In 2016, the Netherlands Meteorological Institute adjusted temperatures at De Bilt, the country's main climate station. Daily maximums from 1901 to 1950 were lowered by up to 1.9C, which removed 16 of 23 heatwaves from the record. The altered data were then used to claim modern heatwaves were unprecedented. Four researchers challenged the changes, but the institute dismissed the criticism, so the analysis went to peer review. In 2021, it was published, conclusively demonstrating the method systematically erased historical heat extremes. Today, the Meteorological Institute has quietly changed its approach, and as a result, seven erased heatwaves have been restored, including the extreme summer of 1947. Here again, we have a government agency caught rewriting climate history. The Netherlands Meteorological Institute erased heatwaves of the past, ignored critics, and reinstated the truth only when the evidence became impossible to ignore. Policies were built on that manipulated record. Dutch farmers lost livelihoods. Industry and the wider economy paid the price. But accountability is coming.

@michaelhallida4 @RossCameron4 It was your dollar that went down, due to irresponsible govt money printing and stimulus spending during those Covid years. The value of the house stayed the same, purchasing power of the dollar decreased

@RossCameron4 Speaking of BS. There's an existing analogue to measure Hanson's & the LNP's brain fart that slashing migration will increase housing affordability. During Covid, mid-2020 to mid-2022, house prices increased in capitals, moreso regionally. 2 years. 0 migration. Prices went up.

The Treasurer's own department says he's full of bull... Treasury secretary Jenny Wilkinson says Jim Chalmers’ fifth budget will not increase the aggregate supply of housing...defending tax hikes because the “revenue needs to be raised from somewhere”. theaustralian.com.au/nation/politic…

@AdamBLiv I’d like a tutorial on selling covered calls so I can follow one of your retirement strategies. I don’t even know what platform I can use 🤔

Good morning! Got any requests for Bitcoin content this week? Let me know!

Back in late 2020, I spoke with Michael Saylor and asked him why Bitcoin destroys every other store of value. His answer will change how you think about money forever: There is $250 trillion in global assets and every single one of them has the same fundamental problem when you look closely enough. Your real estate is immobile, illiquid, and taxed annually without exception and half of all commercial real estate is structurally impaired from COVID with at least a decade of uncertainty still ahead. Your bonds only work when interest rates keep falling and that game has a mathematical floor because the moment rates go negative everyone pulls their money out simultaneously and the entire mechanism that made bonds attractive for four decades inverts overnight. Your equities get taxed at every single layer of existence: > revenue gets taxed as sales tax > cash flows get taxed as income tax > expenses get taxed as payroll tax > trade gets taxed as tariffs (plus regulatory risk sits on top of all of it) And when the price rises by a factor of ten it does not become safer, it becomes more dangerous because it is delaminating from its fundamentals and any disappointment from that point causes catastrophic volatility. Here is what most people never understand about money: Every traditional store of value you own is a vertebrate and if you are a vertebrate you can be killed with a needle because there is a headquarters, a jurisdiction, a regulator, a court that can reach in and end it. Bitcoin is a swarm of hornets with no headquarters to raid, no jurisdiction to exploit, no CEO to arrest, and no regulatory throat to cut because there is no throat. Your money should be a single celled organism, the base layer of the ecosystem, not a vertebrate with a backbone that can be decapitated the moment it becomes inconvenient to the wrong government. Bitcoin is the only asset that structurally solves the problem every other asset you own creates:

@marc02200 You can and you should. Your local bank may give you a loan at 5-6% depending on your profile. Buying $SATA OR $STRC gives you daily or fortnightly ROC payments to pay the loan and leaves you with some play money to buy more Bitcoin.

Please explain this to me like I'm 8 years old... You can literally get a loan for let's say 5-6% and put it in $STRC and get an 11.5% annualized yield? Is this real life cheating? What's the best reason NOT to do this?

@Portfolio_First @marc02200 The addressable market for fixed income is something like $300T . When Saylor sells STRC into this market he never has to pay it back , never a margin call. So it’s different than a multi trillion dollar loan.

@marc02200 Better answer this question - if anyone can take a loan for 5-6%, why Saylor is borrowing at 11,5%?

The whole "Albo owns 47% of my business" meme was a beautiful thing to watch. There were plenty of reply guys in the comments on all business pages being nitpickers, arguing semantics and displaying straight contempt for the entrepreneurs in our society, but they completely missed the point. Yeah, we all know "Albo doesn't literally own 47% of our business" That'd be absurd because then the Gov would actually share downside risk. Yeah, we know the tax rate is progressive. We know that the CGT discount only applies when your business is sold. It's not an outrage at this singular specific line item in the budget. It's "The straw that broke the camel's back", and the Overton Window is shifting. People are willing to talk about the trials and tribulations of running a business publicly, and no longer care about looking weak, desperate or like a failure. That’s a far bigger cultural shift than you may realise. Business isn't meant to be easy. Business is a battlefield, the best offerings will win. There isn't a divine benevolence surrounding business owners meaning that we should guarantee them success, and that’s not what business owners are asking for. People who start a business know the risks. They know the data. They see the cafes close, the shops shut up and the brands disappear. But being entrepreneurial is less a vocation and more a calling and you have to enter the marketplace - the battlefield - to see what you’re made of. To harden your steel. But the battlefield isn’t just your idea versus marketplace sentiment. The battlefield is an unnatural, adulterated landscape riddled with compliance, liability, inflation, bad fiscal policy - the list goes on. Time, stress and costs surrounding all sides of business are slowly compounding. Frogs in a pot, slowly boiling. All the stuff that we need and want will be available - until it isn’t. It will just no longer come from hardworking Aussie families. Multi-national zombie corporations will be there to service us. You know, those big businesses that can lobby, comply, pay the fines and keep growing while offshoring profits through an Irish business registration or some other fancy loophole that is conveniently left open. China and other nations who couldn’t care less about their emissions will continue to feed us our phones, cars and everything in between while we crush any and all domestic production to chase Nyet Zero, to virtue signal that we have shaved our 1% global emissions down to whatever. Small business is increasingly "no man's land", a very hostile curated environment. "Pulling yourself up by your bootstraps" is now a cultural joke rather than fatherly advice to “work hard and have a go”. And still, trying to create and produce is a damn more impressive and useful vocation than most, and the overlord class is squeezing the energetic and the entrepreneurial close to the point where they can no longer sell themselves the pipe dreams of "Next year will be better" "Next budget will be better" “Next product will be better" “Inflation will slow down” "I'm my own boss" "I have freedom because I ‘work for myself’ “ “I’m building equity” Don't mistake the signal for the noise.

@LetSleepingDogz @JulianHillMP House prices and other hard assets have gone up because the money has been debased. And yes income increases don’t keep up with the debasement. It’s not a left or right issue. It’s the monetary system working as designed. You own assets or get left behind.

@JulianHillMP Hard to argue with this

Australia’s tax system will be fairer, more productive and give young Australians a fair crack at buying a home #auspol

Please take the time 20min to read or listen to this and pass on to any left leaning friends that need to see through the Labour propaganda

@Wei__Liu @pete_rizzo_ Lower your time preference

@pete_rizzo_ Yet $MSTR is still red in pre-market

JUST IN: $13 TRILLION BLACKROCK JUST ANNOUNCED THEY INCREASED THEIR #BITCOIN EXPOSURE VIA MSTR TO OVER $3 BILLION WORLDS LARGEST FINANCIAL INSTITUTION BUYING BTC 🔥🚀

@Devilxtruth @pete_rizzo_ Nobody was scammed. You’ve just learnt to choose your entry price better and to expand your teeny weeny time horizon

@pete_rizzo_ Still shitstock $MSTR crying ... fking loosers stop praising saylor asshole ... he scammed innocent people who bought is his shitstock above 400

@Cheffo987 @GeoffWilsonWAM How’s your cost of living. Must be decreasing rapidly now that you’ve voted for @AlboMP twice.

@GeoffWilsonWAM This is blatantly false and deliberately misleading.

The CGT tax changes will negatively impact all Australians. It must be stopped. What do you think?

@Cheffo987 @GeoffWilsonWAM Bot 🤦‍♂️

Labor is getting ABSOLUTELY PUMPED by small business owners right now and it’s glorious! They’re flooding the timeline with posts about their “silent business partner” who rips away 47% of their profits… and doesn’t lift a single finger to help. This is the perfect, savage protest against Labor’s greedy capital gains tax grab. Taxation is theft. Libertarians will NEVER vote for tax hikes, they destroy families, crush businesses, and bleed the life out of the people actually making this country work. Game over, Labor. The silent partner just got exposed. Vote 1 @LibertariansNSW at the upcoming State Election! Add yours in the comments below! Original video by @GemmaNoiosi

@GardinerRob @GeoffWilsonWAM The billionaires and boomers and labour pollies are all exempt / grandfathered from these changes. Any ambo retail worker teacher nurse or even rich pharmacists will have 47% cgt and no negative gearing to look forward to. Wake up socialism is very bad for everyone. Read history.

@GeoffWilsonWAM The old death tax scare campaign raises its header again. It’s old and tiresome.

The CGT changes are Albo's WorkChoices moment, politically untenable. If anything we should move the other way with a flat 20% CGT to encourage investment, encourage entrepreneurs from around the world to build businesses here, and encourage capital to flow into Australia. theaustralian.com.au/business/tech-…

@Chip_Prospect @AlboMP @JEChalmers The under 40s are getting crucified. The Boomers are living in clover.
