Blow the trumpet in Zion, And sound an alarm in My holy mountain! Let all the inhabitants of the land tremble; For the day of the LORD is coming, For it is at hand:
I’ll admit that this update is extremely heavy on the riots which have been going on throughout the US. While there have been quite a few things happening around the world, my focus has been drawn to watching the uptick in activity surrounding the current civil unrest. That being said, I get the feeling that we may be less than a day away from a joint US/Israel attack on Iranian nuclear sites. I could be wrong on that one but the pieces I’m putting together seem to point to that. I’m not sure how that will affect gas prices but I’ll for sure be filling up my tank as soon as I hear that the attack started.
As far as the protests/riots: I don’t really get into this in the news but I wanted to speculate a little bit. And it should be noted that this is definitely me being a crazy conspiracy theorist. IF there’s going to be a greater war in the Middle East, and IF Russia is about to respond to Ukraine’s previous attack on their nuclear bombers by making an attack which is larger than NATO is prepared to let go, and IF China is ready to make their move on Taiwan (as their recent aircraft carrier activities might indicate) and they may want to limit the impact of US ability to respond, then it would maybe be a good idea for the US to find a reason to position military personnel throughout the country without letting on that they’re there for potential defensive reasons.
In case you missed them, here are the links to the two updates since last Wednesday.
I want to add, there’s a lot of videos of riot footage in this update. I try to avoid posting too much foul language but there’s probably some that gets through. So just know that before you click play.

One World Government (Rev 13:3)
US Front
The Mexican President has made a speech where she has directly called for more protests in the US from Mexican citizens. This makes it feel like the mask is coming off and it’s an invasion. She starts out her message by coming out against violence and calling for peaceful protests, but she definitely is calling for protests.
Donald Trump, when asked what he thought of Gavin Newsom daring Bord Czar Tom Homan to lock him up, responded that he would arrest him.
Donald Trump has said that anyone who attempts to protest his birthday par- Er, I mean, military parade, “will be met with very big force.” I’ve made no secret of my sour feelings toward the idea of this parade, and I think that if any of our previous presidents had done this we would be calling this a despotic Soviet-style parade, but this is an even worse look. And the thing is, it’s almost certain to happen.
New Jersey Rep LaMonica McIver, who was caught on video assaulting an ICE officer while local Democrat politicians attempted to break into a Federal facility, was indicted by a Federal Grand Jury on 3 counts related to impeding Federal Officers from performing duties, which is not too dissimilar to the charges brought against many who went to prison for their actions on January 6th. If she is convicted she could go to prison for up to 17 years.
The leader of al-Qaeda in the Arabian Peninsula (AQAP) has now put out a video calling the Muslims in the US to perform jihad and to assassinate US officials, naming Donald Trump, JD Vance, Marco Rubio, Pete Hegseth, and Elon Musk. It feels weird for there to be a call for the assassination of the US President and it’s not even close to the top story of the week.
Meanwhile, Washington DC is getting ready for Trump’s birthday parade, with Tanks being brought into the city. What could possibly go wrong…
At 3am on Wednesday, 6/11, Elon Musk admitted that he regrets his tirade he engaged in on X against Donald Trump.
This probably isn’t shocking to anyone but that may say more about how bad things are than anything. Airlines have been selling your information to the Department of Homeland Security.
The Marines have been deployed in a support role and are not to be engaging with rioters. A Marine Viper helicopter was seen flying over LA.
An LA News Anchor, Marc Brown from ABC7 Eyewitness News, just had a moment which may end up being this summer’s new “fiery but mostly peaceful”. He said that the rioters were “just a bunch of people having fun watching cars burn.” He said this in defense of them, and why we shouldn’t attempt to add the police into the mix. This is the media that’s speaking to those who still watch the news. These are the people we’re trying to live next to every day, and these are the people who will be protesting this Saturday.
Protests have turned to riots in both Dallas and Austin, Texas.
A townhall put together by NoKings (the organization who are putting on the ‘protests’ this weekend) is being hosted by Randi Weingarten.
Randi Weingarten is currently the President of the national teachers union (American Federation of Teachers). Why would a teacher be leading a townhall on political protests against the deportation of illegal migrants? That’s a great question! Weingarten was a teach for 6 years between 1991 and 1997; since then, she’s moved into union work. But that’s not really the most pertinent information here. She’s previously been a board member for the National Democratic Institute (NDI), which is a subsidiary of the taxpayer funded National Endowment for Democracy (NED) and a US branch of Socialist International (which is also related to Democratic Socialists of America), the group which has a history of instigating color revolutions all throughout Eastern Europe. So what you’re seeing is a woman who has a history of leading an organization which is known to foment revolutions via protests and riots, helping instruct a group before they put on protest all over the country.
On Monday I highlighted two specific protests in my local area but I didn’t have too many details on them. I’ve been able to figure out a little bit more so here are links to the event details for both of them: Wheeling Island; Elm Grove, as many of my readers live in the area. My advice would be to stay at home if you don’t need to go anywhere. Most likely, there won’t be much happening but don’t take the chance of you don’t have to.
CA Gov Gavin Newsom has made a (campaign?) speech where he blames all of the riots in LA (and elsewhere, I guess) on Donald Trump. In what was clearly an acted out piece of theater (he even gives a few well timed exasperated exclamations) Newsom states that until Donald Trump federalized the National Guard there were only a few peaceful protests, but afterward protesting spread everywhere. While I actually agree that Donald Trump wants the visual of leftists rioting in the streets, the facts don’t bear out Newsom’s claim as it was out of hand well before any troops were called in.
Open Source Intel on X (who gathers intel and puts it all together for us) has released a list of cities to watch, but this isn’t an all-inclusive list. We’re already seeing rioting in cities other than these.
Images have begun to surface of “Bionic Shields” being handed out to rioters throughout LA. These protective face masks cost at last $60 each and hundreds of them are being handed out of the back of pickups to rioters before they enter into the fray.
An 8pm to 6am curfew is set to go into effect this evening. It’s amazing that this didn’t happen days ago but I guess Karen Bass is finally starting to understand that she may not be able to crawl out from under this one. 23 business were vandalized and the local government’s inaction may end up making these business leave the city.
Chicago
Large Crowd marching through downtown Chicago.
The bomb squad has been dispatched after a rioter is seen entering the sewer system and planting a suspicious object. This is especially important when you consider that there are major protests planned for this coming Saturday. Things can be dropped places and they will then be staged for Saturday.
Video of fireworks being fired at police.
Denver
Police have declared an unlawful assembly and begun arresting people.
New York City
Rioters seen carrying “8647” signs. Ok, maybe ‘signs’ is a bit too much. Maybe it’s more of a piece of paper with writing on it, but it wasn’t easy getting materials from they/thems mom’s basement.
Arrests are ongoing in the NYC protests.
Protestors in NYC are focusing more on Gaza than they are on Mexican migrants

Global Agenda
Bilderberg 2025 is about to start. This year’s meeting goes from 6/12 – 6/15, and it’s taking place in Stockholm, Sweden at the Grand Hotel at Blasieholmen. For the past few years this meeting has been much more in-your-face than it used to be but I’m actually having trouble finding as much as I’ve been able to, as of late. Maybe they’re just running behind but it’s also possible that they’re just trying to return to their roots as a secret power group. However, normally when the Bilderberg Meeting happens in Stockholm it takes place more on the outskirts of the city, where it’s easier to secure the surrounding area. This time, the meeting is taking place in the middle of the city, so they may still be a bit more open. Below is a decent rundown of what could be happening at this year’s get together.
Greta Thunberg has officially boarded a plane and is on her way to France. She apparently hasn’t been on a plane in quite a few years. Once she arrived back in Sweden she was greeted like a national hero. I wonder if she’ll find her way to Bilderberg…
Benjamin Netanyahu’s office stated that in his talks with Donald Trump on Monday, Trump said that they have a meeting with Iran on Thursday and the US has gave them a very good deal and this will be the last chance. Initially Donald Trump’s 60 day timeline that he gave would’ve ended in May but when they started negotiations I guess that 60 days restarted. Well, Thursday will be day 61. I wouldn’t be surprised if the actual attack takes place on Saturday, right as the Military Parade is taking place.
BREAKING: The US Embassy in Iraq is evacuating due to heightened security risks. Coincidentally, Iran just said they’d attack US outposts in the Middle East if the US helped Israel attack Iran…
Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas has called for the disarming of Hamas and has proposed placing International troops in Gaza. This is in a letter he sent to French President Emmanuel Macron ahead of the June 17-20 UN Peace Summit which will focus on a two-state solution in Israel. France and Saudi Arabia are leading the summit and getting Abbas to make movements toward removing Hamas from power will make this a much more desirable outcome for quite a few nations.
Donald Trump is finally admitting publicly that he is growing “less confident” that he will be able to reach a deal with Iran.
This may be related to the last news item: Donald Trump has sent a message to Benjamin Netanyahu that “the war is exhausting itself – finish it.” He was speaking of the current Gazan conflict but I get the feeling that he was actually giving Israel the go ahead for the Iran attack. What better way to finish the Gazan war than to cut off the head of the snake?
Gog & Magog (Ezekiel 38-39)
China has deployed two Aircraft Carriers into the Pacific. China is saying that they’re performing routine exercises but there’s not word yet on where they might be going.
Earthquakes in Various Places (Matt 24:7)
There has continued to be an uptick in earthquakes all over the world. In the last 2 days there have been 5 earthquakes greater than a 5.0.
