Replay now available. Join us LIVE next Tursday. Susan is on the ground in Michigan. Tuesday's returns from Wisconsin and Minnesota tell one story — and overnight, Hellfire missiles enforced the blockade.
Barbara Boyd traces Mamdani, El-Sayed, and Obama to a single London–Soros network stoking religious conflict over Gaza, Iran, and Islam to take down Trump and the midterms — and shows how Trump is answering with the Board of Peace and a nuclear-powered productive economy.
From ground zero in Michigan: the socialist who vows to bring down the system was manufactured by it — Rhodes Scholar credentials, foundation money and all — while Bessent and the Trump team dismantle the machine that gutted Detroit.
Trump's 48-hour ultimatum to Iran sent shockwaves — but the real story isn't military. It's economic. He's breaking the City of London's centuries-old chokehold on global energy pricing. The armchair generals on social media are missing the big picture.
Barbara Boyd argues that most commentary on the Middle East misses the economic dimension: after U.S. energy independence, Trump is targeting the City of London’s long-standing influence over global energy pricing. She cites Trump’s Truth Social warning to Iran over the Strait of Hormuz, subsequent negotiations, and a five-day extension, contrasting media reactions with what she calls London and Wall Street interests. Boyd says Britain is facing an economic emergency as energy and borrowing costs surge, while Gulf states shift trillions in investment toward the U.S. and a “Board of Peace” focused on development and modern energy. She claims the true Hormuz chokepoint is London’s marine war-risk insurance, noting Lloyd’s cancellation led to an 81% traffic collapse, and frames current events as a struggle between empire and sovereign nations.
