Barbara Boyd argues that Mike Pompeo’s June 8 X post praising former MI6 chief Alex Younger amounts to a confession that, within weeks of being named CIA director in late 2016, he coordinated closely with British intelligence—linking this partnership to the origins of Russiagate, which she cites The Guardian as attributing to British spies who fed claims to John Brennan.
She highlights Richard Moore’s remarks about deep CIA–MI6 integration, points to Pompeo’s appointment of Gina Haspel and his praise of Brennan, and claims key documents were withheld until resurfaced by Tulsi Gabbard. Boyd says Pompeo and Mnuchin discussed invoking the 25th Amendment after Jan. 6, 2021, and frames the motive as opposition to Trump’s “American System” economics, tied to Koch funding and the Mont Pelerin Society. She concludes that Trump is pursuing industrial revival via defense-driven manufacturing, while Britain faces political resignations and fiscal strain.
