TRANSCRIPT
Susan Kokinda: This is what it looks like when the British Empire loses control. Secretary of State Marco Rubio just dropped the hammer on the British censorship apparatus. Rubio just banned five British and European agents who have been trying to silence Americans and interfere in U.S. elections.
Here’s what he said. Today, the State Department will take steps to bar leading figures of the global censorship industrial complex from entering the United States. We stand ready and willing to expand this list if others do not reverse course.
Now, one of those newly barred British figures played a key role on the ground in the United States in 2024, trying to stop Donald Trump from getting elected. But now it’s all out in the open, just like the recent national security strategy put the split with Europe more broadly out in the open. In other words, the United States is saying your current policies of censorship, open borders and keeping the war in Ukraine going are not our policies.
So, in London-backed rooms, the British are quietly conceding that Donald Trump has the upper hand for the moment, and they’re preparing Plan B. If they can’t stop him, they want to try and outlast him. And they’re turning to none other than Mike Pence for that. So, we’ll break down the new long game coming out of London, specifically from the empire’s premier think tank, Chatham House.
I’m Susan Kokinda. I’ve tracked the hidden hand of the British empire in the United States for decades. I’ve seen how they’ve shaped our economic and strategic policies and manipulated our political processes.
Donald Trump has forced that out in the open like no one in my lifetime. And now we have a chance to act like a true republic again. So, please like, share and subscribe so we can spread this message.
Today, I’m going to look at how the British and Europe are sabotaging peace in Ukraine in order to buy time, how they’re building a Trojan horse inside the Republican Party to undermine Trump in the 2026 midterms, and how Trump’s revolutionary economic strategy can completely outflank them. So, to understand why the British are desperately looking for Plan B, you have to understand what they just lost here in Washington. Look at one of the figures that Marco Rubio just banned, Imran Ahmed.
He’s the British CEO of the Center for Countering Digital Hate. Now, for months prior to the 2024 elections, Ahmed and the CCDH were on the ground in the United States as part of the British deployment to stop Donald Trump. They were part of an army of British foot soldiers, which included nearly 100 British Labour Party staffers, interfering directly in our elections.
Rubio has just called the censorship industrial complex out, and that weapon is being neutralized. And because they can no longer quietly manipulate American politics from the inside, they’re trying to trap us from the outside. This brings us to Ukraine.
The split between the United States and Europe and Britain has never been wider. Trump’s new national security strategy makes it official. Europe is the problem, not only when it comes to censorship, but when it comes to the Ukraine war.
So, while Trump’s team, led by Steve Whitkoff, was meeting separately with Russian and Ukrainian delegations in Florida this past weekend, trying to move the peace process forward, the Europeans were locking themselves into perpetual war with Russia. At a European Council meeting, the EU granted a massive new loan to Ukraine. But the terms are a trap.
Hungarian Prime Minister Orban, a Trump ally who opposes the European war stance, pointed out that repayment isn’t tied to Ukraine’s economic recovery. It’s tied to military victory. Here’s what Orban said.
For this money to ever be recovered, Russia would have to be defeated. That is not the logic of peace, but the logic of war. A war loan inevitably makes its financiers interested in continuation and escalation of the conflict.
So, the EU and British financiers have just incentivized themselves to sabotage any peace deal Trump proposes. They need the war to continue to save their investment. But they really are doing this alone.
Donald Trump is not playing that game, and the Russians know it. And President Putin is openly mocking the disconnect between London and Washington. In his annual year-end marathon Q&A, President Putin responded to the war rhetoric from NATO General Secretary Mark Rutte by pointing out that Europe is completely out of step with the Trump administration.
Here’s what Putin said. I just want to ask him, what are you saying about a war with Russia? Can you even read? Just read the new U.S. national security strategy. It says that the United States is the key player in NATO, and yet the new national security strategy does not list Russia as an enemy or a target.
How can NATO aim to go to war with Russia if the alliance’s leading power does not regard us as an adversary? That’s the reality. The British and the Europeans are pushing for war, while the U.S. national security strategy has pivoted away. They’re isolated, they’re desperate, and they need a new way to gain leverage over Trump.
And that’s why they’ve turned their eyes to the 2026 midterms. This is going to be a critical point in the entire Trump revolution. And this is why you should subscribe to Promethean Action.
We’re playing a leading role in equipping you with the intelligence, the resources, and the strategy we’re all going to need to win this battle. So please head on over to our website and subscribe to our free newsletter. So here’s what you need to understand.
The British establishment realizes that the new national security strategy and the other actions by the State Department is a declaration of war against their rules-based order and their policies, and that Donald Trump, if unchecked, is not going to be stopped from establishing an American, not a globalist foreign policy. So they’re out to check mayhem with the loss of Congress in the 2026 midterms. And Chatham House, which has been the central mouthpiece for modern British imperialism, is saying it with remarkable candor.
They had a year-end policy review seminar, and here’s what their director of global economy, Creon Butler, said. To the extent that in 2026 we have less uncertainty, maybe because Trump loses some steam as a result of midterm elections, because he doesn’t want to have any more economic damage, the U.S. Supreme Court decisions will see, you know, or just because, you know, he just runs out of steam, and therefore we have that greater stability, we will, you know, see a stabilization in economies and growth will, it is going, but it may strengthen further. Butler is not a minor figure.
He’s worked for the Bank of England and the Foreign Office under both labor and conservative governments. He’s the perfect empire man. Now think about what he said.
Their entire economic control depends on Trump losing steam in the 2026 midterms. They’re not predicting it, they’re planning for it. And they aren’t hiding it either.
Chatham House just published an interview with a top Democratic strategist with this telling headline. If the Democrats can’t take back the U.S. Senate in the midterm elections, we’re in trouble. Trouble for who? For the globalist establishment that Trump is dismantling.
Because if Trump maintains Republican control of Congress, or better yet, increases the MAGA component of Congress, he can finish the economic and foreign policy revolution he started. But if the British establishment and the globalists can flip the Senate, or even just pick up enough seats to empower the RINOs, they can paralyze his agenda for the final two years of his term. Now here’s where it gets even more interesting.
They aren’t just writing and talking about it. They’re deploying their own man inside the Republican ranks, Mike Pence. Pence was in Britain in mid-November getting tuned up for the job, which he laid out in a speech to Chatham House.
Pence positioned himself as the anti-Trump on all fronts. He lined up with Europe on Ukraine. He portrayed China as a mortal enemy.
And he extolled Britain’s role in creating Christian Zionism. Then he summed it up. The American people are rejecting the siren song of populism.
I believe they always will. Because America’s core character does not change. With one leader, one season in our history, our nation is weathered populists and progressives, isolationists and realists, every shade in between.
Not only that, Pence’s organization, Advancing American Freedom, is positioning itself as the future of conservatism, one that rejects Trump’s economic nationalism and his challenge to forever wars. Just this week, a large group of staffers from the Heritage Foundation defected over to Pence’s think tank. Now, in their coverage of that heritage defection, the Wall Street Journal laid out the reason.
Heritage is supporting too many of Trump’s policies. And the article quoted Pence attacking Heritage on exactly those grounds. Pence said the foundation had fallen because it had embraced elements of isolationism, stopped backing Ukraine in the war with Russia, supported some tariffs, and backed Robert F. Kennedy Jr. as HHS secretary, among other things.
So this is the Trojan horse. While Trump is fighting Democrats and the obvious enemies, there’s a quiet effort underway to rebuild the Never Trump faction of the Republican Party with British institutional backing and position it to take back control in 2026 or 2028. They can’t beat Trump directly, so they’re playing the long game.
Sabotage peace in Ukraine, target the 2026 midterms to break Trump’s momentum, and rebuild a respectable Republican alternative for when Trump is out in 2028. But here’s what they don’t count on. Trump isn’t playing by their rules, political, strategic, and especially economic.
His economic policies can make them irrelevant. Through his sheer economic success and by creating a new Republican coalition, which doesn’t need the likes of Mike Pence and his fellow travelers, and is based on blue-collar workers and a broad coalition of everyday Americans. Trump is building a new American system economy.
And if he succeeds, especially if the working class sees real growth, if factories start getting built as they are, if blue-collar Americans can raise a family on one income, then the Pence-Chatham House faction is going to fall on its face and is going to be left in the dust. So look at the economic news this week. In two key areas, the experts were caught flat-footed by Trump’s success.
Under the headline, inflation cools faster than expected, this article says, the financial markets received a long-awaited gift this morning as the November Consumer Price Index report revealed inflation is easing at a significantly faster pace than Wall Street had anticipated. And then there were the GDP figures, which Trump celebrated with this truth. Third quarter GDP came in at 4.3 percent, blowing past expectations of 3.2 percent.
60 of 61 Bloomberg economists got it wrong, but Trump and some other geniuses got it right. The success is due to good government and tariffs. And Trump is delivering.
Look at what he’s doing on multiple fronts. While he’s pursuing policies which will build up the working class with more good-paying jobs, he’s taking on the problem from the top. He’s taking aim at the super-concentrated industries, the various industrial complexes like health, drug, and beef cartels that we spoke about last week.
And in his White House Oval Office availability on Monday, Trump added to the list of cartels he’s taking on and announced that he’s going to be meeting with auto insurance, home insurance, and other insurance companies next week because they are, quote, making far more than they’re entitled to make, unquote. And here’s the big one, the military-industrial complex. In announcing a major initiative to build battleships again, Trump said this about the defense industry and defense executives.
We’ll be discussing the pay to executives where they’re making $45 and $50 million a year and not being able to build quickly. If they’re going to make that kind of money, they have to build quickly. Again, we make the best equipment in the world, but they don’t make them fast enough.
And we’re going to be also discussing dividends. We want the dividends to go into the creation of production facilities. So we’ll be talking about all CapEx, dividends, and the pay.
We’re also going to be talking about buybacks. They spend so much money on buybacks. They want to buy back their stock.
I don’t want them to buy back their stock. I want them to put the money in plant and equipment so they can build these planes fast, rapidly, like immediately. So he’s telling the military-industrial complex, stop enriching yourself, start building America’s defense industrial base.
He’s telling the insurance companies, stop price gouging, start serving the American people. This is the American system. It’s the system that says the government should support productive investment, protect domestic industry, and ensure that the economy serves the people, not the financiers and the cartels.
And here’s the checkmate move. If Trump’s economy booms, if wages rise, if more factories are built, if working-class Americans start seeing real prosperity, then what is the Chatham House 2026 strategy matter? So let’s wrap this up. The British are playing the long game, but Trump is playing a deeper game.
They’re targeting 2026. He’s building an economic system that makes their entire strategy obsolete. Yes, we need to track the empire’s operations, foreign and domestic, but most importantly, we need to support Trump’s economic revolution.
That’s the real battle. So if you want to enlist in that battle, join us at Promethean Action. We’re building a community of people who understand grand strategy, who can see through the smoke, and who are committed to joining with Trump in reviving that American system.
So please join us as a regular paying member or make the biggest contribution you can. The British think they can outlast Trump, but they’re wrong. They can’t outlast us, not when we remember who we are and what our republic was designed to be.
This has been your Christmas Eve Midweek Update. I hope you take the time to reflect on what the celebration of Christ’s birth means for our republic and for the world, and have a blessed holiday. Thanks for watching.
