🚨 ENERGY POLICY OR IDEOLOGY? Germany shut down its nuclear plants. At the same time: France is building more. China is expanding capacity at scale. The United States is investing in next-generation reactors. Meanwhile German households and industry face some of the highest energy costs in the developed world....

🚨 FRANCE TURNS AGAINST BRUSSELS A major shift is happening in France. French media figures and political voices are now openly questioning the entire EU energy system — and calling for a return to national control. The arguments are becoming increasingly direct: • Leave the EU energy market • End sanctions on Russia • Restore cheap Russian gas supplies • Expand nuclear power • Stop reliance on costly wind infrastructure • Break Brussels control over French energy policy Florian Philippot says France once had one of the cheapest and most reliable electricity systems in the world through EDF and nuclear power — before EU “liberalisation” dismantled it. Now critics argue France is paying more for energy, importing expensive foreign gas, and losing sovereignty over its own strategic decisions. The key line: “If tomorrow I was at the head of France, I would make sure our country leaves the European Union.” This is no longer fringe rhetoric. The anti-Brussels backlash is moving into mainstream political debate — driven by soaring energy costs, sanctions fatigue, industrial pressure, and growing anger over national sovereignty. Europe’s political fault lines are widening. Florian Philippot

🚨🇩🇪 Meanwhile in Germany “This is how the transition to net zero in Germany is going after they started by destroying their nuclear power plants” “We just don’t have enough energy generation capacity” - Chancellor Merz This didn’t happen by accident, as Germany destroyed all their nuclear power and cold powered pits, now their economy is collapsing, people can’t afford energy, and manufacturing and industry are flying the country or going bankrupt. All by design.

🇩🇪 "Nuclear power plants are being built in 🇫🇷France, in 🇨🇳China, in the 🇺🇸US — everywhere around us. Only Germany blows them up. And that despite already having the highest energy prices. What is that, if not pure ideology, stupidity, or deliberate sabotage?" — German AfD Leader, Alice Weidel *Germany's current electricity prices remaining among the highest in Europe. Chancellor, Merz has labeled the total nuclear phase-out a "serious strategic mistake". He has already proposed a nuclear energy revival, which includes the restart of the last 3 reactors shut down in 2023 & investing in new-generation nuclear technology, such as Small Modular Reactors (SMRs)

🚨EUROPE’S INDUSTRIAL CRISIS IS NOW OUT IN THE OPEN Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orbán has revealed that senior European industry leaders — including Mercedes-Benz — are warning Brussels directly: High energy costs are threatening the future of Europe’s manufacturing base. This is not political rhetoric. This is industrial reality. If affordable energy cannot be secured, Europe risks: • Factory closures • Job losses • Economic decline • Strategic dependence on foreign powers Hungary is fighting to keep energy affordable for both households and industry — while much of Western Europe continues policies that drive costs higher. The question is no longer theoretical. Can Europe survive its own energy strategy? Orbán Viktor Zoltan Kovacs

Germany has just erased another symbol of its industrial strength. The demolition of the Gundremmingen cooling towers marks not only the end of a nuclear facility but the continued dismantling of Germany’s economic backbone. What began under the red-green coalition two decades ago, and was later accelerated by Angela Merkel’s panic-driven phaseout, is now being completed under Friedrich Merz. The same politicians who once promised “sustainability” are now presiding over energy dependence, deindustrialization, and the collapse of what was once Europe’s most competitive economy. Nuclear power was not Germany’s problem. It was its greatest asset: clean, efficient, and far cheaper than imported gas or unstable renewables. Yet ideological blindness turned success into guilt. The country that once built the best reactors in the world now imports nuclear energy from France and coal-based electricity from Poland. The political class calls this progress while businesses shut down and energy-intensive industries relocate abroad. Under the Merz administration, the absurdity has reached its final stage. While AI data centers, chip fabs, and future manufacturing all demand enormous amounts of reliable power, Germany is blowing up the very plants that could have supplied it. Instead of securing affordable electricity for innovation, Berlin is subsidizing wind turbines that stand still half the year and gas plants that rely on foreign regimes. This is not strategy; it is surrender disguised as virtue. The destruction of Gundremmingen is not about energy policy. It is about the decline of rational governance. Germany’s leaders are sacrificing economic sovereignty for ideology, while pretending it is moral necessity. The result is predictable: higher costs, weaker industry, and growing dependence on those who still value energy realism. What fell today in Bavaria were not cooling towers, but the last remnants of Germany’s common sense.

German AfD Leader Alice Weidel: German companies are no longer competitive because costs are too high and bureaucracy is excessive. Energy prices in Germany are the highest in the world. And yet they simply continue on this path, because of Angela Merkel’s disastrous energy transition. They just keep going with this green policy. The CDU is a party that likes to copy from the AfD program, promises the opposite of what it ultimately implements, and then does exactly the reverse. And the sin last year, in October, was that the CSU in Bavaria blew up the Isar 2 nuclear power plant in Ohu near Essenbach, while at the same time having the audacity to talk about returning to nuclear energy. From morning until night, they do nothing but lie. And we, ladies and gentlemen, will put an end to that, because we make policy for you.

Australia is one of the largest energy exporters on Earth. Yet Australians pay some of the highest gas and electricity prices in the developed world and we are screwed when TSHTF 💩 The system is designed this way. Time for an Australia First energy policy: • Gas for Australians first • Royalties paid to Australians • Domestic fuel refineries restarted • Strategic oil reserves using our own fields • Coal used to guarantee reliable power A country that exports energy to the world should never struggle to power its own homes. ☠️And you can shove your batteries and solar panels where the sun dosent shine 🌞 The problem is Canberra. #AustraliaFirst

“For Africa, energy is not simply a development issue. It is the foundation of industrial growth, and competitiveness. At the centre of this endeavour, is the question of investment. Too often, investors hesitate because they perceive many risks in Africa. We must work to strengthen regulation, ensure consistency and accountability, in order to build confidence and attract long-term capital.” President Kagame | Opening of the 2nd Nuclear Energy Innovation Summit for Africa #NEISA2026

Germany CHOSE industrial decline. For years, Berlin’s elites waged war on their own energy base. >accelerated the nuclear phase-out, even as they grew addicted to cheap Russian gas >rammed through the “Energiewende”, intermittent renewables sold as salvation while ignoring the need for reliable baseload power >piled on crushing regulation, taxes, and labor costs that made German industry the most expensive place to produce in the developed world Then 2022 arrived. The gas tap got turned off, energy prices exploded, and the house of cards collapsed. And the result is industrial production is now 24% below its long term trend. The auto sector alone lost 50,000 jobs in a single year. 41% of companies are planning further cuts. Credit insurers warn of up to 30,000 insolvencies ahead. This is the predictable consequence of a policy regime that deliberately weakened the foundations of German strength built on cheap, reliable energy and a competitive cost structure. And then they acted shocked when the structure couldn’t survive a shock. They made Germany vulnerable and the decline almost inevitable. The same ideological blindness is spreading. Pay attention.

#WATCH | Delhi: Adani Group Chairman Gautam Adani says, "What has become even more obvious from the recent Middle East conflict and targeted attacks on infrastructure is that energy security and digital security are no longer independent dimensions. They are now the twin foundations of national power. And it is increasingly evident that the country that controls its energy will drive its industrial future. The country that controls its compute will drive its intelligence future, and the country that controls both will shape the century ahead. This is the new geometry of power. If 1947 was about our political freedom, true independence in the 21st century will mean owning the energy that lights our homes and the intelligence that guides our minds. This is not a theory. The two largest economies in the world, the United States and China, have understood this deeply. Their systems may be different. Their politics may be different. Their institutions may be different. But their strategic objectives are the same. No nation can call itself truly self-reliant if it depends on others for the energy that powers its economy or the intelligence that shapes its destiny."

❗️🇷🇺🇹🇷 Russia is providing $9 billion in financing for Turkey’s first nuclear power plant, Akkuyu Nuclear Power Plant, which is being built by Rosatom. The facility, located on Turkey’s Mediterranean coast, is expected to begin operations in 2026, representing a major milestone in Turkey’s long-term energy strategy. Key points: •Fully financed and constructed by Russia under a build-own-operate model •Four VVER-1200 reactors planned •Designed to cover up to ~10% of Turkey’s electricity demand once fully operational •Strengthens long-term energy ties between Turkey and Russia Akkuyu marks Turkey’s entry into nuclear energy and significantly expands its baseload power capacity, while also deepening Ankara–Moscow economic interdependence in the energy sector.

Germany has spent more than $75OB on its failed energiewende. The results are obvious: Germany’s industrial base is collapsing, and last week, the coalition government collapsed at the same moment the country was hit by a wind drought. Germany provides a vivid example of how bad energy policy leads to failing industry, and now, failed government. #germany #energiewende #wind #solar #alternativeenergy #greenenergy #climate #climatechange #climatepolicy

California’s energy crisis is nothing new and it certainly wasn’t an accident. It was self-inflicted by Gavin Newsom’s poor energy policies. We have the highest gas prices in the nation - nearly $2 over the national average - and 55% of the cost per gallon is a direct result of Sacramento’s policies. It’s no wonder Californians are driving to other states to buy gas! Thankfully, while Newsom pushes his failed none-of-the-above energy policy, President Trump is fighting to unleash our domestic energy dominance ⚡️🛢️🇺🇸

A lot of people see China and Russia strengthening ties and immediately think politics or military strategy. In my view, this entire game comes down to one thing, energy. China’s dependence on oil and gas routes is a major vulnerability, and the pressure being placed on Russian energy exports is reshaping global leverage in real time. That’s why I believe the Gulf states and energy security are becoming some of the most important geopolitical assets in the world right now.

HABECK: "THERE IS NO DOUBT" GERMAN NUCLEAR COULD HAVE KEPT RUNNING FOR 15 MORE YEARS This week, German Economy Minister Robert Habeck clarified for Germans that the nuclear plants whose closure he enforced could've kept running, and that closing them was a political, not technical, decision. Although consumer power prices have declined, industrial energy remains more expensive than before the closure of nuclear, the cheapest generators of baseload power in Germany. As German industrial companies continue to place new factories outside of the country, several of these nuclear plants sit ready to return to operation. During the worst days of the energy crisis, Habeck and his officials claimed the plants couldn't be continued. International experts, plenty of them here, also incorrectly claimed the plants couldn't keep running. It is helpful to have Habeck's explicit confirmation ahead of the parliamentary committee of inquiry looking into the decision to continue nuclear closures despite the low of Russian pipeline gas, which seriously damaged German industrial competitiveness.

Elon Musk just exposed the most catastrophic energy blindspot in the entire AI arms race. The West is still debating which twigs to burn. China is capturing the sun. Musk: “People just don’t understand how solar is everything. Compared to the sun, all other energy sources are like cavemen throwing some twigs into a fire.” Every natural gas plant. Every nuclear reactor. Every experimental fusion project being debated in Washington right now. Twigs. Musk: “We have a giant free fusion reactor that shows up every day. It’s farcical for us to create little fusion reactors.” And then he gave the most clarifying statistic in the entire energy debate. Musk: “The sun is over 99.8% of all mass in the solar system. Jupiter is around 0.1%. So even if you burnt Jupiter, the energy produced by the sun would still round up to 100%.” Musk: “And then if you teleported three more Jupiters into our solar system and burnt them too, it would still round up.” The sun is not an energy source. It is the only energy source. Everything else is rounding error. China already knows this. While American tech executives beg for permits to build natural gas plants, China crossed 1,000 gigawatts of installed solar capacity in 2025. More than the rest of the world combined. They are not holding summits about it. They are not commissioning reports about it. They are building it. Harvesting the free fusion reactor that arrives every morning at zero cost and feeding it directly into their AI data centers. The AI race is not an algorithm race. It is an electro-industrial race. You cannot build superintelligence without infinite compute. You cannot have infinite compute without infinite energy. And right now, the United States is losing the energy war while holding committee meetings about which twigs to burn next. China built the energy-compute flywheel. Cheap, scalable, infinite solar power feeding AI models at a fraction of the cost. Compounding every single day. The nation that captures the sun’s output will hold a permanent monopoly on global intelligence. The nation that doesn’t will spend the next decade trying to understand how it lost. Everyone else gets left holding the twigs.

🚨 EUROPE JUST GOT THE MESSAGE — AND IT’S NOT A GOOD ONE President Trump has made it clear: America is finishing its objective… and then stepping back. No more world policing. No more automatic protection. No more guarantees. His words matter: “The Strait… that’s not for us. That’ll be for France. That’ll be for whoever’s using it.” Read between the lines. This is a strategic shift. The United States is signalling: We secured our interests We achieved our objective You are now responsible for yours For Europe — this is a wake-up call. Because for decades: Security was outsourced Energy vulnerability was ignored Military strength was allowed to decline Now reality is returning. Fast. If America steps back: Who protects critical trade routes? Who secures energy supply lines? Who responds when escalation happens again? Europe is exposed. And it has been left exposed by its own leadership. This is not just about geopolitics. This is about consequence. Weak energy policy. Weak defence policy. Weak leadership. All converging at the same moment. And now, when the pressure is rising… The safety net may no longer be there. The world is shifting. And Europe is not ready.

Anduril Founder Palmer Luckey on the Future of U.S. Energy: “There are so many things the United States needs to do on the energy front if we’re going to be competitive globally.” “The good news is, it looks like this administration is going to allow nuclear power to come roaring back.” “I think that for things like factories and data centers… they should just have on-premises power generation.” “They should have small nuclear plants, that way they’re not degrading everyone else’s grid.” “The other problem is the grid has become a political vector. In California, most of our energy cost is not the cost of making the energy… it’s all the political taxes that have been placed on top of it.” “Energy generation needs to become like a lathe or a screwdriver… just another tool at your factory that you use to get the job done.”

The number one export of America isn’t energy or technology, it’s the American Dream. At the center of that dream is the entrepreneur. Not greed. Not politics. Financial freedom. Entrepreneurs create over 70% of the jobs in this country, and all we really care about is policy, smart, pro-business policy. That’s why initiatives like the Trump Accounts matter. It’s designed to spark individuals to think long-term, to think independently, and to start building early. I applaud this effort. It’s a great idea and it’s exactly the kind of policy that helps entrepreneurs, families, and future generations across party lines.

A cold winter is exposing Germany's energy choices. Natural gas storage levels are dropping fast. In Bavaria, one major site is just 6% full While nationally, storage has slipped below 38%, a level officially classified as "critical". Household supply is protected, for now, but Germany's industry is not. Energy-intensive factories, particularly in southern regions, face shutdown risk. Renewables are not covering the gap. Low wind and solar output has pushed fossil fuels back to supplying the majority of Germany's electricity, with retired coal plants called back into action to save the country from freezing to a halt. This is what happens when ideology replaces energy security.
