SHARE NOW THE END BEGINS:

An autonomous semitruck recently completed the world’s first driverless trip, which saw the vehicle travel 80 miles in Arizona without a safety person at the wheel or any human intervention.

Elon Musk may get the lion’s share of the headlines with his work on automating his Tesla electric vehicle, but he better watch out because other companies are beating him to the punch with seemingly better technology. A company called TuSimple just accomplished something that no other company has, the world’s first fully autonomous, driverless road trip of a an 18-wheeler all the way from Tucson to Phoenix in Arizona. What does this have to do with the Mark of the Beast? Glad you asked!

“And he causeth all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and bond, to receive a mark in their right hand, or in their foreheads: And that no man might buy or sell, save he that had the mark, or the name of the beast, or the number of his name. Here is wisdom. Let him that hath understanding count the number of the beast: for it is the number of a man; and his number is Six hundred threescore and six.” Revelation 13:16-18 (KJB)

Imagine how great it will be when all vehicles are self-driving, and all you need to do is get inside and sit down. Once the system is perfected you can even take a nap or work on documents on your mobile device, what a blessing. Not so fast. Students of Bible prophecy will immediatly see this as what it is, another giant reach of the One World System to make you a further slave to the global operation. Think about it, any vehicle that is completely autonomous is also a vehicle that can decide to not allow you to get inside and take your journey. Just picture that federal mandates require you to take the COVID vaccine, you decline, and the government sends a message to your fully autonomous vehicle to deny you access. No jab, no journey, and since they control your vehicle, they decide when you can leave and where you can go. That’s what’s coming sooner rather than later. In the meantime, enjoy the ride!

No human was at the wheel or inside truck during its 80-mile journey

FROM THE DAILY MAIL UK: The nighttime drive, which took place on December 22, started at a railyard in Tucson, traveled along 1-10 for one hour and 20 minutes and ended at a distribution center in Phoenix.

Along the journey, TuSimple’s Autonomous Driving System (ADS) successfully navigated surface streets, traffic signals, on-ramps, off-ramps, emergency lane vehicles, and highway lane changes in open traffic while naturally interacting with other motorists, according to the company. Cheng Lu, President, and CEO, TuSimple, said in a statement: ‘By achieving this momentous technical milestone, we demonstrated the advanced capabilities of TuSimple’s autonomous driving system and the commercial maturity of our testing process, prioritizing safety and collaboration every step of the way.

‘This test reinforces what we believe is our unique position at the forefront of autonomous trucking, delivering advanced driving technology at commercial scale.’

‘This year, we were laser-focused on putting our technology through a rigorous test on open public roads under real-world conditions, and to see all our hard work and dedication come together is extremely rewarding.’

TuSimple says that drivers represent about 40 percent of all trucking operational costs and that its virtual driver ‘can be operated for significantly less.’ The company also estimates that its technology saves about 10 percent on fuel-related costs compared to human-driven trucks. During the 80-mile journey, a lead vehicle scouted the route for unexpected obstacles about five miles ahead of the autonomous semi. Another vehicle trailed behind on-half miles that was prepared to intervene if necessary. TuSimple says it has 70 autonomous trucks globally and two million miles of road testing completed.

The truck uses the company’s own perception technology that allows it to see 360 degrees around the vehicle and more than 3,000 feet away. And its system is capable of performing 600 trillion operations per second. Over the last one and a half years, TuSimple has completed 1,800 runs that accumulate to 150,000 miles along I-10 in order to prepare for the truck’s lone journey earlier this month. And the company, plans to continue testing its driver-out program into 2022. READ MORE

World’s First “Driver Out” Fully Autonomous Semi-Truck Operating on Open Public Roads | TuSimple

On December 22nd, TuSimple made history by becoming the first to successfully test a fully autonomous semi-truck on open public roads without a human in the vehicle and without human intervention. The run took place the evening of December 22nd and required TuSimple’s upfitted autonomous semi-truck to begin its journey from a large railyard in Tucson, Arizona, and travel more than 80 miles on surface streets and highways, safely arriving at a high-volume distribution center in the Phoenix metro area. Along the journey, TuSimple’s Autonomous Driving System (ADS) successfully navigated surface streets, traffic signals, on-ramps, off-ramps, emergency lane vehicles, and highway lane changes in open traffic while naturally interacting with other motorists.

2025 Will Go Down For Among Other Things As The Year That Antisemitism Gained A Foothold Not Only In The MAGA GOP But Throughout America As Well

Published

on

SHARE NOW THE END BEGINS:

2025 was a seminal year for antisemitism and anti-Zionism not only across America but within the MAGA Republican Party

Stop me if you’ve heard this one. A man walks onto a college campus and says “I’m not antisemitic, I just hate Zionists. Free Palestine.” Pretty funny, yes? Or perhaps not, but either way some form of this “joke” has been told endlessly across the United States in 2025. “I’m not against Israel”, they say, “I’m only against Zion”. They advocate for the cutting off of all funding to Israel, and the establishment of a Palestinian state. And no, I am not talking about Democrats primarily, I am talking about half of the Republican Party MAGA Movement, or whatever they call themselves now.

The LORD shall bless thee out of Zion: and thou shalt see the good of Jerusalem all the days of thy life.” Psalm 128:5 (KJB)

What got me thinking about all this wasn’t something that wasn’t directly antisemitic, but when you think about it for a minute, it becomes quite chilling. Benjamin Netanyahu was visiting Trump in the White House over the weekend, where he made a very strange remark. When asked about selling US F-35 jet fighters to Israel’s declared enemy Turkey, Trump said “We’re thinking about it very seriously,” adding “I promise they’ll never use them on Israel,” while walking out of the room. “We’re not going have a problem.” Oh, I see. ‘Trust In Trump’ is it? How could he ever think, in a million years, that giving F-35’s to a country that has threated many times in 2025 to attack Israel could ever be a good idea? It’s a terrible idea, but given Trump’s recent affinity for striking deals with Muslim nations, it makes perfect sense. Just remember, Trump was an avowed antivaxxer right up to the moment he unleashed the COVID vaccine bioweapon. Trump is a lifelong friend of Israel right up to the moment he isn’t anymore.

At the recent meeting of Turning Point USA, antisemitism was on full display with a notable percentage of the participants. “Ben Shapiro is like a cancer, and that cancer spreads,” Steve Bannon said, to the cheers of thousands. Megyn Kelly said during a talk with conservative influencer Jack Posobiec at the conference that “there was a rift even before we lost Charlie… and it revolves around Israel,” NBC reported. For a group that seemed to speak with one voice when they help reelect Donald Trump last November, this is a paradigm shift to say the least. Take a look at what some of the most-notable influencers are saying now.

Some of the stunning 2025 antisemitic turns by MAGA influencers

  • Tucker Carlson: The former Fox News host (and current independent media figure) has been a prominent voice criticized for mainstreaming antisemitic ideas and white nationalist rhetoric, often focusing on “globalists” and questioning U.S. support for Israel. He has also hosted known white nationalists like Nick Fuentes on his show.
  • Candace Owens: The conservative commentator has made numerous controversial comments, including calling Israel “demonic” and promoting anti-Israel conspiracy theories. She frequently uses the term “globalists” to describe a cabal of powerful individuals, a widely recognized antisemitic dog whistle.
  • Nick Fuentes: A leader of the far-right “Groyper” movement, Fuentes is a self-described white nationalist known for Holocaust denial and overt antisemitic rants, who has gained a following among some younger conservatives within the MAGA movement.
  • Stew Peters: A far-right conspiracy theorist and podcast host who promotes Holocaust denial and claims that “primarily Jewish-controlled central banks” fund evil in America; multiple congressional Republicans have appeared on his show. 
  • Steve Bannon: An architect of the MAGA Movement, Bannon has been accused of making antisemitic comments and comparing Jewish commentators like Ben Shapiro to a “cancer” on the conservative movement.
  • Megyn Kelly: The Anti-Defamation League (ADL) accused Kelly of invoking antisemitic tropes when she claimed that Jewish commentators Ben Shapiro and Bari Weiss are “making antisemites”. The ADL stated that blaming Jewish people for the hate directed against them is a classic victim-blaming trope.

Christian, if you are an anti-Zionist, you possess a pathetically-low understanding of the Bible, in either Testament, and should be ashamed of yourself. Seriously. The Bible openly declares that God is a Zionist, and that the kingdom He will usher in during the Millennium will be a Zionist kingdom. If you are anti-Zionist, not only are you antisemitic, you stand in opposition to God Himself. How ’bout that?

And so all Israel shall be saved: as it is written, There shall come out of Sion the Deliverer, and shall turn away ungodliness from Jacob: For this is my covenant unto them, when I shall take away their sins.” Romans 11:26,27 (KJB)

As we watch America struggling with a very fast rising tide of antisemitism, why don’t you pick a side and stay there? You see, I believe my Bible, and I know how it all winds up, who wins, and how it all will go when the end times dust settles. So here and now, by faith, I stand on the side of the King of the Jews, on the side of His chosen people, the Jews, and with the biblical, and literal, physical, and earthly Zion which is the City of David. Where do you stand?

Why Did Gov. Tim Walz Approve A New Minnesota State Flag That Shows A Chilling Alliance With Flags Representing The Islamic Federal Republic of Somalia?

Published

on

SHARE NOW THE END BEGINS:

The new state flag of Minnesota approved by Tim Walz bears a stunning resemblance to the flags of the Islamic Federal Republic of Somalia

While Donald Trump and the Secretary of War Pete Hegseth distract us with meaningless ‘lethal kinetic strikes’ on drug boats in Venezuela, a much more serious and pressing problem is brewing right here at home in Minnesota. Not only are government actors within that state operating a crime ring in the high hundreds of millions of dollars, it would seem that Minnesota is rapidly becoming an Islamic state.

“When the righteous are in authority, the people rejoice: but when the wicked beareth rule, the people mourn.” Proverbs 29:2 (KJB)

As we have said many times, the greatest threat to the sovereignty and security of the United States of America, hands down and bar none, has always been and will always be Islam. This was something we recognized clearly under the multiyear reign of Barack Hussein Obama, but something we have conveniently forgotten here in the second term of Donald Trump who is courting Muslim favor like no other president before him. Today I want to show you the battleground state of Minnesota, and how it looks for all the world like a coup is underway. View the evidence and decide for yourself.

1). Radical Leftist governor Tim Walz approves a Somalia-themed new Minnesota state flag

As you can see in the graphic at the top of this article, the “new” state flag of Minnesota bears an undeniable and overwhelming resemblance to the flags found in the Federal Republic of Somalia, a region of the globe that is nearly 100% comprised of Sunni Muslims. Less than 1% of the territories are Christian and Shia Muslim. I am sure it’s just a crazy coincidence, but the Somali-born congresswoman Ilhan Omar has stated multiple times that she serves the interests of the Somalian people in Minnesota above that of the interests of the government in which she presides.

2). The Minnesota Somali Fraud Network

Federal authorities have uncovered several major fraud schemes in Minnesota, primarily related to the misuse of over $1 billion in federal and state social service funds during the COVID-19 pandemic. Of the 87 individuals charged in these cases, the majority are of Somali descent.

Key cases include:

Feeding Our Future: This was the largest single scheme, where a non-profit organization and its partners allegedly stole approximately $250 million from a federal child nutrition program by submitting fraudulent receipts and invoices for meals that were never provided. The founder of the organization was found guilty in this case.

Housing Assistance and Autism Services: Other separate but similar schemes involved fraud in programs providing housing assistance and therapy for children with autism. In one autism fraud case, an individual allegedly stole $14 million by billing Medicaid for fake sessions using unqualified staff.

State auditors and federal officials noted that the Minnesota Department of Education missed numerous red flags and failed to adequately address complaints, which critics argue allowed the fraud to balloon. Federal investigators have stated there is no evidence that any of the stolen money was funneled to the terror group al Shabaab, a claim that was investigated after political allegations were raised.

3). Minnesota as the new ‘Little Somalia’

Minnesota is home to a significant Muslim population, with Arab Americans nearly quadrupling from 2000-2022, and a substantial Somali community settling in the Twin Cities. The state has elected prominent Muslim officials, including the first Muslim Congressman (Keith Ellison, now AG) and Somali-American Congresswoman Ilhan Omar, alongside growing numbers in local government. A robust network of mosques, Islamic schools, and cultural organizations with terror ties like CAIR-MN are the predominate influences. In April of 2023, Minneapolis made history when it became the first major city in the US to allow mosques to broadcast the call to prayer using loudspeakers at any time. Before the change to a city noise ordinance, it had only been permitted to be put out between 7am to 10pm. The majority of Muslims in Minnesota remain unassimilated to American culture and way of life.

Bit by bit, and bite by bite, Minnesota is becoming an Islamic state with a state, led by elected Islamic representatives who are only too happy to encourage this transition. Governor Tim Walz is very proud of his new state flag, a flag that bears obvious allegiance to and solidarity with the Islamic Federal Republic of Somalia. America is under siege from within, and our ‘America First’ president isn’t doing anything of note to solve this problem other than just talking about it.

Harakat al-Shabaab al-Mujahideen, simply known as Al-Shabaab, is receiving funds from the Minnesota taxpayer, while Somali congresswoman Ilhan Omar simply shrugs her shoulders.
