The Monday Brief - While America Builds, Europe Schemes To Rob Its Citizens - August 31, 2026
0:00Today, the G20 group of major economies
0:03will meet in Asheville, North Carolina.
0:06It will be a showdown between two very
0:09different ideas about economic wealth.
0:12One of them always ends up stealing from
0:14its own citizens or the citizens of
0:16other countries. The other makes the
0:19well-being of its citizens the central
0:21goal. Here's Treasury Secretary Scott
0:23Bass talking about his plan.
0:26>> We want to bring the G20 back to its
0:28core mission. And that core mission is
0:30talking about, you know, what can econ
0:33what can countries do, economies do, how
0:36can we band together uh to have better
0:38global growth. And our message to, you
0:41know, our allies, our trading partners
0:44is that global growth is the way to take
0:48care of this mountain of debt.
0:50>> The central bankers of the G20 and the
0:53EU, however, are committed Malthusians
0:56and imperialists. They think growth of
0:59populations or economics creates a
1:02situation they can't control. They have
1:05always paid their debts through wars or
1:07by looting their own citizens. And right
1:09now they're drumming up a new way to do
1:12just that. I'm Bubba Boyd and have
1:15followed the fight between the builders
1:16and the looters in economics ever since
1:191971. Today I'm going to first tell you
1:22about the G20's horrible history. Then
1:25we'll show you how Trump's economy is
1:26the exact opposite. And we'll end by
1:29telling you about a plot to quote
1:31redirect the savings of Europe's
1:33citizens. The G20 conference of major
The Past G20 Horror Shows
1:36economic powers took its current shape
1:38back in 2008. What happened then? That's
1:42when the entire world globalist
1:44financial system collapsed and this
1:47group was charged with enforcing a
1:48consensus about what should happen next.
1:51The banks were bailed out. The public
1:54wrote the check. The rescue worked for
1:56the major financial institutions, but
1:58the middle and working classes took it
2:00on the chin. Many lost everything. You
2:04might remember how the Obama
2:06administration told us that nobody would
2:08be prosecuted for Wall Street's
2:10destruction of the economy because the
2:11banks were quote too big [clears throat]
2:13to fail. Before the bailout area had
2:16even run its course, the G20 agenda
2:18shifted to climate. That was the next
2:21grand scheme to limit growth and
2:23maintain control of populations while
2:26huge wealth flowed to an elite class of
2:29multinational operators and their
2:31professional retainers. Lord Mallet
2:34Brown, he's the man who runs George
2:36Soros. He laid out this plan as early as
2:39the 2009 G20 bailout conference. Here he
2:43is. In an address to the world's media
2:46at the foreign press association, Lord
2:48Malik Brown, Minister for Africa, Asia
2:50and the United Nations said the summit
2:52had five main aims. To
2:54>> summarize the ambition of the summit, it
2:57is to uh take coordinated steps which
3:01try to first uh limit the impact of the
3:06economic turndown and get the global
3:08economy back to recovery as quickly as
3:11possible. Second, repair the damage done
3:14to the financial system and put in place
3:17uh some regulatory and transparency
3:19arrangements which would ensure it
3:21doesn't break down again. Third, uh make
3:24sure that poor countries and middle
3:26inome countries needs are also addressed
3:29at this summit in terms of the special
3:31financing and support uh that they need
3:34which is not domestically available to
3:36them. fourth that we fight against
3:39protectionism and fifth that we make the
3:41recovery as green as possible.
3:43>> The recovery had to be green. The result
3:47was a ratcheting down of human
3:49expectations and existence based on
3:51deliberate reliance on very primitive
3:54energy sources. The green agenda says
3:56unrestrained economic growth will cause
3:59the earth to overheat and destroy
4:01humanity. Speaking in Africa in 2013,
4:04Barack Obama said just that. He told
4:07African students that they shouldn't
4:09count on higher living standards until a
4:11new way of producing green energy could
4:13be found.
4:14>> Ultimately, if you think about all the
4:16youth that everybody's mentioned here in
4:18Africa, if everybody's raising living
4:20standards to the point where everybody's
4:22got a car and everybody's got air
4:24conditioning and everybody's got a big
4:25house,
4:27uh, well, the planet will boil over.
4:29Meanwhile, the very same banks that were
4:32too big to fail cashed in on the hoax.
4:35It was all supposed to end in a global
4:37financial entity setting budgets for
4:39every nation. That's what came out of
4:42the Glasgow climate alliance for net
4:44zero. The alliance for net zero was
4:47supposed to direct all world credit of
4:49any kind into green finance. It would
4:52penalize anyone who wanted to build.
4:55Mark Carney was the head of that. That's
4:57why he blew up the trade negotiations
4:59and declared war on Trump last week
5:01ahead of the midterms. So Scott Besson
5:04walking into the G20 Asheville
5:06conference and saying that physical
5:08economic growth is the only topic
5:11shatters the entire framework of the
5:13last 40 years. It's going to be very
5:16interesting to watch. Now, if all of
5:18this is clearing the air for you about
5:20what's happened economically in our
5:22lifetimes, you should subscribe now to
5:24our free newsletter at
5:25prometheiaction.com.
5:27We show you much more of this picture
5:28there. The link is in the description.
The Builders: America's Self-Sufficiency Push
5:31Now, Trump didn't just kill their scheme
5:33by pulling out of all the climate
5:35nonsense. Just listen to Scott Bessent
5:38speak back in May at the Reagan Library.
5:41>> The truth is that for too long, America
5:44had been asleep. We mistook comfort for
5:48strength. We substituted efficiency for
5:52resilience and consumption as a measure
5:55of prosperity.
5:57We told ourselves that so long as goods
6:00were cheaper overseas, it did not matter
6:03whether factories went dark in Michigan,
6:06Ohio, or Pennsylvania. We assumed that
6:09supply chains would always function
6:11smoothly and adversaries would always
6:14behave responsibly and the invisible
6:17hand would correct vulnerabilities that
6:19too few in public life had the courage
6:22to confront. And while we reassured
6:25ourselves with those assumptions, risk
6:28accumulated all around us. Somewhere
6:31along the way, we lost sight of a
6:33foundational principle that previous
6:36generations understood instinctively.
6:39Economic security is national security.
6:42For a nation that cannot manufacture,
6:46mine, ship, or refine its needs
6:48gradually seeds its strength and
6:51sovereignty to others.
6:53>> He went on to say that securing the
6:55supply chains to make America fully
6:58self-sufficient is national security's
7:01primary challenge today. I thought Glenn
7:04Beck did a good job explaining this the
7:06other day.
7:06>> Let me tell you what's happening. the
7:08new world order that was promised by
7:10Bush one and Bush 2, you know, the
7:13globalist new world order. Looks like we
7:16don't want it. And uh the reason why we
7:19don't want it is because we're seeing
7:21that America has to go down the crapper
7:23if globalism is to work. And every
7:26president that we have had in recent
7:28memory has been working towards that and
7:31simply managing our decline. Trump is
7:35the first guy to come in and go, "We're
7:36not going to do that. We're not going to
7:38do that. We're going to have a new
7:40golden era. We're going to have a great
7:42age for America into the 21st century.
7:44And so, he's not just reshaping America.
7:47He is reshaping the world. And I know
7:50this to be true because I have had
7:52conversations with several prime
7:54ministers in the last four months,
7:56private conversations, and all of them
7:58have said, "I know exactly what he's
8:00doing, and I know where the power is
8:01going."
8:02>> The whole piece by Glenn is well worth
8:04listening to. Trump is about making the
8:07stuff a country needs instead of
8:09financing the stuff other countries
8:11makes. It's critical minerals. It's
8:13energy production. It's the raw
8:15manufacturing inputs that turn into
8:17everything else. The copper and the
8:19lithium and the steel that never show up
8:21in a headline but show up in every
8:24single supply chain that matters. It's
8:26taking a labor force victimized by
8:29rotten education, the consumer economy,
8:31and drugs and upskilling them to the
8:34future jobs where one income can support
8:36a family. It takes time. It may take
8:39military action. This is what the Iran
8:42war has been about. Not letting terroris
8:44maniacs controlling the straight of
8:46Hormuz and the city of London control
8:48petroleum and other commodity prices.
8:51That's what the new oil deal with
8:53Venezuela is about. And it's not just
8:56making sure we're self-sufficient in the
8:58current economy. It's making sure we are
9:01making the scientific and technological
9:03discoveries at the heart of the next
9:06economy. Now, on Wednesday, Energy
9:09Secretary Chris Wright presented the
9:11Trump administration's nuclear energy
9:13renaissance plans, including powering
9:15all future shipping with nuclear
9:17reactor. Here's Wright.
9:19>> Imagine shipping where refueling is
9:22maybe it's every few years. It's not
9:24every voyage. And we can have additional
9:27power and we can ship faster. Same
9:29number of ships can bring more goods. We
9:31can lower the cost of trade and
9:34transport between nations. I should stop
9:37talking because I get too excited. But I
9:39think it's a great vision. It's a great
9:41vision that we all have. It won't happen
9:44overnight. But if you look at nuclear in
9:47in this country, you know, we we first
9:50developed power to light light bulbs at
9:52our Idaho National Lab in 1951
9:56before most everyone in this room was
9:58born. We had a surge of development in
10:02the United States of about a hundred
10:03nuclear reactors built really launched
10:06and built over two or three decades. And
10:09we had a pause. I think the world again
10:12as it as it often does kind of kind of
10:15lost its way a little bit.
10:16>> Things like this are happening every
10:19single day in the Trump administration.
10:21You have to either come here to
10:22Prometheian Action or go to the White
10:24House website to find them because the
10:27media is trying to keep their meaning a
10:29secret. Now, let's go to the dark side.
The Bankers: Europe's Plan to Loot Its Own Citizens
10:32This is Christine Lagard. She's the
10:34current president of the European
10:36Central Bank. She will be at the Group
10:38of 20 in Asheville. Recently she and
10:41Mark Carney have been doing a mut and
10:43Jeff act about that middle powers of the
10:46entire world like Europe and others
10:50organizing an economic block for
10:52themselves. Carney says it has the
10:55explicit purpose of neutralizing Trump's
10:57America. Lagard is more diplomatic.
11:00Although she famously ran out of the
11:02World Economic Forum event where
11:04Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnik was
11:06speaking. She's probably bringing her
11:08track shoes to the G20. Lagard has been
11:11scheming for years to turn the savers
11:13accounts of European citizens into
11:16capital investment for use by the EU's
11:18bureaucrats. Ursula Vanderline, the
11:21president of the European Commission,
11:23just said these savings accounts and
11:25banks are quote lazy money which needs
11:28to be redirected into capital for the EU
11:31by the end of the year. These two ladies
11:34never ask themselves why Europe is so
11:36unattractive that investment money from
11:38the EU flees to the United States. They
11:41can't fathom that Europe citizens hate
11:43and fear them so much that they stow
11:46their money in the equivalent of
11:47mattresses. The bankers don't plan to
11:50steal these funds outright like they did
11:52with Russia's European funds after the
11:54Ukraine conflict started. They plan to
11:57offer all sorts of tax breaks and
11:59seductive returns on investments to get
12:02the money. But the problem is what the
12:04EU plans to invest in with these funds.
12:08They're the same things that have been
12:09bankrupting Europe. And the Sabers know
12:12it. The EU needs these funds to fund the
12:15war in Ukraine, which they say will fund
12:16forever. They continue to insist on the
12:19green energy transition, which has
12:21driven their energy cost skyhigh. They
12:24continue to keep their borders open and
12:26support free trade. That's even after an
12:29upsurge in violent lagard claim and
12:31China flooding Europe with enough cars
12:34to collapse Germany's car industry. And
12:37there's a further rub to this story. The
12:39US debt Scott Basset is using massive
12:42growth to retire comes from the same
12:45policies implemented here. Billions in
12:48handouts to Ukraine by Joe Biden. the
12:51Green Policies and Build Back Better
12:53Act, the complete failure to anticipate
12:56or build for future needs. Most of all,
12:59it comes from letting a global banking
13:01cabal run your finances. Now, I can't
13:04tell you what's going to happen at the
13:05G20 or what the big fight will be about.
13:09It's the same one the Democrats and
13:10their socialist and communist wing have
13:13with Trump and Bessim. They think
13:15economies and resources are forever
13:17fixed and defined and you just have to
13:20distribute them better to get justice.
13:22But that's not how functioning economies
13:25and the universe work. If you outsource
13:28the making of the means of existence,
13:30you not only lose physical plants, you
13:32lose the skills to run them. If you cut
13:35yourself off from advanced energy
13:37sources and don't pursue the most
13:39advanced science and technology, your
13:42entire economy begins a slow internal
13:45collapse. That's the funeral p Europe
13:48has made for itself and the one the
13:50Democrats would like to return us to.
13:53We're sticking on the story because who
13:55wins this fight will define our future.
13:57We need to get this story about Donald
13:59Trump's economic revolution out as
14:02widely as possible ahead of the midterm.
14:04so that people fully understand it. And
14:06we need your help to do that. So please,
14:09if you can contribute as much you can to
14:12help us do that, help us grow. This has
14:14been your Wednesday update. Thanks for
14:16listening.
