GOP CIVIL WAR: Trump's American System CRUSHING Murdoch's London Plot
Rupert Murdoch's Wall Street Journal is attacking Trump's tariffs as a GOP civil war erupts. Mike Steger examines Wall Street's opposition to the American System, the battle for American industry, and what's at stake heading into 2028;
He argues that Murdoch's opposition to Trump's economic policies represents a broader effort by Wall Street and the City of London to undermine the America First movement and restore the global financial system Trump is challenging.
Mike explores the history of Alexander Hamilton's American System, including protective tariffs, national credit, and investment in American industry. From Hamilton's battle with Aaron Burr and Wall Street to Abraham Lincoln's transcontinental railroad and Franklin Roosevelt's major infrastructure projects, he examines how American economic development has historically depended on strong national leadership and industrial investment.
Looking ahead to the 2028 presidential election, Mike discusses Vice President JD Vance, Stephen Miller's role in the Trump administration, and the battle over presidential executive power. He argues that Trump's strategy must go beyond tariffs to deliver tangible economic improvements through manufacturing, energy production, infrastructure, and new opportunities for younger Americans.

Promethean Action——Bio and Archives
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.
