BREAKING:
The Netherlands just told its citizens to go to hell.
They just approved a 36% tax on unrealized gains.
You didn't sell anything.
You didn't make a single euro in cash.
Your portfolio went up on paper.
The government sends you a bill anyway.
67,000 citizens petitioned against it.
Parliament approved it anyway.
No cash to pay the tax? Not their problem.
Asset crashes after you paid? Not their problem.
This is not tax policy.
This is the government treating your paper gains as their income.
Before you've made a single euro.
The most talented Dutch investors are already leaving.
The most ambitious builders are already gone.
Capital goes where it is treated best.
And right now that is anywhere but the Netherlands.
2028 is coming. Plan accordingly.
In 2016, the Netherlands Meteorological Institute adjusted temperatures at De Bilt, the country's main climate station. Daily maximums from 1901 to 1950 were lowered by up to 1.9C, which removed 16 of 23 heatwaves from the record.
The altered data were then used to claim modern heatwaves were unprecedented.
Four researchers challenged the changes, but the institute dismissed the criticism, so the analysis went to peer review. In 2021, it was published, conclusively demonstrating the method systematically erased historical heat extremes.
Today, the Meteorological Institute has quietly changed its approach, and as a result, seven erased heatwaves have been restored, including the extreme summer of 1947.
Here again, we have a government agency caught rewriting climate history. The Netherlands Meteorological Institute erased heatwaves of the past, ignored critics, and reinstated the truth only when the evidence became impossible to ignore.
Policies were built on that manipulated record.
Dutch farmers lost livelihoods.
Industry and the wider economy paid the price.
But accountability is coming.
🚨 BOMBSHELL FROM JAPAN — THEY CAN’T HIDE THIS ANYMORE
Professor Robert Clancy just dropped the receipts:
A massive Japanese study tracking 20 MILLION people found that ALL excess deaths were in the vaccinated group.
The unvaccinated group? ZERO excess deaths. And here’s the killer detail: mortality surges exactly 3 months after every booster — with peak deaths hitting around 100 days post-vaccination.
The pattern is undeniable. In my opinion, they can no longer suppress the information on the COVID vaccine. The data is out. The cover-up is crumbling. The world needs to see this.
Vice-President of the European Commission Kaja Kallas:
“If Europe cannot defeat Russia, how can we defeat China?”
You can spin it however you want, but the reality is that the European Union is an organization made up of id|ots.
A two-megawatt windmill is made up of 260 tons of steel that required 300 tons or iron ore and 170 tons of coking coal, all mined, transported and produced by hydrocarbons. It hold 700 gallons of oil and hydraulic fluid, and like car these need to be replaced every 9 months.
People might fall for the idea that we can merrily run on sunshine and breezes, alone, but with a few trillion dollars worth of mythical mega-batteries providing backup for a few minutes, it could spin until it falls apart over and over again and never generate as much energy as was invested in building it.
Anyone investing in silver or silver miners needs to understand what a CME Clearing Daily Delivery Notice means.
You have the sellers listed and the buyers who are taking delivery of physical silver. This is yesterday's notice. It shows activity for the business date of March 3, 2026 (intent date), with actual delivery scheduled for March 5, 2026. The settlement price that day was $82.923 per ounce (so each contract is worth about $414,615 at that price).
Top stoppers (buyers accepting delivery) included:
BOFA Securities (Bank of America) → 195 stopped.
JP Morgan Securities → 145 stopped.
Scotia Capital → 65 stopped.
Morgan Stanley → 62 stopped.
This means BOFA will purchase $80,849,925 worth of physical silver tomorrow at a price of $82.93 per ounce.
JP Morgan will purchase $60,119,175 worth of silver at $82.93.
So I hope you understand why BOFA and JP Morgan would try to smash the paper silver price as low as possible. They are actively buying physical silver in very large amounts. JP Morgan has accumulated more physical silver than any other entity in the past 6 months.
Is it a surprise that the JP Morgan analyst came out with a report that physical silver will average $81/oz in 2026. Why would JP Morgan pay $82.93/oz if they thought silver was going to average $81 this year. They lie in order to discourage retail buyers from purchases which increase the silver price. JP Morgan is accumulating much more silver in anticipation of significantly higher silver prices. It's all so obvious if you just study the data.
The world is more than 1 degree warmer, CO₂ has reached 427 ppm yet our planet is becoming a green paradise.
Global greening from higher CO₂ has delivered an unexpected windfall; 5.5 million km² of new greenery springing up across the world since 2,000 (NASA studies). This isn't just extra leaves. Green growth is equal to twice the area of the Amazon Rainforest and the Sahara Desert has lost 8% desert to new plant growth.
Across the Arctic, vegetation increased by 38% between 1985 and 2016. Between 2000 and 2017 satellites identified a 25% to 50% increase in vegetated lands turning green. Food production has been boosted by 35-40%.
This is the Earth’s way of self-correcting and 30% of these areas already have a natural cooling effect through water-vapor management. The planet isn't a passive victim, it's an active participant.
The UN climate ideology was about fear and control. The green reality is a story of trust.
Hoe kun je in de onderhandeling uitkomen op 5,5 miljard extra belasting, als je alledrie een forse lastenverlichting hebt beloofd? 🤔
Doorgerekend door CPB en al:
What a counterintuitive twist in the climate story.
The Sahara Desert of all places has shrunk by about 8% since the 1980s thanks to rising CO₂ levels fueling a remarkable global green renaissance.
Data from NASA’s AVHRR and MODIS instruments show that 25% to 50% of Earth's vegetated lands have become significantly greener, an area equivalent to roughly twice the continental United States.
CO₂ fertilization drove around 70% of this boom, making plants more efficient with water by reducing the time stomata (leaf pores) stay open, which in turn cuts water loss and boosts drought resistance.
This has allowed vegetation to reclaim arid edges in places like the Sahel (the Sahara's southern fringe), the Middle East and Australia's outback. The Sahara alone had lost around 8% of its desert, equivalent to over 700,000 km² of added green cover and pushing back the barren sand wastes in formerly inhospitable zones.
Atmospheric CO₂ now hovers around 430 ppm (early 2026 levels) enabling plants to thrive where they once couldn't. While climate change brings serious challenges, this greening shows a clear, measurable benefit from higher CO₂: and a greener, more resilient planet in many dry regions.
Commie Cortez humiliated again in Munich. 🤡
AOC called for a wealth tax in America, to which an Argentinian politician explained the consequences, having lived through wealth taxes in Argentina:
“You end up with just the tax and no wealth.”
😳😳😳A recent Italian study found that people who received at least 1 dose of the Covid shot are 34% more likely to develop colorectal cancer, 54% more likely to develop breast cancer, and 62% more likely to develop bladder cancer than the unvaccinated.
If you are Dutch and vote for any of the green dot parties ever again, you are in my opinion complicit in the destruction of a culture, an era, a generation of wealth and prosperity
Your best vote is to vote with your feet
NEW: Dutch Parliament Member Michel Hoogeveen explains how the 36% unrealized capital gains tax, just passed by the House of Representatives, will work.
Here is a more detailed example:
Step 1. Starting position
You own 500 shares.
Value on Jan 1, 2028: €50,000
Value on Jan 1, 2029: €100,000
So the paper gain is:
€100,000 − €50,000 = €50,000 unrealized profit
You did not sell. But for tax purposes, that €50,000 is treated as income.
Step 2. Apply exemption
You are married, so you get a €3,600 exemption.
€50,000 − €3,600 = €46,400 taxable amount
Tax rate: 36%
€46,400 × 36% = €16,704 tax bill
That bill is due in May, even though you never sold anything.
Step 3. Market falls before you pay
Now suppose by May the shares drop in value.
New total value: €60,000
So your portfolio is no longer worth €100,000. It’s worth €60,000.
But the tax bill is still €16,704, because it was calculated based on the January 1 valuation.
Step 4. You must sell shares to pay tax
To raise €16,704, you sell part of your shares.
After paying the tax, you’re left with:
€60,000 − €16,704 = €43,296
Originally you had 500 shares.
Now you have 360 shares left.
You were forced to sell 140 shares.
140 ÷ 500 = 28% of your shares gone.
Step 5. What happened economically?
Before the correction:
Paper gain was €50,000.
After the correction:
Portfolio is worth €60,000.
Original cost basis was €50,000.
Real gain is only €10,000.
But you paid €16,704 in tax.
So instead of being up €10,000, you are now:
€43,296 − €50,000 = €6,704 below your original starting value.
You turned a €10,000 real gain into a €6,704 net loss.
And you lost 28% of your shares permanently.

Wind and solar look cheap on paper, but only because their true costs are hidden.
Power grids must balance supply and demand every second. Wind and solar cannot do that. Their output follows the weather, which is variable. So every megawatt of wind or solar requires a matching megawatt of reliable backup.
A 100 megawatt wind farm does not replace a 100 megawatt gas plant. The gas plant still has to be built, staffed, fueled, and kept ready at all times.
Consumers are effectively paying for two systems.
But only one is accounted for.
Think of it like hiring a worker who only shows up 30% of the time. The hourly wage looks cheap, but you still need a fully trained backup worker available 24-7 to fill in for the other 70%.
That backup is required and still costs money even when sitting idle. But the extra cost is ignored.
This accounting trick explains why renewables look inexpensive in charts, while electricity prices soar in grids that rely heavily on them.
Globally, the renewable failure is clear.
In 2024, solar supplied just 1.4% of global primary energy. Wind supplied about 1.5%. Fossil fuels still provided around 87%.
This is not a global energy transition. It is a costly experiment played by a handful of Western economies.
