We have to correct our post of a few weeks ago about Klaus Schwab, the founder of the World Economic Forum who as fabled front man of high-profile commie-talk conferences and commie research has been meeting and greeting and warmly clasping the hands of foes of freedom for decades.
The investigation
In early April, we passed along the story that Schwab had escaped censure by an independent investigation—if we may use the phrase loosely enough to mean non-independent investigation—of the Forum.
This investigation, which had been launched because of Concerns, had discovered problems with how the WEF managed its affairs but no problems with the great man himself. Schwab himself was blameless. At least, said investigators, they had found no substantiation of any accusation against him. Case closed.
Except that, even at the time—well, here’s where everything began to swim and swirl and we entered a dense and sticky fog and were at grave risk of losing our footing. Although the investigation supposedly let him off the hook, Schwab nevertheless decided to hang up his hat and retire from his current post, nonexecutive chairman of the board of trustees, and from the WEF altogether. And he only 87!
Not anytime soon though. The idea was that he would take his time ambling toward the door but definitely be really gone by early 2027 at the latest. Any person forced out at such a leisurely pace must surely be an innocent man, not some kind of abuser of the power of his towering position who must be ejected forthwith. Or so the world in its benumbed confusion agreed. A graceful exit, then…
But now
Well, forget all that! He’s gone. A letter has emerged (“World Economic Forum board backs launch of independent probe into founder Klaus Schwab,” Associated Press, April 23, 2025).
The World Economic Forum…says its board has given its unanimous support for an independent investigation into allegations of misconduct by founder Klaus Schwab.
The statement from the Geneva-based think tank and event organizer late Tuesday came after a report published by The Wall Street Journal cited a whistleblower letter alleging financial and ethical misconduct by Schwab, 87, and his wife, Hilde….
In a statement sent to The Associated Press, the Forum said its board—which includes former U.S. Vice President Al Gore, Jordan’s Queen Rania and European Central Bank President Christine Lagarde as members—agreed to a decision by its risk and audit committee to open the probe.
“While the Forum takes these allegations seriously, it emphasizes that they remain unproven, and will await the outcome of the investigation to comment further,” the statement said.
The new allegations of misconduct were reported two days after Schwab suddenly decided to retire “with immediate effect.”
Of course, the WEF will probably continue to be led by people just as horrible as Schwab, just as eager to get us to accustom ourselves to bug food, deindustrialization, a Great Commie Reset of our world, and being buddies with the Chinese Communist Party.
