Show Notes

  • America had one of the wildest weeks in its political history, with impeachment, political defections, authoritarian crackdowns—all in advance of the planned inauguration of Joseph Biden as the nation’s next president.
  • China has intensified its crackdown on Hong Kong, and signs indicate it is planning even stricter measures to strip the territory of its independence.
  • Italy, the Netherlands and Germany all face huge political challenges, the collapse of their governments, and lack of clear succession. It is emblematic of the need for dramatic political change within Europe, which biblical prophecy shows will take place.
  • We also cover deadly air strikes in Syria, Russia’s impressive air force advancements, Iran becoming the new headquarters for al Qaeda, and an overlooked story of 2020: the fact that America had more billion-dollar weather disasters than ever in history.
