Susan Kokinda analyzes President Trump's suggestion that Iran could someday join the Abraham Accords, arguing it reflects a foreign policy built on “real physical economics” rather than geopolitical rules. 

She contrasts this approach with criticism from figures like Mike Pompeo and highlights White House Communications Director Steven Cheung's sharp rebuttal. Kokinda points to the National Security Strategy's focus on reindustrialization—“the future belongs to the makers”—and frames energy independence, supply-chain security, and tariffs as “hard power.” 

She interprets the Council on Foreign Relations' new “Future of American Strategy” project as an admission that the liberal international order and the U.S.-U.K. “special relationship” are ending, citing CFR contributors who dismiss reindustrialization. The episode also notes emerging diplomacy and economic cooperation involving the U.S., Russia, China, and India.

Promethean Action—— We, former collaborators of Lyndon LaRouche, many for 50 years or more, founded the Promethean Action organization in 2024, changing the name from LaRouche PAC Action. The Political Action Committee, LaRouchePAC, also changed its name, becoming Promethean PAC. Our intention is to apply the ideas of LaRouche, as we understand them, to the profound economic, political and cultural challenges now facing the United States and the world.
