The Midweek Update - BEGGING: King Charles Visits Trump — DOJ Strikes Comey and Iran Falls the Same Day - April 29, 2026
King Charles arrives begging to keep the "special relationship," the DOJ indicts Comey and Fauci's bagman and raids the Democrats' fraud networks, and Iran publicly admits collapse as the UAE walks out of OPEC.
Barbara Boyd frames Tuesday as a major display of power by Donald Trump, highlighting three “inflection points”: King Charles’ visit, new DOJ actions, and Iran’s economic unraveling. She argues the White House ceremony masked a struggle over the “special relationship,” citing FDR’s anti-colonial demands and interpreting Trump’s beehive visit as signaling America as the new “master,” while Charles’ address to Congress is portrayed as a subtle critique of Trump via references to checks and balances, NATO, Ukraine, and environmental themes. Boyd then details DOJ moves: an indictment of Jim Comey over his May 2025 “86 47” seashell message, an indictment of Fauci aide David Morens for an alleged Wuhan lab cover-up, and federal raids targeting large-scale entitlement and loan fraud she links to Democratic networks. Finally, she cites Trump’s claim that Iran is collapsing under oil and Treasury pressure, alongside the UAE leaving OPEC and shifts in global oil shipping and insurance.

Bessent explains Wall Street, the financial press, and Democrats keep being proved wrong—contrasting Canada’s job losses with a blowout U.S. jobs report, calling out FT/WSJ panic, and framing a Red Queen economy that must outrun debt, China, and skills gaps.
Susan on Bessent naming IRGC accounts in the British Virgin Islands — the real target is the offshore money machine, not just Iran. Syria sanctions lifted, the Mecca Pact, Russia at the G20, and China on Iran.
