@RnaudBertrand @mdiplo You probably have more readers than the mdiplo! And you are far more interesting to read.

[Arnaud Bertrand @RnaudBertrand]

Very honored to have published an article in Le Monde Diplomatique (@mdiplo), my favorite media outlet in France (and, frankly, one of the only good ones). Link here: https://t.co/FwTeR7RGbB

I write about the energy competition between the U.S. and China - green energy v fossil fuels - and the consequences for Europe.

And I explain, which is something that many people are missing, that behind Trump's rhetoric against green energy (for instance him saying recently at the UN that it was "a scam" and "a joke") the fastest growing source of electricity in the U.S. is in fact - BY FAR - green energy!

Here is a number that'll surprise many: in 2024 green energy accounted for 90.5% (!!!) of all new electrical generating capacity added in the United States (https://t.co/T9HQJStzLS)

The state of Texas is a case in point: the archetypical oil state in the U.S., they're adding solar panels like crazy at a faster rate than even California (https://t.co/aOMQw10RuK).

Which all leads me to this hypothesis in the article: that Trump's anti-green energy crusade is itself the real scam: tell your "partners" it's a scam so they keep buying your expensive gas and oil, while you yourself increasingly refuse to eat your own dog food.

And Europe, sadly, is buying it, both figuratively and literally - Von Der Leyen having agreed over the summer, as we all know, to buy $750 billion worth of U.S. LNG over the next 3 years.

Hence the title of the article: "L'électron, la farce et son dindon" - "The electron, the farce, and its turkey".

We have this expression in French: "le dindon de la farce", literally "the turkey of the farce" (where "farce" can mean both stuffing and joke/farce), which means "the sucker who gets conned". Europe being the turkey getting stuffed in this farce, ending up - as I document in the article - with electricity prices 3 times higher than those in the U.S. and China whilst subsidizing U.S. fossil fuels.

Ouch, that's going to hurt a lot of feelings : Michel Bettane, probably France's most respected wine critic and the founder of the "Bettane & Desseauve's Guide to the Wines of France", just said after a wine tasting tour in China that Chinese wines now outshine France in winemaking standards.

His exact words (from https://t.co/JIlmIvPsfp) after a wine-tasting tour of China during which he evaluated more than 300 premium Chinese wines: “We encountered almost no wines with serious flaws, the overall solidity of the winemaking standard is, in fact, superior to what we often find in our annual tastings in France.”

I really wonder what we'll be left with. Bread was already gone since China won the World Bread Competition (Mondial du Pain) held in France (https://t.co/F4d3jQy2Wa). Now it's wine...

We still have cheese at least, I guess.

The Multi-Billion Dollar Lie: How LDL Became "The Bad Cholesterol"

In a fascinating exchange on The Joe Rogan Experience, human biologist Gary Brecka deconstructed one of modern medicine's most entrenched narratives: the demonization of LDL cholesterol.

Brecka argues the "LDL is bad" story was built on a flawed foundation of isolated science. Researchers observed a correlation—people with heart disease often had high LDL. But, crucially, they didn't solve for the context.

What were their insulin levels? Fasting glucose? Inflammatory markers like CRP? The high LDL was often a fellow traveler in a body under metabolic distress from poor diet and lifestyle, not necessarily the sole villain.

The proof, Brecka posits, is in the outcomes. If high LDL were a direct cause of mortality, then forcibly lowering it with statins should significantly extend life. "Lo and behold," he states, "we see no extension of mortality."

So why does the narrative persist? Brecka points to a trillion-dollar industry and the rigid "Standard of Care."

Physicians are trained and financially incentivized to operate within this box. The standard of care for high LDL is a statin. To practice outside of it risks their license, malpractice coverage, and career.

Who defines this standard? Brecka is unequivocal: "Pharma dictates that that's the standard of care. They also dictate the reimbursement rates."

The system, he explains, creates a herd mentality. It's not that doctors are trying to cause harm; they are practicing within a system designed to maintain a specific protocol, one that is incredibly profitable and legally protected.

The conversation is a powerful reminder that true health requires looking at the whole system, not just an isolated biomarker.

What are your thoughts on the role of standard of care in modern medicine?

@JuanVander44953 @SizweLo China cares less about being the no 1 innovator nation in the world. This ranking is overrated and misleading.

It takes great innovators and engineers to accomplish what China is doing today. Please educate yourself on mind-blowing past, present and future Chinese innovations.

Representative Anna Paulina’s claims, while sensational to the uninitiated, are consistent with centuries of classified intelligence, occult records, and emerging quantum physics. The convergence of these disciplines points to a clear and sobering conclusion: interdimensional entities not only exist, but their engagement with human civilization predates recorded history.

1. Historical Corroboration
From the Sumerian Anunnaki tablets to the Emerald Tablets of Thoth, civilizations have chronicled “sky beings” with non-linear travel capabilities and mastery of energy manipulation. Egyptian mystery schools spoke of Netjeru—beings that could phase between realms. In military-intelligence parlance, these are not “myths” but historical intelligence briefs encoded in religious and cultural frameworks to survive censorship. These records describe propulsionless craft, temporal displacement, and matter transmutation—identical to what modern U.S. Special Access Programs (SAPs) have recovered.

2. Intelligence Infrastructure & Reverse Engineering
Post-WWII, classified projects like Paperclip, Blue Book, and the still-denied Aquarius funneled recovered craft into compartmentalized research cells. These cells operate under Unacknowledged Special Access Programs (USAPs), allowing for total deniability. Representative Paulina’s assertion that technology has been reverse-engineered aligns with leaked technical schematics from the 1980s showing metamaterials capable of phase-shifting light and altering gravitational vectors—capabilities beyond known aerospace engineering.

3. Quantum Physics & Interdimensional Mechanics
Current quantum field theory recognizes the plausibility of brane-world cosmology, where our universe is a 3D membrane within higher-dimensional space. The Casimir effect, quantum entanglement, and zero-point energy extraction are not science fiction—they’re proven laboratory phenomena hinting at the mechanics these beings exploit. An interdimensional craft would not “travel” in our sense but translate coordinates in higher-dimensional space, bypassing relativistic constraints. This explains instantaneous repositioning and observed “right-angle turns” at hypersonic speeds without inertial stress.

4. Strategic & Militaristic Implications
For national defense, the existence of such entities collapses the conventional deterrence paradigm. If a force can penetrate secure airspace, disable nuclear platforms, and manipulate electromagnetic spectrums at will, then traditional sovereignty is obsolete. The strategic priority shifts to deterrence by entanglement—embedding human and interdimensional interests so deeply that hostile action becomes mutually destructive. The U.S. military’s clandestine liaison units—possibly embedded within JSOC—likely operate as both diplomatic envoys and counterintelligence monitors to assess factional intentions among these beings.

5. Viral Reality Check
Paulina’s revelation is not a “theory”—it’s the declassification of humanity’s worst-kept secret. Denial is not ignorance; it is strategic disinformation to preserve the balance of power. The real battlefield is not land, sea, or air—it’s the contested interface between dimensions, where physics, intelligence, and metaphysics converge.

If this analysis went public in full, it would not merely “go viral.” It would reframe the human story from evolutionary accident to contested asset in a multi-dimensional theater of operations.

@AfricanHub_ Is this a joke!?

[𝘊𝘰𝘳𝘳𝘪𝘯𝘦 @OopsGuess]

🇨🇳 At the Shanghai Auto Show, China’s EV industry is thriving — yet Western media still frames it as a “response” to Tesla, as if China is eternally chasing.
In reality, Chinese automakers surpassed Tesla years ago — and never looked back.

Today, it’s the West that must “respond” to China.

The real story?
China’s EV dominance isn’t about stealing designs.
It’s about vision, sacrifice, and ruthless competition:
• Chinese firms knew they couldn’t beat legacy Western brands in gas cars.
• So they bet early and hard on green energy, building the future from scratch.
• Meanwhile, the West clung to their fading empires of oil and nostalgia.

China didn’t “steal” a market or a technology.
China created the future the West was too afraid to build.

THREAD 1: BLOOD, OIL, AND IOUs – The Dollar’s Violent Decline

The dollar didn’t become king by trust. It became king by murder, regime change, and financial blackmail. De-dollarization isn't a trend. It's self-defense. Here’s the history they buried.

@OopsGuess Ce n’est malheureusement pas la première fois, les problèmes sont récurrents autour des bases, des manifestations ont lieu régulièrement. C’est le temps ou jamais pour Japon de se libérer.

🇯🇵🇺🇸 A US Marine raped a woman on Okinawa base and injured another who tried to help her.

Japanese police “voluntarily questioned” the suspect with US permission. Voluntarily?

When a country has 50,000 foreign troops on its soil and can’t even arrest a rapist without approval—
It’s not an ally.
It’s a colony.
And a colony without dignity.

[Arnaud Bertrand @RnaudBertrand]

There's no overstating how transformational this is.

Japan effectively pivoted, now defending China against the US.

"Now Julian is free, we have all come to Rome to express our family’s gratitude for the Pope’s support during Julian’s persecution. Our children and I had the honor of meeting Pope Francis in June 2023 to discuss how to free Julian from Belmarsh prison. Francis wrote to Julian in prison and even proposed to grant him asylum at the Vatican." - Stella Assange
