    In 2021, a fatal confrontation in Morgan County, Tennessee, left one man dead and another behind bars. But as the case wound through the legal system over the next four years, it became one of the strangest files in the state's history. The reason? The defendant repeatedly and adamantly claimed in open court that he was the 16th President of the United States, Abraham Lincoln. --For early, ad free episodes and monthly exclusive bonus content, join our Patreon!

    It's Wednesday, February 18th, 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 Jonathan Clark Iranian authorities killed 19 Christians Article 18 reports Iran's security forces have killed at least 19 Christians during recent anti-government protests. The Islamic Republic's security forces brutally cracked down on demonstrators, including Christians.  Believers already face persecution for participating in activities like prayer gatherings, baptisms, and Bible distribution. In December, five Christians received prison sentences totaling 50 years for such activities. Iran is ranked 10th on the Open Doors' World Watch List of the most oppressive countries to be a Christian.  Nuclear deal between America and Iran Speaking of Iran, the country sent representatives to meet with U.S. officials in Geneva, Switzerland yesterday. The two countries agreed to “guiding principles” for a potential nuclear deal. At the same time, the U.S. is conducting a military build-up in the region. U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio has said that striking a deal with Iran is difficult because of its commitment to radical Islam.  Secretary Rubio urged Europe to embrace Christian heritage Secretary Rubio addressed the Munich Security Conference in Germany on Saturday.  He criticized Europe for embracing globalism, open borders, massive welfare states, and climate activism. Rubio said, “We in America have no interest in being polite and orderly caretakers of the West's managed decline.” Instead, he called for European countries to partner with the United States on the basis of their common heritage—Christianity. Listen. RUBIO: “America was founded 250 years ago, but the roots began here on this continent, long before the men who settled and built the nation of my birth arrived on our shores, carrying the memories and the traditions and the Christian faith of their ancestors as a sacred inheritance, an unbreakable link between the old world and the new. “We are part of one civilization, Western civilization. We are bound to one another by the deepest bonds that nations could share, forged by centuries of shared history, Christian faith, culture, heritage, language, ancestry and the sacrifices our forefathers made together for the common civilization to which we have fallen heir.” Jeremiah 6:16 says, “Stand in the ways and see, and ask for the old paths, where the good way is, and walk in it; then you will find rest for your souls.” Border Czar: We arrested 4,000 illegals & recovered 3,000 kids in MN In the United States, White House Border Czar Tom Homan announced the conclusion of Operation Metro Surge in Minnesota last week. Immigration enforcement officers are in the process of leaving the state after having made over 4,000 arrests since December. Homan noted that officers also recovered over 3,000 missing children. HOMAN: “I.C.E. is a legitimate federal law enforcement agency. We're not out scouring the streets to disappear people or deny people their civil rights or due process. In addition to taking public safety threats off the street, I.C.E., here in this state, have located 3,364 missing, unaccompanied alien children -- children the last administration lost and weren't even looking for.” Planned Parenthood closes Florida abortion mill Planned Parenthood announced Monday it will close one of its abortion mills in Florida.  The Lakeland, Florida killing center will fully close next month. This ends 50 years of the abortion giant's presence in the area.  Planned Parenthood locations have fallen from 567 in 2021 to 488 last month. However, Katherine Van Dyke with American Life League warned, “By shedding this ‘dead weight,' they're not retreating. They're regrouping to push the abortion pill regimen through virtual channels, streamlining abortion on demand.” 348th anniversary of Pilgrim's Progress And finally, this week is the 348th anniversary of the publication of John Bunyan's Pilgrim's Progress. His first volume of the book was announced on February 18, 1678. Bunyan began the work from prison. He was sentenced for holding unsanctioned religious services. Despite suffering for his faith, he produced a Christian classic that would influence the church for centuries.  The 19th century English preacher Charles Spurgeon, who read Pilgrim's Progress 100 times, said of Bunyan, “Read anything of his, and you will see that it is almost like reading the Bible itself. He had read it till his very soul was saturated with Scripture; and though his writings are charmingly full of poetry, yet he cannot give us his Pilgrim's Progress—that sweetest of all prose poems—without continually making us feel and say, ‘Why, this man is a living Bible!'” Jeremiah 15:16 says, “Your words were found, and I ate them, and Your Word was to me the joy and rejoicing of my heart; for I am called by Your name, O LORD, God of hosts.” Close And that's The Worldview on this Wednesday, February 18th, 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.  I'm Adam McManus (Adam@TheWorldview.com).

    Episode Summary: Christians make up more than half of the American population, but culture is unraveling. The future of the West will not be decided by elections, but by whether the Church rises or retreats. In this episode, we're launching Occupy Till I Come with its author Darrow Miller and argue that the Great Commission includes discipling nations at the ground level of culture. The real crisis, Darrow contends, is the sacred/secular divide that has confined faith to Sundays and surrendered public life to rival worldviews.Let's recover the biblical and historical vision that once gave the West life and order. From the image of God as the foundation of dignity,  justice, and human rights to the Reformation's role in shaping our current cultures. Then we get practical: unpacking vocation as worship, hospitality as discipleship, Scripture applied to public life, and courage under pressure. This is the hour to build. To occupy. To stand with clarity and courage. History is calling. The Church must answer.Key Endorsements:“The ideas in this book built our country, and they can restore it as well.” Dr. Josh Mulvihill“This book is Darrow Miller's magnum opus. It captures the urgency of our current civilizational moment, calling for decisive choices that lead either to renewal or decline.” Nancy PearceyWho is Disciple Nations Alliance (DNA)? Since 1997, DNA's mission has been to equip followers of Jesus around the globe with a biblical worldview, empowering them to build flourishing families, communities, and nations.

They discuss the challenges of balancing family life with hunting, the transition from traditional to compound archery, and the importance of understanding animal behavior and terrain. Ben shares valuable lessons learned from his first elk hunt and offers advice for new hunters venturing into the West. Takeaways Life is harder now with family and work commitments. Hunting is about the experience, not just the kill. Transitioning from traditional to compound archery requires dedication. Understanding animal behavior is crucial for successful hunting. Patience and strategy are key when hunting elk. Choosing the right hunting partners can impact the experience. Time in the field is essential for learning and success. You don't need to go deep into the wilderness to be successful. Learning the terrain and animal patterns increases success rates. Boots on the ground are invaluable for understanding hunting areas.

    Sri Aurobindo (1872–1950) lived two extraordinary lives in one lifetime — revolutionary nationalist and visionary yogi.   From the Alipore trial to the quietude of Pondicherry, he shifted the conversation from political freedom to inner evolution. His Integral Yoga proposed something radical: not escape from the world, but transformation of it — a movement from mind to "Supermind," from human to supramental consciousness.   The Life Divine, The Synthesis of Yoga, and Savitri remain profound explorations of human potential and spiritual evolution.   A thinker of synthesis — East and West, action and contemplation, nation and cosmos.

    West Red Lake Gold Mines – Commercial Production Milestone Achieved In January, With Ramp Up To Full Production In Mid-2026 And Further Growth Initiatives For 2027

    Shane Williams, President and CEO of West Red Lake Gold Mines (TSX.V:WRLG – OTCQB:WRLGF), joins me to highlight the major company milestone last month of declaring commercial gold production at their 100% owned Madsen Mine; located in the Red Lake Gold District of Northwestern Ontario, Canada.  Additionally, we discuss both the exploration and development upside to access new high-grade areas of Madsen, and also to incorporate the satellite Rowan deposit into the expanded growth in their production profile over the next couple of years.   The Company announced on January 12th that the Madsen Mine achieved commercial production as of January 1, 2026. The mill averaged 689 tonnes per day (“tpd”) in December 2025. This represents 86% of permitted throughput of 800 tpd and meets the Company's internal commercial production requirement of 30 consecutive days of mill throughput at 65% or greater of permitted capacity. Operational stability, the other internal requirement, is also in place at Madsen. Consistent strong mill recoveries, which averaged 94.6% in December, enabled production of 3,215 ounces of gold.   Shane outlines how diligently the operations team has worked to achieve commercial production only seven months after completion of the bulk sample.  While they are not at full production capacity here in early 2026, the plan it to continue to ramp up from this strong base, and then reach sustained permitted capacity by mid-2026.  For this first quarter (Q1) of 2026, the mill feed will come predominantly from the 4447 area, the high-grade zone in South Austin that the Company defined in 2025. Mill feed is expected to average in excess of 6 grams per tonne gold (“g/t Au) in Q1.   Next we review all the development work in their underground operations that led up to gaining the confidence mining at Madsen since the middle of last year, opening of stopes in multiple areas like Austin and South Austin in addition to McVeigh.  Then we look ahead to other areas of growth like the new 904 high-grade zone in Lower Austin, the potential to drift over to Fork for 2027, as well as the potential to supplement mill throughput with ore from the satellite Rowan deposit in the next couple years. There has been ongoing drilling at these areas over the last few months which will continue moving forward, further defining the areas for expanded resources and future production growth.     If you have any follow up questions for Shane regarding West Red Lake Gold, then please email me at Shad@kereport.com.   In full disclosure, Shad is shareholder of West Red Lake Gold Mines at the time of this recording, and may choose to buy or sell shares at any time.   Click here to follow the latest news from West Red Lake Gold Mines   Click here to watch the Corporate Video showcasing the move into commercial production at the Madsen Mine.   For more market commentary & interview summaries, subscribe to our Substacks:   The KE Report: https://kereport.substack.com/ Shad's resource market commentary: https://excelsiorprosperity.substack.com/     Investment disclaimer: This content is for informational and educational purposes only and does not constitute investment advice, an offer, or a solicitation to buy or sell any security.

    Marco Rubio's Munich Speech asks a question most leaders avoid: is the globalist era over? Professor Nick Giordano explains why this address signals the birth of a New Western Doctrine. The Rubio Doctrine on America First, sovereignty, and Western civilization marks a historic pivot from the "end of history" delusion to a new era of Civilizational Realism. Rubio's speech reframes America First as a revitalized alliance of sovereign nations, not isolationism, and rejects the post–Cold War "end of history" delusion in favor of civilizational realism. With America nearing its 250th anniversary, this episode connects Rubio's doctrine to Founding principles, industrial sovereignty, border control, and the cultural confidence required to defend a way of life. What You'll Learn The Rubio Doctrine: Why Marco Rubio's Munich Speech signals a doctrinal shift in U.S. foreign policy America First Redefined: How America First is redefined and civic cohesion ties directly to constitutional self-government  Western Civilization vs. Managed Decline: Why defending our heritage, without apology, is the prerequisite for national defense. Industrial Sovereignty: Why deindustrialization and supply chain dependency threaten national security The Presidential 1776 Award: Everything parents and students need to know about the national civics scholarship, including the February 21 deadline This episode delivers a clear, structured analysis of one of the most consequential foreign policy speeches in decades and explains what it means for America, Europe, and the future of the West.

    Explaining History (explaininghistory) (explaininghistory)

    Episode Summary:In this episode of Explaining History, Nick explores the historical processes of anti-colonial struggle in the 20th century and how they illuminate the geopolitical crises of 2026.We examine the "imperial boomerang"—how the techniques of colonial violence return to the metropole—and the shift from the age of imperial civil war (1914-1945) to the age of imperial decline. Nick discusses the recent, shocking speech by US Secretary of State Marco Rubio at the Munich Security Conference, where he urged European leaders to reclaim their "civilizational confidence" and reject the "global welfare state."From the Indian National Army to the Viet Minh, we look at how national liberation movements shattered the old empires. Nick argues that the current attempts by the US to reassert hegemony through force—in Venezuela and Nigeria—are doomed to fail against a Global South that has fundamentally changed. Is the West trying to fight 19th-century colonial wars in a 21st-century world?Key Topics:The Munich Speech: Marco Rubio's call for a return to "civilizational" power.National Liberation: How India and Vietnam broke the British and French empires.The American Empire: From the "Pax Americana" to the transactional gangster state.The Global South: Why the new non-aligned world will not submit to neocolonialism.Explaining History helps you understand the 20th Century through critical conversations and expert interviews.

    In this episode of the Reiki Lifestyle Podcast, Colleen and Robyn welcome Lena Takahashi and Muniqui Muhammad from Healing Land Reiki in Japan. They share what it's like to practice and teach Reiki in the country where Reiki began and why many people are surprised to learn that Reiki is still not widely understood in Japan the way it is in the West. Lena and Muniqui tell the story of how Reiki found them through synchronicity, including a "Reiki handbook" that sat on a shelf for fourteen years before it became the key that opened their path. They describe the impact of their first Reiki sessions, the clarity and inner quiet they experienced, and how that turned into a dedication to share Reiki as a practical, life-changing practice. They also talk about what it means to be a Reiki Master as a lifelong student, staying open-minded, continuing to study, and valuing evidence-based Reiki history alongside direct personal experience with Reiki energy. And their journey to become ICRT Licensed Teachers in Japan.  A central part of the conversation is Mount Kurama and the relationship Lena and Muniqui have built with the mountain and temple community. Lena shares the full story of helping bring the World Peace Reiki Grid to Mount Kurama, the timing, and the years-long process that led to its official acceptance. You'll also hear about: Why self-practice comes first, and how personal change naturally draws people to you Technique vs. energy, and why there are many right ways to practice Healing Land Reiki's center in Kyoto, plus private and group visits to Mount Kurama The May Full Moon Ceremony (Wesak Festival)on Mt.

    The Answer To The Muslim Invasion | The Todd Coconato Show   Website: www.PastorTodd.org To give: www.ToddCoconato.com/give The Answer to the Muslim Invasion | The Todd Coconato Show On today's broadcast, we're tackling a very serious and sensitive issue facing our nation: What is the biblical response to the growing influence of Islam in America and the West? This is not about fear. It is not about hatred. It is about clarity, courage, and conviction. We will discuss what the Church must do in this hour. How do we respond in our communities? What should our posture be toward our Muslim neighbors? How do we protect our nation while still walking in the authority, love, and truth of Jesus Christ? We will examine the spiritual, cultural, and practical dimensions of this moment and outline a Christian response that is bold, wise, and rooted in Scripture. Revival, evangelism, discipleship, and strong leadership must replace passivity and confusion. Join me today for a broadcast that is timely, direct, and focused on real solutions for this hour.

    The Reduced Working Week - Productivity or Sloth?

    Should Britain move to a shorter working week? Would a three-day or four-day week make us healthier, more productive, and less miserable… or is it just the final stage of national decline dressed up as “wellbeing”?In this episode of Mark and Pete, we dive into the growing push for a reduced working week, inspired by countries like the Netherlands, where people seem to work fewer hours, take more time off, and still manage to run a nation that functions better than ours. Meanwhile, Britain clings to its proud tradition of overworking, underproducing, and pretending that exhaustion is a personality trait.We explore the real evidence behind four-day week trials, productivity studies, and why cutting hours can sometimes increase output. Spoiler: when people have less time, they waste less time. Fewer pointless meetings. Less email theatre. Less corporate box-ticking. More actual work.But we also ask the harder questions. Is the shorter working week only realistic for office workers with laptops and “hybrid schedules”? What about nurses, builders, shop staff, delivery drivers, and everyone else who can't simply log off and call it self-care? Is this reform… or just another perk for the middle class?We also tackle the cultural side of it: if people had more free time, would they invest it into family life, church, community, and rest? Or would we simply spend the extra days doomscrolling, ordering takeaway, and watching Netflix until we forget what day it is?With Mark's trademark poetry and Pete's Christian perspective, this episode asks whether the West needs fewer working hours… or whether it needs a deeper recovery: a return to purpose, discipline, and Sabbath-shaped living.Keywords: shorter working week, four-day week UK, Dutch work culture, productivity, burnout, work-life balance, modern Britain, cultural decline, Christian commentary, Sabbath rest.

    In a special edition of Chatham House's Independent Thinking podcast recorded at the Munich Security Conference 2026 over the weekend, Chatham House Director Bronwen Maddox and Grégoire Roos, Director of the Europe and Russia and Eurasia Programmes, unpack the key issues that emerged from this year's forum. The main speaker, US Secretary of State Marco Rubio, adopted a different tone from Vice President JD Vance, who shocked many in the audience last year when he delivered a verbal broadside against Europe at the same conference. But does it signify a shift in the Trump administration's newly assertive stance, or was it the same message in a different wrapping? In a recording session in a side room amid the hustle and flow of the conference, they also discuss innovations in defence technology and drone development, the resilience of Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy, what level of support Ukraine can expect from Europe, and whether European companies and policymakers will respond effectively in the face of increasing competition from Chinese manufacturers.   Subscribe to Independent Thinking wherever you find your podcasts.    Read our latest: Comment | The West vs the West at the Munich Security Conference Comment | Climate security should be a bigger priority at the Munich Security Conference Comment | What should a more European NATO look like?

Join The Man of the West and The Sage of the South for some hazy cosmic jive as we conclude our four-episode look at the story of Tal-Elmar. It turns out Mogru's been plotting for a while now, Tal-Elmar could probably do with a few more clothes, and the Númenóreans apparently have errands to run. We note that Christoper Tolkien did an amazing job with his father's “excruciatingly difficult” handwriting, agree to disagree as to whether James is actually Jabba the Hutt, and decide that the fourth danger of the Agar swamp is the Men Of Unusual Size.

    On Friday's Mark Levin Show, President Trump has likely made up his mind to act on Iran, with only military tactics possibly remaining as the question. Iran will never change their ways; there mindset is not about deals. Whether it's ​the ​Marxist or ​the ​Islamist ​ideology, ​whether ​it's ​our ​belief ​system, - it's all ​about ​power, ​the ​proper ​use ​of ​it ​and ​the ​improper ​use ​of ​it. Islamism seeks total control over mind, body, society, and government through Sharia, unlike the Judeo-Christian focus on individual liberty. Islam has not undergone an enlightenment against theocracy, and dominant Muslim groups in the West support Islamism, which rejects interpretive diversity and often prioritizes political agendas, including antisemitism and anti-Israel motives. Islamists aim to conquer rather than coexist, as shown by sectarian violence, terrorism (Hamas, Al Qaeda, etc.), and Iran's deceptive pursuit of nuclear weapons despite negotiations. Later, the Democrat Party truly hates America and they're at war with America. That's why the Islamists and the Marxists are now part of their coalition, just as decades ago the segregationists and the slavers were part of their coalition. It's all about power for this party. Democrats hate native-born Americans and seek to replace them with illegal immigrants. This is because many immigrants do not speak English, lack understanding of American civil liberties, the Declaration of Independence, or the Constitution, making them easily manipulated through propaganda. Politicians promise them benefits while attacking productive native citizens. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
