Shortly after Donald Trump announced that the U.S. military had captured Venezuelan president Nicolás Maduro in a stunning foreign policy escalation, a MAGA pastor took to the pulpit with remarks that left observers reeling. Self-described “prophet” Hank Kunneman used his Sunday service to declare that “God was thrilled” by the Trump administration’s actions and endorsed the move, claiming divine approval of what critics call an unprecedented intervention.
Kunneman, a longtime Trump supporter and far-right conspiracy theorist who has refused to admit he was wrong about his previous prophecies, delivered an extraordinary message he said came directly from God. “They say you have seized Venezuela for the oil,” Kunneman proclaimed as if speaking for the Almighty. “Yes, this is true.”
His remarks grew more sweeping as he tied the U.S. military operation to a cosmic battle.
“The enemy has sought and was seeking to bring war and to bring conflict through Venezuela and to control the oil of the Earth,” he firmly stated. “But the spiritual oil and the natural oil does not belong to the forces of darkness… This is my reset, and the oil of the natural and the oil of the spirit is mine, says the Lord.”
Kunneman also predicted economic effects divine in origin: “Watch as the prices of oil go down, down, down, down, down…” and insisted Americans had called on God. “I will show the Earth what a nation looks like when they have called on God to come.”
His comments sparked surprise and concern as the U.S. grapples with international backlash over the Maduro operation and questions about sovereignty and legality.

This buffoon could turn me into an atheist!
What a self-serving aggrandizing false prophet.
Don’t believe It’ll be seeing him in heaven
