I am a supporter of BJP. But seeing all aggressive postings in favour of #Ethanol is only misleading the people. They knows very well what they are hiding and why? Are the poor farmers are getting benefitted from Ethanol? Its only the manufacturers are the real beneficiaries.

👍🏽 Every country uses Ethanol mixing as solution to alternative fuel and cost reduction Only Indians can be easily fooled by opposition. Because rage and anger sells and it has no boundary Opposition wants to burn the country down but real citizens won't let any of that happen

Don't import ethanol use only farmers grains and use those e20 in government vehicle and political vehicle and let public choose what they want pure or e20 petrol like they have options in election to vote to whom they one is against farmers.

Punjab Maize Farmers: "Ethanol demand saved us from low crop prices and debt, please don't stop E20!" Arvind Kejriwal: "Hold my protest banner!" 🚶‍♂️🚩 Imagining you stand with farmers while trying to kill the very policy boosting maize prices is peak political hypocrisy! 😭

India's mobility revolution has entered a new chapter. 🇮🇳 Today, along with Shri Nitin Gadkari Ji, we witnessed the launch of Hero MotoCorp's Splendor+ and HF Deluxe Flex Fuel motorcycles, capable of running on ethanol blends from E20 to E85. This is far more than the launch of a new vehicle. It is the convergence of India's energy security mission, our commitment to clean mobility, and our resolve to build an #AatmaNirbharBharat. Over 300 million two-wheelers ply on Indian roads today. Imagine the impact when even a fraction of them begin running on fuel produced from Indian farms rather than imported crude oil. A decade ago, ethanol blending in India stood at just 1.5%. Today, India has achieved 20% ethanol blending, one of the fastest energy transitions anywhere in the world. The benefits are immense. ✅ Reduced dependence on imported oil ✅ Lower foreign exchange outgo ✅ Cleaner transportation ✅ Additional income opportunities for our farmers Every litre of ethanol blended into fuel reduces India's import burden and strengthens our energy independence. Our farmers are no longer only Annadatas. They are increasingly becoming Urjadatas, contributing directly to India's energy future. The scale of this opportunity is extraordinary. Even if flex-fuel vehicles account for just 1% of annual petrol vehicle sales, they can generate demand for nearly 4 crore litres of ethanol every year, resulting in payments of around ₹266 crore to distilleries, savings of approximately ₹195 crore in foreign exchange, and direct economic benefits of nearly ₹160 crore flowing to our farmers. Having witnessed Brazil's successful flex-fuel journey firsthand, I have seen how transformative this technology can be for an entire nation. Today, India begins writing its own success story. A future where Indian vehicles are powered by Indian innovation, Indian farmers, and Indian energy. The road ahead is cleaner. The road ahead is greener. The road ahead is more self-reliant. And that journey has begun.

For BSNL, our government has provided three revival packages totalling ₹3.22 lakh crore. We have dealt with the burden of oil bonds, addressed the “Fragile Five” economy, and undertaken bank restructuring and recapitalization. These were not small amounts but those of ₹3 lakh crore - ₹4 lakh crore, and now even fertiliser subsidies. Wherever there were weaknesses in the economy, they were left unaddressed earlier, and we are now paying for all of it. Yet, we are being questioned about GDP growth and fiscal deficit. The reality is that we are clearing the liabilities left behind. On spectrum allocation, after our government came to power, spectrum in bands such as 700 MHz, 800 MHz, 1800 MHz, 2100 MHz, 2500 MHz and 3300 MHz has been provided to BSNL at auction-determined prices for 4G and 5G services. On BSNL, I must respectfully say that every criticism made against it is incorrect. If anything, BSNL was pushed into a critical condition earlier. It was in the ICU, and we have revived it and brought it back on track. The Union Cabinet has approved revival packages for BSNL. The capital infusion between 2022 and 2023 stands at ₹2.26 lakh crore. This includes spectrum allocation, capital expenditure on infrastructure, AGR dues, and restructuring of the PSU. The Make in India mandate for BSNL is a strength, not a restriction. There is no restriction on BSNL. In fact, under the Atmanirbhar Bharat initiative, BSNL has placed an order for 1 lakh indigenously developed 4G sites for pan-India deployment. As of 28th February 2026, 97,906 sites have been installed with 4G equipment, out of which 96,103 are already operational. Additionally, the BharatNet Programme is strengthening BSNL further. An amount of ₹1.39 lakh crore has been approved to extend optical fibre connectivity to all villages across the country. - Smt Nirmala Sitharaman in Rajya Sabha

THE E20 DEBATE: FACTS VS HYPOCRISY. HERE'S AN UNDENIABLE FACT: The E20 programme did not begin under the Modi government. Ethanol blending was approved years earlier, during the UPA. The difference is in execution. Blending remained stuck at roughly 1–1.5% for years before accelerating significantly under the NDA. So, let's first get the politics out of the way. If ethanol blending was acceptable in principle then, why is it suddenly portrayed as anti-people now? Now, let's look at the arguments being presented by critics: CRITICS ARGUMENT 1: E20 FUEL IS BEING PUSHED BY NDA TO KEEP SUGAR CANE FARMERS HAPPY. There's no doubt Ethanol is creating an additional income stream for sugarcane farmers. But governments have always handed out subsidies or incentives to farmers. + MSP exists for 23 crops. Sugar cane farmers get SAP or State Advised Price. + Fertiliser subsidies. + Cheap or free electricity. + Irrigation subsidies. + Procurement policies. If these benefits to farmers are accepted as legitimate public policy, why is E20 policy being targeted in isolation for market distortion? CRITICS ARGUMENT 2: ETHANOL PRODUCTION IS WATER CONSUMING. Yes, sugarcane consumes a great deal of water. But so do + Paddy cultivators. Just look at the tumbling water tables in Punjab, Haryana. + AI and data centers. + Semiconductor manufacturing. + Steel and cement production. The question is not whether something uses water, but whether the benefits justify the costs. Again why are critics holding E20 alone to a test that they don't set for others? CRITICS ARGUMENT 3: THE GOVERNMENT SHOULD NOT MAKE E20 MANDATORY. LEAVE IT TO CHOICE. We're in a democracy and choice matters. But governments routinely make decisions that we, the people have no choice but to accept. + Taxation rates + Emission norms. + Fuel quality standards. + Safety regulations. + Identity Proof. These are often choices imposed to achieve broader national goals. Shouldn't E20 should be judged in the same way? Here's how E20 usage serves NATIONAL INTEREST: + India imports 85–90% of its crude oil. E20 seeks to address that by replacing up to 20% of petrol volume with domestically produced ethanol, helping diversify the fuel mix and reducing import costs. + With E20 NDA estimates saving Rs 1 lakh crore in foreign-exchange. CRITICS ARGUMENT 4: COST OF CAR ENGINE WEAR AND TEAR, MILEAGE INEFFICIENCY OUTWEIGHS BENEFITS. It is true that Ethanol has about 34% less energy per litre than petrol. But because E20 contains only 20% ethanol, the overall energy content of the fuel falls by roughly 4%–7%. So at 5% a car that gives 20 km/L on pure petrol will give 19km/L. But usage also improves air quality. Which increases longevity in humans and lowers healthcare costs over time. That is s fair trade-off. CONCLUSION: Every policy is a trade off. E20 isn't perfect. But if agricultural subsidies, procurement, irrigation policy and fuel regulations are accepted as legitimate public policy, then judge ethanol using the same yardstick.

#Annamalai "We are still in a mayakka nilai maatram. When intellectual politics actually happens, people will focus on real metrics, numbers & accountability. Probably, you will start asking questions like: 'When you came to power, how many Primary Health Centers (PHCs) were there in rural areas & in these five years, how many PHCs have you improved? How much rural development have you actually done? How many X-ray machines have you brought in?' But right now, we are not in that stage of politics; we are still in that phony politics. A Chief Minister can go & spend ₹7 crore just to open the Mettur Dam water gates. Then, he can give his Christian Dior sunglasses to an old lady who happens to be there, and the entire media will rave, 'Oh, look! He gave away ₹50,000 sunglasses! See what a great man he is!'But nobody talks about the ₹6.5 crore spent just on setting up the event. That is where I am questioning it. I don't mind someone giving away sunglasses. I don't mind that at all. I am only asking: why do you want to spend ₹6.5 crore just to open a gate when the state is already under ₹10.5 lakh crore of debt?The way you live is not my criticism. My question is, why do you need to do this? In this day and age, you can easily do a video conference. You can sit in your office and flip a switch. You could ask 100 farmers to be at the dam, let those 100 farmers open it together, and you can just activate it remotely.Instead, how do you go and open it? You take a private jet from Chennai and land it in Salem. One hour of a private jet costs about ₹7 lakh, so the round trip alone costs around ₹15 lakh. Spending ₹6.5 crore for the entire event—that is not real politics. I want people to question this kind of politics. But right now, politicians have become very phony in the way they act and talk. It is a valid question, but we are not yet at the stage where the public openly asks these kinds of questions." -K.Annamalai anna TVK Vijay CMOTamilNadu

The Media Isn’t Really Talking About This, But Farmers in Europe Are Revolting What unfolded in Brussels wasn’t random or emotional noise. It was pressure applied at exactly the moment it mattered. Farmers showed up with tractors as EU leaders met to decide the fate of the Mercosur agreement, and only after streets were blocked and police clashed with protesters did the signing get pushed into January. That alone tells you this wasn’t just about procedure. It was about leverage on who has it, and who doesn’t. Why Farmers See a Pattern, Not a Policy Error From the farm gate, this deal doesn’t land in isolation. It lands after years of rising costs, tighter environmental rules, higher fuel and fertilizer prices, and thinner margins. Now layer on import quotas for beef, poultry, sugar, ethanol, and rice products where European farmers already operate on razor thin economics. Officials talk about caps and safeguards, but farmers know how markets work where prices move at the margin, and once cheaper supply enters, expectations reset quickly. That’s why the protests felt inevitable. Delay the signing to show you’re listening, add inspections and reciprocity language, then try again once attention fades. Over time, the structure still shifts. What Brussels Is Optimizing For Zoom out and the incentives line up. The big winners from Mercosur are Europe’s industrial exporters in autos, machinery, chemicals, pharmaceuticals where tariff savings and market access are meaningful. Agriculture becomes the bargaining chip that makes the rest of the deal work. On a spreadsheet, that trade off looks rational. On a farm, where income depends on prices that can’t absorb another hit, it feels like being volunteered to carry Europe’s geopolitical ambitions. Why This Feels Like More Than Trade This is where farmers’ suspicion hardens. They see strict rules at home paired with wider market access abroad, and a system that steadily favors scale, consolidation, and longer supply chains. Over time, smaller and mid sized farms struggle, land changes hands, and food production becomes more centralized, financialized and easier to manage from the center and harder to resist politically. You don’t need secret meetings for that outcome. You just need aligned incentives where retailers want cheaper supply, governments want lower headline food prices, industry wants market access, and farmers are left with assurances instead of pricing power. My View Farmers aren’t just fighting beef quotas. They’re pushing back against a direction of travel where food sovereignty erodes piece by piece while decisions that shape rural livelihoods are made far away. The delay into January buys time, not trust. Whether the EU recalibrates in a way that genuinely protects farmers or simply returns with better packaging will decide whether this cools off or becomes a lasting political fracture across Europe’s countryside.

Australia was once the richest country per capita in the world. Today, we have the worst poverty I’ve seen in my lifetime—yet we still have abundant resources, farmland, and energy. Successive Liberal and Labor governments have shut down industries that provided breadwinner jobs, strangled farmers with green tape and UN blue tape, and sold out our wealth. Our GDP is growing, yet Australians are getting poorer. Wealth is being transferred to foreign billionaires and their investment funds—BlackRock, Vanguard, State Street—who now control our banks, retailers, telcos, and energy companies. Prices go up, markets are rigged, and everyday Australians are pushed into poverty while executives take multimillion-dollar salaries for compliance. Housing is worse than ever. Rents in Sydney have surged 40% since 2021, and Melbourne and Brisbane aren’t far behind. Over half of low-income renters spend more than 30% of their income on housing. Meanwhile, the government floods the country with mass migration, driving up demand and destroying quality of life. They paper over the cracks with debt, money printing, and more public servants, which only makes things worse. One Nation warned this would happen. Net zero, mass migration, and bureaucratic strangulation are killing our standard of living—and now one in seven Australians lives below the poverty line, including one in six children. One Nation has solutions: 👉 abolish net zero policies and subsidies 👉 end mass migration 👉 ban foreign ownership 👉 cut red, green, and blue tape 👉 restore breadwinner jobs 👉 protect our farmers 👉 make housing affordable again These problems are man-made, and they can be solved. One Nation is right—and we’re fighting for Australians, not foreign billionaires or globalist agendas.

Mad respect for Minister CTR.Nirmalkumar 👏. He's fighting battles on every front to fix the everyday power cut problems in Chennai, even though the department he's handling is in a very bad shape. Everything around this department has been far from normal. hard disks were stolen from the TNEB head office, fuses are being stolen affecting daily operations, a CBI case is going on related to the transformer scam under former minister Senthil Balaji, there aren't enough workers to handle the workload, and the department is sitting on a debt of over ₹1 lakh crore. This is not a small problem. This is a huge mess that has been building up for years. Turning around a department that has suffered from decades of mismanagement under both Dravidian parties is a himalayan task in itself and CTR.Nirmalkumar is trying to do exactly that. At the same time, he is also working on big plans for Tamil Nadu's energy future like solar power, wind power, rooftop solar, green hydrogen, smart grids, and more. He wants to bring in investments, create jobs for Tamil Nadu's youth, and make Tamil Nadu a leader in clean energy. But one person cannot do all of this alone. A kind request to CMOTamilNadu, all ministers, and every TVK MLAs in Chennai, please stand with him and support him. Visit your local EB offices. Talk to the people directly. Make sure there are enough staff, especially at night when power cuts are the worst. Find out why these problems keep happening and fix them from the root. The people of Tamil Nadu are watching. Let's not let them down.

Why is the difference between nominal and real GDP growth rate only 0.6%? 👉Rupee has depreciated by over 6.5%. So a 8% nominal GDP growth with 6.5% Rupee depreciation means dollar GDP growth of just 1.5%. Why are we not worried? 👉For Viksit Bharat by 2047 - India needs a GDP growth of at least 8.2% every year for the next 21 years.

Why did less than 10,000 people intern in the last 18 months? 👉Survey shows Corporate tax contribution to the total tax kitty declining, personal income tax collection rising. Why are all incentives then for wealthy corporates and not the ordinary tax payers? 👉The survey’s acceptance that students beyond Class 8 are dropping out should ring alarm bells for our education system. Does the Modi govt care which has shut down 90,000 Govt schools and consistently reduced education budget over the years? 👉Survey says India’s pulses, maize and cereal yields remain below global averages - what is being done to make agriculture more remunerative? 👉Survey says traffic and expensive houses are roadblocks for development - will the unliveable urban cities saddled with traffic, waste and pollution wake the govt up?

This is one of the hardest things we have ever had to share. We are not the kind of people who like to ask for help. We have always believed in putting our heads down, working hard, trusting God, and doing everything we can to carry the weight ourselves. But there comes a point where the truth is bigger than pride, and our customers, followers, supporters, and everyone deserves to know what is really happening. Right now, we are in a legal battle with a major meat processor. And while this fight has our name on it, it is much bigger than our family alone. Small producers, family ranchers, and farmers spend generations building something they are proud of, only to come up against an industry that too often protects power over people, profit over principle, and control over transparency. The effects do not stop with the people raising the food. They reach every person purchasing meat because corruption and lack of transparency in the beef industry affect the food system as a whole and the trust families place in what they buy and feed their loved ones. This fight has cost us deeply. Between personal health struggles and the weight of this battle, we have had to make sacrifices we never wanted to make. We have had to cut back on our restaurants and e-commerce. We have sold cattle to help pay attorney fees. We have carried stress, heartbreak, and pressure that, at times, have felt impossible to explain. But we are still here, and we are still fighting. We are fighting for our family, for our ranch, for the values we were raised on, and for every small rancher and farmer who has ever felt crushed under a system that was never built to protect them. So today, we are asking for help. If you believe in family ranches, quality food, hard work, and a more transparent, healthy, and clean food system, please stand with us. One of the best ways you can support us right now is by purchasing our beef at We started a GoFundMe for those who want to be part of something bigger than our family alone. If you want to help us keep fighting, please consider donating and helping us fight for farmers, ranchers:

🚨LAND BANK’S BLACK ANC LOOTING MACHINE IS SYSTEMATICALLY DESTROYING WHITE FARMERS AND STEALING THEIR LAND FOR THE CONNECTED ELITE‼️ The rotten, ANC-controlled Land Bank has been running a full-blown liquidation mafia against white commercial farmers for years‼️ That is not exaggeration, that is the lived experience of farming families who have been targeted, stripped and crushed by a state bank that pretends to exist for agriculture while acting like a political weapon‼️ Over 150 commercial farms have already been liquidated. Multi-generational family operations spanning tens of thousands of hectares have been dismantled. Assets worth R14 million have been auctioned off for R6 million🔥 Thousands of farm workers and their families have been thrown into the street and the same small circle of attorneys, liquidators and auctioneers keep getting the appointments, keep appointing themselves as auctioneers and keep walking away with the spoils‼️ This is not debt recovery, it is organised plunder. The lending agreements were often signed with intermediaries, not directly with the Land Bank. When challenged in court, the Bank has repeatedly failed to produce the actual cession agreements that would give it legal standing🔥 Yet the liquidations continued. An independent Adams & Adams report delivered in 2024 already exposed the “outrageous liquidation practices” unlawfully procured legal services, misrepresented legal standing, intimidation and victimisation of farming families‼️ The Land Bank ignored it and the liquidations continued. Now the Democratic Alliance has finally forced the issue into the Land Bank’s own boardroom this week, demanding an immediate halt to aggressive liquidations, a forensic investigation into the appointment of attorneys and liquidators and the release of the still-secret SIU report on the liquidation industry that has been sitting on the President’s desk since 2023🔥 Let’s stop pretending this is just “bad administration.” This is the predictable outcome of an ANC state institution that has been captured by racial ideology and personal greed‼️ White commercial farmers are treated as soft targets, productive, asset-rich and politically expendable. The land, the machinery, the livestock and the equity get stripped and sold off cheaply to the connected, while the families who built those farms over generations are left broken🔥 Food security is being sacrificed on the altar of ANC cadre enrichment and racial score-settling. Productive white farmers are being liquidated so that politically connected operators can feast on the carcasses🔥 This is theft with a government letterhead. Every Afrikaner farmer under the Land Bank’s boot needs to understand what is happening: they are not dealing with a normal bank. They are dealing with a politically weaponised institution that has shown zero hesitation in destroying families, livelihoods and food production when it serves the interests of those who control it‼️ The request for a halt is a start but it is not nearly enough. The entire network of attorneys, liquidators, auctioneers and Land Bank officials who enriched themselves through this scheme must be forensically investigated, prosecuted where evidence exists and permanently removed🔥 The secret SIU report must be released and the principle that a state bank can liquidate productive farms on contested legal standing must be buried once and for all. South Africa cannot feed itself if its best commercial farmers are being hunted by the very institution that is supposed to support agriculture‼️ The ANC’s Land Bank has blood on its hands, not only the blood of destroyed families, but the future food security of this country🔥 🚨PS-It is time this rotten syndicate got dug up, exposed and destroyed. the Broad-Based Black Economic Empowerment mafia “ANC” and Landbank can never be trusted or successfully financially secure commercial black farmers in South Africa ‼️

Dear media outlets, The Indian Express NDTV A few of you were very quick to run headlines claiming that Sadhguru’s advice made actor Rajesh Kumar quit acting, take up farming and eventually land in ₹2 crore debt. Great headline. Great for clicks. Except there’s a small problem; Rajesh Kumar himself has now come out and explained what actually happened. Yes, he was inspired by Sadhguru’s views on agriculture. Yes, those conversations influenced him. But Rajesh has clearly said that taking up farming was his own decision. He wanted to experience farming himself and understand what farmers actually go through. And the debt didn’t magically appear because someone told him to farm. There were floods, COVID, crop and plantation losses, and problems with finding groundwater. There’s another detail that conveniently disappeared from some of these headlines: Rajesh has already cleared most of that debt. He had said earlier this year that only around 10–15% was left. So why reduce the entire story to “Sadhguru’s advice = ₹2 crore debt”? That isn’t reporting. That’s taking a complicated story, stripping away the context and turning it into a convenient headline. Nobody is asking you to praise Sadhguru. Criticise him if you want. Ask tough questions. That’s what journalism is supposed to do. But when the person at the centre of your story comes forward and says, essentially, “That’s not the whole story,” you have a responsibility to report that too. So here’s a simple question: Will you now publish the clarification with the same prominence as the original story? And will you correct the misleading impression and apologise to your readers, and to Sadhguru ? Or was the truth only interesting until it stopped being useful for the headline? Journalism is about telling the story. Not manufacturing one.

YS Jagan tears into backstabbing ( Vennupotu) party coalition governance Coalition ignores farmers, BCs; ganja peddling serious offence Tadepalli, Aug 26: Former Chief Minister and YSRCP President YS Jagan Mohan Reddy had tore into the coalition governance inefficiency in chalking out contingency plan to mitigate the drought conditions prevailing in the state and trying to play the old game on BC quota in local body elections, besides terming police peddling ganja as the most heinous crime. Speaking to media here on Wednesday, YS Jagan Mohan Reddy said that while there is an average of 52% deficit rainfall in the past two months and farmers are worried about the kharif crop, Chandrababu Naidu has been silent and no assurance has come from the government for any alternative methodology, which shows the lack of concern for agriculture. It was Chandrababu who encouraged litigation when YSRCP government wanted to go ahead with 34 percent reservation to BCs, and now he is playing the same game with polls nearing, but we were ahead of time and gave more than the quota to BCs, he said. The Addanki incident, YS Jagan Mohan Reddy said, shows the level of law and order in the State, with police personnel in an inebriated condition hitting an auto and injuring the inmates, while ganja, liquor and a police uniform were found in the boot of the car in which they were travelling. The government tried to cover up the incident with the DSP, SP and the FIR giving different versions, but the incident shows how deep-rooted the nexus between the political, police and other players and the peddling of ganja is going on in an organised manner. Chandrababu has dismantled the carefully nurtured mechanism of RBKs and farmer welfare measures like free crop insurance, e-cropping and continuous monitoring of market dynamics and has left the agriculture sector in a lurch and no contingency plan was unveiled, and no efforts were made to come to the rescue of the farmers in the kharif season. Distribution of seeds for alternative crops did not begin, nor was the intent of the government told about how it intends to fight the El Niño effect. On one hand, while not extending help in any form, he has been allowing water being drawn by the neighbouring State from Srisailam, ignoring Pothireddypadu and stalling the Rayalaseema Lift Irrigation scheme, leaving the Rayalaseema high and dry. Even the Nagarjuna Sagar waters are being taken away by lift irrigation projects by the neighbouring state and Chandrababu has been a mute spectator, which shows his anti-farmer stand. It was stated in Parliament in a written reply that during 2022-23 there were 1.18 crore applications for crop insurance, while it has fallen to 35.17 lakhs now. When it comes to the BC quota, we have always stood with them and their representation was more than what was promised in economic, political and social forums, with major beneficiaries of all the welfare schemes being BCs. In all, Rs 1.82 lakh crore was given to BCs under various schemes. Even in the legislature, local bodies and Corporation Chairpersons, we have given them a lion’s share. Chandrababu, on the other hand, was found wanting when it comes to the numbers, and he did not send a single MP to the Rajya Sabha during his term, while we have sent four of 11 available seats, and we backed the 50 per cent quota for women. Chandrababu has been vindictive towards BC leaders and has been arresting them on false cases, from S Appalaraju to Chinthada Ravi to Virupakshi. The fee reimbursement dues have placed many BC students in a quandary, as they are not getting their certificates. While we have placed strict enforcement to check drug mania in the state during our term, the Addanki incident shows how the drug mafia is functioning. The top brass give varied and different versions which have no coherence, and the police personnel are placed under VR while the crime is of an unpardonable nature, he said. On the ensuing local body elections and the surveys, he said all that reflect on the poor governance of the coalition and how vexed people are with Chandrababu and his policies.

OIL $120 BY NOVEMBER — AND HE STILL SAYS DEMAND DESTRUCTION IS NOT HERE Cédric Spahr, Ex Head of Investment at Credit Suisse Securities Europe Ltd in Switzerland, puts a number on the next move in crude — then refuses the panic that usually follows. Higher oil is coming, in his view. The rich-world economy breaking at the pump is not. That gap is the whole argument. HIS OIL CALL ➡️ From his market work, oil can easily rise toward $120 by October or November. ➡️ That is another 20% from here, as he frames it. ➡️ Diesel and jet fuel have already become tighter, and more expensive, than gasoline. ➡️ In Germany and France he sees about €2.10 a litre at the pump for gasoline. ➡️ Diesel, he says, is likely to get more expensive over the next four months. THE QUESTION ON THE TABLE ➡️ Then comes the question every logistics boss and farmer is whispering: if diesel hits €3 or €4 a litre, do companies stop producing and do farmers let the harvest rot? ➡️ Empty shelves are the fear. Trucks move the system. Without diesel, the system stalls. ➡️ That is the “magic border” people want named. Spahr refuses to name it as already crossed. STILL FAR FROM THE BREAK ➡️ “I think we are still far from that,” Spahr said. ➡️ A path toward $120 is pain at the pump. ➡️ In his read, it is not yet the point where rich economies shut the factory door. THE 1980s REALITY CHECK ➡️ Spahr lived the early-1980s pump in Switzerland: about one franc a litre. ➡️ Today the sticker looks twice as high. After forty years of inflation, he still calls fuel “relatively cheap.” ➡️ The number on the totem pole is not the same as the burden on a high-value economy. WHY RICH COUNTRIES CAN STILL TAKE IT ➡️ It depends on how much value an economy adds per litre burned. ➡️ Switzerland sells expensive watches, medicines, and financial services. In that model, Spahr says fuel costs could probably be doubled and the machine would still run. ➡️ Some farmers on the Swiss plateau might quit or raise prices. The wider economy does not stop. ➡️ Germany and France are a different story. He can picture some SMEs throwing in the towel. That is strain, not system death. THE REAL SQUEEZE IS NOT THE DIESEL PUMP ➡️ “The main energy source for the modern economy today is electricity, not diesel,” Spahr said. ➡️ He expects European gas prices to rise hard into winter. That feeds through into power bills fast. ➡️ That is where he sees real consequences for small and mid-size firms — stacked on fuel, not instead of it. Energy inflation stays a longer problem. THE BOTTOM LINE Spahr’s sequence is simple: crude can still run toward $120 into autumn, diesel gets dearer than gasoline, and rich high-value economies can still absorb it. The €3–€4 horror line is not the tripwire yet. The quieter threat is power prices arriving on top of diesel, not a sudden collapse at the pump. #OilPrice #DemandDestruction #Diesel #FuelPrices #EnergyInflation #Spahr #EuropeEnergy HT: YouTube Dr. Dietmar Peetz

Buttigieg: It is not too much to ask that, in this country and in this state, one job ought to be enough, which means wages and benefits that make that possible. It’s not too much to ask that you ought to be able to afford to raise a family in this country—to put your kid in child care if you want, or stay home and take care of them yourselves if you want, or do some combination of that if you want—and still have it add up at the end of the month. It is not too much to ask that the wealthiest country in the world have the best health care in the world and that it have the best-funded public schools in the world. And it is not too much to ask that the largest corporations and wealthiest people in this country pay at least as much of their income and wealth in taxes as a schoolteacher, a bus driver, or a firefighter. It is not too much to ask for a different kind of politics, where you look at your leaders in action and actually feel your blood pressure come down a little bit instead of going through the roof. That is a reasonable thing to expect of our leaders. It is not too much to ask. We can do this. Most of us already want this. So the obvious question is: Why hasn’t it happened? And that’s where we’ve got to talk about the system that we’re living with, which, by the way, as a politician, they kind of tell you not to do. Consultants say, “Look, no one’s going to get too fired up about the details of our democratic system when they’re just trying to keep their heads above water in this economy,” which I get, and to some extent I agree. But the reason that so many things are wrong with our economic picture is that so many things are wrong with our political system. And we’ve gotten so used to it, we can forget that there was a time when our political system was the pride of this nation. Wars have been fought for our system, starting with the first one—the one that launched 250 years ago with the Declaration of Independence, the one that gave this nation its being. The Founders risked their lives for a better political system. So don’t tell me it can’t stir people’s hearts. Don’t tell me that it’s not worth fighting for. Especially because until we do something to change our political system, we will continue to suffer from an economic system that lets us down: monopolies squeezing families and farmers on both ends; consumers and workers caught up in a system that can’t serve them; small businesses swamped by the big guys. Right now, what’s at stake is nothing less than the American dream. It is endangered.

The targeting foul against Zack Orr of NCC Football has been overturned, and he will be eligible to start in Saturday's #d3fb National Semifinal vs. Susquehanna Football at 3:30pm EST / 2:30pm CST. I spoke with Steve Shaw, the NCAA's National Coordinator of Officials, about the overturn this morning. Note that the provision in question is whether or not Springfield Football QB Drew Heenan qualified under the rules as a "defenseless player," as the following is one such definition in the NCAA Football Rulebook: "A ball carrier already in the grasp of an opponent and whose forward progress has been stopped." If a defenseless player is hit in the neck or head region by an opponent, then targeting is a proper call under the rules. Steve said: “We’re very clear that he's not defenseless until he is down. And if you go back and look at the video on the play…he's wrapped up and he's going down. And the contact is with [the] runner just as he's going to the ground. So he really has not transitioned to a defenseless player yet. You know, you can make the argument that, well, if he's wrapped up, he's defenseless and he can't really defend himself. But from a replay perspective, we needed a bright line that that was not a judgment, but a bright line. And that is, [he] has to be down, considered down before he's defenseless….He's just beginning to go down and be down. And so we wouldn't consider him down at the time that he's hit. And there's no crown of the helmet involved. The helmet is clearly to the side. And so, from a replay perspective, rules are very clear. You've got to be able to confirm all aspects of targeting for it to be targeting. You couldn't confirm that he was down and then hit. So we didn't give him defenseless status....And that's why the targeting was overturned.” Steve also taught me about something that is important. While regular replay reviews can come out as "confirmed," "overturned," or "stands" (which means that there is not conclusive evidence to overturn, but there isn't a full confirmation of the original call either), targeting calls do not have a "stands" option when they are reviewed. In other words, they are viewed anew and either every element necessary for targeting must be confirmed, or it is overturned. Think of it as being innocent until proven guilty in the review process for targeting. In this case, he was clear to underscore that the elements could have been argued to have existed, but it would have, at best, been a "call stands" decision, which is not sufficient to uphold a targeting call. Steve also expressed the hopes that the instant replay model that has been developed and used in Division 2 will become more utilized in Division 3, related to more-universal instant replay using a coaches' challenge approach (except for targeting), much like we saw in the Centennial Conference this year. He understands the challenges, but he also feels that having two HD camera angles plus the normal web stream (basically at least three cameras) is sufficient to embrace the needs of instant replay. He is not in favor of a D1 type of replay at the lower levels because of the desire to not have constant game interruptions and more technological challenges at the lower levels than we see at D1 -- he stressed his support of a coaches' challenge system in our conversation multiple times. In The (D3FB) Huddle and I give thanks to Steve for his transparency, which is always on display in the CFO training videos he releases on YouTube. I always learn something when I watch his videos, and today was no different in our conversation.

Graham Stuart, MP for Beverley and Holderness delivers a great speech in the parliamentary inheritance tax on family farms debate: It is possible to challenge one’s Government. I said to my Whips then that the best service we could do the Government was to prevent them from doing something stupid, harmful and alienating to voters. I hope that Government Members can see that, because the Opposition cannot change this. People outside say to me, “Can we get this changed?” It is actually up to Labour MPs. They have the majority. Democracy is not about having a majority and doing what one likes. Democracy is about listening and doing what the now Prime Minister told the NFU when he said: “You deserve a Government that listens, that heeds early warnings”. There are one or two warnings about. Listen, change: if the Government change, four years on, no one will remember the U-turn. Whatever civil servants say—they are always very keen to stick with a policy—if it is wrong, stop doing it. And this is wrong. In the minute and 20 seconds I have left, let me say why it is so wrong. We have touched on the various elements, but I am not sure we have pulled it all together. We have a really peculiar group of businesspeople in this country; they are called farmers. They take a return on capital—the millions they have invested in their farms—that is typically less than 1%. There is nobody that I am aware of—no business I was ever involved in—that would remotely consider continuing in an industry that paid less than 1%. These farmers take a pittance and get up at 4 o’clock in the morning for the privilege. They look after the animals and it does not matter if they are ill; they cannot carry their employment rights and go, “I’m not well, I shouldn’t have to go out,” because the cows do not care: they have to go out and look after them, and then they get less than 1% return. Those farmers, the most beneficent public-minded businesspeople in the whole country, then provide excellent food at among the lowest prices in Europe. If ever there were a business that we would not want to go and mess with, it is these—I should not say it, because I will make enemies of them. We must understand how remarkable it is that there is a whole group of businesspeople who take practically nothing from their business, work all the hours God gives, and provide us with some of the finest food in the world at among the lowest prices in Europe. Why would we want to mess with that? Not only do they do that, but they brainwash their children from the earliest age so that they carry on doing it. These people are in indentured service to the nation, providing food while making very little profit. They do it willingly and, in fact, love it: it is their life. To go and mess with them out of some stupid, socialist spite is ridiculous and absurd, and Government Members know that—the hon. Member for North Northumberland certainly does, and he should lead his colleagues to tell the Chancellor to change course, just as we did in 2012 when George Osborne got it wrong.”

South African Foreign Minister Ronald Lamola is appealing to the Zambian government and the family of former President Edgar Lungu to find common ground outside the court process so that he can be buried. He has been lying in a mortuary for close to 10 or 11 months. This is deeply embarrassing. What is wrong with the Zambian government? Why is it so fixated on fighting over a dead body when the family does not want him to be buried under those conditions? I am aware of the argument from supporters of President Hakainde Hichilema, who say that Edgar Lungu did something similar to the family of former President Kenneth Kaunda, when he denied Kaunda’s wish to be buried next to his wife Betty and insisted on a presidential burial site. But even if that is the case, how do you justify a situation where, nearly 11 months later, a former head of state is still lying in a mortuary in a foreign country? At some point, leadership must prevail. Why can the current president not rise above this and say, “…we could continue fighting and wasting taxpayers’ money in South Africa, but out of respect for the deceased and for the dignity of the nation, we will allow the family to honour his wishes?” This is not without precedent. In Zimbabwe, former President Robert Mugabe had indicated that he did not want to be buried at the National Heroes Acre. Despite all the political tensions, President Emmerson Mnangagwa allowed the family to bury him at his rural home in Zvimba. He could have pursued a similar confrontation, but he chose restraint. Someone has to be the adult in the room and recognise that this situation is absurd. It is embarrassing, it is draining, and it is damaging Zambia’s standing internationally. I have spoken to former African presidents who are scathing about what is happening. They are asking a simple question, why not let the family decide? Burial matters are, by their very nature, family matters, not state battles. This rigid idea that all presidents must be buried in a designated place is unnecessary and out of touch. Look at South Africa. Nelson Mandela was buried in his village, Qunu. There was no such nonsense. Meanwhile, ordinary Zambians are struggling. People are going to bed hungry. There is poverty, there is inflation, yet resources are being wasted on a pointless legal fight. It is foolish. Give the man dignity. Let him be buried. If the family wants to bury him in South Africa, let them. If they want to bury him in Zambia, let them. But if they do not want the president to preside over the funeral, why insist on forcing that presence? The message from the South African foreign minister is a diplomatic but firm call for maturity. Resolve this outside the courts. The legal process could drag on for years. Does anyone seriously want a former president to remain in a mortuary for five years? This is not on, it is ridiculous. This is an embarrassment to the continent, and more importantly, to Zambia and Zambians. Can sane people in Zambia please stand up! You can’t politik over a dead man’s remains. Let him rest! A former president left in a mortuary for nearly a year while leaders fight for control is not honour, it is failure of mature leadership!
