World Economic Forum Cancels Twitter

World Economic Forum cancels Twitter, directs followers to Chinese social media app.  

The WEF may as well be a branch of the CCP at this point. Another reason why TikTok and WeChat should be illegal in the US. 

Will be interesting to see if Bill "37 trips to Epstein Island" Gates also deletes his Twitter account. Which would amount to an admission of guilt.

Trump at Davos

Pretty extraordinary speech given by President Trump at Davos. Be sure to read the whole thing but this is the part that stood out for so many:
This is not a time for pessimism; this is a time for optimism. Fear and doubt is not a good thought process because this is a time for tremendous hope and joy and optimism and action.
But to embrace the possibilities of tomorrow, we must reject the perennial prophets of doom and their predictions of the apocalypse. They are the heirs of yesterday’s foolish fortune-tellers -- and I have them and you have them, and we all have them, and they want to see us do badly, but we don't let that happen. They predicted an overpopulation crisis in the 1960s, mass starvation in the '70s, and an end of oil in the 1990s. These alarmists always demand the same thing: absolute power to dominate, transform, and control every aspect of our lives.
We will never let radical socialists destroy our economy, wreck our country, or eradicate our liberty. America will always be the proud, strong, and unyielding bastion of freedom.

Linky Links

Stuff I found interesting or amusing and thought I'd share.

- WTF? Runner found to be hitman after his GPS watch ties him to crime scene

- Peak Chinese? China's looming crisis: a shrinking population

- I am going to randomly throw the phrase, "clean up the streets in San Francisco, they are disgusting!" in my conversations this week. Just for the hell of it.

- The world as 100 people over the past two centuries. We live in an age of abundance!

- Companies that regularly attend Davos under-perform the S&P 500 by a lot.  Go woke - go broke!

- China's economic growth last year was the slowest in 28-years. They are probably going to have to make a major trade deal with the US relatively soon.

- And speaking of China - looks like the most dangerous job in the world is to be a billionaire in China. One has been dying on average every 40 days.  Kinda scary!
