			The World Economic Forum (WEF) 
			views President 
			
			Donald Trump and Russia's 
			
			Vladimir Putin as a major 
			"threat" to,
 
				
				the unelected globalist 
				organization's agenda,
				
				a Davos insider has revealed. 
			Wall Street analyst 
			
			Charles Ortel told Russian 
			outlet Sputnik that Trump, like Putin, is, 
				
				"anathema to Davos globalists." 
			Ortel stressed that the timing of
			Tucker 
			Carlson's historic interview with Putin last week was 
			perfect.
 Carlson's interview with Putin has garnered almost 200 million views 
			on X as of February 12.
 
				
				"I think it was fortunate that the interview 
				occurred well before the heart of the primary season so that 
				voters got a fair chance to see the interaction for themselves 
				in a long format forum that was, fortunately, not interrupted by 
				pesky commercials," Ortel, a corporate America/Davos insider and 
				investigative journalist, told Sputnik.
 "My guess is that getting on Putin's calendar for such a long 
				interview was a challenge, so I imagine it suited both parties 
				to have this video out well in advance of the nominating 
				convention for Democrats and of the general election," he added.
 
 "It would be great to have one or even more follow-ups in the 
				coming months."
 
 "I also think the contrast between Putin's measured and 
				thoughtful perspectives, having been a world leader for a 
				quarter century with the lack of gravitas - to put it politely 
				of Joe Biden, Kamala Harris and many others in both parties who 
				are surface-level, donor-captured, soundbite specialists was 
				stunning," Ortel continued.
 
 "This contrast was remarkable considering Biden's post-interview 
				meltdown before what remains of the 'press'."
 
			The Wall Street analyst noted that judging from 
			viewership statistics, the corporate - and political 
			donor-controlled - media is destroying itself.
 He stressed that,
 
				
				"no political interview has garnered nearly 
				as much coverage as Putin's recent sit down with Tucker." 
			Ortel continued by adding that he expects, 
				
				"it will, in the end, change the thinking of 
				most open minds." 
			Before the first-of-its-kind interview, U.S. 
			corporate media pundits and Democrat political figures urged 
			Americans to ignore Carlson's show.
 Twice-failed Democrat presidential candidate 
			
			Hillary Clinton smeared Carlson as a "useful idiot," 
			claiming that the leading independent journalist,
 
				
				"parrots Vladimir Putin's pack of lies about 
				Ukraine." 
			Clinton's remarks before the interview echoed 
			those of Soviet-era apparatchiks who said of the Nobel Prize-winning 
			novel Doctor Zhivago by Boris Pasternak: 
				
				"I haven't read Pasternak, but I condemn 
				him." 
				
 "Hillary Clinton's star set long ago while Tucker Carlson is, 
				today, one of the most followed and fair-minded voices on 
				earth," Ortel said, commenting on Clinton's rant.
 
 "Certainly,
				
				the Clinton family has much to
				fear as 5 November 2024 looms."
 
			The Wall Street analyst, who has carried out a 
			private investigation into allegations of fraud by the Clinton 
			Foundation over several years, noted that, 
				
				"there are serious unanswered questions over 
				how much foreign government and oligarch money may have funded 
				Hillary's political campaigns in 2005-6, 2007-8, and 2015-16, 
				including donations from Ukraine's [oligarch] Victor Pinchuk 
				and his wife." 
			He added that there are also, 
				
				"reasonable concerns as in the case of the 
				Bidens, that the Clinton family exploited their offices to 
				enrich themselves for decades, illegally."
 "Hillary Clinton will not be remembered well in history," Ortel 
				said.
 
 "She coasted into national politics, at first, in sympathy over 
				the Lewinsky affair as she had no actual ties to my home 
				state of New York.
 
 "As Senator, she promoted foreign adventurism in Afghanistan and 
				Iraq that clearly failed.
 
 "Meanwhile, her husband advanced a boldly crooked set of scam 
				charities we have previously covered that bilked governments and 
				other donors of billions of dollars, for which there has never 
				been honest accounting."
 
 "For a generation, globalists have protected and promoted power 
				couples like the Clintons, especially media barons," the 
				investigative journalist pointed out.
 
 "With the rise of X and evident chronic failures of unchecked 
				globalist schemes, many malefactors including the Clintons have 
				much to fear as Trump surges towards potential re-election and 
				then a necessary retribution and restoration of law and order 
				under our Constitution."
 
			Ortel argued that Putin's history lesson to 
			Carlson, tracing the causes of the
			
			Ukrainian conflict from the very 
			start, was an excellent choice given that most Americans simply do 
			not know much about Russia's history and development. 
				
				"Leaving aside the early centuries but 
				starting in 1654, when Russia had already a long history, 
				America did not even exist then and most colonial experiments 
				had been dismal failures," the Wall Street analyst stated.
 "Even so, until Biden, American presidents jealously tried to 
				defend our national borders and interests so it is entirely 
				reasonable for Russia to do so at any time but certainly from 
				1992 forward."
 
			When the Ukraine conflict erupted, the
			
			Biden 
			administration and the compliant U.S. corporate media 
			sold Americans a, 
				
				"riskless, noble cause in supporting Zelensky," 
				Ortel noted. 
			However, key facts about the conflict were 
			purposefully withheld by 
			
			the Deep State, he stressed.
 These key facts included, in particular,
 
				
					
					
					the February 2014 coup d'etat
					
					American interference in the 2014 Ukraine 
					election
					
					corruption of the Biden family 
					- and others - by Ukraine oligarchs
					
					the role of neo-Nazis
					
					the massive pilfering of aid to a 
					leadership that certainly is not "democratic," "peaceful," 
					or freedom-loving,  
			...according to Ortel. 
				
				"Putin, like Trump, is anathema to
				
				Davos globalists, but I think 
				he warmed the hearts of silent patriots in many nations who 
				deeply distrust unregulated, global bureaucracies that seem 
				mostly to protect corrupt billionaires, some of whom promoting 
				manifestly crazy policies," the WEF insider said. 
			Even though Russia has been painted by the 
			American mainstream press as a dread enemy of the US,  
				
				"the American heartland and the Russian 
				people likely share much in common and might benefit greatly 
				from clear interaction, which sanctions certainly impede," he 
				highlighted.
 "Perhaps one simple answer explains much - American and British 
				defense contractors need an enemy to promote arms sales and 
				Russia is their preferred designee.
 
 "Remember, defense contractors are among the most important 
				contributors directly and indirectly to politicians," Ortel 
				said.
 
 "Overall, one consequence of the interview is that Putin came 
				across as a thoughtful and reasonable defender of Russian 
				interests who, in my opinion, may have been too patient with 
				US-UK aggression since 1992."
 
			During the interview with Carlson, Vladimir Putin 
			wondered why the Biden administration was inflicting damage on the 
			American economy, security, and global standing.
 Ortel said those serious questions must be answered.
 
				
				"Uncertainty is a great enemy in the 
				important process of long-term investing.
 "The Biden 'administration' daily makes a mockery of domestic 
				and international law.
 
 "These 'high crimes and misdemeanors' cannot simply be washed 
				away in the 2024 election with a Trump landslide," the analyst 
				believes.
 
 "Indeed, there must be a full accounting for corruption that 
				courses through the American system and many of our NATO 
				allies."
 
			Ortel assumed that the Obama-Biden 
			"war on capitalism" that began in January 2009 is, 
				
				"chiefly responsible for destroying 
				legitimate aspirations of private sector workers and their 
				families who simply wish to sell competitive products and 
				services to the world from American platforms."
 "The bi-partisan addiction to deficit-spending and debt is 
				crippling this and future generations of Americans," he said.
 
 "But the worst damage wrought by Biden is that many now 
				correctly question who his master may be and even whether he and 
				his family actually serve America's interests."
 
			Still, one area where Ortel disagreed with Putin 
			was on the subject of China's economic growth.
 The Wall Street analyst believes that China's economy is groaning 
			under too much real and shadow debt, and he questions whether 
			capital investments seen in gross domestic product (GDP) 
			accounts are profit-making.
 
 Meanwhile, after the 2024 election,
 
				
				"America should think much more carefully 
				about our budget and capabilities for foreign entanglements 
				because, in truth, we have pressing internal issues to address 
				concerning our bloated, counterproductive domestic 
				bureaucracies," he pointed out. 
			Americans and Russians are talented and laborious 
			people who could work out solutions that would be beneficial not 
			only for their respective nations but for the whole world, according 
			to Ortel. 
				
				"On major issues particularly in math,
				science, and engineering, I believe 
				the best Russian and American minds might make major 
				breakthroughs," Ortel concluded.
 "In the near future too, I hope our people may connect directly, 
				bypassing the corrupt vested interests here in America."
