Show Notes

First up on the Week in Review is Pope Francis’s visit to Cuba tomorrow. Why is he visiting there before coming to the U.S.? We look at how this fits in with his critiques of America’s economic system.
We also cover the violence erupting on the Temple Mount. Who is promoting it, why now, and where could this lead?
Germany’s Angela Merkel tells the UK, We’ll give you a looser relationship with Europe—if you let us form a EUROPEAN ARMY.
With Russia increasing its presence in the Middle East, we talk about its interests there and what the effects will be.
Finally, the Federal Reserve threatened to raise interest rates—and this week said, Just kidding. The reason says a lot about the world economy.
All this and much more on today’s Trumpet Hour.
