Swiss banker and World Economic Forum “agenda contributor”, Hubert Keller, is coming for your coffee. You know why. The climate agenda.
Now they’re coming for your coffee.

It will never be enough with these people. Do you put milk in your coffee? That’s a whole different battle. Cows, you know, produce methane when they fart and that’s not good for the climate. Carbon dioxide is necessary for life. Green plants feed on carbon dioxide and produce oxygen as a by-product. Yet, climate activists want to take as much carbon dioxide out of the atmosphere as possible, thinking that atmospheric carbon dioxide traps heat. That causes man-made global warning, their reasoning goes. They want to limit emissions of carbon dioxide.
One way of limiting emissions is to go after agricultural production and practices. In this case, it is the production of coffee. Keller spoke out about coffee production as a culprit in climate warming. He should pick on something else. Farmers are responsible people who conserve the land and keep it healthy to produce crops. Coffee producers are the same. I was once in Hawaii and toured a coffee plantation in Kona. That was back in the 1990s and even then a big part of the message was that it was an environmentally-friendly operation.
This guy’s tweet leads me to think about Keller speaking to the arrogant elites who wish to rule the world. There is a lot of hypocrisy among them. One example is that they preach about the use of fossil fuels, yet many of them arrive in private jets for the annual gathering in Davos. Look no further than John Kerry for extreme hypocrisy. Biden’s climate envoy lives one way while expecting regular people to live a drastically different way. Eat bugs and live without electricity, peasants.
House Republicans introduced legislation to suspend funding for the World Economic Forum.
“No funds available to the Department of State, the United States Agency for International Development, or any other department or agency may be used to provide funding for the World Economic Forum,” the bill simply reads.
The legislation was introduced by Rep. Scott Perry, R-Penn., along with others, including Tom Tiffany, R-Wis., and Rep. Paul Gosar, R-Az.
“The World Economic Forum doesn’t deserve one cent of American funding, and it’s past time we defund Davos,” Perry said in a press release.
“The Defund Davos Act would ensure that U.S. tax dollars are not funding the World Economic Forum and their reset on our way of life. I thank Congressman Perry for leading this important effort,” Tiffany said.
Sounds good to me. The annual event is a bunch of reporters among the elites who get out whatever stories the rich and powerful want to get out. The virtue-signaling is off the charts. What does it all accomplish? Nothing as far as regular Americans can see. It sounds like a luxury vacation in Switzerland. Why are American taxpayers paying the way for John Kerry and many others to go?
The Heritage Foundation president accepted an invitation to speak in a panel discussion. I don’t think those in attendance enjoyed hearing what he had to say.
Heritage Foundation President Kevin Roberts was offered a spot to participate in a panel discussing what to expect from a possible Republican presidency. He took the opportunity to criticize the WEF for supporting globalism and socialism and said that members of the next conservative presidential administration should reject all of the ideas being proposed at the WEF.
The world elites are dreading the thoughts of another Trump presidency. Maybe Mr. Keller is one of those people.
You aren’t getting my coffee, Hubert. Let’s talk about the champagne, ok?
The annual meeting of the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland, brought together 3,000 participants from around the globe. That included 1,600 business leaders, 350 heads of state and government ministers, and hundreds of academics, civil society leaders, and entrepreneurs. It was an elite affair as always, with sky-high lodging fees, champagne nightcaps, and chances to see and be seen by people holding some of the most influential jobs on the planet.
A speech by Ukraine president Volodymyr Zelenskyy was a reminder of the world’s precariousness
When we asked Paul Knopp, the CEO of KPMG US, what he came to Davos feeling most worried about, he echoed a common refrain heard in Davos this week. “Last year, for me, it would have been the economy. I’m a little more concerned right now about the number of geopolitical concerns around the world that could create shocks,” he said.
Surely the production of champagne must stop. Those grapes must help the coffee beans destroy the ozone, right? On a more serious note, the world is on fire and the elites have noticed. Too bad there isn’t a strong leader in the White House. There is concern about democracy, especially with so many regions holding elections oversea.
With elections this year in countries that are home to a combined 4.2 billion people, democratic leaders are worried about the threats of fascism, nationalism, disinformation, and other number of other risks for free societies.
“We are now reaching a watershed moment: 2024 will be the year when European countries and the EU will be in a position to decide if we want to be sovereign or not,” French president Emmanuel Macron said, addressing just one region where elections are coming up soon.
When Trump primarily focuses on the United States, he is criticized for being an isolationist. You can bet that European leaders are nervous that Trump may be moving back into the White House. They are afraid of him and he intimidates them into such moves as paying their pledges to NATO and removing the U.S. from worthless international agreements like the Paris Climate Agreement.
The House Republicans may not be successful with their legislation, especially since many lawmakers make the trip to Davos, but it’s a good idea.
