[Announced Today] Today, we’re excited to announce that Across Ventures intends to launch a new $100M Fund-of-Funds platform focused on specialized micro VCs, with SBI Holdings (@sbigroup) as a strategic partner. Through this initiative, we aim to connect leading-edge U.S. innovation with Japanese corporations — faster, broader, and deeper — and further accelerate U.S.–Japan innovation collaboration. It is a true honor to partner once again with SBI and @yoshitaka_kitao, with whom I’ve had the privilege of working closely since my time at @Ripple. Please see the full release for details.

@MarkoMatvikov @TheAlithia He has to be inbred, surley

TV host makes a good point about saving money on advertising. Albo snaps back with a reminder that the advertising is a bribe to media networks. I wish I wasn’t conditioned to be so cynical.

@AshPolitik What a clown 🤡 you can smell the cat piss from here.

One Nation leader Pauline Hanson caught out in a deliberate lie, live on TV. We need more of this #auspol #onenation #PaulineHanson #politics #Australia

It’s far worse than you thought. This $20 million taxpayer-funded ad is pure shameless propaganda — straight out of Orwell’s 1984, except even more pathetic and desperate. It opens with a flat-out lie: "The global fuel shortage is affecting us all.” Bullshit. The crisis is far worse here in Australia because this reckless, incompetent government has criminally failed to maintain the minimum 90 days of fuel reserves we are legally committed to under the IEA agreement. We are now the only nation on Earth disgracefully in breach — a world-class embarrassment.While Australia carelessly let our reserves plummet to less than 40 days, Japan — another island nation — keeps over 200 days. But competence is clearly too much to ask from these clowns. Then comes the next lie: “The government has been working to secure Australia’s fuel supply.” Absolute garbage. This government hasn’t “worked” on anything except covering its own arse. They’ve failed spectacularly and negligently, letting reserves crash through the floor. Albanese’s pathetic junket to Singapore was nothing more than a photo-op stunt to hoodwink the gullible. Singapore just refines crude — if Middle East supplies get cut, their “agreement” is worth less than used toilet paper. If they were actually serious about securing fuel, our navy would be alongside the Americans trying to keep the Straits of Hormuz open. But no — Albanese is too busy pandering to the Islamic vote in Western Sydney to protect Australia’s national interest. Then the gaslighting reaches peak comedy: “The government has a four-level national security plan.” What a load of fabricated horseshit. Their so-called “four step plan” is: 1. Pray and set up excuses 2. Pray and blame others 3. Pray and spin BS 4. Panic The whole ad is a disgusting lie wrapped in cutesy “fuel saving tips.” In reality, it’s pure Soviet-style propaganda designed to distract from the brutal truth: Australia’s fuel crisis is unique to Australia — entirely self-inflicted by this government’s gross negligence, incompetence, and failure. It’s a sick joke. But at this point, it’s exactly what Australians have come to expect from a Prime Minister who is a compulsive, pathological liar — a man so full of spin and deceit that bullshit pours out of his mouth every single time he opens it. Australia deserves better than this pathetic excuse of a Government.

....oh and look at Franklin XRPZ, the exact same time as the Bitwise XRP ETF, volume comes pouring in. Shares just in the few hundreds per minute switch instantly to 3,000-7,000 shares per minute. This isn't retail, this is coordinated institutional volume.

@TruthFairy131 It’s a cult

Anthony Albanese has appointed Australia’s first female army chief in a major shake-up only days after the Australian Defence Force was rocked by the arrest of Ben Roberts-Smith. Lieutenant General Susan Coyle was named as the new Chief of Army on Monday. AFP Commissioner- Female Army Chief- Female

This woman can save Australia 🇦🇺

@r3tarddownunder Looks inbred

This is the Australian Prime Minister. This is a retard.

@RealAlexJones is a fraud and Bill Cooper knew it.

@Matt_Camenzuli 💯

It is very clear that we are poorly served by a growing class of arrogant and out of touch politicians, and Bowen is their mascot. Our politicians forget themselves. They forget that we don’t answer to them - They answer to us. They don’t pay us - We pay them. Chris Bowen has broken just about every promise that he has made. Industry is furious, electricity users are furious, and now motorists are furious. They promised that power bills would come down. Instead, power bills have gone up, while at the same time industry continues its exodus. The government is propping up a select few corporations with tax dollars and even taking over some directly. That is not the sign of a healthy energy market, or sustainable industry. It is not the sign of success that Bowen needs to maintain a modicum of credibility. So, Liam Bartlett calls him out, asks him real questions that cut to the viability of Bowen’s solutions to our real energy problems. But instead of answering Bartlett’s questions, the Minister responsible for the broken promises chooses instead to attack the journalist. Liam Bartlett is finally asking the questions that need to be asked. He is not just smiling and curtseying to the press corps - he is doing his job. Bowen shows us the answers, not by the words he says, but what he doesn’t say. It begs further questions. For me they are; Who does Bowen think he is? Followed closely by, who does he think he answers to? The answers are as obvious as the lack of answers he provides about our energy future. If it wasn’t so important, it wouldn’t really matter. But on a large and isolated continent like Australia, energy security is our life blood. Without an abundance of cheap and reliable energy, we will starve. Bowen might think his primary role is curating the swooning reporters he likes, but we all know that it is not his job. He answers to us. If he finds the questions uncomfortable, too bad. If the press required him to explain the truth of the storm we are really in - a storm that has been brewing for decades and is now spiraling out of control in front of us - then so be it. We can’t fix what we can’t see. Bowen must level with us. If he can’t fix the problems, get out of the way for somebody who can. Bowen should sit down with Liam Bartlett, and respectfully answer his questions. The people of Australia deserve nothing less. I just want Australia back.

@TimjboAU The lame street media has destroyed this country

Ben Roberts-Smith Arrest Handling Slammed NINE coordinated with the AFP Whoever came up with the strategy to loop #9NEWS in at every step of the arrest should be sacked 'Krissy Barrett owes us all an explanation.' This best summary I've heard all week, kudos, Jack Houghton.

Australia was the greatest place on earth 60's 70's 80's 90's. Inexpensive,uncrowded, self-sufficient, low price housing. Politicians have destroyed it. Now you are fed diversity is our strength . No one wants to live in the past. By Albanese, a former Communist party member. Anyone who lived in those times will tell you how great this country was.

@bastard_untamed @JoelKatz @jakiro_soker 👊💪

All disagreement with official truths will be considered by those in government to be deliberate misinformation. Some of the most important public political debates of the past decade (for example, around vaccine mandates) involved each side vehemently accusing the other of spreading deliberate, harmful misinformation for financial gain. We saw many governments punishing and limiting speech on precisely that basis even though the speech was on the very most important political decisions of the time, directly impacting elections. Nobody saying something like this could possibly believe in freedom of speech. What they believe is much more sinister. They believe it's important that people *think* others have free speech so they are convinced that they are hearing all sides of an argument while *they* retain control over what political viewpoints are and aren't permitted to be advanced. We see this playing out even today around the most important political issues of the day. For example, immigration policy.

💥💥💥💥💥💥 Dan Bongino @dbongino calls out Alex Jones @RealAlexJones BIG TIME! 👀 BONGINO: “Alex Jones is full of shit! If you want to listen to his show, fine! Go right ahead! This guy is a FRAUD! … The guy’s a total FAKE and a PHONY! It’s not REAL! It’s all BULLSHIT!”

EPIC BACKFIRE IN IRELAND The Irish Government sent in the MILITARY to CRUSH fuel protesters…but the Crowds EXPLODED in size. Now, huge parts of the country are RUNNING OUT OF FUEL. Their Globalist Regime has COMPLETELY LOST CONTROL

Japanese banks just showed 60% cost savings using #XRP over SWIFT with settlements in under 4 seconds. Live pilot data, not theory. @Ripple and SBI making it work globally. #xrpfamily #XRPHolders

JUST IN: 🇺🇸 Treasury Secretary Bessent says crypto is a "technology the world is adopting."

In a few weeks, the Senate will vote on the ASIO Amendment Bill (No. 2)—and every Australian who values freedom under the law should be paying attention. This Bill doesn’t just extend extraordinary powers—it makes them permanent. Powers that were meant to expire by March 2027 would instead become ongoing. It expands compulsory questioning for adults and even minors, weakens safeguards, limits access to legal counsel, and lacks proper judicial oversight. These are not ordinary powers. They allow the state to compel answers under threat of penalty. That is a serious intrusion into personal liberty. Of course, national security matters—but it must never come at the unchecked expense of freedom. For these reasons, I will NOT be supporting this Bill.
