    In Venezuela Trump left the same communist regime in power. If you are going to rescue a nation from a communist dictator, you should be able to topple the vicious regime. I am sad to say Trump is all about the headlines. He doesn’t accomplish much else.

    I was reading on X, the former Twitter, that Saudi Arabia and Qatar were secretly pressuring the U.S. not to take military action against Iran, arguing, in a way, the risk of instability in the global oil markets. Isn’t it interesting that the world’s largest Sunni power bloc is supposedly asking the U.S. to refrain from overthrowing the supreme representative of the Shiite world in the Middle East? Perhaps they fear that the natural effect of Khamenei’s downfall would be the encouragement of a popular revolution within their own borders?

    That is exactly what I believe will happen. Just look at Syria. And if it happens Europe will be in terrible trouble. Be careful what you wish for.

    Russian Orthodox Christmas 2026 Moscow.

    Wow. If this is not AI it’s one more proof Russia has converted or at least is on a sure path to conversion as Medjugorje and other prophecies have indicated.

    Compare that to how we often celebrate Christmas in the west these days.

    Sorry for leaving a comment out of the blue.
    I'm almost certain it's AI.
    Edit: A closer look into the channel- unfortunately, it's AI.

    Sigh it is AI. It is getting better and better. Soon we will get lost with it. No way to tell.

    This is just a short post today because I feel like I received a warning. I was pondering the world, and how Maria Esperanza said of Venezuela, “it will start here“. Knowing that Venezuela has been in the news of late I decided to pray.

    I have told you that God has been relatively silent for awhile, but this day was different. I was praying a Rosary and I received a word in prayer. “Pray it will not be winter.”

    That was it. That was all that was said to me in my prayer. I recognized it from scripture.

    The whole passage states;

    So when you see the desolating sacrilege, spoken of by the prophet Daniel, standing in the holy place (let the reader understand), then those in Judea must flee to the mountains; the one on the housetop must not go down to take things from the house; the one in the field must not turn back to get a coat. Woe to those who are pregnant and to those who are nursing infants in those days! Pray that your flight may not be in winter or on a Sabbath. For at that time there will be great suffering, such as has not been from the beginning of the world until now, no, and never will be. And if those days had not been cut short, no one would be saved, but for the sake of the elect those days will be cut short. Then if anyone says to you, ‘Look! Here is the Messiah!’ or ‘There he is!’—do not believe it. For false messiahs and false prophets will appear and produce great signs and wonders, to lead astray, if possible, even the elect. Take note, I have told you beforehand. So, if they say to you, ‘Look! He is in the wilderness,’ do not go out. If they say, ‘Look! He is in the inner rooms,’ do not believe it. For as the lightning comes from the east and flashes as far as the west, so will be the coming of the Son of Man. Wherever the corpse is, there the eagles will gather. Matthew 24:15-28

    I don’t really know exactly what all this means, except I feel we must do as Jesus commanded in scripture. And I felt it important enough to tell you.

    I am not an eschatologist, nor do I proport to know timelines of events. I only know what I heard in prayer and that it matches something in scripture that Jesus told us to do. So for me, I will pray that our flight may not be in winter or on a sabbath. Prayer changes things.

    A few years ago, I read about an alleged vision that Padre Pio had regarding the Red Horseman of the Apocalypse, in which he explicitly said that it was a demon. I am not sure whether this account is authentic, but I was reminded of it yesterday. With all the geopolitical turmoil at the beginning of 2026, it came back to my mind, as if the ride of the Red Horse were a timeless event.

    So early in the year too. So very early.

    Proverbs 3:17-19

    17 Her ways are ways of pleasantness, and all her paths are peace.

    18 She is a tree of life to them that lay hold upon her: and happy is every one that retaineth her.

    19 The Lord by wisdom hath founded the earth; by understanding hath he established the heavens.

    Everything appears to be headed for a cliff. President Trump, in what I perceive as growing arrogance, has dressed in kingly robes; I only hope his advisors pull him back rather than allow him to lead us down. This is now my prayer. I no longer trust him. One of the latest indications is his plans to acquire Greenland, no matter the means.

    Lord have Mercy!

    Gold is going over $5000 and silver over $100 per ounce maybe this month and has tripled since last year. This did not happen during the Great Financial Crisis + Arab Spring, nor during the war in Ukraine, Syria, Trump's election, COVID and various lockdowns.

    These interventions show that the cartel behind Trump is desperate and using the last atoms of US military power before the economy collapses. Although silver is needed for AI technology, drones... tariffs have been introduced, China has banned the export of rare minerals from 1.1.2026 and all this about Greenland, Venezuela, Iran is just a race for rare minerals and oil, and so is the war in Ukraine, and partly in Gaza.

    It is illusory to expect that everyone will tolerate such behavior and that someone will not retaliate...

    As for the Saudis, Quatar and the like... They are afraid of the response of the Iranians, who have already announced that if they are attacked and are about to fall, they will attack all the oil facilities in the Middle East. This would mean barrel prices over $250, south of SA is Yemen with the Houthis who are Shiites and a proxy of Iran and who would get the green light for intensive attacks. This could bring the entire Western financial system to its knees, social unrest throughout Europe and the USA... With these aggressive threats, Trump is opening Pandora's box....

    No one really benefits from this, and we all have a lot to lose.

    One thing about Trump that is worth highlighting is that, unlike Putin, he is completely—and frighteningly—unpredictable. When a Russian attack on Ukraine seemed imminent in 2022, U.S. intelligence warned the world weeks in advance, even as part of the Russian media repeatedly denied the obvious, claiming it was merely “Western propaganda.” Now we have a man in command of American intelligence who, precisely because he leads the most powerful intelligence apparatus in the world, may himself act unpredictably when it comes to his own decisions.

    That being said, an attack on Iran could occur within months, days, weeks, or even hours. Just as there was a standoff over Venezuela in the final days of 2025 and at the dawn of 2026, the same pattern applies here. As for Greenland, the impasse could drag on for several more months, with him offering a “generous economic proposal” for annexation before resorting to military action.

    Many years ago, I watched a children’s movie called The Little Rascals (1994), in which Trump made a cameo appearance. At one point in the film, he tells a boy that he is the best kid money could buy. Now, with this attitude of trying to buy even countries with his money, it was impossible for me not to remember that scene.
