Secretary of State Rubio

Marco Rubio says the U.S. will not give sanctions relief to Iran in exchange for reopening the Strait of Hormuz.

If Iran wants to be able to move its oil again through the strait, they will have to reopen the straits.

If they refuse to do so, then we have other options available to us, but we would prefer to negotiate the opening of this.

Marco Rubio says there are indications that Mojtaba Khamenei is alive and becoming increasingly involved in decision-making.

A final thought from Mark Levin. Don’t always agree with Mr Levin, but he is right on this post. I totally agree. Rh

Mark Levin criticized President Trump’s demand from Israel to halt attacks on Hezbollah in Beirut:

WHAT IF HEZBOLLAH WAS A MEXICAN DRUG CARTEL FIRING MISSILES INTO OUR COUNTRY?

Simple questions:  What would we do if Mexican drug cartels fired thousands of missiles into our country, depopulating the Southwestern part of the United States?  Would we limit our response to defensive military action?  Would we halt attacking their main location because it was near a city?  What would we do?

Diplomacy By Peddlers

Trump is making the biggest mistake of his Presidency by allowing one failed, (Witkoff) and one connected (Kushner) real estate peddler to conduct foreign policy in the Middle East.  They have no clue to the mindset of the radical Islamist.  They don’t want money to rebuild their country. They can’t be trusted, they only stall and re-arm.  They lie and promise to compromise only to gain time to strengthen their position.

These two carpetbaggers negotiated the deal of the century with Hamas.  Really?  Now we see the same Barney Fife like mentality exhibited with Iran.  We call it a deal when we stop (supposedly) fighting to talk?  Evidence is clear that Iran has already started re-building some of the previously destroyed missile launching facilities.  We have pictures.   The art of the deal is not the important part, the actual deal is the primary issue.  There is no deal, none that Iran will actually agree to and most certainly none they will abide by.  Marco Rubio, where are you? We need an adult in the room.

We will once again leave a country in the Middle East the same as before.  Nothing changes.  Regime change needs to happen, but who?  The Middle East is a quagmire and always will be.  Age-old customs, rivalries, and religious wars have dominated the region.  I feel for the Iranian people who have been subjected to such horrors over the last 40 years.  Their plight is worthy of much prayer.  There is a revival happening in Iran now!  But can it overcome the evil power embedded in the elite?  Probably not.

The Biblical perspective is Iran will never be completely destroyed, because they play an integral part in prophecy.  Russia, Turkey and Iran will lead an axis of evil to attempt to destroy Israel in the future.  We don’t know exactly when, the Bible only gives us limited information.  We do know it will be at a time that Israel is living in some sort of peace and will seemingly be surprised by the invasion attempt. Peace and safety is the only clue the Almighty gives us in Ezekiel 38.  

God will fight for Israel to make his name known to all the world at that invasion, and then Iran will meet its day of destiny.  It won’t happen in this action, but someday…. Rh

Five Easy Ways Christians Can Get Involved in Politics – Harbinger’s Daily

According to one survey, an estimated 41 million born-again Christians chose not to vote in the 2024 election, including 32 million self-identified Christians who regularly attend church, and 14 million church-going evangelicals.

It seems the only time Christians are too heavenly minded is when it comes to voting and governmental issues. That is when we take a hands off approach to things that pertain to our freedoms and our quality of life. Voting is fundamental. We have the type of government we vote for. We have a choice, stand up and vote your Biblical values or follow isolationist Christians into bondage and slavery. “Big Government” is not our friend. Take the Save Act, overwhelming support by all Americans. Still not even a vote by a so-called Republican majority.

Pray, Engage, and Impact! Rh

Deja Vu All Over Again

I am in the Oval Office at the White House where we just had a very good call with President Mohammed bin Salman Al Saud, of Saudi Arabia, Mohammed bin Zayed Al Nahyan, of The United Arab Emirates, Emir Tamim bin Hamad bin Khalifa Al Thani, Prime Minister Mohammed bin Abdulrahman bin Jassim bin Jaber Al Thani, and Minister Ali al-Thawadi, of Qatar, Field Marshal Syed Asim Munir Ahmed Shah, of Pakistan, President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan, of Türkiye, President Abdel Fattah El-Sisi, of Egypt, King Abdullah II, of Jordan, and King Hamad bin Isa Al Khalifa, of Bahrain, concerning the Islamic Republic of Iran, and all things related to a Memorandum of Understanding pertaining to PEACE. An Agreement has been largely negotiated, subject to finalization between the United States of America, the Islamic Republic of Iran, and the various other Countries, as listed. Separately, I had a call with Prime Minister Bibi Netanyahu, of Israel, which, likewise, went very well. Final aspects and details of the Deal are currently being discussed, and will be announced shortly. In addition to many other elements of the Agreement, the Strait of Hormuz will be opened. Thank you for your attention to this matter!

President DONALD J. TRUMP

Mark Dubowitz, the chief executive of FDD, a conservative Washington, D.C.-based nonpartisan policy institute:

Epic Fury lasted 40 days.

The ceasefire has now lasted 60.

The U.S. and Israeli militaries won the war. But if the reported terms are accurate, the regime is now winning the ceasefire.

Another 60-day extension would only deepen Tehran’s advantage.

Ok so what we have is a preliminary agreement? An agreement largely been negotiated? Remember the Gaza peace deal of the century? Israel was within a couple of weeks of total victory, and Trump jumps in signs a ceasefire and demands Hamas give up their weapons. They never did. Ok now we start a war and are within a couple of weeks of finishing off Iran, we stop and start negotiating? We just left the dissidents in Iran up a creek without a paddle. Will this deal go the way of the Gaza ceasefire? Yep. I just don’t understand, please make me understand it. As long as Iran still have capabilities to make and deploy nuclear weapons, the won. They went toe to toe to Big Satan and won.

I feel the worst for Israel. They will have to deal with them in the near future. Mark my words, this isn’t over, in fact the fighting may have to begin again. When it does I hope Trump has learned his lesson and takes care of business. As of now back to status quo. Rh

Update:

Details of the signed MOU:

– Strait of Hormuz will fully reopen

– Iran will not charge transit fees

– US won’t pay any money to Iran

– Sanction relief on Iranian oil

– Lebanon is part of the ceasefire

– 60 days to negotiate nuclear issues

The American Rebellion Against AI Is Gaining Steam

By Amrith Ramkumar,  Katherine Blunt and Lindsay Ellis

The only thing growing faster than the artificial-intelligence industry may be Americans’ negative feelings about it—as former Google Chief Executive Eric Schmidt saw on Friday.

Delivering a commencement address at the University of Arizona, Schmidt told students the “technological transformation” wrought by artificial intelligence will be “larger, faster and more consequential than what came before.” Like some other graduation speakers mentioning AI, Schmidt was met with a chorus of boos.

In one poll after another in recent weeks, respondents have overwhelmingly voiced concerns about AI, a challenge to claims by industry executives that their technology would gain popularity by improving people’s lives.

Just recently I read another article that bemoaned the fact that AI would not only wreck havoc with “white” collar jobs, but also “blue” collar jobs as well. My main issue with AI is the fact we don’t fully, maybe we do in some high and mighty circles, understand the rapid growth of the industry. Many who pioneered AI are sounding the alarm. But, it may be too late to put the evil genius back into the bottle. Especially when it has a mind of its own. Rh

Prison Camps For ‘Zionists’: Democrats Scramble To Disown The Political Jew-Hatred They Actively Promoted – Harbinger’s Daily

At a time when antisemitism is becoming increasingly normalized within the Democrat party, a Texas Candidate has taken the escalation in Jew hatred a disturbing step further, with representatives denouncing her as the “first current political candidate [to suggest] concentration camps for American Jews.” In an alarming social media post,…

We are seeing the radical left take off their cloaks and bare their true feelings. Here is a shocking article that is unfortunately becoming more mainstream. Read it and weep for our nation. The spiritual war is moving from the closets to the public arena. The anti-christ spirit is alive and flourishing in America. We are living in “Prophetic Times.” Rh

New Data Center Equivalent to Setting Off 23 Nuclear Bombs Per Day, Professor Finds

May 11, 2026

Source: Futurism

A proposed “hyperscale” data center in Box Elder County, Utah, will create an enormous heat island that could devastate the area’s ecology, according to an expert’s analysis.

Dubbed the Stratos Project and backed by the celebrity venture capitalist Kevin O’Leary, the sprawling facility will devour up to nine gigawatts of energy, its developers say, which is more than double the electricity used by the entire state.

That epic energy bill comes with another cost, albeit the kind that won’t show up on the developers’ books. On top of the nine gigawatts of power, the facility will produce another 7 to 8 gigawatts of energy in the form of waste heat, according to Robert Davies, a physics professor at Utah State University who shared his calculations with The Salt Lake Tribune.

Wow is all I can say, the world is in an escalation period like no other in history. At least it seems that way. One after the other dire warning of what mankind may be doing is upon us, all for the nanny state to know and control all of our lives. Not the world I want to make my home. I am a citizen of heaven.

China Update 5/14

Secretary of State, Marco Rubio with China updates today.

US Secretary of State Marco Rubio tells NBC: China has confirmed that it does not support turning the Strait of Hormuz into a military tool, and that it opposes imposing fees on passage through the strait.

U.S. State Secretary Marco Rubio:

I think China’s preference is probably to have Taiwan willingly voluntarily join them.

In a perfect world, what they would want is some vote or a referendum in Taiwan that agrees to fold in. I think that’s what they would prefer.

Ultimately it’s featured prominently in President Xi’s mandate in the time he’s been in office. He’s made clear that what they call reunification, what they call it, is something that has to happen at some point.

We think it would be a terrible mistake to force that through force or anything of that nature.

President Trump:

President Xi would like to see a deal made. He said, “If I can be of any help at all, I would like to be of help.”

Anybody that buys that much oil obviously has some kind of relationship, and he’d like to see the Hormuz Strait open.

China has also agreed to buy 200 Boeing airplanes.

An Unfaithful Husband And A Bitter Wife

The back and forth between the World’s most powerful nation and a semi third-world wannabe has taken on the role of divorce court 2026.  Every day or two it seems the scorned wife (Iran) blows up and threatens the unfaithful husband (Trump) with humiliation.  Of course then Trump responds with “unacceptable”!  Back and forth we go in an almost daily stream more reminiscent of divorce court rather than two nations attempting to work out a cease fire. Can we get a mediator in the room, please.

One of Trump’s biggest problems, and his best advantage is that he says whatever pops into his brain.  Not always good for mediation, but does keep the enemy off balance.  So I can’t remember is this the third or fourth time Trump has threatened to blast Iran off the face of the earth?  Too many threats and not enough action.  Do it or stop saying it.  The U.S. is starting to sound like a bully, or Obama and his notorious red line in the sand.

Heres is my take:

  • Iran can’t be trusted, they lie
  • If a deal is made, Iran will break it
  • Trump has pressure at home; mid-terms, high gas prices etc
  • Bad advice from the advisors inside the White House
  • Get rid of Kushner and Witkoff, they are money hungry idiots

Just as with Gaza the war which was stopped too quickly, so it is with Iran.  In the case of Gaza it was simply wanting peace so badly that Trump overlooked the fact that throwing money at a religious war will not work.  Been there, tried that more than once.  How do you think Iran got the money to build and buy their weaponry? Obama and his pallets of cash, anyone?  The same thing has happened in Iran, we stopped too soon.  Or IMO we should have been more aggressive in taking Kharg Island, that would have stopped the global oil pressures, and opened the Strait of Hormuz.  Surely we had the firepower to do that with very minimal and possible no loss of life.  

Granted I’m a keyboard warrior when it comes to military intelligence, but come on, we had enough fire power to do the job.  Back to divorce court for another round of “he said”, “she said”.  Will this ever end?  Iran cares less about a solution than Trump does.  That does not bode well for the U.S.

Time will tell the endgame, but as of now the results I see in the future are not at all what I hoped for.  Let us also bear in mind the lateness of our time on earth.  We are in the last days, Iran will still be somewhat viable when Turkey and Russia join them to move against a somewhat peaceful and secure Israel. (Ezekiel 38). God is sovereign and it is all in His timing, but it does seem to be Déjà vu all over again. 

Up next a high pressure meeting with China.  

Keep Your Eyes On Turkey

Turkey is taking a significant step toward joining the global military elite by testing a missile that would put much of Europe and the Middle East within reach and eventually lead to the launch of real-time intelligence satellites, according to people familiar with the plans.

The country showcased an intercontinental ballistic missile at an expo this week, joining the US, Russia and only a handful of other powers that have the weapons. Turkey’s ICBM has a range of 6,000 kilometers (3,750 miles) and the plan is to test fire it in Somalia later this year at the earliest, the people said, declining to be identified when talking about sensitive defense matters.

As I said earlier in another post, Turkey is the next big Muslim country to be wary of in the Middle East. Leadership of turkey has openly said, “we will dance around Jerusalem”, and they are not talking about in friendship, but in the defeat of Israel. This is a NATO country that is a thorn in the side of Israel. Ezekiel 38 talks of Iran, Turkey, and Russia leading a coalition against a peaceful Israel. It will happen. Be wary of Turkey. Rh
