Show Notes

  • A massive explosion in Lebanon on Tuesday has the Lebanese people demanding political change that could dislodge Hezbollah from power. A well-timed visit by France’s president showed Europe’s ambition to reshape the country politically—a transformation in line with a biblical prophecy our editor in chief has been talking about for decades.
  • Russia and China are reducing their dependence on the U.S. dollar in a way that is moving these two nations into a “financial alliance” and could substantially undermine the dollar’s international power.
  • We also talk about China’s growing economic influence in Central Asia, Germany wrestling over the conflict between COVID-19 restrictions and basic freedoms, the New York Times having accepted millions of dollars to publish propaganda from the Chinese Communist Party, illegal immigrants flooding into Britain in record numbers, and Americans buying more guns than ever.
