Minneapolis

This blog explores the ICE riots in Minneapolis, our first plague related headline. Before that, an update on divine names, with an interesting example. Then next week's watch dates and a headline review.

Divine Names

Regular readers here know Ryan has been in a fast moving season of discovery related to uses in the text of inspired divine names. He suspended updates to the scripture apps 2 weeks ago to focus on this problem. Those weekly app updates are now back to normal, with the next update online at the same time as this blog goes out.

Ryan has rechecked all divine names across the BRB. These names also transmit to the TT and related apps. There should be no more accidental divine name transformations left over from earlier work in this area.

There are still divine name related riddles. These are generally found in troubling passages where it is unclear what the original author, or editor, intent may have been. So there is still future work in this space. But, there is no longer any special work related to divine names alone.

As part of this work, Ryan found an interesting example of the use of the divine name at the start of the plagues stories of Exodus. Let me share that example with you here.

Moses Goes Before Pharaoh

The link here is to Exodus 5 in the BRB. This is the first time Moses goes before pharaoh. Note how this will turn out to be another story where the plot hangs on who knows the correct divine name. This is very much like the opening stories of Luke, where the main players do not know that name, but the angels, and readers, know the correct name.

Note that this Exodus 5 passage may have other name substitutions. As given in the Aramaic, the name of Jacob's heirs are Israel. This is likely an editor's change in name. The audit will ultimately solve this. We are in the BRB, where Israel is used. The TT and related apps use Jacob.

In the case of Moses and Pharaoh, only Moses knows Joshua's name. Pharaoh does not. This very much matters to the plot. Let me paraphrase that Exodus 5 passage for you here.

Moses and Aaron go to pharaoh. They tell pharaoh, Joshua God says to send my people Israel.

Pharaoh answers, Who is Joshua that I should obey his voice to send Israel? I do not know Joshua, nor will I send Israel.

So the setup is very similar to other places. Moses is introducing a divine name unknown to Pharaoh. It is just some name to pharaoh, an unknown god as far as pharaoh is concerned, without power to compel pharaoh to do anything.

This looks to be the FIRST TIME that someone in Abraham's family has introduced Joshua god to someone outside of the family. Normally, Abraham's family just uses generic "god" when referencing Joshua to people outside of their own clan.

This first public introduction of the name Joshua, outside of Abraham's family, explains the reason Joshua is going to plague Egypt. Joshua is proving he exists by his ordering of the plagues against the Egyptians. That proof is built around the pattern of the plagues. Moses warns, pharaoh does not listen, then the plagues come. This pattern happens repeatedly and in succession.

Follow Links

Now, if you use the options menus to turn on the Interpretive/Connection highlighting you will see how Joshua answers this retort from Pharaoh. As we can see, Pharaoh does not know Joshua in Exodus 5:2.

But Joshua will respond to pharaoh's unbelief by using the divine name Joshua in the introduction to each plague. This begins in Exodus 6:7, Where Joshua explains to Moses how pharaoh will know I am Joshua god.

Similar answers are found across all the plagues. See Exodus 7:5, 7:17, 8:10, 8:22, 9:14, 9:29, 10:2, 11:7, 14:4, 14:18, 16:6, 16:12, 18:11 and 29:46.

Joshua is performing the plagues so Pharaoh will know that Joshua is god. The plagues are a way that allows pharaoh to understand Joshua is real, and in control of the world.

This new study puts a twist on the plagues that we are about to start tracking. All the replays of the plagues down across history exist to prove that Joshua exists and is in control of the world.

Now, let me turn to the replay of the first plague, Blood on the River, as this has started to replay again this week.

Blood on River

We were watching 2026-01-24 as the expected date of the story of Solomon's temple dedication. Technically this is the point of transition from Solomon building the Temple to building his Palace. If this was 1 continuous building project this would be early for the dedication. We will check this in another couple weeks. More on this timing detail below.

This date was also a listed match to the start of the plagues on Egypt, specifically, blood on the river.

Headlines for this date came from 2 different venues. In the middle east we saw Israel clearing air space in preparations for expected retaliation from an attack on Iran. But then that venue went mostly silent, even radar silent. I will return to that venue below.

What we also saw was what many are calling an execution style shooting of a protester by ICE agents in Minneapolis. This venue is not as obvious as a prophetic match to our story. But, Minneapolis has specific history for this specific plague. So this new plague series is replaying quite closely to headlines the world knows now as the Great Financial Crisis.

Let me review that first headline from 2007, when that crisis began.

I-35W Bridge Collapse

The link here is to the I-35W bridge collapse article on Wikipedia. Let me review the key facts. The bridge was an 8 lane bridge across the Mississippi river about 1/2 mile down stream from Saint Anthony Falls. Those falls mark the upper end of commercial navigation on the Mississippi.

It collapsed on August 1, 2007. 13 people were killed, 145 were injured. Because the bridge was so important to commute traffic in the Twin Cities, a replacement bridge design was started within days. That new bridge opened for traffic on September 18, 2008.

At the time of collapse there was a refurbishment project going on where the driving surfaces were rebuilt. Heavy construction materials were stacked on the bridge deck which caused gusset plates on the lower truss members to fail.

Eventually the US Government placed blame on what they called poorly designed gusset plates. If those plates had been thicker, the failure would not have happened. But if the construction work was handled better the bridge would also not have failed.

Most of those who died in this collapse ended up in the waters of the Mississippi river. Readers here who are old enough to remember that day will remember news crew videos of divers searching through cars that were submerged, or partially submerged, in the water of the Mississippi.

This headline matched the expected prophetic date. It was a topical match because the blood of the victims was on the river of prophetic Egypt, which for that plague series was the whole USA. The Mississippi is the river of Egypt for our purposes here.

This first headline set up the USA as the venue for the rest of the plagues headlines that spread out across 2008. Those headlines were mostly related to the financial crisis that we remember from that era.

There were also political headlines including Obama becoming the plague of Arabs and the resignation of New York Governor Spitzer over using prostitutes for the plague of frogs.

OK, so Minneapolis and that I-35W bridge over the Mississippi, was the venue for the first modern replay of this plague back in 2007.

What about now?

We again have a serious headline flowing out of Minneapolis.

Operation Metro Surge

The link here is to the Wikipedia article that explains the current ICE operations in the Minneapolis metro area. This began in December, 2025. As I write this blog, that operation is still ongoing.

This has been capturing network news and social media feeds for several weeks. So at first it does not look like a point event like we normally watch for as prophetic fulfillments.

But, if you scroll down in that article you will find the killing of Alex Pretti, at the hands of ICE agents in Minneapolis, happened on 2026-01-24, our expected prophetic date.

That death has its own Wikipedia article, so we can narrow this headline to just that death. Let me switch to the specific article on Alex's killing by ICE agents.

Killing of Alex Pretti

The article linked here contains quite a bit of biography about Alex himself. For readers here who may care to learn more, you can read that article for the details.

The key point to note is where Pretti was killed. There is an interactive map, with a map pin, in that article. It shows the exact location where Alex was killed. You can zoom in and scroll around to see that this is just a long walk from the I-35W bridge across the Mississippi that is north and east from that map pin for Alex.

Strangely enough, this fulfillment is essentially at the same location as the those August 1, 2007, Minneapolis I-35W bridge deaths that began the Great Financial crisis.

We have never seen anything quite like this before. The base prophetic story of the Blood on the River is showing up at 2 different times in history, no problem, but both fulfillments are in essentially the same spot.

In the case of the I-35W bridge collapse, 13 people lost their lives by what would more generally be considered government incompetence.

In scripture there are 13 tribes, and that 2007 death toll would thus map to the tribes. Usually tribe lists are shortened to 12, which is the normal marker for a tribe list. The plagues themselves spread out across 12 dates. There is 1 plague per tribe.

In the case of what is happening with ICE in Minneapolis now, only 2 people have died so far, with others being injured. But unlike 2007, these deaths are spread out. It may not be over until we see a total of 12 or 13 killed or wounded in Minneapolis. ICE appears to need to pull out of Minnesota in order to stop this death list from growing.

Note how these deaths are also happening at the hands of government. So we should probably consider this to be government incompetence just like the bridge collapse. In the case of the bridge collapse the government blamed a specific engineering mistake in a certain engineering office when the bridge was being designed in the mid 1960s.

Notice how the government never takes blame to itself. In the case of the killing of Alex Pretti, blame will either be placed on the victim, or on the ICE agent, but not on government mismanagement of the overall operation itself.

Problem of the Videos

The link here is to a Mike Adams post on X dealing with his analysis of the videos of the killing of Alex Pretti. Mike has quite a bit of weapons related training. He explains what the ICE officers have been through in terms of their own training.

Mike does not consider this an accident because the actions of the officers involved are way out of bounds for how they were trained. Mike is bringing up the point that there may be malicious intent on the part of the federal government.

The local rioters themselves appear to be funded by state government as part of the financial fraud that has recently been found in Minnesota. Not to mean every protester is state funded, but most large protests have a core of hired, full time, protesters who provide direction for the crowds.

The ICE side of this set of battles is also government funded, but by the central government in DC. So this whole mess in Minneapolis is some sort of deadly political performance.

There are hints that the Democrats at the federal level may shut down the federal government over these events in Minneapolis.

Prophetic Stories

If we back up to the prophetic stories involved in this headline we can infer a little more as to what we are seeing in the news. The plague story of the blood on the river, found in Exodus, has no obvious cause.

As readers of the text we must deduce the cause of that blood. From the Exodus story, naive readers would think this was strictly by the hand of god. But Joshua normally works through people, including evil people like Pharaoh.

When we overlay the Exodus plague on Solomon's sacrifices we see it is by government action that causes the blood to be spilled. So we now have a second witness that pharaoh, so the king or kings involved, are the cause of each of the plagues. Joshua is using, or perhaps letting, the kings create their own plagues.

So when we look at the events in Minneapolis we are looking at the intentional, even if incompetent, actions of the people who run the state and federal governments.

Plagues Are Active

Until this headline, the idea that the plagues stories of Exodus overlay the stories of the Jerusalem kings, was only a well educated speculation based on our understanding of the text.

Now we have direct fulfillment evidence that this series is live. We can expect the rest of the series to run more or less as we have called them out. The link above is to the main article in Paleo.In where we track these headlines.

I have updated that article with notes on this fulfillment for the first plague.

Note that article lists an alternative date, 2026-02-06, for this same plague. This second date lands after the replay of Solomon's 13 years of temple building. This alternative date may be related to Iran. It shows up the Friday after this blog goes out.

Iran

So in last week's blog I suggested Iran as another possible venue for this plague. We did NOT see anyone shooting, so this did not hit directly on this first date. But let me review what has happened so far with Iran.

Airspace Clearing

The link here is to a post on X by Douglas Macgregor dealing with the clearing of airspace over Israel. This post is dated January 23, 2026, the evening before the expected prophetic date. Macgregor is a well respected analyst and was watching for war against Iran.

In that post Macgregor suggests this was the start of events dealing with an attack on Iran. I would tend to agree. The timing was good.

But nobody actually started shooting. It looks like the Israeli side, with American vassals, were hoping Iran would shoot first. This would place blame on Iran. Israel always worries about the narrative. If Iran would only shoot first, Israel could play the blame card. Think October 7. Iran did not take that bait.

Refueling Tankers

At the same time there were a series of related posts dealing with military activity in the area. The link here is typical, to a post on X dealing with the flights of refueling tankers. These tanker flights are needed for long range fighter strikes.

This looks like more bait in order to get Iran to shoot first. A mind-game war was now started against Iran.

Attacks to Begin Soon

The following day, so the 24th, on the expected prophetic date, we started seeing posts like the one linked here. Iran Daily News reported that Iran had been informed that attacks would begin soon. There were also radar outages which is common when there are movements of equipment.

So now we have the normal start-of-war messaging and it is landing on the correct date. But again, no shooting.

Iran Airspace Closed

Until April 25, 2026

By the following day, there were posts like those linked here, that on the 24th or 25th Iran had issued a NOTAM that closed all airspace over Iran to private and low flying aircraft for a period of 3 months. So 90 days. Until April 25, 2026.

So Iran was now responding, taking at least some public action over likely soon attacks. So something did start at the correct date, but again, no shooting.

Much Speculation

There was quite a few comments by well placed sources that spread across various social media that seemed to explain what happened.

1) The strike on Iran had been planned at the 24th, so after the close of Davos. Macgregor was right, and the attack had begun.

2) The Americans had told Iran to stand down, and take the strike. They expected Iran to do what they were told. This would be following the pattern just like at the end of the 12 day war last June.

But, 3) the Iranians responded that any strike would be considered a declaration of war against Iran. So Iran refused to stand down.

Iran apparently added that 4) all American and Israeli assets in the region would be targets of Iranian retaliation should there be any strikes on Iranian assets.

This tough stance on the part of Iran is what stopped the attack at those prophetic dates. The Israelis are thought to not have enough air defenses to withstand a full on Iranian missile strike. So the strike on Iran was called off, with rumors of more American assets being brought to the region.

What Next?

Maybe we should think of this as a stand off? Like 2 male buffalo about to have a fight, staring down each other, snorting at each other, scratching the ground with their hooves on a cold winter morning, steam rising from their nostrils. Which will blink first?

What fulfilled would then be the start of the war on the 24th. So with the closing of Israeli airspace. But with the west now rethinking what they want to do?

The American assets do not appear to be steaming home. It looks more like continued war planning and build up.

So this could still become a hot war at any time over the next 90 days. This 90 days is measured by the Iranian side, who is not the aggressor here.

So we look to the American side. Solomon's building project is going on now. Are we building towards war? Solomon's project ends after 13 days. This brings us up to the next date. This is the listed alternative date for the plague of the blood on the river. See below.

At this point we don't really need to guess what is going to happen. We can be patient and watch and wait. We will know in another week how this turns out.

If this is a short term delay, then we want to watch on or near 2026-02-06, the 13 days of Solomon's palace building project end there. Solomon bringing more arms to bear on his project is a reasonable match to what is going on now.

Last October 7 Hostage Returned

The link here is to an article on Haaretz. Most of the article is behind a paywall, which I would not normally link here. But, the headline and publication date is enough for our purposes. I am citing it just for the headline and date on the article, 2026-01-26, a Monday. This article is commentary for events across the previous weekend.

So basically on this same 2026-01-24 prophetic date, the body of the last hostage from October 7, 2023, was returned to Israel. As the article title suggests this brings to a close the series of events that began that day in 2023. Israel began clearing airspace the same date as this hostage return, so these seasons appear to be chaining together.

I see this as another shift in focus that goes with this prophetic day. We are now focused on Iran and the USA. So I generally see this as confirmation that we have moved into the time of the kings.

Watch Dates

The next prophetic date is the replay of the year when Solomon's Palace was finished. The date in question is 2026-02-06. This is the replay of the year 10000 AA, so this would be the last year in the millennium.

My own notes from December 2001, when this date went by in the past, includes the possibility that the Temple Dedication may have happened after the completion of BOTH the temple and palace. If so we may yet have more blood on the water at that date or at that weekend. See 1 Kings 8:2.

This date replays on the Friday AFTER this blog goes out. So it might be difficult to write it up in next week's blog.

This date is also listed on our regular calendar as the opening assembly at the start of Passover week. That annual holiday celebrates Passover the night before. The plague story ends with blood and water too, so that date would also be interesting for war with Iran. A headline might be matching the calendar story, which would also be a first example of such a match.

Withdrawal from ABM Treaty

The link here is to an archived government article where then President George Bush announced the USA would be exiting the ABM treaty in 6 months. His administration was lawful, unlike today. They were following a clause in that treaty that allowed for 6 months of notice.

History records the USA formally withdrew from that treaty 6 months later.

But that withdrawal announcement date was an earlier replay of 10000 AA which was going on at that time.

Note the START treaty expires on 2026-02-05, so the Thursday after this blog goes out. The first day without any active nuclear arms treaty begins the next day, on that 2026-02-06 prophetic date for Solomon's Palace being complete. Solomon can now try conquering the world.

Notice how these 2 nuclear arms treaties are tightly tied together prophetically.

Dropping both of these treaties is a setup for a future nuclear "blood on the water" like we may see with a replay of Noah's flood in 2029.

Shop Work

This week I have done a complete review of the status of all of the 3d exhibits.

Though there is much more work ahead, it is remarkable where we have come since August of 2023 when I first started looking at what is now the Table exhibit. At the time I knew nothing about how to do this work.

More on that progress review in next week's blog.

Headline Review

The following caught my attention this week.

Hormuz

The link here is to a post on X by Pepe Escobar. In this post he reviews estimates and possible consequences should Iran close the Straight of Hormuz in retaliation for an American strike on Iran. The Iranian parliament has approved the plan for such a closure.

The worst case consequences are the cost of a barrel of oil immediately going way up, western economies then collapse for lack of energy and the western banking system implodes over a stalled economy.

The short answer is that an attack on Iran may trigger victory through asymmetric warfare.

Fitts on Giving Up

Regular readers know I am a big fan of Catherine Austin Fitts. She is making the podcast rounds after taking a break for the holidays. The link here is to a podcast where she is the guest. This is on the Miles Franklin Media channel on Youtube.

This was Fitts' first time on that channel, so she modestly reviews some of her amazing biography at the front. Then she gets to the heart of why this video is getting widespread attention. She explains that the banks appear to be giving up on the USD as a reserve currency. This alone is already interesting. But then she explains recent legislative action in the US Congress dealing with making the USD into what would effectively become a digital currency, similar to bitcoin and related tokens.

Their goal is to figure out how to get dollar coins onto every phone on earth. The US Congress is working to setup the needed laws to give it a try. If it works, the USD would again reign supreme as the world's primary medium of exchange.

Near the end she is asked if she thinks this will ultimately work. She answers with a hesitant no.

As she explains, the US Congress is currently designing a vicious slave system, where currency can only be used at certain times, or in certain places, or any other conditions the bankers may impose. This all done by central control through code buried in the system. Bad enough to be de-banked like they did to Scott Ritter here recently. Now you can have your wallet snatched too. Well worth the time to watch.

Tesla Updates

The link here is to a Ryan Shaw video on Youtube with a summary of Tesla's quarterly earnings call. The big news is Tesla dropping the S and X models from their lineup.

These were very small volume cars, so no great loss. Lots of other changes across the company, with a focus on autonomy. Looks like Tesla has Elon's full business attention, a good thing to see.

More Ukrainian Recruits

This is a very sad post on X by Lord Bebo showing what has happened in Kiev since Russia turned off the power. The only residential heat is in portable tents.

So young men avoiding the draft must seek out heat in those tents. Those men are being conscripted as they appear. They are dead men.

Trouble near Xi in China?

The link here is to another Lord Bebo post on X dealing with a corruption investigation involving a Chinese general with close ties to Chinese President Xi.

This may just be normal corruption, but there is widespread speculation this man was some sort of foreign agent. If so, perhaps Xi has stopped a Zionist plan for an internal takeover of the Chinese government. This is dated at 2026-01-25, so very close to the prophetic date. This headline is worth an honorable mention as a prophetic headline for this date.

Trouble With Western Media

Almost all reported news out of Iran appears to be fake. The Zionists control the media narrative, mostly world wide. So they can tell whatever story they want about events inside Iran and nobody knows any better.

Scott Ritter weighed in on this problem in one of his podcast appearances this past week. I believe it was on Judge Nap, but no link. Ritter commented that western media claims more recent deaths in Iran than American deaths during the Battle of the Bulge in World War II.

Ritter could not remember the actual American death toll under that German surprise attack. Wikipedia reports 8407 Americans died in that month long battle. Iran hasn't had the time to throw their whole military at their own people, which is what it would take to reach the supposed 80,000 dead Iranians reported in Zionist controlled western media.

Trolling Minnesota

The link here is to a Professor Mirandi post on X. He is a level headed voice from Iran who is well known in the west because he speaks fluent English. I am a fan of his, though his podcast appearances can be safely played back at 1.25 speed. In any case, he makes regular appearances on the key podcasts.

Mirandi finally had enough with Zionist English language media in the west playing mind games with the US public. So Mirandi started trolling.

In this post he makes the hilarious point that the US government has killed 80,000 in the Minnesota riots. Mirandi is just transferring the false number of deaths by the hands of the Iranian government in recent protests to Trump in Minnesota. Very clever.

Copy Cats

Once Mirandi could do it, anyone could do it. The link here is another example of a hilarious troll post on X. Note, in the comments that follow, only about 1/2 get the joke, or get the fundamental problem of untrustworthy Zionist media.

UpScrolled

The link here is to a new social media platform called Up Scrolled. It has received attention as the preferred alternative to TikTok, now that Zionists control that platform. There were many sign ups last week as word of Up Scrolled spread.

Those new users overloaded their servers. Their systems appear to be running again OK this week. Their servers are in Ireland and their incorporation is in Australia.

The front page on that website has a list of their current platform promises. If they can keep those promises, it beats both TikTok and X by a mile. You'll need to download their app from an app store for your phone. No web interface as far as I can tell. So not useful for citations. So for now it is only a toy.

This project was built by a Palestinian from Gaza. He now lives in Australia as a refugee. He is said to have lost 60 family members in the Gaza genocide. So signing up is a good way to protest what has happened in Gaza.

I am signed up. @PaleoPhil if you want to try and reach me there. At this point I am just playing around. Readers here should recognize my art. If it looks promising, I could add this as a possible social contact off the front of Paleo.In. Let me know what you think.

More Later,

Phil
