In a reversal that stunned many EU insiders, the German government decided to push for a loophole that would allow the sale of combustion engine cars beyond the 2035 deadline — as long as they run on synthetic fuels.

When EU lawmakers voted to ban the sale of new combustion engine cars in the bloc by 2035, it was a landmark victory for climate. In February, the European Parliament approved the law. All that was needed was a rubber stamp from the bloc’s political leaders. Then Germany changed its mind. It’s an exception that could put the European Union’s green credentials at risk. The bloc is legally obliged to become carbon-neutral by 2050.

“[Germany’s] plan would derail the decarbonization of the new fleet while allowing more conventional oil to be used in the existing fleet post-2035 — a win-win for Big Oil.” Even some carmakers have come out against the potential changes to the law. A group of dozens of companies including Volvo and Ford have penned an open letter to the European Union, pushing against the exception.

CNN's Quest: 'More Banks Are Going to Go out of Business' -- They're 'Stuffed' with Bonds“More banks are going to go out of business. More state and regional banks in the United States will need to be resolved — to use the technical phrase — they’ll be taken over, they’ll be wound up, they’ll be taken into ownership, all sorts of things.” Seeing CNN, 'One World' and Banks Collapsing in the same paragraph makes me think, 'this is their plan to centrally control the money' (and us) via a digital global currency.... Break the banks, bring in the globalist tyrants. Banks fail when democrats are in charge so the CEOs can get their bailouts. Free money opportunities.
