Trump Threatens Venezuelan Airspace, D.C. Guard Attack, And Pope Leo 1st Trip

Today on the LOOPcast: Trump issues a stunning ultimatum to Maduro and declares Venezuela’s airspace “closed,” escalating a decades-long standoff now backed by U.S. warships, CIA ops, and rising talk of military action. Then we break down the D.C. ambush where an Afghan migrant—once vetted and brought here as a U.S. ally—opened fire on National Guardsmen just blocks from the White House. Plus: good-news medicine, Pope Leo’s historic trip through Turkey and Lebanon!

Daily Prayer: 

Lord Jesus,
Master of both the light and the darkness, send your Holy Spirit upon our preparations for Christmas.
We who have so much to do and seek quiet spaces to hear your voice each day,
We who are anxious over many things look forward to your coming among us.
We who are blessed in so many ways long for the complete joy of your kingdom.
We whose hearts are heavy seek the joy of your presence.
We are your people, walking in darkness, yet seeking the light.
To you we say, "Come Lord Jesus!'
Amen.
