The Trump administration said the U.S. will stand aside when Turkey’s military launches an operation against America’s wartime Kurdish allies in Syria, a significant shift in American policy that raises questions over the fate of thousands of Islamic State detainees.

To be honest, I don’t like this one bit. Turkey under the regime of President Recep Tayyip Erdogan is a full-on Sharia state who I wouldn’t trust as far as I could throw him. Not only that, the Trump administration is going to allow Turkey to not only invade Syria but to then attack the Kurdish rebels who are our allies in the fight against ISIS. This is a very, very bad move, and I hope and pray that President Trump changes his mind before Turkey begins war in Syria.

“I will break also the bar of Damascus, and cut off the inhabitant from the plain of Aven, and him that holdeth the sceptre from the house of Eden: and the people of Syria shall go into captivity unto Kir, saith the LORD.” Amos 1:5 (KJV)

But as long as we are discussing Syria, it’s a good time to remind ourselves just how much Syria, Damascus and the the former and soon to be region of Assyria figure into end times Bible prophecy. The Bible says in Isaiah 10:5 that the Antichrist is called ‘the Assyrian’, Isaiah 17:1 says that Damascus will be destroyed, and Amos shows us that the entire land of Syria and the surrounding region will be one of the main battlegrounds in the time of Jacob’s trouble leading up the Battle of Armageddon.

U.S. Won’t Stop Turkish Advance Into Syria in Major Policy Shift

FROM YAHOO NEWS: The Kurdish-led Syrian Democratic Forces have been a close U.S. ally in the fight to defeat Islamic State. But Turkey considers Syria’s Kurdish militants a threat to its national security and President Recep Tayyip Erdogan has said his forces were ready to begin a military operation against them in northeastern Syria imminently.

The decision represents a dramatic reversal for U.S. policy, which in 2015 provided air support for Kurdish militias to retake the critical town of Kobani from Islamic State and has since used Kurdish fighters as ground troops in the campaign to clear Syria of the group.

The shift could cast further doubt on the reliability of the U.S. in the region, in the wake of policy about-faces including walking away from the 2015 Iran nuclear deal that was painstakingly negotiated with allies who remain committed to the agreement.

As I have stated strongly before, and just to reiterate, if Turkey does anything that I, in my great and unmatched wisdom, consider to be off limits, I will totally destroy and obliterate the Economy of Turkey (I’ve done before!). They must, with Europe and others, watch over…

Trump defended Monday his desire to end America’s so-called “endless wars,” saying his country would fight only in it’s own interest. That sentiment has been welcomed by some, while leaving allies who rely on the U.S. security umbrella feeling nervous and exposed. An increasingly detached U.S. has also allowed rivals including Iran and Russia to pursue more aggressive foreign policies and expand their influence across the Middle East.

The Bible Timeline for the Battle of Armageddon and Gog and Magog

The 38th and 39th chapters of the prophet Ezekiel is where many students of prophecy get hopelessly tangled up because they have a lot of commonalities, but they also differ in many key aspects which prove they cannot be talking about the same war. It’s two different wars, separated by a minimum of 1,000 years. Let’s take a look and see what we find.

As recently as January, U.S. President Donald Trump had warned Turkey of economic devastation if it attacked Kurdish forces after a planned pullout of U.S. forces. A month earlier, Trump had abruptly announced his intention to withdraw all American troops from Syria, sowing confusion among allies and even American officials.

In the event, several hundred U.S. troops remained though, again, Trump is facing criticism for a decision that appeared to blindside the Kurdish forces on the ground.

One of Trump’s staunchest backers, Republic Senator Lindsey Graham, condemned the move as “short-sighted and irresponsible” and Senator Marco Rubio, another Republican, called it a “grave mistake that will have implications far beyond Syria.”

“This is going to lead to the reemergence of ISIS, and the biggest winner of all this will be the Iranians, and that’s too bad,” Graham told Fox News in a phone call.

Erdogan’s planned offensive aims to claim areas from Syria’s Kurdish militant YPG group and create a buffer zone inside Syria where he aims to settle many of the 3.7 million Syrian refugees currently residing in Turkey.

The president is seeking more than $26 billion in aid to build houses for about 2 million Syrian refugees he hopes to resettle. That would alleviate the burden on Turkey’s economy — and the criticism Erdogan has faced at home — at a time when a possible Syrian government offensive on the last rebel bastion of Idlib fuels fears of another wave of refugees heading north.

“The housing project envisaged by the Turkish authorities” is a “possible bonanza for Turkish construction firms close to the AKP,” Wolfango Piccoli, co-president at Teneo Intelligence, said Monday in a note, referring to Erdogan’s ruling party.

The market reaction to the news in Turkey was mixed. The lira dropped as much as 1.1% against the dollar, bonds fell, the cost to insure Turkish debt against default rose, and stocks gained 1.5%. Shares of cement maker Mardin Cimento headed for the biggest two-day gain in almost 20 years. The company has the closest cement capacity to Syria and is seen as a possible beneficiary of any Turkish led-construction drive.

What About ISIS and the Islamic State?

The Trump administration said Turkey would take responsibility for any Islamic State fighters captured in the area over the past two years. It gave no details and it wasn’t immediately clear what, if any, plan the NATO allies had agreed to handle the detainees or how they would be transferred to Turkish custody.

“United States Armed Forces will not support or be involved in the operation, and United States forces, having defeated the ISIS territorial ‘Caliphate,’ will no longer be in the immediate area,” the White House said in the statement released late Sunday after Trump spoke to Erdogan by phone.

For Ankara, the militant YPG is a mortal enemy because of its links to another Kurdish separatist movement that Turkey has been fighting for over three decades. The SDF, of which YPG is a key component, said via Twitter that a Turkish incursion would “reverse the successful effort to defeat” Islamic State. About 12,000 Islamic State militants and about 70,000 of their family members, who are currently in jails or camps, may be freed by “ISIS cells,” SDF said.

Erdogan said U.S. forces have started to withdraw from the border area following his phone call with Trump. Speaking at the airport in Ankara before his departure for Serbia, he said the number of Islamic State suspects in jails, including foreigners from Germany and France, are “exaggerated” and that a study was underway to determine steps to “speedily” process them. He did not elaborate.

Trump has characterized the U.S. military effort in Syria as a total victory, one that he has regularly touted on the campaign trail ahead of the 2020 election. At the same time, he’s insisted that the U.S. would bear no responsibility for any Islamic State detainees and gone so far as to threaten to release those fighters back to their countries of origin, which include several European nations whose governments have refused to take them.

“The United States Government has pressed France, Germany, and other European nations, from which many captured ISIS fighters came, to take them back, but they did not want them and refused,” the White House statement read. “The United States will not hold them for what could be many years and great cost to the United States taxpayer.”

Brett McGurk, a former U.S. envoy to the global coalition against Islamic State, said on Twitter that the White House statement “demonstrates a complete lack of understanding of anything happening on the ground.” READ MORE

U.S. Withdrawing Troops From Northern Syria

In a major U.S. policy shift, American troops are pulling back to make way for Turkey’s planned invasion of part of northern Syria. Turkey is targeting U.S.-backed Kurdish fighters that have been key American allies in the fight against ISIS. The abrupt change follows a phone call Sunday night between President Trump and Turkey’s president. Holly Williams reports.

Homeland Security Advisor Stephen Miller Says That Trump Is Going To Make Greenland Part Of The United States And Use Military Force If They Resist

Homeland Security Advisor Stephen Miller Says President Trump will make Greenland part of the United States to further its security interests

We warned you for the past two months that Donald Trump, on the pretext of fighting drugs, was going to take control of Venezuela to seize their oil reserves, that happened this past Saturday. Today we learned that Trump is going to make the American taxpayer foot the bill when he turns the whole thing over to Big Oil. But it gets worse. Breaking news tonight shows us Homeland Security Advisor Stephen Miller telling Jake Tapper on CNN that yes, Donald Trump is going to take Greenland.

“For God hath put in their hearts to fulfil his will, and to agree, and give their kingdom unto the beast, until the words of God shall be fulfilled.” Revelation 17:17 (KJB)

Why does Trump want Greenland so badly? First, for its strategic importance given is close proximity to Russia. Second, Greenland and its territorial waters are believed to hold the equivalent of over 31 billion barrels of oil, more than the proven reserves of Qatar, Brazil and other major oil and gas powers. Trump has courted the oil industry with promises to “drill, baby, drill” — something that’s now effectively banned in Greenland, an autonomous region within the kingdom of Denmark that prizes its largely untouched environment. Third, Greenland is a storehouse of rare earth minerals, graphite, copper, nickel, gold, tungsten, uranium, Titanium-vanadium and others needed to satisfy the demand to fuel his 6G Memorandum and Stargate AI mandates. Greenland has these things, and Trump is going to take them and with military force if Greenland resists.

IT’S OFFICIAL: The US is going to move on Greenland. Homeland Security Advisor Stephen Miller says that annexing Greenland is the “official position of the Trump administration” and it will take Greenland. This madman Trump is going to plunge the entire world into WWIII. pic.twitter.com/MO5MX4047D

Denmark’s Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen is not treating it like a joke. She said Trump should be taken seriously, adding that if the U.S. attacks a NATO country, “everything stops.” Frederiksen warning that a U.S. takeover would mean the end of NATO as we’ve known it. “If the United States decides to militarily attack another NATO country, then everything would stop — that includes NATO and therefore post-World War II security,” Mette Frederiksen told Danish television network TV2.

Miller said that it is the, and I quote, “the official policy of the Trump administration to take Greenland and make it a part of the United States”. Donald Trump is not only doing regime change and nation building, but he is combining Manifest Destiny and the Monroe Doctrine to begin the conquest of other nations. If you were wondering when the actual ramp up to WWIII was going to start, I think it just did.

Trump Tells Mexico He’s Coming For Them Next As US Navy P-8 Poseidon Spy Plane Conducts Surveillance And Reconnaissance Missions Over Tijuana

After launching a military strike on Venezuela, conqueror Trump now has US Navy P-8 Poseidon spy planes circling over Mexico

On our Podcast today, we dropped this stunning bomb: After conduction a military strike on Venezuela and capturing Maduro, Donald Trump has now set his sites on Columbia, Cuba, Canada, Greenland, El Salvador, Guatemala, Honduras, Brazil, Belize, Haiti, the Dominican Republic, the Bahamas and Mexico. Mexico may be next as US Navy P-8 Poseidon spy planes have been conducting Surveillance and reconnaissance missions over Tijuana. Go watch the Podcast for the whole story.

“The words of his mouth were smoother than butter, but war was in his heart: his words were softer than oil, yet were they drawn swords.” Psalm 55:21 (KJB)

One of the questions that comes to my mind is, after exerting the will of the American government over some or all of the nations on his conquest list, what happens when some other nation or nations decides they now see America as the threat, and come after us? The Danish prime minister has had enough of Trump’s threats and said “If the United States decides to militarily attack another NATO country, then everything would stop — that includes NATO and therefore post-World War II security,” No one with half a functioning brain thinks Trump is angling for peace threatening Greenland, his Imperialist appetite is readily seen by all. It’s funny, there used to be a difference between Trump’s QAnon supporters and his MAGA followers, but it’s nearly impossible to be able to make that distinction any longer. They wholeheartedly approve of his path to war, and are clamouring loudly for it. Trump water carrier Matt Walsh said “I totally support turning other countries in our hemisphere into subordinate vassals of the United States. That’s the very definition of an America First foreign policy.” What a jackassical thing to say, but guess what? All these people lusting for war going to get it, and they’re not going like it. History is a stubborn thing, go look at how well Imperialism worked out in the 20th century.

US spy jet mysteriously circles drug smuggling hotspot off Mexico’s coast as Trump threatens military action

FROM THE DAILY MAIL UK: The P-8 took off from Naval Air Station Whidbey Island in Washington, flew through Oregon and California, made several loops off the Mexican coast and southern California, and then returned to base. Equipped with advanced sensors capable of detecting both surface and underwater targets, the P-8 is often used to monitor suspicious vessels and maritime movements.

The flight comes just days after Donald Trump issued a warning to Mexico over drug trafficking, suggesting a military action similar to one carried out in Venezuela over the weekend.

The President said drug cartels continue to dominate large parts of Mexico and criticized the government for failing to confront them decisively. ‘The cartels are running Mexico, whether you like it or not,’ he said. ‘It’s not nice to say, but the cartels are running Mexico.’

The aircraft’s flight path extended off the Southern California coast toward Baja California and Ensenada, Mexico, covering territorial waters and exclusive economic zones that begin near San Diego and Tijuana and stretch roughly 352 miles west into the Pacific Ocean.

The P-8A Poseidon can reach altitudes of up to 41,000 feet, fly at speeds of nearly 565 miles per hour, and stay airborne for long stretches thanks to an in-flight refueling system.

The fleet, which includes 174 aircraft and has logged over 700,000 flight hours worldwide, is built to endure harsh maritime conditions for up to 25 years. Boeing says the P-8 integrates advanced weapons and mission systems and can be quickly upgraded to meet evolving threats. READ MORE

DONROE DOCTRINE: President Trump Announces That The United States Will Now Take Over Venezuela, All Their Oil, And Run It With ‘Boots On The Ground’

Published

January 3, 2026

SHARE NOW THE END BEGINS:

President Trump told the nation earlier today that the US would now take over running Venezuela, and control its oil calling the the ‘Donroe Doctrine’

President Trump stepped to the microphones on January 3, 2026 and said the quiet part out loud: the United States would run Venezuela during a “transition,” and would “get the oil flowing.” That’s not “foreign policy.” That’s the language of occupation, the kind of talk you hear right before lawyers start arguing about “authority,” “stability,” and “temporary measures” that have a way of becoming permanent.

“From whence come wars and fightings among you? come they not hence, even of your lusts that war in your members?” James 4:1 (KJB)

And here’s the part you can’t miss: the oil isn’t a side-note in this story, it’s a theme. Reuters reported Trump saying U.S. oil companies are ready to invest billions to revive Venezuela’s oil sector after Maduro’s capture, while the U.S. military would stay “until demands are fulfilled.” Another report describes Venezuela’s oil infrastructure as decayed and difficult to revive quickly, meaning this isn’t a “weekend project” — it’s a long entanglement. For all of you MAGA followers an QAnon supporters, if Barack Obama and Joe Biden were doing what Trump is doing right now, would you still be cheering as loudly as you are now? Would you even be cheering at all? No, you would be denouncing it and demanding they stop. Trump is just getting started with the upcoming series of wars and military campaigns he has planned, so get ready for war, and lots of it.

Trump says US will ‘temporarily’ run Venezuela, ‘not afraid of boots on ground’ if necessary

FROM THE NY POST: “We’re going to run the country until such time as we can do a safe, proper and judicious transition,” Trump said at a press conference from his Mar-a-Lago resort as he provided new details on the stunning military operation.

“We’re going to run it, essentially” through the transition, he said.

The logistics of a US-run Venezuela were still being worked out, but Trump said it might involve military “boots on the ground.”

— Now The End Begins (@NowTheEndBegins) January 3, 2026

“We’re not afraid of boots on the ground if we have to,” the president said. “We had boots on the ground last night, at a very high level, actually.”

Later, Trump added, “We’re going to have a presence in Venezuela as it pertains to oil.”

In a strong assertion of US national prerogative in the hemisphere, Trump said he had one-upped the Monroe Doctrine of the nation’s early history. “They now call it the Donroe Doctrine,” Trump quipped, while flanked by Secretary of State Marco Rubio, Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth and CIA Director John Ratcliffe.

He brushed off questions about the US’s record of running countries in Latin America over the last century and even whether it was consistent with his “America First” mantra. “We’re going to run the country right, it’s going to be run very judiciously, very fairly,” Trump said. READ MORE
