Barbara Boyd contrasts the imperial Iraq regime-change war with Trump's MacArthur-style Iran strategy — deny the nuclear threat, spare the economy, win the peace — and shows why Ukraine is globalism's last war, as Under Secretary Colby slaps down Mark Carney's "middle powers" fantasy.
After the FBI asked the press not to publish, The New York Times leaked classified details of Air Force One's defenses — and the DOJ subpoenaed all four reporters. The deeper story: Trump is reviving the Hamiltonian American System, and that has the British Empire in a panic.
Alexander Hamilton's real views on tariffs weren't about economics alone. They were about building a nation capable of self-government, innovation, and human flourishing.
We’re excited to share the latest episode of Promethean Overviews. In this installment, Mike Steger explains why 2026 could be a defining turning point for the United States — a moment that will shape whether the nation continues its decline or restores its industrial and cultural strength.
Promethean Action Overviews is dedicated to examining the economic, political, and historical forces shaping the future of the American System. You can subscribe to the Promethean Action Overviews channel on YouTube for more in-depth analysis.
In this episode, Steger argues that the political battles surrounding 2026 are not merely partisan contests, but reflections of a deeper structural conflict over sovereignty, industry, and national direction. He frames the current moment as the culmination of decades of economic policy, cultural shifts, and institutional realignment — forces that have reshaped the American economy and its civic life.
Placing today’s tensions within a broader historical arc, Steger connects the present climate to larger patterns of empire, finance, and industrial development. He contends that the coming years will test whether the United States can rebuild productive capacity, strengthen national unity, and restore long-term economic growth — or further entrench systems that centralize power while weakening domestic industry.
Watch the full episode to understand why 2026 may prove to be a decisive inflection point — and what rebuilding American strength could require in the years ahead.

Barbara Boyd cuts through the warmonger lie: Trump is pursuing peace while crushing Iran's leverage — and the real war is between Trump's American System and the dying London-centered petrodollar order that wants him dead.
