They do not have to identify as Jesus. Christ means Messiah or savior. They simply need to present themselves as the means of salvation. false Christs: Or “false Messiahs.” The Greek word pseu·doʹkhri·stos occurs only here and in the parallel account at Mr 13:22. It refers to anyone who wrongly assumes the role of the Christ, or the Messiah (lit., “Anointed One”).—See study note on Mt 24:5. *** it-1 “Christ” par. 9 Christ *** False Christs. In his prophecies on the conclusion of the system of things, Christ warned his followers: “Look out that nobody misleads you; for many will come on the basis of my name, saying, ‘I am the Christ,’ and will mislead many. For false Christs [Gr., pseu·doʹkhri·stoi] and false prophets will arise and will give great signs and wonders so as to mislead, if possible, even the chosen ones.” (Mt 24:4, 5, 24) Such wicked persons who falsely lay claim to the title and office of the Lord Jesus Christ are included in the an·tiʹkhri·stos (Greek for “antichrist”) mentioned five times by the apostle John.—1Jo 2:18, 22; 4:3; 2Jo 7; see ANTICHRIST. https://www.jw.org/finder?wtlocale=E&docid=1200000966&srctype=wol&srcid=share&par=10 The Antichrist, all those anti Christ, are these false Christs. *** it-1 “Antichrist” par. 5 Antichrist *** In view of Jesus’ rule that what is done to his true followers is done to him (Mt 25:40, 45; Ac 9:5), the term must include those who persecute such ones, which means it would include the symbolic “Babylon the Great.”—⁠Lu 21:12; Re 17:5, 6. John specifically mentions apostates as among those of the antichrist by referring to those who “went out from us,” abandoning the Christian congregation. (1Jo 2:18, 19) It therefore includes “the man of lawlessness” or “son of destruction” described by Paul, as well as the “false teachers” Peter denounces for forming destructive sects and who “disown even the owner that bought them.”—2Th 2:3-5; 2Pe 2:1; see MAN OF LAWLESSNESS. Kingdoms, nations, and organizations are similarly shown to be part of the antichrist in the symbolic description at Revelation 17:8-15; 19:19-21.—Compare Ps 2:1, 2. https://www.jw.org/finder?wtlocale=E&docid=1200000290&srctype=wol&srcid=share&par=6

I appreciate your enthusiasm but that simply cannot happen. Trump does not have that kind of power or authority. He's not a monarch or emperor despite what he or his opponents think and express. Nor would the UN just take control of the US like that. Everyone at the UN understands Trump lacks that kind of authority. Rulership or dominion or control of the US is not Trump's to give away and, therefore, not something another organization would accept. Plus, that's not what the Bible says. Every country gives authority to the UN. It's not a US only thing. But I applaud you for your efforts.

Most people do

No. Impeached just means brought up on charges. Impeachment is a formal constitutional process in which a legislative body charges a public official (such as a president, vice president, federal judge, or civil officer) with misconduct. Andrew Johnson (1868): Impeached by the House for violating the Tenure of Office Act; acquitted in the Senate (falling one vote short of the two-thirds majority needed). Bill Clinton (1998): Impeached by the House for perjury and obstruction of justice; acquitted in the Senate. Donald Trump (2019): Impeached by the House for abuse of power and obstruction of Congress regarding Ukraine; acquitted in the Senate. Donald Trump (2021): Impeached by the House for incitement of insurrection following the January 6 Capitol attack; acquitted in the Senate. And.... Nixon was not impeached. Richard Nixon (1974): Faced a formal House impeachment inquiry and approved articles of impeachment in the Judiciary Committee; resigned from office before a full House vote could take place.

More Presidents have been impeached than have resigned. Impeached Presidents Andrew Johnson Bill Clinton Donald Trump twice. Presidents who resigned to avoid impeachment Richard Nixon

Is that because you live in a land dominated by Christendom? Is there such a thing as a primary target if they all are attacked at once?

Let's not get too carried away. Jesus said only worry about today. Trump has already been impeached TWICE last time he was President. The impeachment process is a long process. The process is divided into two main stages: impeachment in the House of Representatives and the trial in the Senate. First the investigation by the House of Representatives. This would take months. If the investigating committee finds enough reason to proceed, then they write up the list of charges, which would take days. Then the House votes and if the majority are in favor of impeachment, then it moves on to the next phase in the Senate. The trial takes place in the Senate and will take days or weeks. Two-thirds of the Senate, that's 67 votes, need to be in favor for a conviction to happen. For the Democrats to get enough votes to convict Trump of anything, the Democrats would need to win 20 out of the 35 Senate races tomorrow. That's a big hill. If the Senate votes in favor of conviction, that could mean anything and depends on what the actual charges are. The penalty could range from a stern lecture to possibly removal from office. To date no US President has ever been removed from office. On average the impeachment process takes 3 to 4 months. The earliest such an impeachment could occur is sometime in January 2027.

Specific political points? Yes. Overall? Politics continues to reaffirm the prophetic point that people will not be open to any agreement, slanderous, boastful. No matter which political party.

Oh, I have a gas grill. Also a gas stove (electric ignition). But that meat in the freezer isn't lasting long if the power fails for long.

That doesn't do my freezer any good

Sounds more like prepare for disruption in power grid and supply chain, but ok. I think I have enough protein stored for 90 days, but that's all in the freezer. I don't know what I'd do if the power goes out.

The pictures do not predict the future. They are meant to teach a lesson, not try to foretell how the future will unfold. So, no. The 2 pictures do not mean that. It's possible all those brothers might be dead by the time of the attack on God's people. We hope not, but time and unforseen events happen to everyone. The pictures teach the lesson that Satan will use the nations to attack our organization, including those taking the lead at that time. Current GB members are depicted so that we all can quickly recognize that the picture is showing the attack on God's people. We hope those brothers are taking the lead at the time this happens. We hope this happens tomorrow or later today. But no. We should never read more into the images than what is actually there. If we have to ask "does this mean that..." then it's possible we're thinking too hard about the lesson and missing the point.

Also trust that the brothers are constantly monitoring the website so that, if it were to get hacked, the altered information would be removed quickly and that steps would be taken to prevent users (us) from seeing the wrong information.
