As World Liberty Financial raised more than half a billion dollars, President Donald Trump’s family took control of the crypto venture and grabbed the lion’s share of those funds

President Donald Trump has two crypto-focused dinners on the calendar this month — one aimed at deep-pocketed political donors, the other at meme coin millionaires. Both are poised to help him rake in millions. The first event, a $1.5 million-per-plate fundraiser set for Monday, is among the most expensive ticketed dinners in presidential history. The second, on May 22, offers access to Trump’s inner circle not for cash — but for holders of the $TRUMP token.

“For the love of money is the root of all evil: which while some coveted after, they have erred from the faith, and pierced themselves through with many sorrows.” 1 Timothy 6:10 (KJB)

On this episode of the Prophecy News Podcast, so many wacky things are happening it’s hard to know where to look first. A contest of sorts has played out across Europe, the United States and the Middle East in recent days as President Trump’s two older sons have pursued a blitz of family moneymaking ventures capitalizing on their father’s name and power, each seemingly trying to outdo the other. It is a rush to cash in that involves billions of dollars with few precedents in American history. A luxury hotel in Dubai. A second high-end residential tower in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia. Two cryptocurrency ventures based in the United States. A new golf course and villa complex in Qatar. And a new private club in Washington DC called Executive Branch that costs $500,000 a year just to be a member. The ‘money train’ has roared into town, but so far, there’s no seats available on it for the average American citizen like me and you. President Donald Trump promised us prosperity, saying he would bring in a ‘golden age’ of America. But so far, the only people that seem to be prospering are the Trump inner circle crypto warriors and the high rollers in Abu Dhabi. On this episode, we show you what’s going on over at World Liberty Financial and why you should be just a little concerned.

President Donald Trump shocked and angered the world today by posting and reposting a photo of himself as the next Roman pope, what possible message was he sending?

Unless you live in a cave, by now the news of a sitting United States president, Donald Trump, posting and then reposting an AI photo of himself as the next Roman Catholic pope has reached your ears and eyes. All the usual suspects have risen, immediately, to his defense proffering explanations like “he’s playing 4D chess”, “he’s trolling the opposition”, and “you just don’t understand his sense of humor” as if any of those nonsensical statement had any bearing on the conversation, they don’t. My father used to tell me that, when someone did something for which there was no good or rational explanation, they were “sending you a message”, and that’s exactly what’s happening here. The only question, what message?

“This know also, that in the last days perilous times shall come.” 2 Timothy 3:1 (KJB)

100 days into Trump 2.0, even the casual observer can discern that this Trump has almost nothing in common with the 2016 Trump 1.0. The first Trump administration was positively light-hearted compared to this administration that is filled with dark foreboding combined with a manic rush forward. Forward to where exactly? I look around, and so far, there are no Epstein files, no JFK files, no UFOs and aliens files, no explanation for the drones, food prices still high, gas prices still right around $3.00 (here in Florida), no end to the war in Ukraine, and the list goes on and on. All my friends voted for Trump last November, and nearly all of them are experiencing the same sense of perplexity as I am about this administration. Pope Donald VI? Hmm. A US president rules over 350 million, but the pope over 1.4 billion. That’s power.

Yes, sitting US president Donald Trump actually posted this to his Truth Social account, and the official White House X channel reposted it. What is the message here? https://t.co/Aap0ry3c1m

— Now The End Begins (@NowTheEndBegins) May 3, 2025

The first thing that comes to my mind, as a former Roman Catholic before getting saved in 1991, as I look at the Trump-as-pope photo, is that it signals not mockery as some have suggested but rather alliance. Remember back in 2020 when President Trump and Melania visited the shrine of Saint John Paul II and bowed and did obeisance there? Remember what he did right after that visit? He signed an Executive Order providing for “promotion of interfaith dialogue to solve problems and promote greater inter- and intra-religious understanding.” So Trump’s pope photo is sending a clear and direct message to the Vatican that he will fully support the next Roman leader.

STILL WAITING FOR:
• Bump in the economy
• Release of Epstein Files
• Release of actual JFK files
• Lower gas and food prices
• Release of actual UFO files
• Explanation for drone incursions
• The promised prosperity

— Now The End Begins (@NowTheEndBegins) April 30, 2025

Trump first posted the photo to his own Truth Social account, and that’s fine, we’ll file that under ‘artistic license’ and ‘freedom of expression’. Have at it. But…then that post was then reposted by the official White House page on X, causing the United States government to, by proxy, take an official position of supporting it. That’s not fine. We now have gone past ‘humor and trolling’ right into asking if Trump sees himself as a political figure, religious figure or both. Fun fact from your King James Bible: the Antichrist is both a political figure and a religious figure.

Lastly, we have the timing of it all. If Trump would have done this a few months ago while Pope Francis was alive, no one would have cared. Same for if he did it a few months after the election of the next pope. But to do it now, while the College of Cardinals are sequestered and actively engaged in the process of electing a pope, that signals disruption. But disruption of what and of whom? That’s the question.

I was very happy when Donald Trump won in a landslide last November, confident that we would soon experience an economic boom and that the great American train would be reset on her tracks. But a little over 100 days later, it’s hard to remain optimistic in the face of the unrelenting spiritual darkness coming out of the White House. I don’t know what’s coming next, but I’m bracing myself for anything. To me, none of this is ‘draining the swamp’ or ‘dismantling the Deep State’, but a frenzied and potentially uncontrollable descent into madness. Someone is having a laugh alright, but it’s at our expense.

Pope Donald?: Trump Posts AI Photo Of Himself As The Pope

President Trump posted an AI-generated photo of himself as the pope Friday evening, sharing the image a few days after he’ jokingly’ suggested he would like to be the next head of the Catholic Church, which will soon vote on the late Pope Francis’ successor.

Stocks surged after President Donald Trump announced a 90-day pause in tariffs, causing a stock market that’s been under extreme pressure the last 5 days to skyrocket

All the world’s a stage, And all the men and women merely players; They have their exits and their entrances; And one man in his time plays many parts, His acts being seven ages. Those words of William Shakespeare are not scripture but they certainly lines up with scripture to a very high degree. The end times are a multi-act drama that the prophet Isaiah calls the ‘strange act’ of God almighty. After sending the world financial markets plunging into economic uncertainty, President Donald Trump has issued a 90-day pause on his ill-conceived tariffs scheme.

“For the LORD shall rise up as in mount Perazim, he shall be wroth as in the valley of Gibeon, that he may do his work, his strange work; and bring to pass his act, his strange act.” Isaiah 28:21 (KJB)

Donald Trump has Main Character Syndrome in his very own stage play, and granted, he is the most-powerful man in the free world, but above and beyond that, there is no shortage of drama here on Day 1,850 of 15 Days To Flatten The Curve. What comes next? Everything! Have you noticed that with all the craziness, people have stopped talking about releasing the Epstein Files? Yeah. about that, nothing’s coming. Just like nothing’s going to come out about who really shot JFK, who is really behind the drone incursions, and what does the government really think about UFOs? Instead of answers, instead of the truth, we get bread and circuses. Like this one. Glad to see a pause on tariffs, it was a dumb idea to begin with and I hope it never comes back.

Dow surges 2,000 points, Nasdaq jumps 8% after Trump signals a 90-day pause on some tariffs

FROM CNBC: The S&P 500 gained 6%. The Dow Jones Industrial Average rose 2159 points, or 5.7%. The Nasdaq Composite jumped 8%.

“I have authorized a 90 day PAUSE, and a substantially lowered Reciprocal Tariff during this period, of 10%, also effective immediately,” Trump posted on his Truth Social.

It wasn’t clear if the pause would be for all nations or just some. Trump, in the same post, said he was raising the tariff on China higher again to 125%. Shares of the stocks hardest hit during this tariff battle led the comeback. Apple was up 7% and Nvidia surged 10%. Walmart gained 9%. Before Trump’s announcement, stocks were volatile during most of Wednesday’s session, dealing with a tit-for-tat back and forth between China and Trump. The EU also approved its first set of tariffs on the U.S. set to start April 15.

Stocks were trending higher with traders appeared encouraged Wednesday morning after Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent said he would be taking a lead negotiating role in tariff talks. Also, shortly after the market open Wednesday, Trump urged investors that now was “a great time to buy.”

Anxiety around the rollout of the tariffs fueled a four-day rout for stocks. Over the course of the previous four trading sessions, the Dow lost more than 4,500 points, while the S&P 500 sustained a 12% loss. The Nasdaq Composite was down more than 13% in that period. READ MORE
