Trump strips White House access from select outlets; Democrats cry dictatorship, but the real target is the propaganda machine Bertrand Russell blueprinted in 1953. $6 diesel traces to decades of green, zero-growth policy—not Iran.
Mike Steger explores Trump’s vision for the Americas, Brazil’s election, and how energy abundance and industrial growth could make the Western Hemisphere richer than Europe.
Diesel, Iran, Carney’s trade war, and a London AI scare hit the midterms together — one empire operation. Seven posts inside, from Monday Brief through Hamilton’s Class.
The Saturday Wrap-Up - EMPIRE MONEY: London's Hidden Hand Behind Zohran Mamdani - August 8, 2026
Barbara follows the money behind Mamdani and El-Sayed — AppLovin alumni, CCP-tied shareholders, and Muslim Brotherhood links — and why Marx went to war with the American System Trump is now rebuilding.
This episode argues that Abdul El-Sayed’s Michigan Democratic primary win, driven by young voters, reflects anger from college graduates burdened by debt and lacking useful credentials, a trend Vice President JD Vance links to decades of bipartisan “globalist capitalism” that outsourced industry and weakened the middle class. Barbara Boyd contrasts British imperial economics and Marx’s attacks on Henry Carey’s “Harmony of Interest” with President Trump’s American System approach, spotlighting domestic industrial growth, mining deals, and Jacob DeWitte’s rapid Texas nuclear reactor build enabled by deregulation. The program then claims today’s DSA insurgency is fueled by foreign-linked money, citing AppLovin-connected donors backing Zohran Mamdani and El-Sayed via super PACs, alleged China- and Shanghai-based funding networks, Middle East advocacy funding, and ties to Muslim Brotherhood organizations, and urges support for Promethean Action ahead of the midterms.
