The week after Chinese General Secretary Xi Jinping hosted American counterpart Donald Trump in Beijing, he had another guest: Russian strongman Vladimir Putin. President Trump wanted the Beijing meeting to help decouple China from Russia; it looks instead that Xi left him out in the cold.

From the Artemis II mission to the gains of giving up social media, this issue especially helps you see why the Trumpet is different from every other news source.

While the topic of hope is discussed, the issue also dives into recent news trends that are alarming and poignant.

U.S. President Donald Trump made his long awaited state visit to China this week. Could he be willing to let China take Taiwan in exchange for some business deals?

Meanwhile, Israel is headed for fresh elections, which could see Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu booted from office. British Prime Minister Keir Starmer is also on the way out. And in America, record-breaking national debt raises serious questions about long-term economic stability and global financial leadership.

All these shifts show key Bible prophecies being fulfilled.

Meanwhile, the writing may be on the wall for British Prime Minister Keir Starmer’s rule, the Iran war may be concluded with a deal amazingly similar to President Barack Obama’s nuclear deal, and India may be becoming a one-party state. Host Richard Palmer and his panel examine these items and more.
