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. Ukrainian military and political leaders have stepped up their verbal threats to bring down the 11-mile-long Kerch Strait Bridge that connects the Russian mainland with Crimea. Their threats are not received well inside the Kremlin. Former Russian President Medvedev promised that Judgment Day would arrive soon for anybody involved in attacking Russia. Doc Burkhardt and I have a lot to share with you today,

plus a story about an allegation of a Masonic murder of Pope John Paul I. Let's start with the latest Ukrainian threats to demolish the Kerch Strait Bridge. Right. And a lot of this has to do with the weapons that are being shipped there from the U.S. and other NATO-allied countries, and so it looks as if they're ramping up for some kind of an attack on the Crimean Bridge, also known as the Kerch Strait Bridge,

here in the very near future. So, Doc, if the Ukrainian military attacks the bridge, which is this fairly new bridge, I think they built it, I think it was built between 2011, 2014, has lanes for automobiles and trucks and railroad trains. So it is the main bridge between the mainland Russia and Crimea. If they take it down, and this would be similar to the destruction of the Chesapeake Bay Bridge

or the San Francisco Bay Bridge, if the Ukrainians did it on their own, there's obviously going to be furious Russian blowback. But if the Ukrainians did it on their own. There's obviously going to be furious Russian blowback. But if the Ukrainians do it with weapons from the United States or Great Britain, we are implicated in that attack. Right. And that is an act of war.

And there's no doubt in my mind the Russians are going to retaliate in a very furious way against the United States and Great Britain and any other nation involved in it. People are really underestimating what is about to happen. If we even make it to fall, I was going to say say this fall we don't even know at this point if we're going to make it to fall i mean this is mid june mid july and the ukrainians are talking about bringing it down like it's something they're going to do this weekend they can't wait to bring down this bridge let's look at um we get a couple stories from Novasti News Service. First one, Russian Ministry of Defense, excuse me, the Ministry of Defense of Ukraine said that the armed forces of Ukraine can strike Crimea using the HIMARS, which are the missiles from the United States.

Yeah, and the translation of headlines sometimes is kind of bulky, the way they say it. So basically, the Ukraine defense minister is threatening Crimea with U.S.-made MLRSs, the long-range rocket system. So the article went on to say that Kiev can use American missiles to strike at Crimea, said Vadim Skibitsky, spokesman for the main intelligence director of the Ukrainian Defense Ministry. When asked by a journalist about whether Ukrainian troops can use the HIMARS and the MLRS to hit targets on Crimea, Skibitsky answered in the affirmative. On the air of the Unified Ukrainian Telethon, he in particular noted the active use of the Black Sea fleet of Russia.

And so he's saying that's also a target there as well. So Russia has previously sent a note to NATO countries regarding the supply of weapons to Kiev. Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov noted that any cargo that contains weapons for Ukraine will become a legitimate target for Russia. The Russian Foreign Ministry stated that the NATO countries are playing with fire by supplying weapons to Ukraine. Well, we already know that some MILRs and some of the HIMARS are also already in Ukraine. The problem is they don't have the training nor the satellite intelligence to be able to complete the targeting.

And that requires someone in NATO cooperating and providing that intelligence. Of course they do. And like somebody in NATO provided the assistance in providing the technical specs of the bridge, which the Ukrainian army chief said, hey, we have the drawings. We have the bridge. We know everything about the bridge. We know its weak spots.

We know everything. And then you had last week General Breedlove, the former commander of NATO. An engineer himself. An engineer. And he said, I know where the weak spots are in that bridge. That bridge needs to come down. The former commander of NATO quoted by the Times of London on the front page saying the bridge needs to come down. I mean, at this point, if the bridge comes down,

even if NATO doesn't have anything to do with it, they're already implicated. In a court of law, it'd be like, well, you guys were bragging about doing it before the crime. Right. So it'd be like if someone shot somebody, but you provided them the gun. Yeah. So, Novosti also had another article as well, Kiev threatens Crimean Bridge as soon as the opportunity arises. And it says in that particular article,

Alexei Arestovich, advisor to the head of Vladimir Zelensky's office, said that Ukraine could attack the Crimean Bridge as soon as the first technical possibility appears. So obviously there's a missing link somewhere in all of this, Rick. This is the second statement in a day by Kiev about the possibility of a strike on the bridge. Earlier, the Ukrainian Ministry of Defense made a similar statement that we talked about here just a few minutes ago. It goes on to say in that particular article, as soon as the first technical possibility appears, the bridge will immediately become a target. If there are restrictions from partners because they see the big picture saying do not hit the territory of the Russian Federation, that means we won't hit. We have enough targets on

the territory of Ukraine. And by the way, the Crimean Bridge passes through the territorial waters of Ukraine. The rest of it's set on the Fagan Live YouTube channel. Isn't that a way of saying we can strike the bridge? We can blow up our own piece of ground or piece of property if we want to. And technically say we haven't hit Russia. Right. So they're going to figure out a way to blow up the bridge. So what's the key element in all that is the first technical possibility, which means it's not in place yet, but they're getting close. They're saying everything, you know, we're going to do it just as soon as we get the very first opportunity. I would assume it's the training on the U.S. missiles. They're not ready yet. And he also indicated

that NATO or the United States has got to get a green light. Somebody's got to wink and nod and say do it. Without winking and nodding. In writing. Yes. Well the former president of Russia, Dmitry Medvedev, who's been quite outspoken in recent months. His normally calm demeanor has become almost apocalyptic. And he obviously has a Bible in his home because

a few weeks ago he said the four horsemen of the apocalypse were riding. He said God have mercy on all of us and now he's talking about Judgment Day now he's talking about Judgment Day so he's he's responding to these threats that Ukraine is going to attack the Kerch Strait Bridge and he said an attack on Crimea will ignite Judgment Day response. Right, and we actually have that quote. In the event of attack on Crimea,

Medvedev was quoted by TASS News Agency as saying, Judgment Day will come very fast and hard. It will be difficult to hide. Medvedev did not elaborate, but has previously warned the U.S. of the dangers of attempting to punish a nuclear power such as Russia over its actions in Ukraine, saying this could endanger humanity. His comments were aired a day after a Ukrainian official suggested that Crimea, which most of the world still recognizes as part of Ukraine, could be a target for U.S.-made HIMARS missiles recently deployed by Kiev as it battles Russian forces. So we've pointed this out many times.

From a religious, spiritual viewpoint, Crimea is the holy land in the eyes of Russia. The birthplace of Russia, really. Because Christianity came to Russia from Crimea. So they see Crimea as a sacred place. It has the same spiritual value as Jerusalem has to the Jews. Right. So what would be the reaction if Iran blew up Jerusalem. Well, of course. The world would be, you know, angered at Iran.

And what would the Israeli military do? They'd feel prompted to attack Iran and nuke them. I mean, there'd be no doubt about it they'd nuke them. So if Ukraine blows up Crimea, what will Russia do? There might be nukes flying at the very next minute. It's common sense conclusions where this is going. It's so obvious. And when you have former president, but he's also the vice chair of the Russian Security Council.

They have a body, the Russian Security Council. This is not like the National Security Council in the United States that's like a department inside the White House. The Russian Security Council is a branch of government. In itself. In itself. It is a branch of government. It is the really the official deep state

political organ of Russia. I mean the who's who of Russia of the deep state has a seat on the National Security Council. National Security I guess it's a council, agency. So even

Vladimir Putin has to report to it. I mean, they don't report to him. He's a member of the committee. It carries a lot of weight. Like the board of directors of corporations. Yes, it would be like a board of directors. So if you're going to go to war, you've got to get their approval. So it's their war council, basically. Yes. And if they say we're going to war,

you're implementing it. They're going to make that decision, not Putin. So he is the vice chairman. It's a second. So I would say Putin, Petrushov, who is the vice chairman. He's the second. I would say Putin, Petrushev, who is the chairman, and Medvedev. Those are your top three. And General Shugoo. Right. It seems like lately they've really been putting Medvedev out there making these statements on behalf of that particular council, doesn't it? He could be coming back to power.

I mean, he did serve as president, you know, for four years when Putin was not allowed by the Constitution to be president again. So he was the president, he was the prime minister, but he never talked like this before. He was always the mild-mannered, you know, easygoing Russian leader. But now, and he's not bellicose.

He's quoting scripture. He's referring to the four horsemen of the apocalypse. He's talking about judgment day. He knows where we're headed. And he sees this nuclear war coming and he knows this could be the end of the human race. And he's very aware of it. So he made this statement that people are playing with fire. The West is playing with fire. They better watch out what they're doing. You're pushing around a country that has thousands of nuclear weapons, and it's not going to go well for you. So the next story

we have is uh this is from rt russian military given new priority in ukraine and that take out american weapons yes so uh general sergey shogu told his officers do what you have to do to take out artillery that's being supplied by the U.S. That's their number one priority now. Take out American supplied weapons. And you know, any other invader, Rick, in the world, you know, when they move into another country, what do they normally do? They break it, they bomb the railroads, they bomb the roads, take down the power grid. Russia has the TV stations and everything.

And Russia hasn't done any of that in Ukraine. They've restrained themselves from that. But if this supply of weapons continues into Ukraine, I think you're going to start seeing that. Well, listen, last week Putin said, we really haven't even done much yet. Remember the statement he made? It was something like,

we really haven't started the fight yet. And then we've seen on the Western side various political leaders like Macron of France saying we're expecting the fall and winter to get very nasty in the fighting. They know that this change is about to happen. So it happened today, Doc. On the Russian side, it happened today. This story of General Sugo instructing the Russian military leaders on the ground in Ukraine to take out American-supplied weapons, that's the change. And you're absolutely right. Railroads, you know, whatever is the infrastructure that the Russians have avoided blowing it up, they're going to take it out now.

And, you know, I don't know where the U.S. and the Ukrainian military are storing these missiles and the missile launchers. I mean, they may be putting them in population centers. Or in hospitals or in schools. Yes. In malls. You saw that mall that got blown up here a couple of weeks ago. And so what's the news when that happens? If they put the missiles in a mall

and Russia takes out a mall, the whole world says they blew up kids and everybody. Right. they blew up kids and everybody. But if that's where the Ukrainian military is putting them, which I would suspect that they would, but if they are, Doc, this thing's going to get really ugly very fast. And I'm going to go back to what we've been saying for the past several weeks. We're all running, you and I, we're all running out of time to stockpile food and supplies. It's going to change in the coming weeks. For a while, I thought it was going to be October, November.

I'm now thinking, or even a few weeks ago, I was thinking September. I'm now thinking it's August. It could change that quickly. Yes. We still have a couple weeks left in July. I think we're going to see a step up in fighting in August. But September, October, November, December is going to be very ugly. And if there is not a peaceful diplomatic settlement of this war in the next two months,

then we are on course for a nuclear war by December. It's just that stark. That's where we're at. You have to look at what's happening, what's being said, and make a realistic evaluation of the situation and not have blinders on, not be in denial, just look at it, inkling of the danger that we're facing, Doc. And I don't know about you, but when I've tried to tell people, you know, outside of this building, outside of this program, it just goes right over their head. They don't listen.

At the same time, there seems to be a general feeling that something's up, doesn't it? I mean, they know something's up, but they don't want to look to see. They don't want to look at it. When you tell them, they don't want to hear it. You know, I was telling somebody over the weekend, he said, oh, you know, because I got friends in the military, they told me we can shoot down anything the Russians have. Okay. You want to bet your life on that? So, yeah, that's where, so really, that's where we're at? So we're just going to sit here and watch nukes explode in the sky? Yeah, we got another one, got another one. Yeah, look at them. They're popping in the clouds, okay? You really want that? How many can just how many get through?

We're going to shoot down 100 percent. But that's the way people are thinking. And what about the ones already here? That's a whole other program. Yeah. Well, you know, a lot of comparisons have been made, you know, to Vladimir Putin as the new Hitler and everything. But there are those are saying you better be careful in making those comparisons. There's an article out of Israel Ha'om, whoever compares Putin to Hitler must be prepared for an all-out war. A French advisor says,

we are approaching a point of no return. One of the first to warn against the lust for war and the total recruitment on Ukraine's side was French politician Henri Guineau, a senior advisor to former President Nicolas Sarkozy. He is considered one of the brightest analysts in France's foreign relations. In a recent article, Guineau warned that the West is blindly marching towards a world war. And in an interview with Israel Haim, Guaido calls upon the West to change his attitude to Russia and stop comparing it to Nazi Germany. He goes on to say in this particular interview that he had, it depends on what the involved sides will do. The war in Iraq

started as a geographically limited war and then it spread and left Iraq and Syria in ruins, created ISIS, increased terrorism, and left millions as refugees. The war turned into a crisis of a totally different dimension. This is what happened with World War I as well. And who gave us that? Who gave us that wonderful scenario? NATO. Yeah, the ruling elite of the United States and Western Europe. They created that mess. Yes. And so we're supposed to trust them that the latest fiasco that they're working on is going to turn out well. War

with Russia. It's one thing to go to war with Iraq and Syria because they don't have the ability to really fight back against the United States. Yeah, they didn't have nukes. But Russia does. That's right. Mr. Grinnell goes on to say, the war is a process that is not controlled by human reality.

Everyone contributes to the outset of a war. When a war breaks out, everyone contributes to making it more extreme. At some point, we are at a point of no return. Maybe this war will expand and reach Europe. It has already affected the global economy. Well, the fact of the matter is we're in World War III. We're in it now. There might not be nuclear bombs dropping on London and D.C. yet,

but we're in World War III as it stands economically. Absolutely. And the effects are the same. Yes. We're telling people to burn wood this winter in Germany. We're telling them you can't have hot water in half of Europe. We're in a wartime economy. Right.

I was telling some folks over the weekend, I was trying to explain this about the LNG natural gas that is being cut off in Europe. So the typical American attitude is, well, that's Europe. That doesn't affect us. Right. We got lots of LNG here. Yes. Until Joe Biden invokes wartime emergency powers, seizes the supply, and ships it to Europe. In support of the war in Ukraine.

Of the war effort against Russia. So get ready for it. You could see energy supplies in the United States seized and shipped to Europe because Russia is going to cut off everything to Europe very, very soon. And we're going to talk in a minute about something that's already happened just in today's news. Germany's Chancellor, Mr. Schultz, wait till you read with this? I'm going to, I promise myself not to call these people names. Don't get your blood pressure up today. I know. It doesn't do any good to call them names.

Are they really this, I just don't know. Well, let's read what this guy said. There are actually efforts underway to have conversations about peace in Ukraine. But this article in TASS is telling us that the EU is to keep sanctions even if peace in Ukraine is signed on in Russia's terms. So if there's a peace agreement between Ukraine and Russia, if the ruling class of Europe and America don't like the peace agreement. They'll keep the sanctions. So who's really at war?

The war is really being managed by the West. Yes. And Mr. Schultz said, well, if Zelensky signs a peace treaty with Russia that we don't like, too bad. We're not going to give up. We're just going to continue to turn the screws on Russia until they collapse, because that's what it's all about. Yes, it's not about Ukraine.

No, they're using Ukraine to bring about the collapse of Russia. They'll wipe Ukraine out just and pave it over, you know, just so they can get at Russia at this point. This article says that the EU will not withdraw the sanctions imposed on Russia over the situation in Ukraine, even if Moscow and Kiev sign a peace treaty on Russians' terms, German Chancellor Olaf Scholz said on Sunday. The part of the new reality is that the EU has also consolidated. It has reacted to the Russian aggression quite unanimously and imposed unprecedentedly harsh sanctions.

We knew it from the start that we'll potentially have to keep these sanctions for a long time. And it's also clear that not a single one of these sanctions will be withdrawn in case of peace dictated by Russia, he continues. In case of peace. Yes. If peace breaks out, we're not going to recognize it. On Russia's terms. In other words, Ukraine has to win. That's the only option for NATO. There is no other path for an agreement with Ukraine for Russia

than the one that could be accepted by the Ukrainians. We will support Ukraine for as long as it will be required for support, economic, humanitarian, financial, and by arms shipments. And here's the funniest line of this quote, Rick. At the same time, we guarantee that NATO will not become a side of the war. You know who else thinks like this? The Democrats and the political left in America.

Think about the mindset. The way the left and the Democrats, I mean, it's all one group. The way that they think is it's so lopsided. It doesn't matter. There's no reason. There's no fairness. I read today, only 30% of journalists think that both sides of a political issue should be heard. 30%, that's it. I think that both sides. See, this is where we're at. Their mindset is, no, we win. It's on our terms. Look at the tech companies, Twitter, Facebook, YouTube. Their arrogant attitude is you're not permitted to have a thought. You're not permitted to have

a view. It's our view and nothing else. And if you don't agree with that view, you have to go somewhere else. So now we see this is one big monster that stretches from the west coast of America to Germany. It's one big monster on both continents, in Canada, in Australia, in Western Europe. It's the woke West. The woke, yeah. And, well, Russia is about to put them to sleep. That's a good sermon. Russia is about to put to sleep the woke West. Because they're not going to tolerate this stuff.

And, you know, when we talk about the West, we're not just talking about governments or we're not just talking about the people that are involved. When we talk about the West, you have totally integrated the military, you've totally integrated politics, and you've also totally integrated technology. It's all weaponized. You saw an article in TOS today that talks about Microsoft, and this is from the Russian Foreign Ministry, Microsoft fulfills the Pentagon's order to deprive Ukraine of digital sovereignty.

It is fascism. Yes. They have total digital control over Ukraine. So what do you think, go ahead, we got a quote from it. Right, so Microsoft was fulfilling an order from the security services in the Pentagon to take full control of the entire information infrastructure of Ukraine and deprive it of digital sovereignty. This is stated in the comments of the Deputy Foreign Minister of the Russian Federation, Oleg Saromolotov, on the anti-Russian report of Microsoft Protection of Ukraine, the first lessons of cyber warfare distributed on Monday this week. What's this sound like to you, Doc?

It sounds like technical fascism. I mean, total control. It actually sounds a lot like what Israel has been doing in the West Bank for a long, long time. Total digital control, cell phones, internet, everything, being managed by a foreign power. That's what it is. It's not that the Ukrainian government

contracted with Microsoft. What the Russians are saying is the Pentagon contracted with Microsoft to take over the entire cyberspace of Ukraine. Everything. The Ukrainian government lost control of the Internet and everything related to cyberspace in Ukraine. It's now being managed by Microsoft on behalf of the Pentagon.

Now, my guess is they're bracing for cyber warfare. And they knew the Ukrainian government Now, my guess is they're bracing for cyber warfare. And they knew the Ukrainian government didn't have the wherewithal to withstand a serious cyber attack. So they put Microsoft in charge of it. So what do we have? We have Microsoft defending the cyber fort. Okay. You have Starlink, Elon Musk. Providing internet.

Providing the satellite internet to the Ukrainian army to kill Russians. How many other major American corporations are actively involved in the war? They all become targets. Yes. And that's why it's a military, industrial, technical, technology complex now. You can't absent anything from the West without talking about all three of those components as well.

That's right. And who are we as citizens, who are we up against? It's the same group. Yes. And what they would do to Russia, they would do to you. They've already been doing it to us. They've already stripped us of our rights. They've already destroyed the Constitution of this country. They've been doing it for quite some time. But now we're seeing their raw, ugly face appear in Europe in this war.

And the Russians aren't, they're not backing down. And that's making them furious that Russia won't back down. The next story, this is Russia's Gazprom declares force majeure on some gas supplies to Europe. This is actually a big deal. We've got a couple of quotes and then we'll talk about it. So Russia's Gazprom has declared force majeure on gas supplies to Europe to at least one major customer, according to the letter from Gazprom dated July 14th. And as seen by Reuters this week, the letter said Gazprom, which has a monopoly on Russian gas exports by pipeline, could not fulfill its supply obligations owing to extraordinary circumstances outside of its control. Now, it said the force majeure measures, a clause invoked when

a business is hit by something beyond its control, was effective from delivery starting from June 14th. A trading source said the letter concerned supplies through the Nord Stream 1 pipeline, a major supply route to Germany and beyond. So it might be a good idea, Rick, to tell people what is a force majeure clause. Yeah, okay, so it's a clause that's in a lot of contracts in business. So, Doc, if you had a widget factory and I needed a million widgets a month. All right, I'm opening up the production lines. We sign a contract, and everything I'm doing on my side,

I am absolutely dependent on a shipment of one million widgets per month, and my financial stability, solvency, depends on you delivering a million widgets. Right, and I'm going to do my best to fulfill that order because I want the money for a million widgets. Not only that, but there are penalties in the contract for not, not supplying the million. Okay. Right. So it's a tight contract, but you insisted on a force majeure clause and I reluctantly agreed to it. Okay. And everything's, everything's just going along

honky dory for years. I'm moving widgets down the line and everything. Okay. And everything's just going along honky-dory for years. I'm moving widgets down the line and everything. Everything's happy. Widgets are coming at me left and right, and I'm paying for the widgets, and everything's great. And then one day you call me up and you go, we've got problems. What is it?

Well, there's a war over here. The widget factory is down. Right. Okay? And I can't send any widgets this month. And I'm not going to send any widgets next month. I probably can't send any widgets for six months. We've got a war. Right. I can't even staff my factory. And I shout, well, Doc, I'm going to sue you. But Rick, we do have a force majeure clause in our agreement that if

something weird happened like a you know a storm or an explosion or you know something beyond an act of God an act of God a hurricane volcano something that prevents you from sending a million widgets then you are released from the contractual obligation to send those million widgets. So Gazprom, you know, it's like the Texaco, the Exxon of Russia. They invoked force majeure last week and told Europe, hey, we can't fulfill that contract anymore. There's a war going on. There's a war. And you guys have made it worse.

And, you know, there's no gas coming. So you can't take us to the world court and sue us. You can't take us to the World Trade Organization and sue us. We've got a force majeure clause in this contract. And we just can't send the gas. They just cut it off. That's what happened today, Doc.

And so all these efforts to build up those supplies in Europe just got really, really tough, right? Yes. So that letter was dated July 14? Yes, so last week, well, late last week. Okay, so that's why these stories started popping up last week about you're going to be chopping wood and burning trees to keep your house warm. No hot water.

No hot water and all that kind of stuff. And Germany's going to have warming stations. Right, they're going to open up sports arenas so you can come in and stay warm kind of stuff. And, you know, Germany's going to have warming stations. Right. They're going to open up sports arenas so you can come in and stay warm in the winter. Really? That's the solution? Come on, kids. We're going down to the warming station.

Hey, why do we have to go here? It's for Ukraine, kids. That's why we're here. We're fighting for freedom. Zelensky, the champion of democracy. While you're sleeping on a cot on a soccer field, think about the freedom we're providing for Ukraine. Yes.

I don't think people are going to buy it. I really don't. I think people are going to get fed up with it very quickly. They're not reacting yet because nothing's been taken away. It hasn't hurt enough yet. It hasn't hurt them. It hasn't taken anything away. Mom's not packing the kids' clothing to take them down to the warming station.

Not yet. Wait till the fall. It's still summertime. Well, you know, a gentleman you and I both admire says you will only change when there's enough pain. That's right. And so there's not enough pain yet. The pain is coming. The pain is coming.

The pain is coming September, October. By November, it's going to hurt really bad. It's going to be severe. That's why please take my advice. Build up your supplies now. Do it now. You're running out of time. It is going to change drastically this fall. Next one, let's see. Jerusalem Post, I won't spend much on this. Putin and Erdogan

head to Iran. And that meeting's going on right now. And then the next one is, I think, important financial tribune. Tehran preparing necessary documents to join the Shanghai Cooperation Organization. So this is a Shanghai SCO. is it is kind of like an Asian trade alliance but has the potential to become an Asian military line NATO yes so the fact that when I say an Asian NATO I mean a Asian military alliance run by Russia and China right so they've been going through this process for a little while Iran's full membership of the Shanghai Cooperation Organization, a transcontinental political, economic, and security alliance, is expected to be finalized by next year, according to reports citing officials.

A report in the Chinese Daily Global Times citing Iran's embassy in Beijing said after signing its first memorandum of obligations at the Samarkand summit in September Iran's accession to the Eurasia spanning organization will be finalized by April 2023 and so this is this alliance includes Russia includes China actually also includes India as well but it's significant in the sense that it legitimizes the Iran and the Iranian government in the eyes of a major block of nations. And, of course, Iran has also applied to join BRICS, too. So they're moving in that direction as well.

So what are we seeing, Rick? We're seeing that division that you've talked about so often here on the program between the West and the East, two different systems, two different orders of government, two different world orders, if you will, competing for dominance. Even Tony Blair agrees with me. I don't know if you saw that article today, Doc. I want to jump out of sequence here. This is number 33, as in Masonic order. So I don't know. I saw Tony Blair and a lot of Masons. And then I saw it was our number 33 on our list.

So Western dominance to be replaced by bipolar world order. Bipolar. Yes, well, the world is by bipolar world order. Bipolar. Yes, well, the world is definitely bipolar right now. There's no doubt about that. But look, Tony Blair is a very smart man. And he is a well-connected globalist. And he sees what's happening. He was a big promoter of globalism

when his faction was in control. His faction meaning that Western monster we were talking about. It's losing. He knows it. He knows that his faction of globalists are losing. We got a couple of quotes from this article. So in 2022, we can reasonably say the following.

For a large part of the Western population, living standards are stagnating. Millions are struggling with basic necessities and inflation is set to cause real wages to fall. And he goes on to say, if we take Britain, we will soon be taxed more than at any time since the 1940s. You were part of that, Tony. Spending more than ever, and yet our public services are creaking at the joints, Blair said during his annual Ditchley lecture on Saturday, as quoted by the Tony Blair Institute for Global Change. Well, we got global change, don't we? Yes, we do. So Western politics is in turmoil, more partisan, ugly, unproductive, and fueled by social media, Blair said,

arguing that the biggest geopolitical change of this century will come from China, not Russia. We're coming to an end, to the end of Western political and economic dominance. The world is going to be at least bipolar and possibly multipolar. In total agreement, what are you saying? He's right. I mean, that's where we're headed right now. The demarcation lines are getting obvious now.

There's a 500-year cycle, and power shifts from the east to the west, and west to the east every 500 years. We're already in that transition. Power is switching to the east. It will remain in the east for 500 years. If the world is here 500 years from now, we will be watching the decline of the east and the transition to power to the West.

Whatever the world, can you imagine this world 500 years from now? I mean, just think of the difference between now and 500 years ago. I mean, the world has radically changed since then. But there is a 500-year cycle. And within that 500-year cycle, you have multiple basic 7,500500 year cycles within that as well.

And nations have a 300 year lifespan as an empire. Great Britain, Holy Roman Empire, the United States. See we're maxed out. We've hit our time limit for the United States. It doesn't mean that the nation itself will disappear but it becomes something else. The Roman Empire went through that cycle three separate times. Greece is still here. But it's just not ruling the world.

So it's moving back to the east. It will stay in the east for 500 years. You know, if people that think generational, you would be wise to start making plans to move your entire family to the east because that's where the power and the money and the influence is going to be and we don't mean the east coast of the united states no we we mean the east but few people think in generational terms but we're this is over here i mean it is going to be a steady decline. And what's happening right now is the United States and Western Europe is fighting to hold on to what power it has.

That's why we have this war taking place right now. It's a last-ditch effort to hang on to power. Yes. And it will actually result in speeding up the decline. And that's the irony of it, isn't it? It is. It will speed up the decline of the West. They would be better off to let the air out of the balloon slowly.

Instead, it's going to get popped. And that's where I see this going. I'm going to skip. Let's see. I'm going to go back. Let's go back up to 26. I'm going to go through these. This is from Russia.

LGBT propaganda faces a complete ban in Russia. Right. And in this article itself. I'm sorry. Can you imagine this headline in the United States? LGBT propaganda faces complete ban in the USA. I mean, because we embrace. Dear Jesus, let it happen. Oh, so we're supposed to say God bless America and God is going to condemn Russia. Don't we have this backwards right now? But people don't see it, Rick. They really don't. In fact, it even goes so far as equating

promotion of sexual immorality with war propaganda. And it is war propaganda. That's the key. That's what they're getting at. So the promotion of LGBT relations could be permanently banned in Russia under a bill introduced to the state Duma on Monday, which likens such messaging to war propaganda and incitement of hatred. Think about that. The LGBT programming being an incitement of hatred. Currently, LGBT propaganda in Russia is only banned when directed at children, but some politicians have been calling for harsher restrictions and punishments for the denial of family values and propaganda of non-traditional sexual relations. The article in RT goes on to say, in an explanatory note attached to the bill,

the authors argue that LGBT propaganda has become widespread in Russia and is being promoted through the media, public events, streaming services, and through the depiction of such relationships in films. Because the West is trying to bring down the Russian society. Right. They're infecting Russia with the sins of the West to cause the society to collapse like they caused our society to collapse. These freaks that run America, they're not Americans. I mean, they all got American passports.

Yeah, they say that they're Americans, but they're not Americans. They are globalists. They are Satanists. They are Luciferians. And they collapsed american society they they brought about the destruction of christian values in america they are anti-christ and what the russians are realizing is they're doing the same thing to russia yes they're taking those values and they're exporting them onto our homeland.

And whether you agree with Russia or not, that's their perspective on it. Newsweek magazine has this. Russia is in a holy war in Ukraine against Satanic West and the LGBT agenda. Aptia Alutinov, the commander of Chechen forces fighting for Russia, praised Russian President Vladimir Putin's invasion of Ukraine, calling it a holy war against the satanic values of Europe and the United States, as well as the LGBT community. In his comments, the Chechen commander praised Putin for standing up against the West and NATO,

describing them as evil. He praised the Russian president for preventing LGBTQ rights from advancing in their country, contending that the fight in Ukraine was a war against the marginalized community. This is a holy war our saints and elders spoke of, Ludinov asserted, who went on to say that he praises God to live in Russia and that the country is led by Putin. He is the man that refused to accept the so-called European values. In reality, those are Satanist values that are imposed on the entire world, he said. Aladinov noted that he is grateful that Putin is following the values of the Most High, referring to God. We are not under the flags of the LGBT, and as long

as he's alive, we won't be under those flags. Why don't we have people like that talking here in the U.S., Rick? They would be deplatformed. They would be vilified. They would have a Wikipedia bio worse than mine. That's what they do to you here. They destroy your name and your reputation. We are up against Satan in this country.

They're not, let's stop talking about political leftists and what, we're talking about Satanists. Yes. Satanic family values. Yes. So, Doc, that first article where the bill introduced in the Duma to ban LGBT propaganda. Right. Okay, up until last year, I would say up until last December of 21,

that bill never would have been introduced in the Russian legislature. Because as far as Putin and the Russian leaders were willing to go on LGBT, was to say, we're not going to allow homosexual propaganda against children. They knew. They knew if they went any farther

that the Western propaganda would vilify Russia. They would make Russia, you know, they would brand it as homophobic. Putin wants to kill gays. You know how the propaganda machine would go. Right. But the Russians are out of place right now. They don't care what the West thinks. In fact, they know what the West is. And they're now calling us what we are, satanic. All holds are off. All restraints are off now. So they are going to, you can bet, they're going to ban homosexual propaganda in Russia. They don't care what the Western media says. They don't care.

You know, with all the sanctions and all the corporate wokeness and everything about cutting off services to Russia, not as much of that content and media and everything has been being dumped into Russia over the past six months. And maybe people are waking up to, you know what? There was all this LGBT stuff before. There's not as much anymore. That's right, because the American corporations have left. Right. And the American

funded NGOs, they're leaving Russia. They've left Russia. So, go back to what Tony Blair said. There's going to be two poles, or bipolar world now. So, this Eastern bloc is going to say no to the homosexual agenda of the West. Right. If you stay in the West, you're going to be pro-sodomy,

pro-pedophilia. Pro-abortion. Pro-abortion. That's going to be the Western value. If you say I'm going to be identified with the Western Bloc, then your values are going to be identified with the western block then your values are going to be satanic yes and every nation is going to have to make that choice along the way

and if you if you refuse to endorse it your life is going to be miserable because they're going to make your life miserable because they want submission you know uh a lot and i've had one more quote there, and this is a pretty telling one here, and this is in his view, but there's a lot of truth in it. He also called American democracy the main enemy of mankind. Continuing, he said the U.S., Europe, and NATO carry within them everything that is satanic and that they are the army of the Antichrist. We're talking biblical themes here. But Rick, that first line there,

American democracy being the main enemy of mankind. You know, one of our big themes, our political forces around the world, we're delivering democracy to Iran or to Ukraine or wherever. We're delivering democracy. But our nation wasn't founded as a democracy. No. But this is all Masonic propaganda.

Yes. And what I'm going to do, my last story for today, we'll be talking about Masons. I'll drop down to number 39. This is from LifeSite News. Catholic priest claims Freemason cardinal killed Pope John Paul I. Right, so this article is talking about the infiltration of the Catholic Church, Roman Catholic Church by Freemasons.

Up on the LifeSite News site right now, one of the quotes that we have, the last man to have spoken to Pope John Paul I, soon to be beatified, he's going to become a saint in the Roman Catholic Church, was a cardinal of the Roman Curia, whom the pope intended to remove from office because of his membership in Freemasonry. Just hours after a heated meeting with the cardinal in the Apostolic Palace, the Pope was found dead. Now, the last meeting of John Paul I with Cardinal Baggio and the latter's membership in Freemasonry have been kept hidden by the Vatican for decades. A Time magazine article telling the story is the only evidence from the time that Father Charles Murr, who's the author of Murder in the 33rd Degree, was able to recover as outside evidence.

The only place, Murr says, that I saw a report of the meeting between the Holy Father, John Paul I, and Cardinal Baggio, Sebastian Baggio, was in Time magazine. I have a copy of it, and it cost me dearly to find. So Father Murr alleges that the confrontation between the Pope and the high-ranking Cardinal,

a member of both the Roman Curia and the Masonic Lodge, very well may have been what caused John Paul I to suffer a heart attack only hours later. But given the nature of the confrontation, Murr also alleges that the circumstances on the pontiff's death would qualify it as a Masonic murder. John Paul I was on extreme levels of blood pressure medication. He was also under doctors' orders not to have increased stress and things like that in his life. Cardinal Baggio had met him the night before. According to Father

Mirra who talked to the Swiss guards that actually guarded the Pope's door that night. He heard screaming and yelling, not from the Pope, but from Cardinal Baggio. They didn't go into detail what the shouting was about, but that was about 11 o'clock at night that Cardinal Baggio left. They found Pope John Paul I dead in his apartment, the papal apartment, 4.30 in the morning, dead of a heart attack. But Cardinal Baggio was the last person to actually

see and talk to Pope John Paul I. And he was screaming. I never heard this part. So John Paul I, for those that don't know, he was the short pope. Not that he was short, but he only served 33 days. He was that interim pope before John Paul II came along. And so, but only served 33 days. But there's always been a lot of mystery surrounding his death. And it turns out there's a lengthy interview with Father Muir on the LifeSite News site, about two hours long, where he goes into great detail about Freemasonry and the Catholic Church

and that Pope John Paul, he's making the speculation based on his research and his book Murder in the 33rd Degree that Pope John Paul I was murdered either by causing him to die as a result of an argument or prompting some sort of

murder weapon. It may be a poison, medicine something like that. It was something in a drink that caused him to have a heart attack. You know, a lot of Protestants mistakenly think that the Roman Catholic Church is pro-free masonry. It is not. No. It is vehemently anti-masonry. But there are high-level Masons in the Roman Catholic Church, particularly the Jesuits.

So we have a Jesuit pope right now. And he is promoting this deceased cardinal, taking him to a special honor in the Catholic Church. But once again, you have that number 33 that pops up with Pope John Paul I, a Masonic number. But the denominations that it's the Protestants that are pro- Freemasonry. Yes. I knew a number

of Baptist pastors that were devout Freemasons. And there are some black church denominations that are pro-Freemasonry. Yes. But the Masons have infiltrated most church organizations. I get surprised because I follow up on Masonic updates on different sites and stuff like that. I'm surprised at the number of politicians, especially in the early years of our country, 17, 1800s going all the way up till today,

that were involved in Freemasonry. I mean, one thing that you do have available from the Freemasons is they keep meticulous records. They keep records of your membership and what lodge that you're a part of and when you were advanced and up to a certain level of course. But they make a lot of information public and it's amazing the information that you find. And Freemasonry has infiltrated virtually every government in the world. You can't deny the fact that the founding of America, the culture was Christian.

Yes. But the politics was Masonic. Yes. You can't, and the symbolism is prevalent all over Washington, D.C. and Not only Washington, D.C. just go to any city hall, any county courthouse and look at the cornerstone. Most likely it's going to have an engraving that says this cornerstone was laid by the Freemasons, which is a way of saying the government of this city, the government of this county is built on Freemasonry. And if you don't believe me, go to your local county courthouse, your local city hall, and look at the cornerstone. And if it has a

Masonic cornerstone, then go to your mayor and council or your county commissioners, county council, and tell them you want to remove that cornerstone. And you want to replace it with a cornerstone that says, this building is built upon Christ. The true cornerstone. Just watch the reaction you're going to get, and you will find out how many of your local political leaders are Masons. They'll turn on you with a vicious hatred that you will, it'll shock you. Just go ahead and try to replace a Masonic cornerstone with a Christ cornerstone. Because what you're saying is,

we're going to change the government to being built on Christ. They don't want that. It is to be built on Masonry. Our nation is a Masonic nation. And here we are. This is the reason we're in this mess now. It is not a, our government is not a Christian focused government. It is a Masonic government. So that's it for today. Nothing else.

I think we've covered a lot of ground here. We started out quoting the Bible with Judgment Day and then we went to a Chesham leader saying the West is... Preaching like an old time Pentecostal preacher. Yeah, that the West is satanic and we end up with a Roman Catholic's news article about a Masonic murder of the Pope. All in one program.

You won't see that on Fox News tonight or CNN, but you saw it on True News. We appreciate your support. We rely on your support. And by the way, a lot of you have taken up my challenge on miracle money. And we're already getting testimonies coming in. Some people had miracle money appear within one hour.

And so I want to challenge you. It's not going to cost you a dime out of what you have. God's going to give you miracle money. And if you go, that's too crazy. I don't believe it. Well, you won't get it. It's just that simple. If you don't believe it, you won't get it.

You have to believe. You have to believe. You have to have faith in God. Have faith that he'll do it. And ask God to give you miracle money. I've stretched it out to August 31st. But we have people who are getting miracle money within an hour after asking for it. Make a request to God for miracle money and promise him that you will share it 50-50 with True News and then fulfill your promise.

Look, if the miracle money that you get, like we had one today that came in, what was it, $3 and? $3.84, something like that. And she sent half of it. Yes, and she made it a point. She said, I know it seems silly to send half, but I made a promise to send half.

Yes, and she fulfilled the terms of the vow. Yeah. And if it was $3,000, she would have kept the same vow. So it's not the amount that matters. It's you believing God for miracle money, then God providing it to you, and then you fulfilling your vow. That's the exercise in faith and obedience. And some of you are going to find small amounts and some of you are going to find small amounts and some of you are going to get big amounts and timing is is what gets me too uh we had the the one lady that had received in uh and uh a settlement in a lawsuit from 10 years from a cosmetic company from 10 years ago it took 10 years for the lawsuit everything to be finalized.

She didn't even know she was part of it. And she got a check. Forgot about it. Got a check from the lawsuit. And she said, this is miracle money. And so I'm sending a half to you guys. And she said, I'm looking for the next miracle money. And you know what that is? Get me another pot.

Oh, yeah. Give me another bucket. I think it was Carrie who wrote and said, Miracle money is fun. Yeah, it's fun. That's the one I like. Miracle money is fun. Well, get in on the fun.

Make the pledge to God. Ask Him for miracle money. And any miracle money that He sends to you between now and August 31st of this year, you'll split it 50-50 with true news. And it's going to come. I promise you it's going to come. And if you keep your part of the vow, the Lord is going to bless you again.

And then if you want to keep it going, you'll just keep giving from the harvest. And that's what he's setting in motion. He's giving you, he's priming the pump. He's giving you miracle money. He's priming the pump for you to keep sending and giving and sending and giving and receiving. Watch what happens. I'll bring some of the emails tomorrow and read them to you. That's it for today.
