Silicon Valley Bank is a wholly owned subsidiary of the Democratic Party USA.

Ponzi schemes collapse. Itâs no surprise.
The entire âgreenâ movement is a scam that does not work economically.

The âgreenâ movement is also far more destructive to the environment than oil and natural gas. It isnât even close. The ravaging of the earth required to mine the materials to make the batteries is ridiculous, not to mention the toxic waste created in both the manufacturing and disposal of those batteries.

Since Trump ordered deregulation that led to the failure of SVB, it is therefore Trump's fault that the renewable energy initiative will fail causing the destruction of our planet!

It’s easy to make the case: zero interest rates and governments handing out money like Magic Basic Lands were helping racialized, minoritized, and BIPOC individuals. Shutting off the spigots and raising rates has made it more difficult for marginalized people to subsist without working and has delayed the distribution of reparations. The collapse of the Silicon Valley Bank sends a shudder through the markets and the halls of Handouts, resulting in Millions Dying among the Black, Brown, and LGBTQIA+ Communities.

Solyndra cost taxpayers about $600 million, but those big donations to Democrats and their preferred entities were never recaptured. If I had to guess, everyone connected will be bailed out as they were involved in such ârighteous doingsâ.

I train pilots all over the world to use certain military equipment.
Iâve flown over (very very low) some of those mining sites.
Itâs worse than you can imagine.
