🇷🇴 Georgescu’s story:

•⁠ ⁠You win the first round of the presidential election
•⁠ ⁠That election is annulled
•⁠ ⁠You run again in the next election
•⁠ ⁠You are banned from running in that one, and for life
•⁠ ⁠You are detained for 30 days without evidence
•⁠ ⁠You request house arrest
•⁠ ⁠It is denied, and you have to stay for another 30 days

And yes, this has happened in Romania, a country in the European Union.

Fking bullsh*t!!!

Denmark spent decades building nearly 5,000 wind turbines

Together, they produced 21.6 TWh in the last 12 months

One nuclear plant in Sweden made 23.3 TWh

Oh, and nuclear runs 24/7 — wind doesn’t

There's one big reason Denmark has some of the most expensive electricity in the world

Wanneer precies gaat onze overheid nu eens flink bezuinigen op ZICHZELF?

▪️De rijksoverheid groeide +30% FTE in 6 jaar

▪️De totale overheid telt inmiddels 1,1 MILJOEN FTE

▪️Dit kost ons €97 MILJARD per jaar.

De overheid herverdeelt welvaart, maar creeert dat NIET

J’ai entendu dire que la France était finie, qu’il était trop tard pour la sauver.

Mais la France est toujours aussi belle, enviable même. Sa grandeur n’a pas disparu, elle ne demande qu’à renaître.

Nous avons surmonté en un an un problème cent fois plus grave, sans avoir les moyens dont dispose la France.

La France pourrait y arriver en une semaine.

1. US starts war in Ukraine.
2. US tells EU to ban Russian energy.
3. US breaks all other energy supply chains.
4. US tells EU to buy energy at inflated price from US.
5. US gets that energy cheap from Russia to sell to EU at huge profit.

That's literally what has happened.

Merz, former BlackRock chairman in Germany, I believe has a serious conflict of interest. I know, people point out that he is the grandson of Nazi party official, Josef Paul Sauvigny, who joined the SA in 1933. However, if Ukraine loses the war, BlackRock’s $800 billion fund to “rebuild Ukraine” will become one of the biggest losses in financial history.

European Business Magazine, February 28, 2026 wrote: “BlackRock is leading an $800 billion investment framework to rebuild Ukraine".

Exploderende netwerkkosten!
Ligt allemaal aan uzelf volgens de netbeheerders: u wilt perse allemaal tegelijk koken 🤣
Echter: elektriciteitsverbruik van huishoudens staat al jaren stil. De productie van zonne- en windstroom is wel geëxplodeerd.

Whitney Webb is explaining how Palantir was built. It is the same story Danny Casolaro died chasing, and Israel and Robert Maxwell are in the middle of it.

Casolaro was found dead in a Martinsburg hotel bathtub on August 10, 1991. Wrists slashed a dozen times. Ruled a suicide. He had told his brother that if he turned up dead, it would not be an accident. The files for the book he called The Octopus were gone.

What he was tracking was not one scandal. It was a network. The Inslaw/PROMIS theft. Iran-Contra. BCCI. The October Surprise allegations. Arms and intel cutouts like Cabazon-Wackenhut. A bankruptcy judge had already found the Justice Department obtained Inslaw's enhanced PROMIS by "trickery, fraud and deceit." That ruling was later tossed on jurisdiction, not on the facts. The allegation that stuck was that the software was backdoored and sold or given to foreign governments so intelligence services could read the databases it sat on. Israel was at the front of that list.

Webb's Palantir history is that pattern, a decade later, with some of the same people.

John Poindexter was the highest-ranking Reagan official indicted over Iran-Contra. After 9/11 he was put in charge of DARPA's Total Information Awareness, a dragnet built to fuse commercial and government data and predict crime and terror before they happened. Congress defunded it in 2003 after the backlash. The same year Peter Thiel incorporated Palantir. Richard Perle introduced Thiel and Alex Karp to Poindexter. Perle had already been caught in the 1970s passing classified material to the Israeli embassy, and he later had deep ties to Netanyahu's first government. Karp has said the CIA was the intended client from the start. In-Q-Tel, the CIA's venture arm, was an early backer. Palantir engineers were at Langley every other week in the early years.

PROMIS was the 1980s case-management system allegedly turned into a spy tool. The claim Casolaro was chasing, and that Webb has documented, is that Robert Maxwell helped move the bugged version. A trapdoor was planted so Israeli intelligence could read any database the software touched, and Maxwell was the salesman who carried it to governments and institutions abroad. Palantir Gotham is the 2000s version of the same job. Stitch the databases. Surface the hidden links. Sell pre-crime as predictive policing. Same function. Private letterhead. So the constitutional fight Congress already won does not have to be refought.

The part most people miss is at the end of the clip. Webb says CIA CIO Alan Wade, who helped shape the early Palantir product and had been inside the TIA world, teamed with Christine Maxwell on a homeland-security program called Chiliad. Christine is Robert Maxwell's daughter. The Maxwell family did not stop at Ghislaine. Robert Maxwell was tied to the PROMIS distribution story. His daughter shows up later on pre-crime software with a CIA official out of the same surveillance program Palantir was built to replace.

So the chain runs like this. Stolen DOJ software in the 1980s. Robert Maxwell and Israeli intelligence on the backdoored version. Iran-Contra figures. Then the same Iran-Contra figure running TIA. Then a Maxwell daughter and a TIA-linked CIA official on pre-crime software. Then Palantir as the scaled private version, introduced by a man already tied to Israeli intelligence channels.

Casolaro was trying to map the first half. He never got to the second half. Palantir did not exist yet. His files disappeared. The architecture did not.

The Octopus was a thesis about a standing network that builds surveillance software, routes it through private cutouts, and uses Iran-Contra-era operators and Israeli intelligence partners to keep it off the books. PROMIS was tentacle one. Robert Maxwell was the courier. TIA was the failed government version. Palantir is tentacle two.

The software Casolaro died investigating, after it learned to survive a congressional ban by becoming a company.

Simon Andriesz, the whistleblower who exposed links between Epstein & Howard Lutnick, died by suicide.

He was a former senior employee of BGC Partners - a firm founded & run by Lutnick before his appointment by Trump.

This is a short fragment of the Dutch government talking about #Crypto.

In their words 'crypto's..' in a simplified way exaggerating that every crypto is the same.

These folks have zero clue what crypto assets are. Literally zero.

In the Netherlands, you'll be required to pay 36% unrealized capital gains tax if you're holding them in self-custody on your #Bitcoin and #Altcoins.

Completely lunatic.

But, they say, if you invest in a fund, then that will be excluded and you'll only have to pay 36% on the realized gains.

However, as none of the Dutch funds are regulated, it means that it requires the investor to invest €100.000 in order to be eligible for that.

The average investor is being bankrupted by the government, and the government is simply too stupid to see it.

[Martin A. Armstrong @ArmstrongEcon]

The deception and lies did not begin with the Minsk Agreement. There is substantial evidence that U.S. Secretary of State James Baker gave Soviet leader Mikhail Gorbachev assurances in February 1990 that NATO would NOT expand eastward.

However, whether those assurances amounted to deliberate deception has been long debated. The declassified documents establish that the assurances were made. What they do not conclusively establish is that Washington deliberately intended to deceive Moscow when they were given.

There is NO QUESTION that James Baker actually made that promise in February 1990. On February 9, 1990, Secretary of State James Baker met Soviet leader Mikhail Gorbachev in Moscow to discuss German reunification and the possibility of a united Germany remaining in NATO. Baker proposed that NATO’s jurisdiction would not move one inch eastward if Moscow accepted German reunification within NATO.

The American memorandum of the meeting records Baker saying:

“There would be no extension of NATO’s jurisdiction for forces of NATO one inch to the east.”

This was not merely a casual remark. Baker was exploring a diplomatic arrangement designed to secure Soviet acceptance of German reunification.

This is the Sovereign Debt Crisis. The fall of the West can be largely silent, much like the fall of the Soviet Union.

As I have said many times, Russia collapsed all by itself because COMMUNISM was not economically sustainable.

Here in the West, rising “progressive” movements are also undermining the economy; like the USSR, they are economically inefficient and will collapse under its own weight.
