This is True News, the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth, so help us God. I'm Rick Wiles. Well, it's Monday, so I'll start today's True News with the first of the week chant, let's have a nuclear war news article. Poland's former foreign affairs minister, who is now an elected member of the European Parliament, told a Ukrainian television channel that Western Europe has the right to arm Ukraine with nuclear warheads. Well, let's see how that idea goes down in Moscow.

Dr. Burkhardt and I have a lot of news to share with you today. So we'll start with the craziest news story of the day. Why not, Doc? Right. Every day, let's have a nuclear war. Right. And now you actually have a member of the European Parliament that's proposing, why

not give Ukraine nuclear weapons. Now, I remember about a month and a half ago joking about that. But now, it's reality. They're actually talking about this now. They just floated the idea. The trial balloon has been floated. Let's see what kind of reaction we get.

And probably a month or two from now, there'll be nukes moving towards Ukraine. Right. This was seen on Twitter today. This was, the West has the right to give Ukraine nuclear warheads to protect its independence, says a member of the European Parliament. And his name is Radoslaw Sikorsky. That's his Twitter handle there. Russia has violated the Budapest Memorandum, and therefore the West can give the Ukraine the opportunity to defend its independence.

Let's skip down here to number two in the Newsweek article. Russia threatens nuclear hit on Poland the rest of the year. Now, if you read that article, you'd say, well, those crazy Russians, they got out of bed this morning and said, let's obliterate Poland and just take out all of Europe. Right. You have to get into the article to see what is prompting this headline. The Russians are responding to this whack jobs suggestion that nato give nukes to ukraine so we'll go up here to 1b the head of russia's well let's see we may have these out it's all right we go with here the head of russia's state duma vladen has warned that if western governments were to provide

kiev with nuclear weapons a nuclear conflict could follow in the heart of Europe and it could disappear. Polish Foreign Minister Wroclaw Sikorski, who is now a member of the European Parliament, reportedly told Ukrainian online television channel Espresso TV that the West has the right to give Ukraine nuclear warheads to protect its independence, as shown in a video shared on Belarusian media outlet Nexta on Twitter. So, of course, he said Western countries would have this right because Russia had violated the Budapest Memorandum on Security Assurances of 1994. And that year, Ukraine agreed to give up all nuclear weapons left in the country after the fall of the Soviet Union

and to join the treaty on the nonproliferation of nuclear weapons. Let me go down here to 2A. Newsweek has contacted Poland's Ministry of Foreign Affairs for comment on Sikorsky's statement, which has not been officially supported by the Polish government. The Polish member of the European Parliament's words reached Russia, where his declaration was met with scorn by Volodin, who leads one of the chambers of the Russian parliament. He goes on to say, Sikorsky provokes a nuclear conflict in the center of Europe. He does not think about the future of either Ukraine or Poland. If his proposals

are implemented, these countries will disappear as well as Europe. He needs to be examined by a psychiatrist, pass the mandate, and stay at home under supervision, Volodin said. Let's keep that up for a second. Does that sound like the Russians said today, hey, we're going to blow up all of Europe. Now it sounds like a crazy guy in the European Parliament from Ukraine said, we want to get our hands on nukes so we can nuke Russia. But Newsweek twisted the story and made the headline appear as the Russia today threatened Europe. And this was made by a Polish member of European Parliament. Yes.

And so, you know, so who's going to provide those nuclear weapons to Ukraine? Well, will Poland provide that through NATO? Now Poland becomes a target. And so the whole idea of this is just ramping up now, Rick. But you see, the Russian, I don't know who Mr. Volodin is, a member of the Russian Duma, but he said, hey, this guy over in Poland needs a psychiatrist. He needs to be examined. This is crazy.

Does he not know that all of Europe will disappear? The Russians are scratching their head. They're like, what is going on with the West? It's like some type of suicide wish. They have to be thinking the West wants to commit mass suicide. They're trying to get us to use nuclear weapons. But to actually come out now and say, why not give nuclear weapons to Ukraine? We want them to win, right? Well, that's the natural end of this, right? I mean, either Ukraine

surrenders, and it looks like things are going bad for Ukraine right now anyway. Did the propagandas run out of stories? They're trying to shift the story now away from Ukraine, and so we'll talk about that later. But, you know, there comes a point in time that if we don't ramp up the weaponry, Ukraine will lose. Right. But if we go up to nukes, everybody loses in that situation. And what did Mr. Kissinger say last month? He had a couple months to solve this.

Right. He didn't say he was going to nuclear war, but he said he's got a couple months. That's a solution. A limited or even unlimited nuclear war would be a solution. And when he said it in May, we said, okay. There's June, July,

somewhere around August. Keep coming back to August. And so they're running out of weapons. They're running. They need more powerful weapons. And, you know, Zelensky is running around the whole world. Last week he was begging Israel.

He wants the Iron Dome. Right. He's pleading with Israel to send him weapons. And so I don't know how a guy runs a country in wartime and travels all over the world making speeches. I don't know how that's done. Oh, well, it's easy to do if you're on Zoom all the time, which seems like he's on all the time.

Yeah. So. I'm surprised the Russians just haven't disconnected his Internet. Oh, maybe they figure Zelensky is Ukraine's worst enemy. Just let him keep talking. Maybe. Because nobody's really enthusiastic about supporting Ukraine now, are they? He wasn't that funny as a comedian.

He's not very funny as a president either. And do you notice, Rick, that not as many people have Ukrainian flags up anymore, especially online, social media? I know you're not on social media. No, but I drove through a neighborhood here in Vero Beach last week, and just about every other mailbox had a Ukrainian flag. I was shocked. Standing with Ukraine, I have no idea what they're doing. They're watching Fox News and they're watching CNN and they got all the propaganda,

all the Western propaganda. And, you know, the American people have no idea what this is all about. Same Americans who were fighting the COVID propaganda have swallowed the Ukraine war propaganda, and they don't even realize it's the same people who gave it to you.

It's the very same. Okay, so the next one is, this is from the Vasty News Service, number three. Russia can turn off the United States with one decision. Now, that got my attention today. Yeah, I thought it was going to be a strike of some kind, maybe EMP. Yeah, I thought it was going to be a strike of some kind, maybe an EMP. Yeah, I thought it was going to be like EMP, but that's not what it means. No. It says, if Russia stops supplying enriched uranium to U.S. energy companies, the U.S.

could face consequences for reactor operations. Matt Bowen and Paul Dabber, research fellows at the Center for Global Energy Policy at Columbia University, write in an article for The Hill. This could lead to a shutdown of reactors, and given that nuclear energy accounts for more than 20 percent of generating capacity in some parts of the country, electricity prices will jump even above today's inflation, the publication says. Now, Rick, first of all, I didn't know we were getting our uranium from Russia. Oh, yeah.

Hillary Clinton, remember that deal she brokered? Remember the uranium deal that Hillary Clinton had her hands on? Oh, she made a boatload of money on that thing. That's right. I do recall that. Yeah, nobody wants to talk about it. Well, the authors remind that many reactors operating in the U.S. and the E.U. are manufactured by Russia, which supplies components for them,

and if the conflict between Moscow and the West continues, many nuclear power plants will be forced to suspend work. Okay, so we've got two things. Uranium and reactors. And the parts. The parts for the reactors. That could put the hurt on the USA. Yeah, imagine a 20, well, it'd be more than 20% because it would disrupt the flow of energy around the country. But think of a 20% hike in your electric bill

on top of what you're already experiencing right now. If you got your latest electric bill, you probably noticed a difference between this month and last month. It's not going to be a 20% hike. No, it'll be much more. It'll be a massive hike. If those nuclear power plants are shut down, first of all, you just don't push stop button on a nuclear power plant.

There's a long process involved. But if the Russians just push stop on the export of uranium, it's going to throw the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission into a tailspin. Because they're going to have to issue emergency orders to all nuclear power plants in the country to either shut down or curtail.

So you'd have uranium rationing. That's what would be coming, uranium rationing. And most likely, each plant would get a percentage of the available uranium. But where are we gonna get it? Who do you go to for, you know, your knockoff version of uranium? Right. Where do you go to? North Korea? I just assumed we produced all of our own uranium here.

We don't do much of anything. In our own reactor. The globalists dismantled us, Doc, over the past 30 years. They destroyed the foundation of this country. They moved everything out. We used to be a self-sufficient nation. We're not anymore.

So in essence, Russia could stop the flow of uranium, could stop the flow of reactors and parts. It'd be like a soft EMP, wouldn't it? Mm-hmm. of reactors and parts, it'd be like a soft EMP, wouldn't it? And how about China controls the metals, the rare earth metals. We can't even make weapons. We can't make ammo. There's parts in military equipment that requires rare earth minerals from China. What if China just says, we're done. We're not sending any more.

And they very well could. Yes. And China and Russia together, they'd be putting sanctions on the U.S. Suddenly we wouldn't be a fan of sanctions anymore, would we? That's right. So life is going to get hard here in the USA

in the coming months. This is not a prophecy. It's just my own gut feeling. I think you and I have the rest of June, July, August, maybe September to stockpile food, supplies, things that we need. I'd get canning jars and lots of lids. Basic things that you need. I mean, the basic things. You're going to have to go back to living

and some of you are like, oh, you live that way now anyhow. That's okay. That's good. But a lot of other people are going to have a major adjustment to life. We've gotten used to living good in America. Doc, you grew up in the country.

I did. If we went back to the way we lived when we were kids, eh, wasn't that hard? Think about it. Wasn't that hard? We didn't go without. No. So we didn't have air conditioning. So what? We grew our food in the garden. We had to can food. We had to take care of ourselves.

Okay, that's the way it was. A lot of us are going to go back to that. But a lot of people are in no way prepared for that. They're not prepared for it, and that's where the disorder is going to be in the cities. Okay? You're going to see all kinds of disruption. You've got a Supreme Court decision coming very, very soon, within days or a week or two.

I mean, we're now in the middle of June. Right. I mean, I would say within one to 14 days, we're going to have a Supreme Court decision on abortion. The left is going to go berserk, totally berserk, if the Supreme Court does what everybody thinks it's going to do. Yeah, the left's going to go crazy.

They've already tried to kill a judge, a Supreme Court judge. Think about this. A leftist tried to kill a Supreme Court judge, and days later, the Democrat-controlled House of Representatives voted down a bill to supply security to Supreme Court justices. Right. Okay? Because they want them killed. They want them killed, Doc. That's how radical we've become here.

So we're going to see some very turbulent times in the United States. And you're down your remaining months to get things in place. And then you just, hey, buckle seatbelt. Here we go. And we're going to make it. We're going to make it. You and I, we're going to make it. You know why? Our faith is in God.

Our faith is in God. Amen. We're going to make it. You and I, we're going to make it. You know why? Our faith is in God. Our faith is in God. We're going to make it. The righteous don't beg for bread. The righteous bake bread. The righteous don't beg for bread. The righteous bake bread. And we give it to others. You and I do okay. So don't be worried, but be wise and be prepared. Get ready. This next one, a few more stories on what's going on with Russia and Ukraine. Number six, Russia strikes a depot in western Ukraine as battle for key Donbass city rages on.

And what's significant about this is the number of EU and US weapons were purportedly destroyed in the strike. Russian forces said Sunday they had struck a site in western Ukraine storing US and EU supplied weapons as the battle intensified for the key eastern city of Severodonetsk. The strike on the town of Chortkiv, a rare attack by Russia in the relatively calm west of Ukraine, left 22 people injured, the regional governor said. Russia's defense ministry said the strike on Chortkiv destroyed a large depot of anti-tank missile systems, portable air defense systems, and shells provided to the Kiev regime by the U.S. and European countries.

What's significant about this is that Russia is directly striking the supply chain of weapons coming out of Poland, and they know where it is, and they're making those strikes. Russia has virtually stayed out of western Ukraine to this point, but they do strike at key facilities that they believe are supplying the weapons to what's going on in eastern Ukraine. There's also a ferocious battle between the Russian military and the Azov Nazi troops in that city. So whenever you hear and read stories in Western news about, you know, savage fighting by the

Russians, they're raping the women, they're chopping off the heads, I mean, it's just savage fighting by the Russians. They're raping the women. They're chopping off the heads. I mean, it's just been horrendous propaganda stories. The truth is, whenever you read this stuff, what's going on is that there is ferocious fighting taking place between the Russian army and the Nazis, the Azov brigades.

And the Russians are doing exactly what they said they were going to do. They're killing the Nazis. End of discussion. That's what they're doing. That's their special operation. We ought to be cheering the Russian military for killing the Nazis. When did it become fashionable to be on the side of the Nazis? I missed something here, Doc.

I missed something. Where was the change? Did I not get the memo? What happened? Well, Rick, as early as a year ago, major publications in the U.S., like the New York Times and the Washington Post, they were criticizing the Azov Battalion

because of its connections to neo-Nazism. But now that we're in it, to win it... Now, patriotism in America is to cheer the Nazis. That's right. But I don't want to be patriotic now. If American patriotism is defending the Nazis, then I can't be an American patriot. Because they've switched the meaning of patriotism.

I'm not backing Nazis. And the people that are backing Ukraine are supporting the Nazis. You can't explain this to people. They just don't get it. They're watching Fox News. You've got to kill Russia. You've got to kill, you've got to destroy Russia.

And even when you show the connection between the Azov Battalion and others and Nazi symbols and everything. It doesn't matter. They can't digest. They can't comprehend it. Because they've been programmed by the news media and the politicians. The next one, okay, this is number eight, CBS News. Nicaragua gives permission for Russian troops to enter the country. Let's see, where is Nicaragua located?

That is Central America. That's right. Folks, do you see what that says? A Central American country has officially given permission to the Russian military to come in and set up shop in Central America. Thank you, Joe Biden. Thank you, America's ruling class. Thank you, the CFR, for the mess you have made.

Now we have Russian troops in Central America. So the government of Nicaragua and President Daniel Ortega has authorized Russian troops, planes, and ships to deploy to Nicaragua for purposes of training, law enforcement, or emergency response. In a decree published this week and confirmed by Russia on Thursday, Ortega will allow Russian troops to carry out law enforcement duties, humanitarian aid, rescue and search missions in emergencies or natural disasters. The Nicaraguan government has also authorized the presence of small contingents of Russian troops for the exchange of experiences and training.

Now, Russia's foreign ministry spokeswoman, Maria Zakharova, told the Russian news outlet Sputnik that the measure was routine. We're talking about a routine, twice a year, procedure for the adoption of a Nicaraguan law on the temporary admission of foreign military personnel to its territory in order to develop cooperation in various areas, including humanitarian and emergency responses, combating organized crime and drug trafficking.

That sounds like the same thing the U.S. does to nations in Central and South America. Well, if the same thing the U.S. does to nations in Central and South America. Well, if they're going to combat organized crime and drug trafficking, they will be fighting the U.S.A. Right. Now, what came to my mind, Doc, is back in the 90s, the Ukrainian, not Ukrainian, a Romanian pastor, Dimitru Dudaman, traveled all through America speaking to churches and organizations, warning them that he had had a number of visions from

the Lord and he saw war coming to America. One of those recurring messages in those visions, this is 1990s, he listed the countries that would be involved in the invasion of the United States of America and Nicaragua was one of them. And back in the 90s a lot of people were just like that's so far fetched, Nicaragua. Why would they be involved in an attack on America? Well, we just saw a story today. A country just now has

given legal permission to the Russian military to come and set up their facilities. And haven't we essentially pushed Ortega into Russia's arms? Of course we did. Because we've put sanctions on him. Why? Why can't we just be at peace with these countries?

Because peace doesn't make money, right? I know that. It doesn't make money. Oh, by the way, talking about peace doesn't make money, Macron today shifted the French economy to a war economy. He used the words war economy. Okay, what war are they in? That's what I wanted to know. Who are the French fighting? The Russians. They know they've already entered World War III. So he issued some decrees today

announcing that the French economy had switched to a war economy. Folks, World War III is underway. It just hasn't reached the nuke exchange phase yet. That's the end of the war. But we're in World War III right now. But let's move to the next phase of World War III. And Vladimir Zelensky, the president of Ukraine, obviously trying to gin up

more support for himself, notices that there isn't the enthusiasm for Ukraine like there used to be. So now he's calling for international support for Taiwan before China attacks. Oh, so Mr. Zelensky, he's got so much time on his hands now that he can stir up a war with Taiwan and China and the United States. Right. So while appealing to Asian nations for support to fend off Russia's invasion on Saturday, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky said the international community should help Taiwan resist China's aggression now

before Beijing attacks the island democracy it claims as its own province. The comments risk upsetting Ukraine's delicate balancing act with China. Nevertheless, Zelensky insisted that aggressors must be confronted wherever they emerge. In other words, he got the memo from NATO. Asian countries must not wait for the crisis to act on Taiwan's behalf, which would be repeating the mistake Europe made before Russian President Vladimir Putin's attack on Ukraine. And so now we're starting to see this shift in the theaters, if you will. Another article, I'm sorry, Rick. No, no, no, go ahead. The Hill, the Ukraine war shows how we must

prepare for hostilities in Taiwan. So this is an article in The Hill today, Rick. Came up today. So we have all, it's like they all got the same script out there, Rick. So as the tragic war in Ukraine continues, both our friends and competitors on the world stage are watching and learning. One obvious lesson is that America's approach to protecting Taiwan from China's aggression needs adjusting. Congress should use the 2023 budget to change course by fully funding ground force modernization and a deterrent strategy that protects Taiwan and U.S. national security

interests across the globe. Translation, if we do that, China will respond to that. Absolutely. That's right. New York Times, as China rattles the sabers, Taiwan asks, are we ready for war? Now, what's significant in that is that it points out Ukraine's stubborn resistance to invasion, and the help that has poured in as a result, that's important, has both inspired Taiwan and made it rethink its own military strategy. Now, think about this for a minute, Rick. How much money has Ukraine pulled in here in the past six months? Ukraine? Yes.

Enough to keep the Biden family wealthy for years. Now, you've got to know that Taiwan is looking at that and considering that. Do you think Hunter Biden gets a percentage of all the Western money that is coming in? I'm very serious. And does the big guy get some? Barack Obama? Not his dad does the big guy get some? Barack Obama? Not his dad, the big guy. Yes.

His dad's not the big guy. There's a lot of money. And there's a lot of money to be made on Taiwan as well. There was a story last week that White House insiders told, I forget which news outlet it was that reported it. This came from White House Insiders, that Joe Biden's number one most influential advisor is Hunter. That's true. I saw that article as well.

He's still communicating with him, still getting advice from him. Well, we're shipping weapons and money, billions and billions of dollars to Ukraine. Despite the fact that there are... Is Hunter getting some of the money? Yes, despite the fact that there is, I mean, verifiable connections with the Biden family to Ukraine. But the mainstream media doesn't look at that. I wonder if the Russians have blown up the DNC servers yet. I hope they don't blow them up.

I hope they capture them. And then we could finally see Hillary's emails. Wouldn't it be a riot? Wouldn't it be a riot if the Russians captured the DNC servers and Hillary's emails? What was it, 30,000 missing emails? What if they're in Kiev? I believe they are. I can't prove it.

My gut tells me that. Wouldn't it be a riot if the Russians had it and they released it? That would be a story, wouldn't it? A story that would never get reported in the USA. The next one, Bloomberg, China alarms U.S. with private warnings to avoid the Taiwan Strait. And just as Russia warned NATO and the U.S. about further escalation in Ukraine,

now China is issuing its own warnings trying to head off a potential conflict. Chinese military officials in recent months have repeatedly asserted that the Taiwan Strait isn't international waters during meetings with U.S. counterparts, according to a person familiar with the situation, generating concern within the Biden administration. The statement disputing the U.S. view of international law has been delivered to the American government by Chinese officials on multiple occasions and at multiple levels, the person said. The U.S. and key allies say much of the strait constitutes international waters, and they routinely send naval vessels through the waterway as part of freedom of navigation

exercises. It's not clear whether the recent assertions indicate that China will take more steps to confront naval vessels that enter transit into the Taiwan Strait. The U.S. also conducts freedom and navigation operations in the South China Sea to challenge Chinese territorial claims around disputed land features. Now, during a speech on Saturday at the ISS Shangri-La Dialogue in Singapore, Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin warned that China was unilaterally attempting to change the status quo when it comes to Taiwan. Our policy hasn't changed, he said, but unfortunately that doesn't seem to be true for the People's Republic of China. Now, Austin's speech was followed on Sunday by China's Minister of National Defense, Wei Feng, who repeatedly expressed Beijing's willingness to fight to prevent a formal split

by the democratically elected government in Taipei. And if anyone dares, this is what he said. The Chinese official said, if anyone dares to succeed Taiwan from China, we will not hesitate to fight. Reaffirming Beijing's longstanding position on the dispute, we will fight at all costs, and we will fight to the very end. This is the only choice for China.

That man is China's minister of defense. Right. He's Lloyd Austin's counterpart. And so this was a direct tête-en-tête conversation here between the U.S. Defense Minister and the Chinese Defense Minister.

We're laying the line down, just like we did for NATO and Ukraine and to the Russians. And we got the Russians to a point where they said, enough is enough. We're done. We are done. And the Chinese are moving there pretty fast. Right. Because you can

sense the frustration in the statements by the Chinese. They're talking about war too. Where in the past the Chinese were reluctant to say that three letter word. They've been saying it lately. We're going to switch topics to war which is

the, I mean not war, we're going to switch topics to war, which is the, I mean, not war. We're going to switch topics from war to the economy, which is the real reason we're going to have a war. Right. Because the Western economic system is collapsing because of a century of mismanagement and fiat currencies and debt and government borrowing. We've got ourselves in a situation now that we can't get out of. And so the best thing to do is blow up a bunch of countries. Right.

Okay? And the winner gets to decide the new economic system. That's really what it's coming down to. So we'll take a look at stuff that was happening in the economy today. Bloomberg, Wall Street floats 100 basis point Fed hike as inflation stings. Right. This has shook up a lot of people today, Donald. And it showed up in the markets today.

Pockets of Wall Street are raising the possibility that the Federal Reserve could go to extreme lengths on Wednesday and attempt to control the hottest U.S. inflation in four decades. Now, while the consensus expectation for the U.S. central bank's interest rate increase at this week's meeting is a half percentage point, higher-than-expected consumer price index data last Friday prompted two banks, Barclays and Jefferies, to revise their calls for the potential of 75 basis points. Now, some are suggesting a full percentage hike is on the table. All right. So what do we have here? Last month, the speculation was the Fed would increase interest rates by half a percent. Then a couple weeks ago, speculation, well, even up to this past week, three-quarters of a percent.

Top. Yep. Today, it's a full 1% hike coming on Wednesday. Now, the baloney coming out of the Fed and the politicians and the economists and the news media is, oh, the economy's red hot. Yes. It's red hot. Oh, we got to pull the brake and slow it down. It's red hot.

No, it's not red hot. The inflation is the result of reckless fiscal policies of the Federal Reserve and the drunken Congress. That's the reason we've been printing money. All right. You know, my favorite, you know, saying, like a baboon on crack. And now, after trillions and trillions and trillions of funny dollars going into the market since 2008, now the chickens are coming home to roost, is what many of us said. People, Peter Schiff, Ron Paul,

many, many men that have sound financial understanding. They warned us this is going to happen. Nobody wanted to listen to them. Their voices were drowned out. Here we are now. The inflation is here and their voices are still drowned out. And we're being told this baloney that the economy is red hot and the Fed's going to have to hit the brakes and just slow it down.

No, the Fed caused it. And now the Fed is going to throw the economy into a tailspin. And then millions of people will be put out of work over the next six months, but they're going to be in trouble because the politicians are going to say, we have to have increased unemployment benefits. We have to have universal basic income. Well, you're going to have to print more funny money and then the inflation will keep, see, there's no end to it. The only way to solve it is, how about return to a gold standard?

How about take fiscal policy and monetary policy away from the Federal Reserve? How about we just abolish the Federal Reserve? You know, founding fathers gave us the mechanism to manage our currency. away from the Federal Reserve, how about we just abolish the Federal Reserve? You know, the Founding Fathers gave us the mechanism to manage our currency and our economy. It's called the United States Treasury. Right. And the Congress mints the currency. It was all constitutional, but it was all overthrown in 1913. And we got the Federal Reserve, and

we got the IRS and the income tax, and we got debt, and the country has gone down the toilet bowl. It's been happening for many, many decades. We're now at the place the globalists know they've wrecked it. So what are they going to do? They're going to start a nuclear war. Right. That's their solution. Let's just blow it up. Let's just nuke somebody. Last man standing gets to start the new system.

That's their system. They're psychopaths. Like Gerald Salente is fond to say, they're psychopaths. That's not name calling. They're psychopaths. That's not name-calling. They're psychopaths. They're crazy. Anybody that wants to do this to humanity,

crazy, and yet they're in power. And so here we go. The economy is spinning around. Just folks get ready for it. It is happening right now. It's in motion. Again, if you're a saint of God, you're a giver, your faith is in

the Lord, you don't have to be afraid. You will make adjustments, but you'll be the head and not the tail. You'll be baking bread. You won't be begging bread. That's the promise of the Lord. I don't fear economic trouble. I can deal with it, and I'll make adjustments in my lifestyle, but I am not going to have fear. I am going to put my trust and my faith in the Lord. And, in fact, he says that we're the head, not the tail. Amen. If you put your faith in him and listen to him and seek him early in the morning, he'll tell you things to do. He'll give you instructions.

He'll give you inventions. He'll give you ideas. He'll show you how to buy things at pennies on the dollar. He'll show you businesses to start. He'll show you things to invent. The Lord's people will be blessed. So don't let this economic storm frighten you if you are a saint of God. Now if you're not a saint of God you're in trouble. I sell there still. You're in trouble.

It's going to be bad. So you might want to switch over and join the Lord's team right now and become a giver. Get your name on the book of life. Get your name on the book of life. Get your sins forgiven. Get all that taken care of. Get baptized. Get saved. And then become a giver so that the Lord can be a giver to you. See, if you're a giver to him,

he's a giver to you. How do you give to God? You finance ministries and churches that preach the true gospel so that souls are saved. You take care of widows and orphans. You're merciful to the poor and hungry.

That's how you give. When you give money to a poor person, I'm not talking some beggar out there, you know, scamming people, you know, refusing to work. I'm talking about somebody that legitimately is poor. When you give money to a poor person, the Bible says you lend to the Lord, and he surely repays with interest. So it's a win-win deal. I mean, imagine, God owes you money.

That's what it says, Doc. It does. When you give money to the poor, God owes you money, and he pays it with interest. Yes. So learn the principles of the kingdom. As long as we're on this earth, we're going to live by the principles of the kingdom. Either you're in the world's economic system or you're in God's economic system. You can't straddle it.

You've got to be in one or the other. And the world's economic system is going down. It's going to be hard, hard, hard for a lot of people. But God's system is just smooth. It just hums along. You don't have to worry about it. We're going to show you some of the other things happening. Bitcoin plunged today.

This is Wall Street Journal. Plunged below 23,000. What's interesting about this particular story, Rick, is the crypto lender Celsius. A lot of people got on board with Celsius early on. Basically, you could buy on the margin kind of a little bit with Celsius early on basically you could you know you know buy on the margin kind of a little bit with Celsius and the Celsius when they first opened up they had the guaranteed it's your money you can access at any time you can uh don't what your money is safe and your investments are safe with Celsius

and then Celsius halted trading today halted withdrawals from its accounts. So it doesn't matter what they say. It's what they do that really tells the tale. Doc, weeks ago, my son Jeremy, I asked him, where's crypto, where's Bitcoin going? And he said, Dad, I think what we're going to see is Bitcoin get down to $22,000, and that's going to be the bottom in this cycle for Bitcoin. I talked to him today. He said, I'm now thinking it's going to $12,000. Really?

Yeah. Because he had told me a month or two ago, don't buy anything until Bitcoin gets to 22,000. Today, he said, hold off. It's going to 12. That's interesting. What boggles my mind is how both crypto and gold are dropping right now. That's natural.

Stock market, crypto and gold. Gold is going to be going down right now. I would think it would be going up. People would be wanting to hedge on that. People are selling their precious metals for cash. All right, that makes sense then. That's human psychology. They just lost a boatload of money in the stock market today. Right. SELLING THEIR PRECIOUS METALS FOR CASH. ALL RIGHT, THAT MAKES SENSE THEN. THAT'S HUMAN PSYCHOLOGY. THEY JUST LOST A BOATLOAD OF MONEY

IN THE STOCK MARKET TODAY. RIGHT. CRYPTO'S TAKING A HIT. SO THEY'RE SELLING THEIR PRECIOUS METALS TO GET CASH, OKAY? AND YOU WANT TO BE LONG IN CASH RIGHT NOW. HAVE AS MUCH CASH ON HAND AS YOU CAN. EVEN THOUGH INFLATION IS DEVALUING CASH EVERY SINGLE DAY. You want to be long in cash right now, have as much cash on hand as you can. Even though inflation is devaluing cash every single day.

That's because you need cash right now. Right. You want to have cash. Altcoins, they will go down. I don't know where they're at right now from the high at the top of the market that we just came out of, but altcoins will eventually bottom out at 95% below.

That big of a drop. A crash of 95%. You don't want to be selling your altcoins right now unless you bought them so cheap that you're still ahead. Right. Okay? If not, just hold on. And go long.

And go for the ride because it's going to the bottom, 95% drop in altcoins, and you might have to wait a couple years for the cycle to come back. But this is don't, I'm not giving it. We're just having a conversation. Yeah, I'm not having, because I don't want someone to say I'm giving financial advice. I'm not giving financial advice. I'm talking to Doc.

Right. Okay. Doc, I wouldn't buy altcoins right now. I wouldn't buy any crypto right now. They're still falling. Okay. It's still falling. It's still falling. It's got a long way to go. Scoop

it up when it's at the very bottom. Not even at 85%. That looks like a bargain when it gets to 85%. Don't buy at 90%. Yeah, that's a tough decision to make.

You've got to have nerves of steel until it gets to 95%. A lot. That's where you buy. A lot of inner fortitude on that. And then hold and wait for the next wave, the next cycle. Personally, I would tell you,

if I do any investing again in crypto, I'm sticking 100% with just Ethereum and Solano. Last cycle, I had a whole bunch of stuff. It was like I won some, I lost some. At the end, I came out ahead, but it was like going to Vegas. Not going to do that again. I came out okay. Came out okay. Helped buy a house, but not going to do that again.

I'm going to do Ethereum and Solano, and that's it. Once again. Not even Bitcoin. And once again, you're not giving financial advice. No, I'm just talking to you. Right. If you want to know what I'm going to do. I did want to know. All right.

And you don't want to get in debt right now. That's the biggest way to win, is to make sure you're not in debt. Don't get in debt. Don't take out any debt right now. Build up your cash reserves. And the way you know that that trend is picking up now, credit card companies are offering extensions on your credit limit. Offering you extensions.

Not withdrawing it, but offering it right now. Right. Because they make money on your debt. Yes. And have you noticed payday loan companies are doing commercials again? drawing it, but offering it right now. Right. Because they make money on your debt. Yes. And have you noticed payday loan companies are doing commercials again? Oh, no. So they're back in business.

Right. So they're, you know, when you see this, you know that they're already, that people live on such a margin now anyway that a couple hundred bucks, you may not think that's a big deal to borrow just to get you through the payday,

but that couple hundred could turn into $1,000 really quick. I think car prices are going to drop. I believe so, too. They skyrocketed last year. The best time to buy a used car was in 2020, early 2021. It was at the bottom. And now used prices went through the roof. But I think you're going to see used car prices crash again.

The interest rates are going up so high. Right. It's going to become very expensive to buy a used car. And if you think the Federal Reserve on Wednesday, if they raise it 1%, they'll probably do it again next month. I know we're kind of getting off the topic here a bit, but have you noticed the car companies now

on electric vehicles, they're offering you 10-year loans? No. 10-year loans to purchase a vehicle. Wow. You know you're paying for a vehicle three times in ten years, no matter what the interest rate is. A car loan for ten years.

On a vehicle that maybe will last five. Mm-hmm. So anyway. Don't do it right now. Take my money. Don't get in debt. Well, going back to global economics here, the article out of Bloomberg here today, Japan, now, you've got to watch this because this might be our future very soon.

Look at that headline. Japan's starting to crack? Japan's starting to crack as yen tumbles with stocks and bonds. What do you mean it's starting to crack? Well, Rick, Japan has continued to infuse currency into its economy. Even when other Western countries and Asian companies stopped doing it, they continued to pump money into their economy. So when it says it's starting to crack, it means their determination to keep printing yen. To keep the engine running.

So they realize they're going to have to stop quantitative easing and go the reverse. Right, and restrict money, take money out of the system. With the yen at a 24-year low, Tokyo's stock's down the most since March, and bond yields hitting its ceiling. The Bank of Japan is under duress, having to defend a policy that the rest of the world is quickly moving on from. In his clearest warning yet on the yen's weakness,

Bank of Japan Governor Hirohiko Kuroda said Monday that the recent abrupt slide of the currency is bad for the economy, while the central bank reinforced efforts to keep a lid on yields. Still, the yen fell 0.6% to $135.19 per dollar, the lowest since 1998. Now, this downward pressure on the yen and the slide in Japanese government bonds was triggered by a new wave of selling in global debt markets led by treasuries, as investors shocked by Friday's's u.s inflation data priced in aggressive policy tightening by the federal reserve and sought refuge in the dollar did you notice how the biden administration released those shocking inflation numbers on friday right

so that everybody would forget about it over the weekend and nobody's talking about it on monday right you won't talk about it until you go to the grocery store and the gas pump. Right. Doc, what came out on Friday shocked a lot of people. The inflation, we are going into... Yeah, 8.6%. We're headed towards Zimbabwe, okay? Post-World War I Germany.

This is runaway inflation caused by the Federal Reserve and reckless, idiotic politicians who have spent us into bankruptcy as a nation. The next story, Business Insider, Starbucks CEO Howard Schultz says, I'll get on my knees and beg my employees, would you please, please, please just come to work? This story just gets me. Rick shared it with me earlier this morning. He said, despite doing everything, everything to get employees to come back to the office, Starbucks CEO Howard Schultz says they're not returning at the level he wants. Speaking at the New York Times Dealbook Policy Forum in Washington, D.C. on Thursday, Schultz, who returned as interim CEO in April after Kevin Johnson stepped down from the role, said swaying staffers away from remote work and back to the office hasn't been productive. He says, I have been unsuccessful despite everything I tried to do to

get our people back to work. I've pleaded with them. I said, I'll get on my knees. I'll do push-ups, whatever you want. Come back. He continued, no, they are not coming back to the level I want them to. And you know, we're a very collaborative, creative group. I realize I'm an old school person and this is a different generation. Well, Mr. Schultz, you should just do something an old school person would do. Stop sending the money. Yes. Just cut off the money to these little snowflakes and just say, if you don't get your butt in here

and get to work, you don't get any money. It makes sense to me. I don't understand what the conflict is with Howard Schultz. I mean... He has to coddle these people. Why? Because that's the culture that we have today. You coddle people.

Won't you please come to work? They're sending the money but they don't come to work. Why would you go to work if you're sending the money? You created this entitlement mentality. That you can stay at home. You can do whatever you want at home. No supervision. No collaboration with others except over a video screen. Doc, my son Jeremy told me

that one, you know, he's a businessman and he does he has employees who work remotely. Right. Okay. And he told me that one of the biggest problems that businesses are having right now with remote workers. I know where you're going with it.

They're catching people working three, four, and five full-time jobs and scamming all five employers, getting paid full-time salaries from four to five employers, and they're scamming them. Right. I absolutely believe that. And that impacts the employment numbers nationwide. Because right now, how do we have the highest unemployment in 40 years? I mean, the highest inflation in 40 years and the lowest unemployment. Something is not right in that picture. And the reason why is people are remote working several jobs at the same time. Once they start returning back to work or they start getting fired for not showing back up to work, I believe that's going to reveal a whole lot of stuff that's going on. And then you have

situations like Twitter. Remember the interview that- So they worked, what, four hours a week? Four hours a week because of health and wellness issues and stuff like that. And that was all coming out because of Elon Musk demanding information about Twitter. I got a reputation from some former employees that I'm not easy to work for. If you don't work. And that's one way. If you don't work, I'm not easy. That's one way to get on the bad side.

I'm not easy to work for if you don't work. And I'm pretty tough on them. They can leave and go bad mouth me all they want, but it's because they didn't work. Or if you work another job, why are you working this one? Yeah, I've caught people doing that here. That's the truth. I've caught people working here full time, and we call them in the act of working another job.

Here, in the building? Yes. You have no idea what people do. But if you're a businessman, you know it. You know it. You're a businessman or a businesswoman, you're already, yeah, Rick, I've called them, know exactly what you're dealing with.

The morality level of people today is unbelievably low. Just disgustingly low. Hey, somebody sent a text to me over the weekend involving Starbucks. And I did, I probably should have showed it. It was a guy with three coffee cups. All right, so Starbucks has tall.

Right. What's the middle? I think grande and venti. Grande and venti. Tall. All right, grande and venti. All right, small, medium, large. He took the small cup, filled it up with coffee to the top,

poured it into the medium, the grande, it filled it to the top. Took the medium, poured it into the vente, filled it to the top. Doc, if that video is real, then Starbucks has formed the cups to hold the exact same amount of fluid. Oh.

Which is unjust weights and measures. Yes. And Mr. Schultz should know about that, wouldn't he? Right. And what God says about it. If he's a fan of the Old Testament. Yeah, and what does God say about it? It's an abomination to him.

Right. It's not just something God gets a little miffed about. No, it's an abomination to him. Right. It's not just something God gets a little miffed about. No, it's an abomination to him. It's cheating. All right. So I'll find it. We'll show it. Well, Rick.

We have to go down to Starbucks tomorrow and buy three cups of coffee. You have to? They burn the coffee down there. No, just go down and get it. And then we'll do it ourselves. All right. We'll have to have a tall, medium, and large, and we'll see if it really works. The next one, this is News Australia.

I thought about you when I saw this article. Oh, man, I got to shake this morning when I read this. New shortage hits supermarket shelves as crop hits hit by drought. Right. Sriracha. Yes. Oh, my. Sriracha.

What are we going to do? So spicy food lovers are in for a shock as an unprecedented shortage is hitting one of the world's most popular hot sauces. Devotees of sriracha sauce swear it tastes good on pretty much anything, and it does, from pizza to popcorn. But they may be forced to go cold turkey. And it's good on cold turkey, too. That's right. In the coming months, unless they've stocked up already. It's all because Hufong Foods, a California maker of the cult product made from sun-ripened

chilies, has warned of a major shortage of its products. We can confirm there is an unprecedented shortage of our product, the company said in a statement, adding that the issues were caused by several spiraling events, including unexpected crop failure from the spring chili harvest. Now, in an email to customers, the company described a pepper shortage as severe and related to the climate. Its sources and peppers from various farms in California, New Mexico, and Mexico said that weather conditions were affecting the quality of the peppers. Okay, so you go to your local store, get all the sriracha that's on the shelves, hold on to it, and sell it for four times the price

because pepper heads will pay any price for pepper sauce. But it's another example of the shortages. Now, this next video, you know, look, I don't speak Russian, so I have to assume that the translation is accurate. I mean, they could be talking

about chihuahuas. I mean, you know. I hadn't considered that, but you're right. I mean, you know. I hadn't considered that, but you're right. I just thought about it. We're showing this video. We don't really know if this video

is an accurate translation. So if you speak Russian, if this isn't, if this translation isn't real, tell us. Because, you know what? Because people lie. People put videos out on the Internet that are fake.

What is this? Why do people do this? Isn't there enough lying in the world that people have to add more lies? Well, but the truth of what the conversation is about in the video's accurate. So let's just assume that these two Russian women are really saying these words, because if they didn't, they should have. Let's watch. Все эксперты мира предрекают, что Америка уже через какое-то время, к осени, она потеряет всякий абсолют, она обезводит. Уже ее доллар никому... Экономика рухнет.

Рухнет экономика. Этот доллар уже никому не нужен, он за него ничего не... Это простая бумага. Да, а вот рубль, советский рубль и российский сегодня рубль, вот рубль, он подкреплен абсолютно полностью. Он подкреплен газом, нефтью, запасами воды, зерном и все прочее, прочее. И весь мир будет дружить у нас с Россией, потому что рубль станет золотым. Он подкреплен. А это бумажки сегодня долларовые, которые надо просто разорвать, сжечь и забыть за них.

Все, их как не было. То есть вы предрекаете рублю стать новой резервной валютой? Абсолютно верно. И мы говорим сейчас, что именно рубль победит. Именно рубль победит во всем. And we say right now that it is the ruble that will win. It is the ruble that will win in everything. Because it is behind the ruble stands all the wealth of all Russia and the whole world. And all the nether. And all absolutely. The ruble will win.

The ruble. Joe Biden and Nancy Pelosi. All right. We're going to finish it with some comments from Kim.com. This is a tweet he put out over the weekend. He said, this may be the most important threat I ever make. Big picture stuff about a major global collapse that's coming. I'll try to help you understand why the future is not what we're hoping for. It's worse than most can imagine. Our leaders know, but what are they planning? This is an article from Forbidden Knowledge, where Kim.com breaks down the true scale of U.S. government debt. He says, so even if the U.S. could sell all assets at the current value, which is impossible, it would still be broke.

This is where the great reset comes in. And he asks, is it a controlled demolition of the global markets and the world as we know it? A shift into a new dystopian future where the elites are the masters of the slaves without the cosmetics of democracy. He notes how the world has changed so much in recent years and how nothing seems to make sense anymore. He sees the blatant corruption and the obvious gaslighting propaganda media and the erosion of our rights, but he doesn't know where it's all going. And he finishes the thread asking, what's the end game? As Harrison Smith from the American Journal says, it's a pyramid scheme. The people perpetrating the pyramid scheme are in charge of everything. They're going to sacrifice humanity in order to maintain their system.

The world economy is being collapsed. The food supply is being destroyed. The energy that we rely on to maintain civilization is being curtailed and eliminated, and we'll be forced into the great reset where we will own nothing. Now former BlackRock stock picker Ed Dowd believes that the entire COVID sham was created as a cover for the financial collapse and that the new lockdowns are coming to try to mitigate the inevitable violence and chaos that we can expect to be witnessing in the streets and probably very shortly. We also saw how Dr. Mike Yadin, former Pfizer VP, also believes that COVID and the death

shot are an elaborate hoax to engineer a collapse of sovereign currencies to bring in the Great Reset and the introduction of programmable central bank digital currencies for a wholly controlled population in which people will not be able to buy food unless the algorithms permit and the undesirables can basically be starved to death via artificial intelligence well that says it all i think we should just leave it at that and we'll pick this back up tomorrow. Jesus Christ is coming. Amen. That's the good news.

Jesus Christ is coming. I encourage you to read my book, Final Day. You can order it at our website at truenews.com. And also, watch the new show, Rick Wiles Today.

I don't know how much time I got left.

I don't know how much time the world's got left. I'm going out in a blaze of glory preaching Jesus Christ that he's coming again. And you need to be born again. You need to be baptized. That's my message and I'm sticking to it. I'll see you tomorrow. God bless you. To find out how you can help, visit www.truenews.com.
