Despite the precautions our Holborn and St Pancras campaigning team took today, including hiring private security, moving locations and more, we did think the ‘anti-racist’ mob would somehow turn up to attack and intimidate our action day today. So we made a plan. Our campaign manager, @lewisrholmes, knew that he would be targeted again so he volunteered to leave our main group and take the protestors along with him. It worked. They followed and abused Lewis, whilst he attempted to leaflet an area away from the other campaign groups. The goons, like the thick-minded idiots they are, took the bait and hounded Lewis. That allowed the rest of our team to continue the campaigning day, which allowed thousands and thousands of leaflets to be delivered. A big thanks to Lewis, who put it all together, and a huge well done to the team who have contacted thousands of Holborn & St Pancras residents with our message. Their attack on our team has also led to massive coverage of our campaign messages on social media. It's an utter disgrace what has happened, but we will not let the mob stop us. A well deserved pint for the team.

REMINDER: They need a credible off ramp from the hyper scaling narrative they’ve been selling for months. Safety concerns are an obvious way to justify the incoming pivot. They also justify taking the whole thing into a closed “Manhattan project” type setting at the government’s expense. This justifies the incoming lockdown. As I predicted in August the scale narrative had run its course due to kimi. Hyper scaling wasn’t about genuine demand expectations. It was about winning the ai race by outspending and bankrupting your competitors. Kimi made that pointless. This is no doubt the asymmetric information Bessent has been alluding to for weeks. There’s going to be a helluva lot of liquidity freed by this move. It’s all going to go flooding into USTs. Happy D day bond guys. 👇

David Alvarado - "Cigarettes and Frustration" (2019)

$NWBO We all get the frustration. Everybody is tired. Everybody wants Linda Powers to speak. Everybody wants approval yesterday. But calling her weak… pathetic… or clueless makes no sense at all. You don’t have her background… Princeton and Harvard Law btw… her legal and finance experience… her biotech network… her years of fighting through attacks… lawsuits… dilution… regulatory delays… manufacturing hurdles… and a 15 year war to get DCVax-L across the finish line… and somehow not know what you’re doing. You may hate the silence. I hate it too! Drives me mad some days. But silence does not mean there is no strategy. Sometimes silence is the strategy. I’m on the phone often with my buddy who got me into this investment… and we sometimes have to talk each other off the ledge too. I get it. The daily micro stuff can make you crazy. But when you stop staring at the forums everyday… stop trying to decipher every theory… every delay… every negative post… and take an aerial view of what has actually been built here… the picture becomes a lot more beautiful. She kept NWBO alive when most biotechs would have been buried years ago. No money… no institutional support… nonstop attacks… and a market that treated this company like a joke. Yet here we are. Completed Phase 3 trial… published survival data… manufacturing build out… MAA under review… Sawston… Advent… commercial manufacturing readiness… leukapheresis center… Specials pathway experience… Flaskworks… Annalisa Jenkins… and way more… and potentially sitting at the doorstep of historic approval. That does not happen by accident. Maybe she is not the CEO who gives shareholders the constant updates we all wish we had. Maybe her focus has been on protecting the process instead of managing everyone’s emotions through it. But that does not mean she is stupid… weak… or clueless. My honest read… she is probably not some lightweight fraudster like bashers portray. She looks more like a stubborn… highly educated… intensely protective operator who has kept an impossible biotech alive longer than almost anyone thought possible. Does that make her a perfect public company CEO? No. Her biggest weakness is obvious… communication and shareholder confidence. But that is very different than saying she does not know what she is doing. It may mean she is playing a very careful… very disciplined… very long game. The Art of War says… let your plans be dark and impenetrable as night… and when you move… fall like a thunderbolt. That feels a lot more like Linda Powers than people want to admit. So criticize the communication. Criticize the timeline. Criticize the pain shareholders have endured. That is fair. But pretending Linda Powers is some clueless failure after dragging this company through hell and possibly to the holy land is ridiculous. At this point… you either believe there is a strategy behind the silence… or you don’t. Be patient or sell. It really is that simple.
