Canada Under Globalist Thumb

After Prime Minister Mark Carney abruptly pulled Canada out of U.S. trade talks and framed the dispute as a “war,” this episode argues the rupture isn’t really about tariffs but about political and financial strategy aimed at the U.S. midterm elections.

Citing U.S. Trade Representative Jamieson Greer’s account of negotiations and Canada’s unique retaliation, the script claims Carney is pursuing “geo-industrialization” and a “donut strategy” to go around the White House and influence American public opinion, aided by U.S.-connected advisers and outreach to mostly Democrats. It also highlights comments from Iran’s foreign minister about U.S. debt and links the broader conflict to competing economic systems.

The episode concludes that Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent is fighting a parallel battle to manage risks from the yen carry trade using tools like FIMA to prevent destabilizing Treasury selloffs. Here’s more from Promethean Updates.

Bessent’s Finances: No More Bull

As headlines warn of a $40 trillion U.S. debt and a “bond market explosion,” Barbara Boyd argues a manufactured financial panic is being used to attack President Donald Trump ahead of the midterms. She spotlights Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent’s “discreet” plan—echoed by Vice President JD Vance—to get economic growth to outpace debt by directing credit into productive investment rather than speculation or consumer handouts.

Boyd frames the approach as an updated Alexander Hamilton model: Sovereign credit for infrastructure, technology, and industry to expand real output and contain inflation, while curbing Wall Street and Fed-driven speculation. She cites Bessent’s focus on domestic production and supply chains and highlights executive-order priorities including advanced manufacturing, nuclear and fusion power, a Moon colony by 2028, and breakthrough science.

The episode also features Vance’s critique of free-trade policies, “deaths of despair,” and a $1B Cleveland-Cliffs investment in Middletown, Ohio. Here’s more from a new episode of Promethean Updates.

Could Interest Rates Blow Up?

Japan is the number 0ne holder of U.S. Treasuries. To keep Japan from selling its holdings, the United States is engaging in efforts to prop up the value of the yen, the Japanese currency. Eight-time best-selling author Jim Rickards, whose books mostly deal with finances, explains why this is a dangerous policy.

“Japan is the number one holder of US Treasuries. They have been selling Treasuries to get dollars to buy yen to prop up the yen,” Rickards says. “”What happens when you sell Treasuries? US interest rates go up. Do you think the Trump Administration or Secretary of the Treasury want US interest rates to go up? . . ..

Rickards goes on,”Treasury Secretary Bessent called Japan and said hold on to your Treasuries. We will give you all the dollars you need with a swap line with the Federal Reserve. So, what we are doing is the US is using dollars from the Fed to prop up the yen. So, the Japanese do not have to raise interest rates. So, the carry trade does not unwind. So, the markets don’t collapse. . .. It is extremely dangerous . . .. You are trying to defend an exchange rate that probably can’t be defended, and it is just a matter of time before it breaks.”

Here’, Rickards speaks with Greg Hunter on USAWatchdog.com.

The Hidden Hand Over Peace

From Camp David, President Trump framed a reported Hamas disarmament agreement as a breakthrough enabled by pressure on Iran, arguing the regional strategic terrain has shifted.

The episode highlights two developments presented as unprecedented: Hamas agreeing to disarm and Israel and Lebanon resuming talks after three decades, both attributed to cutting off Iranian funding for proxies like Hamas and Hezbollah.

It claims the decisive “weapon” was Treasury action under Secretary Scott Bessent—sanctions, OFAC tools, anti–money laundering measures—described as “economic fury,” including designating over 1,000 Iranian-linked individuals, ships, and companies and disrupting routes through shipping, insurance, and offshore finance.

The script also points to the February 19, 2026 launch of the multinational “Board of Peace,” tasked with rebuilding Gaza, as a preplanned institutional blueprint that helped secure the Hamas agreement. Here’s more from Susan Kokinda on Promethean Updates.

The Death Cult Now Exposed

This episode argues that Senator Tim Sheehy’s description of Iran’s IRGC as a “death cult” also applies to its alleged financial sponsors in the City of London, framing the IRGC as a deployable terrorism asset within a broader globalist, neo-feudal system.

Barbara Boyd links the 1979 Iranian Revolution and the Three Mile Island incident to a long-running push for limits to growth and post-industrial policies, tracing lines from the Club of Rome and the National Security Memorandum 200 to modern net-zero finance. The program contrasts this with President Donald Trump’s stated nuclear “renaissance,” highlighting four private companies developing microreactors for defense, industry, remote power, and AI data centers.

It then reviews Treasury actions under Scott Bessent targeting Iran’s oil, banking and crypto networks, and parallel sanctions and prosecutions against Mexican cartels designated as foreign terrorist organizations.  Here’s more from Boyd on Promethean Updates.
