ause if you live there, you've got all these corrupt influences. You know, that gangster you grew up with and the people you went to school with and your wife's family who wants that contract. You can't let the people who live there control the money. They will always be corrupt. They would just give it to their family members etc. So you need some kind of independent, physically not there entity to not only decide where the money is spent but then to watch it like a hawk and report on it so that everybody knows where it went. If you can't get that part right, nothing else works. So somehow Jared has to solve the problem of what happens when money is introduced into the zone and then who gets to decide where it goes, who watches it, and who reports it to the people to make sure it went to the right place. If you don't get that part right, nothing else matters. And that's the hardest part to get right. Nobody's done it. As far as I know, nobody's ever done it. I believe every city is corrupt. But if Jared could pull that off with some clever set of systems, it would be one of the greatest things that ever happened in the world. Think about that. The odds of pulling that off are pretty low. It's maximum challenge. But what if he did it? What if they pulled that off? Witkoff and Jared Kushner, what if they actually built a city that by its design, the systems they put in place avoided corruption? Can you even imagine that? That would be one of the greatest things that ever happened in the history of humankind. So I don't know what you're working on today, but those two guys have a chance to change everything. Do they have a plan? Probably not yet. But do they have the skills that the two of them could conceivably come up with a way to build a non-corrupt zone? And I think yes. I think yes. I believe that they have the skill to do that. Doesn't mean it will get done because there will be a lot of pushback in every possible way. But yeah, they might be the only two dudes that could pull that off right now.

Trump has announced an end to the Colombian foreign aid. I didn't even know we were giving Colombia foreign aid, but apparently now they're a bunch of illegal drug dealers too. Trump's not happy with the president of Colombia who is not happy with us. So Trump's going to discontinue whatever our subsidies were for Colombia. I feel like the subsidies were for the purpose of fighting drugs, weren't they? So is he saying that we've been paying Colombia to fight drugs, but Colombia is actually the drug cartel and we've been paying the cartel? Is that what happened? I don't know if that's what happened. I'm seeing some yeses. So yes, if that's even close to what's happening, and I don't know that it is, but if the government is embedded with the cartel and we were paying the government to deal with the cartel, well, maybe it's time to stop doing that, huh?

You would not be surprised to hear because it's Groundhog Day all over again. Ukrainian drone struck a major Russian gas plant. How many times have I said that? Like every day, right? Every day there's another Russian major energy structure that got attacked. So that's happening.

Other positive news. Interesting Engineering has a story about a wind turbine. So it's basically the fans of a windmill would be the turbine part, but apparently somebody has developed a new shape for the turbine. Now I don't know what turbine means. If you say turbine enough, you don't know what it means. Turbine, turbine, turbine. God, now I don't even know what it means. But it would be the little things that the air is bouncing off of. And they've figured out how to make one that boosts energy output by 83% with 35% less weight. Fiber composite rotors make a small turbine stronger, more durable. 83%. Do you believe that they figured out how to make a windmill 83% more efficient all of a sudden with just a shape change? It's just a shape, you know, something easy to reproduce, a shape. Well, if that's true, finally your dream can come true, which is you'll be able to watch television even when the wind is just barely blowing. Of course, I'm joking. Trump always says that the windmills are no good because when the wind stops blowing you can't watch TV, which of course is not true, but it's hilarious every time he says it. And now I'm thinking, finally, we can watch TV when the wind is barely blowing. You know, maybe it's so efficient, those little turbines, that you could have one in your house without making your neighbors crazy from the sound and the dead birds.
