The World Economic Forum in Davos has come under renewed criticism after Greenpeace reported a sharp rise in private jet flights linked to the event over the past three years.

During the 2025 forum alone, 709 additional private jet flights were recorded at nearby airports, a 10% increase from 2024 and three times higher than 2023 levels.

Greenpeace says many of these journeys could have been made by train, calling Davos a “private jet shuttle hub.”

The findings have fuelled calls for taxing luxury aviation and the super-rich, highlighting tensions between the forum’s climate rhetoric and the environmental impact of elite travel.

🚨BEWARE: The Call Centers Are Now Using AI🚨

Now, anyone can clone any voice with AI and let it hold real conversations, with emotion, tone control, and natural flow, without a human on the other side.

Alibaba’s Qwen team just released an open-source text-to-speech model that runs locally, works on very low hardware, and does instant voice cloning.

A short voice sample is enough. You can define how it sounds, how it reacts, and how it speaks.

Businesses can now spin up unlimited “agents” that speak any language, match brand tone, never get tired, and scale instantly. That's pretty cool!!

But the dangerous part is obvious... This can be personalized, trained on a specific person’s voice, and used to call people directly, repeatedly, and convincingly.

Most people won’t fall for the first call.

👉The worst part is that it’s autonomous. They can run it nonstop, calling thousands of people at once, adapting the script in real time, and looping until someone eventually slips.

Time for someone to invent an AI call blocker.😉

⏰A former World Bank president has sounded the alarm⏰

⏰A former World Bank president has sounded the alarm, revealing that the Federal Reserve has lost over a trillion dollars—and counting—turning it into nothing more than a massive hedge fund for the rich and powerful.

He claims the Fed is borrowing money from banks at 5.4% interest, then pouring it into government bonds, creating the illusion that the government’s financial situation is better than it actually is.

He warns that this scheme isn’t just limited to the U.S.—it’s happening across central banks worldwide.

A new model in Payments is emerging: 𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐒𝐭𝐚𝐛𝐥𝐞𝐜𝐨𝐢𝐧 𝐒𝐚𝐧𝐝𝐰𝐢𝐜𝐡

Here's how it works:

For decades, international payments have moved through a network of correspondent banks.

Each transaction passed through multiple intermediaries, from local to international correspondents and back again, taking days and incurring fees at every step.

This system worked, but it was slow, expensive, and opaque.

A new model is emerging — The Stablecoin Sandwich — where blockchain replaces those intermediary layers to enable direct, near-instant settlement.

Here’s how it works:

→ The sender initiates a transfer in fiat (for example, euros).
→ An on-ramp partner converts those euros into a stablecoin such as USDC.
→ The stablecoin moves across the blockchain, serving as the settlement medium.
→ An off-ramp partner converts the stablecoin into local currency (such as pesos or reais).
→ The recipient receives funds in their local account, often in under 30 minutes.
→ This hybrid flow combines the compliance and familiarity of traditional finance with the efficiency, ...

International Public Notice: Accounting for World Gold Reserves
Remember how U.S. Troops were ordered into Libya all of a sudden?  How Gaddafi was captured and murdered?  And then everything went silent?  It was all  "Tut, tut....move along, nothing to see here."? 
 
After years of being a critic of the Western Colonial Empire, Gaddafi went too far.  He suggested that African countries do something that America once did --- form a Union, issue a single gold-backed currency, and act in mutual self-interest.  
 
This African Union would be an instant economic juggernaut, enabling African countries to engage their own resources for their own benefit. 
 
Imagine that?  
 
That's why Muammar Gaddafi was murdered, disrespectfully, in the street, while cameras rolled. 
 
And now, Gaddafi's son is asking the leaders of the "beneficial humanitarian intervention" led by NATO and France, where Libya's gold went?  
 
 
And guess what --- the "heroes" purportedly liberating Libya -- liberated their gold instead
 
 
And they left Libya in ruins.  No grand humanitarian rescue, no, nothing like that.  Orphaned children, widows, destroyed infrastructure, instead. 
 
But Europe's central banks mysteriously balanced their books and looked healthy again. 
 
 
The strange thing, folks, is not that the European central banks would use unknowing mercenaries to attack Libya and steal gold belonging to comparatively poor people
 
The same NATO players and the same unwitting mercenaries had already done the same thing, seven years before, in Iraq
 
Iraq's gold reserves were stolen, too, but nobody talks about that. 
 
We are left with the ironic flip-side of the joke.  
 
Iraq's "weapons of mass destruction" were right under our noses, hidden in plain sight.  Oil resources could be "weaponized" in a commercial war designed to end the Petrodollar monopoly.  Gold resources could similarly be deployed.  
 
So NATO and G.W. Bush decided to steal these "weapons of mass destruction" and benefit themselves.
 
Our soldiers and sailors didn't know that they were being used as cheap mercenaries engaged in illegal and immoral asset confiscation.  They thought they were part of an honest military.  They were told they were defending against a threat to their country. 
 
We didn't say they weren't smart.  We said they weren't told. 
 
The vast majority of U.S. troops in Iraq and Libya, both, didn't know their actual role in either one of these attacks.  
 
Just like they didn't know that the artillery shells they were using were full of deadly nuclear waste that was polluting the whole region --- and serving to kill them, too, via exposure to this unseen pollution. 
 
They just tried to use other mercenaries to steal Burkina Faso's gold, too.  It didn't work out so well.  
 
 
Things only got worse.  France wasn't about to give up its colonial holdings in the Sahel region of West Africa without a fight.  So they sought to encircle Burkina Faso and bully their way back into power that was never theirs.  Vladimir Putin, not NATO, stood firm, making it impossible for France to force either regime change or direct military intervention
 
 
Colonialism in Africa, including the modern form of Corporate Feudalism, has been a plague, a constant pernicious asset stripping operation that has sought to cripple the economies of entire nations and reduce African countries to a condition of dependence and helplessness, a circumstance which has consigned generations of African people to poverty, pollution, and loss of self-determination. 
 
We applaud the Sahel for its determination to live free, to use its resources first and foremost for the benefit of their own people, and to choose their own future.  
 
We wish the nations of the Sahel peace and plenty and self-determination. We shame those governments -- aka, commercial mercenary corporations -- in Europe which have mercilessly and recklessly preyed upon nations and people who have only sought fairness and respect, reliable business partners, and a future worth living for.  They have nobody to blame, and that includes blaming Vladimir Putin. 
 
They have, and they have always had, the option of treating the nations of the Sahel as equals, owed care, consideration, respect, and fairness.  It's their fault and on France's account, that they have not updated and corrected their predatory behavior.

🧬China’s Birth Slump Signals Deepening Structural Crisis: Analysts🧬
Experts warn the birth slump threatens China’s future workforce, growth prospects, and social stability.
 
China’s plunging birth rate is increasingly being viewed by analysts as a point of no return—one that reflects not only changing social attitudes but the long-term consequences of decades of state control over family life.
 
“The pace of the decline is striking, particularly in the absence of major shocks,” Yue Su, principal economist at the UK-based Economist Intelligence Unit, told CNBC.

 

Rapid Demographic Contraction

While falling birthrates are a common phenomenon in many countries, analysts say China’s trajectory stands apart in both speed and scale.

China’s National Bureau of Statistics (NBS) announced on Jan. 19 that the country recorded just 7.92 million births in 2025, down from 9.54 million in 2024 and the lowest number in decades. China’s total population fell for the fourth consecutive year, shrinking by 3.39 million people—the steepest annual decline since population contraction began in 2022.

The collapse in births follows decades of the Chinese regime’s brutal one-child policy from 1979 until 2015, using heavy fines, job penalties, and even forced abortions to limit family size. The policy succeeded in slowing population growth but also accelerated population aging.

Even after Beijing formally ended the policy—and later allowed two and then three children—birthrates continued to fall, showing that long-term social and economic effects have proven difficult to reverse.

Chinese state-controlled media NetEase reported China’s total fertility rate (TFR) was below 1 birth per woman for 2025, citing China-based scholars.

The World Factbook by the United States’ Central Intelligence Agency showed a slightly higher figure of 1.2, still among the lowest in the world. By comparison, the United States’ TFR was at 1.63 for 2025, well above China’s level, though still below the population replacement rate of 2.1.

The World Economic Forum (WEF) estimated in 2022 that in the late 1980s, China’s total fertility rate—the average number of children born to each woman—stood at 2.6, and since 1994, China’s fertility rate has hovered between 1.6 and 1.7, before falling to 1.3 in 2020 and dropping further to just 1.15 in 2021.

This marks the first instance of sustained population decline in China outside of the three famine years since the founding of the People’s Republic in 1949.

National Bureau of Statistics data show that China’s natural population growth rate in 2025 fell to negative 2.41 per thousand, while the death rate rose to 8.04 per thousand, the highest level since 1968.

U.S.-based China current affairs commentator Wang He described the pace of decline as historically rare.

“In 2016, China had more than 17 million newborns,” Wang told The Epoch Times. “Ten years later, births have fallen by more than 10 million. A collapse of this magnitude in peacetime is extremely uncommon in world history.”

 

Questions Over the Numbers

Some analysts believe the official figures may still overstate the true number of births.
 
Skepticism over China’s population data has long existed. The 2020 national census reported a population of 1.41 billion, but many observers suggested the figure may have been inflated, citing earlier local surveys that had already shown negative population growth.

Japan-based Hong Kong journalist and economist Joseph Lian said in a 2023 interview with The Epoch Times that the Chinese regime’s population data manipulation likely began as early as the 1990s.

“By the mid-2000s, it became clear that population growth was losing momentum, and large-scale data inflation began,” he said.

According to Wang, the Chinese regime controls multiple parallel datasets—including the public security bureau’s household registration records, hospital birth data, and primary school enrollment figures—none of which are publicly accessible.

“How much the data is adjusted, and to what extent, outsiders can only guess,” he said.

Why Young Chinese People Aren’t Having Children

China’s demographic crisis is unfolding despite years of regime efforts to encourage childbirth. Authorities have rolled out birth subsidies, simplified marriage registration, extended maternity leave, and even imposed a 13 percent tax on condoms. None of it has reversed the trend.
 
The CCP’s propaganda mouthpiece China Central Television reported that the number of registered marriages in China in 2024 fell by nearly 20 percent, the largest drop on record. About 6.1 million couples married that year, down from 7.68 million in 2023. Marriage rates in China are widely viewed as a leading indicator for future birth trends.

For many young Chinese people, the barriers to starting a family remain overwhelming.

Chinese state media China National Radio cited a 2024 survey by the YuWa Population Research Institute that found that the average cost of raising a child to high school graduation in China is about 538,000 yuan ($75,000), more than six times China’s per-capita gross domestic product (GDP). In major cities, the cost is even higher. By comparison, the figure is about 4.1 times per-capita GDP in the United States and 4.26 in Japan.

Researchers at nonprofit research organization RAND have suggested that China’s falling fertility reflects “unmet fertility intentions,” not a lack of desire for children.

“China’s pronatalist policies have not reversed fertility decline or increased population growth to a sustainable rate, demonstrating the limits of state-led interventions in family decision-making,” RAND analysts wrote.

U.S.-based Chinese economist Li Hengqing noted that childlessness is often a reluctant choice.

“For average Chinese [families], having children is about lineage, emotional security, and hope,” Li told The Epoch Times. “Not having children is an extremely painful and involuntary decision.”

Wang sees the demographic collapse as a form of collective protest.

“In a sense, this is the public casting its vote,” he said. “By refusing to have children, people are expressing their anger—and their despair.”

 

Economic Consequences

Economists warn that no society has achieved sustained economic growth amid long-term population decline.
 
Research firm the Rhodium Group projected in late 2024 that China’s real GDP growth in 2025 would range between 2.5 and 3 percent, roughly half of the regime’s reported figures, reflecting mounting structural constraints.

China now faces a rapidly aging population alongside a shrinking labor force. Fewer newborns today means fewer workers tomorrow, making it harder to support an expanding elderly population and placing additional strain on an already fragile pension system.

According to the Chinese Communist Party’s State Council, by 2035, the number of people aged 60 and above is expected to reach 400 million, which will be more than 30 percent of the country’s population.

A 2019 report by the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences estimated that China’s pension reserves could be exhausted by 2035.

China’s current population trend is what demographers often describe as the “low-fertility trap.” Once fertility falls below 1.5—or even 1.4—it becomes extraordinarily difficult to raise it by even 0.3 points. China’s fertility rate is already far below that threshold.
