In just a few days, voters across America will head to the polls for what I believe is a critical moment in our nation’s history—a moment that I never believed would be possible in our great and storied republic. In a number of states and cities, from coast to coast, ballots will be cast for candidates who are proudly running on a radical political platform that praises and embraces the bankrupt ideology of socialism. I don’t know about you, but I never thought the day would come when a socialist would not only be on the ballot, but would actually stand a good chance of winning an election.

General Michael Flynn (Ret.), Trump’s first national security advisor, also suggested fraud was at work, pointing to a graph showing a massive surge in votes for Lula right at the end to push him over the finish line. Flynn quoted a friend on the ground saying, “This is a massive scandal in Brazil and goes to show that the country is nothing more than a banana republic.” Virginia Tuckey, Chair of Republicans Overseas Argentina, warned about the implications for Latin America and called for U.S. policymakers to take action. “Brazil is heading toward replacing Cuba and Venezuela as the nerve center of communism and international crime in Latin America,” she said in a statement.

During a lengthy sit-down interview with Fox News Sean Hannity, evangelist Franklin Graham boldly detailed to a largely secular podcast audience the list of extraordinary evidence showcasing that our world is living in the season of Jesus’ return. “Jesus is coming back,” Graham declared. “He is going to come back, and He is going to establish His throne here. There's gonna be a new Jerusalem. He is coming down, and He is going to reign. That is going to take place. When that's gonna take place, I don't know… but it's not gonna be that far down the road. Jesus told us to look for signs. In Matthew chapter 24, He gives us great examples of what's coming and what we ought to be looking for. If you look today, [you can see] the signs.”

If you’re like most Americans, you’ve had plenty on your mind leading into the midterms—inflation, immigration, healthcare, artificial intelligence, the economy, the Iran war, and control of Congress. But another issue has risen to the top of the nation’s agenda: Israel. Congressional representatives are powerful. Congress controls funding, shapes sanctions, and influences American diplomacy. The men and women elected in November will determine whether the historic U.S.-Israel relationship remains strong or continues undergoing the most significant political reassessment in generations. When you enter the voting booth, you won’t see Israel’s name on the ballot. But make no mistake: Israel is there.

“We are still waiting for the true results,” he says. “The Likud is the biggest party in Israel,” he says to cheers. “The right-wing bloc has a clear, decisive majority among the Zionist public,” he says, “among the Jewish public and all those who support the state.” For this reason, he says, “We need a right-wing, national, strong government. That’s what has to be done.” It is unthinkable “to endanger Israel and set up a government that relies upon anti-Zionist Arab parties,” he says, “parties that oppose our very existence, that regard Hamas as a charitable organization, that call our soldiers war criminals.”

This article should be entirely unnecessary because it expresses a Biblical teaching that is so obvious that it seems impossible to miss. Unfortunately, recent years have revealed that many professing Christians are deeply confused about what Scripture teaches regarding the Jewish people. Instead, they seem to base their views on whatever theological and geopolitical ideas are popular in the moment. Repeating antisemitic tropes and conspiracies about Jewish people is wicked. We see no shortage of these things from popular political commentators like Candace Owens, Tucker Carlson, and Megan Kelly. They often hide behind the lie that they are just asking questions, but what they are really doing is implying that the Jewish people are to blame for much of our society’s ills and that they secretly control our nation (or the world).

Anybody who understands the social pulse of Australia knows that the State of Victoria is the most socially progressive of Australia’s states and territories. Although many Victorians see that as positive, when it means the introduction of laws that directly oppose God’s principles governing life, believers see it as wicked. In a 15 October 2026 X post, Mr Carroll succinctly stated: “Abortion is healthcare. Your bank account and your postcode shouldn’t be a barrier. We’ll fix that.” To avoid appearing one-sided in my criticism of Labor policies, I will point out that the opposition party (who have traditionally been fiscally and socially conservative) have indicated they will also pledge free abortions, much to the disappointment of supporters who have traditionally turned to them in order to act as a counterweight to the anti-God agenda of the Labor Party.

Some worry the Mecca Agreement is aimed at countering Israel. Just a day after the pact was signed, Pakistan’s Defense Minister Khawaja Asif said the Islamic world “must unite to confront the common threat posed by Israel.” He added, “Israel poses a threat to all of us. Islamic countries must adopt a coordinated approach to address this threat.” Turkish leaders have also intensified verbal attacks against Israel and vowed to reconquer Jerusalem for Islam. A senior Israeli official said the alliance “is directed against Israel.”

We’re seeing Europe’s globalists paving the way for the Antichrist. They are throwing out the welcome mat. No, the title of Antichrist doesn’t belong to bumbling Emmanuel Macron, but in 2016, even The Economist magazine was calling him Europe’s savior. How God humbles the proud. As the head of France, no European leader today should be as ashamed as Emmanuel Macron, who casually enjoyed a Celine Dion concert while policemen were on fire in Paris and elsewhere. Now the world knows he's no savior. But there is one standing by somewhere. He will rise from obscurity. There have been riots and demonstrations in Greece, Spain, Italy, Germany, Austria, Belgium, Portugal, and beyond, but began in mid-September in France.

A Washington school district has agreed to stop imposing a policy that forced students to hide their Bibles in sealed envelopes. The district must also stop barring a Christian nonprofit from participating in certain school fairs. LifeWise Academy, a nonprofit which offers public school students voluntary Bible education during school hours, challenged the policies in a lawsuit with the help of First Liberty Institute. As part of the settlement, Everett School District must publicly apologize and pay $275,000 in attorney fees, as well as provide religious liberty training for school board members.

Moses had seen many miracles. He had heard the voice of God. He had seen the Red Sea open up, water flow out of a rock, manna out of the sky. But he wanted to see the Lord’s face. I think that spiritually, we’re not going to be satisfied until we see the Lord face to face. All of our worship experiences on this earth, as good as they might be, were never meant to satisfy, but only to whet our appetite for that transformative moment when we’re in the presence of God.

Indeed, some analysts — such as the Argentine Agustín Laje — have argued that Brazil is experiencing a “judicial dictatorship” orchestrated by officials close to Lula, including the notorious Judge Alexandre de Moraes. Undoubtedly, despite the pressures, the Bolsonaro family emerged as the big winner of the first round. God willing, Flávio will win the runoff — and with him, the Western values that Brazil so urgently needs to restore and greatly benefit hemispheric security following four years of leftist rule and the rise of drug trafficking and organized crime.
