Peace Attempts Going Global - Led by U.S. President Trump

Pastors Josh Schwartz and Ken Mikle keep up Jan Markell's cracking pace with timely and timeless interviews and commentary, following Jan's recent stepping back from daily production duties.
Some excerpts and take-aways from this podcast with Pete Garcia include:
- A quick and firm dismissal of the notion that President Donald Trump is the Antichrist: "NO, He wasn't born within the confines of the old Roman Empire (Daniel 9:26 was very clear about this). Trump was born in Queens, New York. A very large area, but certainly doesn’t include the U.S.!"
- "Right now, there's a bunch of beta males running the countries of Europe – Macron, Starmer, etc. They see the impact of an alpha male, and he’s the archetypal guy the Europeans want . . . they’re fascinated with Trump. So they're clamoring for their own version of a very strong leader like him, to unite their highly fractious countries together – like the U.S. It will take a massive crisis to bring them together . . . out of that crisis, when it comes, will arise the strong leader they crave. But it won’t be a benevolent leader like Trump. It will be the Antichrist."
- What will the compromise of a peace deal mean to Ukraine, if Trump can finally broker one?
- What are Garcia's predictions for the Israel / Gaza situation?
- Garcia comments on the deployment of 400 armed National Guard troops, to “take the Capital back” Washington DC in “Liberation Day”, as dubbed by President Trump - and reframed by the mainstream media as “Trump’s Takeover of DC”. "The reality is that the President is attempting to clean up the mess the Obama and Biden Administrations allowed the lawless, squalor-filled country’s capital to become. They aimed to gut the inner cities with crime and chase out the residents by making it unliveable . . . and then bring in their own mates to re-establish themselves in gentrified inner cities. But this is the nation’s headquarters - and it's now got gangs like MS13! DC has been at boiling pot with all kinds of nefarious activities. The Democrats engineered this deliberately, because they can get these groups to rise up (by paying them) at a moment’s notice, funded by the likes of George Soros’s Open Foundations Society."
- "Police have had to militarise, just to foot it on an even playing field with the criminal elements that have taken root, along with many other U.S. cities. The Left and the wicked have allowed lawlessness to flourish, so there has been no option but for the increasing militarisation of the police forces. It’s not a good norm to create, though because - while it's OK while President Trump is in charge - imagine if the next person that gets into power is worse than Kamala Harris! Imagine the implications of these kinds of armed authorities if deployed against Christians. It’s also setting up the infrastructure for the same militarised police forces to be rolled out nationally, as a knee-jerk reaction to some national crisis."
- "Far better that the communities involved demand better answers of the politicians. The key starting point would be the speaking out from the pulpits against wokeness and lawlessness, but unfortunately the vast majority are silent.”
