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.

Pax Americana was meant to ensure global stability by discouraging other nations from building up armaments. The absence of arms races meant there was relative stability and a lesser chance of war breaking out. Today, however, America’s leadership is taking the opposite approach, encouraging allies to fend for themselves without American aid. This shift will prove to be catastrophic for the United States because it is based on the assumption that allies will always be allies. History proves this is a fatal mistake. To learn the outcome of this dangerous trend, listen to today’s Trumpet Daily Radio Show.

What has inflicted more harm on Western culture—radical Islam or moral decay? You still hear some powerful voices speaking out against radical Islam, but when it comes to the fight against immorality, Western nations have gone silent. Herbert W. Armstrong wrote that the downward plunge of morality is “a greater threat to humanity than the hydrogen bomb.” This new immorality has come to define Western culture more than anything else—and it’s destroying our civilization. How much longer will nations like the United States and Britain be able to survive this deadly assault on morality? Listen to today’s Trumpet Daily Radio Show to find out where this is leading.

A task force organized by Chicago Mayor Rahm Emanuel published its report this week about how to improve relations between police and residents. The report blamed racism as the key cause of the city’s problems. Chicago police have “no regard for the sanctity of life when it comes to people of color,” it said. Is racism really the core problem here? Or is this report another attempt to undermine police authority?


Russian aircraft taunted a United States Navy vessel this week, conducting attack-like maneuverers and flying within 90 feet of the ship. The U.S. strongly condemned the provocative move by carefully noting that it was “entirely inconsistent” with professional norms. However, that was all the U.S. did in response. Just what will it take to actually upset America?


A television program recently aired in the United Kingdom highlighting the dangerous attitudes many Muslims harbor against the UK. The show reveals how multiculturalism has failed in Britain and has actually led to the creation of micro-nations run by Islamic law within the country. Where is this dangerous trend leading, and why are so few willing to speak up about it?
