President Trump’s latest attack on Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy as a "dictator" is not just false—it plays directly into Russian propaganda. Worse yet, his reckless rhetoric risks further emboldening Vladimir Putin, the actual dictator in this scenario.

Trump, Putin, and Ukraine: A Hard Line Is the Only Line
President Trump’s recent diplomatic outreach to both Vladimir Putin and Volodymyr Zelensky has ignited fierce debate. On one hand, peace is always preferable to war, and bringing the Russia-Ukraine conflict to an end is a worthy goal.

Standing at the Crossroads of War, Justice, and Ceasefires
Recent developments in Israel's fight against those who seek to "wipe them off the map" have been nothing short of a whirlwind, each event carrying profound implications. As an independent Christian conservative, I view these unfolding events with a heart anchored in Scripture and a deep longing for truth, peace, and justice. This conflict is…
Olaf Scholz and Vladimir Putin: A Conversation Built on Absurd Demands
In a recent phone call, German Chancellor Olaf Scholz and Russian President Vladimir Putin had their first official dialogue since 2022. And while it’s good to see diplomacy at least being attempted, the content of their conversation reveals the delusional nature of Putin's demands.
