About this episode

The episode discusses the potential regionalization of the Middle East, Trump's executive orders from a biblical perspective, threats to homeschooling, and harmful resources for vulnerable individuals.

The Middle East might be heading towards regionalization under a European Union model, according to Hope for Our Times founder and pastor Tom Hughes in an interview on The Sentinel Report with Alex Newman. In fact, the Bible speaks repeatedly through prophecy about the Middle East, and Hughes offers valuable insight into what might come next. Shifting to domestic issues, Pastor Jim Garlow, the author of The Executive Orders of President Donald J. Trump: A Biblical Perspective, joins the show to highlight positive wins for believers through some of Trump's actions. On education, E. Ray Moore, the founder of Exodus Mandate and the chairman of the board for Public School Exit, discusses legislative threats to homeschoolers across the states. Focusing on Connecticut, Newman and Moore analyze legislation that would require parents to obtain approval from child protection services to homeschool. Finally, Jaime Brooks, a former suicide hotline operator, blows the whistle on harmful resources provided to the most vulnerable, normalizing and grooming harmful actions such as self-harm and transgenderism.
