years old. His arrest occurred years after his 38-year-old brother, Josh Duggar,  was convicted of child pornography charges. Officials say the victim identified Joseph Duggar as the abuser, saying he repeatedly asked her to sit on his lap. She said these incidents would allegedly progress into Joseph Duggar covering her with a blanket and touching her inappropriately. The victim reportedly stated that Joseph Duggar apologized for his actions, and the incidents stopped. Officials say the victim's father confronted him on Tuesday, and Joseph confessed his sins to both the father and detectives in Tonitown, Arkansas. In Matthew 18:6, Jesus said, “But whoever causes one of these little ones who believe in Me to stumble, it would be better for him to have a great millstone fastened around his neck and to be drowned in the depth of the sea.” Late-term abortionist, who died, had no regrets Susan Robinson, one of America's most infamous late-term abortionists, died earlier this month, less than a year after being diagnosed with cancer, according to an Instagram post made by her fellow abortionist Shelly Sella. She wrote, “Susan was my friend and colleague in third trimester abortion …, both in Wichita and Albuquerque. Susan was drawn to abortion … by her sense of justice, which never wavered. … Together, we helped create a model of abortion.” LifeSiteNews.com reports that Shelly Sella emphasized that Susan Robinson had “no regrets” and that she was “very pleased about the whole business” before she died. Jonathon Van Maren wrote, “Reading the news about Robinson, my mind was immediately drawn to two videos I had seen her in. The first was After Tiller, a 2013 documentary featuring four late-term abortionists, which I reviewed over a decade ago. It struck me that two of the featured abortionists – Susan Robinson and Leroy Carhart – are now dead, while Warren Hern and Shelly Sella are retired.” The second was the video footage published by David Daleiden of the Center for Medical Progress in his bombshell undercover investigation exposing the abortion industry and the trafficking of baby body parts. At one point, the late Susan Robinson tells Daleiden, “The fetus is a tough little object, and taking it apart … is very difficult,” Robinson tells Daleiden at one point. “I mean, taking it apart on day one is very difficult.” Later: “You go in there, and you go, ‘Am I getting the uterus, or the fetus? Oh good, fetus. [Robinson made a stabbing sound] What have I got? Nothing. Let's try again.'” Van Maren concludes, “Translated: It is hard work to dismember and crush a baby. This was Robinson's sense of justice.” Micah 6:8 says, “[God] has shown you, O mortal, what is good. And what does the Lord require of you? To act justly and to love mercy and to walk humbly with your God.” Actor Chuck Norris hospitalized And finally, Chuck Norris, the 86-year-old actor and martial arts icon, has been hospitalized in Hawaii following a medical emergency, reports NewsNation.com. The incident occurred on Wednesday on the island of Kauai, though the nature of the emergency has not been disclosed. The hospitalization appeared to be sudden. As recently as Wednesday of this week, Norris was on the phone with a friend while training on the island, cracking jokes, and showing no signs of distress. Norris had been actively training in Kauai in the days before the emergency. A black belt in karate, taekwondo, tang soo do and Brazilian jiu-jitsu, Norris posted a video on his birthday, March 10, showing him sparring with a trainer. NORRIS: "I don't age. I level up." The caption read, “I'm 86 today! Nothing like some playful action on a sunny day to make you feel young. I'm grateful for another year, good health, and the chance to keep doing what I love.” Though largely retired from acting in recent years, Norris has remained active on screen. He had a cameo in “Hawaii Five-0” in 2020 and a lead role in the 2024 sci-fi action film “Agent Recon.” Close And that's The Worldview on this Friday, March 20th, in the year of our Lord 2026. Follow us on X or subscribe for free by Spotify, Amazon Music, or by iTunes or email to our unique Christian newscast at www.TheWorldview.com.  Plus, you can get the Generations app through Google Play or The App Store.

Don't blame religion, because what is happening today is actually history. The government and media are lying, even with all the people's cameras rolling. Officials lying is not a new invention, so their framework is wrong too. Israel is a governing state, it's not a religion or a people. Anti-Semitism is a political weapon. Pick your team if you want, but who made you God? Humans have agendas, and those change stories. How the Huntington framework gets built. Don't just follow the money, follow the power too. Who benefits from having religious enemies? Who suffers? God is real, and so is the human spiritual craving. Your faith is yours, and it lives in you. Always let new information land. The Sunni Muslim family, and The Church of the Holy Sepulcher. The morning tradition of the key. No government rules religion. Hitler exported the Jews to Palestine. Jesus is mentioned many times in the Quran. The demise of Greece involved liberalism. The Roman Christian church was created for control. Edward Said and Orientalism. Unusual shutdowns cause suspicion. The first shutdown of the Holy Church since 1400's. Watch the water, and the skies.Evil is closely following the script. Above all, it's critical to keep your faith in humanity.

Wars are fought by militaries — but they're usually ended by diplomats. So, what happens when diplomacy is sidelined?Officials from Washington and Tehran engaged in talks for weeks, trying to avoid war before the U.S. and Israel fired missiles targeting Iran weeks ago.

And about the off ramps for all sides involved.We look at the role diplomacy plays once a war is already raging — and what happens when negotiations, expertise, and international alliances are weakened.Find more of our programs online.

Crime Talk Store: https://scottreisch.com/crime-talk-store The investigation into the disappearance of 84-year-old Nancy Guthrie has taken a new turn as authorities reportedly focus on two critical January dates: January 11 and January 24.

Nancy Guthrie was last seen at her Tucson home on the evening of January 31, and authorities say she was taken against her will in the early hours of February 1 by an unidentified masked individual captured on home surveillance. Officials have said the case appears to be targeted, and investigators are also exploring the possibility of an accomplice. DNA evidence, surveillance footage, and prior video requests are all part of the ongoing investigation. The family has remained mostly quiet publicly, while Savannah Guthrie has spoken emotionally about fearing for her mother's safety.

One of the most salacious and storied methods of KGB spycraft during the Cold War was the honey trap. Agents would get an informant to seduce a target, usually a Westerner deemed important. Then use that encounter as blackmail. We're all aware of this thanks to movies and television. What we know nothing about are same-sex honey traps. The KGB's use of homosexual men to seduce other men, whether said men were gay or not. Officials, academics, businessmen and other power positions were targets. How do we know about these operations? Well, because of the intrepid research of historian Irina Roldugina. Roldugina got access to KGB files related to same-sex operations and found more information in, of all things, declassified US government documents related to the Kennedy Assassination. How did these operations work? Who did the KGB tap for same-sex seduction? What do these documents tell us? And what did the KGB think of homosexuality in general? The Eurasian Knot spoke to Irina about her recent article, “The Cold War and the Soviet KGB's Same-Sex Entrapment Operations in the 1950s and 1960s: The Perpetrator in Focus” published in the Fall 2025 issue of Journal of Cold War Studies. Guest:Irina Roldugina is a Leverhulme Early Career Fellow in the School of Modern Languages at the University of Bristol. She's the author of several articles on queer history in the Soviet Union. Her most recent is “The Cold War and the Soviet KGB's Same-Sex Entrapment Operations in the 1950s and 1960s: The Perpetrator in Focus” published in the Fall 2025 issue of Journal of Cold War Studies.

First Grizzly Bear of 2026 Spotted in Yellowstone National Park On March 9, Yellowstone biologists working in the northern part of the park reported seeing the first grizzly bear of the spring season. The bear was observed in the backcountry scavenging on a bull bison carcass. The first reported grizzly bear sighting of 2025 occurred on March 14. In 2024, it occurred on March 3, and in 2022 and 2023, March 7. When bears emerge from hibernation, they look for food and often feed on elk and bison that died over the winter. Bears may react aggressively to encounters with people when feeding on carcasses. Male grizzlies come out of hibernation in early March. Females with cubs emerge in April and early May. All of Yellowstone is grizzly and black bear country: from the deepest backcountry to the boardwalks and parking lots around Old Faithful. Protect yourself and bears by following our safety guidelines: Prepare for a bear encounter by carrying bear spray, knowing how to use it and making sure it's accessible. Stay alert. Hike or ski in groups of three or more, stay on maintained trails and make noise. Avoid hiking at dusk, dawn or at night. Do not run if you encounter a bear. Stay 100 yards (91 m) away from black and grizzly bears. Approaching bears within 100 yards is prohibited. Use binoculars, a telescope or telephoto lens to get a closer look. Store food, garbage, barbecue grills and other attractants in hard-sided vehicles or bear-proof food storage boxes. Report bear sightings and encounters to a park ranger immediately.

Officials with the Texas Parks and Wildlife Department say Curtis Lee Daniels entered a Largemouth Bass in a tournament at Lake Fork that was later found to contain three three-quarter-ounce fishing weights inside its stomach. According to an affidavit obtained by KLTV, investigators also reported finding the same type of weights in Daniels' boat. The fishing tournament offered an overall prize of 11-thousand, five-hundred dollars. Daniels was arrested Sunday and booked into the Wood County Jail. He is being held on a 20-thousand-dollar bond on a charge of violating a fishing tournament law, which is considered a third-degree felony in Texas. If convicted, Daniels could face up to ten years in prison and fines of up to ten thousand dollars. Officials say other possible penalties include losing his fishing license and paying civil restitution.

The disqualifications happened during the 2026 Camel Beauty Show Festival in Oman. Veterinary inspectors found evidence that some camels had been given cosmetic injections and other enhancements. According to reports from Vice Media and Forbes, the procedures included hyaluronic acid injections in the lips, dermal fillers, silicone around the nose, Botox to soften facial features, and silicone wax used to inflate the animals' humps. Those treatments violate competition rules, which require that camels be judged only on their natural physical traits. Camel beauty contests are popular across the Gulf region, where prized animals compete for prestige and sometimes large prize money. Judges typically evaluate features like the camel's  coat, neck, head, and hump—traits meant to reflect selective breeding rather than cosmetic enhancement. Organizers, including the Camel Club and the Oman Camel Racing Federation, say they're committed to preventing manipulation in the competitions and plan to enforce strict penalties for breeders who break the rules. The incident has also renewed debate about how far some competitors are willing to go in pursuit of victory—especially when a camel looks, as officials put it, “too good to be true.” Reference: https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/world/2026/03/06/camels-disqualified-beauty-pageant-cosmetic-injections-oman/89023631007/ OUTDOORS FIELD REPORTS & COMMENTS We want to hear from you!

Edwin B. Henderson II is the author of the book, The Grandfather of Black Basketball: The Life and Times of Dr. E. B. Henderson. Henderson is the grandson and namesake of Dr. E. B. Henderson who organized the first athletic league for Blacks, introduced basketball to Black people on a wide-scale, organized basis, and founded associations to train and organize Black officials and referees. He also wrote and co-edited the first Spalding publication that highlighted the exploits of African American participation in sports and authored The Negro in Sports. Outside of athletics, Henderson was instrumental in founding the first rural branch of the NAACP, advocated for school desegregation, and held executive board positions with multiple NAACP branches.Overlooked for decades, Henderson and his wife, Nikki, began nominating Dr. E. B. Henderson to be inducted into the Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame in 2005, and after eight years, EB was finally enshrined in 2013as a contributor. The Grandfather of Black Basketball gives long-overdue recognition to a sports pioneer, civil rights activist, author, educator, and pragmatic humanitarian who fought his entire life to improve opportunities for youth through athletics.On this episode Mike & Ed discuss the extraordinary contributions of Dr. E.B. Henderson, a pioneering figure in the realm of basketball and a dedicated civil rights activist.

Through the lens of his grandson, Edwin B. Henderson II, we explore the impact of Dr. Henderson's initiatives, including the formation of the Eastern Board of Officials, which facilitated organized sports within the African American community.

Polish prosecutors have opened a formal investigation into potential links between Jeffrey Epstein's trafficking network and activities connected to Poland after newly released U.S. documents suggested the possibility that victims may have been recruited there. Authorities from the National Prosecutor's Office said the probe will examine suspected human trafficking that may have occurred between 2009 and 2019 involving women and girls who were allegedly recruited under false pretenses and then transported abroad for sexual exploitation. Investigators are focusing on whether Polish citizens, including minors, were targeted as part of a broader international trafficking scheme tied to Epstein and his associates. The inquiry is being handled by a specialized investigative team established specifically to examine the Polish threads emerging from the newly disclosed Epstein records.The investigation could expand beyond trafficking allegations to examine the activities of an organized criminal group operating internationally and any crimes connected to Poland, whether committed within the country or involving Polish citizens abroad. Prosecutors said the probe was triggered after reviewing the large trove of Epstein-related documents released in the United States, which raised credible suspicions that trafficking may have involved recruitment efforts in Poland. As part of the investigation, Polish authorities plan to seek evidence and cooperation from other European countries while also encouraging potential victims to come forward. Officials have emphasized that the goal is to determine the full scope of any Polish connections to Epstein's network and to pursue criminal accountability wherever Polish jurisdiction applies.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Poland launches investigation into Epstein files

A U.S. military aerial refueling tanker that was involved in the U.S. military operation in Iran crashed in Iraq on Thursday. Charlie D'Agata has the latest. (Editor's note: Officials confirmed Friday that all six crew members were killed. ) Rabbi Josh Bennett of Temple Israel and Cassi Cohen, a staff member who was inside at the time, speak to "CBS Mornings" about the attack at the Michigan synagogue. The two credit the security training of the staff, saying "we know that these moments can happen to us, but we will always be prepared." Jocelyn Peters, an award-winning third grade teacher in Missouri, was found shot to death in her bed in 2016. Inside her apartment, police found potato fragments splattered in her bedroom and when questioned about the case, a man swallowed potential evidence - leaving investigators searching for answers.

Officials say the threat echoes past mysterious drone activity near U.S. shores and raises fresh concerns about sleeper cells and covert attacks.  Bryan also explains the broader strategic picture in the war with Iran, including how Tehran may use unconventional tactics to strike back while the U.S. and its allies attempt to contain the conflict and prevent further escalation across the Middle East and beyond.    "And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free." - John 8:32     Keywords: Iran war update, Operation Epic Fury, Iranian drone threat West Coast, Los Angeles terror threat Iran, U.S. homeland security Iran conflict, Iran sleeper cells U.S., Middle East war escalation Iran, Bryan Dean Wright podcast, The Wright Report, geopolitics Iran conflict

   In an absolutely shocking twist in DC, longtime wishy washy Republican John Cornyn of Texas has come out in favor of blowing up the filibuster in the Senate to fund DHS and pass the Save America Act.  Hmmm, where have you heard that idea before?  Well, it's hard for Cornyn to look sincere in this as he faces a runoff against conservative Ken Paxton to determine November's GOP candidate.. but we'll take it.  Sometimes, even when the will of the people is heard, it feels hollow.    Meanwhile, President Trump and Marco Rubio have offered Cuba's leadership an off ramp with a solid economic deal that will fundamentally change life for all the great people living there.  It's a simple offer.... you leave and let the people elect who they want and we will always protect Cuba and do business and make you wealthy and great.  After Venezuela and Iran... let's see if they are smart enough to take the deal.    Officials in California, including Gavin Newsom, go public that they've been informed the state could be a target for unmanned Iranian drones off unknown vessels in the Pacific just off the coast.    Pasquatch went nuts for team Italy in the World Baseball Classic with a record three home runs in a win over Mexico.  It sends the USA to the quarterfinals as well... and then Vinnie said some really strange things in his post game comments.    Bill Self is asked about retiring as KU gets ready for TCU Thursday night.  Mizzou has a big one as a three point underdog versus Kentucky.  The NFL wants to add another marquee, stand alone game around a certain holiday and Tom Brady sets the record for all time media gaffe by a former player.

On August 4th, 2019, 15-year-old Nora Anne Quoirin vanished from a remote eco-resort in Malaysia.  She was on vacation with her family at The Dusun, a rainforest retreat meant for rest and quiet. But that morning, her family woke to find her gone. The window of her room was open. Nora—who had developmental disabilities and relied heavily on her parents—had disappeared into dense jungle terrain. Authorities would later say there were no signs of forced entry, and no evidence of abduction.For ten days, hundreds of searchers combed the rainforest. They called her name through thick heat and relentless brush. Helicopters circled overhead. Volunteers trekked through ravines and riverbeds.Then, more than a mile from the resort, Nora's body was found near a stream. An autopsy concluded she likely died from prolonged stress and starvation.  Officials ruled her death a misadventure. But her family has long questioned how a vulnerable teenager could have traveled that far alone—and why certain details have never quite added up.Listen as we dive into Malaysia, the case of Nora Quoirin, and how to stay alive on vacation.Do you have a story to share?

Tonight, Don breaks down the rapidly expanding conflict, the rising number of injuries and casualties, and the growing fear that this war could spiral far beyond what Americans were told to expect. The situation in Iran is escalating fast, and the human cost is climbing. New reports say roughly 140 U.S. service members have already been injured and at least seven killed since the conflict began. Meanwhile, the White House is sending mixed signals about what comes next. Officials have refused to completely rule out the possibility of a military draft, insisting that the president wants to “keep options on the table” as the war unfolds. So where is this headed? Will the U.S. actually reinstate the draft? How far are Trump and his administration willing to push this conflict?And how many more American lives will be put on the line?

In this White House press briefing, administration officials provide updates on Operation Epic Fury, outlining the progress of U.S. military operations against Iran and the broader strategic objectives of the campaign. Officials report that thousands of enemy targets have already been struck, with Iranian missile and drone attacks sharply reduced as U.S. forces continue targeting missile infrastructure and naval capabilities. The administration reiterates its goal of dismantling Iran's ability to threaten the region and ensuring the regime can never obtain a nuclear weapon. The briefing also addresses the administration's strategy for stabilizing global energy markets amid the conflict. Officials explain steps taken to keep the Strait of Hormuz open, including coordination with industry leaders, temporary sanctions adjustments, and potential naval protections for oil tankers if necessary. The administration maintains that any recent increases in fuel prices are expected to be temporary as operations continue.
