PROMETHEAN Action has posted another update on what they have been describing as President Donald Trump’s war on the City of London and its proxy regimes including Iran.
It features an insert video of US Secretary of State Marco Rubio defending the nation state and nationalism, and obviously, the United States in particular. It has been unheard of for decades for a US Secretary of State to enter into such a dialogue.
As noted quite matter-of-factly by Rubio, former administrations since the Cold War era had mistakenly bought into the idea that industry’s location didn’t really matter, and as long as something could be made more efficiently and cheaper elsewhere, consumers and business would benefit.
“The result of it was that it deindustrialised America,” Rubio told a Washington function launching an organisation called The Foundry School, to build the workforce behind Trump’s plan to rebuild US manufacturing..
Could Australia take a lesson here, as the country is about to witness the permanent closure of the core blast furnace (Blast Furnace No. 2) at Whyalla Steelworks in South Australia. Some 600 workers at the plant face redundancy.
The blast furnace closure will halt raw steelmaking operations at the site, our largest manufacturer of structural steel and sole producer of rail lines and structural long steel, in favour of a hare-brained scheme to make “green (low carbon) steel”.
No doubt the smiling Chairman Xi’s friendly steelworks at any number of locations will be only too happy to provide Comrade Albanese’s little island nation the shortfall – at the right price to undercut Australia’s expensive “green steel”.
“We lost our ability to make things,” said Rubio. “… even some of the most basic components that are necessary, the underpin economic life, especially in the 21st Century.
“We woke up to the reality, just a few years ago, that we are as a nation dangerously dependent on other nations for all sorts of things we need not simply for our economic vibrancy, but for our national security and survival as a prosperous nation state.” Hello Australia?
Meanwhile the Promethean team focused on Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent’s press conference at the G20, hosted this time by the US at Asheville, North Carolina, but different to anything we’ve seen in the past, noted Susan Kokinda, because the US is in charge of the guest list, which includes a Russian representative, and is setting a different agenda.
On Bessent’s campaign to shut down shadow Iranian financial transactions at various banks, Kokinda said they had been alerted in the comments section that Lloyds of London was a major shareholder in Iran’s Bank Melli.
Bessent ‘s banking campaign is called Operation Economic Outcast, and the “kenetic side” of this was the first direct hit on British offshore operations – the Gambia-flagged tanker TELA, carrying alleged Iranian crude, owned by London’s Estanica Trading Ltd. French and Swiss firms were named too.
CENTCOM also began striking IRGC targets inside Iran after attempted attacks on shipping in the Strait of Hormuz and on American bases. It was the first exchange of fire in over a month, then this new wave.
So how is Trump paying a dividend when he’s consistently running deficits? He has to borrow the money for the dividend. The taxpayers go further into hock so Trump can give them the ‘dividend’ he’s further indebted them for. The masters of spin have now even proclaimed debt to be a dividend! So much for the esteem they have for the public’s intelligence. Only timidity and stupidity make such gaslighting possible. That is why it has become so prevalent and popular.
The Trump $5000 dividend for voting Republican will go a long way to fixing the inconvenient stats. It should instantly reduce the 30% of Americans who have less than $1000 in savings and elevate Trump’s fortunes. Might even avert a bit of blowback that’s knocked Trump way down the poll spiral for lying through his teeth.
This obviously relates to the midterms. Anyone looked at the 10-Year Treasuries recently? Someone’s selling hard? No probs though, the FED’s should be buying $2.12 billion this week, maybe next?
.
The Republican National Convention: Midterm Conference (Dallas, Texas, 09-10,09.26) was extremely informative. Anyone who listened to the Trump, Vance, Bessant and Kennedy will have noticed the strong anti-Communist theme running through their speeches, – [quote]. ‘Stand with me and we will defeat Communism in America once and for all. We’re going to defeat it. And we’re going to defeat it badly.’ [unquote].
.
DJT’s speech outlined the progress made the new administration in just under two years. The following speech summed it all up. – [quote]. ‘There is more money being spent from outside [of America], countries and companies. Over $20 trillion. That’s five, six, seven times higher than any country ever. Not just here, [but] any country ever. Over $20 trillion in less than two years. Substantially less than two years. When the two year number comes out, that number could be $25 trillion being invested here. The record by the way, is another foreign land. You probably know the land I’m talking about. In fact, the head of that land (Xi Jinping) will be coming to the White House in two weeks. [Its] $3 trillion. So, $3 trillion (China) versus $20 trillion (America). But the $20 trillion after two years is going to be closer to 23, 24, or $25 trillion. Nobody’s ever seen anything like it.’ [unquote].
.
Say’s it all really.
.
The Trump Dividend [57:17 onwards] should probably wake up the world to how a nation should be run, not to mention the Trump Account for every American child. The Trump Dividend works upon the principle of a successful company, i.e., – [quote]. ‘very much like a successful company will do a cash distribution to its shareholder.’ [unquote].

On topic
They are saying the blast furnace could not be made to work despite repeated attempts so they are going to import steel billets from BlueScope Port Kembla NSW and put them through the rolling mills. I remember Smorgon got some electric arc furnaces cheap from the US many years ago and made a lot of rebar etc from recycled steel.
Warning to commenter puff – reportedly joo operation.
I think you get a better grade of steel with coking coal, which comes from central Queensland, so it might be easier just to give up on South Australia, last one out turn off the light
Bot supplied a few more mini-Globalists hanging around at Davos
Jim Chalmers (Treasurer): Critics and commentators have frequently linked Chalmers to the WEF orbit. This is largely due to his 2023 essay on “values-based capitalism,” which political opponents argued mirrored the WEF’s “Great Reset” framework. He also maintains a public profile page on the WEF platform.
Tim Ayres (Senator & Assistant Minister): Ayres formally represented the Albanese government on the ground at the WEF Annual Meeting in Davos in January 2023. During the summit, he conducted high-level diplomatic meetings, including sideline trade talks with international ministers.
Penny Wong (Foreign Minister): Wong is identified among senior Australian leaders who maintain an official profile page or sit within the broader structural policy orbit of the institution.
Tanya Plibersek (Minister for the Environment and Water): Similar to Wong, Plibersek is frequently listed by researchers tracking Australian political overlap with global networks due to her registered profile page within the WEF database.
Kevin Rudd (Former Prime Minister): Rudd is a long-standing, active Davos regular. Even after leaving domestic office, he has frequently attended the summit and sat on official WEF panels to speak on global issues like the US-China rivalry and international diplomacy.
Wayne Swan (Former Treasurer & Former ALP National President): Swan has historically engaged with the policy language of the forum, frequently referencing or addressing economic inequality debates timed around the annual Davos meetings.
.
and a few more selling us out
The Australian Labor Party (ALP) has deep historical and contemporary ties to the United Nations (UN), specifically linked to its core diplomatic hubs in New York (UN Headquarters) and Geneva (European Headquarters and specialized agencies).
1. New York (UN Headquarters)
Anthony Albanese (Prime Minister): Albanese has directly driven Australia’s high-level engagement in New York. He used the UN General Assembly (UNGA) in New York as a primary global stage to announce historic shifts in Australian foreign policy—such as outlining Australia’s positioning on Palestinian statehood and advocating for global social media regulations. He also officially launched Australia’s formal diplomatic bid in New York for an elected seat on the UN Security Council for the 2029–30 term.
Penny Wong (Foreign Minister): As Australia’s top diplomat, Wong anchors the ALP’s regular, institutional connection to New York. She spends significant time at the UN Headquarters leading multilateral negotiations, managing Australia’s voting alignments, and coordinating with global counterparts during high-level UNGA weeks.
Dr. H.V. Evatt (Historical Legacy): You cannot look at the ALP’s connection to New York without “Doc” Evatt. The former Labor Leader was one of the foundational architects of the United Nations. He served as the President of the UN General Assembly in New York from 1948 to 1949 and played a pivotal role in drafting the Universal Declaration of Human Rights.
2. Geneva (UN European Hub & Specialised Agencies)
Ged Kearney (Assistant Minister for Health and Aged Care): Kearney maintains strong links to Geneva through her extensive background as a prominent labor leader (former President of the Australian Council of Trade Unions). This background ties directly into the International Labour Organization (ILO), a major UN specialized agency headquartered in Geneva.
Pat Conroy (Minister for International Development and the Pacific): Conroy represents the Albanese government’s intersection with major Geneva-based global humanitarian funds and UN operations, such as the UN High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR) and disaster risk networks, which coordinate global aid allocations out of Switzerland.
3. Diplomatic Postings
Bob Carr (Former Foreign Minister & Premier): Since retiring from domestic politics, the veteran Labor figure has remained a vocal institutional proponent of the UN, frequently engaging with international law, UN treaties, and multilateral systems managed through the Geneva and New York diplomatic corps.
Look at this military ceremony at 10:00 and the guy between Trump and Melania appears to be Steve Scalise, it took me a long time to identify him, he is now majority leader in the house, in other words major controller of the congress. In the video at 10:00 you can see him making the N’Apollyon sign of the minion, the Frenchies hidden hand, so he is owned by DuPonts &/or Rockerfellas. This is so shifty, he looks hung over, he remembers to do the hand signal after a second or two. The assassins of Archduke Ferdinand were supposedly “the black hand” and look at the death circuses of ww1 and Napoleon 3 and just imagine what could be done with space weapons, bio weapons, techie weapons, on a society which has been made totally dependent on global structures eg Woolworths supply chain, etc.

This sign of submission could be any number of our fake politicians, we know the WEF Young Global Leaders who have infiltrated our parliament, they are Andrews Bragg and Charlton, Claire Oneill, Sarah Hanson-Young, Kate Chaney, another couple are Kayla Murnain (ALP minion busted for a secret donation from the CCP ) and Jessica Mauboy a favourite of ABC-TV propaganda unit. They all work for Swissy, Uncle Klaus can ring them up anytime for “career advancement”
We use a little tiny full-stop or other character to separate the paragraphs. Looks awful without them doesn’t it!
Susan Kokinda is right, on some points. It is what she gets wrong which concerns me.
Does she ever speak against the Bolsheviks. The non-existent holocaust and gas chambers or Israel.
She supports Bessent who wishes to attack Iran. She does not refer to Bessent’s husband partner.
Bessent talks about taking the head off the snake. Another Lindsay Graham. A war monger.
I am not a fan of the Ayatollah type regime though who are we to judge.
We in the West have enough problems with damned Christianity.
The Vatican did nothing to support the Russian Orthodox Christians?
Promethean Action is the continuation of Lyndon la Rouche who vehemently hated and attacked the City of London, the British Empire and also the English monarchy including Queen Elizabeth.
I believe Queen Elizabeth was an honourable person who in the 1980s said “There are powerful and dark forces at work in this world”. She would know. She moved in the circles of the upper echelon and power.
Other comments have their head around the issues.
History:
Staggeringly the monarchies of England, Germany and Russia were related.
George V, Wilhelm II and Nicholas II.
The British Empire ruled the world and controlled the world through trade and originally merchant shipping.
Germany rose up as late power. They built higher quality goods in newer factories. Steam meant locomotives and rail across Europe with a line planned to Baghdad. Shock horror.
The British Empire – City of London – not the monarchy – moved to take Germany down.
And planned WWI as early as 1880.
They created the Boer wars to get the gold for funding. Research The Milner Group.
They created WWII.
The monarchy of England could not assist their cousins the Romanov’s in Russia who were murdered by the Bolsheviks.
The COL, British Empire along with America supported the communist Soviet Union in WWII.
At the end of WWII Gen. George Patton said we have been fighting the wrong enemy. We must continue and take Moscow.
Patton was murdered.
I apologise for the brief history lesson. These are the matters which Susan & Promethean do not rationalise.
I do not believe there are White Hats nor do I believe Trump is their Man.
We live in leaderless and perilous times.
Point of interest.
The American economic system is not ‘good’. It is exploitative.
Untamed capitalism which brought about monopolies.
Capitalism and communism both feed from monopolies.
We need a fair and just system.
We don’t need wars.
Prior to WWII I found myself supporting Hitler and National Socialist Germany.
Prior to WWIII I find myself supporting Putin and Motherland Russia.
this is nonsense. bessant is deeper state than the deep state. trump is no white knight. anyone who thinks he is is deluded
Given that Indonesia is emerging as the next big Asian tiger economy, we should be ramping up steel production to cater to this new market given our close proximity. We have plenty of iron ore which is shipped out of Port Hedland, just a row-boat ride from Indonesia, this is an ideal location to ramp up our steel manufacturing for the export market.
What we don’t have in Port Hedland though is coal, that’s on the other side of the country in Queensland. Would it make economic sense to build another east-west rail line across the top to bring Queensland coal to a steelworks in the Pilbara?
There has to be more value in exporting Australian made steel instead of the raw iron ore and coal to foreign markets.
PS. This Trump versus City of London stuff is just nonsense. The US Congress and the White House are controlled out of Tel Aviv, the “perfidious Albion” story is just an attempt to mask that reality.
What gibberish. The operators of the City of London Head Office of Operations began their move to New Amsterdam – New York in 1910, After they successfully negotiated their takeover win in the War of 1812.
The relocation clearly took a while to organise and prepare. It was pretty much wholly completed after WW2 and the Marshall Plan. Not to mention after the operators’ establishment of the biggest MIC mankind has ever seen. Anything else is just diversion and misdirection.
Trump is Deep State. Promethean Action justifies his every move because in their minds it is bringing down the “City of London” and he can do no wrong by doing so. They are deceived, as are anyone who believes them…..PS How do people give a thumbs up to posts they like on this site? And, how do they separate paragraphs in their comments?????
Our industry is being driven by the energy of those who give us their wind from orifices where the sun don’t shine. It’s Yet another significant and foundational industry being demolished in Australia right before our very own eyes? Step by step.

Oz has come a long way since the 1970s and since its days of self respect and self sufficiency.

But don’t worry, be happy. Do nothing. Just sit back and watch us being fkd over, Step by step.
