Promethean Updates

Join us for a live broadcast, with your hosts Barbara Boyd, Susan Kokinda and Adam Sturman. Thursday June 25th at 11am Eastern, 8am Pacific every Thursday. We take your questions from both the Youtube live chat and our Newsletter Subscribers!

British voters just enacted regime change again. Keir Starmer is out. Susan Kokinda reads it as reality finally beating Empire: Starmer failed on energy, failed on immigration, and failed on Iran, exactly as Trump warned. The City of London's flagship government has fallen, and the "special relationship" has nothing left to sell but managed decline.

Across the hemisphere, the same imperial system is losing. Call it the DonRoe Doctrine, the Monroe Doctrine reborn for the Trump era, the Americas choosing national sovereignty and mutual development over the Empire's old game of managed chaos. This week, Colombia became the latest nation to sign on, and Barbara Boyd breaks down what it means for the region.

And a week after the signing at Versailles, the establishment promised the Iran deal would collapse. It hasn't. Hormuz is open, oil keeps sliding, and the final-deal talks are moving. Barbara and Susan give the honest status check the headlines won't print: where the negotiations actually stand, and why it's looking good.

Plus: Tulsi Gabbard's new disclosures and the intel war inside the U.S., and the question Monday's Brief raised: what about the British and COVID? Bring your questions. Barbara and Susan take them live.

Susan Kokinda argues that new Federal Reserve Chairman Kevin Warsh’s inaugural press conference signaled a break with the Phillips Curve “cruel choice” doctrine, insisting strong growth, low prices, and high employment are compatible through productivity-led expansion. She highlights Warsh’s rejection of forward guidance and his call for markets to focus on incoming data from the real economy rather than Fed “prophecy.” Kokinda connects this shift to Trump Administration efforts to “outflank the money masters” by expanding directed credit through institutions like the Export-Import Bank, the Development Finance Corporation, and others to finance reindustrialization, machine tools, and advanced manufacturing. She concludes that the deeper driver of non-inflationary growth is human creativity, scientific discovery and innovation, framed as the American System’s alternative to the British Liberal financial model.

Barbara Boyd argues that outgoing DNI Tulsi Gabbard’s recent document releases reveal a global, US-funded biolab network centered on Dr. Anthony Fauci, traced back to January 2014, the same start date cited in Joe Biden’s pardons of Hunter Biden and Fauci. She claims Obama’s 2014 gain-of-function ban pushed the research overseas, with NIH funding routed through EcoHealth Alliance to Wuhan, while Pentagon-backed contractors, especially Metabiota, expanded work in Ukraine after the Maidan coup. Boyd highlights a May 2020 Lawrence Livermore assessment describing Wuhan as fitting criteria for an accidental release of an engineered coronavirus, and alleges Fauci steered Biden-era COVID origins reviews toward natural origin while lying to Congress. She links Ukraine lab inventories and broader COVID-era policies to a larger geopolitical and technocratic agenda.

Ahead of the G7 in Evian, Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney warned of a “global rupture” as the post. Cold War rules-based order breaks down, a claim the episode argues was underscored by Donald Trump’s summit remarks suggesting Syria should handle Hezbollah if Israel cannot without “killing everyone else,” and criticizing Israel’s actions in Lebanon. The script says Trump’s approach reflects a sovereignty-based foreign policy that bypasses imperial proxies and multilateral institutions, highlighted by direct engagement with “the full spectrum” of the Iranian system to secure an Iran memorandum of understanding and by prioritizing Gulf leaders in public time. It argues the real target is dismantling the “terror premium” on oil tied to Strait of Hormuz threats, and portrays Europe’s Ukraine pledges as unfunded, citing Britain’s defense leadership resignations over lack of money, fueling Carney’s alarm.

In this special Monday broadcast, Promethean Action discusses the newly signed 60-day memorandum of understanding with Iran, highlighting JD Vance’s claims that no funds have been released and that sanctions relief depends on verification and elimination of enriched stockpiles, alongside reports that Russia and China helped conclude the deal. Barbara Boyd and Susan Kokinda argue the agreement aims to end “forever wars,” reopen the Strait of Hormuz, and realign global power against what they describe as a British-imperial “rules-based order,” while warning Israel’s Netanyahu faction could try to derail progress ahead of Israel’s October election. Boyd previews Trump’s confrontation with G7/E3 plans for “deep strike” capabilities in Ukraine and cites new disclosures by Tulsi Gabbard about US-funded biolabs, gain-of-function research, and alleged coverups involving USAID, EcoHealth Alliance, and Hunter Biden-linked investments.

Susan contrasts Donald Trump’s stated push for a “stronger than a bomb” deal with Iran and his desire to stop the killing in Ukraine, arguing the common narrative about villains in Tehran or Moscow misses what is actually blocking peace. It examines Zelenskyy’s open letter to Putin as a two-part maneuver that undercuts Trump’s Anchorage Summit and calls for Europe and the UK to serve as “guarantors,” followed by Zelenskyy’s meetings in London with Starmer, Macron, and Merz and coordinated messaging from major think tanks. It also highlights a U.S. House vote to keep arms flowing over Trump’s objections, tied to the British-American Parliamentary Group funded by the UK government. The script cites UK records on Ambassador Peter Mandelson and reports that King Charles considered canceling Trump’s state visit over Zelenskyy, framing Ukraine and Middle East conflicts as managed proxy wars that Trump’s sovereignty-based approach seeks to end.

In this Monday brief, Barbara Boyd argues that Sen. Mark Warner and Rep. Brian Fitzpatrick are “hysterical” over President Trump naming businessman Bill Pulte as Acting Director of National Intelligence, highlighting Warner’s CNN warning that Pulte could misuse intelligence to claim foreign interference and disrupt future elections. Boyd connects the backlash to a Senate refusal to authorize FISA and to Fitzpatrick’s push to kill Trump’s proposed $1.8 billion fund for victims of “lawfare,” which she says would create a public record of who targeted figures like Flynn, Papadopoulos, Roger Stone, January 6 defendants, and even Bernie Sanders. She cites former DNI Tulsi Gabbard’s claims about Russiagate and Ukrainegate, alleges Warner and Fitzpatrick played key roles, links the Ukraine funding fight to Tony Blair and Chatham House, and calls for a “Too Big to Rig” turnout in November aimed at pressuring Republican moderates like Susan Collins.

This episode argues that leaked details of a Trump-Netanyahu call and John Bolton’s complaints reveal Trump’s rejection of the traditional National Security Council process and the permanent intelligence bureaucracy’s control over presidential decision-making. It links that shift to Trump’s appointment of Bill Pulte as acting Director of National Intelligence, citing establishment and bipartisan backlash and JD Vance’s statement that the intel bureaucracy must answer elected leadership. The script then highlights Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth’s speech at the Shangri-La Dialogue, describing a move away from “globalist” rules-based rhetoric toward a scoped Pacific posture defined by a balance of power, sovereignty, free commerce, and improved U.S.-China relations. Finally, it cites a Council on Foreign Relations essay, “After Hegemony,” as an admission that the old Hobbes/Locke philosophical basis of geopolitics is ending, framing the conflict as empire versus sovereign nations.

Barbara Boyd argues the Senate’s repeated blocking of Donald Trump’s agenda is driven less by narrow Republican margins than by powerful donor networks, focusing on Oracle founder Larry Ellison and his ties to Tony Blair. She profiles Ellison’s major political spending (including backing Tim Scott, Lindsey Graham, and the NRSC) and links it to Senate leadership under John Thune, a longtime Mitch McConnell protégé aligned with the postwar globalist order. The episode claims Blair’s Tony Blair Institute, funded heavily by Ellison, spent years building a case for regime change in Iran, working through venues like CFR and UANI, but Trump limited action to strikes on nuclear infrastructure without regime change. Boyd says Blair is now rebranding via a “Radical Center” manifesto while advancing surveillance and digital ID models, and urges overwhelming midterm victories to “shock” or replace Senate obstructionists.

Judy Shelton argues that productive growth and rising wages are not inflationary, challenging the Federal Reserve’s Keynesian framework and calling for a New Bretton Woods of low rates, stable exchange rates, and credit aimed at physical productivity. The episode frames her remarks alongside Kevin Warsh’s “regime change” at a Fed seen as crushing demand while backstopping Wall Street, with warnings that a rate hike amid an Iran-war “oil shock” would worsen a supply problem. It revisits the 1944 Bretton Woods fight between Roosevelt’s Harry Dexter White and John Maynard Keynes, claiming the post-1971 system enabled deindustrialization and offshore finance. It then highlights the administration’s alternative executive-branch credit channels and Secretary Rubio’s India trip, including Quad critical minerals coordination, as part of a “Core Five” alignment (U.S., China, Russia, India, Japan) designed to bypass London-centered finance.
