Super startup Northvolt, the West's last hope for "Showing the Chinese How to Make Batteries", succumbed to bankruptcy.

The documents say that as of Thursday morning, the company has $ 30 million in accounts and in cash, which, literally, "will not be enough for operational activities for the next week." And yes, they invested 15 billion dollars there. Among investors: Volkswagen, Goldman Sachs and BlackRock, plus government subsidies from Germany and Canada.

They screwed up everything - overestimated their abilities and potential, believed the unrealistic promises "we are about to develop technologies and tear everyone up" (see "fake it until you make it" ), the management was slow and rigid, and the graft, apparently was off the charts.

They had so many hopes. "Yes, the Swedes! Let them crush the Chinese! Yes, Swedes are the real technological giant! Yes, investments! Yes, Scandinavian quality! Yes, the Chinese are doomed!"
Yeah, that's right...

The question "What happened to the Elon Musk's fairy-tale factory, which was positioned to produce 40% of the world's batteries?" has not been asked for a while. Now the time has come to say good-bye to the 'Nordic volt" as well.

So I was doing a small amount of digging…let me preface by saying I am not a medical professional of any kind just an observer and also my father died of heart disease.

President Trump has some kind of heart problem. So he’s on medication for it. I questioned different AI apps and asked can certain heart medication side effects cause dementia like symptoms. The answer was yes. So whether someone’s dementia is medically induced or natural the effect is the same.

Within hours of the Epstein file release,

a superPAC funded by Israel-first billionaires Miriam Adelson, Paul Singer, and John Paulson, who himself appears in Epstein’s black book,

bought another $800,000 of TV ads against me.

I’ll still win, but if I lose, it was worth it.

Tongue planted firmly in cheek. Add to the fact Putin has offered refuge to all Christians in the west who would like to flee from their circumstances.

A quick commentary on the "Piss Summit"

I might not be able to upload much more or do lives for a while

My Fellow Duranianss.

Yes, it's happened again. I have been assaulted by a vicious Malware Bot Virus or whatever 911 Socks is and this thing is bad !

However I wanted to give you a "peace" of my mind concerning the "Piece" or piss, as Elensky calls it, as this thing fell to pieces before it even happened.

Coincidentally on the very SAME DAY this crap happened Saudi Arabia DROPPED the US Petrodollar as a buying currency and NO ONE absolutely NO ONE is talking about this fact anywhere !!!

Hope to see you all asap.
