Russia, China and others are developing high-tech weapons, against which the United States currently has no defense. Meanwhile America has spent decades encouraging Europe to create a superstate—a power that will soon prove a major rival to the U.S. On today’s program, Trumpet staff writer Richard Palmer discusses the dangerous blind spot America has went it comes to judging potential threats.

Many people are aware of the Passover, although few truly understand the meaning of that day and what it pictures. An even smaller number of people are aware of the days that come after the Passover: the Days of Unleavened Bread. These days represent the next step in God’s plan of salvation for mankind—coming out of sin. God makes His plan easy for us to see in His holy days, yet so few keep them today. On today’s show, Stephen Flurry explains the meaning of the Days of Unleavened Bread.

Many people are looking to this year’s United States presidential election as a huge turning point for the nation. On the Republican side, last night Donald Trump took a big step toward winning his party’s nomination in July. But is Donald Trump really the solution to America’s many problems? In many ways, his political views are very similar to politicians on the left. The Bible shows that neither party will fix the family breakdown—or prevent America from further decline. To hear more on this topic, be sure to listen to the latest Trumpet Daily Radio Show.

Britain’s relationship with the United States is fracturing and it may not be long before Britain finds itself alone on the world stage. In his speeches over the past week, U.S. President Barack Obama made it clear that the U.S. is more concerned about developing relations with Europe than it is about preserving its special relationship with Britain. Bible prophecy reveals that Britain will not be a part of the European power bloc. What will Europe look like without Britain? And is it smart for the U.S. to encourage Europe to take on a greater leadership role? Find the answers on today’s Trumpet Daily Radio Show.

One of the first pieces to go when United States President Barack Obama entered the Oval Office in 2009 was a bust of Winston Churchill. The decision sparked controversy between the United States and United Kingdom. Some thought it was a snub and a signal of the end of the special relationship between the two nations. At the time, the White House was firm in saying the return of the bust to the UK was just a matter of course and wasn’t something the president or his administration chose to do. During a press conference last week, however, President Obama revealed that he was the one who decided to remove the bust. His comment, along with other threatening remarks, signals a growing rift between the two nations. Where does Bible prophecy say this fracturing relationship is leading? Listen to the latest Trumpet Daily Radio Show to find out.

The Bible records real events that happened to real people—none more important than what happened to Jesus Christ on His final night as a human. In today’s program, Herbert W. Armstrong College history instructor Brent Nagtegaal looks at the events of the Passover in light of the political situation of Judea.

Half a billion dollars to buy planes that never fly; $36 million for a base that’s never been used; a plan for high-tech solar-powered bus stops in Afghanistan. The United States military waste of money is well known, but you may be surprised by the vast amounts involved. While some parts of the military are desperate for funds, others are struggling to find uses for equipment they don’t need. Trumpet staff writer Richard Palmer examines this waste, as well the rot deep in the heart of America’s defense establishment, that these scandals expose.

The prevailing narrative in the West is that Shiite-Iran and Sunni-ISIS are mortal enemies. Based on this premise, many believe that America and the West ought to partner with Iran to confront the Islamic State, or at least give Tehran license to do what is necessary in the Middle East to destroy the terrorist group. But what if Iran and ISIS are not the enemies many believe? On today’s Trumpet Daily Radio Show, columnist Brad Macdonald explores the horrifying reality of the situation: that Iran was largely responsible for the rise of ISIS, that Iran benefits from the Islamic State’s activities, and that, prophetically, Iran and ISIS are on the same team.

The United States Marine Corps is at its breaking point, according to a recent report that aired on Fox News, and it’s putting the nation at risk. The majority of its strike fighter aircraft isn’t airworthy, and pilots aren’t being given enough flying time. The U.S. has dramatically cut military spending over the last five years. If America can’t afford to maintain its current military, how can troops be expected to maintain high morale, let alone true combat effectiveness? What does Bible prophecy say about the decline of America’s military? Find out on today’s Trumpet Daily Radio Show.
