Also Peter - do an update on EV forecasting based on the announcement from Investor day at Tesla where Musk reavealed the next generation motor will use zero rare earth minerals and the batteries have had their consumption cut by 25%. This significantly alters the bottleneck in production, cost and sustainability you have said will hinder mass EV production.

Since CPAC I have noticed a strategic shift in the Right - not just the Maga Traitors but in the party itself. They are now actively pushing the position that the war in Ukraine is a reckless waste of money and even the Europeans want out of it. They seem to be trying to create a wedge issue around the cost of aid which could have been better spent on all the struggling people at home for border security, crime or train derailments. That' something we have known could become an issue since the mid terms. A radical congress could halt funding of aid to Ukraine - even the approved bills just by withholding the payments. They represent a real threat to Ukraine's ability to survive the spring offensive. One likely scenario is that congressional choking off of funding right around the government shutdown showdown on extending the debt limit will create an environment that will allow Gemany and France to push for Zelensky to sue for peace and cede land. If you want to know where all that Russian gold is going - look no further than the private vaults and safety deposit boxes of US and European politicians and influencers - you Tucker! I would be willing to bet you could fund your own little country with what you find.

Beyond that Putin would be wise to drag out the conflict through the next presidential election. If Trump or one of his more capable dictator clones come in, he can swing their support from Ukraine to him. Before this is over we could well have the 101st on the ground taking Kyiv for Russia. That would be the final violence to democracy in this country.
