So far as I can tell, no.

There really is about to be a major supply chain interruption

It looks like a planned gradual turnup

I’m pointing to an old one because the causes are well known, there isn’t any current propaganda campaign to confuse people about it, and its a wide-area unanticipated failure.

That kind of facility tends to have its own backup power, often with a week or so of fuel stockpiled on-site.

Back when Hurricane Katrina hit New Orleans, there was a period where the only building with power was a datacenter. The lights prompted soldiers to break in, and the system admin wound up having to pretend that they’d discovered evidence of somebody nefarious forcing the door, so they’d clear the building and leave.

I think that one is coming from the UK Daily Mail which is generally unreliable.

During one of these events, it’s really common for all kinds of misinformation and rumors to fly, and even to come from otherwise trustworthy people.

I’ll note that the US had some very large-scale blackouts in the 1960s which were caused by fairly ordinary technical problems.

In the US, the towers that provide mobile service are required to have a few hours worth of battery backup. The EU may require more, but I’d expect them to go down not too long after the main grid goes out.

Prosperity has never been his main aim. Tariffs serve to create attention for him, and leverage to collect bribes.

It’s not going to be just 25 when all is said and done. Multiple other countries are looking at ways to recruit American researchers or bring home their own nationals who have been working as professors in the US.

The US accepted top talent from both Italy and Germany during WWII.

Ordinary citizens are going to have a hard time jumping ship, but star researchers will be able to.

Cars, power plants, and combustion for heating and cooking

It’s not even the bots; it’s that the feed ranking on 𝕏itter is tuned based on Musk’s whim, and he’s most likely modifying it so that people dot get seen if they’re not going along with his Nazism or cult.

There is a report

The following nine states have established statewide 30×30 goals and are currently in the process of implementing them: California, Hawaii, Maine, Maryland, Massachusetts, Nevada, New Mexico, New York, and Vermont.

I think the ones who might have a spine were purged from the Republican Party over the last few years. There might be a couple in the Senate and a few more in the house, but nowhere near enough

What do you mean nothing? They’ve actively supported him.

He has only been sighted reading one book:

Last April, perhaps in a surge of Czech nationalism, Ivana Trump told her lawyer Michael Kennedy that from time to time her husband reads a book of Hitler’s collected speeches, My New Order, which he keeps in a cabinet by his bed. Kennedy now guards a copy of My New Order in a closet at his office, as if it were a grenade. Hitler’s speeches, from his earliest days up through the Phony War of 1939, reveal his extraordinary ability as a master propagandist.

“Did your cousin John give you the Hitler speeches?” I asked Trump.

Trump hesitated. “Who told you that?”

“I don’t remember,” I said.

“Actually, it was my friend Marty Davis from Paramount who gave me a copy of Mein Kampf, and he’s a Jew.” (“I did give him a book about Hitler,” Marty Davis said. “But it was My New Order, Hitler’s speeches, not Mein Kampf. I thought he would find it interesting. I am his friend, but I’m not Jewish.”)

Later, Trump returned to this subject. “If I had these speeches, and I am not saying that I do, I would never read them.”

Is Ivana trying to convince her friends and lawyer that Trump is a crypto-Nazi? Trump is no reader or history buff. Perhaps his possession of Hitler’s speeches merely indicates an interest in Hitler’s genius at propaganda

How things really work don’t matter much when you’re a fascist. They simply lied, lied big, and lied often, until people were convinced otherwise

My high school classes spent a lot more time than that on WWII, but most definitely did not cover Hitler’s tariff policy.

I’m hearing that he has been released as a result of the public anger
