🤗 hi ..... Edward/ Wife ❣️ thanks for this newsletter & info n your financial needs /

i have discontinued my donations to Trunews @ this point & will initiate monthly support to Your family..... i find myself personally hurt & frustrated with the manner in which Rick fired You ‼️ i'm certain that Rick has his reasons / it appears that he is angry over the Circumstances & this influenced his Actions in Dismissing You ?! ..... it Appears to be Unfair to me / Unless You share with us differently ! ( this brings a flood of memories back for me / leaving a 20 yr career that i had trained for n a Single day ) 2 decades ago..... i can also Share that GOD did Bless me, Cup running Over with a new Career that lasted 21 more yrs.

( which now allows me to help You & your Wife 🌹) ..... jay

Thank you for your kind words Jay. Please continue to pray for Rick and the ministry. The devil is placing immense pressure on him and his mission. As for me, I'm not looking back negatively on the last 6 years, regardless of how it ended. The Lord has blessed me with skills in communication, and I plan to use them to share the Gospel of the Kingdom.

Dear Edward, I dont realy know if it is the "devil" who is putting pressure on Rick. Telling you the truth? Where are the truenewsmembers on Sunday Morning?? They are NOT present with the Onlineservice they stream for their sheeps!!! But "pretending" on Fridayevening ( the evening they record it!) " this is the day the LORD has made " n( and mention even the date of the upcoming sunday!) and make the viewers believe it is Sunday! THis is a kind of bad deception and I myself feel deeply used by believing the lies! Where are the Truenewspastors on Sunday?? And than they " fire " you for what we dont know realy until today??? I would like to seee the TUTH in all of this! I love you and your wife in the LOVE of CHRIST! Hanna

i agree with all above. want to hear your side Ed. Have written several emails to trunews,just requesting fairness, and whole story to stop speculation, gossip, confusion, and the rocking this has caused to so many.So we could maintain unity in Christ, and peace, in all situation. but, sadly, it seems offense/ defense was taken, at valid heartfelt genuine, enquiries. after all, we are family in Jesus? primarily.it is the handling of it which was so harsh and dismissive, to viewers too. it was the same dismisal over genuine biblical concerns, for trunews, over wisdom for/with milo, and lauren. just about a little time for character.not judgement. The attitude of leave if you dont like it, was sad to faithful loyal, concerned and longtime supporters of trunrews. in favor of very new people onboard. feedback was invited, then almost mocked and dismissed. just suprising, and deeply grieving. but anyway, im sure all will be well for all.thats my hope anyway.

Ed most likely signed and agreed to legal terms barring him from discussing these matters publicly. Chances are greatest that we will never know the full story behind what actually happened, putting us contributors in a strange situation.

Thank you so much Sue. I pray for Rick and the ministry and the Lord is now preparing me for a new assignment. Whats happened was shocking, but we must not let the devil successfully divide the Body of Christ. I'll be in touch soon with updates on my next steps, and the praise reports I have from the last couple weeks while working labor jobs.

Hi Edward,

I’ve been listening to Trunews since 2012 and have had to take a break. It’s been such a blessing to have you on the show, it felt like really wholesome momentum for the last several years. I know God can work everything out for the good of those who love Him and He isn’t failing you. Love and Prayers.

Greetings Ed,

So wonderful to see that you and your family are enduring, persevering, and handling this situation with such grace and honor. I will definitely pray for you and your wife and I pray that the Lord will you give a platform that will allow you to continue to share the good news of Jesus Christ and report and reveal the lies of the enemy during these end times. I will also contribute to your gofundme account to help support what the Lord is doing and is going to do in your life. I messaged the following on your telegram page, but just in case you don't see it. Some ideas for the name of your show; "Soldier of Truth Show"...this correlates to your past as a soldier in the US army and now you are a soldier in the army of the Lord. Or "Forerunner of Truth Show" because you are an advanced messenger before our Lord's return and the news and information you expose and reveal is to ensure we as believers are aware and prepared.

Love and Blessings,

Brian & Persia DeSadier

So glad to hear that you have some clear direction as to what the Lord has for you next. I've always appreciated your research and reporting as well as the spirit and manner in which you delivered it. And the Lord is evident in your response to the circumstances you have been going through. Will be contributing through your GoFundMe page. Idea on what to call your show: Szall's All. All the best to you and your wife. In Christ, Henry Patrick.

Hi Edward, I feel sick about this. I listened faithfully every single day and looked up to you all. People make mistakes, I just don't understand. And why was Lauren let go? I admire Rick so much, but the treatment is puzzling, and at the very least you deserved severance, it would have been the right thing to do for all your hard work and dedication. I understand the tremendous amount of pressure and all, but to act like he never knew you and the man that you are? I hope you can share when you're ready, what went down on your end. You take good care and we will be praying for you. You're smiling face and your personality were a big part of the success and draw.

Hey Ed

An honest man in this world gets no love from the world! The lord tells us that we will be hated if we love him. I know you really love him.

As for trunews i have not followed them in a while. When i seen you gone and Milo there it was clear to me that the satanist has either invaded or had been there the whole time. As you are learning the devil's in DEEP! The worst thing about loving God truly loving God is he is so quiet.

I know! God has told me what happened to you. Finding out we have believed a lie is a hard pill to swallow.

With love Bobby

"When I was let go from TruNews that Monday morning, I was given that week’s pay with no additional severance or benefits from my 6 years of work."

- I'm no lawyer, but that sounds like you could take legal action.

"I worked most nights and at least one day on the weekends for TruNews, which made it difficult for me to work anything additional to put into savings."

That is double speak. "Additional" ? Either you have savings or you don't. More hours worked, more to be saved.

Hi Edward, I know I'm late to this forum but just wanted to say I miss you on Trunews. I have been a listener since before you and Doc showed up. To be honest I didn't like the change at first but grew to love you and Doc. Four years or so ago I began to contribute to Flowing Streams. Occasionally Rick would make me mad like when he said he was paying the $15000 fine for the Jewish wedding. I wrote about my disapproval and was never answered. After giving my tithe elsewhere for a couple of months I started giving to Flowing Streams again. Over the years I ignored other things Rick would do like talk about the flowing stream in the background of the studio where he was going to do interviews. I saw it being constructed then never heard about it again.

After your firing and Rick's "wheat and tares" sermon I was dismayed once again. I felt like we were all family on some level and you guys cared for one another. I wrote in to ask for clarity on the matter and was point blank told "you don't need to know". Although I don't contribute anymore I still watch Trunews and pray for them as well as you. You seem sincere and I'm glad you suggest praying for Trunews since that is what I would have expected them to do for you.

May the Lord bless you and your family

Dear Ed, there will never be a real succsess unless the old thing isnt cleared up. The Trunews have violated many rules, even steeling your passwords and your phonenumber I was in a mailcontact with tuenews to clear up why they " cheat " the onlinechurch by pretending they are present ( EVEN taking the communion wich moves me deeply !!) and they arent! You have been with them on Friday evening, BUT where are they on sundays?? Ed, you need to confess that you have supported a lie, so the LORD can use you as HE wants. You say, you want to tell the truth and only the TRUTH, pls start with this!! Love to you BOTH Hanna

Hanna my guess is Mr. Szall signed an NDA, TruNews is a business and Rick Wiles is its CEO. The entire situation was completely handled like any secular business.

Whatever the details may have been, Rick Wiles demanded from Mike Lindell a public apology and a million dollars (no exceptions). Mike Lindell apologized in the War Room show and Rick Wiles accepted, was money (million dollars demanded) exchanged? Was Szall dismissed as part of an agreement?

Mike Lindell and Rick Wiles have overlapping followers, if they mend relations then is a 'win, win' from business perspective.

I was once a casual TruNews listener from about the time Rick Wiles began TN until about 2017. While I appreciated many news items he and his team presented, I noticed numerous projects through the years RW would say God told him he needed money for then without notice projects were scrapped. He would also berate his audience for not donating and they should stop listening, then would turn around and say he doesn't ask for money because God would provide.

The best you can say about TruNews is it's just news commentary fundraiser with Jesus sprinkled in.

I myself have as a pensioner with just under 600 euros a month something to TN and was always deeply shocked that he expected a "Miraclegeld" from pensioners or Poor, and he himself bought food rations for YEARS for the "Dark Winterzeit" and also could buy a house. I am shocked, and all in the name of Jesus. I have also learnded from TN themselves that they "hide" on Sunday mornings for "security reasons", but blind the online church as if they were present. I wrote Rick and his wife directly that they should NEVER again make a call to pastors and Christians to be shot as martyrs (which Rick did at Grace chruch and others!) Never again..... when they hide themselves! Outrageous!

For me this is NOT TRuenews..
