YOUR DAVOS NOTES:
DAVOS: THE SHORT VERSION
(NO FLUFF)(Sorry for the photo, nothing personal to my EU friends)
Let me give you the compressed version of what actually happened at Davos.
🇺🇸 Donald Trump
What he said (synopsis):
•America is done subsidizing bad trade deals
•Sovereignty matters… pic.twitter.com/LxPBfvCmRQ— Steven Eugene Kuhn (@StevenEKuhn) January 22, 2026
GANGSTER GOVERNMENT: Virginia’s ‘Make Fraud Legal’ Bill.
UPDATE:
Doing away with minimum sentences for rape and child pornography.
Making it impossible to verify eligibility for federal benefits.
Explicit ideological indoctrination in schools.
Anyone who thinks that in 2025 Dems are capable of moderate governance is an idiot and a mark. https://t.co/vhl1r4wj8l

IT’S A HOTEL NOT A PANOPTICON: Hotels Are Getting Rid of Proper Bathroom Doors and Guests Are Revolting: Lodgers looking for peace and quiet are struggling in the era of sliding barn doors, frosted glass panes and sometimes no separation at all.
Damn designers are full of themselves:
“So when designing this we wanted a door that allows you to both see and hear everything that’s happening behind,” comedian Becca Herries said in a sketch about sliding doors that racked up 336,000 views on TikTok. “This door is designed to either move your relationship forward or end it.”
No thank you.
HERE’S A CHANCE FOR POLAND TO DO THE FUNNIEST THING EVER AND SEIZE EAST GERMANY:
Germany is basically 2 separate countries now.
The people who lived under communism in East Germany are desperate not to do it again.
The West Germans are running head first into it. pic.twitter.com/2O54fkZdmE

SUICIDAL EMPATHY:
This woman is crying hysterically because ICE was conducting a search for two child rapists living in her neighbourhood.
That’s right.
She was crying for child rapists.This is why, as a survivor of child sexual abuse, I will never trust the left. pic.twitter.com/ffGMMO7B9M

CALL HER INSUFFERABLE: Michelle Obama Laments The Objectification of Women On Sex And Dating Podcast ‘Call Her Daddy.’ “How could a woman hold the highest seat in the government when she has less rights than half the population?”
Fewer rights, Michelle. Fewer. Not “less rights.” You went to Princeton, you should know that.
THE ENEMY WITHIN:
Melanie Yazzie, a professor at @UMNews, says that her goal is to "dismantle the United States."
She wants that to become EVERYONE's political goal.
These people want to destroy the country, and they aren't even hiding it anymore.pic.twitter.com/omWzxtmbGn

Why do Americans tolerate a higher education system that generates and hosts so many avowed enemies?

HAHA, THAT SHIP HAS SAILED, DUDE.
CA Dem Rep Dave Min defends the Clintons during contempt hearing; says that “bringing criminal charges against a former president” would be a very serious matter.

OPEN THREAD: Hump Day.
HIPPITY HOP: Blue Origin launching 6 people to suborbital space on Jan. 22. “NS-38 will be Blue Origin’s 17th crewed spaceflight to date.”
This would have been big in 2012.
NYU’S DISGRACE:
Last week, two NYPD Detectives were mistreated while seeking medical attention at NYU Langone – Cobble Hill Emergency Room after being injured on duty during the arrest of a violent perpetrator. Upon arrival, they were met with rudeness, disrespect, and a lack of basic… pic.twitter.com/HHkNR9Mm71

ADVICE FOR DOOMERS AND PANICANS FROM KURT SCHLICHTER: Being Emotionally Incontinent Does Not Help. “Normal people, queasy because law enforcement tactics employed against resisting people are aesthetically displeasing, suddenly got a good look at their future under Democrat rule. Now they understand why ICE does what ICE does.”
THE NEW SPACE RACE: Russia humiliated as launchpad explodes and SpaceX spy plot falls apart.
OUTLIVING THE RESEARCHERS WHO STARTED IT: The World’s Longest-Running Lab Experiment Is Almost 100 Years Old.
INCONCEIVABLE:
You mean Trump took two extremely opposite positions only to coerce people into giving us a deal that made us better off in the end? No way. I’ve only watched him do this publicly for like 30 years.
Good thing we all hyperventilated though. I was SURE he was gonna bomb Greenland https://t.co/PNW0DBvGSH
