Trade Unionists in France cutting power to Macron’s speaking engagements forcing President to travel with own backup power

Mathew 24:12 And because lawlessness will be increased, the love of many will grow cold.

Important Takeaways:

  • Running on Fumes: Macron Forced to Travel With Generator Truck as Unions Literally Cut Off His Power
  • Under massive pressure as a result of his controversial pension reforms, Macron is currently undertaking a public-relations blitz in France in the hopes of rallying the general public to his side.
  • However, his whistle-stop tours of various regions across the country have not been going well, with the President’s visits often being met with protesters noisily banging pots and pans in the hopes of derailing the PR stunt.
  • To make matters worse, trade unionists with access to the country’s national grid have also taken to cutting the power in areas where Macron is stopping in an effort to cause even further chaos for the head of state.
  • Such a scheme appears to be working, with French Broadcaster TF1Info reporting the President and his entourage as now bringing along a truck-mounted diesel electric generator when visiting an area, seemingly in an attempt to circumvent the cuts.

Medvedev says he’s Rooting for Texas on possibility of Secession from the rest of the states

Revelations 6:3-4 “when he opened the second seal, I heard the second living creature say, “Come!” 4 And out came another horse, bright red. Its rider was permitted to take peace from the earth, so that people should slay one another, and he was given a great sword.

Important Takeaways:

  • ‘I’m rooting for Texas,’ Medvedev quips about potential secession of certain US states
  • The secession of certain states from the United States of America could be a distinct possibility, Russian Security Council Deputy Chairman Dmitry Medvedev told participants in the Znanie (Knowledge) educational marathon on Tuesday, adding that he would “be rooting for [the state of] Texas” should it decide to opt for independence.
  • “A battle of annihilation on the part of political elites and economic clans could result in certain states splitting off, a scenario which is a distinct possibility,” Medvedev said. “These states already brag about their independence as regards highly sensitive issues, such as the right to institute the death penalty for criminals and various economic issues.”
  • “California and the ‘Lone Star State,’ Texas, are already asking to go their own way, and it seems that, just recently, such a scenario would have been viewed as absurd or, at least, very strange,” he continued.
  • “However, Texas has already laid the groundwork for holding a referendum, as the [Texas state] Republicans drafted a bill on the independence of Texas, as well as a Texas [state] bill on organizing the referendum itself. They have even come up with a legal rationale based on the alleged violation of Article 1 of the Texas Constitution,” the Russian official said.
  • “New bills have emerged this year, and so the most interesting things there [in the United States] are just beginning. I don’t know how you all feel, but personally I would be rooting for Texas, and we would see what interesting solutions they might come up with,” Medvedev noted.
  • The Russian Security Council deputy chief also pointed out that the world is witnessing today the progressive degradation of the US political elite, “when the real power in this country ends up in the hands of the so-called ‘deep state,’ with the country [ostensibly] being run either by charismatic but totally useless amateurs, or feeble old men”

China to work out peace deal in Ukraine most likely forcing Kyiv to give up territory

Revelations 6:3-4 “when he opened the second seal, I heard the second living creature say, “Come!” 4 And out came another horse, bright red. Its rider was permitted to take peace from the earth, so that people should slay one another, and he was given a great sword.

Important Takeaways:

  • China will work to mediate peace, Xi tells Zelensky in first call since war
  • Ukrainian officials have long been calling on Beijing to use its influence in Russia to help end the war.
  • Describing the phone call as “long and meaningful,” Zelenskiy tweeted: “I believe that this call, as well as the appointment of Ukraine’s ambassador to China, will give a powerful impetus to the development of our bilateral relations.”
  • Xi told Zelensky that China would send special representatives to Ukraine and hold talks with all parties seeking peace, Chinese state media reported.
  • China says it is positioned to help mediate the conflict because it has not taken sides.
  • Xi and Russian President Vladimir Putin signed a “no limits” partnership agreement weeks before Putin ordered the invasion.
  • Western countries say China’s 12-point peace proposal is too vague, offers no concrete path out of the war, and could be used by Putin to promote a truce that would leave his forces in control of occupied territory while they regroup.
  • Earlier this week, European countries raised alarm after China’s ambassador to France said states such as Ukraine that won independence with the break-up of the Soviet Union “don’t have actual status in international law.”
  • Beijing said its position on the independence of ex-Soviet states was unchanged.

U.S. to send clear message to North Korea in ‘Washington Declaration’ making U.S. deterrence more visible

Revelations 6:3-4 “when he opened the second seal, I heard the second living creature say, “Come!” 4 And out came another horse, bright red. Its rider was permitted to take peace from the earth, so that people should slay one another, and he was given a great sword.

Important Takeaways:

  • U.S. to send nuclear ballistic subs to South Korea to deter North’s threat
  • The White House said the agreement — dubbed the Washington Declaration — is the most significant arrangement since the Cold War.
  • President Biden and South Korean President Yoon Suk Yeol will sign the agreement on Wednesday as part of Mr. Yoon’s state visit to the United States.
  • A senior White House official told reporters that the arrangement is aimed at making U.S. deterrence “more visible” through the regular deployment of strategic assets, including a U.S. nuclear ballistic submarine.
  • The last time a U.S. nuclear submarine docked in South Korea was in the early 1980s, according to the White House.
  • The Washington Declaration won’t include the deployment of nuclear weapons to South Korea as it did during the Cold War, officials said. Instead, the U.S. will increase the number of military assets it sends to South Korea on a temporary basis, such as nuclear-armed submarines and bombers.
  • Under the agreement, the U.S. and South Korea will create a joint nuclear consultative group to improve the sharing of nuclear-related intelligence. It will focus on nuclear and strategic planning issues and give South Korea additional insight into how the U.S. plans “for major contingencies,” the official said.

De-Dollarization begins and France leads the way for Europe to follow

Revelations 13:16-18 “Also it causes all, both small and great, both rich and poor, both free and slave, to be marked on the right hand or the forehead, so that no one can buy or sell unless he has the mark, that is, the name of the beast or the number of its name. This calls for wisdom: let the one who has understanding calculate the number of the beast, for it is the number of a man, and his number is 666.”

Important Takeaways:

  • France brings de-dollarization to Europe by trading in yuan
  • Following news that Brazil and China agreed to trade in their local currencies, it emerged that a French company charged the export of liquefied gas (LNG) to China National Offshore Oil Corporation in the Chinese yuan. This is another sign that the inexorable process of de-dollarization has gained momentum and even spread to the European Union.
  • This should not be surprising given the difficult economic situation across the EU, meaning that companies will look after their own interests above all. None-the-less, the media has already characterized the transaction between the Chinese company and Total Energy in yuan as historic.
  • Meanwhile, the dollar, which once accounted for 70% of foreign exchange reserves, has now fallen to 59%. The process is ongoing, and will take a long time, but it cannot be halted. One of the initial goals of the BRICS association was de-dollarization.
  • The Chinese insist on payments in the yuan so that it becomes a reserve with the same respect as the dollar, Swiss franc, euro, and yen.

Hal Lindsay: America has moved from Post-Christian to Anti-Christian; How then do we proceed?

Luke 21:12 “But before all this they will lay their hands on you and persecute you, delivering you up to the synagogues and prisons, and you will be brought before kings and governors for my name’s sake

Important Takeaways:

  • Our Nation Has Rapidly Shifted From Post-Christian To Anti-Christian
  • A few years ago, we would often hear that the United States had entered a post-Christian era. Looking back, it’s amazing how fast post-Christian turned into anti-Christian.
  • Sadly, outrage against the Jesus of the Bible and His followers is growing in size and intensity.
  • The natural, human, fleshly thing, would be to respond in kind. That means answering hate with hate. But that’s not what Jesus said to do. These are people for whom He died. Our goal is not to outwit them, make them look foolish, or show them that we, too, can curse like sailors. Our goal is to win them to Christ.
  • We must not respond by hiding. We should not hide our eyes, pretending that this is just another societal phase, and that all things continue as they have from the beginning. Neither should we hide by retreating into our homes, never venturing beyond our “safe” neighborhoods, and by hunkering down in churches that refuse to engage the world.
  • In any case, hiding will not long remain an option. When a tornado is ripping apart your home, hiding your eyes does not make you safer. There comes a point when you can’t pretend that everything is normal…
  • Hiding is fear-based, and our response must be faith-based. Understand what’s going on. But don’t forget that the most important part of any situation is that the God who created all things is still in charge. So, do what He says.
  • In Matthew 5:44, Jesus gave us explicit instructions. “Love your enemies, bless them that curse you, do good to them that hate you, and pray for them which despitefully use you, and persecute you.”

Michael Snyder points out possibilities for the departure of Tucker from Fox

Important Takeaways:

  • 5 Theories That Are Swirling Around the Internet About Why Fox News Fired Tucker Carlson
  • 1 The Dominion Lawsuit
    • Losing 787.5 million dollars can motivate a company to make big changes, and many news outlets are pointing out that the firing of Tucker Carlson has come very shortly after the settlement with Dominion was revealed
    • But apparently there are some inside Fox News that are pouring cold water on this theory…
    • The Denver-based company, which last week settled its $1.6 billion defamation case against Fox News for $787.5 million, did not have any influence on Fox and Carlson’s decision to part ways, people with knowledge of the situation tell TheWrap. Dominion has already collected its payout from Fox News and had no comment on Monday’s development.
  • 2 Big Pharma
    • Less than a week ago, Tucker brutally attacked Big Pharma and their COVID vaccines during one of his monologues.
    • Robert F. Kennedy Jr. is suggesting that this is the real reason why Fox News canned him…
    • Fox fires @TuckerCarlson five days after he crosses the red line by acknowledging that the TV networks pushed a deadly and ineffective vaccine to please their Pharma advertisers. Carlson’s breathtakingly courageous April 19 monologue broke TV’s two biggest rules: Tucker told the truth about how greedy Pharma advertisers controlled TV news content and he lambasted obsequious newscasters for promoting jabs they knew to be lethal and worthless. For many years, Tucker has had the nation’s biggest audience averaging 3.5 million — 10 times the size of CNN. Fox just demonstrated the terrifying power of Big Pharma.
  • 3 Rupert Murdoch and Fox News Management
    • Fox News announced the stunning departure of its top-rated host Monday with no explanation, but people familiar with the situation who were not authorized to comment publicly said the decision to fire Carlson came straight from Fox Corp. Chairman Rupert Murdoch with input from board members and other Fox Corp. executives.
    • The newspaper is also claiming that allegations made by Abby Grossberg played a major role…
    • Carlson’s exit is related to the discrimination lawsuit filed by Abby Grossberg, the producer fired by the network last month, the sources said. Carlson’s senior executive producer Justin Wells has also been terminated, according to insiders.
    • Grossberg was moved off of “Sunday Morning Futures With Maria Bartiromo” and onto “Tucker Carlson Tonight,” where she alleged she was bullied and subjected to antisemitic comments, according to a lawsuit in New York.
  • 4 January 6th
    • Tucker Carlson got into a lot of hot water for exposing what really happened at the U.S. Capitol on January 6th, 2021.
    • Other mainstream news outlets have relentlessly characterized it as an “insurrection”, but the raw footage provided to Tucker by House Speaker Kevin McCarthy showed that wasn’t the case at all.
  • 5 Running For President
    • For years, there have been rumors that Tucker Carlson would run for president in 2024.
    • And now that he is free from his obligations at Fox News, many are claiming that he will pull the trigger on such a move…

Record snow from this winter is about to melt; major concern for Flooding as rivers still swollen from atmospheric rivers

Luke 21:25 ““And there will be signs in sun and moon and stars, and on the earth distress of nations in perplexity because of the roaring of the sea and the waves

Important Takeaways:

  • California Awaits ‘Big Melt,’ Flooding, as Temperatures Rise
  • California is about to begin the “big melt” — the thawing of trillions of gallons of frozen water, currently sitting atop the Sierra Nevada mountains and about to make its way down into the Central Valley floodplain.
  • As the San Francisco Chronicle warns, this year’s swollen rivers “are going to run much higher, faster, colder and for longer than they normally would, posing risks to the hordes of summer lovers who raft, kayak, swim and fish them.”
  • Already, heavy rainfall and the beginning of the spring thaw have caused a historic freshwater body, Lake Tulare, to reemerge in the southern Central Valley, flooding many farms and cutting off roads.
  • Fears of flooding are compounded by frustration that the state has not managed to build new infrastructure to store the water for future dry seasons.

Revelations 6:3-4 “when he opened the second seal, I heard the second living creature say, “Come!” 4 And out came another horse, bright red. Its rider was permitted to take peace from the earth, so that people should slay one another, and he was given a great sword.
