This week we talk about borders, trade wars, and belligerence.We also discuss Trump's tariffs, inflation, and nationalism.Recommended Book: Vulture Capitalism by Grace BlakeleyTranscriptThe US and Canada share the longest international border in the world, totaling more than 5,500 miles, or nearly 8,900 km. The specific details of this border have changed over the decades, but the current delineation was largely in place following the San Juan Islands water arbitration of 1872, which brought a 12-year joint military standoff between the US and Great Britain, known as the Pig War, to an end, and fed into a 1908 legal framework that relied on modern mapping of the entire frontier, which led to the precise cartography of the current international border between the US and Canada.Since then, after some issues with gold rush-era land rights were figured out in Alaska, and some treaties were signed regarding the disarmament of the Great Lakes, things have been pretty calm along this massive border. Trade hasn't always been the most efficient and free—the early 20th century in particular was pretty fraught in this regard, as Anti-Americanism raged through Canada. That led to a dismissal of a proposed lowering of trade barriers by the Canadian Liberal government in 1911, anti-American sentiment flogged by the Conservatives, who rode their slogan, “No truck or trade with the Yankees,” to a Canadian nationalism-powered victory.After the US entered WWI and the Allies tallied a victory, though, the US and Canada exchanged their first ambassadors, Warren Harding became the first US President to make an official visit the confederated Canada, visiting Vancouver in 1923, and things between these two countries were looking pretty good until 1930, when the US passed the Smoot-Hawley Tariff Act, which was a protectionist trade act that, among other things, raised tariffs on incoming Canadian goods in order to protect competing American business interests; making the local offerings artificially more competitive than the stuff coming in from Canada, basically.The Canadian government hit back with their own higher tariffs and shifted more of their trade to other Commonwealth nations, which led to a decrease in trade between the US and Canada of about 75%; and this was happening during the Great Depression, which is why that Act was enacted, the US government was hoping to bolster their own economy, but instead of helping, it furthered those economic difficulties, because of that drop in trade and international custom—Smoot-Hawley is generally considered to have been an incredibly bad economic move, and US President Hoover signed it against the advice of senior economists, because it seemed politically expedient, US businesses were clamoring for advantages because they thought it would help them, but instead it worsened the Great Depression, and this Act is now taught as a cautionary example of why protectionist trade policies, while appealing in a nationalist sense, tend to be pretty bad, almost always, economically.US-Canadian relations improved a bit in the WWII-era, and into the early decades of the Cold War. By the late-1960s, the US had become Canada's largest export market, and that's why Nixon's 1971 decision to enact a 10% tariff on all imports, including those from Canada, hit the Canadian economy so hard. Overall US-Canadian relations soured during Nixon's time in the White House, in part because the Canadian government pivoted toward Europe, rather than kowtowing to the US' economic demands, and Nixon's belligerence in the face of that pivot didn't help matters.When US President Carter stepped into office, however, things improved for a while, and though there were serious bouts of stagflation in both nations through his time in the White House, American investment in Canada increased, and relations continued to be friendly leading into the 1990s, at which point the North American Free Trade Agreement, or NAFTA was signed, in 1994. NAFTA created a common market in North America, between the US, Canada, and Mexico, and that meant the $19 trillion or so in trade between the 470 million people or so living in North America by 2014, would be entirely or almost entirely without barriers, no tariffs or very small, focused tariffs.Though imperfect by many measures, NAFTA is generally considered to have been a major success, at least in terms of raw economic productivity in North America. And in 2020, is was replaced by the USMCA, the United States-Mexico-Canada Agreement, which is often called NAFTA 2.0, which is in many ways just a modernization of NAFTA that updates many of the earlier provisions and focuses more on digital trade and intellectual property than its precursor.In July of 2026, however, the US government announced that it would not be renewing the USMCA, after Canada asked the US and Mexico to renew it for another 16 years. The pact remains in effect until it expires in 2036, though it can also be renegotiated or replaced before that. The US Trump administration pointed at rising trade deficits between the US and both Mexico and Canada as the rationale for not renewing it, and at loopholes in the agreement that allowed other nations, like China, to send car components to Mexico and then essentially get Chinese vehicles into North American markets, benefitting from the agreement despite not being a signatory of it.What I'd like to talk about today is a new trade scuffle between the US and Canadian governments, and what it might mean for the two nations in the coming years if said scuffle becomes a more persistent trade war.—In July of 2026, US President Trump threatened to invoke a provision of the Smoot-Hawley Tariff Act, that Act from 1930, the Great Depression, which was previously unused, to impose additional tariffs on Canada, despite the continued existence of the USMCA trade agreement.Stepping back a bit, in his second administration, Trump has unilaterally imposed all kinds of tariffs on pretty much everybody, arguing that those tariffs would bring in more money and thus allow him to lower taxes on the wealthy and on businesses while still bringing in enough to reduce the federal deficit. This claim wasn't backed by economists and the deficit has continued to increase at a record rate under his administration, but he's continued to try this approach and make these claims, regardless.The Supreme Court eventually stepped in to limit Trump's ability to impose tariffs in early 2026, saying that the Presidency doesn't have the power to create a bunch of tariffs and impose them on everyone, even when he points at the International Emergency Economic Powers Act as justification. That halting of Trump's tariffs seem to have helped temper inflation in the US a bit, but now Trump is now taking another approach to try to accomplish the same, invoking this 1930, Great Depression-era act to try to give himself broad tariff-applying powers, once more, despite that Supreme Court decision.As I mentioned in the intro, the application of Smoot-Hawley tariffs worsened the Great Depression, as the US applied all these tariffs on foreign goods to try to give its own industries an advantage, and that led to counter-tariffs from most of its targets. Within a few years, the people behind those tariffs were booted from office, and the bad taste it left in the US government's mouth is part of what led to the wave of trade liberalization that happened post-WWII—everyone was done with the heavily tariffed trade environment because it kind of sucked for everyone, so free trade was the name of the game for decades.Now at the time, even though the tariffs had a net-negative impact on the US, they didn't exactly crush the US because international trade only made up about 10% of the US economy back then. Today, about 25-27% of US GDP relies on international trade. So still not a majority by any means, and the global average is about 63%, so the US is more capable of undertaking this sort of trade barrier strategy than many other nations, but that's still a pretty substantial chunk of economic activity in the US that's impacted by such efforts.This declaration by Trump that he would be using this old Tariff act to apply new tariffs on Canadian goods arrived after trade negotiations between the US and Canada fell apart, reportedly mere minutes before a deadline, with both sides claiming to the press that the other side attempted to make a last-minute change that was untenable.After Trump announced that additional 50% tariff on certain goods, the Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney announce that he would be matching those tariffs, dollar for dollar—a move that's likely to hurt Canada more than the US, though many US industries, including those that are already hurting because of resource shortages that have been amplified by Trump's war with Iran and the consequent shut-down of the Strait of Hormuz, not to mention all the uncertainties that have arisen because of his other tariff threats, those industries and businesses will suffer more than most; the US auto industry, for instance, relies on goods that pass back and forth across the Canadian border several times before eventually ending up in US-made automobiles. The US construction industry is likewise reliant on Canadian lumber products.It seems like Canada has generally tried to work with the US government to come to a mutually beneficial and appealing compromise, but when that happens, the US then pushes for more, then blames Canada for fighting back when the US attempts to punish them for not just giving in. And this is something the Trump administration, and Trump himself, have become fairly notorious for, so it's a decent assumption, even though we don't know all the details here, yet, that this is what happened in this case, too.And as a result, it sounds like the US will apply 50% tariffs on about $20 billion worth of Canadian goods coming into the US, including things like honey, seeds, and agricultural products, and some types of furniture, clothing, and fabric.About 72% of all Canadian exports went to the US in 2025, and many of those exports, the ones to which this new tariff will be applied, will now be more expensive, because these costs are almost always passed on to the end-consumer, not just eaten by the business, which in some cases wouldn't be able to afford to eat those higher costs and stay in business. This is part of why these sorts of tariffs often increase inflation rates.Both sides of this conflict have publicly committed to not back down, and there's political hay to be made in sticking with that sentiment; the US is not terribly popular in Canada, or in many allied countries, right now, due to the antagonistic stance the Trump administration has taken toward those relations, so the Canadian government might actually benefit from taking a hard line against the US, here. Likewise, Trump's supporters might rally around his bullying of a neighboring nation, especially if the administration can successfully frame this as an effort to reduce the deficit or support US businesses, protecting them from foreign competitors are are unfairly competing.There's still a fair bit of fog of war on all of this, and we'll know a lot more within the next few weeks, both in terms of the details of what happened, and in terms of what's likely to happen next. Right now, though, it would seem that we could be headed for a new trade war between two of the world's most deeply intertwined wealthy economies, and that could lead to a lot of global economic disruptions as some of that trade is rerouted, and as inflation continues to spiral.Show Noteshttps://apnews.com/article/trump-tariffs-canada-us-trade-war-293908564c7a381ea58a61db6e9a8517https://apnews.com/article/canada-us-trade-tariffs-trump-857ef76b20a766e370d70176135b678ehttps://apnews.com/article/canada-us-trade-war-trump-carney-tariffs-4d18583fe52134ca8550652ad9772d2chttps://www.nytimes.com/2026/08/22/business/economy-trade-war-us-canada.htmlhttps://www.axios.com/2026/02/20/trump-tariffs-supreme-court-illegalhttps://access.heinonline.com/HOL/LandingPagehttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/North_American_Free_Trade_Agreementdoi.org/10.1017%2FS0022050700019549https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Smoot%E2%80%93Hawley_Tariff_Acthttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Canada%E2%80%93United_States_trade_relationshttps://www.axios.com/2026/08/22/us-canada-tariffs-trade-trump-carneyhttps://www.npr.org/2026/08/22/nx-s1-5941584/us-canada-tariffshttps://apnews.com/article/canada-us-trade-tariffs-trump-857ef76b20a766e370d70176135b678ehttps://www.bbc.com/news/articles/cvgvyy4x2mvohttps://www.nytimes.com/2026/08/22/world/canada/carney-trump-canada-tariffs.html This is a public episode.

A six week jury trial is about to get underway in California, which could pose the biggest threat yet to Meta's operations. A coalition of US states have accused the parent company of Facebook and Instagram of putting profits ahead of children's safety, by deliberately designing platforms to be addictive to young users. A Meta spokesperson said the claims were "unsubstantiated", and the company stood by its record of creating strong protection for teenagers. The states are seeking upwards of $1 trillion from Meta. Also: President Trump's envoy and son-in-law, Jared Kushner, has failed to overturn Israel's objections to a US backed Gaza peace plan after two days of talks in the Middle East. The US President has also threatened to bomb Oman - a US ally - if it "gets in the way" of his administration's own talks with Iran. Fifa has sacked its chief operating officer Kevin Lamour, weeks after he criticised the organisation's president, Gianni Infantino. As Russia and Ukraine trade more deadly strikes, the deputy head of Ukraine's military intelligence service, GUR, tells the BBC he expects the coming winter months to be harder for civilians than last year. Russia's prominent anti-war politician Lev Shlosberg has been sentenced to eleven years in prison for criticising the conflict in Ukraine. Witnesses have begun giving testimony in the long awaited murder trial of the American rapper, Tupac Shakur. A special report on Germany's efforts to tackle small boat crossings by migrants to the UK. And how the success of Italian athletes with African heritage at the European Athletics Championships could combat racism in Italy.

US correspondent, Zach Montellaro spoke to Melissa Chan-Green about the US President saying it's "the last chance" as new negotiations with Iran get underway. It comes after a round of US military strikes were called off over the weekend to help reach a deal to reopen the Strait of Hormuz. Despite claims of fresh talks, doubt continues to be cast over whether they're actually happening.

Donald Trump continues to lash out over the damage to the Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool. The US President's turned his attack on Attorney for Washington DC Jeanine Pirro – claiming she choked and folded like an umbrella in moving to drop charges over the pool's restoration. After initially charging four people with vandalism, the Justice Department found damage to the $14 million lining instead came from a flawed, rushed contractor installation. US correspondent Richard Arnold told Mike Hosking the damage was due to the incompetence of Trump's "pool guy" from Florida. LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

It started as an English-teaching ministry in Japan in 1967. Today, A3 is raising up church leaders in 25 countries; leaders equipped and unified to accelerate gospel movements around the world, including numerous hostile areas and restricted nations where Voice of the Martyrs works with persecuted Christians. Dr Joe Handley, CEO of A3, and Janelle Stoops, US President for the ministry, share how A3 was founded and how it serves the global church by meeting one of the biggest needs: trained leaders. Janelle will share her background as a gospel worker seeing God establish his church among Muslims in Kazakhstan and Uzbekistan. She also had a personal taste of Christian persecution as she and her family were expelled from the country they'd grown to love. She wrestled with having to leave the place they felt called to, but ultimately accepted that "God was working here before we got here, and even when we leave, He is still going to be at work." Joe and Janelle will share challenges they face in ministry, how they work under the radar in places where Christian teaching is not welcome and how A3 provides resilience training to leaders in countries where there is intense persecution. These leaders also experience fellowship within the Body of Christ, knowing they are not alone in their suffering. One tool A3 uses to help build resiliency in the leaders is a book published by VOM titled In the Shadow of the Cross: https://vom.com.au/product/in-the-shadow-of-the-cross/

Donald Trump has called off strikes against Iran, provided a deal is reached rapidly. In a Truth Social post, the US President says he's been asked by Iran and other Middle Eastern countries to hold off, while the parameters of agreement are set. He says that would include the reopening of the critical Strait of Hormuz, and an end to Iran's nuclear threat. John Hopkins Foreign Policy Institute Fellow Jeffery Pryce says this is a pattern seen before. He says it feels like groundhog day - threats of military action on Friday, frantic intervention on Saturday, then an agreement is announced on Sunday.

The White House says Donald Trump's meetings with Israel and Ukraine's leaders were both positive and productive. Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and President Volodymyr Zelenskyy met separately with the US President at the Oval Office earlier today. Zelenskyy says he discussed Patriot interceptor missiles and other ideas which could help his nation's fight against Russia. US Correspondent Richard Arnold told Mike Hosking Netanyahu's visit marks his first face-to-face meeting with Trump since the start of the Iran war. He says the Israeli leader is pushing for further military escalation, after claims some of Iran's nuclear programme has been moved to an underground facility.

US President Donald Trump on Tuesday imposed 50 percent tariffs on most Canadian goods, and concerns have been raised about the economic implications. The new tariffs would exclude energy products, potash, fish and critical minerals, but would cover goods that had previously been protected from import taxes by the United States-Mexico-Canada Agreement. US correspondent Dan Mitchinson says Canadian officials haven't said much, but there's speculation Canada could raise tariffs on their own goods.

World Heath Disclosure David Eells 7-19-26 (audio) Restored Republic via a GCR Update as of Sat. 18 July 2026 by Judy Byington, Welcome To The Great Awakening Next 48 Hours, Critical Next Ten Days, Historic Next 30 Days Changes Civilization “Most don't realize how hard it is to speak the truth to a world full of people who don't realize they're living a lie.”…Edward Snowden Judy Note: On Thurs. 16 July 2026 a ceasefire was activated in Israel – confirming a global reset of Mid East stability. Hamas freed the last living Israeli hostages, while Israel released 2,000 Palestinian prisoners. It all happened just as Q predicted: “Israel would be last.” Though the next day on Fri. 17 July 2026, the US Navy resumed a full naval blockade on Iranian ports in the Strait of Hormuz. The day before Iran had bombed a US Military base, ensuring a permanent break of the ceasefire. Trump's attack was mainly financial. The blockade was costing Iran $400 million a day, while US Central Command (CENTCOM) pounded targets in wave after wave of strikes on bridges, trains and other infrastructure that would affect any trade Iran could do outside the country. Of course, Iran refusing peace and making war would keep them out of the Global Currency Reset and financial system. Trump declared, “We gave them a chance… they shot first. Big mistake.” It was a typical Trump reaction. Because of the Global Military Alliance led by the US President and Commander-in-Chief, Deep State Elites were finally collapsing, while Sovereigns of the World were reaching out to grasp peace and Constitutional Law under God, governed by We The People. Q said it best on Telegram today: “The UN is now obsolete, because Trump is doing their job for them. The UN does not carry out its intended function, so Trump unilaterally took over as the new UN.   “Trump created the Board of Peace, brokered all the peace deals worldwide, and is shutting down threats to the people of the world, like Iran's nukes, the American cartels, ISIS in Syria, Yemen, Nigeria, etc. “Trump is using tariffs and military precision, to operate as the UN is supposed to. Trump is now the new global peacemaker, whether you like it or not. “Nothing gets done at the UN, so Trump took matters into his own hands.” Trump had already assured that Free Energy was on it's way to every household, and with the Global Currency Reset (GCR) that just launched, currencies across the World were trading at a 1:1 with each other as backed by gold and other assets. Our financial future was safe and finally away from the fiat dollar. The GCR had caused the Deep State's privately owned IRS to find it's grave, while their Illuminati's over taxing of the American people suddenly vanished. The Cabal's Federal Reserve now held a new position under the US Treasury where at last, bankers would be held accountable for their actions. The Deep State Elite's petrodollar was dead, Oil Monopoly, dismantled. When announcements came about the new financial system, Stock Markets would collapse; banks fail; the old wealth, evaporate. Though, The People would thrive with the new gold/asset-backed currencies of 209 nations. The Health Industry around the World was being forced to actually help the body heal itself using light and sound frequencies of free Med Bed treatments. Trump was placing Med Beds in hospitals and other facilities worldwide. Thus, these health providers would have the tools to promote health and no longer could tear down our bodies through dependence on their expensive drugs, surgeries and other over priced medical procedures. With Trump's Thursday Executive Order that released free Med Bed treatments to the public, Big Pharma was finally facing accountability through massive legal consequences for their crimes. For centuries they had forced on the population, dependency on drugs that not only didn't heal the body, but actually contributed to ill health. Peace and Freedoms wouldn't come easy. Mr. Pool Q on Telegram said that the next 48 hours were critical. The next ten days were historic. The next 30 days would change civilization.   Within the next 24 hours, seven trumpets were set to sound over every phone, tablet, TV, radio and communication device on Earth to introduce seven Emergency Broadcast System (EBS) messages in 22 languages that explained what's going on. And, what was actually going on? Liberty and Peace were winning. The Great Awakening was here. One of the Liberties that Trump had already given People of the World (that they were yet to know about) was that of good health through Med Beds. Trump's Military Alliance was opening up Med Bed Centers around the World to give free regenerative treatments that healed the body without drugs. On Fri. 17 July 2026 a nurse from Walter Reed Military Hospital leaked her testimony on Med Beds. She had worked in Walter Reed's Med Bed Wing for seven years: She contacted us through an encrypted channel 48 hours ago. Her identity has been verified by three independent sources. She worked at Walter Reed National Military Medical Center from 2017 to 2024 — in a section that does not appear on any public floor plan. She calls it “Sub-Level 3.” Situation Updates: Fri. 17 July 2026 Situation Update: Byington Bombshell Report: America Now Sovereign Under Constitutional Law – Trump Signs EO Releasing Free Regenerative Med Beds to Public | Politics | Before It's News Fri. 17 July 2026: BREAKING FREE: Mind Control, S-----c Ritual A---e, and Jenny Hill's Extraordinary Journey in Twenty Two Faces [JUDY BYINGTON] – amg-news.com – American Media Group Thurs. 16 July 2026 Situation Update (video): WTPN SITUATION UPDATE FEATURING RESTORED REPUBLIC & MORE   A Quantum Space Q Phone will be provided free of charge to all people on Earth.

Fri. 17 July 2025, Edward Snowden: Two years ago today, President Trump was shot on stage in Butler Pennsylvania. Trump was putting his life on the line by being President.

Fri. 17 July 2026 MarkZ: Indian Nations are 90% done exchanging. Bond Groups receive their balance this weekend. Tier4a should be finishing exchanging this next week – then Tier4b (us, the Internet Group). Fri. 17 July 2026 Med Bed Activation on Telegram: On Mon. 20 July 2026 Free QFS app appointments begin. Redemptions provide endless resources for Med Bed rollout everywhere. Full public Med Bed access expands. Those with Humanitarian projects receive priority. Thurs. 16 July 2026  Bruce, The Big Call The Big Call Universe (ibize.com)  667-770-1866 A source said Tier4b (us, the Internet Group) could be notified over the weekend and start exchanges Mon. 20 July. Judy Note: No one knows the exact date for notification of appointments for Tier4b (us, the Internet Group) to exchange foreign currencies, but deadlines shown in the above Timing indicate it to be very soon. We have been told that Wells Fargo, which is controlled by the Chinese Elders – (the ones who own the gold behind the Global Currency Reset) – will send out emails to currency and bond holders worldwide telling them how to set redemption & exchange appointments. It is advised to exchange/redeem your foreign currency at an official Redemption Center (RC) rather than a bank. You can only redeem Zim at a RC, the Dinar Contract Rate can only be given at a RC and banks will offer you lower exchange rates than what you can obtain at a RC. You can only set up your new wallet (bank account) at a RC. It was my understanding that most banks were under control of the Cabal and would soon play a different roll in the Global Financial System.   Mass Arrests: On Mon. 7 July 2026 Operation Military Cleanse was activated:  847 Pentagon officials detained  234 Generals and high-ranking officers arrested  678 Military operatives removed from active duty  4,000 Troops deployed across 19 states for domestic operations  50 States coordinated simultaneously Charged With:  Treason against the United States  Coordination with foreign adversaries  Conspiracy to overthrow the government  Crimes against Humanity  Violation of Military Code of Justice What We Think We Know as of Sat. 18 July 2026:   Med Beds Thurs. 16 July 2026 BREAKING: TRUMP JUST SIGNED EXECUTIVE ORDER 2026-1947. MEDBED TECHNOLOGY DECLASSIFIED FOR CIVILIAN USE. THE PHARMACEUTICAL INDUSTRY HAS 90 DAYS. …Tier4b ISO 20022 on Telegram July 15, 2026. 04:00 AM EST. This was signed in silence. No press conference. No cameras. No media briefing. Executive Order 2026-1947: “Declassification and Civilian Deployment of Electromagnetic Regeneration Technology.” THE ORDER STATES:  All frequency-based healing technology currently classified under Department of Defense medical programs is hereby declassified for civilian research and deployment.  The FDA is prohibited from blocking, delaying, or interfering with the distribution of electromagnetic regeneration devices to the American public.  Pharmaceutical companies have 90 days to disclose all suppressed clinical trials involving frequency-based treatments — or face criminal prosecution under 18 U.S.C. § 1001.  Military medical facilities currently operating regeneration technology will begin civilian intake within 120 days. THE PANIC: Pfizer stock dropped 14% in pre-market trading. Johnson & Johnson emergency board meeting called at 5:00 AM. Moderna CEO sold $47 million in personal shares before market open. They KNEW this was coming. They tried to sell before the collapse. WHY NOW?: Trump's medical advisors presented him with a 3,400-page classified report documenting 61 years of suppressed frequency healing research. The report contained: — 847 successful clinical trials hidden from the public — 12,000+ patients fully cured of terminal conditions using electromagnetic frequency — Cost analysis showing MedBed treatment at $0.003 per session vs. $150,000 average cancer treatment Trump read the cost analysis. Then he signed the order. THE TIMELINE:  Day 1-30: Full declassification of all research documents  Day 31-60: FDA forced to approve frequency-based devices  Day 61-90: Pharmaceutical disclosure deadline (criminal penalties)  Day 91-120: First civilian MedBed centers open in 12 states THE DEEP STATE RESPONSE: They are already trying to k--l this. Three major media outlets received calls from pharmaceutical lobbyists at 5:30 AM demanding they do NOT report on EO 2026-1947. CNN has been silent. NBC has been silent. ABC has been silent. Their silence IS the confirmation. If this order was fake, they would be laughing at it on every channel. Instead — total blackout. Total silence. Total panic. THE TRUTH: The pharmaceutical industry just received its death sentence. 90 days. That's all they have left. After that, the technology that cures cancer in 42 minutes will be available to every American citizen. They had 61 years of profit. 61 years of human suffering. 61 years of suppression. It ends now. Fri. 17 July 2026 Fox News: MAJOR PUSH ON CAPITOL HILL: WAR ON FRAUD RAMPING UP, BILLIONS STOLEN FROM TAXPAYERS Social media investigator Nick Shirley testified today exposing rampant fraud — from Somali day care scandals in Minnesota to massive Medicaid scams in NYC with Dr. Oz. DOJ milestone: Trade Fraud Task Force hit over $1 BILLION in recoveries in under a year. Dr. Oz & others highlighting adult day care mills, fake billing, durable medical equipment scams (twice as many in parts of Florida as McDonald's), and personal care services as NYC's top “job.” This isn't red or blue, it's right vs. wrong. Hardworking taxpayers are getting robbed. Every dollar stolen is one less for real Americans. Restored Republic via a GCR Update as of Sun. 19 July 2026 by Judy Byington, On Sat. 4 July the Constitutional Republic Restored, While US Inc. Dissolved On Thurs. 16 July the Quantum Financial System Went Live Worldwide Also on Thurs. 16 July President Trump signed Executive Order 2026-1947 – a Declaration That Med Bed Technology Had Been Released to the Public. Global Martial Law Was Not Only The Only Way, But Was On It's Way The Republic of United States of America Was Being Restored Trust The Plan Save The Children _____________________________________________________ Judy Note: The Constitutional Republic has been restored. The Global Currency Reset to gold/asset-backed currency of 209 nations has been released. Med Bed technology – giving the body the ability to heal itself – was being released. The Illuminati Cabal, who for centuries had been working towards having complete control over our society, didn't like those ideas, and was fighting back big time. Trust The Plan. “On Sat. Evening 18 July 2026 the White House in Washington DC turned all red, signifying Mass Arrests were in motion.” …Q “In the coming hours, the World as we see it will be changed forever as Michael Jackson emerges on the Emergency Broadcast System – alive and ready to speak. It's time for the whole World to know the truth.” …Emergency Broadcast System on Telegram “The US Army Special Forces raided a hidden Obama property in the Virginia countryside, where they discovered “The Lucifer Codex.” The files proved that Obama was the high priest who personally opened the main hell portal under Washington DC in 2009.” …Martial Law on Telegram Temporary Martial Law has been raised to maximum alert nationwide. The EBS is preparing to release the first decoded pages within hours.   Prepare for ten days of communication darkness. We are in a silent war – the final battle of the planet. In the next couple of weeks the World will change and tremble. One of the most dramatic changes: Free Med Bed Treatments will soon be available to the general public across the Globe. The non invasive treatments, which generally take under an hour, use certain wave lengths to help the body heal itself. Since 2019 the American Medical Association has been actively fighting against allowing the public to have the healing treatments, saying they will create a financial crisis to the healthcare industry and force a complete overhaul of our medical, health insurance and pharmaceutical companies. In 2019 the American Medical Association (WHO) sent an internal email to every licensed physician in America – 847,000 doctors: The email acknowledged the positive effects of Electromagnetic therapy (Med Beds), but threatened the doctors with loss of license and criminal prosecution if they used it because of the financial affects it would have on the medical, insurance and pharmaceutical industries. The Email: “Updated Clinical Guidelines: Non-Pharmaceutical Electromagnetic Interventions — Position Statement: The AMA acknowledges that peer-reviewed evidence supports the biological efficacy of PEMF therapy in tissue regeneration, pain management, and immune modulation. However, widespread adoption would destabilize existing treatment revenue models and insurance reimbursement structures. Any physician who recommends, prescribes, endorses, or refers patients to electromagnetic frequency-based therapy will face immediate license revocation, removal from insurance networks, and potential criminal liability under state medical practice statutes.” The bottom line was that your doctor knew that frequency heals, that the MedBed principle was scientifically valid, that most of what he prescribed managed symptoms, not cured disease. He cannot tell you because his license would be revoked and he would face criminal liability by the American Medical Association. On Thurs. 16 July 2026 at 03:17 am Geneva time the World Health Organization deleted over 14,000 pages from their database – all related to the documented clinical effectiveness of electromagnetic frequency therapy on human disease (Med Beds). The deletion happened 14 hours after President Trump signed Executive Order 2026-1947 – a declaration that Med Bed Technology was now released to the public.The WHO knows that once MedBed technology enters civilian deployment, every document they ever buried becomes evidence of a crime against humanity. On a brighter side: “A senior Treasury Department official claims that the Quantum Financial System was live and the Global Currency Reset was happening now. Everything you know about money is about to change forever.” …Tier4b ISO20022 on Telegram The senior US Treasury official contacted us 48 hours ago through a secure channel. Her identity verified by six independent financial intelligence sources. She worked in Treasury's Special Financial Operations Division 2008-2026. She calls it “The Awakening.” Her words. Unedited: “July 4, 2026. U.S. Corporation dissolved. Constitutional Republic restored.” “July 16, QFS went live globally. Every major bank connected. Old system dead.” “GCR happening now. Every currency revalued. Gold-backed. Transparent.” “NESARA/GESARA implemented across 209 countries. Debt jubilee. End of Fed.” “Saint Germain Trust ($890 trillion) is being activated. Going to the people.” “I have the activation codes. I have the account numbers. I have the proof that this is happening right now. In 18 years, I witnessed:”  The QFS development from concept to deployment  209 countries signing onto NESARA/GESARA  The Saint Germain Trust verification ($890 trillion)  The U.S. Corporation dissolution documents  The Constitutional Republic restoration protocols “Trillions stolen by Fed. People enslaved by debt. We had the solution. I couldn't sleep. For 18 years.” WHY SHE'S TALKING NOW: “Activation complete. If I speak, people understand what's happening. I have 18 years of documentation. QFS architecture. Proof old system finished.” “The banks will announce the revaluation. The media will call it a crisis. It's not a crisis. It's liberation. I am ready to testify. Under oath. Before Congress. Before the world.” HER FINAL MESSAGE: “To every person who lost their home to the Federal Reserve: Your debt is forgiven. Your home is yours. The jubilee is here.” “To every person who worked their entire life for money that's about to be worthless: You will be compensated. The Saint Germain Trust is for you.” “To the Federal Reserve leadership: Your time is finished. The QFS is live. You cannot stop it anymore.”   OPERATION FINANCIAL FREEDOM ✓ ACTIVATED PHASE 1: QFS Activation ✓ LIVE (July 16) PHASE 2: Currency Revaluation ⟳ JULY 25 – AUGUST 8 PHASE 3: Wealth Distribution ⟳ AUGUST 15 – SEPTEMBER 30 PHASE 4: New Economy ⟳ OCTOBER 1 The Quantum Financial System is live.

Large scale arrest Since 2007 the US Military has been using Red Light Therapy (Med Beds) to extend the operational lifespan of it's soldiers. There were discovered to be thousands of pages of foreign IP address sending and receiving data to election precincts and servers outside the United States during the 2020 Election. CISA, DHS, the FBI, and the CIA knew all about it because they were in on it. The Deep State rot runs deep, but not for much longer. The Mar-a-Lago unredacted search warrant CONFIRMS that the Biden DOJ, FBI, and GSA engineered and manufactured the plot to frame Donald J. Trump! On Thurs. 16 July 2026 the U.S. military went deep into Iran and expanded operations. Bridges and supply routes were no more. Airports went up in smoke. Infrastructure vaporized. The IRGC was being wiped out. The goal was to destroy Iran's infrastructure and its military capability would collapse. When its military broke, its regime would fall. The old world of Iranian tyranny was dead. The New World of American dominion begins. The oil runs freely. The cash was rolling in. Peace comes. …Nesara Gesara QFS on Telegram. The CIA knew about cures for cancer 50 years ago. …Nesara Gesara on Telegram Nick Shirley just went on national television and dropped this revelation: The Chinese and Korean Mafia is LOOTING MEDICAID and running a kickback scheme in NYC A nurse from one of America's hardest-hit C---D hospitals in NYC described gross medical mismanagement where clueless healthcare workers were straight-up k-----g patients. Survival wasn't about medicine — it was about whether your caregiver actually knew what they were doing. Medicare paid hospitals MORE when patients died. The system incentivized death over life.   Possible Timing: “On Sat. 18 July 2026 at 3:17 AM EST the RV/GCR exploded – Iraq, Vietnam, Zimbabwe, all revalued sky-high while the Cabal's Federal Reserve Note collapses in real time.” …Dr. Jim Willie Patriot Truth Archive on Telegram Global Currency Reset: Sat. 18 July 2026 The dollar is dead, the reset is here, and the traitors are about to lose everything. …Patriot Truth Archive on Telegram Dr. Jim Willie just went nuclear: the United States Corporation is bankrupt, the fiat dollar has been deliberately crashed by white hats, and the quantum financial system flipped live overnight. The RV/GCR exploded at 3:17 AM EST today Sat. 18 July 2026 – Iraq, Vietnam, Zimbabwe, all revalued sky-high while the cabal's Federal Reserve Note collapses in real time. Willie laid it out raw: The BRICS nations, led by Trump's secret alliance with Putin and Xi, just pulled the trigger. Over 209 countries locked into gold-backed currencies, the SWIFT system is offline forever, and the Rothschild central banks are being seized as we speak. NESARA/GESARA fully activated – all bank debt, mortgages, credit cards, student loans WIPED OUT starting tomorrow morning. Redemption centers on full lockdown, military guarding Tier 4B notifications going out within hours. The real bombshell? GITMO executions began at dawn – top bankers, Fed chairs, and deep state money launderers hanged for treason after the gold standard was restored. Med Beds rolling out next week, suppressed energy tech released, and the biggest wealth transfer in human history is hitting patriot accounts first. Trillions in restitution flowing to those who held the line and printed fake money. America is being shaken awake – power outages are tactical, internet blackouts cover the arrests, and the EBS is primed for the 10 Days of Darkness starting any moment. The storm isn't coming – it's here. The fake Biden corpse regime ends this week, Trump sworn in on the real Constitution, and the Republic rises from the ashes of their burned-out corporation. Anons, this is the moment we bled for. The dollar dies so we can live free. The evil empire of debt slavery is over. They stole our wealth for 150 years – now we take it all back with interest. The Hat is dropping truth like napalm: the shock is just beginning, and the cabal is screaming as their money turns to dust. Get ready for the greatest week in history. Notifications any second. Redemption appointments flood in. The Golden Age starts NOW. The shaking isn't destruction – it's liberation. Nothing can stop what's coming. Patriots are about to be richer than kings while the wicked burn. NCSWIC. Judy Note: No one knows the exact date for notification of appointments for Tier4b (us, the Internet Group) to exchange foreign currencies, but deadlines shown in the above Timing indicate it to be very soon. We have been told that Wells Fargo, which is controlled by the Chinese Elders – (the ones who own the gold behind the Global Currency Reset) – will send out emails to currency and bond holders worldwide telling them how to set redemption & exchange appointments. It is advised to exchange/redeem your foreign currency at an official Redemption Center (RC) rather than a bank. You can only redeem Zim at a RC, the Dinar Contract Rate can only be given at a RC and banks will offer you lower exchange rates than what you can obtain at a RC. You can only set up your new wallet (bank account) at a RC. It was my understanding that most banks were under control of the Cabal and would soon play a different roll in the Global Financial System. What We Think We Know as of Sun. 19 July 2026: Sat. 18 July 2026 Fox News: Nick Shirley just went on national television and dropped this revelation: The Chinese and Korean Mafia is LOOTING MEDICAID and running a kickback scheme in NYC “In Queens, adult day cares [have] pharmacies set up, it's this big racket where they BILL all these people with medical beneficiary numbers from seniors in the adult day cares. They make so much money from Medicaid, THEY GIVE KICKBACKS to the seniors.” “So you have these Korean and Chinese mafias, quite literally, looting the government from Medicaid, and then giving the kickbacks to the seniors!”   INGRAHAM: “So wait, the old people get the money themselves?” SHIRLEY: “Well, they make so much money, these pharmacies and these little day cares, that they then have a referral program set up for these seniors. So it's like bringing a friend will give you a hundred bucks.” Med Beds Sat. 18 July 2026 YOUR DOCTOR KNOWS. HE WAS TOLD TO STAY QUIET. HERE'S THE EMAIL THAT PROVES IT. …Tier4b ISO20022 In 2019, an internal email was sent to every licensed physician in the American Medical Association network. 847,000 doctors received it. The subject line read: “Updated Clinical Guidelines: Non-Pharmaceutical Electromagnetic Interventions — Position Statement” The email contained one directive: “Any physician who recommends, prescribes, endorses, or refers patients to electromagnetic frequency-based therapy will face immediate license revocation, removal from insurance networks, and potential criminal liability under state medical practice statutes.” Your doctor read that email. And then he looked you in the eye and said: “There's nothing else we can do.” THE EMAIL WAS NOT ABOUT SAFETY. Buried in paragraph 14 — the paragraph no one reads — was this sentence: “The AMA acknowledges that peer-reviewed evidence supports the biological efficacy of PEMF therapy in tissue regeneration, pain management, and immune modulation. However, widespread adoption would destabilize existing treatment revenue models and insurance reimbursement structures.” Read that again. Slowly. They ACKNOWLEDGED it works. Then they BANNED doctors from using it. Not because it's dangerous. Because it's too effective. WHAT YOUR DOCTOR ACTUALLY KNOWS: Every physician trained after 2005 was taught — in medical school — that:  Cells respond to electromagnetic stimulation (this is in every biophysics textbook)  PEMF accelerates bone healing (FDA approved since 1979 for fractures)  Transcranial magnetic stimulation treats depression (FDA approved 2008)  Electrical stimulation regenerates nerve tissue (published in Nature, 2019) They ALREADY know frequency heals. They use it in narrow, controlled applications where pharmaceutical profits aren't threatened. But the moment you ask: “If magnets can heal my bones, can they heal my cancer?” Your doctor goes silent. Changes the subject. Writes another prescription. Because he read the email. And he chose his license over your life.   THE DOCTORS WHO REFUSED TO STAY QUIET: Dr. Jerry Tennant — Published “Healing is Voltage.” Proved that every disease correlates with a measurable voltage drop in affected tissue. Restore the voltage, cure the disease. His medical license was “reviewed” three times. Dr. Dietrich Klinghardt — Documented frequency therapy curing Lyme disease in 85% of patients. Lost hospital privileges at two institutions. Dr. Thomas Lodi — Achieved 90%+ cancer remission using integrative frequency protocols. Forced to relocate his practice to Mexico. Dr. Lee Merritt — Spoke publicly about suppressed electromagnetic healing. Removed from every medical board she served on. They didn't lose their careers because they were wrong. They lost their careers because they were RIGHT — and they refused to be silent. THE MATH OF SILENCE: Average doctor salary: $350,000/year Average medical school debt: $241,000 Years to pay off debt: 13 years Cost of losing license: Everything They designed a system where speaking the truth costs a doctor their entire life's investment. 13 years of training. $241,000 in debt. Their home. Their family's security. The AMA didn't just threaten doctors. They built a financial prison that makes silence the only rational choice. Your doctor is not evil. He is trapped. But YOU are not trapped. You don't have a license to lose. You don't have $241,000 in debt holding you hostage. You have nothing to lose by knowing the truth. THE TRUTH: Your doctor knows that frequency heals, that the MedBed principle is scientifically valid, that most of what he prescribes manages symptoms, not cures disease. He cannot tell you. The email made sure of that. 847,000 doctors received one email. 847,000 doctors chose silence. The email has been leaked. The silence is over. Your doctor knew. Now you know too. On Thurs. 16 July 2026 at 03:17 am Geneva time the World Health Organization deleted over 14,000 pages from their database – all related to frequency healing. …EBS activated with Trump on Telegram A digital forensics team monitoring the World Health Organization's public research database flagged a mass deletion event. 14,247 pages of archived research — removed in a single batch operation. Every deleted file had one thing in common: They documented the clinical effectiveness of electromagnetic frequency therapy on human disease. THE DELETED FILES INCLUDED:  1,847 peer-reviewed studies on PEMF (Pulsed Electromagnetic Field) therapy showing 70-94% efficacy in tissue regeneration  3,200 pages of WHO internal memos from 1998-2015 discussing “the frequency problem” — their own term for the threat that non-pharmaceutical healing posed to global health economics  6,400 pages of clinical trial data from 11 countries showing frequency-based cancer remission rates between 67-89%  2,800 pages of correspondence between WHO directors and pharmaceutical executives discussing “containment strategies” for frequency healing research HOW WE KNOW: The Wayback Machine captured snapshots of 4,100 of these pages before deletion. Digital forensics teams archived another 7,300 through automated scraping protocols that were triggered by the mass deletion event. They deleted 14,247 pages. We recovered 11,400. They failed. WHAT THE MEMOS REVEAL: A 2003 internal WHO memo — now recovered — contains this exact sentence: “If electromagnetic frequency therapy achieves mainstream clinical adoption, the global pharmaceutical revenue model becomes unsustainable within 18-24 months. Containment is not optional. It is existential.” Signed by three WHO department heads. Names redacted in the original. Digital forensics has identified two of the three. A 2011 memo is more direct: “Recommend classification of all PEMF efficacy data as ‘inconclusive' regardless of outcome metrics. Peer review panels must be briefed accordingly.” They didn't suppress the research because it didn't work. They suppressed it because it worked TOO WELL. WHY NOW: The deletion happened 14 hours after Executive Order 2026-1947 was signed – Trump's declaration that Med Bed Technology was released to the public. This is not coincidence. This is panic. The WHO knows that once MedBed technology enters civilian deployment, every document they ever buried becomes evidence of a crime against humanity. They are destroying evidence. In real time. Right now. But the internet never forgets. And neither do we. THE NUMBERS THEY TRIED TO ERASE: — Breast cancer: 78% complete remission using 10.5 Hz PEMF (WHO Study WH-2007-4491, now deleted) — Type 2 diabetes: 64% reversal using 7.83 Hz exposure, 30 min/day for 90 days (WHO Study WH-2012-8823, now deleted) — Alzheimer's: 41% cognitive restoration using Gamma frequency 40 Hz stimulation (WHO Study WH-2014-1157, now deleted) — Chronic pain: 91% elimination using Alpha frequency 10 Hz (WHO Study WH-2009-3340, now deleted) These are not alternative medicine claims. These are the WHO's OWN studies. Conducted with their own funding. Showing their own results. And they just tried to delete them from existence. THE QUESTION: If frequency healing doesn't work — why delete 14,000 pages at 3AM? If MedBeds are “conspiracy” — why panic after a presidential executive order? If electromagnetic therapy is “pseudoscience” — why did the WHO spend 17 years studying it and then HIDE the results? Their actions are the confession. The deletion IS the proof. They spent 20 years hiding the cure in their own database. Then they tried to burn the database. The fire came too late. We already have the files. Share this. The evidence is secured. The deletion failed. Sat. 18 July 2026 BREAKING: JAPAN JUST BECAME THE FIRST COUNTRY TO OFFICIALLY APPROVE MEDBED TECHNOLOGY FOR PUBLIC HOSPITALS. THE MEDIA BLACKOUT IS TOTAL. …Tier4b ISO20022 on Telegram July 17, 2026. Tokyo, Japan. The Japanese Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare just issued Directive MHLW-2026-7714: “Authorization of Electromagnetic Frequency Regeneration Devices for Clinical Deployment in National Healthcare Facilities.” This is not a trial. This is not a study. This is FULL APPROVAL. Starting September 1, 2026, electromagnetic frequency regeneration chambers will be installed in 340 national hospitals across Japan.   [Incomplete text due to character limit.

Welcome to What Matters Now, a weekly podcast exploring key issues currently shaping Israel and the Jewish World, with host Amanda Borschel-Dan speaking with The Times of Israel's senior analyst Haviv Rettig Gur. With the sudden death of US Sen. Lindsey Graham this week, Rettig Gur is asked to expound on the loss of this staunchly pro-Israel politician who was able to rally both sides of the aisle. We then turn to the recent visits of two Democratic wannabe presidential candidates -- Rahm Emanuel, most recently the US ambassador to Japan, and US Rep. Ro Khanna. We hear how both politicians came with distinct messages and very different goals. And finally, as America turns 250, we learn about Anglo Jewry's inability to foresee the new phenomenon of antisemitism hitting the US's teeming shores. Does the vilification of Israel change their hypothetical plans for escape? And so this week, we ask Haviv Rettig Gur what matters now. What Matters Now podcasts are available for download on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, YouTube or wherever you get your podcasts.

SCHEDULE JOHN BATCHELOR SHOW, 7-15-261904 PERSIAMichael Bernstam discusses China's "colonial" economic relationship with Russia, demanding natural gas at heavily subsidized domestic rates. Capitalizing on Russian weakness, Beijing insists Russia fund its own pipelines while China signals a shift toward supporting Ukrainian territorial integrity, effectively throwing Putin "under the bus" to pressure the West. (1)Michael Bernstam explores Houthi threats to the Bab-el-Mandeb strait, which could drive oil prices over $100 per barrel by choking global shipping. Simultaneously, Ukrainian drone strikes have crippled Russian refining capacity and shipping in the Black Sea, leading to energy rationing, electricity shortages, and potential food crises in Crimea. (2)Bob Zimmerman provides updates on SpaceX's Starship test flight and the FAA's rapid approval process. He details the deployment of version three Starlink satellites, rumors of a massive new Louisiana spaceport, and criticizes a Texaspolitician's "irrational" investigation into Elon Musk's government grants for rural internet access. (3)Bob Zimmerman explains why AI is currently inadequate for counting lunar craters, failing to meet human accuracy standards. He also highlights the discovery of a potential black hole in Omega Centauri, discusses the desolate nature of Mars's Jezero Crater, and notes the mysterious, unexplained "spokes" appearing in Saturn's rings. (4)Steve Yates analyzes the Taiwan People's Party's (TPP) historic visit to mainland China. Originally a pro-identity youth movement, the TPP is now seeking political power through a coalition with the pro-China KMT. This shift complicates Taiwan's political landscape, as the younger demographic overwhelmingly identifies as Taiwanese, not Chinese. (5)Cleo Paskal exposes Chinese cognitive warfare in the Solomon Islands, where identical pro-Beijing propaganda appeared in separate newspapers. She details China's aggressive pressure on Palau, utilizing economic threats, triad activity, and cyberattacks to force the nation to de-recognize Taiwan before an upcoming regional forum in late August. (6)Charles Burton discusses the strained Canada-US relations regarding the Gordie Howe Bridge. Disagreements over ownership and revenue sharing led Donald Trump to claim a "victory" by coercing Canadian concessions. This dispute has fueled hostility in Canada, leading to a boycott of US travel and alcohol imports in Ontario. (7)Charles Burton criticizes the lack of transparency regarding Chinese infiltration in the Canadian government. He argues that Prime Minister Carney's administration prioritizes business interests over national sovereignty, ignoring warnings about espionage and transnational repression while pursuing empty promises of doubled trade from Beijing to counter US tariffs. (8)Evan Ellis reports on the collapse of Cuba's electric grid, marking the third major blackout in nine days. While the island devolves into ruin, the Trump administration weighs military action against potential negotiations with the Castrofamily, as China and Russia provide only minimal, symbolic economic and political support. (9)Evan Ellis details the humanitarian crisis in Venezuela following twin earthquakes. While US Southern Commandprovides tactical aid, the corrupt and inefficient Rodriguez government is unable to respond to massive destruction, including thousands of deaths and ruined infrastructure. The situation highlights the inadequacy of the current Venezuelan regime. (10)Evan Ellis examines political instability in Bolivia involving Evo Morales and the upcoming inauguration of Keiko Fujimori in Peru. He also notes unresolved tensions over the Falkland Islands as Argentina faces Britain in the World Cup, emphasizing Javier Milei's strategic shift toward collaboration with the United States. (11)Evan Ellis analyzes judicial cruelty in Brazil, where Flavio Bolsonaro is barred from visiting his ill father. In El Salvador, President Bukele is seeking an unconstitutional third term. Despite his high approval ratings and security successes, the move raises alarms about the global trend of abandoning democratic constraints. (12)Thaddeus McCotter reflects on the death of Senator Lindsey Graham and the rising global pattern of political violence, including the murder of a UK MP. He also addresses credible Iranian threats to assassinate the US President, suggesting that decapitation strikes against heads of state have become routine. (13)Thaddeus McCotter connects global energy prices to military strategy, noting how Ukrainian drone strikes on Russianrefineries impact domestic affordability. He warns that the Republican party must clarify objectives in Iran and Ukraineto address MAGA base concerns regarding "forever wars" before the upcoming midterm elections. (14)Judy Dempsey discusses the US naval blockade of Iran and European concerns over energy security. She argues that European leaders find Trump's policies unpredictable and emphasizes that the future must be built on transparency, democracy, and accountability to counter the rise of authoritarian models like communist China. (15)Judy Dempsey highlights increasing threats against European politicians, particularly in Germany from the far-right AfD. Despite the current prominence of "strong men," she maintains that authoritarian systems are unsustainable because the human spirit fundamentally requires freedom, which dictatorships cannot provide or permit in the long term.

Returning guest David Murrin begins by considering US President Donald Trump's gambits in the Middle East as he seeks to prevail over Iran. In a discussion with host Iain Ballantyne - recorded before Iran and the USA reverted to a state of war (in July) - David reflected on the Trump pattern of seeking peace deals followed by more bombing.These are the US President's ‘peace bombs,' as David describes them, with the Iran War and struggle for the Strait of Hormuz turning out like ‘Suez on steroids.'The consequences of President Trump's approach to allies, his treatment of foes and overall strategy are also covered, before turning to Europe's laziness in defence and the military spending laggard that is the United Kingdom.David also explains what he learned about modern warfare during a recent visit to Ukraine and how Kyiv's forces have chosen a lateral response to the Russian aggressors rather than linear. According to David a future threat for Europeans to be concerned about will be China's navy in the High North and he cautions that - whatever the threat is in the great waters of the Atlantic and Arctic - drones are not the entire solution.In the meantime, so David contends, Britain and other NATO nations are already at war with Russia but only now are they waking up to that fact. Turning to Royal Navy, David weighs up the push for the ‘hybrid navy' and ‘evolution' versus ‘revolution' at a difficult time in which the UK appears to have lost touch with its naval identity. He considers the British fleet has been destroyed by politicians since the late 1990s, and that they have let down both the nation and NATO. During this lively episode David also gives his perspective on what China has learned from the Iran War and more.• The August 2026 edition of Warships IFR is published on 17.7.26 in the UK and also deployed globally.

US Correspondent Todd Zwillich spoke to Lisa Owen about Donald Trump has announcing another naval blockade on the Strait of Hormuz. The US President wants to put a 20 percent fee on all cargo passing through the strait as "reimbursement" for protection, a move with Iranian authorities have mocked.

The ceasefire is "over" according to the US President as tensions with Iran boil over once again. The US Military has carried out fresh strikes against Southern Iranian targets along the Strait of Hormuz. It says the latest action is in response to the a spate of Iranian attacks against tankers in the strait. US correspondent Todd Zwillich spoke to Lisa Owen.

It's Tuesday, July 7th, 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 Kevin Swanson, Timothy Reed, and Adam McManus Chinese pastor Ezra Jin released from prison Praise God! Chinese House Church Pastor Ezra Jin has been released from a communist prison!   This comes after US President Donald Trump brought up his case with the Chinese president last month. China Aid interprets the action as a  “goodwill gesture coinciding with America's Independence Day.” Bob Fu of China Aid noted that “While we celebrate Pastor Jin's freedom, our hearts remain with the countless jailed pastors and coworkers from Zion Church as well as priests, bishops, and house church Christians. . . who remain unjustly imprisoned by the Chinese Communist Party.”   Pastor Jin's daughter, Grace Jin Drexel, has spoken out on national media and lobbied Congress and the President for the release of her father since he was arrested last October.  Iran sentenced five people to death Iranian courts have sentenced five more people to death because they participated in alleged “anti-government” activities in recent protests. This adds to the 1,639 persons executed in 2025, according to Iran International.  Iranian officials call for Trump's assassination Calls for President Trump's assassination from Iranian government officials and the crowd of hundreds of thousands on the streets of Tehran were plentiful, according to the New York Post. One banner promised $100 million for the person who kills the US President, according to reports from Iran International.   Cuba's nationwide blackout Another communist country, Cuba, is in serious economic and social disintegration. The country experienced a nationwide blackout over the weekend — affecting transportation, crucial medical care, and government operations, reports FoxNews. That's the third blackout in six months. Russian missiles and drones killed 21 Ukrainian citizens Russian missiles and drones killed 21 Ukrainian citizens in a blitz attack on Kiev over the weekend. Another 100-plus people were injured in the attacks, that came at the eve of a NATO summit, reports the BBC. President Donald Trump reports to have had a lengthy “constructive” conversation with Russian President Vladimir Putin on Saturday.  LEGO pushes sexual perversion The Denmark-owned LEGO company is openly pushing homosexual Pride parades, homosexual faux marriage, and other homosexualized themes for children. The LEGO company's pride month celebration included a contest intended to groom children in homosexual ideologies. In the words of their website, LEGO seeks to “celebrate everyone you love.” In Matthew 18:6, Jesus said, “But whoever causes one of these little ones who believe in Me to sin, it would be better for him if a millstone were hung around his neck, and he were drowned in the depth of the sea.” Evangelical Christian edges out RINO in Colorado's governor race An evangelical Christian, Victor Marx, has edged out the middle-of-the-road Republican candidate in Colorado's gubernatorial race, reports Colorado Newsline. After 97% of the primary vote count has come in, Marx maintains a 1% lead. A recount may still be in the works. Trump-endorsed candidates and conservative candidates have won so far in Texas, Louisiana, Indiana, and Georgia. Abortion is up despite Roe v. Wade's demise Despite the U.S. Supreme Court's overturn of Roe v. Wade in 2022, abortions continue to rise in the United States.  The most recent numbers indicated 1.13 million abortions nationwide last year. That's up from 862,000 in 2017, reports The Christian Post. While a number of Republican-leaning states have restricted abortion, many Democrat-leaning states have opened up access to abortions.  Additionally, the Abortion Kill Pill is accessible in all states, and remains the largest driver in the uptick of abortion numbers. Psalm 94:21 says, “They gather together against the life of the righteous, and condemn innocent blood.” Dept. of Justice cracks down on medical fraud The Department of Justice is cracking down on medical fraud. More than 450 defendants were named in the latest fraud bust, with the fraud totaling more than $6.5 billion!  Robert F. Kennedy Jr., head of the Department of Health and Human Services, explained the implications of the far-reaching medical fraud bust. KENNEDY: “Our objective is straightforward: to stop the fraud before it happens. “The people charged today should understand that we will continue expanding these capabilities, strengthening and enforcement, and pursuing every credible allegation of fraud. If you exploit patients for profit, if you steal Medicaid or Medicare dollars, if you treat taxpayer dollars as your personal bank account, we will investigate you. “We will build the case, and we will bring you to justice. We will find fraud, we will stop it, we will recover taxpayer dollars whenever the law permits, and we will restore integrity to the programs that millions of Americans rely on for their care.” 7 million illegals under Biden drove up housing costs A new report out of the Federal Reserve Bank of Dallas detailed the massive impact illegal immigration has had on housing prices. Per the report, around seven million illegal immigrants entered the United States during the Biden presidency, which contributed greatly to soaring housing prices. The report further read, “A back-of-the-envelope calculation suggests that [unauthorized immigrant worker flows] can explain about 30% of the total growth in house prices and 20% of total growth in rents over the boom period for the average local market.” And Lora Ries of the Heritage Foundation asserted, “We have at least 20 million deportable aliens in the U.S. Deporting millions of them will free up the housing supply, bring down housing costs, and allow young Americans to buy homes and start families.” But are there enough workers in America to do the work?  Fewer and fewer able-bodied Americans are willing to work.  The U.S. Labor Participation rate has dipped to 61.5% — down from 67% in the early 2000s. Unemployment is running at 4.2% — slightly higher than unemployment rates prior to the Covid pandemic in 2019. Worldview listeners weigh in from Canada, Georgia and Illinois Keith Lozon in Windsor, Ontario Canada wrote me at Adam@TheWorldview.com. He said, “I listen to The Worldview in 5 Minutes every day from Monday through Friday along with the ‘Morning Wire' and Albert Mohler's ‘The Briefing.' That's how I start my day.” Amy Zdunowski in Waverly Hall, Georgia wrote, “I listen to The Worldview in the mornings as I get ready for the day. I just started listening this year. I enjoy hearing a recap of the news, especially stories about Christians around the world that you don't hear about on other platforms.” And Pat Link in Park Ridge, Illinois wrote, “I start my day with a Daily Devotion, then read The Worldview and pray and praise to God for the news stories.  Then, I read my Bible and understand more and more the guide book to my Heavenly home.” 15 Worldview listeners gave $4,249 over the weekend and on Monday And finally, over the weekend and on Monday, 15 Worldview listeners stepped up to the plate and invested their treasure to fund the six-member team behind The Worldview for another 365 days. Our thanks to Sara in Lawndale, Nebraska who gave $5 as well as Leah in Franklin, Kentucky, Lydia in Kailua Kona, Hawaii, and Aaliyah in Kailua Kona, Hawaii – each of whom gave $25.
