Fortescue investors might as well set their money on fire

This is civilizational demolition led by @AlboMP and Twiggy who sold Australians on the delusion that electricity from wind and solar could power mining, steel-making, and H2! It was always ridiculous yet he boasted of this nonsense to the applause of the New York Times in 2021

How will Twiggy Forrest explain to shareholders why he personally took A$1.2B even as Fortescue's net debt quadrupled from US$0.9B in June to US$3.5-4.5B by the end of this year? Why are Australian taxpayers subsidizing Fortescu's failures while enriching the Bank of China?

Twiggy Forrest claims to care about the people of Australia, but he paid investors US$1 billion in third quarter of 2026 even though Fortescu is in the middle of an epic price dispute with China that may force it to scale back mining operations within a matter of weeks.

This is just straight-up misinformation by @FT and @guardian @FlavioBolsonaro fled to the US because, 7 minutes after the election results came in, the Federal Police, under Moraes's order, moved to confiscate his passport.

Shame on you @vonderleyen @AlexanderSoros @andyburnham @bundeskanzler @EmmanuelMacron for endorsing the Lula-Moraes repression of their political enemies and Brazil's further descent into tyranny.
