EDITOR NOTE At Christian Times Magazine, our mission is to distinguish ourselves from those who are providing the world with fake news. We report on facts and we have a team of professional reporters and columnists who provide insightful analysis and accurate reporting on the breaking stories happening right now. We are a source of truth and tradition at a time when the world needs it most.
CTM has been established for some time and we are becoming a respected brand across the United States. To continue that success, we need support from our readers, who make everything we do possible.
Our President, Donald Trump, is being vilified by the mainstream media. He has had some outstanding achievements, like cutting taxes for millions of ordinary Americans and withdrawing the United States from the hated Iran and Paris Climate Agreements. When people are searching for the truth about what our great President has done, we need to be there to ensure people are hearing facts, not fiction.
CTM intends to launch a News TV channel soon, which shows how well Christian Times Magazine is doing across our nation. But again, we cannot make these accomplishments happen without your support. Together, Christian Times Magazine's readers and writers can Make America Great Again.
Yours Sincerely,
Anil Anwar CEO / President

Senator Bob Hall Senate Member: 2015 - present Party: Republican
Texas
Senator Bob Hall, father of four boys and husband to Kay Hall, taught his family the importance of faith, family and hard work. Senator Hall graduated from The Citadel in Charleston, South Carolina with a degree in Electrical Engineering and received a Regular Commission as a 2nd Lieutenant in the US Air Force. While a cadet at the Citadel he received numerous awards for leadership. He was the only Air Force Cadet selected to be a Battalion Commander and was awarded the coveted Wade Hampton saber as the graduating cadet who had contributed the most to the Citadel during the four years he was a cadet, and was listed in "Who's Who In American Colleges" his Senior year. Upon graduation, Bob began his active duty as a Systems Engineer working to develop the Minuteman Missile System during the Cold War at Norton AFB in California, where he achieved the rank of Captain.
After the Air Force he worked in the Aerospace industry as a systems engineer and business development manager. In 1982 he left the corporate world and began working as an independent proposal consultant to aerospace and defense corporations. Then in 1984 he formed his own company, Professional Proposal Management, Inc.Â
A compelling sense of duty, shaped by his military service, business experience, and love for this country, drives him to leave behind the legacy of a patriotic servant for his children and grandchildren. Envisioning their futures compelled him to become actively involved in the state's political process and strongly believes it is time to stand in the gap for our children, our liberties and our future.

The current Democratic Party is anti Christian religion, pro-choice, anti-free speech and prefers socialism over a constitutional republican form of government.

SENATOR BOB: I believe we publicly express similar values, principles, and objectives.
CHARLES: What is your position on Border Security in Texas?
SENATOR BOB: Without a secure border we are not a sovereign nation. We must have a secure border.
CHARLES: Are You for the Building of The Border Wall?
SENATOR BOB: Yes. We should build the wall and provide any additional security measures to ensure that border crossings only occur at official crossing points.
CHARLES: Are you compatible with President Trump's agenda? Do You Support President Trump?
SENATOR BOB: I think history will remember Donald Trump as one of the greatest and most effective presidents in preserving liberty, limiting government regulations, advancing international relationships, reducing terrorism, increasing American jobs and expanding the American economy.

TRUMP BOOMING ECONOMY WHY OBAMA SHOULD STEP AWAY FROM THE SPOTLIGHT AND LET THE ADULTS DO THEIR JOBS BY JOANN H. BUCHANAN
(AP Photo/Evan Vucci)
The U.S. economy has grown at such a fast rate since President Trump took office, there are those on both sides scrambling to give credit.
According to the New York Times: “we are living in an economy that wasn’t supposed to happen. Not long ago the overwhelming consensus among economist would have been that you couldn’t have a 3.6 percent unemployment rate without seeing the rate of job creation slowing and having inflation surge.
As of April this year 2019, employers have added 263, 000 jobs and average hourly earnings continued to rise at a steady rate—up approximately 3.2 percent. All of this made possible through President Trump’s decision to cut federal regulations, provide tax incentives and welcome industry back with open arms. From new trade deals to canceling old out dated contracts, President Trump has saved America from near devastation.

Under the Trump Administration, unemployment rate is at 3.9 percent, a total of 3.2 million jobs have been added; first year deficit is 665 Billion and GDP has reached a 4.1 percent.
Compared to the Obama Administration, unemployment rate was 9.4 percent, jobs added went to a minus 2.9 million; 1st year deficit 1.4 trillion and finally a low GDP of 1.6 percent.

That is why America should be proud that a Muslim woman has become an elected representative.
Sadly, Ms Omar represents everything that is wrong with Islam. Her views demonstrate that she has no love for the country that has allowed her to lead a successful life, and it begs the question as to why she chose to serve as a politician in a nation that she despises so much. But Ms Omar is not subjected to criticism because of her religion. Her views have damaged her reputation.
Ms Pelosi may not have liked Trump’s tweet about her Muslim colleague, but has she exempted her from condemnation because of her religion? If so, that is wrong. Islam is being used as a shield to spare Muslims from condemnation, and no one is doing that better than the left. Until politicians of all colours can unite to condemn racism and intolerance from any person or group, regardless of their race or religion, the likes of Ms Omar will continue to use her platform to incite hatred.

and (probably well-over) $26 million for the most deceitful and bogus investigation into a sitting president in the history of our country.
Former President Bill Clinton met privately on the tarmac in Phoenix in June 2016 as his plane and the plane of then-U.S. Attorney General Loretta Lynch were readying for take-off. This conversation, never
The liberal “elite” and the fake news that permeates our airwaves and internet were all stunned to hear last Friday that the investigation, overseen by Special Counsel Robert S. Mueller III, found the president, nor his 2016 campaign, was ever involved with any collusion with the Russian government against Democratic nominee Hillary Rodham Clinton, or her own campaign.
revealed fully by Clinton, or Lynch, was brushed off as a small-talk meeting to say “hi” and discuss activities of their respective family members. Oh, yes, we’re sure of that family member and wife, Hillary, and how Bill expected Obama’s justice department to ensure his wife faces no obstacles in the upcoming election is certainly something that can be said in a matter of a few small-talking minutes.
Some surprise! The president had denied this from day one. Why would a sitting president so vehemently deny those charges, personally, for so long and with such fierce defense if he knew he was guilty of anything? It was clear from my point of view, at least, that from the very beginning this investigation was launched by remnants of the Obama administration spooks and our nation’s domestic law enforcement hierarchy within the justice department’s FBI.
President Trump won a landslide Electoral College victory, defying all his critics, including the mainstream media. The liberal press, politicians and lurking D.C. swampy, dark figures could not stand the fact he won and beat Hillary. They knew this was a president that would challenge the status quo and NO ONE wanted their happy, elitist nests disturbed. One of the costliest special investigations in history, which was approved and given a green light by Trump
Let’s review some actions before, and during, the special counsel’s investigation that didn’t get dealt with appropriately or scrutinized by the mainstream press nearly as much as President Trump has been. Perhaps all of these should require investigations on misconduct or possible criminal indictments for obstruction:

Trump friend, Roger
Hillary Clinton was never held accountable for her misuse of government servers and the use of private email to conduct national security-related business. The servers were wiped clean and 33,000 emails were destroyed from her time as Secretary of State. Then-FBI Director James Comey, who oversaw the Clinton investigation by his bureau, first said there was nothing a “reasonable” prosecutor would pursue against Secretary Clinton during the 2016 presidential campaign. Then, later, just before the election, he reopened the case due to new information found on
Stone, is still under investigation in Washington, D.C., for his involvement with WikiLeaks and pre-election leaks involving emails related to Hillary Clinton. Remember, her emails were destroyed and nothing is done. Someone leaks her emails and they are being persecuted. Go figure. President Trump rightfully terminated Comey as FBI director in May 2017. Democrats and the press have tried to insinuate that the president was obstructing justice by doing so. Yet, we later found out that acting FBI director Andrew McCabe, and deputy U.S.
CTM | ISSUE 30 | PAGE 20
Attorney General Rod Rosenstein both “colluded” to have Rosenstein wear a wire in a private conversation with the president in the Oval Office in an attempt to get something the president may say to incriminate himself. While this didn’t ultimately happen, why has there been no investigation into this?
Former FBI agent Peter Strzok and FBI lawyer Lisa Page “colluded” with the knowledge of McCabe to make contingencies if Trump were elected president and sought to find anything that may be able to damage the new president and destroy his presidency (thus the Russian collusion hoax) by triggering a need for an investigation. While not totally known, it appears many within the FBI were working in tandem to subvert the election results and the new president’s administration. If this is not treason, I don’t know what is.
There is such overwhelming circumstantial evidence that a network of powers within Washington, D.C., was, and continues, attempting to hurt the presidential achievements of Donald J. Trump. How dare a political outsider, in their view, sit within the Oval Office and fight and champion for the hard-working people of the United States over set political agendas by the powerful elite.
Then, add to all this, the outcome of the Empire star actor, Jussie Smollett, with 16 felony charges simply dropped and let go with a nominal fine. Only to find out that Chicago’s Cook County state’s attorney, Kim Foxx, was a former staffer for Michelle Obama and also was supported and given $408,000 to her PAC while running for Cook County state’s attorney in 2016 by none other than George Soros. Here we have another hoax, perpetrated by a Hollywood actor, against Trump and his “Make America Great Again” campaign as something that is racially exploitive. The plan goes wrong and the local prosecutor, with all these ties from Obama to Soros let Smollett go free. Well, my friends, it is now nothing about racism, it is about being rich and powerful and on the right side of who is in charge in politics. In Chicago, Obama’s backyard, you can get a free pass when you are friend of that agenda, even when you exploit your own race in doing so. Pretty sad and absolutely contemptible.
President Trump spoke last night in Grand Rapids, MI, to a huge and exhilarating crowd. I watched the speech and Trump was back in the groove. His undeniable innocence from what was the instrumented Russian collusion hoax was a momentary setback. He beat the sinister forces trying to bring him down and the American people know this. His approval rating has risen a bit since the investigation completed and liberal mouthpieces on television have seen ratings drop for them since the investigation yielded a big nothing burger that didn’t match their appetite.
Such a sad time for the Democrats coming out of the woodwork to challenge the president. It’s fine, though, President Trump loves another challenge and he is going to have fun in the 2020 campaign. Knowing Trump, he’d just as soon beat any one of them, no matter who the nominee is.

is the "covenant with many" from the book of Daniel chapter 9. The problem with that rumor is that Daniel 9 clearly states that the "covenant with many" happens after the Third Temple has already been under construction for several weeks.
Daniel 9:24-27 KJV 24 Seventy weeks are determined upon thy people and upon thy holy city, to finish the transgression, and to make an end of sins, and to make reconciliation for iniquity, and to bring in everlasting righteousness, and to seal up the vision and prophecy, and to anoint the most Holy. 25 Know therefore and understand, that from the going forth of the commandment to restore and to build

The Bible isn't clear on how the order to rebuild the Third Temple goes out. Only that it goes out. In all fairness, something we have not foreseen may be actually responsible for that in the future. What we remember to date is that some type of disaster is usually due to occur merely for presenting a plan.
Another of the most memorable moments was afforded to us by former US President Bill Clinton in January of 1994. Just bringing up the possibility of giving up the Golan Heights brought on a devastating earthquake in Southern California. In addition, the drama concerning Monica Lewinski broke through the air waves. Suddenly, the attention was far from dividing Israel. Instead, the attempt

38 prophecy has taken place. Regardless of anyone's convincing sensibilities, including mine, the clock is ticking. President Trump has pushed back the timing of the revealing until the best possible moment. It was critical that Israeli elections were completed and that re-elected Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu would have 30-42 days to gather his government. Just as important, the Palestinian's Ramadan holiday must come to a close June 4th before an attempt will be made. In the meantime, political gossip about the actual contents on the plan are being circulated in all types of news media. Some are careful to limit their speculation and others are outright giving unverified reports making all parties involved in the process stressed and on defense.

Jason D. Greenblatt tweeted: ".@KingAbdullahII & #Jordan are strong US allies.

Regardless, it is well known that the proposed offer will include a hefty financial package that aims to improve the quality of life for Palestinian's. It is assumed that job's will open up and that different types of construction will be

expected such as homes, businesses, schools and hospitals. Sadly; however, the Palestinian Authority wishes to go back to a prior offer that is no longer on the table. They turned it down like every other presented. Abbas says he won't hear this one either, but would that truly be the end of it? Like an expectant mother for a great secret to be uncovered, the world awaits Trump's master plan. Perhaps, God is preparing to do the same. We should all know soon. God bless you all.

little upset though when I go online to check out health plans and get 5,000 calls from every insurance broker and their mothers.
I am about to stop answering my phone. I believe we need to do something about this annoyance from insurance brokers. I need reasonable health insurance, but most rates are like a car payment. I will be rich one day, but not right now.
The new baby the Dems are trying to give birth to is Medicarefor-all. Socialized Medicine has proven time and time again to be a failure. I heard a story years ago from a Canadian citizen dealing with socialized medicine; her father was dying and needed surgery and they said he was too old, and no longer viable candidate to receive the surgery he need to live. Believe it or not if they pass this garbage of a health bill it will be the same way here in the USA. We do not need to abandon Capitalism to have a viable healthcare solution. We must keep President Trump in office as long as possible. Job growth is increasing, investor confidence is up and everyday people are getting rich under this Administration. I am excited. I have been able to save more myself and my investments are doing great. I want America to lead the economically again.
What I would like to see is the Democratic Party members have to live outside our Capitalistic System, which they constantly complain about. If they want socialism, give it to them and them alone. I am so glad that we have someone in office that cares about the everyday people. Thank you President Trump for finally running and winning.
I am going to speak a little bit on Immigration. Rep. Senator Lindsey Graham said he would draft a plan on immigration earlier this week to present for both Dems and Republicans to review to help them come together on a plan to resolve some specific issues like Asylum. Asylum seems to be a big issue, because when they are released the applicants never return for their hearings. We need to find a way to insure their return for their hearings. My suggestion would be, because of the illegal entry into our country, that until finalized they need to be restricted to specific areas that the can possibly pick. They should have an ankle device place on them, and have to answer to local law enforcement for violations for leaving their set boundaries.
I believe we need to devise a better way of keeping track of these potential American Citizens and I think that the ankle devises would be a good way. It is a necessity to keep track of these people we allow to apply for Asylum.
Now, I will speak a little on Foreign Policy of the Trump Administration. I hold an Undergraduate Degree in Business and Management, and I see how President Trump conducts the Business of Foreign policy. We are now in talks with North Korea about Economic sanctions and Denuclearization. I see the same thing President Trump sees in Kim Jong-un. Trump

this is a bad thing, because in order to sell a product you have to know how to approach the perspective buyers. I am learning a lot from President Trump and his style of leadership. He did not become a Billionaire by not negotiating many different deals and if you are a politician you may not understand him at all, in his approaches.
The Democratic Party is on the run. I can’t believe they are getting behind Joe Biden. He is a good guy, but not Presidential materials. The Democratic Party realizes as many Republican and Conservatives do that President Trump has done a lot for this country. He is making America Great again. They see the 10’s of thousands that show up at the Trump rallies and the little amount of people that show up for Democratic rallies and town meeting. People know when they are doing better economically and other areas of their lives, and they like it.
I am going to vote for President Trump for a second term and so should you.
I see the Trump family as I once saw the Kennedys at least in politics. I hope his son, his daughter and many of them should for office, because they were led by a visionary and a man not afraid to roll up his sleeves and work.

Interview with Arif Bawecani Leader of Party Serbesti Kurdistan PSK Interview By Charles Lingerfelt
What is your position now? What did you do before assuming this position?
ARIF: I am the leader of the party PSK now. From my time as a youth, I was a member of political youth organization. I also was a Peshmerga in 1987 to 1991.
How long have you held this position?
ARIF: I was elected head of the party in 2006, and re-elected in the first congress of PSK in 2009, held in Oslo, Norway. In the congress held in Erbil in 2013, I was again re-elected. However, being the leader of the party is neither my main interest nor goal. What is important for me is to work for Kurdistan, and I thank our members that believe in the work I do as leader in PSK for Kurdistan.

What advice can you give to others who want to Serve in Kurdistan?
ARIF: I will only say to them; Support the freedom fight for Kurdistan. Kurds are 55 million people in the Kurdish region and in diaspora world-wide. Kurds are against terrorism. Kurds have lost thousands in the Fight Against Terror historically and in the IS-war of 2014.
Does Your position in you Party correlate with The Members Of Parliament in Kurdistan?
ARIF: I have good contact with MPs of KRG and leaders of the represented parties. But, as PSK is a an opposition party of East Kurdistan, we do not run for places in KRG parliament. Concerning Iranian Kurdistan, I would be the first to return when the regime falls. Our thousands of secret members and supporters there will support free elections and run for seats in the parliament.
What is your position on maintaining tight Border Security in Kurdistan?
ARIF: I wish to develop Peshmerga to be the Kurdish official military as a modern internationally accepted army with defensive purposes including border control. But as Kurdish area is today divided between 4 states, it is difficult to see the practical borders of the future Kurdistan. Peshmerga is the ideal force to guard the borders of the areas Kurdistan must consist of as the four parts merge or stay separated in a union or federation. Anyway; Borders have to protected for Kurdistan as for any other state.
Are You familiar with how Democracy works in the USA?
ARIF: Yes, I have read a lot about the American political system. I have visited USA by several occasions from 2006 to 2011. The American democracy is a good system for the Americans with systems watching and guarding the inhabitants against anti-democratic forces. I hope UAS will continue to help other nations, as the Kurds, which want to continue be friends with the US as a democracy in The Middle-East.
Are you compatible with President Trump’s agenda? Do You Support President Trump?
ARIF: I think President Donald Trump will be considered among the important presidents of US. His approach to difficult national and international important questions and challenges is different than traditional politics which in many cases has not given preferred results. The question I am most concerned about is of course the Iran Deal and his closing of this. I
