The following program is made possible by the faithful prayers and financial support of listeners just like you.
To find out how you can help, visit nothing but the truth, so help us God.
I'm Rick Wiles.
Well, the last thing the world needs is more war, but that is what the Israelis are planning to give us.
Israeli newspapers reported today that IDF combat pilots plan to rehearse a military attack on Iran.
Israel's chariots of fire military drill began on May 9 and will include a simulated wide-scale bombing attack on Iran.
American military forces will participate in the war drill that will be held in Cyprus beginning
on May 29.
Doc Burkhardt and I have more details about the planned Israeli war against Iran.
So, Doc, gee, just when the world is reeling from the Russia-Ukraine war.
Israel and the United States are planning another war.
You've got to move to the next one.
You've got to have one in the pocket ready to go, I guess.
But will there be an outcry against Israel attacking Iran like the world has rallied against Russia?
No, because we've painted Iran as evil, as really bad.
The Russians are bad, but Iran, they're really super bad,
and they probably deserve whatever we throw at them.
And we'll probably just let that happen, Rick.
I don't read any news articles that the Iranian military is conducting drills to bomb Israel.
No, and if they were, they would be front and center, wouldn't they?
You better believe it. And I don't see any news articles that Russia or China are participating in the
Iranian drills to bomb Israel. Right. But what we have here are Jerusalem newspapers and television
networks reporting that the United States and Israel are conducting a joint military drill starting on May 29 to bomb the nation of Iran.
We'll start with the Jerusalem Post.
Israel to simulate striking Iran in massive IDF drill.
So the Israeli military will simulate striking targets far from Israel's borders
with a large number of planes while simultaneously acquiring
new targets on various fronts in real time during its largest military drill in history.
According to the IDF, the drill is unique and unprecedented in scope and will enable
the Army to maintain a high level of readiness in an ever-changing region.
It aims to improve the military's capabilities in an intense, multi-front, and prolonged war on all its borders.
During the drill, the Air Force will also drill on striking targets far from Israel's borders
while troops continue to contend with a multi-front war on its borders.
Now, notice several times in here, Rick, that they talk about the distance from Israel's borders.
They're not talking about just a defense of the borders of Israel itself,
but being able to strike targets far away from its borders.
That's right.
But it also, they mentioned a multi-front war on its borders.
So Israel is planning to attack Iran, but they're anticipating...
A multi-front war.
A war on its borders in response to their attack
on Iran.
I also read today, I didn't bring the articles with me, but the Israeli papers today are
full of military stories about preparation for war. And one article said that the IDF is bracing for very intense warfare inside Israel from the Palestinians.
Now, it doesn't mention the Iranian war, but those articles are around these other stories. So you have to, you just have to assume if they're preparing for intense warfare with the Palestinians, something's going to cause the Palestinians to rise up.
And most likely it's going to be in response to Israel and the United States bombing Iran.
It's said that the IDF will bring in attack helicopters into Palestine, into the West Bank.
So they're going to use attack helicopters against the Palestinian people.
Very serious warfare that is being planned right now.
So they have, again, the drills are for a multi-front war on its borders.
That would include Hamas attacking from Gaza, perhaps Syria attacking from the north, maybe Hezbollah from Lebanon.
Right. And then, of course, you'd have Palestinian insurgents, PALESTINIAN INSURGENTS, TOO, THAT WOULD BE ATTACKING INTERNALLY FROM THE WEST BANK AND FROM GAZA AS WELL, PLUS OPERATING A LONG-DISTANCE WAR,
TOO. AND THEY WOULDN'T BE DOING THAT ALONE. THIS NEXT ARTICLE IS FROM THE TIMES OF ISRAEL.
U.S. REFUELERS TO TAKE PART IN LARGE-SCALE ISRAELI DRILL FOR STRIKE ON IRAN. SO NOW WE ARE ENTERING take part in large-scale Israeli drill for strike on Iran. So now we are entering into partnership in any possible strike on Iran.
The U.S. will partake in Israel's large-scale drill simulating a strike on Iran's nuclear
facilities as part of the broader Chariots of Fire exercise later this month, Channel
13 reported Tuesday.
According to the unsourced report, the U.S. Air Force will
serve as a complementary force, with refueling planes drilling with Israeli fighter jets
as they simulate entering Iranian territory and carrying out repeated strikes. The aerial
collaboration is seen as a potential message to Iran amid long-stalled negotiations in Vienna
over a return to the 2015 nuclear deal,
a possibility Israel has repeatedly voiced its objection to,
warning it would lead to a more violent, more volatile Middle East.
Channel 13 defense reporter Orr Heller noted that by including the U.S. in the drill, the two countries are sending a message to Iran that the U.S. could support an Israeli offensive
even if
its fighter jets do not actively participate.
The report said U.S. CENTCOM Commander General Michael Eric Carrillo landed in Israel on
Tuesday ahead of the planned drill and will be in charge of coordinating between the IDF
and the U.S. military.
And this drill, which involves nearly all units of the IDF, has been focusing on training for fighting on Israel's northern borders,
including against the Iran-backed Hezbollah terror group in Lebanon.
Now, in addition to having to find ways to strike Iranian facilities
that are buried deep underground requiring specialized munitions and tactics,
the IAF will have to deal with increasingly sophisticated Iranian air
defenses in order to conduct such a strike. The Air Force will also have to prepare for
an expected retaliation against Israel by Iran and its allies throughout the region.
The upcoming drill is also expected to focus on preparing for and responding to such retaliation.
Rick, as you often like to do, you like to flip the script.
So what if Iran was conducting a major drill, major operation involving all of its air force, all of its technology,
and the Russians or the Chinese, let's say, were providing material support, such as refueling,
would we say that Russia and China are partners in any attack that Iran might have against Israel?
Of course we would.
Of course we would.
But when the shoe's on the other foot, it's okay.
But the U.S. is participating in this war and encouraging it,
and the U.S. and Israel are joined at the hips. So let's let's use their logic
Let's use Iran's logic. I mean it's not about Israel's Israel's logic
They are planning to attack Iran because they say
Iran is building weapons that could destroy Israel are
they still a week away remember Netanyahu for years away oh
according to these reports it's it's it's imminent that's why they're doing
this drill so doc the Israelis are saying they're doing these drills
because the Iranians are are building weapons and planning to attack Israel someday with these weapons.
And they can't allow these weapons of mass destruction to be in possession of Iran and so close to Israel in terms of distance you know the proximity of Iran to Israel that those
missiles could reach Israel in a matter of minutes therefore Israel to defend
itself is going to take a pre-emptive strike to hit Iran destroy the weapons
so that those weapons will never be used against the Israeli people.
Is that their logic?
That is their logic.
I know where you're going to go with this now.
Well, that's exactly what the Russians said.
Yes.
That NATO is putting weapons in Ukraine.
Right.
And they need to make a preemptive move to prevent that from happening.
Yes. So if the Israelis, with the support of the United States,
are permitted to bomb Iran using that logic,
why isn't Russia permitted to invade Ukraine using the same logic?
What's the difference?
Well, the difference is because of our support for Israel.
That's the difference right there. And because we want to for Israel. That's the difference right there.
And because we want to destroy Russia.
That's the difference as well.
So I'm against all these wars.
Yes.
I don't want Russia attacking Ukraine, and I don't want Ukraine in NATO,
and I don't want Israel attacking Iran, and I don't want Iran attacking Israel.
I'm against all of the wars.
Using their logic once again, would Iran be justified in preemptively destroying any Israeli nuclear facilities?
Well, if I were an Iranian military commander and I'm reading the Times of Israel and Jerusalem Post going,
hey, they're planning to bomb us.
We might want to bomb them first.
That's where this, when you play this game, there's going to be a war.
Because somebody's going to hit first.
Somebody's going to strike first.
When you are practicing to attack somebody, that person who is the target is going to hit you first.
Yes.
And then you use that as the justification to strike them back yes but you provoked it just like nato provoked russia to
attack ukraine and now everybody's crying oh look what russia did no nato provoked it it was
deliberate they wanted the war and they want this war here.
This is all part of the destruction of the current world order
in order to usher in the next new world order.
Somebody's got to start World War III,
and daggone it, they're having trouble getting this thing going.
Somebody bomb somebody and get the war started.
That's the mentality of the globalists.
Well, it may be happening even quicker than we think.
This is from Times of Israel today.
In a first, Russian military said to fire S-300 missiles
at Israeli jets over Syria.
Okay.
Well, here we go again.
So Israel bombs Syria like, you know,
it's like they're going out to a convenience store.
Hey, let's just fly over to Syria and bomb them today.
Hundreds and hundreds and hundreds of bombing campaigns over Syria in the last five years.
But Russia has been restrained in response to that.
There are Russian troops in Syria.
So Russian forces.
And American troops.
Yes. Russian forces opened fire on Israeli
jets with advanced S-300 anti-aircraft missiles at the end of an alleged IAF attack on targets
in northwestern Syria last week, Channel 13 News reported Monday, in what could signal a significant
shift in Moscow's attitude toward Israel. According to the unsourced report, the unprecedented
incident occurred on Friday night
when the Israeli Air Force bombed several targets near the city of Meshef in northwestern Syria.
At least five people were killed and seven were hurt in the airstrike, Syria's state news agency said.
Other media in the country said six were killed, all crew members of a Panzer air defense system
who attempted to
take down the Israeli missiles. Now, the report also said the Syrian military fired off dozens
of anti-aircraft missiles, which have been largely ineffective at halting the hundreds of Israeli
strikes on Syria in recent years. However, this time, the S-300 batteries also opened fire as the jets were departing the area.
The report noted that serious S-300 batteries are operated by the Russian military
and cannot be fired without their approval.
The report said the S-300 radar did not manage to lock onto the Israeli jets
and thus did not present a serious threat to the IAF fighter jets.
They didn't want to lock onto them. They didn't want to lock on to them.
They didn't want to. You're absolutely right, Doc.
The Russians fired the missiles as a warning shot to Israel.
Don't do this again. The next time, we're going to take down your planes.
Now, if confirmed, this would be the first time,
the first use of the S-300s against the IAF over Syria,
and would be a worrying development for Israel, which has carried out hundreds of airstrikes
inside Syria in the course of the country's civil war, and since, targeting what it says
are armed shipments bound for Lebanon's Iran-backed Hezbollah terror group and other
Iranian-linked sites. And so they've had pretty much free reign to just bomb
whatever they want to in Syria for my recent memory. What happens, Doc, when the Russians
shoot down Israeli warplanes over Syria? Oh, well, then we're in World War III for sure.
Yeah, we are, because there would be such an outcry here in the U.S. about now the Russians have taken the war to the Middle East.
Wait a minute. Israel's bombing another country.
Let's not talk about that aspect of it, Rick. That's a minor detail.
How dare you shoot down our bombers when we're bombing your country?
How dare you shoot us down? We'll start a war over this.
Just don't quibble over details, Rick.
The fact of the matter is,
if Russia shoots down an Israeli jet,
we know basically all hell will break loose in the Middle East.
And here politically as well,
because both Democrats and Republicans
are joined at the hip on support for Israel.
Oh, do you know the level of screaming
that will come from the Christian Zionists?
They'll hyperventilate.
Yes, and they'll be calling, bomb them, bomb them.
Good Christian people, good Christian leaders.
Let's bomb the tar out of somebody.
Destroy, there'll be,
Christian churches will be demanding
that Russia be destroyed.
You can count on it.
And they'll talk about Ezekiel 38 and 39
and all this other stuff going along with it,
that stuff that's already been fulfilled in history.
But they'll say, now Russia's done it.
They're fulfilling Bible prophecy.
We have a foreign policy dictated by prophecy
that's already been fulfilled.
By the way, how we're talking about Russia,
I read today, and I don't have the story here in front of me,
I just saw it a few minutes ago,
Bloomberg reporting today
that the Biden administration is going to block Russia
from paying its debt.
They're going to prevent them from paying their debt.
They're upset.
They're frustrated that so far with all the sanctions,
Russia has managed to pay the installment payments on their loans.
So the U.S. Treasury Department is going to block Russia
from making the next payment to force them into default.
Well, how can somebody be in default if the banker, if a thug prevented the mortgagee from making a mortgage payment?
It doesn't make any sense.
How can you be in default?
Let's see, again, they're determined to start World War III.
Folks, if you're not taking this seriously, I don't know what to say to you.
World War III is on.
Yes.
It is on.
And the warmongers in America and Israel and Europe, they desperately want this war.
They're so frustrated that they can't get it started. and Israel and Europe, they desperately want this war.
They're so frustrated that they can't get it started. And they just go from one thing to the next
looking for a way to provoke Russia into bombing somebody
so that they can declare World War III.
It is a dangerous time to be alive.
Please do not dismiss it and think it's not going to happen.
We're right on the edge of it right now.
And we just go from one provocation to the next.
So we've got the U.S. going to prevent Russia from legally paying its bills.
Right.
It's not defaulting.
They're not wanting to default.
They want to pay their bills.
They're locking the banks
so you can't come in
and make your payment.
Right.
So we've got the U.S. doing that
and then we have the U.S. and Israel
practicing to bomb Iran.
Another way to get a war started.
One way or the other,
the warmongers are going to get
the world into World War III.
The war itch is on, isn't it? It is. One way or the other, the warmongers are going to get the world into World War III.
The war itch is on, isn't it?
It is.
Because they have plans for a new world order to replace the existing new world order.
So World War III is probably not going to be the big war.
It's World War IV we really have to worry about now, isn't it?
Because World War III is happening now, whether we realize it or not.
We're going to look back 25, 30 years from now and it? Because World War III is happening now, whether we realize it or not. We're going to look back
25, 30 years from now and say, remember World War
III?
I think it's going to go
far hotter
than
what we're experiencing
right now. You know, Dr. Talal
in Jordan, he doesn't believe that this is
going to go nuclear. He believes it's going to
be World War III is going to be fought in various non-nuclear methods. I'm not convinced
of that. When people start throwing punches, somebody's going to pull a gun.
Yes. Somebody's going to get shot.
Yeah. Somebody's going to get shot. You get a fight going in a bar, and soon enough, somebody's going to pull a gun. Yes. Somebody's going to get shot. Somebody's going to get shot.
You get a fight going in a bar,
and soon enough,
somebody's going to pull a knife or a gun,
and somebody's going to die.
And that's what's going to happen
with this confrontation
that the West is building with Russia.
Sooner or later,
somebody's going to die,
and there's going to be a lot of people.
And I just dread the thought of what life is like after World War III.
Folks, if it happens and you survive it, you are going to cry out,
why didn't we stop it?
It could have been stopped.
It was so visible.
It was so obvious where we were going into a world war.
Why didn't reasonable minds prevail?
Well, reasonable minds are seeking peace right now.
We're saying, why don't we consider peace?
But they don't want peace.
They need this war.
They need World War III to make the new world order happen.
That's right.
Just one brief story about Israel.
Last week we told you about how the IDF
shot in the face a Christian woman
who was a reporter for Al Jazeera.
They shot her in the face.
She was doing her job reporting
on what the IDF was doing to the Palestinians.
And they shot her in the face.
And she's an American and she's a Christian.
So that wasn't good enough for the Israelis.
They had to take it to another level. went to her funeral and the Israeli police and military raided the hospital where her
corpse was at. They raided the hospital when they were getting ready to bring her casket
out of the hospital. And they beat the pallbearers. That's what the Israelis do. We've got some stories on this.
We've got some video here. This is right before the funeral when they were preparing the casket,
the coffin for the Palestinian-American reporter that had been killed. This is some video from the hospital, from the closed circuit cameras.
So this is the Israeli police gathering outside.
It's the hospital.
Yeah.
Where's her dead body is at.
So they're firing tear gas.
So this is the police actually storming the hospital.
To get to the casket.
Yes.
And it's not two or three police, but dozens of them going
into the hospital here. That's the way the Israeli Zionists treat the Palestinian people.
Now, I will tell you again, I proudly stand with the Palestinian people against these thugs.
Now, newly released security camera footage from St. Joseph Hospital in Jerusalem
shows police officers armed with batons
running through the facility
where the funeral procession
for Al Jazeera journalist
Shireen Abu Akhla began on Friday.
That's a Christian hospital.
Right.
And so this is the IDF,
I mean the Israeli police at work here.
And so now they've been getting some pushback on this particular story.
Amazingly enough, Times of Israel is reporting police violence at journalist's funeral said to be over waving of Palestinian flags.
So I guess them storming the hospital meant they were in there searching for flags, I guess.
Yes, and beating pallbearers in a funeral for a Christian woman that they murdered.
Now, this is incredibly bad press for Israel. Police who intervened at the funeral of Al
Jazeera journalist Shireen Abu Akhla, who was a believer, by the way, beating mourners
and firing stun grenades into the crowd became embroiled with mourners by
attempting to seize the Palestinian flags they were displaying. The Haratz Daily reported on Sunday
officers had been given specific orders to take down any flags they encountered
at Friday's funeral procession for Abu Akhla according to the newspaper report that cited
unnamed police sources. Now the order was given by Jerusalem District Police
Commander Doran Turgman, but overseen by his deputy, Danny Levy, as Turgman himself was away
in Germany as part of a police delegation. Now, it goes on to say, on the day itself,
an even lower-ranking officer than Levy ordered the cops to go with clubs in their hands all the
way up to the pallbearers.
Channel 12 News reported.
Now, there's other video out there that shows the Israeli police taking the flags off the hearse
that was carrying the coffin through the town.
And then after they took the coffin out and they were carrying the coffin,
police were reaching up and taking the Palestinian flag carrying the coffin. Police were reaching up, taking the flag off, Palestinian flag off the coffin.
And of course, other video of the police interacting.
It's not interacting. It was beating the living daylights out of the
mourners there. And they just get carte blanche.
They get a free pass on this. Anybody else doing this,
they would call the UN on it.
But no, Israel gets a free pass on this.
Imagine people, police officers storming a Jewish hospital
and beating up Jewish pallbearers who had the Star of David flags.
Right.
And the order was remove those Star of David flags.
I mean, that would be the same thing. So this would be wrong. It would be wrong, Doc.
It would be absolutely. And what the Israelis did to the Palestinians was wrong.
And I'm going to stand with the Palestinians and denounce their thuggery because they just
treat the Palestinians like they're animals.
It's just how they see them as less than humans.
I'm going to go back to Russia and the battle with NATO.
CNBC reporting Turkey is threatening to block NATO membership for Sweden and Finland.
Yeah, this story has been going back and forth over the past week. We get a story one day that he would veto it, and the next day, maybe not. But it seems
like he's really pushing forward now on his opposition to Sweden and Finland. Turkish
President Erdogan has doubled down on his opposition to Sweden and Finland, joining the
NATO alliance, a move that would be historic for the two Nordic countries
in the wake of Russia's invasion of Ukraine.
By the way, they both did apply.
We will not say yes to those countries who apply sanctions to Turkey
to join security organization NATO, Erdogan said at a news conference late Monday.
He was referring to Sweden's suspension of weapon sales to Turkey in 2019
over its military activities in Syria.
Now, Sweden's foreign ministry said Monday that it planned to send senior officials from both Sweden and Finland
to Turkish capital Ankara to address Erdogan's objections,
but the Turkish leader essentially said they'd be wasting their time.
Will they come to persuade us, excuse us, but they shouldn't bother, Erdogan said.
He added that the two countries joining
would make NATO a place where representatives
of terrorist organizations are concentrated.
What does that mean?
Well, that means that within Sweden and Finland,
especially Sweden,
there are those that have been cast out of
Turkey.
Oh, the Kurdish PKK.
Right, the PKK.
Some of them have even been elected to Parliament there in Sweden.
And in Mr. Erdogan's view, they're supporting terrorist activities.
And of course, Sweden has sanctions on Turkey right now.
So can one NATO member sanction another NATO member?
And so he's got a great argument right there.
I mean, can England sanction France within the NATO alliance?
I mean, we're sanctioning Russia because they're the enemy.
So when you sanction somebody, you don't sanction a friend.
You're sanctioning an enemy.
So Sweden's got to lift its sanctions against Turkey.
And they're probably going to have to do a lot
more than that, too, to convince Mr. Erdogan.
I'm a little bit more cynical.
I think Mr. Erdogan is
posturing to begin the negotiations.
They're going to get in.
It's just there's a price tag.
Yes. I mean,
he saw them try to ship $40 billion to Ukraine.
Yeah.
Maybe the U.S. has some money laying around.
That's right.
They're going to get in, and he's going to get something.
Turkey and him together will each get something.
And reason will prevail.
Reasonable minds.
Yes, reasonable minds.
And cash.
Will come together
and democracy will be saved
as Turkey changes its mind
and allows Finland and Sweden
to join NATO
after the check is cashed.
Wheat prices hit record high after India export ban.
So India said no Indian farmers can ship Indian wheat out of the country.
And why are they doing that?
Because they're concerned about shortages.
They're smart, and they're going to take care of their people.
So this is actually a story from yesterday.
Wheat prices surged to a record high on Monday
after India decided to ban exports of the commodity
as a heat wave hit production.
So the price jumped up to 435 euros per ton
as the European market opened.
India, the world's second largest wheat producer,
said on Saturday that it was banning exports
after its hottest march on record.
New Delhi said factors including lower production and sharply higher global prices
meant it was worried about the food security of its own 1.4 billion people.
And so a couple things I learned yesterday from this is I didn't know that India
was the second largest wheat producer in the world.
I thought it was Russia.
India? Yes. And so it was Russia. India.
Yes.
And so that was surprising to me.
And I guess there's a lot of countries in the Middle East
and some places in Europe and Asia that really depend on India wheat.
For instance, Egypt is now going through a crisis now
because of the extreme prices of wheat going up.
Egypt is the world's largest importer of wheat in the world.
The largest importer of wheat in the world.
In fact, they import about 90% of their wheat.
And that was another surprising thing about this too.
So they're desperately trying to make a deal with India.
And India has kind of given it a little bit of leeway
by allowing Egypt to buy wheat directly from the Indian government
rather than from the producers themselves
because there's caps on producers.
But through negotiation, Egypt can still have a supply of grain
because Egypt up until this year relied about 80% on its grain coming from Ukraine.
And that's out this year.
Yes.
And so.
Doc, Napoleon once said, armies travel on its stomach.
Right.
Well, you have to feed soldiers.
And when countries don't have any bread, armies begin moving to look for bread.
That's right. And what do you have? A world war. You have invasions. You have one country
conquering another country looking for food, looking for resources. This is the state of
the world right now in 2022. It very unstable very dangerous we now have global
food shortage at the time of rampant mega out of control inflation um you have nations uh either at war or on the edge of war.
And it is an extremely dangerous time to be alive on planet Earth.
And people should take this very, very seriously.
I would encourage you in the next week or two
to read this book, Final Day.
This stuff will start making sense to you
why the world is in this mess that we're in right now.
It's very easy to explain.
The world is falling apart.
It's just that simple.
It's coming apart.
We're at the end of time.
Mankind's time is expiring.
There's a cosmic meter,
and God has set on that meter
the amount of time that man has on planet Earth.
And the meter is ready to pop up
a sign that says,
expired, time's out.
Mankind's time on this planet is running out.
And Jesus told us there will be wars and rumors of wars
and famines and pestilence.
Great signs.
All kinds of things are going to be happening.
And we look around and we see it.
Christ is coming.
Christ is coming.
Order this book and read it.
It will change your understanding of the second coming of Jesus Christ. It'll make it very easy to understand, and you'll start explaining it to your friends and relatives. The book is $19.95
plus shipping. I'll do a personal autograph for a $100 donation. The funds can go into supporting this
ministry. I have not received a single penny as a royalty for writing this book. I've given it all
away so that True News can continue. And so order several copies and give it away to others.

and somebody will take your call and place your order for the book but
now it's time folks if you're looking for signs but that we're at the end of
the the end of the age of mankind I don't know what else to show you then
what we're doing every single day here showing you how the world is marching towards world war and it's the mercy of god that's holding
this back because satan wants the war god doesn't want the war satan wants the war why does he want
the war because he likes destruction he likes death and blood yes and when people die in war
and they're not saved they'll never be saved after they're dead. That's why
Satan likes war. The more people that can die in a war
the more people will end up in hell. That's what
Satan's after. Satan's trying to steal God's harvest
from him and he's doing a pretty good job in the world around us.
But we can stand up to that.
Look at this next story.
This is the Times of London.
War in Ukraine.
Food shortages poses apocalyptic inflation threats, says Bank of England governor.
And when the Bank of England speaks, people listen, Rick.
The Bank of England has warned that food supplies pose an apocalyptic
threat to inflation as Ukraine struggles to export vital crops like wheat and sunflower oil.
Andrew Bailey, governor of the bank, told MPs he felt very uncomfortable because
rises in inflation were being driven by a series of external shocks, including the war and supply
chain issues caused by lockdowns in China.
Now, they're adding that to the mix now, Rick.
An inflation risk factor I'm going to sound apocalyptic about is food,
Bailey told MPs on the Treasury Select Committee.
Ukraine does have food in store, but can't get it out at the moment.
The Bank of England governor says I'm sounding apocalyptic about the world food
supply. Next thing you know, he's going to be hosting a podcast, you know, and trying
to warn people that Christ is coming. Look, I want this guy to get saved. He doesn't know
Christ. I hope he gets saved.
I hope he looks at the state of the world and goes, we can't fix it.
There's no way to fix it.
And when there's not enough food, the best thing to do is kill off a bunch of people.
That's the way they think.
That's their thinking.
And they're okay with that.
Supply and demand.
Yes.
There's too many people, not enough food.
What do we do?
Kill off a bunch of people.
Right.
Balance it out.
We'll have to have a war and kill them.
They think like this, folks.
They really think that way.
On the grand scale, yes. In their private meetings, they think that way.
Collateral loss.
Yes.
So they don't have a solution for the problem.
The solution is Jesus Christ.
That's the solution.
He is the solution to mankind's problems.
By the way, I want to just correct the Bank of England governor about the word apocalyptic.
It's a misuse of the word.
Right. The word apocalyptic, it's a misuse of the word. Apocalypse does not mean destruction, scary, end times, disaster.
Apocalypse simply means the revealing, the unveiling.
So the revelation of Jesus Christ, the apocalypse, the book is called the apocalypse
because it is the revealing, the unveiling of Jesus Christ.
Right.
It's not an unveiling of war and destruction.
No, it's the unveiling of Jesus Christ and his return.
Absolutely.
And the book of Revelation, the Apocalypse, is not a futuristic book.
Everything in it is futuristic.
And you've got to read it in
Chronological order and this chapter leads to this chapter. Look the book of
The revelation of Jesus Christ is God's love story to
Humanity it is God's story of the church
It is the revealing of Jesus Christ the unveiling of Jesus Christ to humanity that is the message in the book of the revelation of Jesus Christ the revelation of Jesus Christ yes not the revelation
of meteors and disasters and earthquakes and bombs people have a completely skewed messed up
understanding of the book of Revelation.
They read it looking for all these scary things to happen, and they miss Jesus.
It's all about Jesus.
That's what I try to get through to everybody in this book.
It's all about Jesus.
When he comes back, it's all about him.
It's not about Israel.
It's not about Jerusalem.
It's about him. It's not about Israel. It's not about Jerusalem. It's about Jesus. And
that doesn't excite a lot of people who call themselves Christians. It's really weird,
isn't it? Jesus doesn't really excite them. Israel excites them. Judaism excites them.
A third temple excites them, but not Jesus. I'm excited about Jesus. I desire and
long for Jesus Christ, and He is the desire of my heart. And I hope you have that same desire too.
And I'm looking for people who will help me tell others about the greatness, the magnificence of Jesus Christ and why they should be waiting for his return.
As we move on to, oh, while we're talking about food shortages,
we've got a baby formula shortage
in America. And there's the man who has caused it. That guy right
there. Doc, I've been trying to figure out why
do we have a baby food, a baby formula shortage?
And there's the face of the shortage right there. That man. He has shut down and is keeping shut
down America's biggest baby formula manufacturing plant. He is the head of the FDA. He's an
Obama administration
retread, now in
the Obama
Biden administration. Obama 2.0
administration. And big
friend of
the pharmaceutical companies.
How else could he get the job at
FDA director? And a big friend of
Google. Google paid him millions of dollars.
He shut down the Abbott baby formula factory,
and he won't let it reopen.
Right.
That's Robert Califf there, the FDA commissioner.
But Abbott is claiming that the FDA hasn't given it the green light
to restart production,
even though the news out of the White House and the FDA is that they're in the process actually
White House yesterday Rick I don't know if you heard this they said they've been
working on the baby formula issue for months what do you mean months this
wasn't an issue until just a few weeks ago but they've been working on it for
months and so because they shut the plant down in February that's right so
the troubled Michigan baby formula factory that shut down in February claims the Food and Drug Administration still hasn't given them the
green light to restart operations, despite the agency saying it could be back up and running
in two weeks. Abbott Labs revealed Monday that it had entered into a consent decree with the FDA
that creates a pathway to reopen the facility. However, the timeline for operations remains unclear.
After FDA approval, Abbott could restart the site within two weeks,
but from the time of restart, it would take six to eight weeks before product is available on shelves, the company spokesperson told Daily Mail.
Now, the federal regulator, during a media call Monday night,
confirmed it has not yet given its approval,
saying, we are negotiating with Abbott to get them up and running as soon as possible.
Now, the agency has declined to answer questions about the timeline for the Michigan plant's reopening
and instead directed reporters to Abbott.
I think we all know the treachery of giving exact timeframes to get these things done
because as corrections are made and sometimes new things are discovered and sometimes it goes very quickly, FDA Commissioner Robert
Califf said. In other words, I'm not doing nothing right now.
The Biden administration is starving American babies. It is deliberate. They're starving.
Who does this kind of evil?
Evil people. That's who does it.
Wicked evil people.
They are starving American babies.
Yet at the same time, while American the United States have plenty of baby formula.
Yes.
Look, I don't want any baby to go without food.
Border or no border.
Yes.
But their mothers don't belong here.
Simple as that.
They broke the laws by walking across the border. But the Biden
administration has made sure the illegals have plenty of baby formula. There's a Florida
Republican Congresswoman, Kat Kamek, who is livid about this. And she posted some information last week and the leftist news
media went after her and said, it's fake. Don't believe her. She doesn't have any proof that
the Biden administration is stockpiling baby formula in Texas for illegals. So she said,
I'm going to go there myself and get my own photographs. That's right. So a Republican congresswoman took a trip to the U.S.-Mexico border
to expose the stockpiling of baby formula being sent to border facilities
while American families continue to face empty shelves amid a nationwide shortage.
Representative Kat Kamik of Florida was accused of lying about the formula crisis
after she shared photos she was sent by sources last week
showing shelves full of baby formula and food at a processing center at the southern border.
But now the congresswoman has visited and surveyed the facilities herself, finding not only an
amass of formula, but other necessary infant supplies littered across the floor of a warehouse.
We have this appearance by Representative Kamek on Fox Business
with Maria Bartiromo talking about what she saw.
Joining me right now is the Florida congresswoman herself who exposed this at the border. Kat Kamek
is here. She's a member of the Homeland Security and Agricultural Committees. Congressman, thanks
very much for being here. I know Congress is set to take the issue up this week,
but tell us what you saw and react to what you just heard from Buttigieg.
Well, good morning, Maria.
And, you know, yesterday I was on the border myself,
and the facts on the ground are exactly how we have been stating them.
You know, last week I received text messages and photos from Border Patrol agents
showing a stockpile of baby formula,
and there was complete outrage from the White House
and CNN and other liberal outlets
claiming that we were lying.
So I decided to go down myself and film it.
And lo and behold, not only was there stocked warehouses,
but there were multiple stocked warehouses that have been
not only filled with baby formula and diapers and wipes and clothing, but they have been doing this
for months and there's more in route. And this just points again to how out of touch this
administration is. And they could stop this with a simple policy change. And to the Secretary of Transportation's remarks
that they have been on top of this from day one,
that is a lie.
They canceled 43% of this manufacturer's production
with no plan to backfill that market share
that they make up.
So how have they been on top of this?
Because moms for months have been saying
it was getting harder
and harder to find formula. This is just another example of the broken administration that doesn't
know how to govern. Oh, they do know how to govern. They're destroying the nation on purpose,
deliberately. This isn't incompetence. It is a deliberate act to destroy the United States of America, led by Barack Hussein Obama.
He's the man in charge.
Everybody knows that Biden's not in charge.
Guy doesn't even know what he had for lunch today.
He's clueless about what's happening.
Seriously, does anybody believe Biden's in charge?
Do you know one person, do you know one Democrat that believes Joe Biden
is in charge of the White House?
Joe Biden, maybe?
He doesn't know.
Seriously.
Nobody believes Joe Biden
is in charge of anything.
Barack Hussein Obama
is running the country.
Did you hear Elon Musk
comments today?
No.
I forget where he was speaking at.
He said, the voice of the
president is not Joe Biden, but whoever runs the teleprompter. That's right. And so, I mean,
that's a pertinent statement. And sometimes even he can't follow the teleprompter. Joe Biden can't.
So, but it just shows you the, you know, how evil that this current administration is.
It's Obama 2.0.
And they're deliberately starving children in America.
Yes.
It's shocking that this is happening.
But that plant has been deliberately shut down and kept shut down.
And that particular plant, as Representative Kamek said,
what is significant in it supplies 43% of all formula in the
nation.
Well, if you're going to create a baby formula shortage, which one would you shut down?
The biggest one.
That's right. I learned today that there are only about five major manufacturers of baby
formula in the U.S. Abbott has about 42% of market share, and the rest is divided up among the rest.
Now, I would think that if this was a true crisis, Rick, wouldn't we call up the Defense Production Act or something like that in order to meet the crisis of the current situation?
The only conclusion I can come to is they want the crisis.
They do.
They're breaking down society.
Next one is from Financial Times in London. Lloyd Blankfein, former CEO of Goldman Sachs, warns of a, look at this, very, very high
risk of a U.S. recession.
That I would take seriously.
When Lloyd Blankfein says he's worried that there is a double high risk, a very, very high risk of a U.S. recession.
So former Goldman Sachs chief executive Lloyd Blankfein has warned corporate America and U.S.
consumers to be prepared for a recession as the Federal Reserve tightens policy to combat high
inflation. So speaking to CBS News on Sunday, Blankfein, who stepped down as Goldman chief in October 2018
and remains the Wall Street Bank senior chair, said there was a very, very high risk
that the U.S. recession was heading towards a recession.
And so in addition to that, we've got a video clip here.
This is Lloyd Blankfein on CBS's Face the Nation
here this past Sunday, stressing the importance of what he's trying to get across here.
Do you think we're headed towards recession?
We're certainly heading, it's certainly a very, very high risk factor. And there's a, but I,
you know, there's a path. It's a narrow path.
But I think the Fed has very powerful tools.
It's hard to finely tune them.
And it's hard to see the effects of them quickly enough to alter it.
But I think they are responding well.
I think it's definitely a risk.
If I were running a big company, I would be very prepared for it.
If I was a consumer, I'd be prepared for it.
But it's not baked in the cake.
I wish that someone would really come out and say, and there are a few voices out there,
but someone would say the reason why we're having the inflation we have now is we pumped $5 trillion of cash into the economy.
Exactly.
It's the only reason we're having it.
Right.
I mean, what do you expect to happen?
McDonald's is going to charge a dollar more for a hamburger
if you have an extra dollar.
Because they're not going to take ownership
of the mess they created.
No, they can't.
People like us were warning years ago,
going back to 2008,
were warning there's going to be hyperinflation
because of the quantitative easing.
Remember that term, quantitative easing?
You mean pumping money into the economy?
Whoever heard of quantitative easing?
Just like transitory inflation.
Right, it just kind of moves around.
Yeah, so they created this mess, and now people are suffering for their mess, and they're going to make them suffer even more because they're going to jack up the interest rates to shut down the economy to try to bring down the inflation that they caused.
But it's not going to work.
It's not going to work. Why? Because the super progressive socialist Democrats will demand more quantitative easing to give UBI payments to the people who lose their jobs from the high interest rates and who can't make their mortgage payments.
So then that means that the economy is going to come to a screeching halt and inflation is going to continue to go up.
And that is called stagflation.
And this is going to continue to go up. And that is called stagflation. And this is going to last for years.
If you are a believer in Christ
and a giver,
you got to put that giver part.
You can be a believer
and you won't necessarily get the blessings.
You got to be a giver.
You have to be a believer and a giver. You have to be a believer and a giver.
You have to have a generous spirit, a heart that loves to give as gifts unto the Lord that the
gospel goes forth. If you are a believer who is a generous giver, you will go through this
stagflation that's going to hit the world in the next several years this is
going to last several years probably up until 2025 until it starts to write itself uh and that's
assuming we don't have world war three yes but if you are a giver the lord will bless you he'll
take you through it you'll actually come out on top if you're a giver, the Lord will bless you. He'll take you through it. You'll actually come out on top if you're a giver.
So this is a great time.
Those of you who are givers, you're like, yeah, Rick, I know.
I've been doing it for years, and I know what the blessings of the Lord are.
But some of you don't know what it's like to be a giver,
and you don't know what it's like to be blessed.
And I don't know how to tell you other than just do it.
Become a giver.
God will even bless someone who doesn't believe if they give.
Yes.
I don't understand how that works.
But if they give with the intention of being a blessing to somebody else,
not even being a believer, God honors that as faith.
You can see in history men and women who were not born-again Christians
yet were very generous people to society,
and they became prosperous and rich.
It's because God blessed them for their generosity.
They died unsaved.
It's sad.
It's sad. They went to their grave unsaved but during their lifetime they had financial blessing on them
because of their generosity. But how tragic it would be to go
through life as a believer and end up without the
blessing that God had the opportunity to give you because you held
too tightly on to the
pennies and the hand.
That's the other extreme. That's the other extreme. You have people who are saved. And
when they go to their grave, they will be saved. And yet they went through life living
a life of poverty or of lack, of want, because they never learned to be a giver. Because giving requires faith.
Giving requires faith.
Believing that as you give, that it's a blessing to someone else.
Absolutely.
And that you expect a return on it.
Hey, we've got a couple more stories we'll talk about.
CNBC, a severe pilot shortage in the U.S. leaves airlines scrambling for solutions.
Gee, what caused the shortage of pilots?
Well, they're blaming training. They're blaming...
Training?
They didn't have enough of an aggressive recruitment policy. The fact of the matter, you and I
both know why. Because pilots refused to abide by the vaccine mandate.
Yes, and the ones who did, many of them died.
Yes.
And they don't want to talk about it.
That's why there's a pilot shortage.
But who wants to bring up the truth?
Next story, Project Veritas.
Twitter senior engineer
talks Elon Musk takeover
in new undercover video.
Says Twitter does not believe in free speech.
And he says Twitter as a company is a communist organization.
He said, the guy works there.
Yes.
He works there as an engineer.
And he says, this is a communist organization.
It's against free enterprise.
We actually have a small video clip from the latest Project Veritas release,
and you have to keep from blowing up as you watch even this small segment of the interview.
Let's share this right now.
There's a difference between Twitter's definition of free speech and Elon's definition this right now. You know, Jabz is a capitalist. We weren't really operating like capital small. We were very socialist.
Like we're all like commie as. I basically went and worked like four hours a week
past quarter. That's how it works in our company.
Well, Twitter is like everything. Like if you're not feeling it, you can take a few days off.
You can take a month off.
But I don't know if the two parties can truly coexist on one platform.
Well, there's so much
in that particular video clip there.
First of all, you're right.
Twitter doesn't believe in free speech.
I'm not completely sure Elon Musk does either,
but for the sake of argument, I'd say that he does.
How many hours do Twitter employees work?
He worked four hours last week.
I work four hours before I come to work in the morning.
I mean, and that's the truth.
That's the truth.
Doc and I, we're communicating with each other
before the sun comes up. We're both at work with each other before the sun comes up we're
both at work and the sun hasn't come up yet uh and these little
these little lefties all bless their little heart they put in four hours and then they have to get
some mental health for us because they're so stressed from dealing with censoring all those
people who have horrible thoughts.
Now, I have some criticisms of Elon Musk, but I won't criticize him on one thing, and that's his work ethic.
Elon works 80 to 100 hours a week.
I can't keep that pace up, but he works at that.
And he has said Americans are the laziest workers in the world. Just that concept alone, Elon Musk taking
over Twitter and requiring people to show up for work. Well, you know what he's going to do? He's
going to shut down the San Francisco headquarters and move it to Texas or Florida. Right. He'll move
it to a place where people work. Yes. It's not California. Speaking of Florida, this is my last story. This is why we love our
governor, Ron DeSantis. He signed a bill yesterday that bans protesting outside people's homes,
like judges. So lefties in Florida can no longer come to your house and dox you and try to disrupt the neighborhood and
force your, you know, try to intimidate your neighbors so that they will disown you and want
you to move out. That's now illegal in the state of Florida. Thank you, Florida Republican-controlled
legislature. Thank you, Republican Governor Ron DeSantis.
We got a great governor.
We have a video clip of his press conference.
Governor Ron DeSantis has signed a new law that makes it illegal to protest or picket outside a person's home.
The governor pointed to abortion rights protests outside the homes of Supreme Court justices after a leaked draft court opinion that would overturn Roe v. Wade, the 1973 Supreme Court
ruling that legalized abortion in the United States. The bill signed by the governor was
approved by state lawmakers in March and takes effect October 1st. It will make it illegal to
protest outside a person's home with the intent to harass or disturb that person in his or her dwelling.
The new law will allow law enforcement officers to charge people with second-degree misdemeanors
if they do not peacefully disperse after being warned about protesting outside a person's home.
I am an enthusiastic supporter of Ron DeSantis and very grateful to live in the state of Florida and to have him as governor.
And that we have enough legislators in the state that proposed the bill and passed it in both houses here in Florida.
And, Doc, we have some of the best state legislators in the state, and they're right here in Vero Beach.
Yes.
We have some very excellent Christian conservative state legislators in the state, and they're right here in Vero Beach. Yes. We have some very excellent Christian conservative state legislators,
and they live right here in the city of Vero Beach.
That's it for today.
Thank you for watching True News.
Please tell your friends and families about this uncensored newscast.
We've been at it since 1999.
A lot of others are out there just getting started and we wish them well, but we've been
doing it for a long, long time and we give God all the glory and the honor. See you tomorrow.
God bless you.
