Can you imagine the absolute panic as Trump’s tormentors encounter one setback after another?

We’re not going to follow every twist and turn of the legal cases, but none are looking too promising for those that fear what will happen if he should win the next presidential election.  Not that he didn’t win the last one, but maybe it’s for the best.  After all, the whole country has seen gas prices double as the pandering continues.  We’ve got to save the planet?  What about China and India?  Aren’t they on the same planet?  Trump is out talking about what he’ll do if re-elected, and you can bet those currently running the show aren’t listening.

Electric cars aren’t catching on.  They have to give rebates and special deals to sell them at all.  Not that some of them aren’t nice, it’s just not there yet. Maybe someday, but not today.  Meanwhile, gas prices have doubled and you don’t need me to tell you about inflation.

It seems as if the vaunted departments with which we’re all familiar are running interference.  Jail time for the lady who sold the diary?  Does that mean it will never come out?  The January 6, defendants are still rotting in jail, waiting for justice if there is such a thing on this Earth.  

We’ve got conflagrations that should never have happened, but could get worse. Iran, now able to finance terrorist organizations, is riding high. War has overtaken the Middle East, and our leaders are pandering to the supporters of the guilty parties. They’re screaming “Death to America” in Dearborn, Michigan, and none dares denounce it.  What, and deprive the pretender of a segment of his support?

Zelensky still has hat in hand, warning that without more assistance Ukraine will lose the war.

French President Macron has made statements indicating that he’s willing to commit troops.  It’s like they’re in a race to get another worldwide war started, and they don’t have any time to waste.  

But the dominoes are not in place, yet.  These events could lead to further developments that would be ominous, but the main players of Bible prophecy are not yet visible.  Not that they couldn’t show up at any time, and if the U. S. keeps going down this road things may come together sooner than we think.

It seems like our leadership doesn’t have our best interest at heart.  We’re being invaded along the Southern border, and all we get is rhetoric.  The “newcomers” are sleeping on the streets, under bridges, you name it. They’ve turned over whole hotels, with bills being paid by the government.  That means us.  All they can do is throw up their hands and pass out debit cards and court dates that we might not live to see.  You mean, we have no right to secure our sovereign border?  Who ever heard of such a thing?  

The eclipse passed directly overhead in Tyler, the moon all but obscuring the sun.  It was an incredible sight that we’d never seen before and probably won’t again.  There was a partial eclipse when I was in grade school, but nothing like this.  As the moon came directly between earth and the sun you could actually see the flames licking out beyond the perimeter.  They said animals would freak out, but there are horses in the pasture below the office, and they just kept grazing.  We were amazed as it got dark, and all the security lights came on.  What an eerie sensation to have it get dark in the middle of the day, and then it was a regular afternoon.  It puts things in perspective.

The mullahs would hope for “plausible deniability” if Yemeni rebels launch a strike on their behalf, says Iranian expert.

The Houthi movement that controls almost all of northern Yemen has received so-called “suicide drones” from Iran that could hit Israel, Newsweek reported in an exclusive on Wednesday.

The extremist Shiite group, officially called Ansar Allah, has as its slogan, “Allah is Greater, Death to America, Death to Israel, Curse on the Jews, Victory to Islam.” Its years-long attempt to take over Yemen has been steadily supported by Iran while being opposed by a Saudi-led coalition.

The Iranian Shahed-136 loitering munitions are said to have a range of 2,000 to 2,200 kilometers (1,240 to 1,370 miles), putting the Jewish state within striking distance.

The Houthis have also used Iranian-made UAVs to attack Saudi Arabia over recent years.

The report said that an anonymous expert on Iran’s doings in the region confirmed images of the drones that the weekly had received.

“What [the Iranians] are trying to achieve is plausible deniability,” the expert said, “as in being able to strike either a U.S., Saudi, Gulf, or Israeli target and then having the strike traced back to Yemen, and hoping for deniability against any kind of retribution.”

As the closest U.S. ally in the region, Israel has been on high alert for weeks in case Tehran decides to avenge the Jan. 3, 2020 American assassination of one of its most senior military commanders, Maj. Gen. Qassem Soleimani. The mullahs also blame Israel directly for the November assassination of its top nuclear weapons scientist, Mohsen Fakhrizadeh.

Israel has not admitted any responsibility for the targeted killing.

IDF Chief of Staff Aviv Kochavi openly warned Iran weeks ago not to try attacking Israel either directly or through any of its terrorist proxies. He said the army was prepared, whether for infiltration attempts by Hezbollah on Israel’s northern border, or missile strikes from further afield, such as by the Houthis.

On Sunday night, Secretary of State Mike Pompeo announced that the United States would be designating the Houthis as a Specially Designated Global Terrorist entity.

“These designations will provide additional tools to confront terrorist activity and terrorism by Ansarallah, a deadly Iran-backed militia group in the Gulf region,” Pompeo said. “The designations are intended to hold Ansarallah (the Houthi rebels) accountable for its terrorist acts, including cross-border attacks threatening civilian populations, infrastructure, and commercial shipping.”

The latest attack attributed to the Houthis was a Dec. 30 missile strike on the airport in Aden meant to kill the Yemeni prime minister and Cabinet members of a new government, who had just landed in the country. At least 25 people were killed and 110 wounded in the attack.
