The World Economic Forum may seem like a rather dry topic, but this moment of commentary by Trump’s Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick has been making the rounds on social media and for good reason.

Lutnick is responding to a question about Trump’s interest in Greenland, but ends up offering an excellent lesson about the meaning of Trump’s ‘America First’ strategy.

Transcript via Real Clear Politics:

QUESTIONER: What I struggle more with is how you imagine others react to this. I mean, if you put yourself in the position of your Danish counterpart—who’s a proud Dane and a loyal executive of the Danish government’s position—how do you envision this going? How does this go down?

HOWARD LUTNICK: Well, I think you should start at a much higher level.

Okay. We are in Davos, at the World Economic Forum, and the Trump administration—and myself—we are here to make a very clear point.

Globalization has failed the West and the United States of America. It’s a failed policy. It is what the WEF has stood for, which is export offshore, far-shore, find the cheapest labor in the world and the world is a better place for it.

Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick was heckled by former Vice President Al Gore during a World Economic Forum event in Davos, Switzerland, on Tuesday, according to news coverage.

Gore booed Lutnick while the Commerce secretary was giving a speech at an invite-only dinner event hosted by BlackRock CEO Larry Fink, Mediaite reported on Wednesday. The report comes after Lutnick criticized Europe during his remarks, which prompted European Central Bank President Christine Lagarde to suddenly leave the dinner event, multiple outlets reported.

“I sat and listened to his remarks,” Gore said Wednesday in a statement provided to Mediaite. “I didn’t interrupt him in any way. It’s no secret that I think this administration’s energy policy is insane.”

Gavin Newsom clearly has his sights on a 2028 run for the White House. Why else would the outgoing governor of the failed state of California be in Davos this week? Yesterday, Townhall reported on how Newsom went on an unhinged rant about Donald Trump, Europe, and Greenland, and at some point he called Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent “smug.”

To that, this writer has to ask: Has Gavin Newsom met…Gavin Newsom?

But Bessent doesn’t need anyone to come to his defense. He took matters into his own hands and absolutely nuked Newsom from orbit.

Homosexual atheist Yuval Harari says AI will ‘take over religion’ during Davos speech– www.lifesitenews.com

Israeli historian Yuval Noah Harari couched a chilling prediction within a warning at the World Economic Forum (WEF) meeting in Davos, Switzerland: Artificial Intelligence (AI) will soon control not only most of the world’s legal, education, and healthcare systems, “AI will take over religion.” 

“This is particularly true of religions based on books, like Islam, Christianity, and Judaism,” the homosexual atheist claimed.  

“Anything made of words will be taken over by AI,” said Harari, so, “What happens to a religion of the book when the greatest expert on the holy book is an AI?”

THE HAGUE, Netherlands — For days it seemed there was no way out of the latest standoff between Europe and the United States: U.S. President Donald Trump insisted he must have Greenland — and would settle for nothing short of total ownership.

Even after he dropped the threat of force in a speech in Davos, Switzerland, on Wednesday, the impasse remained. Enter: Mark Rutte.

The NATO secretary-general appears to have been instrumental in persuading Trump to scrap the threat of slapping punitive tariffs on eight European nations to press for U.S. control over Greenland — a stunning reversal shortly after insisting he wanted to get the island “including right, title and ownership.”

U.S. President Donald Trump is addressing the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland, with the world watching closely after his threats of annexing Greenland, a semiautonomous territory of NATO ally Denmark.

The speech — being streamed live in this post — comes a day after world leaders and historic allies of the U.S. repudiated Trump’s threats to annex the island, and after Prime Minister Mark Carney gave a major foreign policy speech to the same venue in which he said that “the old order is not coming back.”

On Saturday, Trump said he would impose a 10 per cent import tax starting in February on goods from eight European nations because of their opposition to an American seizure of Greenland, which Trump has not ruled out seizing by force and argues the U.S. needs for “national security.”

STRASBOURG, France: EU chief Ursula von der Leyen warned on Wednesday (Jan 21) that the 27-nation bloc must move faster to boost its economy and defences, faced with a new world order defined by “raw power”.

Addressing the European Parliament, von der Leyen said Europe had to toughen up to influence the world around it – while warning the United States that strife between “allies” over Greenland would only embolden rivals of the West.

“The shift in the international order is not only seismic, but it is permanent,” she told lawmakers, citing the “volatile situation” around Greenland, but also Russia’s relentless bombing of Ukraine and tensions from the Middle East to the Indo-Pacific.

European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen called President Trump’s threat to hit eight of America’s NATO allies with tariffs over their stance on Greenland a “mistake” on Tuesday. Speaking at the opening of the Davos economic conference in Switzerland, Von der Leyen said Mr. Trump’s threat risked plunging Europe’s relations with the U.S. into a “downward spiral.”

“When it comes to the security of the Arctic region, Europe is fully committed and we share the objectives of the United States,” von der Leyen said, highlighting as an example a move by Finland, NATO’s newest member, to sell ice breakers to the U.S.

The White House notified reporters that Donald Trump would be speaking at the press briefing to discuss his accomplishments during the first year of his second administration.

Any other president might have issued a statement or gathered reporters for a press conference. Trump spent nearly two hours torturing the world with his broken and depleted mind.

This is a sample of what Trump showed the world as he read from a book to reporters and held up made up wanted posters of immigrants:

These are rough characters. These are all criminal, illegal aliens. Set. In many cases, they’re murderers, they’re drug lords, drug dealers. They’re the mentally insane. There’s some of them who are brutal killers. They’re mentally insane. They’re killers, but they’re insane. These are just in Minnesota and California.

It’s worse. In other states it’s worse. No, Minnesota, the crime is incredible. The financial crimes are incredible. And the problem is because of the agitators and insurrectionists, whatever you want, troublemakers, but they’re paid agitators and insurrectionists. Nobody talks about the fact that $19 billion at a minimum is missing in Minnesota, given to a large degree by Somalians.

The speech was delivered against a backdrop of rising geopolitical tensions between great powers like Russia, China and the United States, and as U.S. President Donald Trump threatens allies with tariffs and pushes to acquire Greenland from Denmark, a member of the NATO military alliance.

Slovak Prime Minister Robert Fico said the European Union is “not taken completely seriously” by world leaders because of its “suicidal migration policy” and “nonsense climate goals,” after a phone call on Monday with German Federal Chancellor Friedrich Merz.

According to the government’s press office, cited by the TASR news agency, Fico told Merz that he would send an open letter on Tuesday to European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen and circulate it to all EU prime ministers and heads of state, in which he would express concerns relayed to him following a meeting with U.S. President Trump at the weekend and offer solutions.

“I have proposed several solutions to the Federal Chancellor, and I hope that he will visit Slovakia soon, as he promised. We have something to talk about,” Fico said. He added that several hundred German companies operate in Slovakia and that the Slovak economy is particularly dependent on German economic development because of the high concentration of car production.
