๐ด LIVE Promethean Updates Q&A: Iran, Lawfare, and Why the Establishment Is Going All-In Against Trump
Join us for a live broadcast, with your hosts Barbara Boyd, Michael Steger (filling in for Susan Kokinda), and Adam Sturman.
Held every Thursday at 11 am Eastern, 8 am Pacific.
They take your questions from both the YouTube live chat and their Newsletter Subscribers!
The peace track Trump fought to keep alive just took a hit.
Overnight, the President says Iran shot down a U.S. Apache over the Strait of Hormuz - both pilots safe - and that America "must, of necessity, respond."
For weeks Trump refused to be dragged into the war so many were itching for him to start.
Now there's a direct attack and a public commitment to answer it.
So Barbara's question only gets sharper:
who keeps engineering the incident that blows up the deal the moment peace gets close - and who profits when the Strait catches fire?
At home, the establishment is going all-in.
With Trump's "grand conspiracy case" advancing in Florida, a major New York Times hit piece reframed the war inside Main Justice - right as the Senate moves to block Bill Pulte at DNI, kill the $1.8 billion fund for victims of lawfare, and sabotage FISA to force the President's hand.
Barbara's read:
They're not defending an institution.
They see themselves in the orange jumpsuits.
And Michael Steger fills in for Susan this week with a contrarian read on California:
the machine's "victory" is a Pyrrhic1 one that's going to blow back hard - and makes election integrity more likely than ever.
Plus: Europe trying to reignite Ukraine, and why the timing is no accident.
The establishment is firing on all cylinders - so this week we ask why they're going all-in against Trump.
