From the World Health Organization, to USAID, to the U.N.'s Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs, it's no secret that President Trump has been pulling funding away from globalist organizations. This means they desperately want access to your money. In order to do that, there's a powerful, yet little known agency called the International Maritime Organization that is in the process of imposing the first global tax on humanity. With this tax they will have direct access to independent funding. This is basically a global shipping fuel tax supposedly designed to thwart carbon emissions and climate change. Keep in mind, if they can tax world shipping, there's nothing that can stop them from moving on to tax agriculture, air travel, energy production, civilian transportation and other things. With that income they can then fund armies, police, social engineering programs, propaganda campaigns and much more.

Usama Dakdok is founder of the Straight Way of Grace Ministry. He's the speaker on the daily radio broadcast, Revealing the Truth About Islam. Born and raised in Egypt, Usama learned about Islam just as every other student does in a Muslim country. He also studied for a university degree in Egypt which included the study of Sharia, which is Islamic law. He first came to America in 1992. The infiltration of Islam continues in the U.S. This past February, Crosstalk warned listeners about the formation of "EPIC City" near Dallas, Texas (EPIC stands for East Plano Islamic Center). The city will eventually have exclusive Islamic grocery stores, schools, elderly assistance centers and more. Just a few weeks ago, the Houston Chronicle wrote about thousands of Muslims that gathered at the Sugarland, Texas, town square for what organizers said was the largest, open air Iftar celebration in the region. Then at the end of March, the White House sponsored an Iftar dinner. There's also a CAIR (Council on American-Islamic Relations) linked event that hopes to place Muslim-Americans in federal jobs. These efforts prove how Islam is affecting America. Next on their agenda is an event set to take place on April 28th-29th. That's when the U.S. Council of Muslim Organizations is hosting the 10th annual National Muslim Advocacy Day in Washington, D.C. The event will bring in Muslim leaders, activists, as well as constituents from all across America. The goal is to directly engage with members of Congress as they promote the theme: Defending rights. Shaping policy.

Do you realize that the pain in your past can be overcome; that the sins you've committed or had committed against you and the guilt associated with that can become the victory of tomorrow? If you've been suffering under such weight, there's good news. You can obtain relief from life's deepest hurts while seeing how God can use your past as a blessing for others. In other words, while you may not forget what occurred in your past, it no longer has to serve as the controlling reality that forms your identity. How do we resolve any hostility we may have toward God because of our past? Amidst temptations and trials, what are the escape routes? What does it mean to end the denial game? How can people confront fatal addictions? What's the difference between forgiveness and cleansing? The answers to these and other questions are part of this broadcast that when followed, can be the launchpad toward healing and renewal.

Who is the target of this fearful destruction? Where is Babylon? In modern Iraq is where the Garden of Eden was located, and to the north of modern Iraq are the mountains of Ararat. In 1921, the name was changed from Mesopotamia to Iraq.

He is an author and the host of the radio broadcasts Faith & Freedom and Freedom's Call and the TV broadcast Freedom Alive. So much is occurring at near lightning speed. We are less than 100 days into the Trump Administration and just look how much up-ending has been done. Borders have become secure and great efforts are underway to remove those in our country illegally with emphasis on those who have committed some very atrocious offenses. The bloat of government is being deflated and downsized. DEI has been targeted for defeat on all levels and sanity is being restored so that we again recognize biological males as males and biological females as females. But at every turn activist federal judges have been usurping the power of the President to administrate. At the same time there have been both victories and battles going on over a number of significant issues. Over recent years efforts have been made to shut down conservative voices and bankrupt conservative organizations. The Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC) has represented a client that has been trying to bankrupt Liberty Counsel, and now Liberty Counsel is fighting back in an offensive position.

For some your mind may travel back to Biblical times when Elijah challenged the prophets of Baal and Ashtoreth on Mount Carmel. Others may think of the early Roman empire who followed polytheism. It may take you to the Middle Ages or it may make you think of practices that are void of knowledge of the one true God which happen in remote villages around the world. But did you know Paganism is running rampant right now in 2025 in the United States? There are those who celebrate Pagan Pride Day with events taking place in cities across the country. Specifically there is an annual event called Paganicon where pagans from all over converge. The most recent Paganicon was held in the Twin Cities area in Minnesota. Our guest attended Paganicon 2025 last month and is here today with a report.
