Dem plan: surrender to Iran and destroy domestic energy production. None of this is good for gas prices or national security.

🦔SpaceX signed a commitment to lease about $40 billion of Nvidia’s next-generation chips through a fund managed by Apollo, which SpaceX calls the largest GPU financing ever. Payments run about five years and start when the chips arrive in 2027. SpaceX carried about $38 billion of debt at the end of September, so this roughly doubles what it owes.
My Take
SpaceX’s CFO says its AI infrastructure pays for itself in less than a year. If that held up, SpaceX could buy the chips out of its own profits within a couple of years rather than commit to five years of payments to Apollo. Five years is also a long time for a chip. Nvidia puts out a new generation about every year, so by 2029 these will be a couple of generations old, and SpaceX will still owe about $8 billion a year in principal on them.
Musk posted the same weekend that more than 200 neoclouds face “guppy-level death.” He’s right that the smaller GPU renters are in trouble, and he just put SpaceX’s balance sheet behind the idea that it’s big enough to survive the cull. The money behind this lease comes from Apollo, BlackRock and KKR, the same private credit firms that want into your 401(k). If the bet goes wrong, some of that loss could end up in regular people’s retirement accounts.

Good Morning from Germany, where Mercedes is also being hit hard by the China shock. It joins BMW & VW in cutting its outlook, now targeting a car margin of just 2–3%, vs up to 5% before. Shares tumble 5.4%, taking this year’s loss to more than a third. Germany’s Big Three are now worth just €106bn combined. Tesla alone is worth €1.4tn, more than 13 times as much. China, once their profit engine, has become a major liability.

Senator Padilla continues to demonstrate his profound respect for the founding documents.
It is truly impressive how easily he can call for government investigations into private citizens simply because he dislikes their speech or their business decisions. The First Amendment, the Fourth Amendment, and the Fifth Amendment must be very flexible concepts in his mind. Perhaps the Bill of Rights was only meant as a temporary suggestion until certain people found it inconvenient.
This kind of selective reading of the Constitution is exactly what we can expect if Democrats get back in charge, I guess. Very reassuring for anyone who still thinks the government is supposed to follow the rules that apply to everyone else.

FORTRESS: The Pentagon is preparing every major U.S. military base to survive 90 days without outside support — no civilian power grid, no global supply chains, no outside fuel or water.
The initiative, revealed in documents reviewed by Fox News Digital, envisions portable nuclear reactors, massive battery storage, and microgrids that can disconnect installations from civilian electricity entirely. Strategic reserves of munitions, fuel, critical minerals, and medical supplies would be stockpiled based on wartime consumption rates. Civilian factories are being pre-identified to shift to defense production during a crisis.
Pentagon chief spokesperson Sean Parnell put it bluntly: "Power is combat now. Without electricity, you lose communications, water, logistics, assembly lines and just basic military command structures."

“Yeah, there are these companies called neoclouds. They buy GPUs from NVIDIA and then rent it back out to the hyperscalers. Where do they get money for the GPUs? Excellent question. Turns out they get the money from NVIDIA themselves, along with a bunch of private credit lenders whose loans are backed by the GPU itself. Elon just said all of them might go to zero soon. Anyways, what are you doing later tonight?”

Quote of the day:
“There is nothing which I dread so much as a division of the republic into two great parties, each arranged under its leader, and concerting measures in opposition to each other. This, in my humble apprehension, is to be dreaded as the greatest political evil under our Constitution.”

If someone from Somalia with a fake identity can serve in the United States Congress for years without getting caught, imagine still believing that illegals aren’t voting in U.S. elections.

GLD’s 2.93% drop tracks gold’s sharp selloff to ~$4,020 (3-month lows), driven by stop cascades and funds dumping metal for cash amid the AI/chip stock rout, plus oil spikes fueling higher-rate fears.
Near-term bias leans lower if $4,000 breaks, but liquidity events like this often reverse quickly once forced selling eases. Watch Fed signals and oil next week.

The only solution for curing a spoiled brat is to take their precious things away from them. If they don’t immediately get in line (they won’t), then in this case you deport them. Or you can go strait to the deport part. But then what do you do with all the 2nd and 3rd generation immigrant rioters? What do you do with the brainwashed and radicalized young people native to France? France is screwed.

How hard is it, really, to answer one simple question… who is on your voter rolls and are they allowed to be there? That is the whole ask. For two years the Trump administration has gone to blue states asking for their voter rolls and their welfare rolls so they could be run against the federal non-citizen database, and the answer from those Democrat run states has been no, and when the Justice Department took them to court the judges stepped in and said no too.
Let me explain how stacked this deck is. Eighteen states handed over their files. Twenty six refused. DOJ sued, and in all 26 of those states a federal judge dismissed the case, and then on October 9 a judge in D.C. named Sparkle Sooknanan wrote 78 pages to vacate the whole policy and called it "the federal government's attempt to decide who gets to vote." Read that again… checking whether a noncitizen is sitting on the rolls is now the scandal, and the states hiding the list get treated like the heroes.
Now keep in mind what Stephen Miller is actually saying here. In every blue state you can vote or get welfare just by checking a box. No proof, no cross check, nobody looking, and the moment somebody asks to look, the governors lawyer up and the courts close ranks around them. Why would you fight this hard to keep a list secret if the list was clean? If your rolls were accurate you would be first in line to prove it, you would hand the file over and dare them to find a problem. Nobody hides a clean list.
This is the institutional rot people keep pretending is a conspiracy theory. The same crowd that calls every noncitizen voting case isolated is the crowd making sure nobody can ever measure how isolated it really is… and the judiciary is happy to hold the door for them. I have watched this same play run for years now, the people who run the system get to grade their own homework and you get told to sit down, shut up and trust it.
@realDonaldTrump, Mr President, the courts have told you no 26 times. Stop asking permission. Use every lawful tool you have, tie federal election and welfare dollars to clean rolls, and make these states show the American people what they are hiding before November 3.
Pray, Stand, Speak, ACT.
Love,
What all of you good people are thinking

En France, on a inventé le Concorde.
En 1969, il décollait et atteignait Mach 2 symbole de la grandeur gaullienne, conçu pour défier les Américains.
En 1972, le TGV 001 battait le record mondial à turbine (318 km/h).
En 1981, le TGV électrique reliait Paris à Lyon à 260 km/h. En 2007, il pulvérisait encore le record mondial sur rail : 574,8 km/h.
Dans les années 70, le plan Messmer lançait le plus grand programme nucléaire civil de l’Histoire : 58 réacteurs, jusqu’à 70-80 % de notre électricité, une indépendance énergétique que le monde entier nous enviait.
Dassault, Sud-Aviation, EDF, Framatome, la SNCF : nos ingénieurs étaient les meilleurs. On avait dix à vingt ans d’avance sur presque tout le monde.
Puis 1981, Mitterrand. Nationalisations massives (banques, acier, chimie, électronique, aéronautique). Semaine de 39 heures. Lois Auroux. Charges sociales qui explosent. Syndicats tout-puissants. Fiscalité punitive. Droit du travail rigidifié.
En moins de cinquante ans, le socialisme a transformé un pays d’ingénieurs conquérants en un pays de grèves, de délocalisations et de stagnation relative.
L’industrie est passée d’environ 28 % du PIB à 11 %.
Le Concorde a été abandonné. Notre nucléaire a été presque démantelé pendant des décennies faute de choix politique mortifère.
Ce n’est pas le destin, c’est le prix d’une idéologie qui a préféré redistribuer et réglementer plutôt que construire et innover.
A bon entendeur.

Die Mächte im Hintergrund, die die Geschicke der Welt steuern, setzen keine erfolgreichen und klugen an die Spitze einer Bewegung oder eines Landes.
Es ist kein Zufall, dass ein schwedisches Mädchen, das geistig so eingeschränkt war, dass sie kaum drei Worte herausbrachte, ohne die von einem Zettel abzulesen, die Klimabewegung anführen durfte.
Der Präsident, der die USA anführte, als die Flugzeuge in die Türme flogen, war auch nicht zufällig ein mental eher Unbegabter, den man so einfach zu sinnlosen Wüstenabenteuern überreden konnte.
Und der ukrainische Bettelprinz, der noch vor 10 Jahren ein Clown war, der im Unterschichten-Fernsehen Transenshows gemacht hat und zur Belustigung des Pöbels mit seinem Genital Klavier spielte, sitzt ebenfalls nicht zufällig auf dieser Position.
Wer seine Geschichte kennt, weiß, dass er mit sehr viel Geld und Aufwand explizit dort platziert wurde.
Gibt man bösartigen Menschen eine Machtposition, verfolgen sie ihre Ziele rational und werden schnell unkontrollierbar.
Gibt man den geistig einfachen und den Versagern eine Machtposition, kann man sie steuern, denn sie sind nicht klug genug, eigene Pläne zu entwickeln, und sie wissen, dass sie nur Betrüger sind, die gar nicht auf den Chefsessel gehören.
Szelenski ist aber gerade klug genug, um zu verstehen, dass nach Beendigung des Krieges den Leuten sehr schnell einfallen wird, dass jemand Rechenschaft ablegen muss für die über eine Million Toten.
Sie werden sich auch daran erinnern, wie man ihre Söhne wie Hunde auf der Straße eingefangen hat, um sie an die Front zum Sterben zu schicken.
Dann werden sie einen Verantwortlichen benennen.
Also tut Selenzki alles, damit der Krieg weiterläuft, obwohl er ihn schon fünfmal hätte beenden können. Dafür verheizt er eine ganze Generation.
Denn wenn der Krieg endet, endet vermutlich auch seine Geschichte.
