Barbara Boyd rebuts Slotkin's claim that Trump needs China's help over Iran, exposes the Toronto huddle of Carney, Obama, and Alex Soros, tours the booming American economy under Hegseth and Greer, and frames Trump's China trip as the prelude to a US-China-Russia renaissance.
Mike Steger maps Iran tensions, Trump's Beijing trip and a "Core Five" sovereign-nation model against UK turmoil and California chaos — then turns to the philosophical foundations of the American system as the key to winning the midterms.
Putin's Victory Day remarks naming China, India, and the U.S. as Russia's "partners and friends" have rattled the Obama–Soros network — who convened in Mark Carney's Toronto to launch a "Principled Pragmatism" rebrand and declare Trump's presidency an "interregnum."
Promethean Science • Iran Oil Shock & Green Energy Lies
The Iran crisis has green propagandists claiming wind and solar are cheap and secure. The data proves the opposite. More renewables = higher prices. Every time. Here's why the physics guarantees it.
The Iran conflict has green energy propagandists salivating—pushing claims that wind and solar are now the cheapest electricity and the answer to energy security. The data says otherwise.
In this episode, Ben Deniston of Promethean Action cuts through the coordinated green messaging with hard evidence: real-world data from California and 30+ European countries showing electricity prices rise as wind and solar scale up. He exposes the "levelized cost of electricity" as a deliberate accounting trick that hides the massive overhead costs of intermittency—backup generation, storage, transmission, curtailment, and grid balancing. When those costs are included, 100% wind or solar in Texas costs 6 to 10 times more than natural gas.
But cost is only half the problem. Wind and solar are fundamentally low power density—requiring 10 to 25x the materials of reliable systems for the same energy output. And that's not a solvable engineering problem—it's the physics.
The episode closes with the deeper principle: increasing power density isn't just good economics—it's a universal law of progress, from the first ocean predators 530 million years ago to the nuclear frontier ahead. Green energy doesn't just raise costs—it pushes civilization against the current of natural law.

The flood of information is making you a worse citizen. Bruce Director on Kepler's New Astronomy — how a 17th-century astronomer broke the empire's two-cage dogma of perfect circles and uniform motion, and what that fight has to do with 2026.
Brian Lantz takes you on the factory floor of the American economy: durable goods +8.2%, manufacturing construction +20.2%, machine tool orders +22.5%, the U.S. now the world's third-largest steel producer. It's being built, baby, built.
Nuclear power is the dividing line between mankind stuck on Earth and mankind colonizing the solar system. Trump's pushing through it. The British Empire says stay put.
Artemis II returned humans to the Moon for the first time since 1972. With nuclear power initiatives, a lunar landing targeted for 2028, and a revitalized space industrial base, America is entering a new golden age of space exploration and growth.
