It's Tuesday, April 25th, A.D. 2023. This is The Worldview in 5 Minutes heard at www.TheWorldview.com.  I'm Adam McManus.  (Adam@TheWorldview.com) By Kevin Swanson U.S. government employees evacuated out of Sudan All U.S. government employees were evacuated from Sudan, Africa over the weekend, and the U.S. embassy has been temporarily closed. U.S. officials say there are 16,000 American citizens in country. As The Worldview reported last Thursday, this comes in the wake of heavy fighting between various military factions on the streets of Khartoum. Here's what has happened in Sudan.   In 2019, two military generals joined forces to oust Sudanese President Omar al-Bashira, whose dictatorship began in 1993. After a short bout with “democracy,” factions belonging to General Abdel-Fattah Burhan and General Mohammed Hamdan Dagalo can't seem to get along with each other. They have resorted to killing each other in the streets.   Fox News abruptly fired Tucker Carlson Despite his position as the top-rated program on Fox News, conservative news guy, Tucker Carlson, is gone as of yesterday, reports LifeSiteNews.com. Some analysts have connected the parting with the recent Fox News' out-of-court settlement of $800 million to the benefit of Dominion Voting Systems. Some of Fox News' commentators had questioned the integrity of the votes cast in the 2020 presidential election. Among his more controversial comments, Carlson recently referred to the transgender movement as  “The natural enemy of Christianity.” He defended a congregation in Idaho, members of whom were arrested for singing hymns outdoors.   In September 2021, Carlson noted that “What's dying is the faith that created Western civilization – Christianity. In its place is a new creed, and like all religions, it has its own sacraments, its own sacred texts. It's the cult of coronavirus.” Time Magazine referred to Carlson as “the most powerful conservative in 2021.”   Tucker joins the list of other dismissals with a conservative edge, including Bill O'Reilly, Dan Bongino, Glenn Beck, Sarah Palin, and Todd Starnes.   Of the regular well-known conservative voices dominating the airwaves over the last 20 years, Sean Hannity remains with Fox.  Donald Trump honored Pastor Charles Stanley Donald Trump was among the folks paying respect at the memorial service for Pastor Charles Stanley in Atlanta, Georgia.   The former president reminisced on the pastor's “incredible kindness and humble spirit when he met with me in the Oval Office. As he prayed for me and the nation, I knew God was hearing that prayer.” Also attending the service were Pastors Tony Evans, Chuck Swindoll, and Robert Jeffress of First Baptist Dallas as well as Christian evangelist Franklin Graham.  You can watch a video of the service, which also featured the songs of Greater Vision, through a special link in our transcript today at www.TheWorldview.com. FBI yet to release transgender's manifesto in Christian school rampage The FBI is dragging its heels on releasing a manifesto and assorted documents left by the Nashville Covenant School mass murderer who was a female pretending to be a male. The New York Post quotes Metro Nashville Council Member Courtney Johnston that the document is a "blueprint on total destruction” and she said the document “in the wrong person's hands would be astronomically dangerous.” From Audrey Hale's home, officials have seized “twenty journals, five laptops, suicide notes, two memoirs, five Covenant School yearbooks, and seven cellphones.” As the world searches for a motive, Romans 1 explains, “Even as they did not like to retain God in their knowledge, God gave them over to a reprobate mind, to do those things which are not fitting; Being filled with all unrighteousness, fornication, wickedness, covetousness, maliciousness; full of envy, and … murder.” House prices have fallen again Based on March prices, median prices of homes sold in the U.S. have fallen twice, year-over-year, representing the first fall in home prices since 2012, reports WolfStreet. Sales are down 22% year-over-year. The worst sales drops are happening in Western states — 31% down from last year.  Bed Bath and Beyond filed bankruptcy Bed Bath and Beyond filed bankruptcy on Sunday. Wolf Street points out that the company wasted $11.6 billion of investment cash on buybacks on their own stocks.  Companies that have engaged in stock buybacks this year, as a last ditch effort to prop up their company values, include Chevron, Salesforce, UPS, Discover Financial Services, and Agilent Technologies. Big stock buybacks for 2022 included Apple at $90 billion, Morgan Stanley and Walmart at $20 billion each as well as Nike, Cisco, Home Depot, Visa, and Exxon-Mobil. Inflation is crippling And finally, in economic news, inflation is killing American savings. The Personal Finance Index of George Washington University's Global Financial Literacy Excellence Center found that a quarter of Americans have cut their retirement savings and 12% totally quit saving last year. Now, 30% are finding it tough to make ends meet, up from 24% in 2021. And 39% of Americans do not have enough savings to cover a month of expenses — up from 32% in 2021.  Remember what Jesus said in Matthew 6:19. “Lay up for yourselves treasures in Heaven, where neither moth nor rust destroys and where thieves do not break in and steal.”  Close And that's The Worldview in 5 Minutes on this Tuesday, April 25th  in the year of our Lord 2023. Subscribe by iTunes or email to our unique Christian newscast at www.TheWorldview.com.

After a post-Cold War hiatus, Russia is returning to Africa. Through both traditional diplomacy and the deployment of security contractors, Moscow's influence on the continent is growing. Particularly controversial has been the role of the Wagner Group, a Russian military contractor. In the Central African Republic (CAR), Wagner forces have been at the forefront of operations against rebels. Overall, Russia's muscular new visibility on the continent has unsettled Western powers. This week on Hold Your Fire!, Pauline Bax, Crisis Group's senior Africa adviser, joins Richard Atwood and guest co-host Comfort Ero. Pauline has just written a piece on Russia's role in CAR. They discuss how Russian mercenaries have shifted battlefield dynamics in that country in the government's favour and popular perceptions of their gains, both in the capital Bangui and in areas affected by fighting. They discuss how Moscow, which had close ties to former Sudanese President Omar al-Bashir, has navigated Sudan's revolution. They also talk about Russia's emerging role in the Sahel, where it has sought to capitalise on anti-France sentiment to win influence. They ask what Russia's aims are in Africa and what the impact of its increased presence is for Africans themselves.For more information, explore Crisis Group's analysis on our Russia and Africa pages.

After two decades the United States has removed sanctions against Sudan. Washington says the nation has taken steps towards addressing terrorism and human rights abuses. But critics say the Trump administration has made the wrong call. Sudanese President Omar al Bashir is still wanted by the International Criminal Court for genocide. And rights groups say Sudan is still plagued by violations against civilians. So how much progress has the government actually made? And could there be other reasons for Washington's kindness?

The United Nations has refused to comment on the specifics of the International Criminal Court ruling against South Africa but has rather reaffirmed the Court as a centerpiece of international justice. The Court on Thursday ruled that Pretoria failed to comply with the ICC's request for arrest and surrender of Sudanese President Omar al-Bashir and thus prevented the Court from exercising its functions and powers. That was the judgment handed down by the Court's pre-trial chamber after Pretoria failed to arrest President Al-Bashir when he visited Johannesburg during an African Union Heads of State Summit in 2015. The Court also rejected South Africa's arguments that al-Bashir enjoyed immunity while in the country as a visiting head of state.

Government says it may take the Supreme Court of Appeals ruling on Sudanese President Omar al-Bashir to the Constitutional court. It was reacting to the SCA's dismissal of government's appeal against the Pretoria High Court ruling that al-Bashir should have been arrested when he attended the African Union (AU) Summit in Johannesburg in June last year. The SCA ruled that government as a signatory to the Rome Statute, was obliged to arrest Al-Bashir and hand him over to the International Criminal Court in the Hague and that it had acted unlawfully by allowing him to leave the country

The ANC says the "ICC has lost its direction and is no longer pursuing that principle of an instrument that is fair for everybody" and has thus urged the South African government to begin the process of withdrawing from the international body. This is according to the party's international relations subcommittee Chairperson Obed Bapela who addressed reporters at the NGC meeting in Midrand (on Sunday). In June 13 2015, the Southern Africa Litigation Centre (SALC) brought an urgent application before the High Court seeking that Sudanese President Omar al-Bashir be arrested while in South Africa for the African Union Summit.
