Why I went to Davos

Dear Fellow Patriot, As you may have heard, last Thursday, I spoke before the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland. I’m surprised that the global elites invited me in the first place—and after my remarks, I’m sure they won’t invite me back anytime soon. But I accepted the invitation to walk into the belly of the globalist beast to represent you. For too long, the elites of the World Economic Forum have told us that open borders and illegal immigration are okay. That public safety isn’t a problem in big American cities. That we have this existential crisis with so-called climate change. But that is not reality. [And I told them that directly.]() They invited me on a panel to explain what to expect from a Republican administration. On your behalf, I told them that the next conservative president will make a list of every policy that’s ever been proposed at the World Economic Forum—and burn it. It’s laughable that the World Economic Forum claims to protect liberal democracy. And that the word “dictator” would come up on the panel not in reference to the global elites, but to former president Donald Trump. These self-appointed elites don’t respect our values or our freedom because it undermines the accretion of their power. They don’t care what Americans or free people around the globe care about: securing our borders, decreasing crime, fostering efficient energy production, standing up to China, and protecting our children from gender ideology. And “we the people” are tired of it. That’s why the globalists should expect a reclaiming of individual sovereignty in 2025. When conservatives take back the White House next year, the Davoisie can kiss their woke pet projects goodbye. The American people have a different mandate. In statehouses across the nation, common-sense Americans are standing up. Dozens of states have enacted laws to protect children from gender ideology, secure free and fair elections, enact school choice, and more. Now that momentum is bubbling up to the federal level as the 2024 presidential election fast approaches. Thanks to your support, The Heritage Foundation is harnessing this energy and bringing those ideas to Washington, DC with Project 2025. The fight is far from over, but I believe that we have a chance. Argentinian president Javier Milei put it best when he said that he was in power not to guide sheep, but to awaken lions. That’s what the American people want out of their leaders. Let’s make 2024 the year that marks a turning point in the revitalization of self-governance for America—and the beginning of the end for globalist tyrants. Sincerely yours, Kevin D.
