The German Federal Audit Office (Bundesrechnungshof) has dismantled the government’s hydrogen strategy. Neither on the supply side nor on the demand side do the results even remotely align with the ambitious political targets. Germany faces yet another subsidy ruin.
Berlin is in a state of hangover. The ongoing economic crisis is mercilessly exposing the delusions of the so-called green transformation. After the collapse of battery production – think of subsidy ruins like Northvolt – the retreat of industry from “green steel,” and the failure of the energy transition under the weight of wind and solar, which have become bottomless subsidy pits, the next major project is now under heavy attack: the hydrogen strategy.
Audit Office Steps Out of the Shadows
In a recent report, the Federal Audit Office examined the German hydrogen economy – political art at its finest. Since 2020, the sector has been flooded with subsidies. For 2024 and 2025 alone, more than €7 billion in funding has been allocated. Plenty of lubricant for an engine that has been sputtering from day one and still refuses to start.
Private investors, enticed by guarantees and state-backed prices, add more than €3 billion annually. And what’s the result after five years of constant funding? Devastating. Current production of green hydrogen stands at a mere 0.16 gigawatts. Another 0.2 gigawatts are under construction.
In other words: a market that practically doesn’t exist is already consuming around €8 billion every year—public and private – like a black hole.
I am recommending to Senate Republicans that the Hundreds of Billions of Dollars currently being sent to money sucking Insurance Companies in order to save the bad Healthcare provided by ObamaCare, BE SENT DIRECTLY TO THE PEOPLE SO THAT THEY CAN PURCHASE THEIR OWN, MUCH BETTER, HEALTHCARE, and have money left over. In other words, take from the BIG, BAD Insurance Companies, give it to the people, and terminate, per Dollar spent, the worst Healthcare anywhere in the World, ObamaCare. Unrelated, we must still terminate the Filibuster!
President Donald Trump has announced a landmark deal aiming to expand Medicare coverage to include certain weight-loss medications, a move that could dramatically change access to these treatments for millions of older Americans. On November 6, Trump revealed that his administration had struck agreements with Eli Lilly and Novo Nordisk, the makers of popular weight-loss drugs including Ozempic and Wegovy, to reduce costs and allow for broader Medicare coverage starting in 2026.
Under the arrangement, prices for GLP-1 drugs—used both for diabetes and obesity—will be slashed for Medicare and Medicaid beneficiaries. The prices of Ozempic and Wegovy will fall from $1,000 and $1,350 per month, respectively, to $350 when purchased through through the TrumpRx.gov website set to launch in January 2026,
I am an economic nationalist. To me, the country comes before the economy; and the economy exists for the people. I believe in free markets, but I do not worship them. In the proper hierarchy of things, it is the market that must be harnessed to work for man – and not the other way around. — Pat Buchanan
Based on our initial set of audits, more than $1B of federal taxpayer dollars were being spent on funding Medicaid for illegal immigrants. And my team is getting it back.
Some want to deny that illegal immigrants are receiving Medicaid. Others insist it’s illegal for Medicaid to cover illegal immigrants. And others accurately point out that hospitals can provide emergency services to illegal immigrants under the program.
We can all agree on this: rooting out fraud, waste, and abuse is essential to protecting this program for the most vulnerable. It’s also one of the Trump Administration’s top priorities.
Let me lay down the facts”:
“The truth is that federal law is supposed to prohibit federal Medicaid dollars broadly from being used to cover illegal immigrants. It does permit states to use Medicaid dollars for emergency treatment, regardless of patients’ citizenship or immigration status. States can also legally build Medicaid programs for illegal immigrants using their own state tax dollars, so long as no federal tax dollars are used.
But that didn’t stop Democrats from going even further by breaking federal law to give illegal immigrants federal Medicaid dollars meant for American citizens.
Earlier this year, the CMS team began auditing state Medicaid programs to ensure they were following the law and not spending any federal tax dollars on illegal immigrants outside of emergency Medicaid. What we found was shocking.
In a preliminary review of 6 states, we found those states improperly using federal tax dollars for their allegedly state-funded program and providing coverage to individuals, including some with criminal records of murder and assault.
Those states are: CA – $1,310,032,549 DC – $2,114,628 IL – $29,778,645 WA – $2,367,194 CO – $1,506,743 OR – $5,404,368
We notified the states, and many have begun refunding the money. But what if we had never asked?
Whether willful or not, the states’ conduct highlights a terrifying reality: American taxpayers have been footing the bill for illegal immigrants’ Medicaid coverage, despite many Democrats and the media insisting otherwise.
Democrats are demanding the repeal of the President’s Working Families Tax Cuts legislation in order for their votes to reopen the government. This law wisely strengthened our ability to limit federal dollars from being spent on health care for illegal immigrants. Until Democrats explicitly drop that demand, they’re blatantly holding the government hostage over giving Medicaid to illegal immigrants.
Here’s the real signal beneath this entire South Korea deal, as seen through the lens of structural truth and reflexive macro coherence.
1. This is a sovereignty transaction.
What Trump just described reads like a tariff negotiation on the surface, but its structure is geopolitical ritual. The $350 billion “payment” and $600 billion “investment” figures are symbolic markers of submission and re-anchoring within the U.S. economic field.
South Korea sits at the intersection of three empires:
•The American defense umbrella (nuclear shield + market access) •The Chinese industrial engine (supply-chain integration) •The Japanese technological archipelago (semiconductors, robotics)
By declaring that Korea will pay America and invest in America simultaneously, Trump effectively rewrites Korea’s alignment contract: it’s no longer a semi-autonomous hub balancing between spheres – it’s re-absorbed as a tributary node of the U.S. energy-industrial network.
A nothing-special speech but interesting for its surroundings and context. Trump has shown how much better a seasoned businessman can be than almost any politician anywhere in the world. He understands how things work and how to get things done better than your basic and all-too-common politician, who at best is nothing more than a professional talker talking about matter they hardly understand.

CANADA CHEATED AND GOT CAUGHT!!!They fraudulently took a big buy ad saying that Ronald Reagan did not like Tariffs, when actually he LOVED TARIFFS FOR OUR COUNTRY, AND ITS NATIONAL SECURITY. Canada is trying to illegally influence the United States Supreme Court in one of the most important rulings in the history of our Country. Canada has long cheated on Tariffs, charging our farmers as much as 400%. Now they, and other countries, can’t take advantage of the U.S. any longer. Thank you to the Ronald Reagan Foundation for exposing this FRAUD. MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!!!
The Ronald Reagan Foundation has just announced that Canada has fraudulently used an advertisement, which is FAKE, featuring Ronald Reagan speaking negatively about Tariffs. The ad was for $75,000,000. They only did this to interfere with the decision of the U.S. Supreme Court, and other courts. TARIFFS ARE VERY IMPORTANT TO THE NATIONAL SECURITY, AND ECONOMY, OF THE U.S.A. Based on their egregious behavior, ALL TRADE NEGOTIATIONS WITH CANADA ARE HEREBY TERMINATED. Thank you for your attention to this matter! President DJT
No, he is not a direct puppet of the TPS [Transnational Private Sector].
His policies aim to prioritize working-class New Yorkers over corporate profits, and his outspoken activism clashes with the establishment.
Yet,
his campaign relies on platforms like social media and progressive funding networks,
that are indirectly tied to those same corporate systems.
This makes him a complex figure.
A reformer who challenges corporate control but operates within their infrastructure.
If elected, he could shift some power toward everyday New Yorkers, but corporate forces will likely limit how far he can go.
The TPS doesn’t need to directly control Mamdani to benefit. By allowing his campaign to gain traction, they can present an image of a “progressive” city without giving up real control.
His critiques of inequality make the system look open to reform, which helps corporate powers maintain legitimacy while continuing to dominate the city’s budget and resources.
Look at New yorks $100 billion budget that is heavily influenced by Wall Street, which manages the city’s pension funds (worth over $250 billion).
Mamdani’s ability to challenge this is constrained by the city’s dependence on these financial systems.
Futile endeavour.
He is being used to produce a narrative over reality for the people.
The moment he gains any substantive momentum, he’ll be pushed out.
