When former TC Energy pipeline exec Dennis McConaghy talks, listen Going south? "Yes, because that's a fundamental trade off, perhaps of less diversity in markets, less potential higher premiums, but greater feasibility of getting the pipeline built as quickly as possible." "I think obviously one of the big advantages... of going to Kitimat or Prince Rupert is that you can get larger tankers into those ports than into the Burrard Inlet." "And so there's a greater, I think, fundamental efficiency if you can get a project built through B.C. to attempt to get to the essentially Kitimat, which is my view would be the preferred course." "Or you simply go south and have a more incremental approach to seizing this value by taking the opportunity to integrate with U.S. systems on the U.S. side."show more

Former TC Energy pipeline exec Dennis McConaghy on a possible KeystoneXL revival "Well, my first concern about this Canadian government is how they deal with two outstanding issues in the MoU." "Open ended carbon taxes on industrial emissions and dates for decarbonizing any incremental oil production out of Canada." "Those are basic showstoppers." "So people can talk a lot about pipelines and pipeline alternatives, but if you don't have any incremental production to fill the pipeline, it's the moot point." "So there's a lot of very dramatic bargaining ahead."

Cochrane asks Ford "Do you think by the end of the day Team Canada will include a bitumen pipeline to the British Columbia coast through northern B.C?" Ford "So we want to make sure we diversify our trade around the world rather than relying on one person." "I say one person instead of one country because I know a lot of Americans don't feel the same way as President Trump does" "So I'm confident that Premier Eby and the Prime Minister will work things out and hopefully we get it out west because we can get it over to the Asian market as quickly as possible." Doug Ford David Eby

James Moore "I think if Premier Eby had to do it over again, he would tighten his message a little bit." "It doesn't make a lot of sense to invest, you know, literally billions of dollars to build a pipeline from the oil sands in Alberta across the breadth of British Columbia to the, to the west coast of British Columbia and to leave that energy, those energy resources sitting on the dock." "Well, kind of the point of building a pipeline is to get the resources to markets and you do that by tanker " James Moore

Danielle Smith "What I would say is you have to, if you have to be very careful not to put things on the table that you're not prepared to do." "And I'm going to try to prevent Canada from making a very dumb decision of putting energy on the table because line five goes through Michigan." "So I would just say that it may sound tough to say those kind of things, but if you cannot do it practically and you're not prepared to live with the consequences of doing it, don't threaten it." "But I would say it's far more constructive to go into negotiations saying, hey, we want a deal, we want to maintain this really strong trade relationship and let's see if we can both get a win out of it. That's, that's my approach, and I think that's the Prime Minister's approach." Danielle Smith (video didn't load with previous post)

Leopold explains his approach to not blowing up (2024) "Obviously, not blowing up is task number one and two or whatever. I think this investment firm is going to just be betting on AGI and superintelligence before the decade is out, making the bets you would make if you took that seriously." "I think if that's wrong, the firm is not going to do that well." "The thing you have to be able to resist is, you know, one or a couple or a few individual calls. It's like AI stagnates for a year because of the data wall, or you got the call wrong on when revenue would go up." "You have to get timing right. I do think in general that the sequence of bets on the way to AGI is actually pretty critical, and something people underrate."

Former TC pipeline exec Dennis McConaghy with Rosie "Well, remember, the first investment decision that really has to come about is being satisfied that our removal of emission caps isn't nullified by an impossibly high carbon price applied to any of the emissions applied." "So to the specifics, like whatever this workaround on an industrial carbon price, it can't be so high as to be punitive." "...if you're going to impose CCS or decarbonization on incremental production, that again begs the question of it won't be competitive and Canada will lose this opportunity."

Smith "And I've also equally said to the Prime Minister as well as publicly that if we have to get taxpayer dollars at the federal level to fund yet another pipeline, then that is a failure of the process." "What we're trying to do is get an investment climate where private sector partners will want to come forward." "And I think if we have a commitment from the federal government on the two year time frame, a pathway to yes and a genuine commitment to get there in conjunction with the Pathways project, I feel confident that either one proponent or a consortium would come forward."

Once again, when former TC exec, Dennis McConaghy, talks... listen! "If this pipe is able to attract legitimate oil producers who are willing to commit to put oil in this pipeline for the long term, then we're really going to have a foundation that can actually realize this project." "That wasn't evident on Thursday night and there are still concerns about whether that will be achieved given the issues related to the competitiveness of that production in the face of existing Canadian carbon taxes and the whole issue of imposing decarbonization mandates that is the Pathways Project" "So I am confident that if this project is able to attract long term commitments of supply from those five major oil sands producers, if that is achieved, then the federal government, or the Alberta government for that matter, will be able to auction off the interest in this project to private sector elements." "If that's put in place, then I'm confident that private sector elements will be able to bid for these positions and the federal government and the Alberta government won't have to be the residual owners of it."

VP VANCE PREDICTED: PEOPLE ARE GOING TO GET ANGRY, AND RIGHTFULLY SO "This stuff we can and we should prosecute, and I'm just telling you, this is going to be a real problem, and the people are going to get really pissed at Senate Republicans if we don't have the U.S. attorneys on the ground to actually achieve justice. People are going to get angry, and rightfully so." If you want justice, you've got to empower the President of the United States to actually appoint the officers of justice all over the country. The Democrats are stalling that, and we're going to wake up in a couple of years, if we don't have more U.S. attorneys approved, if we don't have more judges approved, we're going to wake up in a couple of years and realize that we've done a lot of great work at the Trump administration, but justice is not being meted out as it should be because we don't have the people on the ground. That is a big problem, and I know that's somewhat unrelated to Arctic Frost, but it actually is related to Arctic Frost, because you cannot get the justice for the people who are targeted by the Biden administration unless we've got good people, especially in these U.S. attorneys offices, and that's something we've got to pay attention to over the next year.

What's gonna happen to space stocks when SpaceX IPOs? "It's going to start to separate the real space companies from the ones that have just kind of labeled themselves as space companies [...] And I think what's going to happen is the good companies are going to get dragged up by SpaceX. And I think the less quality names are going to get basically put into obscurity. And so you're going to have a world of haves and have nots, I think, which is going to make investors' lives more challenging. They have to do more work. And I think they're going have to be much more discriminating because what I've seen is a complete or almost complete lack of any discrimination amongst investors across the names that have currently been in space." — Adam Spice, CFO of $RKLB

Catherine Austin Fitts on "breakthrough" tech funded by taxpayers' "missing money" "they've built an awful lot of infrastructure... ships in the sky... stuff going on underground... we can run cars from water... [and] if they can get the price of graphene down... what you can do with materials is unbelievable" This clip of Fitts, a former Assistant Secretary of Housing and Urban Development, investment banker, and founder of the Solari Report (The Solari Report | Catherine Austin Fitts), is taken from a discussion with Versan Aljarrah (Versan | Black Swan Capitalist), the founder of Black Swan Capitalist, posted to YouTube on July 2, 2026. ---------------Partial transcription of clip--------------- "I've tried to trace where the money theoretically could go, sort of as a conceptual matter, but I think they've built an awful lot of infrastructure which is not something we don't see when we walk around— "So, much more impressive ships in the sky, much more stuff going on underground... And especially because we're, as a society, we're using 50- and 100- year-old legacy technology. "And we know, I mean, I just know I'm in the Netherlands because my partners here I first met in 2012 because they led the breakthrough energy conferences in, in, in the Netherlands and the US, as well as the secret space program. "Because a lot of the breakthrough energy is associated with the sort of the space programs. And if you just look at the technology we've had for over 100 years to dramatically reduce the price of energy, we know this technology works. We know we can run cars from water. "We know all of this stuff is feasible. And the question is, when is it going to be allowed and integrated into the regular economy? Your guess is as good as mine, but somebody's got it. "So when the head of Lockheed Skunk Works said in 1996, we now have the technology to take ET home— That tech, I, I'm taking him for his word, I think he was telling the truth, but I don't think we've— It was, I don't know if you saw this Lockheed CEO the other day sometime in the last year on a conference call with investors was talking about the incredible technology they, they've developed, they've just developed that he can't talk about....

“‘Red Rain’ is one of my favourite tracks from that record [‘So’]. It’s a good example of a band playing together with a lot of energy and again, I think from Daniel Lanois’ input, there’s a respect for the moment. So many times in studios you see people desperately trying to get the best possible sound, but they let the moment go because they want to get something right or fixed, or they know that this bit can be improved, but the moment is something instinctively that you feel and if you get that great performance everything else will bow to it. And you can fix a lot of things afterwards. But, if you get the best sound but you don’t get the great performance, you have nothing. And it’s so easy to forget that in the studio.” - PG

Kinzinger: He has a fundamental misunderstanding of the role of tariffs. He really believes that the US is going to get very rich from tariffs. And this is going to close the budget deficit. That's not the reality. Tariffs should be used if you're fighting real unfair trade practices, but not against your friends, and not because you think you can raise money with it

Boom! "If we had built Northern Gateway, if we built Keystone and we built Energy east, we'd have 2.5 million barrels more per day of production, which is $55 billion a year worth of GDP value, which is worth $17 billion to my government alone and about an equal amount to the federal government. This is not just an ideological argument." "It's not just a minor disagreement." "Oil is by far the most valuable export for Canada." "Any of the projects that you have that you will see on the ultimate list, I will tell you that a bitumen pipeline will be by far the greatest benefit to all of Canada." "There's $9 trillion worth of value in discoverable and achievable reserves right now." "And so why would you leave that in the ground?" Danielle Smith

"Existing AI models right now are testing around the 130-140 [IQ] level, which means they're going to get to the 160 level." "Would the world be better off or worse off with more or fewer Einsteins?

We now spend more on interest just to service the debt than we do on national defense, and those numbers are going to escalate as some of these bonds have to be refinance in the future. I'm proud to be a Republican. This is not a Democrat problem, or this is a bipartisan debt problem. So Florida has obviously certified this. 28 States in total have. We've got a couple more that we think will happen relatively soon. Kentucky hopefully would be one of those. The reason I'm here is because I don't think Congress is going to fix itself. I think the incentives up there are such that we're likely to continue more of the same. There's a culture that's developed. There's a muscle memory that's developed. And you can't just say elect new people and all of a sudden they're going to fix it because here's the deal. Even if somehow we did elect new people and they did fix it, the next Congress can come in and undo it. And so unless you have changes, permanent constitutional changes to the incentive structure in Congress, you are not going to solve this problem. And the question is, how much more can you go into debt before we have a major debt crisis? I mean, at some point. Reality is going to bite, and I think the U.S. has been able to get away with this longer just because we're the best bet in town. Whatever problems we have, a lot of these other countries have other problems. But so why would you guys want to be involved at the state level? Because that's what our founding fathers envision. This is America's 250th anniversary of independence, and obviously it took them a decade or so to fashion a Constitution. But when they created the Constitution, they believed that the states were the most important units of government. They were creating a federal government, but it was limited and enumerated to certain tasks. There were local governments created by the state governments, but ultimately was the states that created the federal government and that ratified the Constitution. So they saw the states having a very, very important role. What about with constitutional amendments? Well, I think we just think muscle memory is, well, yeah, Congress proposes these amendments. You need two thirds of each house. They can propose it, and then it goes to the states for ratification. That's one way to propose it. The other way to propose it is via the states with Article V, and you have two thirds of the state certified. A proposal can be fashioned, and then it can go to the states for ratification. The founders knew that Congress could be the problem. So they obviously wanted to provide a mechanism for we, the people working through our states to be able to institute the reforms that would be necessary. We have the power to do it in our states. Many states have stepped up, and obviously I think Kentucky would be a great, great candidate to join the movement to prevent Congress from bankrupting this country. And if we can do that, that'll be one of the best things these states have ever done.”

Jeff Bezos: I think most of the world recognize that we should go to the Moon first. We'll go to Mars and we'll do all the other things. But the Moon is the first best step and there are many reasons for that. But it's kind of a gift. It's so near Earth. We can get there in three and a half days. We can return in three and a half days. You can go anytime you want. You don't have to wait for the planetary alignment to be just right. And you can only go to Mars every two years or so. And so there are a lot of advantages to the Moon. The Moon’s gravity well is much lower than Earth’s, so when you get materials from the Moon, you can lift them off the Moon using about 28 times less energy per kilogram than is needed to lift something off Earth.
