Gold surges past $4,000 an ounce as uncertainty fuels rally
The price of gold has hit a record high of more than $4,000 (£2,985) an ounce as investors look for safe places to put their money over concerns about economic and political uncertainty around the world.
Gold has seen its biggest rally since the 1970s, rising by around a third since April when US President Donald Trump announced tariffs which have upset global trade.
Analysts say another issue worrying investors is delays to the release of key economic data as the US government shutdown enters its second week.

In 2016, I produced a video concerning two seeds which represent Christians and Muslims. I show how these two seeds at the present time in the European Union (EU) is dividing into Islam and Christianity. We see in Daniel 2:43 these types of seeds do not mix. What has been taking place in Europe, Canada, Australia is exactly what I said was going to happen and I warned it would come grow in America. There is no question in these last days we are witnessing these two seeds of Islam against Christianity coming against each other. Watch my video and then read today’s news below the video. If you don’t watch the video below, you may not understand the article below the video.

Islamists have used left-wing ideology to propagate anti-Zionist beliefs in the West
“A recent report describes how Islamism has used Fanonist ideology, followed by many on the political left in the West, to draw people in to support its cause, in particular Hamas. This psychological trick is the driving force behind the anti-Zionist sentiment that has been rising in the West. The result? Gaza will likely now be governed by a body comprising billionaires led by Tony Blair.
If Mamdani Wins, The Gig (Work) Is Up
One of Zohran Mamdani’s most harmful proposals is getting the least attention: his plan to restrict “gig” work – the freelancing that’s so popular across the Big Apple. Mamdani wants to wrap freelancing in so much red tape, it’ll be significantly harder for New Yorkers to work for themselves or get side income.

Netflix in Crisis as Subscribers Flee Over Woke Kids Shows
Parents across the country are canceling Netflix after revelations that the streaming giant promotes sexual content and pushes radical left gender ideology through shows made for kids. The uproar began after the popular social media account Libs of TikTok posted a clip from “Dead End: Paranormal Park,” a Netflix cartoon rated TV-Y7 (for kids aged seven and older) that follows a gay, Jewish, transgender boy who runs away from home after his grandmother rejects his “identity.” He then waxes poetic about the importance of “living your life without apology.”
Don’t Buy The Lie: Over Half Of US Adults Claim Religion Should Not ‘Influence Political Decisions’
I recently wrote about some of the results of the 2025 State of Theology Survey published by Ligonier Ministries and Lifeway Research. The results were pretty appalling and showed a lack of biblical knowledge, discipleship, and consistency within the beliefs of supposed Evangelicals. But there was one statement on the survey, reworded from previous years, that I wanted to focus on here in a separate article—and it’s about politics.
NASA Rover Appears to Catch Photo of Mysterious Interstellar Object From Surface of Mars
As predicted, interstellar object 3I/ATLAS came within spitting distance of the surface of Mars as it continued blazing its path through the solar system. The mysterious object, widely believed to be a comet, is only the third object from beyond the solar system to have ever been identified as it cruises through. It’s fascinated scientists ever since it was first observed in early July. NASA’s Mars Perseverance rover has seemingly managed to snap images of the errant visitor as it made its flyby of the Red Planet. Two pictures, shared by the space agency over the weekend after being captured by Perseverance’s Right Navigation camera (Navcam), show a singular streak contrasted against the emptiness of space around it.

Will Hamas attempt to set a trap in Egypt talks?
As Israeli and Hamas delegations head to Egypt to negotiate the details of a sweeping U.S.-led plan to end the two-year war, Hamas faces a stark choice: accept a deal that would begin with the near-immediate release of all Israeli hostages and culminate in its eventual disarmament, or face the alternative—a renewed, full-scale Israeli military campaign aimed at forcibly removing it from power in Gaza.

Trump Slams “Deranged Jack Smith” After Bombshell Memo Exposes Biden FBI Spying On GOP Senators
An FBI document obtained by Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Chuck Grassley (R-IA) shows that the FBI, under Joe Biden, spied on 8 Republican senators as part of its Arctic Frost investigation. The revelation that the FBI snooped on the phone records of Republican members of Congress during its January 6 investigation is bringing greater scrutiny to then-FBI Director Christopher Wray, during whose tenure the bureau effort occurred, and to then-Special Counsel Jack Smith, who was leading the Biden Justice Department’s investigation into Donald Trump.
