NIO’s 900V drive system rolled off the production line Wednesday, according to the Chinese EV maker. NIO’s (NIO) “Thunder” 900V electric drive system (EDS) can add over 150 miles (255 km) with a five-minute fast charge.
First “mass-produced” 900V EV drive system?
Update: Lucid Motors reached out to Electrek to confirm that the electrical architecture of its Lucid Air stands at 924V. It has been in production since 2021, making it the first production EV with a 900V architecture. The Lucid Air can add 300 miles of range in 21 minutes. Does it qualify as “mass produced?” NIO perhaps is contending it isn’t. Regardless, there’s a new 900V system on the block.
NIO announced the milestone Wednesday after building its one-millionth EDS. NIO’s Porsche/Mercedes-rivaling ET9 premium EV will be the first to feature the new tech.
The ET9 was unveiled in December aimed at “the new generation of high-end business users.” NIO packed the luxury EV with its latest tech for a “perfect package of flagship-style exterior, spacious interior, immersive experience, efficient recharging.”
This includes the world’s first mass-produced 900V EV drive system with up to 925V, 600 kW peak power at 765A…

How A Handful Of Billionaires Created The Transgender "Movement"
I was honored to have been interviewed by Jonathon Van Maren about my research on the gender industry - Jennifer Bilek

I was honored to have been interviewed by Jonathon Van Maren about my research on the gender industry - Jennifer Bilek
First published at The European Conservative.
I first came across investigative journalist Jennifer Bilek’s work in 2020, when her essay “The Billionaires Behind the LGBT Movement” was published in First Things. It was a stunning piece—there are several journalists committed to exposing the transgender ‘movement’ (or industry, as Bilek calls it), but nobody has peeled away the façade of civil rights, pink-and-blue flags, and ‘trans kids’ like Bilek. If we had a mainstream press truly committed to uncovering and reporting the truth about the forces driving our culture today, her work would be cited by them across the board.
Bilek is an artist, activist, and investigative journalist based out of New York City, and her work has been published in Tablet Magazine, The Federalist, The Post Millennial, and elsewhere. Bilek spent her life on the Left, but now she says that she is in the “political wilderness,” reporting on the biggest cultural story of our day while progressives ignore it or cover it up. Bilek also runs the Substack Jennifer’s Newsletter and the blog The 11th Hour, where she explains her focus:
I write at the intersection of humanity, technology, and runaway capitalism. At this intersection stands transgenderism, what I believe is a glamorous ad campaign generated by elites, invested in tech and pharma, to normalize the changing of human biology.
Bilek is doing something that journalists used to do instinctively: following the money. What she has uncovered is a bombshell that reveals the extent to which the transgender phenomenon has been created by super-wealthy LGBT donors who have a dark and sinister agenda. Her journalism supplies the missing pieces needed to complete the picture of how and why the transgender movement so swiftly achieved cultural dominance. Bilek kindly agreed to an interview in which she shared what she has uncovered thus far…
Federal Reserve Refuses to Provide Records of Foreign Gold Holdings
Weeks after Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell evaded a sitting congressman’s questions about the central bank’s foreign gold holdings
By Ken Silva
Weeks after Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell evaded a sitting congressman’s questions about the central bank’s foreign gold holdings, the Fed has also declined to comply with a Freedom of Information Act request for records about such holdings.
The Federal Reserve’s lack of transparency comes amidst reports that countries are removing their gold and other assets from the U.S. in the wake of the unprecedented Western sanctions imposed on Russia over its invasion of Ukraine. According to a 2023 Invesco survey, a “substantial percentage” of central banks expressed concern about how the U.S. and its allies froze nearly half of Russia’s $650 billion gold and forex reserves.
Rep. Alex Mooney, R-W.Va., asked Powell about the matter in a December letter, only to have the Fed chair respond last month with evasive non-answers, telling him that the Federal Reserve does not own gold but holds it as a custodian for other entities—a fact that the congressman presumably already knew.
Following Powell’s evasive response, Headline USA filed a FOIA request with the Fed for records reflecting how much gold the Federal Reserve Bank of New York currently holds in its vault, as well as records reflecting the ownership stake that each of FRBNY’s central bank/government clients have in that gold. The FOIA request also sought records about the Fed’s gold holdings prior to Russia’s February 2022 invasion of Ukraine…
In Depth Q&A with Dr. Mike Yeadon
From March 2024
by Aussie17
So, a mate of mine sent me this Q&A session with Dr. Mike Yeadon recorded from the other week. It's packed with a lot of important stuff and really good info, but man, it's almost 3 hours long! With so much stuff coming at us all the time, I've gotten pretty good at watching videos super fast, like at 3x speed.
Now, if you're anything like me and finding three whole hours feels like a mission impossible, don't worry, I've also gone ahead and picked up the juicy parts, dialed up to 1.5x speed, so you can catch all the key points Mike is making without needing to clear your schedule. It's perfect for anyone trying to juggle a million things but still wants to stay in the loop.
As usual, the full 3-hour clip (1.5x speed/transcribed) is at the bottom. The full original clip is taken from Charles Kovess's Rumble page here…
Musk's Grok-1.5 AI chatbot to be available next week

March 29 (Reuters) - Elon Musk's artificial intelligence startup xAI's latest Grok-1.5 chatbot will be available on his social media platform X next week, the billionaire said in a post on X on Friday.
"Grok 2 should exceed current AI on all metrics. In training now," Musk added.
Grok-1.5, the enhanced version of its chatbot Grok, will be made available to early testers and existing Grok users on X in the coming days, xAI said in a statement on Thursday.
Earlier this month, Musk said xAI would open-source Grok, days after the billionaire sued Microsoft (MSFT.O), opens new tab-backed OpenAI for allegedly abandoning its original mission in favor of a for-profit model.
Looking to compete against OpenAI and Alphabet's (GOOGL.O), opens new tab Google, Musk had launched xAI last year…
Leaked Documents: AIPAC Israeli Lobby to Spend $100 Million on US Elections and May Draw US into War
American Prospect, Ian Carroll, and Code Pink
by American Prospect
Leaked documents show that the American Israeli Public Affairs Committee (AIPAC), an organization that lobbies US politicians for the benefit of Israel, a foreign country, plans to spend $100 million on campaign funds during this election cycle.
AIPAC (American Israeli Public Affairs Committee), an organization that lobbies US politicians for the benefit of a foreign country, Israel, plans to spend $100 million on campaign funds during this election cycle.
AIPAC is using its ongoing war against Palestinians and the threat from Hamas to call for further sanctions against Iran, potentially pulling the US into a broader regional war.
AIPAC promotes the familiar line that “Israel does not target civilians” that is contested due to the sheer number of Palestinians killed and Israeli officials’ statements of intentions to “eliminate everything.” AIPAC is also telling members of Congress that “Israel is not blocking the delivery of aid to Gaza,” and that “reports that people are starving in Gaza are false,” but evidence shows that Israelis are blocking supply trucks…
