History
Promethean Action was founded in 2024 by longtime followers of controversial political figure Lyndon LaRouche, rebranding from LaRouche PAC Action. The group claims to apply LaRouche’s “Promethean” ideas to current political, economic, and cultural crises, emphasizing the role of Donald Trump as a transformational figure. They explicitly distance themselves from Helga Zepp-LaRouche and her affiliated organizations (Schiller Institute, LaRouche Legacy Foundation, etc.).

Funded by / Ownership
Promethean Action is backed by supporters of the LaRouche movement and Donald Trump. Its affiliated entity, Promethean PAC, is a fundraising arm promoting Trump-aligned candidates. The organization does not disclose specific donors, but their appeal for donations is heavily tied to opposition to establishment Republicans and defense of Trump’s agenda. There is no evidence of traditional nonprofit transparency, as neither an IRS Form 990 nor a clear governing body is publicly available.
Analysis / Bias
Promethean Action exhibits a strong Right-wing bias and overt pro-Trump alignment, frequently publishing polemical content accusing a so-called “British financial empire” of orchestrating global chaos. For example, the “Monday Brief” claims that British intelligence is behind global events designed to undermine Trump. The “Midweek Update” echoes similar themes of media and institutional conspiracies.
The organization promotes anti-climate change rhetoric (e.g., denying climate-related hurricanes) and critiques of “woke” environmental policies (Washington State ballot initiatives). Its tone and narratives closely resemble Trump-era populist propaganda, wrapped in pseudo-intellectual LaRouchian historical analogies (e.g., likening Trump to Prometheus, battling a modern-day Zeus). The organization’s mission invokes conspiratorial language, apocalyptic warnings, and fantastical visions of national rebirth through “fusion energy” and Trumpism.ioio
While some articles source events or quotes (e.g., Trump’s positions), many claims are presented without hyperlinks or primary sourcing, and several articles (including videos) rely entirely on ideological interpretation. Assertions about globalist agendas, British intelligence operations, and Satanic elites are not supported by verifiable evidence.
Failed Fact Check
- As of this review, Promethean Action has not been independently fact-checked by third-party organizations. However, it promotes unsubstantiated conspiracy theories similar to LaRouche PAC’s historical disinformation, including deep state control, climate denial, and British imperial domination narratives.
Overall, we rate Promethean Action as far-right biased and questionable based on the promotion of right-wing populist propaganda, conspiracy theories, pseudoscience, poor sourcing, and a lack of transparency. (D. Van Zandt 07/19/2025)
