I'd be more impressed if they demanded rubels be used as payment for American energy
Discussion
Haha! Heard two clips on podcast yesterday about how Russia seized 120B of shell, Econ, Total, car companies, "for the state" from Europe, in retaliation for the frozen funds they plan to spend. PLUS, Russian energy must now be paid for in rubels! Seems a huge story, but didn't see much posting about it. Need to find source they clipped from and get more info. Brb
Wonder why it's not more reported on.
Downplaying trade war to avoid making people think too much about why prices go up?
Or maybe Russia's handling the trade war more strongly than expected and we don't want to admit that?
Or something else, idk
I suspect the wild gold and silver and lithium price action is connected. Gonna go find this Yann's V-something's pod which it's clipped from and have a listen. Will report back 🫡
Ah ha. Found it, in case you're interested. Gonna have a listen soon meself
I'm now uncertain this is not a deep fake. It doesn't contain the clip I was after, and I'm now learning there are a slew of deep fakes of this guy. FYI
sure looks like AI to me.
but maybe the content is good, I don't know.
I listened while away from phone. Can't find where No Agenda clip came from, but trust it's legit. Then after listening I found a recent podcast with him where he says the number of AI fakes of him is out of control... and they mostly say stuff he would but tweak something here or there, and are very convincing.
Original Fountain clip should (?) be legit, but now I'm not sure since I can't source it. Don't wanna spend more time searching, so figured I'd post disclaimer and move on :/
