🚨 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.

I believe fear of China, not politics, will ultimately bring North America back together. As the race for AI, energy, and critical infrastructure accelerates, economic reality will outweigh political disagreements because the United States, Canada, and Mexico are stronger when they work together. Canada has the energy and critical minerals, the United States has the scale and innovation, and Mexico plays a vital role in the North American economy. In the long run, cooperation is not just good policy, it’s an economic necessity.

🇩🇪 "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.

Lambda's Stephen Balaban on why cheap energy is the foundation of everything: "The United States government needs to support the construction of a lot more power. What I mean by the hurdle rate of an economy being tied to the price of energy is that if energy is too expensive, you can't do fundamental things like smelting steel, smelting aluminum, or making concrete. Making concrete is an exceptionally energy-intensive process." "All of these input factors toward building an industrial society are high-energy-intensity activities. And if you raise the cost of energy up too high, it becomes a hurdle rate, meaning it's too steep of a hurdle to overcome, and thus we don't do that in the United States anymore." "If the United States is flirting with industrial policy at all, you have to start with the very basic inputs to that, which is less expensive energy. This is beneficial to every single thing we do, whether you're driving your electric vehicle, air conditioning your home, using AI, or smelting steel." stephen balaban

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.

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.

Germany's self-induced energy crisis has to be studied as a case study in how to destroy a leading industrial nation. After Germany phased out its nuclear power plants, it even blew up the cooling towers in an act of self-sabotage. And now, just as the world is facing its biggest energy security crisis in history, Germany has positioned itself in the worst possible position. Those 2 reactors once supplied Germany with: - ~4% of its electricity annually - Nuclear once accounted for almost 30% of Germany's electricity Today, Germany has among the highest electricity prices in the world and is facing rampant deindustrialization. Chancellor Merz acknowledged that the nuclear phaseout was a mistake but said there is nothing to do about it.

VON DER LEYEN’S WORDS AND THE REALITY 🇷🇺 Ursula von der Leyen did admit that rejecting Russian gas was Europe’s strategic blunder. Seems that GREEN ENERGY is indeed ZERO ENERGY ! In March 2026 she said that: returning to Russian fossil fuels would be a “strategic blunder.” Now we see the fact that discarding Russian fuel has destroyed the Economic industrial powerbase of Europe. The record is clear. Yet the deeper truth remains unchanged. Europe’s decision to cut itself off from reliable Russian energy, driven by green ideology and political posturing, has extracted a heavy price. Putin saw it coming. Europe is living the consequences. 🇷🇺 PUTIN LAUGHED IN 2010 — AND HE WAS RIGHT 🇷🇺 In Berlin in 2010 Vladimir Putin looked European leaders in the eye and mocked their energy fantasies. He asked how they planned to heat their homes if they rejected gas and nuclear. “From firewood?” he asked. “Even for firewood you will need to go to Siberia.” They smiled. They lectured. They continued dismantling reliable power and betting everything on intermittent renewables and moral superiority. SIXteen years later the joke is no longer funny. The Dutch face freezing winters and soaring bills. Factories across the continent are packing up and leaving for places where energy is still treated as an industrial input instead of a political sermon. The man they dismissed as a relic is the one who correctly described the physics of the situation. GREEN IDEOLOGY BANKRUPTED A CONTINENT 🇷🇺 Europe did not lose cheap Russian pipeline gas by accident. It chose to reject it. It chose sanctions, moral grandstanding, and the Green Deal over long-term contracts and industrial survival. The result is written in the flight of energy-intensive industry, the shuttered chemical plants, the empty steel mills, and the households choosing between heating and eating. Russian gas was abundant, pipeline-delivered, and priced for mutual benefit. Europe replaced it with expensive LNG that arrives by ship from distant continents, subject to every geopolitical gust and every Middle East flare-up. When prices spike, Brussels discovers that “homegrown renewables” cannot keep factories running when the wind drops. The ideology that promised clean prosperity delivered expensive decline. DUTCH FREEZE WHILE FACTORIES FLEE 🇷🇺 Look at the Netherlands. Once a prosperous industrial hub, it now watches manufacturing capacity migrate. Energy costs that once underpinned competitive industry now act as a tax on survival. The same pattern repeats from Germany’s chemical heartland to Italy’s industrial north. Capital and jobs do not care about Brussels press conferences. They follow affordable electrons and molecules. Putin did not force Europe to close nuclear plants. He did not force Germany to shut its last reactors. He did not force the continent to treat reliable baseload power as a moral failing. Europe did that to itself while lecturing the world about climate virtue. The cold houses and fleeing factories are the receipt. THE PRICE OF IDEOLOGY OVER REALITY 🇷🇺 Every time prices surge, the same voices insist the solution is more of the same: more wind, more solar, more targets, more independence from the very supplier that once kept the lights on at a fraction of the cost. They call it strategy. Putin called it madness years ago. The factories closing and the Dutch families turning down the thermostat are the proof. Truth does not require permission from the European Commission. Physics does not negotiate with green ideology. Europe rejected the energy that worked, embraced the energy that does not, and now pays the price in deindustrialization and cold. Putin warned them. They laughed. The continent is no longer laughing. 🇷🇺 is !

While the UN hails China's so-called "climate leadership," Beijing is busy building 800 new coal power plants, on top of the almost 3,300 already operating, locking in cheap and reliable power for decades. Europe did the opposite. Now it's collapsing. A wind drought just cost Danish energy giant Ørsted $300 million. Laughably, politicians blamed "climate change" for the lack of wind, the perfect circular lie of the Net Zero cult. With coal and nuclear gone, Germany's industry is imploding. Steel output is down 25% since 2018. Energy prices are the highest in the world. Factories are fleeing the country. The "green transition" has gutted Europe's competitive core. What's left is an economy running on subsidies, fantasy and debt. A corrupt continent dismantled by its own bogus ideology, and one all too eagerly lapping up the lies told by China.

#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."

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

"There is no such thing as renewable energy," says geologist and energy expert Scott Tinker. Sunlight and wind are continuously replenished. Solar panels, wind turbines, and batteries are not - they require mining, vast quantities of materials, manufacturing, land, backup power, and eventual replacement. Tinker is not anti-wind or anti-solar. His point is that low-density intermittent energy cannot simply replace the dense, dispatchable power modern civilization depends on. When the sun sets or the wind drops, electricity still has to come from storage, gas, nuclear, or some other firm source. And despite decades of "energy transition" (and the trillions spent), fossil fuels still provide 86% of global primary energy. The real transition, Tinker argues, will come through increasingly dense, reliable, and cleaner energy: top of the list being natural gas and nuclear. Affordable energy creates prosperity. Policy should follow physics.

"There is no such thing as renewable energy," says geologist and energy expert Scott Tinker. Sunlight and wind are continuously replenished. Solar panels, wind turbines, and batteries are not - they require mining, vast quantities of materials, manufacturing, land, backup power, and eventual replacement. Tinker is not anti-wind or anti-solar. His point is that low-density intermittent energy cannot simply replace the dense, dispatchable power modern civilization depends on. When the sun sets or the wind drops, electricity still has to come from storage, gas, nuclear, or some other firm source.

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 ⚡️🛢️🇺🇸

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.
